Ch 148: The fifth Summoned Beast, the Riot Demon Armor, finally arrived at the Dragon Palace.

【Summoned Beast has been reborn】

【Summoned Beast: Mechanical Armor】

【Talent: Normal】

【Level: 1】

【Health Points: 83】

【Attributes: Strength 3, Agility 1, Constitution 2, Spirit 4】

【Talent: Parasite『Normal』】

【Skill: Fusion『Normal』LV.1】

“Mechanical Armor? Normal talent? It’s unbelievably low.”

After rebirth, all attributes of the Summoned Beast will return to their initial state.

If the Blood Clan Lord is reborn, they will become a Level 1 Bloodthirsty Bat again, with excellent talent, and only a 【Lifesteal】 talent and a 【Sonic Attack】 skill.

After the Bloodthirsty Demon Armor is reborn, its talent is directly reduced to the lowest level.

In other words, this Bloodthirsty Demon Armor was upgraded from Normal talent, rank by rank, to Rare Grade.

The process was extremely difficult; who knows how it obtained so many advancement opportunities.

Gu Chen sighed, then opened his panel and activated his talent.

During the previous battle with nearly a hundred Ghost Dragons, he had already reached Level 25, but he hadn’t paid much attention to leveling up while fighting.

【You have obtained the Dark Bloodline·First Generation】

The First Generation Bloodline can upgrade the Demon Armor to Epic Grade.

Without further ado, the First Generation Bloodline was directly bestowed upon the Mechanical Armor.

【Summoned Beast Advancement Successful】

【Mechanical Armor『Normal』→Riot Demon Armor『Epic』】

【Summoned Beast talent upgraded from Normal to Epic, receiving Attribute Feedback, Summoner’s All Attributes +10】

Oh, 10 points to all attributes, that’s a pleasant surprise.

【Summoned Beast: Riot Demon Armor】

【Talent: Epic】

【Level: 1】

【Health Points: 1980】

【Attributes: Strength 26, Agility 38, Constitution 32, Spirit 36】

【Talents: Dual Form『Epic』, Absolute Camouflage『Epic』】

【Skill I: Smelting『Epic』LV.10】

【Skill II: Transformation『Epic』LV.10】

【Skill III: Symbiotic Link『Epic』LV.10】

【Skill IV: Parasitic Plunder『Epic』LV.10】

“Dual Form, four skills!”

A look of excitement flashed across Gu Chen’s face.

【Dual Form: Riot Demon Armor can switch between Symbiotic Form and Parasitic Form. In Symbiotic Form, Parasitic skills cannot be used, and vice versa.】

【Absolute Camouflage: The Demon Armor hides all its fluctuations, becoming an ordinary armor, undetectable by mental probe skills.】

A talent that allows the Summoned Beast to change forms is extremely rare, and the inability to be detected by mental skills makes it even better.

Let’s look at the skills.

【Smelting: Riot Demon Armor can be smelted with other equipment, items, and materials to gain attribute bonuses.】

【Transformation: Riot Demon Armor can derive various forms from its components.】

【Symbiotic Link: Riot Demon Armor can provide the target with a 100% attribute enhancement and take one fatal attack for the target.】

【Note: If the Riot Demon Armor is killed by a fatal attack, it needs 24 hours to resurrect.】

【Parasitic Plunder: Riot Demon Armor parasitizes a target, seizing control of the target’s body and continuously absorbing the target’s health points until the target dies.】

“Wow, it’s only Level 1, and the skill effects are already so strong!”

Regardless of anything else, the ability to take a fatal attack for the wearer alone makes it worthwhile.

Gu Chen summoned the Riot Demon Armor. Like the Bloodthirsty Demon Armor before, black mist swirled within the armor, containing a faint consciousness.

This is the Riot Demon Armor’s new consciousness after the original one was eradicated.

Gu Chen moved his mind, and the Riot Demon Armor entered Symbiotic state, its parts flying towards him.

With a clang, he was covered from head to toe by the Riot Demon Armor.

The armor gleamed with a metallic luster, adorned with mysterious dark gold patterns, exuding an overbearing and powerful aura.

Helmet, shoulder armor, chestplate… all the way to leg armor, each piece perfectly fitted his body.

Through the helmet’s cracks, Gu Chen’s gaze shot out, as brilliant as stars in the cold night.

At the same time, his spirit soared. Under the 【Symbiotic Link】 state, he received a 100% attribute enhancement, his attributes doubled.

An unprecedented sense of power filled every cell in his body. If he encountered a Ghost Dragon BOSS again, he could completely solo kill it.

“Too powerful! At Level 1, I’ve gained such terrifying power. If I upgrade the Riot Demon Armor to Level 24, wouldn’t the enhancement be terrifyingly strong?!”

