Two days later, Angor brought the completed equipment to Leon.
When Lyon saw the set of knight armor in front of him, he couldn't take his eyes off it.
"Is this really for me?" Leon still had a look of disbelief on his face.
"Yes." Angor continued, "It's called Beginner's Set. I believe you're familiar with the style. It's your favorite when you were a kid …"
"Gothic armor," Leon finished.
Looking at the humanoid armor with a strange style, Leon's eyes were filled with joy and nostalgia at the same time.
The gothic armor was something that Jon had drawn to make him happy when he was young.
According to Jon, it was an ancient armor style from a country in his hometown. It was a long time ago, but it was still popular because of its unique appearance.
When Leon saw it, he liked it very much. He even wanted Blacksmith Tim to tailor a set of armor for him. However, Blacksmith Tim was dazzled when he saw the complicated design of the armor. There were so many parts, and they had to fit together. It was not something he could do.
When Leon grew up, he realized that there was no similar armor in Goldspink Empire. None of the nearby countries had it.
Gothic armor was complicated, but it was not impossible to ask a good armor maker to make one for him. However, Leon was already preparing to inherit his title. He still wore armor, but most of the time, he was wearing soft armor that allowed him to move around easily. Therefore, until now, Lyon had never really owned a set of gothic armor.
However, the regret of his childhood had always haunted Leon's mind.
Now, Angor made up for it.
The armor in front of him was silver-black in color. It looked complicated with many parts, but when placed in front of Leon's eyes, it did not feel complicated at all. Instead, it had a simple and functional beauty. The multiple edges and beautiful streamlines, as well as the pattern of a lion's heart on the armor, made the color of the armor stable but not dull.
It could be said that this was the most eye-catching knight armor that Leon had ever seen.
It was beautiful and unforgettable.
Angor was still talking about the different types of armor, but Leon did not listen at all. He was fully focused on the armor.
Leon picked up the helmet and fiddled with it. He didn't find anything fishy about it, so he looked at other parts of the helmet. Because there were many parts of the armor, Lyon did not know where to take them. He was afraid that if he took them, the entire armor would collapse.
"How many parts are there in total?" Leon counted carefully, but he still couldn't figure it out.
"There are only three parts of the armor," Angor replied.
Leon frowned. "Huh? Jon's sketch of the gothic armor is still in the drawer in my room. I remember that there are more than ten parts of the armor in the disassembled diagram, and there are still some parts that are hidden inside the armor that were not drawn … "
Angor sighed. He already told Leon about the components of the armor, but Leon didn't pay attention.
Since he couldn't show it to Leon with words, he simply asked Leon to put it on.
It was reasonable to say that the first step to wearing a knight's armor was to put on the inner armor to protect the parts that the armor could not cover, followed by the iron boots and other parts of the body.
However, since it was an armor designed by Angor, it would not follow such a complicated and time-consuming process.
"There are only three parts: the helmet, the body armor, and the iron boots. You can put on any one of them first."
Leon hesitated and put on the seemingly simple helmet first. As soon as the helmet was placed on his head, he felt a cool sensation from head to toe.
Under the stimulation of the cool sensation, Leon did not feel stuffy. Instead, his concentration improved a lot.
At the same time, Leon also noticed that the helmet looked simple, but when he put it on, a neck plate appeared out of nowhere and covered his entire face, leaving only his eyes exposed.
"The helmet is engraved with calming runes, which can help you get rid of some distracting thoughts and better focus in battle." Angor gave a simple explanation. "You can try the body armor now."
Leon already felt the magic of the armor, so he quickly picked up the so-called "body armor".
When Leon touched the body armor with his hand, almost 90% of the body armor disappeared, leaving only a piece of armor engraved with the flame of a lion's heart in his hand.
Leon hesitated for a moment, then placed the armor on his chest. In an instant, countless parts of the armor extended from the armor like water, like twining branches and vines, automatically covering Leon's body.
Apart from the armor, the new parts also included a back plate, a chainmail skirt, shoulder plate, arm plate, armpit plate, glove, wrist plate, and elbow plate.
Leon clenched his hands and felt no resistance at all. The armor fit perfectly on his skin and did not feel heavy at all. The air circulation was normal as if the armor could breathe on its own. At the same time, the weight of the armor was even lighter than the soft armor, which gave him a pleasant feeling.
