104 Battle Armour's Powers

While Sheng Lingtian was shocked about the power of Sheng Feilong's Battle Armour, She Meixiao and Song Weihan looked at each other in surprise. They knew that a full set of Battle Armour could enhance the fighting strength of a Soul Master by about 10 ranks, but Sheng Feilong's aura had already surpassed the level of mid ranked Soul Emperors.

Considering that he didn't even use his Spirit Essences yet, that could only mean the the Battle Armour itself was superbly strong. And with the top masters of Daedalus working on the design and material, She Meixiao was certain that Sheng Feilong's compatibility with the armour was top notch, making him able to tell full advantage of the Battle Armour.

Song Weihan looked Sheng Feilong up and down. In the whole set of Battle Armour, he couldn't find the slightest flaw. Even with Sheng Feilong's prowess, he shouldn't be able to achieve something of this quality in a short one and a half months.

Internally shaking his head, Song Weihan ignored the thought and just looked at Sheng Feilong and asked another question. "Feilong, how well does this armour work in conjunction with your Spirit Essences?"

Sheng Feilong thought about it for a moment and activated his Radiant Emperor's Phantasmagoric Eyes. On the unassuming black visor, two glowing golden lights emerge with a red pattern above them. The aura surrounding Sheng Feilong changed as the Battle Armour continued to projecting his Spirit Power outside and creating an oppressive field around him.

Song Weihan stared at this change with excitement. "Impressive! The increase in Spirit Power is so powerful that you can't fully control the Spirit Power and its overflowing?" Sheng Feilong shook his head. "That's not quite it. It feels more like the Battle Armour is reacting to my Spirit Power and creating this 'field' by itself."

"So it's a form of direct amplification. That really is a powerful type of effect. Combine that with your naturally strong Spirit Power and illusions and you'll be a force to be reckoned with, even for some of the weaker Soul Saints." Song Weihan said with a smile.

She Meixiao looked at Sheng Feilong and added with a hint of excitement. "What about your other Spirit Essence? How is it influenced by your Battle Armour?" Sheng Feilong deactivated his Radiant Emperor's Phantasmagoric Eyes and instead began to transform into the Netherworld Putrefaction Demon.

His body began enlarging and, surprisingly, the Battle Armour just grew with him, still tightly encasing his body the same was as before. The only real change was the head part. It still remained elongated compared to a normal head, but the Netherworld Putrefaction Demon's horns grew out from both sides and the armour made space from them, tightly closing off at the base of the horns.

However, the Battle Armour didn't cover absolutely all of his body; The greenish tips of his claw like hands were uncovered. Like that, Sheng Feilong would be able to use the powers of the Netherworld Putrefaction Demon perfectly.

Sheng Feilong moved a bit around to see if the Battle Armour was perfectly connected to his body, which it was, and then tried to use his first Soul Skill, Putrefying Devil Claw. The greyish, muddy green vapour rose from his hand and covered his whole forearm, Battle Armour included. He moved his hands a bit more and saw that the vapour didn't attack the material from the Battle Armour.

She Meixiao and Song Weihan nodded in satisfaction seeing this, but Sheng Feilong was shocked. When he tried the resilience of the Nether Star Aldismium before, he made sure that the vapour of his Putrefying Devil Claw didn't destroy it, but he didn't try to do so right now; He didn't try to control the vapour, so it should normally attack the Battle Armour instantly!

Sheng Feilong looked at his Masters in confusion. "Master She, shouldn't the vapour attack the Battle Armour..? I'm currently not even trying to control it and leaving it free reign, but it doesn't seem to do anything. I'm certain that the Nether Star Aldismium itself cannot withstand the Putrefying Devil Claw's corrosive energy."

"That's pretty normal. Do you know the greatest difference between One Word and Two Word Battle Armour?" She Meixiao smiled light with her gaze still focused on the Putrefying Devil Claw. "Normally, you wouldn't use Spirit Alloys to create One Word Battle armour, which means that the armour can't fuse with a Soul Master's body like yours does. However, your's is different; It has already fused with your body."

Sheng Feilong seemed to understand instantly. "So it's already part of my body? And the Putrefying Devil Claw isn't trying to attack it because it recognizes that the Battle Armour is part of me. Or at least it doesn't try to destroy 'me'." With a nod, She Meixiao agreed to his thinking. "There probably isn't a way for the Netherworld Putrefaction Demon's power to realize that the Battle Armour isn't 'you'."

"Anyways, can you tell us what exactly your Battle Armour enhances when it comes to the Netherworld Putrefaction Demon? Honestly, I can't feel anything different from normal." Song Weihan asked while scanning Sheng Feilong with his Spirit Power and frowning lightly.

"There isn't really much difference." Sheng Feilong said. Lifting his hand, he had the greyish, muddy green vapour slowly disappear. "Unlike with my Radiant Emperor's Phantasmagoric Eyes, there isn't a direct effect like the reaction to my Spirit Power. It's just the physical enhancement that goes with donning the Battle Armour itself."

"So there's no other effect? I understand that the Battle Armour wouldn't increase the corrosiveness of your powers, but it should at least be able to somehow strengthen your abilities." She Meixiao asked in wonder, but to her dismay, Sheng Feilong shook his head. "There really isn't any great increase to my abilities. But compared to when I use my other Spirit Essence, it feels like the Battle Armour is increasing my physical strength and defence even more now."

Song Weihan and She Meixiao accepted it as such and the latter even asked Sheng Feilong to attack her with just his physical strength to see just how much more power he had. Song Weihan frowned light, and closed off the room with his Soul Power to make sure nothing gets destroyed and the people outside don't get alarmed.

She Meixiao prepared herself for a moment and beckoned or Sheng Feilong to attack her. She caught his punch in her hand, but a surprised expression painted her face. "Your physical strength is close to peak rank Power Attack Type Soul Saints with the help of your Battle Armour. The strength increase really is extreme."

They tried out a few more things before calling it a day and allowing Sheng Feilong to go to sleep. The next morning, Sheng Feilong visited She Meixiao's office after the latter left him a message on his Soul Communicator. "Feilong, come, sit down."

She looked at Sheng Feilong with a smile, handing him a few documents. "These are the details for the mission the two of us will take on in two days time. I promised you to take you along if you can become a sixth ranked Mecha Maker and complete your Battle Armour, after all."

Sheng Feilong looked through the documents briefly. It was mainly a request for She Meixiao to check on a few branch headquarters of Daedalus and see how they were doing, as well as looking for new recruits on the way.

Sheng Feilong seemed a bit disappointed for a moment, which didn't escape She Meixiao's eyes. She smiled at him and pointed at the top section of the document in Sheng Feilong's hand. "You should take a look at where we're supposed to find these branches."

"Checking on the status of branches... Recruitment on the way... Eh? Travelling to the Star Dou Continent's two main branches and checking up on them as well?!" Sheng Feilong instantly shot up and looked at She Meixiao excitedly. "We're going to visit another continent?!"

She Meixiao smiled, showing that she expected this reaction. "Yes, we are. Mainly to check up on them but with the recuitment in mind, as well. There will be a political travelling party heading for the Star Dou Continent in two days time, which we will join to travel overseas."

She Meixiao explained the situation a bit more clearly to Sheng Feilong, causing the latter to become more and more agitated. By the end of the explanation, he could barely remain seated and stormed off to God knows where without even saying his good bye's to She Meixiao. "I'm going to prepare right now!"