Gu Chen moved his mind, and the armor covering his right hand rapidly changed shape, extending into a three-meter-long giant axe in an instant.

The giant axe was ferocious in shape, its black axe blade gleaming with cold light, nearly a meter long, and extremely intimidating.

“Let’s try it.”

Gu Chen turned to the tall altar beside him, swung the giant axe that was integrated with the armor, and struck it fiercely.

Boom!

The altar, its surface covered with cracks, instantly shattered into pieces, turning into a pile of ruins.

Gu Chen looked at the giant axe. Under the terrifying impact, several places on the axe blade were severely damaged.

But this giant axe was after all derived from the Riot Demon Armor, equivalent to a part of itself.

Gu Chen moved his mind, and the damaged giant axe immediately began to repair itself, quickly restoring to its original state.

“Okay, it’s only Level 1 after all. As it levels up, its output ability will definitely double and increase explosively.”

“The Riot Demon Armor is completely a melee weapon.”

Excitement shone in Gu Chen’s eyes, his heart throbbing.

Every Mage Class has a melee heart.

Moreover, the Ghost Dragon Territory has been conquered, and the next stop is the Dragon Palace. He will soon see his genius younger brother.

Revenge is best done personally.

With that done, Gu Chen put the Chaos Yuanling and the Undead Golem into his Summoned Beast Space, and collected the equipment dropped by the Ghost Dragon BOSS and the Ordinary Exotic Races one by one.

Then, he looked towards the direction he came from, and with the Riot Demon Armor’s assistance, he leaped into the air and flew away.

Yes, he flew.

For the Demon Armor race, airborne ability is the most basic movement ability, like eating and drinking.

Carrying Gu Chen in flight wouldn’t have any impact.

In mid-air, Gu Chen experienced the feeling of flight with the Riot Demon Armor’s assistance.

Strong airflow blew past him, unrestrained and unrestrained.

Second-Order Professionals flying in the air is extremely rare.

If someone saw this, they would probably be shocked and their eyes would pop out.

After meeting up with Xu Xia, Gu Chen took off the Riot Demon Armor and got into Xu Xia’s Floating Coupe.

“Here, the Dragon Core Source Crystal you wanted, I just got it from the Ghost Dragon BOSS, and it’s Epic Grade.”

“Brother Chen, thank you so much. I’ll pay you the highest market price for this Source Crystal.”

Xu Xia held the Source Crystal, his eyes filled with excitement and joy.

A Third Rank Epic Grade Source Crystal once sold for sixty million, a huge sum of money even for Xu Xia.

“It’s nothing, it’s urgent to go to the Dragon Palace.”

“I’ll lie down for a while, wake me up when we arrive.”

Gu Chen waved his hand, not particularly concerned about the sixty million.

Mainly, since entering Yinlong City, he had accumulated enough equipment. If he sold it all, it would definitely be worth hundreds of millions.

For him now, money was just a string of numbers, without much meaning.

Lying on the passenger seat, adjusting the seat to a comfortable angle, Gu Chen moved his mind, and the Replication Ring on his hand flashed a faint golden light.

【Replication Ring】

【Quality: Epic】

【Level: LV.20】

【Job Restriction: None】

【Attributes: Spirit +600】

【Effect: Replicate an ally’s talent and apply it to the user.】

【Current Talent: None】

The 24-hour interval had long passed, and the Darknight Werewolf talent on the Replication Ring had been erased.

Gu Chen pondered for a moment and used the ring to replicate the Undead Golem’s talent.

Then, a new talent instantly appeared on his talent panel.

【Unstoppable（From Equipment Effect）: When you are stationary, your defense increases by 1% per second, and your recovery increases by 1% per second. Targets within 10 meters of you suffer a 50% increase in negative effects.】

Got it!

As long as the equipment doesn’t drop, he can always have this talent.

With the Replication Ring and the Medium Cloak, Gu Chen directly transformed himself into a replica of the Undead Golem.

Coupled with the Riot Demon Armor’s 100% attribute enhancement, even against Fourth-Order Professionals, he would have the upper hand.

Next, Gu Chen took out two more pieces of equipment.

One was the Star Shattering Necklace dropped by the Blazing Flame Dragon Elite he killed earlier.

【Star Shattering Necklace】

【Quality: Epic】

【Level: LV.25】

【Job Restriction: Ranged Attack Profession】

【Attributes: Strength +350, Agility +450】

【Effect: Every three ranged basic attacks will carry an additional attack, dealing the sum of the damage of the previous three ranged attacks.】

The other was the Ghost Gauntlets dropped by the Ghost Dragon BOSS he just killed.

