Chapter 131: Equipment
"I have understood fifty percent of the cosmic Formation Law so far, and I think that within three weeks at most, I will have completely understood it, one hundred percent!"
Imris slapped his chest and said confidently, then deactivated his power.
"The Formation Law is not limited to controlling the shaping of darkness. It can shape any material and any energy. Show me what you can do." Rios narrowed his eyes and said in a serious tone.
Mhm!
Imris nodded and closed his eyes, while his mother, Jasmine, looked at him worriedly. After several seconds, Imris opened his eyes, and the ground began to tremble. A few branches of Rios’s throne began to move, the water inside the cup began to ripple, and the flames in the torches began to flicker!
The dirt rose from beneath Imris and began to form into the shape of a statue, some parts of the throne made of branches began transforming into the shapes of butterflies, the water inside the cup began taking the form of a fish, and the flames in the torches began transforming into the form of a dragon!
"Controlling matter and energy is not a problem for me, and I can control the shape and form of four materials at the same time." Imris said confidently, then shrugged his shoulders and tilted his head with an innocent smile. "But I still find controlling darkness easier and more comfortable for me!"
"Good, good!" Rios’s eyes lit up when he saw how much Imris had progressed, and he praised him, then took a green box out of his storage space!
"This is a gift for you as a reward for your efforts. Keep this up, and I’ll give you much better gifts."
Imris’s eyes lit up, and he looked toward his mother first, who smiled at him in return. "Congratulations."
Imris happily nodded at her and reached his hand toward the box, took it, then opened it to see what was inside.
"This is amazing!"
Imris’s smile stretched from ear to ear, and his eyes shone like a child who had just been given the best toy in the world.
But Imris’s gift was not a toy. It was two daggers!
Imris grabbed two slightly long black and purple daggers, then began playing with them and swinging them around!
"You have to be careful!" By nature as a mother, Jasmine became worried when she saw her son swinging those sharp daggers, which could barely even be seen due to how fast Imris was moving them!
"Don’t worry about him. I’m almost certain there is no one among the Elves who can control daggers like he does." Rios waved his hands, preventing Jasmine from interfering, and continued watching Imris’s incredible skill in controlling the daggers, then asked, "What do you think of them?"
Upon hearing Rios’s voice, Imris immediately stopped and looked at Rios with excited and grateful eyes. "They’re amazing and perfectly suited for me. Not only are they extremely sharp and their weight is perfect for me, but they don’t make any sound at all, no matter how much I swing them."
"Hahahaha, that’s natural for a weapon of the highest Lev—"
Before Rios could finish his words, another voice interrupted him!
"I was told that you summoned me."
Elena entered and walked toward the throne, then kissed Rios on the cheek and sat on her designated throne, winking toward Jasmine, letting her know who the queen here was and who the true wife was.
"My Queen!" Imris immediately bowed to her, and his mother Jasmine quickly followed him.
"My Queen!"
"Yes, I did summon you." Rios nodded with a smile and took out another green box. "Here, this is the monthly shipment I promised you."
When Elena saw this box, her eyes immediately trembled. The last time Rios brought a box like this, he had changed the city and the lives of the Elves by a full one hundred and eighty degrees.
Elena reached out and grabbed the box, then quickly opened it and found twenty rings inside, just like last time!
Elena sent her spiritual sense into the twenty rings, and her eyes quickly widened as she looked toward Rios. "Is this..."
"Yes, it’s the same amount of food as last time, enough to last us for more than twenty years, in addition to one hundred thousand sets of Level Four equipment like the one this boy is wearing, including body armor and weapons." Rios pointed toward Imris with his finger, then continued, "Put those Level Three armors aside for now and equip the entire army with this armor. From today onward, the army’s equipment will be limited to this armor and anything of a higher Level!"
Elena looked at the rings inside the box as though they were the most important thing in life.... This armor and equipment would elevate the City of Light to an entirely different Level!
The Level Three armor Rios had brought about a month ago, which he was now telling her to put aside, had previously only been worn by the Royal Guard commanders and some prominent warriors.
Armor that had accumulated over thousands of years in the City of Light, with the strongest magical technology used in its creation, and which the kingdom had only been able to produce a few hundred sets of. Yet Rios had brought one hundred thousand sets of them about a month ago, raising the strength of the City of Light to unprecedented Levels!
But now, Rios had brought one hundred thousand sets of Level Four equipment, equipment whose power was rivaled only by the sacred weapons of the races!
If Level Four equipment had raised the army of the City of Light to unprecedented Levels, then this equipment had raised the strength of the City of Light to an unimaginable Level that had never existed in history!
"But wasn’t this delivery due a few days later than this..." Elena’s gaze shifted between the box and Rios several times, desperately trying to convince herself that this was real!
"Well, what can I say? Timelines differ from one world to another. What matters now is that the army is fully equipped with this equipment within two hours, because we’ll be departing shortly." Rios smiled and waved his hand, then took out another ring. "And take this as well."
Elena took the ring with trembling hands and examined it, then looked toward Rios. "What is this?!"
There were weapons inside this ring, but their aura was clearly stronger than Level Four weapons!
"They are Level Five weapons! There were originally ten weapons, but I gave the pair of daggers to little Imris, so you only have nine left.
You, along with Thandria, Etham, Ethar, and Ayat, will each get one, leaving you with four weapons in the end. You can distribute them to whoever you deem suitable." Rios waved his hands as though these decisions were nothing important to him!
Elena looked at the ring in disbelief, then finally looked toward Rios.
"But what about you? Won’t you take a weapon for yourself as well?!"
Faced with this question, Rios smiled and shook his head, saying confidently,
"It seems you’ve gotten too used to this form of mine and forgotten that I am originally a monster, a tree.
And monsters and trees do not need weapons in battle!"
