After opening the chest, Huai Shi saw a neatly folded grey coat inside.
He took it out and lifted it up. Looking at the way it was unfolded, it looked like the trench coats that often appeared in movies. The hem of the coat could reach above the knees.
However, upon closer inspection, it was impossible to tell whether the material was cloth, leather, or chemical fiber. However, the reflection of the color made it seem a bit like plastic.
It looked like a thick raincoat, and it even had a hood. There was also a socket on the inside that could be used to fasten the gas mask on the inside of the chest.
There was also a socket on the left sleeve. From the looks of it, it seemed like it could be connected to his original enchanted glove … … he had even thought of something like this?
When he held it in his hand, Huai Shi discovered that the fine material on the surface of the coat seemed to be woven out of metal threads that were so thin that it was hard to see them with the naked eye.
A piece of metal?
However, its weight was unexpectedly light. It was even lighter than normal clothing, and it didn't seem to have any substance at all.
With Huai Shi's shallow knowledge of metal, he couldn't figure out how such a light yet tough metal had been forged. Apart from its own unique properties, it was actually able to provide extremely high resistance to the spread of Origin Substances. In other words, it didn't just have a physical defense; it also had a high resistance to Origin Substances.
The internal structure was even more complicated than he had expected. He tried to analyze it and discovered that there were many layers of even more complicated Origin Substance underneath the outer shell made of light alloy.
The Origin Substances that had undergone a qualitative change had turned into small and thin buckles that were riveted to each other. It was practically a work of art, and there were no gaps at all.
The innermost layer of the coat was a breathable leather lining. Apart from the additional ceramic armor that could be replaced in the critical areas, there were also many pockets and buckles.
As long as Huai Shi prepared a Cavendish and Dixu quick-reaction vest, it could be connected to the ammunition belt.
Huai Shi used eighty percent of his strength to slash with the sacrificial knife, but he could only leave a shallow scratch on the surface.
After seeing Huai Shi's attempt, the goose-shaped creature explained with a smile, "According to the message left behind by the Kavendish workshop, this armor is tailor-made for you. It uses the latest Elementium buffer technology. The Elementium buffer layer on the inside is able to withstand the damage of most conventional firearms, and it will automatically recover after injecting the Elementium. However, the metal outer layer does not have such an effect, so you will have to do it yourself.
This is what they asked me to give to you. During the warranty period of the armor, you have partial rights to use it, but you can't transfer it out, sell it, or teach it to others. "
The metal sheet that was handed over was filled with dense runes and strange characters. Huai Shi glanced at it and immediately put it away. She was pleasantly surprised — this was a metal formula. It was most likely the formula for refining the outer layer of the armor.
The Kavendish workshop was really generous this time. They had even considered Huai Shi's maintenance method. It could be said that high-end custom-made armor was truly extraordinary.
After trying it on, Huai Shi moved around a bit and discovered that there were no obstructions when he moved. Moreover, it perfectly fit his usage habits. Even the tool knife's buckle on the inside of the cuff had been prepared.
"This was specially designed for you after watching the video of your performance in the rookie competition," the goose-shaped creature said.
The goose-shaped creature said, "Your fighting style is not suitable for heavy armor. Kavan and Dixu tried their best to preserve the necessary protective properties before reducing the weight to the extreme. In the end, they adopted such a plan that can best suit your varied fighting style.
Moreover, there are runestone slots reserved for you to upgrade in the future. I believe that until you reach the fourth step, it will be of great help to you. If you are willing to keep it after the fourth step, the Kavendish workshop will only charge you the most basic service fee and provide you with the latest upgrades and modifications. "
After seeing that Huai Shi had finished inspecting the goods and was satisfied with the prize, the goose-shaped creature continued.
"Finally, in addition to the trophy, the advanced gift pack, and the Kavendish workshop's custom-made service, this is a prize specially prepared by the Tomorrow News for the 'third place'. It is the only one in the world."
Under Huai Shi's expectant gaze, the goose-shaped creature slowly opened the box. Like the Russian Federation's Matryoshka doll, it unlocked the layers of passwords. Finally, it took out a box from the inside and placed it in front of Huai Shi.
The iron box was opened.
Between the red velvet was a silver card. On it was the scene of the moment when Huai Shi became a prince.
Its title was also written below.
[Prince of Paradise · Huai Shi (Sublimator)]
In the lower half of the black box, there was a card introduction written densely in the black box.
Mountain Ghost: When there is a forest field in the game, Huai Shi's HP will be doubled according to the number of forests, and every attack will recover HP equivalent to the number of forests in the field card.
Prince: All female characters on the enemy's side will have their attack and defense reduced by one. All female characters on the enemy's side will have their attack and defense increased by one.
