Chapter 2403 The Power of Armor
Then Shad quietly finished his second breakfast. When the maids cleared the dishes from the table, Miss Knight's sword returned to Shad's hand.
Audrey and Miss Aurora believe that although this sword is just an ordinary item, it is still worth exploring:
"Although the Council has collected many personal belongings of witches from the Fifth Epoch, there is really not a single item like this that is related to the birth of a witch."
As they spoke, the two looked at Xia De together. Seeing their reluctance, Xia De smiled and lent them the sword:
"It's just a souvenir in my hands anyway. Here, return it to me after the Moon Bay incident. As long as you don't damage the sword, you can study it at will."
"I know you're never stingy with us."
Miss Aurora kissed Shade's cheek reservedly. As for Audrey, the twin witches just smiled at him, which reminded Shade of the expression on her face when she held the glass goblet when they met again last week.
As for Luvia and Miss Belindel, who were fortune-telling about the glowing armor, even if they were very skilled, they could not come to many valid conclusions during Shad's entire meal.
"But your guess is correct. Wearing this set of armor can indeed avoid the damage of special light to a certain extent."
Luvia said, and asked Shade to put on the armor:
"Didn't the light of the lightsaber you brought back last time be collected by the 'Empty Bottle Fruit'? Let's try it now. Although this set of armor seems to be tailor-made for you, if it can really resist that kind of light, it can protect others even if it is loose."
The others were also curious about the experiment, but before they helped Shad put on the armor, Miss Matilda hurriedly delivered a letter to Megan and Audrey.
After opening the letter, the wise witch raised her eyebrows unexpectedly and said to Xia De:
"There's news."
"What's the news?"
"My cousin Nadia Foran has finally answered my letter. She agreed to meet you and me in Moon Bay, at a time and place that she will decide, this week. So, are you ready to meet her?"
Nadia Foran and Megan Audrey belong to the fifth generation of the "Edwards Family" and have the same grandfather. The former is a cultist of the Dragon Feast Cult and a bridge between the "ancestor" Laplace Howard and the Dragon Feast Cult.
Although she is the mother of the Foran brothers of Willendell, Megan and Audrey are actually older than her. Of course, the Edwards family has a complex and "magical" bloodline, so this Ms. Nadia Foran does not look very old, just in her thirties.
She had provided important intelligence to Shade on the eve of the Battle of Green Lake. The last time he saw her was after the Battle of Green Lake, when all the members of the Edwards family reunited at the old house.
"Finally got in touch? I thought she didn't want to talk to us. Yes, of course we have to meet her."
Nadia Foran's meeting with Shade and her witch cousin was of course risky for herself, because the meeting was scheduled at night. Specifically, she stated in her letter that she would meet at 8 o'clock on Wednesday, the day after tomorrow, at the "Merris Book Club" in the lower city in the south of the city.
"This is where?"
Xia De asked the Countess, and she recalled:
“I seem to have some impression of it. Three years ago, when I was trading relics with a local ring sorcerer, I arranged for my followers to go there.
It is an ordinary library on the edge of the lower city. You can go there anytime to read books by paying a fee every year. Of course, you can also copy books, but you have to pay an additional fee. Therefore, it is appropriate to say that it is a club or a library. The library is close to the Tatton River, further south of the Herring Street you are familiar with. To the east is the river bank, to the west are the alleys of the lower city, and to the south is the dock area, so it is very safe. ”
"Okay, Audrey, reply to her that we can meet."
Xia De said, and the witch nodded slightly:
"I'll go with you then. I'll only meet her once, and then I'll be on guard nearby for you. If you have anything to say, just talk to her. After all, you make the decision here. Even though she's a relative, we can't trust her completely. We still have to be vigilant."
Next, they went to experiment with the special light resistance of the "Lion of Light Armor" in the basement of the manor. Even Emilia and Ajelina came to join in the fun.
The witches helped Shad put on the complicated golden armor. When Shad participated in the "Tobesk Spring City Riding Competition", he did not install chain accessories on the armor, but this time, at Luvia's instigation, the girls installed all the parts of the armor on Shad.
“It’s gorgeous.”
Although the lights were on in the basement, when Shade appeared in the glowing armor, he was still the brightest person on the scene. The solemnity and sacredness made the pointy-eared elf girl sigh, and then she saw the "empty bottle fruit" that she had been asked to try to "shape the light" many times was brought over.
