Swamp Lord with an Intelligence System

Chapter 223: Chapter 119: Desolate Tomb’s Metamorphosis, Armor Forged, and Weilu City’s Great Power Surge

The next day, September 28th.

Lear slept in until the sun was high in the sky and got up feeling refreshed.

This time, he finally got enough sleep.

The exhaustion from days of intense battles was swept away by the rest.

After a simple wash, he stepped out of City Hall, full of energy.

Just as he was about to inspect the territory, he suddenly noticed the blacksmith shop was particularly bustling, surrounded by a large crowd of residents.

Recalling what Bain said yesterday, his curiosity was piqued, and he strode forward.

Seeing Lear, the surrounding residents immediately made way, constantly placing a hand on their chest in greeting.

“Good day, Lord.”

“Greetings to you, my lord…”

“…”

They were exceedingly respectful, with no hint of reluctance. Instead, those who were close enough to receive a nod from Lear felt greatly honored.

This was the sole Sovereign of Weilu City and their protector.

No degree of respect would be too much.

His esteemed reputation was evident from the smallest details.

Lear nodded as he made his way through the crowd and immediately saw the blacksmith shop.

But at this moment, the building had undergone significant changes compared to before.

Originally, it was just a two-story building with a yard at the back.

But now, five three-story buildings stood tall, forming a small cluster of buildings.

These buildings were spaced ten meters apart and lined up in sequence.

The crowd was busy transporting ore, and iron blocks moved in and out, incredibly busy.

A five-meter-high vine wall surrounded the blacksmith shop, isolating a backyard with a diameter of a hundred meters, where several slightly lower warehouses stood.

From this, one could see the thriving development of the blacksmith shop at a glance.

Upon hearing the commotion outside, a large crowd flowed out of the blacksmith shop as Lear arrived.

The Fray leader, Bulin, led the way, followed closely by a dozen people carrying a set of pitch-black armor.

Upon seeing Lear, Bulin stepped forward excitedly, greeting him.

“Good day, my lord…”

Then he couldn’t wait to straighten up, his face full of excitement as he spoke.

“We have not let you down, the armor has been forged!!”

As he spoke, the dozen people behind him each held up a corner, struggling to bring the armor to Lear’s side.

At this moment, everyone was standing proudly, their faces full of pride.

This set of armor, they had personally participated in its forging!

The honor was also theirs!

Lear’s eyes brightened, and a sense of anticipation rose within him.

Now he examined it closely.

This set of armor was black as ink, without decorative patterns, giving off a simple yet substantial feel.

In the details, the forging was very smooth, making it look less like mass-produced standard equipment and more like a finely crafted superior item.

In the sunlight, it reflected the unique cold sheen of metal.

Its design was evidently made for the Cold-blooded Cavalry, larger than regular warrior armor, and its weight could be felt without even touching it.

Rock Heavy Armor (Exclusive Equipment for Cold-blooded Cavalry)

[Level]: 3 Stars

[Traits]: 1. As solid as rock, the armor’s defense is increased by an additional 70%, reducing damage taken by 40%.

2. Full body armor, with unique inscriptions inside that allow the armor to automatically disperse damage. Unless the entire set of armor is shattered, it will not be penetrated or damaged.

3. Light as a feather, heavy as a mountain: the wearer reduces armor weight by 60%, and the armor can automatically fit the wearer perfectly, allowing activities without restriction. When attacking, the inscriptions can be activated to instantly increase armor weight by 3 times, with the wearer unaffected by this effect.

4. Automatic repair: Through special forging, the armor can slowly self-repair when damaged, and energy can be infused to speed up the repair process.

[Evaluation]: This is a high-tier armor forged with unique methods, with traits exceeding the 3-star level. Unfortunately, it is limited by the materials, which restricts the level evaluation.

Exclusive armor for the Cold-blooded Cavalry, 3-star level, with 4 traits!!

Lear felt somewhat envious.

If they had equipped the Cold-blooded Cavalry with this earlier, those Fallen Demons probably wouldn’t have been able to breach the defense!

The first trait alone, which increases defense by 70% and reduces damage taken by 40%, was enough to make his scalp tingle.

But that’s not all—spreading damage, light as a feather, heavy as a mountain, plus automatic repair.

These traits combined made this armor undeniably powerful!

If the Cold-blooded Cavalry were fully equipped with it, how much combat strength would it enhance?

The Fierce Wild Lizard stands over 3 meters tall, and, combined with the over 2-meter-tall Wetland Lizardman Warrior, their weight is already substantial.

Donning heavy armor, doesn’t that make them a heavy armored tank?

In an instant, they could form a torrent of steel!

He could hardly imagine what kind of enemy could withstand this army’s charge!

Filled with excitement, Lear’s eyes caught sight of the Cold-blooded Cavalry patrolling nearby, and he immediately waved them over.

He directly had one of the leaders try on the armor.

The Cold-blooded Cavalry member couldn’t take his eyes off the Rock Heavy Armor.

Amidst excitement, he struggled to put it on with both hands and feet.

People around also assisted.

Putting on this heavy armor just by oneself definitely required effort.

A moment later, the entire Cold-blooded Cavalry was covered in armor.

The elbows, ankles, knees, and other key areas were also protected by soft armor.

Lowering the helmet’s visor, the eyes were covered by half-hollowed armor.

Under the sunlight, the armor blazed with a radiant glow.

The remaining Fierce Wild Lizard—not only the body but even its mouth was designed uniquely. When opened, it could easily snap shut.

When closing its mouth, the upper and lower armor would cover it.

Even its toes were equipped with extra steel claws as offensive weapons.

The entire Cold-blooded Cavalry looked like a flawlessly sculpted statue.

Flesh and steel, heavy cavalry!

Lear felt fantastic upon seeing this.

“Bulin, how long until our army can be fully equipped with the Rock Heavy Armor?”

The leader of the Fray was filled with fervor as he spoke.

“My lord, it will only take 7 days!!”

“Currently, our production capacity only requires 7 days to equip all Cold-blooded Cavalry with heavy armor!”

In this Fantasy World, the productivity of ordinary people seemed very lagging, but in certain aspects, it was exceptionally advanced.

Contradictory yet harmonious.

Under the piling resources of Weilu City, the production scale of the Rock Armor had expanded astonishingly.

Lear’s lips curved upwards.

days!

For 3-star-level heavy armor, this was nothing short of a miracle.

And once the armor production is finished, the Abyssal Demon Iron Ore is still waiting.

Now that the blacksmith shop’s production capacity has increased, its usefulness becomes significant.

Not only the Cold-blooded Cavalry but also the Dark Night Elves and Ancient Treant Guardians… they can all be armed.

These are all crucial military forces.

In the future, when the territory’s army is fully equipped with high-level equipment, it can even be used to produce weapons for external trade.

The arms business, no matter which world, always represents extremely high profits.

Currently, Weilu City’s development momentum is excellent, but there are still vast areas of emptiness that require massive resources to fill.
