Chapter 887 - 839: The Church Town Farmwoman
As Da Fei stepped out of the barracks, Billbo greeted him from afar: "Lord City Lord, the equipment you requested is ready!"
Da Fei hurried forward: "Thank you, everyone!"
Will chuckled and sighed: "If we only look at the output and not the quality, it’s not really much of a hassle. Please take a look, City Lord."
With that, a piece of equipment attribute box popped up, revealing a piece of red leather armor with an unadorned but rugged appearance, featuring the distinct style of the Beastman, in front of Da Fei’s eyes.
—Earth Dragon Blood Full-body Battle Armor: A dragon skin battle armor soaked in Dragon Blood, troop equipment. Defense +15, Physical Damage -1, Flame Earth Magic Damage -10, upgradable. Equipment requirements: large-size human-shaped troops, Master Level "Equip Troops" skill.
Da Fei’s eyelid twitched in surprise, this is the troop equipment crafted using top-grade materials!
Ordinary Angels only have a Basic Defense of 30 points, adding 15 points of defense with just one armor is a 50% increase, which is a significant enhancement. Furthermore, it has damage immunity attributes that align perfectly with dragon skin! For high defense and high recovery troops, 1 point of damage immunity nearly assures dominance over 0-level troops, 1-level troops, and the legendary mouse swarm, bee swarm, etc., known as "Super Soldiers"!
And more importantly —
Da Fei exulted, "Mr. Will, this armor can be upgraded too?"
Will smiled, "Yes indeed, the construction period requested by City Lord was rather tight. But rushing it is useless; the Dragon Blood must fully permeate the armor to further enhance its attributes, which definitely cannot be achieved in one day. In other words, this armor is essentially a semi-finished product, so let’s make do with it for now, and after a few months when the Dragon Blood has fully permeated, I can continue to upgrade it for you."
Ah, now I see! It truly is top-tier battle armor! Da Fei cheerfully said, "Thank you so much, Mr. Will — by the way, how should we settle the bill?"
Will chuckled, "There are two options: one is to exchange it for Demon Essence, and the other is to exchange it for Divine Realm Merit Points. City Lord, having abundant merits, has no worry about not being able to pay, so feel free to use it first. After all, this armor isn’t a complete product."
Da Fei was surprised, "Could it be that I can pay on credit now?"
Will laughed, "As the City Lord of Divine Punishment City, is it not normal for you to have credit privileges?"
Da Fei couldn’t help but chuckle! Indeed, these are the privileges of being a City Lord player! As the City Lord of Radiant City, I’ve already racked up millions in credit.
Just then, the pharmacy store owner, Reilly, burst out laughing: "Clearly, you haven’t decided how much this thing is worth."
Billbo also chimed in, "Master, after all, these materials are provided by Lord City Lord, at most we’re just charging a processing fee. Besides, Master also gained considerable forging experience from crafting this equipment, so we shouldn’t charge Lord City Lord excessively!"
Will coughed dryly, "Us techies, can we not talk about money? It’s too mundane."
Reilly erupted in laughter, "Exactly, mundane!"
Darn it! After all this commotion, maybe they won’t even charge me! Da Fei was overjoyed, "Military urgency demands that I will not hold back, thank you for your strong support, Mr. Will!"
Will smiled, "You should also thank Miss Reilly, she’s been busy the whole time!"
Reilly smiled, "City Lord, under normal circumstances, Dragon Blood is difficult to use directly, but with the aid of Blood Bottles as Divine Artifacts, its effects can be greatly amplified, so I made a tiny modification to your Abyss Blood Bottle, or rather, invented a new method of use."
—System Prompt: You have received the improved "Infusible Abyss Blood Bottle" by Pharmacy Store Owner Reilly, you have obtained 5 bottles of "Dragon Blood Essence Potion."
—Infusible Abyss Blood Bottle: Divine Artifact, Accessory, all troops’ Life Value +3 points, use once to restore up to 25% of the hero’s troop Life Value, the more troops, the lesser the recovery effect. Can only be used once per day.
Improved Usage: Can infuse one bottle of "Dragon Blood Essence Potion" in the Abyss Blood Bottle, adding one extra use, meanwhile, the troop Life Limit recovery can reach up to 35%, and grants additional special skills after consuming Dragon Blood. Dragon Blood’s special effects include Berserk, Dragon Slayer Strike, Crushing Strike, Tear Strike, Shattering Strike, etc.
Staring at the newly added improved usage, and into the bag where 5 new bottles of boiling potions appeared, Da Fei was stunned, "So, this essence potion can be used as ammo for the Abyss Blood Bottle, originally usable once per day, now can be used more times?"
Reilly smiled, "Yes, as ammo, but not just one extra use, rather 5 extra uses. If the Warrior encounters exceedingly tough battles, you can consecutively use 5 bottles of these potions to turn the tide of battle. Of course, these 5 bottles of Dragon Blood Essence are incredibly precious, I’m uncertain how many more essence the inventory can produce, please use them sparingly."
Turn the tide? These cluttered Dragon Blood special effects are practically the extension of the Divine Artifact Ferocious Teeth, it’s like a God Slayer mode! For slaying gods, aren’t 5 bottles far from enough? You’ll need at least 500 bottles!
