Global Lord: Start with Divine Favor

Chapter 928 198: The Armory and Burton's Transformation (2)

"Great nation treasures, truly the heritage jewels of the territory."

Lin Rui was increasingly astonished, a Divine Artifact?

Burton can create a Divine Artifact now?

Lin Rui remembered that before he participated in the Plane War, Burton could only create Epic-level equipment, and that too was based on luck.

In this short period, being able to forge a Legendary Weapon was already very rare, and now he can forge Divine Artifacts?

Audrey's eyes also sparkled as she held Lin Rui's arm and said, "Really? Has Burton progressed so quickly? It's unbelievable."

Lin Rui was also at a loss momentarily, so he said to Natasha, who was standing aside, "Go and bring Burton out."

Natasha, with her rich wine-red wavy hair, exuded both charm and heroism, filled with an authoritative sister-like style. She had recently wanted to find an opportunity to team up with Audrey to challenge this boss, Lin Rui.

She moved swiftly and quickly returned with Burton to the brightly lit hall of the armory.

Upon seeing Lin Rui, Burton's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "Lord, has your Plane War finally ended?"

I've been back so long, and you knew nothing?

However, Lin Rui didn't say much; knowing that he had participated in the Plane War was already a valuable thing.

Lin Rui got straight to the point and said, "Burton, your armory has developed quite nicely."

Speaking of development, Burton immediately responded excitedly, "We owe it all to Lady Caroline's investments. Without Lady Caroline, we couldn't have achieved our current scale."

[Technological Inspiration lv4: Technology is the source of power. Caroline places great emphasis on the development and research of technology. She believes that only through continuous technological progress can the empire maintain its competitiveness on the world stage. Therefore, under the promotion of the Internal Affairs Saintess, the territory's technological research will greatly accelerate, and the level of technology will significantly improve, greatly enhancing the territory's economy and urban construction. Every cycle, Caroline can choose (two) research projects, inspiring the researchers' research ideas and accelerating progress by 85%.]

[Imperial Keystone lv4: Without an economic foundation, the cultural superstructure will collapse. Caroline greatly favors this statement. She believes the economy is the cornerstone of a territory or empire. Without a strong economic foundation, there will be no strong nation. Each cycle, Caroline can make a prosperity investment, enhancing the scale of (two) economic buildings by 75% and output by 100%.]

These two are extremely crucial active skills apart from Caroline's traits.

With these two skills, any building in the territory can soar directly.

And the armory is undoubtedly one of Caroline's key investment projects, perfectly aligning with her development philosophy.

It is both heavy industry and the cornerstone of the territory's economic development. It can also conduct technological research, leading in technology.

Lin Rui curiously asked, "What effect does expansion have?"

Burton replied excitedly and satisfactorily, "It can significantly improve all my skill levels and effects, such as the armor coating layer."

"Previously, the armor coating layer improved physical defense by +10% and Spiritual Resistance by +5%. Now physical defense and Spiritual Resistance both increase by 30%, and it provides a Divine Shield of equipment tier * 1000."

"Divine Shield!" Lin Rui's eyes lit up; this is an extremely precious attribute.

As the territory grows and soldiers' strength increases, Divine Resistance and Divine Shield are attributes Lin Rui urgently needs to enhance for the army. He was previously looking for ideas in this regard.

Unexpectedly, with the development of the territory's internal affairs, building upgrades, and technology unlocking, these attributes naturally followed!

The Divine Shield of equipment tier * 1000 does not refer to the soldier's tier, but this shield directly takes effect on the equipment. When the equipment is Tier One, it provides any user with a 1000-point Divine Shield. Tier One soldiers may have only a dozen or even a few Divine Damage. Breaking through this thousand-point Divine Shield is almost impossible.

Of course, in Tier One battles, this high-level attribute might not even be needed.

Its real power is revealed between Tier Five to Tier Seven or Eight. Tier Five provides 5000 points of Divine Damage, which is the most cost-effective time, as opponents are gradually acquiring Divine Damage traits but still unable to break this Divine Shield.

When it reaches Tier Eight, the eight thousand-point shield seems a bit insufficient and might only withstand one fierce attack.

However, Lin Rui is not anxious. This armory, along with Burton's traits, skills, attributes, etc., will continue to grow. By the time the troops generally reach Tier Eight, there might be stronger Divine Resistance.

So Lin Rui switched the topic and asked, "I heard the artisans say you can forge Divine Artifacts now? What is this about?"

"Oh, that's the artisans exaggerating. Actually, I just acquired new traits," Burton said in a loud and frank voice, "The weapon that can be forged is called a Divine Weapon."

[Thunder Forged Divine Soldier·Legendary Trait: Forged from the sacred, mighty thunder, the Thunder Forged Divine Soldier emerges in the world. They are the epitome of valor and heroism from the Heaven of Ultimate Bliss, their radiant legions sweeping across the Mortal Realm like a mythical storm, reclaiming the Plane Gate from the clutches of Evil Gods and saving kingdoms of the world. Thunder Forged Divine Soldiers are Extraordinary Warriors enveloped in lightning, wielding the power of the Celestial Realm storm, born for war. They embody the will of the Divine King, and the army composed of these Demigods is tasked with bringing hope back to the war-torn Mortal Realm; if necessary, they will not hesitate to use force.]

[Effect One·Divine Armor Casting: Utilizing any wreckage, you can create Spiritual Energy Field Power Armor. This is not just ordinary equipment; it contains mythical power, significantly enhancing the wearer's various abilities. Among them, the outstanding are called [Brahma Heaven Armor]. (Note: Creation failure results in the wreckage becoming completely useless and impossible to remodel again)]

[Effect Two·Mysterious Spiritual Enlightenment: When repairing or modifying armaments, you have a 20% chance to trigger "Mysterious Spiritual Enlightenment," which not only alters the item's base data but also reveals hidden attributes or functions. The direction of data change depends entirely on your resonance with mythical power.]

[Effect Three·Mythical Storm Emergence: Most rare is when you achieve perfect harmony with mythical power, there is a 0.1% chance to trigger the "Mythical Storm." At this moment, the item in hand undergoes a transformative change, not only significantly enhancing its quality but possibly gaining unique special effects, becoming a legendary existence.]

Lin Rui's gaze instantly focused as he looked at Burton and asked, "This [Brahma Heaven Armor] level is...?"

"Oh, Legendary-level! The Mythical Storm Emergence is also Legendary-level," Burton replied.

In the next moment, Audrey leaned out beside Lin Rui, eyes shining as she looked intensely at Burton and asked, "So our territory can independently produce legendary armor now?"

And Lin Rui was also deeply shocked. Although he had some speculations, getting confirmation from Burton's solid voice was still overwhelming for Lin Rui.

This means Burton's single trait can create two paths to Legendary-level equipment.

Moreover, they are offensive and defensive equipment; Divine Armor Casting can manufacture battle armor, and Mythical Storm Emergence can forge weapons.

With these two pieces of equipment, Lin Rui can form a powerful Thunder Forged Divine Army, whose combat power may not necessarily be weaker than Setra's Apocalypse Knight Legion.

Apart from these two traits, Mysterious Spiritual Enlightenment also allows Burton to reveal hidden attributes or functions when repairing and modifying armaments.

This effect sounds mysterious, but the function is very simple and direct: it can add new attributes to the equipment when modifying it!

It might not matter much for ordinary equipment, but for Epic-level and Legendary-level equipment, this is a very powerful enhancement. After all, every added trait on Legendary-level equipment greatly boosts its attributes.