【Ghost Gauntlets】

【Quality: Epic】

【Level: LV.25】

【Job Restriction: Ranged Attack Profession】

【Attributes: Agility +500】

【Effect: After a skill hits a target, the basic attack speed increases by 100%, and the attack range increases by 100%.】

Since the Blood Clan Lord’s promotion to Legendary Two Stars, the 【Lethal Shot】 skill effect can be applied to basic attacks, greatly increasing damage output.

And the Star Shattering Necklace can add the sum of the damage after three basic attacks, almost doubling the basic attack damage.

Coupled with the 100% attack speed and 100% attack range provided by the Ghost Gauntlets, the Blood Clan Lord’s combat power has been significantly increased.

After giving the two Epic Grade pieces of equipment to the Blood Clan Lord, Gu Chen turned to the Riot Demon Armor he had just taken off.

The Riot Demon Armor was “sitting” in the back seat, its parts connected by flowing black mist, looking like a black shadow wearing armor.

A gleam of anticipation flashed in Gu Chen’s eyes. He took out a dagger from his personal space and placed it in front of the Riot Demon Armor.

At the same time, he mentally gave the Riot Demon Armor an instruction: Smelt.

Almost at the same time, the Riot Demon Armor extended its steel-colored gauntlet, grasped the dagger, and a crack opened in its chestplate, opening to the sides with a clicking sound.

“What’s that sound?”

Xu Xia was startled by the noise, thinking that there were foreign races attacking outside, and instantly pushed the coupe to its limit speed.

Hurriedly glancing back, he saw the Riot Demon Armor’s chestplate wide open, revealing the flowing black mist inside.

“It’s nothing, it’s the Summoned Beast,” Gu Chen replied, and Xu Xia’s expression calmed down.

At the same time, the dagger was sent into the chestplate by the Riot Demon Armor, and the black mist suddenly glowed with dark light.

In just a few breaths, the dagger vanished.

【Smelted Shaolan’s Blade, Strength +9】

Unbelievable!

Just smelting equipment can increase attributes, without even fighting monsters?

That was a Rare Grade weapon. This time, Gu Chen took out a Rare Grade shield from his personal space.

They couldn’t be sold on the trading platform anyway, so feeding them to the Riot Demon Armor wasn’t a waste.

The steel gauntlet grabbed the shield and, without hesitation, sent it into the black mist in its chest.

The black mist glowed with dark light, and after a few breaths, the shield disappeared.

【Smelted Round Shield, Constitution +6】

Gu Chen didn’t stop. He took out a Summoning Skill Book, the one Liang Yi had given him earlier, which he hadn’t used yet.

The skill book was directly thrown into the chestplate, and the black mist glowed with dark light again.

【Smelted Summoning Skill Book, Spirit +8】

Gu Chen was overjoyed. It seemed that smelting different equipment would yield different attributes.

Although it only increased a few points of attributes at a time, it didn’t seem like much, but Gu Chen’s personal space was filled with a lot of equipment.

He had collected a lot of equipment along the way to Yinlong City. He had planned to keep them and sell them on the Professional Trader Platform after leaving.

Now it seems unnecessary.

Can money buy this kind of permanent attribute?

Yes, but at a huge price.

To casually increase attributes by smelting a few pieces of equipment like this, and permanent attributes at that, is something other Professionals wouldn’t even dare to dream of.

Gu Chen glanced at his personal space. There were many idle pieces of equipment, more than a hundred, enough to increase the Riot Demon Armor’s four-dimensional attributes to over 200.

At this thought, a strong excitement flashed in Gu Chen’s eyes.

Level 1 Summoned Beast, four-dimensional attributes exceeding 200. If this were spread, it would shatter many people’s worldview.

After that, Gu Chen didn’t idle, feeding almost all the idle equipment in his personal space to the Riot Demon Armor.

……

“Brother Chen, we’re here,” Xu Xia’s voice came from the front.

Gu Chen turned his head and looked through the window, just able to see a tall and majestic building standing not far ahead.

In the plaza in front of the Dragon Palace, Professionals who had rushed from all directions gathered.

Most of them were in a sorry state, their equipment damaged, and some even had injuries.

Obviously, there were no Priests, and the Healing Scrolls were used up. It’s easy to imagine how tragic their journey was.

Putting the car into his Spatial Ring, Xu Xia followed Gu Chen to the plaza in front of the Dragon Palace.

To enter the Dragon Palace, one must first queue up in the plaza, submit their Identity Plate for registration, and have their qualifications verified before being allowed to enter.

At that moment, a tall and strong figure shot out from the Dragon Palace and instantly appeared in front of Gu Chen.

It was Ling Feng, the Five-Star General of the Eastern Continent Military District.

“Gu Chen, you arrived at Yinlong City only one day ago and are already at the Dragon Palace? This is far beyond my expectations.”

“Come, I’ll take you in to register your qualifications.”
