The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming - Chapter 243
Chapter 243: Chapter 237: All-Arms Hall
Translator: 549690339 1
The biggest difference between humans and beasts is that humans create and use arcane implements to arm themselves.
Before the Era of Beast Control, a Trainer who could defeat a beast of the same rank solely relying on their personal strength was considered an exceptional existence.
However, in this era, a Trainer fully armed with high-level arcane implements, even without a pet to protect themselves, can still defeat or even slaughter several beasts of the same strength.
Similarly, if a pet is equipped with armed arcane implements, the pet’s innate physical strength and casting abilities can be further enhanced by the weapons crafted by human blacksmiths, maximizing its power.
However, because the destructive or defensive power of a pet will be significantly increased after using pet arms, it’s very easy for the pet to die in battle if not handled properly.
Moreover, excessive external force can affect a Trainer’s nurturing of their pet, so generally, competitions for new Trainers do not allow the use of pet arms.
In contrast, professional Trainers who explore dungeons and adventure are often found using pet arms.
Based on past rules, even the national Arcane Star College’s Elite Tournament does not allow contestants to use any pet arms.
■’This year’s qualifier rules have changed so much; could there be a new type of era-defining pet arm emerging?” David Jones pondered as he looked at the rules on his phone.
Though a Class III pet arm would not have much impact on Rainbow’s power, if he missed first place due to this slight difference, he might as well be depressed to death.
David Jones: “By the way, do you know any rehable pet arms shops near Rosewood College?”
Upon hearing the question, Margaret Yule didn’t answer immediately but thought for a while before replying.
“Both the Refinement Tower and All-Arms Hall produce pretty famous pet arms, and their quality is undoubtedly good; the only downside is that the prices are a bit high.”
“If you’re looking for ice-type pet arms, the Refinement Tower is a good choice, but if you want dragon-type pet arms, I recommend All-Arms Hall.” David’s eyebrows furrowed, as even Margaret, a wealthy woman, found the prices of these shops a bit expensive. He couldn’t afford spending the Star coins in his wallet at the moment and wondered whether these shops accepted Magic Core trading.
Seeing David’s troubled expression, Margaret smiled, “Let’s eat first, and after the meal I’ll take you to both shops for a stroll. If you don’t have enough Star coins, I can lend you some.”
“TO be honest, if I hadn’t met you in the Earth Labyrinth, I might have already bought a return ticket to Waterland City!”
David Jones:
It’s normal for friends to help each other out, so he must not be a gold digger!
Rosewood City.
An exquisitely carved ancient wooden plaque hangs above the entrance of All-Arms Hall, with the three bold and elegant characters catching the eye.
As Margaret Yule entered the All-Arms Hall, an exquisite, well-dressed, and sexy young girl in a cheongsam immediately approached them.
Without beating around the bush, Margaret asked, “Do you have any Class III
SS tier Dragon-Type Pet armaments?”
“Yes, please follow me.” The girl’s eyes lit up upon hearing Margaret’s question, her smile more radiant as she led the way.
Dragon-Type Pet armaments are the most expensive, representing a lucrative business opportunity for her.
“The number of Trainers here is really fewer than I thought, it seems that all top-ranked contestants have prepared their pet arms in advance.” David glanced at the sparsely populated shop before entering a luxuriously furnished private room with Margaret.
-Please wait for a moment, we have three Class III SS tier Dragon-Type Pet arms available in our inventory. I’ll bring them to you shortly.” The girl left the private room after speaking.
As they sat down, David suddenly felt the Dragon-Wielding power in his Arcane Star begin to fluctuate. This sensation was similar to when he encountered Dragon Blood Fruit in the Earth Labyrinth.
“Could it be possible to get a bargain in buying pet arms this time?” David felt joy in his heart.
David didn’t have to wait long, as in half a minute, the girl returned with a silk-covered jade tray in her hands, carrying three boxes emitting strange auras and two books.
She placed the jade tray on a crystal table and handed the books to David and
Margaret in turn.
“Hello, this is a detailed introduction to the three dragon-type pet arms.
David opened the book to take a look:
[Dragon-Wing Armor]: Class III SS tier Dragon armament, can automatically adjust its size according to the pet’s physique, extends up to eight meters and shrinks down to one meter.
Upon wearing, it can enhance the power and defensive capabilities of a dragon-type pet beast’s wings. Comes with a Rapid Charge skill, which allows the Dragon Pet’s speed and power to instantly increase fourfold within a short period of time.
Selling Price: 15 million Star coins.
[Dragon Claw Arm]: Class III SS tier growable Dragon armament, automatically adjusts and changes shape. Increases the power of dragon-type pet claw-based skills, with a maximum power increase of five levels. Prolonged usage can significantly improve the dragon pet’s physical fitness and claw defense.
Selling Price: 35 million Star coins.
[Magic Bead Necklace]: A Class III SS tier dragon-type armament. When worn, it reduces the casting time of all skills for dragon-type pet beasts. The reduction in casting time depends on the power of the dragon pet, with a maximum reduction of half of skill charging time and a one-level increase in skill power. (Note: Only effective for Class IV skills and below, and must be worn by a Dragon Pet.)
Selling Price: 210 million Star coins.
“Goodness, the pet arms here are really expensive!” David couldn’t help but exclaim when he saw the price column.
While a Class III arcane implement usually costs around 1 million Star coins, the cheapest armament here costs 15 million Star coins, which even for a dragon-type pet armament is quite overpriced.
It’s worth mentioning that 15 million Star coins can even buy a top-tier Elite breed’s cub.
Moreover, the outrageous price of 210 million Star coins can actually buy a Commander cub or a rare Level VI King resource!
“What do you think?”
Ever since entering the private room, Margaret had been observing David. Noticing his amazed expression, she couldn’t help but ask.
‘■Aside from the first one not being a good match for Rainbow, I need to see the actual items for the other two,” David shook his head.
It turns out picking up a bargain won’t be that simple after all!
David had hoped that the source of his fluctuating Dragon-Wielding power would come from the first two pet armaments, as buying those would mean pure profit. However, if it was the third one, he would not be certain whether he profited or lost..