The great witch of "light", Xivi Aurora, personally wore special gloves to pull out the cork of the bottle. After making sure that Shade had put on the helmet, she "sprinkled" the light on him like pouring water from a bottle.
Everyone stepped back immediately, and the ritual symbols on the ground surrounding Shad's location lit up at the same time, almost completely blocking the already weakened light. This was also the result of the witches' research in recent times.
When the light came into contact with the glowing armor on Shade, the armor did not suddenly become brighter or darker, but the "splashed" light weakened slightly, and then dispersed evenly in the space around Shade, making the basement brighter.
"Shad, what does it feel like?"
Audrey asked, and a slightly muffled voice came out from the helmet:
"Except for the sudden warmth of this armor, there is no other feeling. Oh, the temperature is gradually dropping. Okay, the temperature has returned to its original state."
"Absorb some of the special light and convert it into temperature?"
So Miss Aurora guessed, and after thinking for a while she asked again:
"How do you feel the intensity of these lights compares to the intensity of the sunlight you encountered in that desert?"
"Much weaker than the sunlight on the gravel sand sea."
"Since this set of armor can absorb stronger special light, it is normal to absorb the light here."
Luvia commented, and issued another "order" to Shade:
"I remember you have a magic trick of shooting sunlight. Try it out in this armor."
"Shad, wait a minute!"
The Countess said immediately, turning around and giving instructions to Miss Matilda. After a while, the maids brought a large urn, and the witch chanted a spell softly, and a skeleton stood up from the urn.
She controlled the resurrected undead to gradually approach Shade, while the others consciously stayed away from the skeleton.
So Shade raised his hand and pointed:
"Daylight ray!"
The first light that appeared was not at the fingertips, but the warm sunlight on the armor quickly flowed along the arm armor and hand armor to the fingertips of the hand armor. Then a golden ray as thick as a bowl burst out, directly evaporating most of the skeleton's body, and continued to shoot towards the back of the skeleton without weakening.
Miss Elither, who also came to "watch the fun", was well prepared and raised her hand to block the beam of light. With just a slight pinch, the beam of light was shattered by her.
But she still frowned and looked at her palm. A small black area appeared in the center of her originally delicate and rosy palm, as if it was burnt. But thanks to her extremely strong physical fitness, the injury was recovering:
“What a strong sunlight. This secret technique looks familiar. Did you learn it from Miss Violet? I remember that the original sunlight rays, unless they were deliberately amplified, basically only had a damaging effect on creatures such as the undead and demons.”
Miss Aurora then asked:
"So, this armor can enhance the power related to the sun? Shade, do you feel that the armor itself has been drained of power?"
"At least I haven't felt it yet."
Subsequent experiments proved that only the power related to "sunlight" could be amplified. Although magic related to "light" but not involving "sun" such as "Filianna's Witch Light" and "Moonlight Greatsword" still maintained their original power.
During the continued experiments, Shade also discovered that this enhancement of the "sun" power did not consume the light that had already been absorbed by the armor itself.
This also means an astonishing fact: before reaching the absorption and enhancement limit of this set of armor, the continuous exposure of this set of armor to sunlight and those special lights is actually equivalent to continuously enhancing the effect of this set of armor.
"So why can Mia's master come up with something like this?"
The little red-haired princess asked in confusion, and looked back at the cat that Tifa was holding, then immediately turned her head back to prevent herself from having unnecessary comparisons.
"Shad said that this armor can only absorb sunlight in an abnormal area like the Sand Sea, enhanced by the altar of the Ancient God Temple. Maybe there is really a problem with the armor itself, or maybe it is just a coincidence that cannot be replicated. But in any case, having this set of armor will save a lot of trouble in the future."
Luvia said with a smile, and then motioned for Shade to take off his armor:
"Ajelina, Emilia, go and try."
"us?"
The little princess and the pointy-eared elf girl both pointed at her. Miss Aurora understood Luvia's intention:
"Ajelina is the first level of the low level, Emilia is the first level of the middle level, and Shade's level is basically the high level. You all try out the enhanced effects of this armor, which will also help evaluate its effectiveness. Of course, I will be the last one to try it."
