Chapter 930: Money Rolling in! (1/2)
”Until next time!”
Clank! Clank! Clank!
Metallic footsteps could be heard as a tiger, literally armored to the teeth, walked away with the remainder of his ore mountain.
No fur could be seen on the tiger anymore as everything was hidden behind an imposing set of armor.
Beside Gravis was a two-by-two-by-two-meter cube of metal.
This tiger had been a rich customer!
”That's so much!” Stella said with surprise as she arrived beside Gravis, looking at the metal.
Gravis nodded. ”Yep.”
”Just with one customer, you already earned over 500 million Immortal Stones!” Stella exclaimed with wonder.
This ability to make money was simply too terrifying!
”Not really,” Gravis said. ”After all, I won't sell this cube of metal.”
”You won't?” Stella asked with surprise. ”Why?”
”Protection and advertisement,” Gravis answered.
Stella became confused.
Gravis gestured to the cube. ”I will use up all of this for equipment for all four of us,” Gravis said.
”What? So much!?” Stella shouted in shock.
Gravis nodded. ”Of course. After all, I want you all to be as powerful as possible in the case that something unforeseen happens. Additionally, when you wear your equipment while talking to customers, they will be even more impressed. A first impression is important, after all.”
Stella couldn't really argue against that, but she still felt like this was too much to accept.
That was so much money!
However, Gravis ignored her protests as he directly started to forge equipment for Stella.
After a lot of back and forth, Stella accepted her new armor, which looked far too imposing for her taste. She liked modest appearances more.
'Well, Gravis is already my man, so I might as well follow his example for a bit,' Stella thought.
The armor looked cold, bloodthirsty, and imposing, but in her eyes, it only shone with the calm light of Gravis' love.
This was something that Gravis had created for her.
Stella put the armor on, and it fit her perfectly. Her movement also wasn't impaired. Even more, she had seen how Gravis had used some of his scales to create an inner armor and some gasses to create a layer between the outer and inner armor.
If an attack wasn't powerful enough, the gasses would simply remain inside the armor, but if an incredibly powerful attack hit the armor, the explosion of the gasses would reduce the damage of the attack significantly.
Of course, the armor wouldn't be able to resist another attack with such power since the layer of gasses would have already escaped, but that was already more than enough.
In short, this set of armor would boost the passive defense of a fighter by a lot and even had a one-time use of blocking a very powerful attack.
This armor was a literal lifesaver!
Even more, with all of Gravis' Core Battle Laws, the passive defense of the armor was almost as powerful as armor that had been created with the level five Law of Hard Complex Materials.
On top of that, Gravis gave her five full sets!
Gravis also created several weapons for Stella.
Stella was now also armored to the teeth, just like the tiger.
As Gravis looked at Stella, he couldn't contain his smirk.
The kind Stella was nowhere to be seen.
Now, Gravis could only see a bloodthirsty war goddess.
This was his war goddess!
While Stella continued to look at her equipment with wonder, Gravis forged equipment for Siral.
Siral almost couldn't believe it!
He was just a servant to his master, but his master even gave him this costly set of equipment!?
”10,000 more years, Siral,” Gravis said. ”In 10,000 years, I will remove the effects of the Life Ring. Until then, you will help me with the Gravitas. However, I'm also not opposed if you decide to work for me after the effect of the Life Ring has worn off.”
”This servant is unworthy, Master!” Siral said as he fell to his knees.
Gravis only smirked.
”Could you bring Liam over here, dear?” Gravis said to Stella.
Stella was taken out of her reverie, and she felt warmth flowing through her heart.
Gravis was even willing to give Liam such a valuable present!
”Yes!” Stella said with excitement and cute happiness in her voice.
While Stella was getting Liam, Gravis was quickly creating his own armor and weapons.
Finally, he had enough metal to create several sets of armor and weapons for himself!
Stella returned after a few minutes with a stunned Liam.
When Liam had seen Stella, he almost couldn't recognize her.
Stella had left looking like herself but had returned a couple of minutes later, looking like a war goddess!
