Chapter 215 Rune: Flesh Armored Blessing of Abundance
"Flesh Armor" is a special skill that improves along with the user's physical strength. Even if it is damaged, it can be restored through healing magic.
This is the most obvious advantage of this skill! Especially Tang Zheng's "Degraded Flesh Armor", although the defense ability is only half of Tang Zheng's own value, it has broken through the situation of being irreplaceable.
This skill.
In Tang Zheng's hands, it turned into a full body armor that could be summoned at any time.
It's just that the defense level is a little too low.
Tang Zheng originally only used this skill as a means to conceal his identity. However, when he saw the damaged armor of the gray dwarves with four highest-level runes.
An irresistible thought suddenly arose in my mind!
What if these four runes were engraved on his "Flesh Armor·Full Armor"? As soon as this thought came to his mind.
Tang Zheng couldn't help but want to experiment, which led to the situation before him.
Facing this group of dwarf craftsmen who were still somewhat confused.
"That's right, everyone. This armor that can repair itself automatically will replace the higher-grade metals you mentioned."
Tang Zheng spoke again, his tone serious: "You need a higher grade of metal simply because ordinary metal cannot withstand the power of four high-level runes."
"And this full body armor I'm wearing may not be comparable to the higher-grade metals you mentioned, but it has the ability to repair itself automatically."
"Even if the armor is damaged during the engraving process, it can be repaired to ensure that the armor can continue to withstand the power of the runes."
The so-called damage caused by "not being able to withstand the force" is nothing more than a reduction in the durability of physical armor in Tang Zheng's eyes.
This kind of damage can be easily restored through therapeutic means.
"Is this okay?"
"How could I possibly know?"
"I have no idea what this human is thinking."
"Why does it feel a little crazy?"
"Hiss, did anyone see how this armor appeared? It's like it appeared out of thin air."
"It can actually repair itself. What a miraculous ability. Shouldn't this human in front of me be a magic caster? Why is he wearing armor?"
“…”
Low murmurs of discussion could be heard from the surrounding dwarves.
All the dwarf craftsmen were a little confused, whether it was engraving the highest level of runes or the completely unreasonable method before them.
All of this made the craftsmen feel a little overwhelmed as to where to start.
Creep
A dwarf with three ponytails squeezed up from the back and stared at Tang Zheng's full body armor breathlessly. It was the dwarf Gong De.
"You humans always come up with some weird ideas."
Gong De couldn't help but walk forward, blowing his beard with excitement, and carefully looked at the gray armor with a pair of shining eyes: "The surface of this armor has a layer of metallic luster, but it's actually not metal, right?"
"It's a special material that I've never seen before. It can actually repair things. It's really beyond imagination. Is it magic?"
Observed briefly.
Gong De suddenly raised his head and looked at Tang Zheng, whose face was covered by the helmet: "I think your idea is great!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gong De turned around and looked at the other dwarven craftsmen around him, and said excitedly: "Are you really going to make our dwarven technology disappear?"
"This is a great opportunity, isn't it?"
"I have always called myself a 'Lune Technology Development Expert', although there has been no progress so far. There is no way to shorten the time of demonization, nor is there a way to increase production."
"But these are just means. My ultimate goal is to find a technology that is unique to Rune and make Rune technology special so that it can be passed down thoroughly."
"There is such an opportunity in front of us now, are you still planning to give it up?"
Gong De clenched his fists and looked at all the dwarves excitedly, and his rough voice echoed through the mountain wall.
The dwarf craftsmen stared at Gond in amazement.
"Really? We never said we wouldn't do it."
"Gonde! You are too excited."
“…”
Voices came from among the dwarves.
The next moment.
A dwarf craftsman who looked older walked out of the crowd, passed the excited Gong De, and came in front of Tang Zheng.
"My lord human, there is one thing I want to confirm. Can you take off this armor?" said the dwarf craftsman.
"cannot."
Tang Zheng watched the scene quietly and shook his head.
"Then this is a bit troublesome. Even if the material problem is solved, the engraving process will generate extremely high temperatures, which is far beyond the ability of ordinary people to withstand."
As the dwarf craftsman spoke, he took out a fist-sized piece of ore with red lines on it.
