Chapter 770: Lightrender Armor
Chapter 770: Lightrender Armor
The Purple Feathers turned and reattached themselves to Steel Treasure, as if they had never flown away.
Qiao Sang approached and removed the protective film from the items.
She found four metal boxes of varying sizes.
They were quite well-protected... Qiao Sang picked up the smallest metal box and prepared to figure out how to open it.
At that moment, a white light flashed along the edge of the metal box in her hand.
Then, the box opened automatically.
Silver armor pieces were revealed inside.
Judging by the size, they were exactly the right fit for Treasure Seeker.
"Did you buy Defend Artifacts? You're not planning to use them in the final, are you?" Maral walked over, her tone surprised when she saw the Artifacts in the box.
Maral was familiar with Blue Star and understood that it was quite different from Supernest.
For example, their attitudes toward Artifacts.
In Supernest, most battle competitions had no strict rules against using Artifacts and Spirit Patterns. If you had the ability to use them, you could.
They believed that Artifacts and Spirit Patterns were part of one's strength.
But in Blue Star.
It was said that many Professional Beastmasters only used Artifacts in the wild and were reluctant to use them in matches, believing that winning a battle competition purely based on their familiars' strength was more meaningful.
Therefore, most formal large-scale familiar battle competitions did not allow the use of Artifacts and Spirit Patterns.
Qiao Sang was from Blue Star and was an exceptional Professional Beastmaster. According to the prevailing mindset, she should have been more averse to using Artifacts. Yet, she had bought them at this critical moment. Could it be that she had adapted to the local customs during her time in Supernest?
"I didn't buy them; someone sent them to me." Qiao Sang said as she picked up one of the silver pieces and examined it, finding it surprisingly light, far lighter than she had expected.
Maral was taken aback and quickly understood. "Is it an Artifacts brand asking you to promote their products in the final tonight?"
That was correct... Qiao Sang nodded, put down the piece, and started reading the manual inside.
Lightrender Armor
Function: Defend
Description: Enhances defensive strength, virtually weightless, and feels like you're not wearing anything. When in use, the armor will glow according to the familiar's attributes, adding a cool visual effect.
Note: Use with caution for Ghost Familiars, as the armor will still be visible even when Invisibility is active.
Qiao Sang: "???"
If it's not suitable for Ghost Familiars, why did you send me a set for Treasure Seeker?
"Which familiar brand is it that you're willing to promote?" Maral asked.
"It's called Light Path." Qiao Sang suppressed her urge to criticize the Artifacts and said, "The founder of the brand is a high school classmate of mine from Supernest."
High school classmate... Maral's expression became complicated.
That means the founder is still a freshman...
Are these Artifacts reliable...
Maral instantly lost interest in the Artifacts and sat back down on the sofa.
Suddenly, her mobile phone vibrated.
Qiao Sang pulled it out of her pocket and saw it was a call from Hylis.
She hesitated for a moment before answering.
Hylis's voice came through the speaker: "How's it going? Did you receive the package?"
"I received it..." Qiao Sang paused and asked, "Since it's not suitable for Ghost Familiars, why did you send me a set for Ghost Ring King?"
"I thought I'd get a set for each of your familiars." Hylis's tone was cheerful. "Even if Ghost Ring King can't use it in matches due to the Invisibility issue, it can still be used in everyday situations. The main defensive function is still there."
Qiao Sang's frown eased. "Thanks."
"Don't thank me. You're a shareholder, so you already have a share in all the Artifacts." Hylis laughed. "Just make sure to promote them well in your match tonight."
"Rest assured." Qiao Sang said. "I'll use the Artifacts in tonight's match."
Today is the final. If we don't do it now, there won't be another chance...
After a few more casual words, Qiao Sang hung up the phone.
"Xunxun?"
At that moment, Treasure Seeker floated over, looking at the items in front of its Beastmaster with a curious expression.
What is this?
"These are Defendartifacts", Qiao Sang explained.
She looked at Treasure Seeker and smiled, "Want to try them on?"
"Xunxun~"
Treasure Seeker immediately called out excitedly.
Yes, I want to!
The armor set only had a few parts: a helmet, arm guards, and a chest plate.
Clearly tailored to a familiar's body size, Qiao Sang quickly helped Treasure Seeker put on the entire set of armor.
Surprisingly, it looked quite fitting... Qiao Sang looked at Treasure Seeker in the silver armor and felt satisfied.
Even though she wouldn't let Treasure Seeker wear the Defendartifacts in the match, it did look very cool.
Especially with the helmet covering Treasure Seeker's current hairstyle.
"Xunxun~"
Unable to see itself, Treasure Seeker eagerly floated over to a full-length mirror to take a look.
As soon as it saw its reflection, its eyes lit up.
Lulu probably wouldn't use these Defendartifacts either, since once Water Fusion was used, the artifacts would fall off... With Steel Treasure's current strength, it wasn't suitable to appear in the final... Only Fangy... Qiao Sang thought about this and looked at Fangy, whose expression was gradually returning to normal. She asked, "Do you want to try these Defendartifacts?"
"Ya Ya!"
Fangy looked at the remaining three metal boxes, then at Treasure Seeker, and finally fixed its gaze on Treasure Seeker's head, shaking its head and calling out, indicating no.
"Why?" Qiao Sang asked.
Could it be that Fangy knew the Defendartifacts would be used in the final and wanted to win with its own strength?
"Ya Ya!"
Fangy lifted its head.
Wearing the Defendartifacts would mess up its hairstyle.
Qiao Sang: "..."
Honestly, you should consider getting a different hairstyle.
"Really don't want to?" Qiao Sang tried to persuade Fangy with her silver tongue.
"Ya Ya!"
Fangy shook its head firmly.
No!
"Xunxun!"
Just as Qiao Sang was about to say something, Treasure Seeker floated over excitedly, raising its claws and calling out.
If Fangy won't wear them, it will!
...Qiao Sang patiently explained, "If you use these in the match, the Defendartifacts won't disappear when you become Invisible. Your opponents will see your position. If you like them, you can wear them in private."
"Xunxun~"
"Xunxun~"
Treasure Seeker hesitated.
If it wears them in private, won't fewer people see how cool it looks?
Qiao Sang: "..."
"Then what if your Invisibility is discovered by the opponent?" Qiao Sang asked.
"Xunxun!"
Treasure Seeker puffed out its chest.
Then it won't use Invisibility!
Maral sat on the sofa, watching Qiao Sang interact with Ghost Ring King and Flame Kiru, feeling puzzled.
Isn't it just a matter of the Beastmaster's decision whether a familiar uses Defendartifacts or not? Why is she arguing so much with her familiar?
Could it be that if the familiar doesn't want to use them, it really won't?
Even though Maral understood that the relationship between Blue Star people and their familiars was different from that in Supernest, she still found the scene before her puzzling.
...
6:20 PM.
The open-air Beastmaster venue was bathed in the glow of dazzling lights, with neon colors intersecting in the night sky.
The audience stands were packed.
Hosts from various media outlets, both inside and outside the venue, were introducing the grand event to their viewers.
"Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to the final of this year's Beastmaster Star Tournament!" the Announcer's enthusiastic voice echoed across the venue. "I am your commentator for the evening! Lu Yiweng!"