"What is this?"
Huai Shi was stunned.
"… As you can see, this is a card." The goose-shaped creature did not expect Huai Shi to be so ignorant. It could only ponder for a moment before explaining again, "This is the 'All Ages Card' operated by the Tomorrow News' gaming company 'Super World'. Haven't you played it before?"
"…" Huai Shi shook his head blankly.
So the goose-shaped creature's expression became more and more startled. After a long time, it sighed in amazement, "You are really … focused. I thought you came specifically for this. After all, you said that … "
"What exactly did I say?"
Huai Shi became more and more puzzled.
He felt that he was going to be persecuted again.
Since the 40s of the last century, Super World released the 'All Ages Card' created with the Sublimator as the main character. This card game had almost swept the entire realm, border, and hell. Even many abyssal creatures liked to play a few games when they had nothing to do.
In addition to the rules that were easy to learn but difficult to master and various constant updates, the 'All Ages Card' was most famous for the variety of cards that were constantly released following current events. Some characters would enter the basic pack and circulate in various borders and hell, while some characters would be limited release as commemorative cards after certain events.
Thanks to excellent copyright control and technical protection, there were almost no counterfeits of this kind of card integrated with the source substance. Many cards were widely sought after by enthusiasts because of their rarity.
Four years ago, a dazzling limited edition 'Announcer – Yegor' that was accidentally wrong was sold at the Magic Gold Bank's auction for 1.6 billion, creating a miracle in the history of the All Ages Card.
And because of a freak combination of factors, due to the extremely conservative and harsh card making conditions of the editorial department of Super World, it was unknown when it started. Whether one could enter the All Ages Card, what kind of frame and what kind of card face could be obtained, had become the benchmark for many people to measure the achievements of a Sublimator.
And the same Sublimator might have more than one card face because of their achievements in different fields.
For example, the Natural Enemy – Tyr, in addition to the Diamond card 'Natural Enemy – Tyr' that represented the rank of the Natural Enemy, there was also the 'Creator – Tyr' that represented his identity as the Creator, the limited edition dazzling card 'Savior – Tyr' that represented that he had once destroyed a surviving evil with his own strength, and the dark gold card 'Defender – Tyr' that represented that he had participated in the abyss war between the Roman pedigree and the Russian Federation pedigree as a mercenary …
What kind of card back the Sublimator got, what kind of frame they had, and what kind of title they were given, were all evaluated and issued by the editorial department of Super World, which was backed by the Tomorrow News. Then, the full amount was transferred to the Sublimator themselves as the card face.
Until now, what kind of card face they had, what kind of frame they were given, and what kind of evaluation they had, had become a kind of evaluation of the Sublimator themselves.
Other than the Diamond card back of the Natural Enemy and the Source Tin card back of the Crowned One, the usual specifications of the card face were only gold, silver, copper, and iron, which were used to distinguish the rank of the character on the card and the impact it caused.
If one wanted to use their own rank to get a card face, then there was an unwritten rule: one must be at least rank 4. In other words, no matter what, Sublimators below rank 4 didn't have the qualifications to use their own strength to get such an honor.
And only Sublimators with a correction value or a distortion of more than 0.5% had the qualifications to have a Gold card back. To be more specific, there was the difference between Gold, Dark Gold, and Iridescent Gold, which was the difference in achievement.
In addition, there were commemorative cards that were sold every year according to current events and news. For example, Huai Shi's commemorative card represented his third place in the Asian Rising Talent Competition and his flawless performance. There were only a thousand of these commemorative cards in the world.
[Prince of Paradise – Huai Shi].
It was said that the moment it was released, it was sold out by the fanatical female audience. And four hours later, the price of the antique on the Collection of Ten Thousand Sins had soared to ten times the original price.
In comparison, the sales of [Great Arctic Fox] and [Demon Dragon Princess] were simply a failure.
This was the difference in popularity! — A certain unknown collector, Lady Hel, said so. And some male players who had eaten lemons said that the card shouldn't be called Prince of Paradise, but Cowherd of Paradise.
And as a reward specially given to Huai Shi, there was only one card in the world. This card was upgraded to Silver rank, and if Huai Shi was willing to sell it, it would definitely sell for a high price.
After hearing all the popular science and explanation from the goose-shaped creature, Huai Shi no longer had any expectations for the fantasy of this world.
The goose-shaped creature happily held up the box in its hand and said in a cheerful tone, as if all of humanity had been saved.
"Congratulations, Mr. Huai Shi!"
"You have entered the card pool of the All Ages and fulfilled your dream!"
"Huh?"
Huai Shi stared blankly at the card in front of him. Is this even possible?
