Chapter 1368 Treasure Chests!
Chapter 1368 Treasure Chests!
As I knew I was getting a new breed of bones, my excitement grew to a new level. I kept taking a few bones out from time to time and checked things about them.
The highest I ever got was the purple and orange grade bones. As for the lower ranks, I also got many of them.
As for the number of bones, I noticed that each fiend gave me at least one hundred different types of bones.
That meant by the end of collecting bones from here, I'd get at least hundreds of millions of bones, if not a billion.
During my collecting spree, the generals amassed their remaining warriors and came to see me.
However as they found me busy handling the bone issue, they didn't dare to interrupt me. My old friends used to see me do such a thing from time to time after the end of any battle.
As for the new generals, they kept whispering about what I was doing. And I didn't care about what they thought about me. I felt like I was standing in the middle of a huge treasure trove at this moment.
"What shall we do until you get over this?" from the side, a single dude wasn't patient at all to wait for me to finish.
It was that jerk!
"Go and explore the world down below," I shouted, "go around to the end of this silver ground. Try to spot any gathering of enemy forces and see what type of forces they got there."
"Cool!" The jumper didn't issue any mean or rude comment to him like usual. Instead he simply moved with the remaining few warriors he got, and others followed his suit.
I needed them to see through the enemy plans down below, explore the world underneath, and get an idea about what the hell this world was like.
I was curious about the current state of this world, but I had far more important tasks at hand right now.
After collecting the bones for two straight hours, jumping all over the wide battlefield, I finally had time to finish another task… Examining the mountains of gears I gained from these dudes.
My loyal warriors gathered all the gear during these two hours, piled them up in huge mountain-like gatherings, and they waited for me to arrive and check them out.
The gears were all huge in size, enough to arm up my giant warriors like dragons, bulltors, Hescos, and even soulers.
I held what should be an arm guard gear and started examining it.
[The Holy Ones arm guard blue frost grade gear: A gear that was designed and forged at the grand ancestral forging lands of the Holy Ones. They have five different skills…]
I read through the long description of this gear, and found out that these five skills were very brutal. All of them targeted defence, by creating a layer of aura around the arm, protecting it from any incoming attack.
It worked slightly like my Avengers and pillar's shield in the concept of absorbing part of the incoming attack and using it to replenish the lost energy.
This gear used the warrior's energy to get its five skills activated. At the same time, the first skill was like a passive skill that didn't require any form of energy to get activated.
However there was a catch… This piece of gear was part of a set. And without wearing at least three parts of the same set, then these skills wouldn't work except for the first skill.
It was a good concept and I admired the blacksmith skills of those who made it. I went through other parts around, and unluckily all of them belonged to different sets of gears and pieces.
They all were forged by the same people at the same place. After going through at least a hundred different gears, I got tired and bored.
First I couldn't personally use any of this. And second I had to find and match the different gears together in unified sets. And such a task required tons of time and effort, a thing I couldn't afford to do right now.
"I'll store them for later," but they were a great thing without doubt. So even if I didn't make use of them here, I'd just store them for the time I'd return back and try to see if my warriors and armies could use them.
However the moment I started storing them inside my inventory, I noticed something new happened.
When I randomly checked my inventory out of habit, I saw that each set of gears got stored together, forming a miniature image of gears gathered up as if they were a big suit waiting to be worn.
And when I checked closer and with more attention, I noticed that each slot had a number next to it, one that kept growing without pause.
I saw lots of sets stored inside, and more were still getting added. There were still a few incomplete sets. And that meant there were still missing pieces I didn't store up yet, or these were the damaged gears from that battle.
Seeing this made me smile, then laugh. Damn this system! Sometimes it worked in an unreliable way, and other times it worked as my best buddy and friend!
Right now this little help saved me tons of effort and time, and made me able to arm up my warriors right away without the need to do anything or wait for anyone to help.
Realising this, I didn't stop my hands and kept jumping around, storing up everything. When I finished, I took almost one hour to do so, and the end result made me grin.
"This… Hahahaha! I want friends! I want to fight those treasure chests flying in the air, hahahaha!"
I first didn't like fighting these hard to deal with race. However after getting my bones, my gears, and even gaining tens of thousands of them under my wing made me desire to battle them more.