At this point, Leon finally understood why the armor only had three parts. It was because it could be extended automatically!
Without hesitation, Leon put on the iron boots. As expected, the leg plate, knee plate, calf plate, and a small wing-shaped spur appeared on the back of the boots.
The feeling of lightness instantly filled Leon's body.
Leon hopped around in the narrow room several times to make sure that the armor did not hinder his movements. Instead, it made him feel lighter.
Leon opened the door to the balcony and jumped down from the third floor. He then began practicing on the wide lawn.
In the end, due to the cool feeling inside the armor, Leon did not sweat profusely. However, he still felt refreshed.
Angor came over and told Leon about the armor's function.
The armor was designed to protect the wearer from fatal attacks from level-2 apprentices. This was the most important part of the armor. Apart from the overall defense, certain parts of the armor also had certain functions.
For example, a helmet that could help the wearer focus, a neck plate that allowed the wearer to breathe underwater, and … a pair of iron boots that allowed the wearer to fly for a short period of time.
"Fly?" Leon looked down and saw a small wing-shaped spur on the back of the iron boots.
"Yes. It allows you to hover in the air for a short period of time, and a gentle landing similar to Feather Fall," Angor explained.
As a matter of fact, the armor was not one of the best alchemy items he could find. He could easily draw more advanced runes or even magic arrays.
However, he named it "Beginner's Armor" not only because of the influence of Beginner City, but also because it was meant to be used by "Beginners".
Leon was only a low-level apprentice at the moment. If he drew more advanced runes, not only would Leon attract jealousy, but he would also become dependent on the armor. Therefore, Angor only drew support runes to improve Leon's survivability while also allowing the wearer to unleash his full potential.
Leon listened to Angor's explanation with great excitement. As a knight enthusiast, the armor fit the image of a knight perfectly. Not to mention, it also had great functions.
More importantly, it was so convenient to wear! It was even more convenient than wearing a soft armor!
"You sure this is for me?" Leon asked again. Angor could hear the excitement and satisfaction in his voice.
Angor nodded.
There was no need to explain Leon's gratitude.
"As for the weapon, I gave it to you before, so I did not make it." Angor already gave Leon a Tang Saber when he returned to Padt Manor, so he did not make another one this time.
"As for the cloak, I saved a buckle for you. You can put it on yourself."
Leon loved the armor so much that he did not want to take it off again. He would always show it off whenever he saw someone. Luckily, most of the people in the manor were his subjects, so no one dared to criticize him. Well, that was not right.
There were still people who did that.
For example, Nano, who used to be Prince Fibber, was now a Silk Spinner.
"The design is not bad, but the color is too plain." Nano was currently visiting the Krakoks. He did not hesitate to criticize Leon's armor. "It'll look better with yellow stripes and a red background. Of course, the helmet must be green to show off its elegance. "
Leon ignored Nano's comment.
Angor accompanied Leon around the manor and watched as Leon announced that he was going to inspect Grue Town because the weather was fine today.
Seeing this, Angor found an excuse and left without hesitation. Although it was said to be an inspection, it was actually just another place to continue showing off … Leon should enjoy this kind of thing by himself.
As for whether Leon would join the Rising Star Competition, Angor did not ask. Although he guessed that Lyon would agree, he didn't want Lyon to do it. But he would respect Leon's decision even if he did not.
Angor did not go to the dream wasteland because he was busy crafting the armor. Now that he was done, he planned to visit Foundation City.
"Mister Phantom came here just two days ago," Freud quickly explained.
Two days ago was when he started crafting the armor.
"Did he say anything?"
"Nothing. He just asked if Mister Sunders was back yet. Also, Mister Phantom said that he's almost done with his business and will return to Padt Manor soon, "Freud said.
"When?"
Freud: "He said it would be in two days. According to the time, they should be arriving today, right? "
Will he be back today? Angor was surprised.
He did not stay in the dream wasteland any longer. Instead, he returned to reality.
He planned to meditate and see if Sunders would come back today.
However, before he could sit down, he sensed a strong spatial ripple coming from outside.
Angor went to the balcony and looked up. He saw a dark fissure appearing in the clear sky. As the fissure expanded, a figure walked out from it.
Under the backlight, the person's back was illuminated by a circle of light.
He couldn't see the man's face clearly, but the illusion ripples coming from his body told him who it was.
It was Sunders!
