Chapter 313 Artifact Test
"Can I try it now?" Rand asked hurriedly when he saw that Lysa wanted to lie down and pretend to be a cat or dog again.
"Okay," Lysa said.
With Lysa's help, Rand entered the armor.
This set of power armor is not particularly large, only about two meters long.
The material should be magic metal, which is very sufficient and thick.
Of course it is also very heavy. After Rand entered the power armor, it was very difficult for him to move.
However, Rand was very surprised that he could walk barely.
I thought it would be so heavy that I couldn't move at all.
The helmet part is very retro and the vision is severely obstructed, but Rand now has the favor of the Torch Goddess to replace some of his perception, so he feels okay.
Lysa stood aside and said, "The material chosen is a relatively light magic metal, and your physique is also very strong, much stronger than that of ordinary elite professionals."
Then Lysa pointed to a huge greatsword nearby and said, "This is a weapon."
Rand said helplessly: "Even if I'm not wearing this iron suit, I can't lift this sword."
Rand thought this giant sword was just a decoration, but it turned out to be a weapon.
“Just turn on the power.”
The most essential difference between artifacts and other weapons is that artifacts have some special attributes, such as Olenna's Dawnbreaker, which can break magic.
Elsa's newly acquired dagger can have a "bubble" time.
Rand's artifact has the effect of infusing energy.
The structure is based on the construct creatures of the ruins, with changed materials, and is forged through a mysterious artifact forge involving extremely complex magic and alchemy.
In this era, providing power through energy is a great magical secret. After all, this world doesn't even have a steam engine.
Rand started the power.
Mechanical components operate.
Rand finally no longer felt like he was trapped in an iron coffin.
The giant iron man, more than two meters tall, pulled out the super-giant sword that was deeply embedded in the ground.
Then he made a standard sword-swinging motion.
The giant sword, as big and thick as a door panel, swirled in the air.
"I feel like I'm invincible now." Rand's voice came through the artifact, sounding a little muffled.
Then the energy dimmed.
As expected, it can only last five seconds.
The greatsword was thrust back into the ground.
Rand climbs out of the power armor with Lysa's help.
“Is there a way to find a suitable energy source?”
“The White King’s Everfrost Hearth might work,” Lysa commented. “But don’t get your hopes too high.”
Rand nodded. In fact, Rand had other ways he wanted to try.
For example, insert some bones into the power armor and then summon the undead to assist in movement.
After taking Lisa for a few more laps on the tenth floor, Rand finally returned to the outside of the resort until almost evening.
Just as Rand was about to enter the holiday villa, Inspector Elsa appeared in front of Rand.
Erza first glanced at Ryza, whose knees and elbows were still a little dusty, and then reported, "Something happened."
Rand's originally relaxed expression turned serious: "What's the matter?"
"There are corpses, turned into undead." Elsa said.
"Damn it, a tide of the undead is coming towards us?"
"No, you need to go and see the specific situation in person."
Rand followed Elsa to the location in a hurry.
A gathering place for the Tauren.
A skeleton minotaur surrounded by many minotaurs.
Seeing Rand coming, the minotaurs moved aside a little so that Rand could see clearly what was happening.
Shasa also came back from the Underdark today, because originally, there was a religious service tomorrow.
The names of the soldiers who died in the battle would be engraved on the stone pillars in the upper hideout, and Rand would personally hold a prayer ceremony.
If the battle situation was urgent, the soldiers' bodies were burned on the spot.
But if it is not so urgent, the bodies of the soldiers will sometimes be brought back to Crescent Territory for cremation.
Rand would specifically explain the necessity of burning the bodies and tell the living people that after the warriors' bodies were burned and purified, their souls would still protect this land.
Now, Rand recognized this skeleton minotaur, the same minotaur whose face was split open during the Paladin massacre.
Rand asked, "Have other undead revived?"
"No." Elsa replied.
"So what's the situation now?" Rand asked. The skeleton minotaur in front of him had no intention of attacking his fellow minotaurs.

The dark green soul fire swayed between its cracked skull.
"Has it ever participated in the eradication of the Scourge Cult, or has it come into contact with related items?" Karin was the one who spoke.
Rand was not surprised to see Karin here.
This saint of the Torch Church is very sensitive to evil.
Plus, she is still a detective and is very sensitive to the incident.
Rand turned his head to look at Ellie who was also rushing over.
Ellie nodded. "Yes, it was a missionary of Crescent Territory for a long time before it died, and participated in many operations against the undead."
"It's the Orb of Calamity," Karin said. "If the Orb of Calamity is bitten or crushed while alive, there is a very small chance that it can kill the creature directly, and then transform it into an undead after death."
But now the state of this undead is really strange.
It seemed to want to speak, but it had no such thing as vocal cords.
"Everyone disperse, I will handle it." Rand ordered solemnly, "I will give you an explanation afterwards."
The Tauren of the Tauren tribe left.
Rand asked the staff of the hideout to drag the flesh and blood of the minotaur skeleton over, and then drove the staff of the hideout away.
"I'm going to do a little evil experiment." Rand looked at Karin.
"I'm blind and can't see," Karin said.
Rand activated the Blessing of the God of Struggle.
The minotaur flesh and blood was slowly installed on it.
The last time Rand activated the Bone Snake, he still had some Scourge Orbs left.
After Rand installed the flesh and blood, he also inlaid the Orb of Scourge.
Theoretically, yes.
Rand launched the Call of the Scourge.
This tauren missionary, this great warrior, can finally speak.
But only the trembling of the vocal cords could be heard.
It does not organize language.
Karin walked around the Minotaur Undead and said, "It must have had dirty hands and secretly kept the Orb of Scourge."
Karin thought about it and lit a small flame in front of the minotaur undead.
The Minotaur Undead suddenly attacked Karin.
"There is a lot of hostility towards the Torch Church's forces," Karin commented after dodging it easily.
"You can investigate the rumors. There are many similar incidents recorded in the files of the Torch Church." Karin said, "For example, people believe that they can still fight after death, so they use the Orb of Calamity before they die."
"But the undead born in that way are the most common undead, full of hatred for the living. However, this minotaur undead seems to be hostile only to the power of the Torch Church."
