Sethis Kingdom, within the manor being rebuilt by the Krengris family.
Yang Yu applied 520 glue to the edges of the broken shield, attempting to piece together the damaged [Cocoon to Butterfly] back to its original state.
The process went smoothly, and, besides some glue at the seams, the shield was practically as good as new.
As soon as Yang Yu moved, there was a snapping sound, and [Cocoon to Butterfly] shattered into two pieces, falling to the ground.
The tools obtained from the system had quality and effects far superior to those in the world where Yang Yu previously lived.
Unfortunately, the quality of this glue can’t bond broken legendary equipment together.
Due to the fracture of [Cocoon to Butterfly], it couldn’t switch its status, rendering the skills in its three forms unusable.
Each piece of legendary equipment possesses self-repair abilities.
As long as the fragments are brought close, the legendary equipment will gradually revert to its original form.
However, Yang Yu isn’t aware of the repair time for legendary equipment.
No one knows when [Cocoon to Butterfly] will be fully repaired.
Yang Yu has only this one legendary shield.
His luck is truly questionable; he has never obtained a legendary shield except through exchange.
On several occasions, Yang Yu had the chance to acquire a legendary shield, but considering his teammates needed equipment more than he did, he chose suitable equipment for them.
Besides, so what if he had another legendary shield?
Facing an opponent like Ammonval, any extra legendary shield would certainly get damaged in the next battle.
The only consolation for Yang Yu is that the progress bar for [Cocoon to Butterfly] is still increasing. At the natural growth pace, in just over half a month, [Cocoon to Butterfly] could truly complete its transformation.
Once transformed, [Cocoon to Butterfly] might even self-repair.
Yang Yu is unwilling to give up on this possibility.
But half a month is always too long. No one knows how the Demon King Army’s offensives might change during this time.
Yang Yu and his group can’t just sit around waiting for the shield to recover.
After considering, Yang Yu first took out the drawn welding tool to weld steel bars onto the back of [Cocoon to Butterfly], then used strips of epic whips woven into a net to cover [Cocoon to Butterfly].
Duke Doro Krenge shook his head at Yang Yu’s actions; although epic equipment may be nothing to such figures, such good equipment should not be treated so carelessly.
Yang Yu glared at Duke Doro Krenge, "This is my equipment, and I’ll do what I want with it without you interfering."
Duke Doro Krenge doesn’t understand how important [Cocoon to Butterfly] is to Yang Yu, hence doesn’t comprehend Yang Yu’s seemingly chaotic actions.
But Yang Yu’s companions and the [Red Blood Rose] do understand.
Bai Jin and the others had communicated with [Red Blood Rose], hoping they could share some of their reserves and provide Yang Yu with a legendary shield.
Gordon bluntly told Bai Jin, "The fact that you all have so much legendary equipment already makes it quite exceptional."
Currently, the number of legendary equipment possessed by Bai Jin and his group rivals an S-Class adventure group with a three to four hundred-year history.
Legendary equipment generally only comes from large underground mazes, with other legitimate sources being the Dragon God Conference and tasks issued by dragons.
The Dragon God Conference is held once in ten years, and only three people manage to stand out.
Tasks issued by dragons are encounters of a century.
Don’t be misled by the current plethora of underground mazes popping up like mushrooms after rain...
The sum from the past hundred years doesn’t even match these few years.
Moreover, there are many types of legendary equipment.
Even among tens of thousands of legendary equipment, when categorized into specific types, the numbers are pathetically scarce.
Even S-Class adventure groups with the foundation of [Red Blood Rose] can barely equip with legendary gear, let alone lend out legendary equipment.
Every piece of legendary equipment is cherished by adventure groups.
It’s rare to see someone like [Sky-breaking Stone]’s Deputy Leader lend out their legendary equipment so decisively.
Gordon stated he’d consult acquaintances, network to determine who owns legendary shields, or find some epic-level shields.
As those shields will likely turn into consumables, Gordon suggests Bai Jin and his group prepare items for exchange in advance.
Bai Jin and his group hesitated, eventually turning to Yang Yu, leaving the decision up to him.
Waving the overly-horned shield, Yang Yu planned to test its strength. After hearing Bai Jin’s group’s words, he immediately said if Gordon could find them, go ahead. As for the rest, he’d figure something out; and if worse comes to worst, he’d shamelessly crowdfund from the Luo Ze Empire and Wansheng Republic.
After all, Yang Yu’s thick skin isn’t a trait he developed overnight. freewёbnoνel.com
Before testing the shield’s sturdiness, seeing everyone gathering around, Yang Yu naturally started discussing counter-strategies against Ammonval and [Iron Steel Dragon] Black Diamond Lorne.
[Iron Steel Dragon] Black Diamond Lorne’s ability to manipulate steel left a deep impression on Yang Yu.
Without the obstruction from those Steel Eagles, Yang Yu might have single-handedly forced Ammonval’s blood volume to extremely low levels.
If he could have lowered Ammonval’s blood volume...
Then Yang Yu wouldn’t have needed to support Qiuye’s escape, but would have charged into the fiery sea alone, to avoid any long delays.
With this failed plan, everything must be reconsidered.
Bai Jin and his group share an oddly unanimous stance on [Iron Steel Dragon] Black Diamond Lorne; lacking intelligence on him, but based on his currently displayed prowess, they shouldn’t directly assault him. Instead, they should find ways to isolate his interference.
The scout’s intelligence showed the Demon Clan builds teleportation arrays and signal towers in the back after occupying lands, to continuously send large troops to the front lines and maintain control.
Before Bai Jin’s retreat, fragments from analyzing the Steel Eagles were collected.
Long-distance control of Steel Eagles is near impossible, and could only be done via the signal tower.
Perhaps before next action, they could attempt to destroy the signal tower, interfering with [Iron Steel Dragon] Black Diamond Lorne’s control over Steel Eagles.
As for Ammonval...
Yang Yu and his team have seen Ammonval’s strength, and nearly all his skills and tools revolve around flames. If they don’t deal with the pesky fire, eliminating him would be rather difficult.
Moreover, next time he’ll sure be on guard.
Destroying the signal tower would attract the attention of the Demon King and [Iron Steel Dragon] Black Diamond Lorne, leaving not much strategy time for Yang Yu and his team.
Yang Yu and his group passionately discussed, while Qiuye, who recently joined the team, found it challenging to adapt, unable to keep up with the discussion pace.
Qiuye could understand what Yang Yu and his group were talking about but didn’t quite know where their wild plans derived from; they seemed overly complex.
Having lived a straightforward life for the past decade, Qiuye wasn’t skilled at pondering complex problems.
Feeling left out, Qiuye sighed in the corner:
"If only there could be a place where the flames couldn’t ignite at all..."
