Chapter 1272:
Rebecca continued to pepper Wu Yan with questions to prompt his memories to come back.
She queried him about his Seikoku’s nature and appearance. The name of his pals, where are they, and other related questions…
Dragon breeders are entrusted with dragons known as pals when they successfully completed the Orphan’s rite at a young age.
The pals all have names and they also usually have starter forms and advanced forms depending on the dragons’ lineage. There are flying dragons, water dragons, and terrestrial dragons.
Once their pals grow to a sufficient level where the dragons fly as freely in the sky as they are comfortable swimming in the water, these dragon breeders will have reached the ranks of dragonars (dragon riders). At this point, these dragonars are conferred t.i.tles befitting that of n.o.bles at a knighting ceremony where they will receive special watches.
All breeders want to become Dragonars.
When their dragons reach the levels of Maestro (holy dragons), these dragonars (dragon riders) will be conferred the t.i.tle of Arch Dragonar. These arch dragonars usually have Suits which are magical armors created by the dragons to give the wielders immense boost of powers.
The armors tend to be unique as different dragons design different suits for different masters. This is also the ultimate test of loyalty as it is tantamount to the dragon giving their hearts and souls to their masters. It is a form of expression of loyalty.
When Maestros create Arc Armors for their masters, that breeder will have become an Arch Dragonar. It is one of the highest positions a Lautreamont resident can covet.
Even the dragonar knights, the cream of the crop of Lautreamont’s dragon knights is only made up of 10% Arch Dragonars.
They are all basically high n.o.bility if not outright royals.
These Arch Dragonars can also fight without their pals with them as the Arc Armor provides an immense boost to physical and magical abilities.
Breeders and Dragonars still have to fight with their pals by their sides or they are no better than common foot soldiers.
It just so happens that Rebecca is one of these exalted Arch Dragonars.
Wu Yan felt speechless upon hearing this.
The first person he met after getting blasted by the planet’s Astral energies is a high-ranking individual.
Looks like his student life won’t be boring anymore.
After that, Rebecca answered many questions Wu Yan had about this world. In return, Wu Yan answered only a few questions Rebecca had because most of them pertained to his extrauniversal existence. Honestly, Rebecca felt a bit frustrated.
Rebecca has her heart set on discovering why Wu Yan got blasted by Astral storms and explosions. Wu Yan also felt bad because he had to keep letting her down.
“Fine, let her try.”
Wu Yan decided to shrug this issue off and head to bed.
It sounds like Arc Armors can give normal humans access to superhuman powers and feats of strength.
It almost sounds like these Arc Armors are like Realizers from Date A Live’s universe. In any case, normal humans can achieve superhuman feats through these equipment.
Realizers are tech-based mimicry of magic while Arm Armor amplifies the user’s magic and provide them with magic circuits to exhibit these amplified powers.
For Wu Yan, Realizers won’t do him any good as he is already too powerful to wield the Realizers. The same cannot be said of Arc Armors. The Arc Armors can boost normal humans to power levels near Wu Yan.
But, he is a being of immense magic powers. He doubts there is a dragon strong enough to craft Arc Armors capable to amplify his already gargantuan magic power reserves. Wu Yan also isn’t a dragon breeder.
Now, this is where the System can help.
“System…”
Wu Yan willed in his mind.
“Is there an equipment similar to the Arc Armor that can boost all my stats?”
“Yes.”
The system replied.
“However, the user is not advised to use it.”
Wu Yan felt like the System just poured cold water on him.
“Why?”
“There are equipment that has similar effects to Arc Armors but the Arc Armors of this world appears to be constructed on a customized basis where the Maestros measure the capabilities of their masters and make a suit unique to the users’ strength and weaknesses. The equipment sold in the system can only do so much to increase the user’s capabilities and is thus inherently inefficient at boosting stats.”
“You helped me calibrate equipment before, right?”
Wu Yan raised a counterpoint.
“Our souls are linked, you are very aware of my capabilities. You should be able to design an armor like the Maestros, if not do a better job than them, right?”
System stayed silent as if it is doing complex modelling.
“System has ascertained the user’s request and collected the required data. It is 100% possible to design equipment according to the user’s request.”
“That means…”
Wu Yan grinned.
“According to the user’s request, here are the points required to construct different grades of equipment…”
“D-grade equipment: Costs 1,000 Equipment Points, Item Points, and Ability Points.”
“C-grade equipment: Costs 10,000 Equipment Points, Item Points, and Ability Points.”
“B-grade equipment: Costs 100,000 Equipment Points, Item Points, and Ability Points.
“A-grade equipment: Costs 1,000,000 Equipment Points, Item Points, and Ability Points.”
“S-grade equipment: Costs 10,000,000 Equipment Points, Item Points, and Ability Points”
“Please choose.”
Wu Yan opened up his menu.
Character: Wu Yan
Equipment Points: 1,100 Points
Item Points: 5,000 Points
Ability Points: 1,000 Points
Summoning Points: 1,000 Points
Level: 85
Wu Yan sighed after looking at his own points.
“I got played.”
He doesn’t even have enough points to get his points to 5 digits.
He originally had only 300 Summoning Points. But, before leaving Date A Live, he used his reserves to get enough points to summon Kaguya, Yuzuru, Origami, and Miku. He only had 1,000 points after that.
“Looks like I have to use my emergency funds again…”
Wu Yan wanted to cry when he took out his purse Ring of Gold. He sold everything other than 5 demiG.o.d magic crystals.
Obtained 1,020,000 Equipment Points, 1,150,000 Item Points, 1,010,000 Ability Points, and 40,000 summoning points
Wu Yan spent his entire fortune, now he only has five demiG.o.d magic crystals left.
Wu Yan isn’t pained by this great expenditure.
Because…
“System!”
Wu Yan roared.
“Give me the A-grade equipment!”