"This is a metal called hot ore. As long as it is hit by a hard object, it will generate high temperatures. This temperature can easily melt steel."
"If the collision lasts for a long time, the temperature will be even higher. This is also an important way for us dwarves to forge weapons."
Since the dwarves live underground, they cannot use coal, firewood and other similar items to forge metal. The dwarf craftsman's meaning is very clear. If Tang Zheng is engraving in armor, the process of using hot ore will generate extremely high temperatures, which humans cannot bear.
"If that's the problem, then you don't have to worry. I have a way to resist high temperatures." When Tang Zheng heard this, he chuckled.
Hot ore can be used to forge metals, so the high temperature generated is at least 1500 degrees. If metals such as mithril and orichalcum are smelted, the temperature generated will probably be even higher.
However! With the ability to "invalidate fire attributes", such high temperatures have no effect on Tang Zheng at all.
"Then everyone, let's get started together."
The Minister of Forge, who was standing nearby, stepped forward at this time.
All the dwarf craftsmen looked at each other and divided into four groups, located in front, behind, left and right of Tang Zheng.
This is exactly the location where the four high-level runes need to be engraved!
"The four high-level runes need to be engraved at the same time. There cannot be the slightest mistake in the process."
The Minister of Blacksmithing spoke loudly, giving instructions and explanations, causing all the dwarf craftsmen to have serious and expectant looks on their faces.
Suddenly, several dwarf craftsmen moved at the same time.
Ding ding!
Ding ding!
The strange tool hit the "flesh armor" heavily at the same time, and the high temperature released by the hot ore began to burn the surface of the armor red.
Tang Zheng sat cross-legged on the ground, letting the dwarf craftsmen hammer and pound on his body, and took a deep breath.
He didn't know if he could succeed, but facing the great tomb that was coming in the future, he had to try various possibilities.
I glanced at the information about "Physical Armor":...
Skill: Deterioration·Physical Armor Level: Low Level (11~20)
Durability: 287 Physical Defense: 140 Magical Defense: 147 Effect: None
Introduction: None
…
The Runic script does not look complicated on the surface, and may appear to be some strange-looking symbols, but that is only a superficial phenomenon.
In fact, every Rune has special and complex magic patterns. The higher the level of the rune, the more complex and intricate the patterns.
Therefore, it takes more time to create a piece of Rune equipment, rather than simply enchanting it with magic technology.
As the days passed, Tang Zheng sat cross-legged in the same place, allowing these dwarf craftsmen to take turns engraving runes on his body.
Food and drinks had already been prepared in sufficient quantities, so these dwarf craftsmen did not need to worry about food at all and were fully immersed in the excitement of replicating high-level Rune equipment.
Tang Zheng was much more depressed.
Maintaining an action for a long time is a very painful thing, not to mention that he needs to always pay attention to the decrease in durability and recover from time to time.
As for eating, it is not a problem.
Kai's full-body helmet looks closed, but in fact the mask can be opened. However, in order to prevent unnecessary behavior, Tang Zheng basically only drinks some water.
Fortunately, he has reached the level of an "abnormal person" and his physical condition has improved a lot, otherwise ordinary people would simply not be able to endure it.
This state continued until the tenth day.
Middle-earth month, November 28th.
Lava zone.
The dwarf craftsmen were all lying on the ground exhausted, gasping for breath, but their faces were filled with excitement.
“Success!”
"This incredible thing was actually accomplished."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"I'm so tired, I want to take a nap!"
“…”
The Minister of Forge supported himself on the ground with his arms, his face full of fatigue from his heavy breathing, his eyes bloodshot as he stared at Tang Zheng's full body armor.
"This great masterpiece can actually appear in this world again." Minister Forge shouted excitedly and a little neurotically.
Snap!
“Finally it’s done.”
Tang Zheng stood up and spoke lightly, swinging his arms and legs to stretch his body, and the friction between his full body armor made a constant "creaking" sound.
He originally thought that he would fail, but he didn't expect that he actually succeeded. He was indeed excited, but not very thrilled.
After ten consecutive days, this excitement had long since faded.
Tang Zheng lowered his head and checked the full body armor that had been transformed into "Flesh Armor". Overall, there was no change from before, except for four more runes.
