Chapter 884: The Red Dragon Queen Showcases Her Gear
"Koko, you're finally back!" The White Dragon Queen embraced her daughter's petite body, the heavy stone in her heart finally lifted.
For the White Dragon Queen, even though her daughter Koko was not alone on her mission to Blue Star and was accompanied by the Red Dragon Queen, as a mother, how could she not worry about her daughter's safety?
Fortunately, her daughter had returned safe and sound.
Dragon Emperor Cadrith and the other three Dragon Kings flew toward the Red Dragon Queen, saying, "Gry, you're finally back. Welcome home to Dragon Island!"
"Your Majesty... I've missed all of you so much," the Red Dragon Queen replied, her voice filled with emotion.
...
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the Red Dragon Queen got down to business.
She created a red, opaque shield that enveloped them all.
The shield was to prevent the Skrull from eavesdropping.
Although the Skrull had not set up surveillance equipment or spy satellites near Dragon Island (as strictly limited by the treaty signed between the dragons and the Skrull in the past), she still took this precaution just in case.
Seeing the shield appear, the Dragon Emperor and the other high-ranking dragons immediately understood that the Red Dragon Queen had something important to say. They all turned their attention to her.
The Red Dragon Queen scanned the Dragon Emperor and the other Dragon Kings, then said, "This time, Koko and I went to Blue Star and completed our mission successfully. We have brought back many wonderful things! Let me show you."
As soon as she finished speaking, a set of exquisite pure white leather armor appeared on her body.
The pure white belly plate, adorned with intricate magical arrays, was designed for protection and acceleration. The white wing plates and the gleaming helmet...
The most eye-catching part was the Red Dragon Queen's back plate.
At the center of her back plate, a fire-red gemstone about three meters in diameter was embedded. This was a seventh-tier fire magic beast's core, a prized possession of the Red Dragon Queen.
Originally, this core would have been best suited for a magic staff.
If the Red Dragon Queen were human, she would have definitely made it into a staff to maximize its power. However, as a dragon, she couldn't wield a staff, so the Blue Star equipment crafting masters embedded the core into her back plate.
While the effect might be slightly weaker, it still served the purpose of a magic staff, enhancing her power by about 20%.
Seeing the Red Dragon Queen in her full set of pure white armor, looking formidable and majestic, the Dragon Emperor and the other four Dragon Kings were stunned!
They were not surprised by the quality of the equipment but by how it appeared.
Instead of being taken out piece by piece from storage, the equipment emerged directly from her body, a sight that left the dragons utterly amazed.
"Gr... Gry, you... you did this?" the Blue Dragon King stuttered, his words faltering.
The Red Dragon Queen was delighted by their astonished expressions.
It was truly satisfying to pull off such a grand display!
She smiled and explained, "This set of equipment was crafted by the Blue Star equipment crafting master 'Hammer80.' It boosts my power by about 50% in total."
"50%?" The Dragon Emperor and the Dragon Kings' eyes lit up at the number, their hearts racing.
"50%" was an astounding figure. Given the dragons' already formidable base, a 50% boost was equivalent to a 100% increase for a human of the same rank.
And with the great battle about to begin, there's no way for them to achieve any significant breakthroughs in their realms. This 50% permanent power boost is incredibly tempting.
The Queen of the Red Dragons spread her wings, showing off her equipment.
Then she continued with a laugh, "Of course, the biggest highlight of this equipment is that it can be stored inside the body. When needed, it can be summoned directly, which is very convenient."
As she spoke, she demonstrated the process, quickly storing all her equipment back into her body and returning to her original form.
Seeing this, the Dragon Emperor and the other Dragon Kings’ eyes widened.
In the past, they didn't wear equipment not because they looked down on the power boosts it provided, but because the equipment was bulky and difficult to carry.
Given their wingspans of sixty to seventy meters, carrying a full set of equipment would require a storage space of thousands of cubic meters, and there were very few such storage spaces in the world.
Moreover, before a battle, they would have to take out the equipment piece by piece from the storage space and put it on, which was very troublesome.
If they didn't consider the storage space and wore the equipment directly, it wasn't impossible. After all, the Skrull people, who didn't have storage spaces, always wore their equipment when they went out.
However, the dragon race was different from humans. Dragons were large and flew at high altitudes, where the air currents caused much more damage to their equipment.
Humans, being smaller, could protect their equipment with a spiritual shield while flying at high altitudes. For dragons, who were much larger, creating a shield that could protect all their equipment required a significant amount of energy.
Therefore, the dragon race had never developed the habit of wearing equipment.
The same went for other large magical beasts.
But now, the Queen of the Red Dragons’ ability to store equipment inside her body truly caught their attention! If all the equipment from Blue Star was this convenient to carry, it would be too good to be true!
They couldn't think of a single reason to refuse such equipment!
The Queen of the Green Dragons asked excitedly, "Gry, what does it feel like to have the equipment stored inside your body? Does it affect your movement at all?"
"Don’t worry, it won’t affect you in the slightest!" the Queen of the Red Dragons answered immediately. "This is a unique ‘refinement technique’ of Blue Star cultivators. When the equipment is stored inside the body, it completely fuses with it.
It won’t hinder your movement at all, and it’s as if it’s stored in a spatial ring—you won’t even notice its presence unless you focus your mind on it!
I brought back many pieces of equipment that have already been refined from Blue Star. You can try them on yourselves later, and you’ll see that I’m not exaggerating."
"This sounds amazing!" the Queen of the Green Dragons was thrilled, and the surrounding Dragon Kings were eager to try it out.
If the setting were appropriate, they would have tried on the equipment the Queen of the Red Dragons brought back right then and there.
"Mommy, mommy!" At that moment, Princess Koko, the White Dragon, wriggled free from her mother’s embrace.
She spread her young wings, and under the astonished gazes of her mother and the other dragons, a set of light purple equipment emerged from her body.
Koko’s equipment was of “Epic” quality, while the Queen of the Red Dragons’ was only “Rare” quality, making Koko’s set much more intricate and refined.
The light purple, scale-like leather armor extended from her neck to her calves, forming a seamless and dazzling ensemble.
To put it bluntly, this equipment significantly enhanced Koko’s aura and beauty!
