Chapter 1069 - 158: The Territory’s Soaring Power and Legendary Armor Ambitions (Part 3)
Especially the extraordinary growth of the Moon Crown Tree, which caused the scale of the Crown Tree Flower and Embers to suddenly rise to an unprecedented level.
After defeating Blue Mirror Territory, Hesse Territory expanded both in territory and population, and naturally, this Moon Crown Tree also became more flourishing. It directly soared from 40-50 meters before the battle to over 70 meters.
This increase clearly shows how much this round of territorial conquest has boosted the strength of the territory.
It also reveals that Blue Mirror Territory’s defeat was justified, as their strength indeed couldn’t match Hesse Territory’s; otherwise, the height of this Moon Crown Tree would have doubled directly.
This 70 meters mark is the result of Hesse Territory continuously integrating and conquering territories over several cycles, thereby enhancing its strength, and then the Moon Crown Tree gradually grew bit by bit.
Even now, this tree grows at a speed almost visible to the naked eye every day, increasing by a dozen or even twenty centimeters.
The amount of Moon Crown Tree Flower harvested by the Dawn Nun daily is merely a drop in the ocean compared to the vast tree trunk.
Under the blessing of this scale, the newly produced equipment is all bathed in the quenching of the Moon Crown Tree and the sublimation of Embers.
Hela is overwhelmed every day, with her perfumer’s incense burner constantly producing Ring of Blazing Flame and Embers.
The dwarves are overjoyed; the war has finally ended, and the dwarves have all returned to the smithy, beginning their joyful life of forging.
Under the blessing of these Embers, the newly produced equipment is nothing short of Refined Level!
Yes! All of them are above Refined Level, numbering in the hundreds and close to a thousand!
Before the war, Su Li couldn’t imagine his territory could produce Refined Level equipment on such a large scale, in the thousands.
This is extraordinary equipment that easily exceeds 100 Golden Crowns in value, some even possibly reaching 200 Crowns or 300 Crowns!
Su Li couldn’t have anticipated that the greatest wealth gain from Hesse Territory defeating Blue Mirror Territory would come from the territory’s extraordinary spiritual plants.
However, upon reflection, he found it reasonable. He worked tirelessly to cultivate so many extraordinary plants so that as the territory expanded, its strength could rapidly swell. Otherwise, what would be the point of the supernatural and magical effects of extraordinary spiritual plants?
The effect of these Embers is very clear; once added to the forge, they can increase the flame temperature, allowing the blazing Akasha Flame to permeate into the weapons, turning mortal items into powerful magic weaponry.
This is the root that enabled the territory to forge nearly a thousand Refined Level equipment, but the territory’s production effect goes far beyond this.
Thanks to the Empire’s engineers, the forged equipment has a small chance of being upgraded in quality +1, so Su Li also possesses dozens of Perfect Level equipment.
Perfect Level, which is comparable to Vibranium Rune Armor Level. Su Li just calculated that having 300 sets of Vibranium Rune Armor by the end of the year would be considered good.
But now it seems this progress will be super accelerated. By year’s end, he might even have 500 sets of Vibranium Rune Armor or weaponry.
But do not believe that everything ends here.
In fact, during these cycles, the dwarves have been zealously producing Vibranium Rune equipment, using the armor, ores, and broken battle armor re-forged from the battlefield seized in Blue Mirror Territory, giving them a massive opportunity to reforge Perfect Level armor.
This resulted in Hesse Territory directly adding more than 60 sets of Perfect Level armor, though all of this was within Su Li’s expectations. After Hilude reported the spoils of war, Su Li knew such a scale of armor increase would occur.
But what he didn’t foresee was the territory gaining 3 sets of Rare Level armor!
Currently, due to the absence of war, these three sets of armor are hung quietly in the vault area, displayed on racks.
When Old Jeff, Suna, and twenty others began selecting equipment in the vault area, exclamations of surprise quickly spread, drawing everyone to gather beneath these Rare Level armors.
"This...this..." Old Jeff’s voice completely changed tone, nearly suffocated with tremors. His calloused hand firmly grasped Carl’s arm next to him, his knuckles whitening with force. His cloudy old eyes were fixed on these three sets of armor, his pupils contracting heavily, filled with unimaginable horror and a reverent awe akin to a pilgrimage.
As the chief steward of Bauhinia Castle’s armed attendant camp, he has seen countless treasures, even had the privilege to witness the family’s deep vault treasure, the incomplete Rare Level armor deemed a supreme treasure. But this scene still left him dizzy, feeling as though his heart was being clenched by an invisible hand, nearly stopping its beat. Could Hesse Territory really forge such divine level items? And three sets at once?!
Carl was even more stunned in place, mouth slightly open, but unable to make any sound. The new Refined Level longsword he held seemed to instantly lose all its brilliance, becoming dull. He stared fixedly at the armor resembling molten lava, feeling the scorching pressure and fierce power coming towards him. As a strength-type Fire Attribute Knight, the armor held a deadly allure to him, yet also made him feel insignificant and instinctively fearful from the depths of his soul. Is this a power that mere mortals can wield?
