Chapter 56: The Evil Demon Armor
The Demon Sheepman Armor after synthesis is far more powerful than the Demon Sheep Armor.
It’s not about the strength of the armor, but the internal amplification.
The Demon Sheep Armor is still just a simple armor, the amplification is more like some kind of enchanted magic, the higher your own attributes, the better it performs.
The Demon Sheepman Armor is different. The inside is almost like a living creature, covered with turquoise veins and blood-red muscle bundles. There are also gland-like organs constantly squirming, and a transparent, colorless mucus is secreted inside. The blood-red eyes on the helmet reveal an evil will.
It’s freaking alive!
Owen could feel the Demon Sheepman Armor’s craving for flesh and blood, not to mention wearing this armor is like crawling into the abdominal cavity of some creature. Even if there was no odor, he didn’t plan to try using it.
In addition, the external shape of the Demon Sheepman Armor is too evil.
If the Demon Sheep Armor still has a strong sheep style, somewhat similar to the black-painted Aries Gold Saint Cloth, especially the huge horns across the shoulders.
Then the Demon Sheepman Armor can only be said to be pure demon style, not to mention its sharp edges, it also exudes an evil aura everywhere. It belongs to the kind that if seen by a righteous character, they would definitely chop it twice before crushing its bones and scattering its ashes.
Imagine yourself wearing the Demon Sheepman Armor, leading a group of monsters under your command, and then showing off the dungeon. No one would believe you if you said you weren’t a dark force.
Now it’s settled. He is the glorious and noble Lord in front of the adventurers, and he is the evil and cruel Dungeon Demon King when facing the invasion of evil forces. Who dares to fight him for territory!
As for the Demon Sheepman Armor, as long as he doesn’t wear it, Owen is quite satisfied with it. It’s just that the name doesn’t sound good, so he removed one word and named the new series the Demon Series.
Although the Demon Series is far stronger than the Demon Sheep Series, the evil aura is too strong. Unless he plans to appear as a villain in the future, it’s best not to use it normally. Besides, the inside is too disgusting.
So after forging a Demon Sword to complete the set, Owen chose to seal it on the third floor of the dungeon, and then find a way to strengthen the initial Demon Sheep Series.
First is the material. The special feature of the Hero Equipment, as the main body of the synthesis, is not its hardness. Therefore, its defense is only equivalent to that of fine plate armor.
If it were an ordinary world, this strength would be enough. Unfortunately, this world is not ordinary, so it must be strengthened.
The strengthening of the Hero Equipment is very simple. Just fuse the same type of equipment, and it can be fused up to three times.
Actually, each fusion is the main material needed for the synthesis of the next stage of the Demon Lord Armament, and the third time must be fused with the Hero’s Heart. That is to say, a maximum of three pieces of Hero Equipment and a Hero’s Heart are fused together. This is the upper limit of the game, and also the upper limit of the Synthesis Furnace.
Owen hadn’t exchanged for the Hero’s Heart before because the Hero’s Heart, worth twenty Progress Points, is not cheap. In addition, he didn’t know what the Hero’s Heart was for, so he never exchanged for it.
This time, he planned to strengthen the Demon Sheep Armor to the limit, and the Hero’s Heart was essential. At the same time, he wanted to see where the limit of the Synthesis Furnace was.
In fact, the limit of the Synthesis Furnace is not as difficult to touch as imagined. As a product exchanged for twenty Progress Points, the powerful function of the Synthesis Furnace is more aimed at the Hero Equipment and monsters from the same game. Even so, to break through the limit still requires the special material, Hero’s Heart, as a point of enlightenment.
In addition, although the Synthesis Furnace also has a magical effect on ordinary materials, the upper limit is not as high as imagined. This obviously limits Owen’s future performance. However, for the current upper limit of Progress Points he has, the Synthesis Furnace is still enough.
After synthesizing the two newly exchanged Hero Armors with the original Demon Sheep Armor, the formed Demon Sheep Armor became very heavy, giving a feeling of evolving from plate armor to power armor.
Actually, the feeling is not wrong, because Owen really borrowed part of the puppet’s structure and used it on the new Demon Sheep Armor. As long as an intelligent core and energy core are added, this thing can move on its own.
But it is not easy to achieve this step. Owen only accidentally discovered that his psychic power could cooperate with the Synthesis Furnace for more detailed operations when he repeatedly fused the Demon Lord Armament before.
It is not easy to influence the synthesis inside the Synthesis Furnace through psychic power across the furnace, not to mention he has to persist until the synthesis is completed.
As a mold or framework, the psychic power will be consumed during this process, causing him to be mentally exhausted for several days before he can recover.
But the good thing is that this part of the psychic power did not disappear, but integrated into the synthesized item, giving him a high affinity for the synthesized item. Otherwise, the Demon Armor would not only be disgusting, but also quite dangerous.
Later, in Owen’s continuous research, he mastered the ability to shape puppet mechanisms through the Synthesis Furnace, and applied it to the enhanced version of the Demon Sheep Armor.
Of course, with Owen’s current psychic power, he still can’t directly synthesize more complex structures, such as a mechanical spine. Therefore, on this basis, he successively integrated the mechanical spine, intelligent core, energy core, magnetic mushroom, and finally the blood-red Hero’s Heart gem.
It was also at this time that Owen understood the function of the Hero’s Heart. Similar to a simplified Philosopher’s Stone, it can completely integrate all items and functions, and at the same time avoid the influence of the Demon Lord Armament on the user’s emotions to a certain extent. This is why the Demon Lord Armament needs the Hero’s Heart in the final strengthening, and it is also the key to the evil aura of the Demon Armor.
Although Owen has the Demon Lord Aura and will not be polluted by the demonic transformation of the Demon Lord Armament, as a demonic item full of negative energy, the negative impact on the mind and emotions is still unavoidable.
Spring outing in sunny weather and walking in mud in rainy weather, the mood must be different. You can adjust yourself for a short time, but after a long time, you can’t help but be depressed.
Fortunately, the proportion of monsters in the Demon Sheep Armor has been decreasing during the continuous strengthening process. The final Demon Sheep Armor has become a low-key and luxurious metallic gray, which looks much more pleasing to the eye.
In addition to the color, other aspects have also changed a lot, such as the height increased to two meters, and the weight exceeding half a ton, etc.
To be honest, if there was no exoskeleton frame supported by the puppet structure, wearing this thing would really kill people. If the helmet is worn crookedly, the neck would be broken.
But with the exoskeleton frame, plus the fused mechanical spine, intelligent core, and energy core, even without a wearer, the Demon Sheep Armor also has the ability to move independently. Once worn, it is even more powerful.
This is not the real ability of the Demon Sheep Armor, its internal structure is what amazes Owen.
Compared with the disgusting biological tissue inside the Demon Armor, although there are similar biological tissues inside the Demon Sheep Armor, it does not appear disgusting.
Countless tough fibers form muscle bundles like rubber, crisscrossing and covering the internal space of the armor. It does not look like a creature, but more like a bio-synthetic material, which has a good anti-collision and shock absorption effect.
And this is just the most basic function. When Owen really put it on, he personally felt the function of this layer of biological tissue.