Da Fei happily nodded repeatedly, "Understood, thank you, Miss Reilly! By the way, if the Dragon Blood runs out, can we replenish it with the blood of other powerful beings?"
Reilly shook her head: "It’s hard to say, as Dragon Clan’s blood naturally has strong recovery effects, and there’s even the myth of bathing in dragon blood to gain an Undying Body. Dragon blood is a precious material compatible with any Blood Bottle. As for the blood of other creatures, it’s highly likely to pollute the Blood Bottle and lead to the Divine Artifact’s scrapping, so Lord City Lord should not attempt it lightly."
So that’s how it is. Da Fei immediately thought of the Hydra corpse in the Flying’s Holy Vine Space, and continued to ask, "What about Hydra’s blood?"
Reilly shook her head and smiled, "Although Hydra’s recovery ability surpasses that of the Dragon Clan, it is also famous for its Hundred Poison Blood, where its poisonous blood pollutes rivers and desolates land. If its toxins can’t be separated from the blood, it certainly can’t be used, and even gods probably can’t separate its toxins. So, let me add, the Poison Dragon’s blood is an exception."
Da Fei nodded, "Thank you, Miss Reilly, for your guidance."
Now that everything at Divine Punishment City is finally settled, it’s time to hit the road.
Da Fei armed the first batch of 34 pieces of equipment to Elifel and the 34 people in the barracks, then the whole army transformed!
Amidst the golden light and blurred figures, 34 female farmers appeared, wearing rough cloth skirts, aprons, and dustproof headscarves...
Da Fei was stunned on the spot! Damn, it’s the standard farm chicken-feeding woman look, isn’t it too rustic? Couldn’t they upgrade the outfits to, say, noble maid uniforms? Well, it’s fine, angels are not rustic, have a battle power of 5, and being too flashy isn’t good either.
Teleport, let’s go!
——System Prompt: Attention! The Divine Punishment City Teleportation Array does not generally support teleportation for non-Crusader units... This teleportation will consume 8,633 Divine Realm Merit Points, do you wish to proceed?
Oh my god! I’m using all my merit on teleporting! If it were a regular player, wouldn’t they cry? No time to waste, hurry up!
In a flash of light, Da Fei’s entire group appeared in the rear courtyard of the Saint Paul Knight Order. This time, Da Fei planned to surprise the Blood Sea Royal Family, so he won’t be parading through Saint Paul City with flair. Previously, he had already swaggered through the streets with a group of female Demons, sparking forum speculation for days. This time, let’s avoid exposing the Angel Army’s disguise repeatedly.
Thus, Da Fei used the rear courtyard’s teleporter to divert to a Church Town. Church Town is only accessible to devoted residents recognized by the Holy Court, the Teleportation Array is not open to regular players and does not connect with regular worldly cities. After obtaining the Great Crusader status, the Archbishop unlocked access to all Church Towns for him.
Last time, Da Fei avoided being scrutinized by detouring through this town, so this time, he’s using the usual method to bypass scrutiny again. Additionally, Leader-level troops have the advantage of independent expedition, so let’s have them independently leave town for a nearby worldly city, and then teleport back to Elorin. As for teleportation costs, it’s deducted from the player by the system, so no worries about the troops lacking money.
And the troops returning to the city independently are automatically stored in the system barracks, where unit management occurs in the system backend, invisible to players. Hence, suddenly having dozens of farmwomen appear on Da Fei’s ship would be enough to surprise Blood Sea Wave!
Heh, I’m going to sneak into the city quietly, no sudden movements!
Just as Da Fei’s entire group appeared in the Church Town Teleportation Array Square, the church guards beside the array suddenly spoke: "Praise the God! I’m so lucky, I actually saw the legendary warrior Da Fei!"
Da Fei was immediately stunned, what kind of show is this?
At this moment, the NPC residents in white clothes on the square also gathered forward in surprise: "Really! He is the warrior Da Fei, who shook the hell by slaying demons!"
Oh my god! No need to say, it must be triggered by my high world reputation!
Sure enough, an NPC priest in the crowd rushed forward and asked, "Warrior, you must be sent by God to help us solve our difficulties, right? The cemetery of the small town church has been robbed by unknown, powerful Dark Creatures, we can hardly cope. Please help us, Warrior!"
——System Prompt: You received the mission commission "The Powerful Grave Robber" from Saint Fara in the Church Town, will you accept?
Before the words were finished, the guard of the Teleportation Array quickly added: "Warrior, your arrival is perfect, our mayor is in big trouble. If you have the chance, please visit him in the administrative hall, your troops are so powerful, there will be absolutely no problem."
Da Fei was in distress all over the place! Indeed, with high reputation, tasks come running at me without needing to seek them myself! Of course, I won’t accept!
Da Fei repeatedly waved his hands to back off quickly: "Sorry, everyone, I have more important missions on me, I’ll return when I’m free in the future."
Everyone couldn’t help but express disappointment: "May the glory of God protect the warrior in quickly completing the mission..."
Just as Da Fei walked out of the crowd, a young farmwoman NPC, dressed in a rough cloth skirt and apron with a dustproof scarf on her head, stood silently in front of Da Fei, holding a large basket full of wine and fruits.
In that instant, Da Fei’s eyes nearly popped out of his head!
