He strode over and took the [Dragon Armor].
The soft armor was brown, covered with sturdy dragon scales, and in the center was a fist-sized rhombus-shaped earth-elemental gem.
A six-pointed star magic circle is engraved around the gemstone.
Linda could sense the powerful magical fluctuations within the gem; it should be a level 30 magic core from a guardian of the secret realm.
The only materials he provided to Gale were the skin of the earth dragon and the magic core of the shapeshifter.
This level 30 Secret Realm Guardian Magic Core was clearly purchased by Gale personally.
"Thanks," Linda said solemnly.
"Hey, it was all the captain's idea. Anyway, he doesn't lack magic cores, so instead of wasting them, he might as well use them on this soft armor," Gale laughed.
Linda nodded, knowing that the other party was just trying to make it easier for her to accept. Level 30 Secret Realm Guardian Magic Cores were a form of hard currency, even more valuable than gold coins; how could anyone complain about having too many?
Linda's gaze fell on the equipment in her hand, and the attribute panel popped up:
【Name: Dragon Armor】
[Type: Equipment - Chest]
[Quality: Epic Three Stars]
[Level: 25]
[Attribute values: HP +3000, Earth damage reduction 20%, Defense +100]
[Equipment Rating: 2780. A reliable soft armor crafted from the hide of an earth dragon; perhaps you could wear it to tell your little earth dragon that your mother's clothes are very warm inside.]
After reading the equipment description, Linda thought to herself, "Wow!"
It has 3000 HP, 100 defense, and 20% earth damage reduction.
The Royal Sword only has a rating of 1923, while the soft armor made from earth dragon hide has a rating as high as 2780.
As expected of equipment crafted from dragon-type materials.
In this world, anything related to dragons, even sub-dragon species like giant lizard-like creatures, is incredibly powerful.
Without saying a word, Linda took off her original purple equipment and put on the Dragon Armor.
The health bar number skyrocketed.
It's gotten to a terrifying point!
If Linda were to tell anyone, the entire empire would probably be in an uproar.
How much health shield does a squishy support have at level 26?
Even heavily armored warriors aren't that tall!
The truly fragile Monica, at level 26, only has around 3200 points.
Linda is four times taller than Monica.
This doesn't even take defense into account.
If defense is taken into account, Linda's durability is more than 10 times that of Monica.
Wearing the Dragon Armor, Linda felt more confident about her next plan.
"Regarding the ghost, Kam..."
He recounted what happened at the Secret Realm Plaza.
Gail's eyes widened in disbelief: "He almost attacked you in public? This Cam... didn't have his head opened for a brain tumor? I suggest the priest get a hammer and give him a good whack."
Then, Gail rested her chin on her hand and pondered, "Judging from this, Cam is impulsive and might pose a danger to Luminous Flower. You might as well move to the White Dove Adventurer Group's villa for safety these days."
"No, my idea is to solve this once and for all."
Linda smiled kindly and began to explain her thoughts.
After listening, Gail's expression turned serious, and he pondered for a long time.
Linda wasn't in a hurry; her plan did indeed carry some risk. Gale, despite his frivolous appearance, was actually a very cautious adventurer; otherwise, he wouldn't be qualified to lead the White Dove Adventurer Group.
A few minutes later, Gail made a decision after a moment's thought.
"Linda, I support your approach. The success rate is at least 70%, and even if it fails, the White Dove Adventure Team will cover it."
"But... are you really confident you can deal with Cam? He's a Star Rank, even if he's only level 30, the weakest Star Rank is still a Star Rank."
Gail said in a deep voice, "Once the arrow is released, there's no turning back. Think it through."
“Master will never fail.” Standing behind Linda, Tasia said with pride, “Those who are targeted by Master have only one fate: to fall into an abyss and die in agony!”
“I believe in Captain,” Monica said.
Linda shrugged. "You see, I can't let my teammates down."
Gail nodded: "Then it's decided. I'll go and make the arrangements first, so things will be easier later."
"Thank you for your help."
Linda got up and helped Gail into the carriage.
...
night.
White Dove City Suburbs, Prison Building No. 4.
In the spacious study, two adults dressed in imperial official robes were talking.
"Harus has investigated and found no connection with the three assassins. According to Imperial law, the principle of 'innocent until proven guilty' applies, so we cannot convict him."
The warden's name was Lucky, a tall white man with dreadlocks.
Lu Qi took a sip of coffee and handed a stack of paper documents to the Imperial Knight across from him, who was wearing a four-flame cloak.
Lemi, a level 30 Star-Rank Adventurer.
The other party also has another identity: the Minister of the Imperial Enforcement Department of White Dove City.
His status was second only to the mayor and the president of the Adventurers' Guild, and much higher than Warden Lucky.
Lucia maintained a respectful attitude towards Lemi throughout.
"When will you release him?" Lemi asked ambiguously, without even glancing at the stack of investigation documents that represented Halus's 'innocence'.
Having spent over a decade in officialdom, Lu Qi immediately understood.
He said, "Theoretically, it's today."
"But the investigation into Halus is not yet sufficient. I have decided to detain Halus for another month."
Upon hearing this, Lemi frowned.
Isn't that enough?
Lu Qi murmured to himself, then quickly added, "Three years ago, we discovered that the Ghost was smuggling magic potions of unknown origin, which led to the deaths of several adventurers."