It looked inconspicuous, and there was no special energy reaction, but the information about "physical armament" had changed significantly.
…
Skill: Rune·Physical Armor Level: Low Level (11~20)
Durability: 287 Physical Defense: 140 Magical Defense: 147 Effect: Rune Enhancement·Blessing of Abundance——Can absorb the same type of substances and continuously strengthen and improve.
Introduction: An unexpected product that was enhanced using "Rune Technology" and "Degraded Flesh Armor".
…
There is no increase in the numerical value, but an ability called "Blessing of Abundance" appears in the effect.
Tang Zheng was shocked.
There wasn't much introduction to the effect, but it reminded him of the ballad that Minister Blacksmith had mentioned before in the Valley of Despair.
The last two sentences are: "Armor that devours ore, attached to the soul of the gray dwarf."
"That is a greatness that even ancient dragons would notice."
The reason why that piece of armor was called a failed work was because the ore used to make the armor was extremely rare.
As a result, the armor cannot be upgraded by absorbing ore the moment it is manufactured.
Tang Zheng speculated at the time that the ability to fuse the four highest-level characters might be related to "absorption" and "strengthening", and now this has been further confirmed.
"'Absorbing the same type of matter' to strengthen it."
Tang Zheng repeated these words in his mind, his eyes becoming brighter and brighter. The situation was indeed not much different from what he had guessed.
Armor made of special metals needs to absorb metals of the same type. If it is a material like "flesh armor", then it will naturally absorb the same material as the "flesh armor".
What is the material of the "flesh armor"?
Skin, teeth, nails, and so on.
"Just experiment."
Tang Zheng glanced at the tired and sleepy dwarf craftsmen, and in a flash, he entered the central area of the lava zone.
"Since this power comes from you, then use your corpse." Tang Zheng waved his hand, and the corpse of the Forest Sage King Hamsuke appeared on the ground.
The scorching temperature around him immediately caused the hair on the body of the Forest King to curl up, and a faint smell of burning filled the air.
Tang Zheng walked forward, raised his palm and placed it on the body of the Forest Sage King Hamsuke, and silently chanted in his heart: "Blessing of abundance."
Swish! The four runes on the gray full body armor suddenly flashed with a colorful luster, and then the center was the place where Tang Zheng's palm touched the forest wise king Hamsuke.
An invisible force was triggered.
Suddenly! The fur on the Forest King's body turned into a flowing substance, which was quickly absorbed by the gray armor. It was not just the fur.
The more than 20-meter-long tail, hard teeth, one-meter-long claws, and even the bones were absorbed by the gray armor.
It only took three breaths.
The corpse of the Forest Wise King Hamsuke in front of Tang Zheng had turned into a pool of pure flesh and blood, spreading on the ground, emitting a bloody smell.
The originally gray color of the armor became even darker.
Withdraw your palm.
Tang Zheng fell into a brief silence, closed his eyes and waited for a few seconds before opening them again.
"Jungle Speed!"
A ray of green light flashed across his entire body.
Tang Zheng's figure moved quickly, flashing back and forth on the open ground for a few times, and then he paused: "Tail attack!"
Crash!
At lightning speed, a 20m long grey whip with thick arms emerged from Kai's chest and struck the air fiercely, making a thunderous sound.
Hiss!
The thick whip shook, and layers of sharp scales like blades appeared on the surface, cutting the surrounding air and making a hissing sound.
Swoosh——
The 20-meter-long grey whip was retracted back to the chest of the "Flesh Armor" and disappeared.
This is not a whip, it is simply the tail of Hamsuke, the Wise King of the Forest.
…

Introduction: An unexpected product that was enhanced using "Rune Technology" and "Degraded Flesh Armor".
…
The information about skills has undergone a completely new change.
Not only have the stats increased, but there are even two more skills, which are the abilities that the Wise King of the Forest, Hamsuke, originally possessed.
"Is it because of the level of 'Flesh Armor' that I can only choose two skills? It seems that I can also erase the skills."
“It was totally beyond my expectations.”
Tang Zheng looked at the Wise King of the Forest, who was left with only a pool of flesh and blood on the ground, and then looked at the information on the panel, his face full of shock.
