Chapter 736 - Lizardman General
-----
The weapons and armor that Drake created were enhanced by the System. This was because he drew the power to create them from the System's Skills. The uniqueness of his weapons could not compare to weapons made in here, although those of very high quality made by Dwarves, or those of high rarity found in larger and more dangerous dungeons could sometimes have special powers as well, even his low-ranked items could have special skills to boost the battle capacity of a fighter.
This was because unlike the other weapons and armor of this world, the ones he created had a Status, with their own Stats and Skills! And they even came with bonuses to the Stats of the wielders and wearers. Of course, this world's people had no status, but Drake's power of the System helped him see an "Estimated" status of a person, and it showed numbers, he was able to boost those numbers despite people not being able to share his System, and he was able to directly enhance their physical strength, magical power, agility, and more by simply letting them wear equipment.
It was as if he was creating game-like items! In this world the people crafted equipment or found items that could have special resistance to certain elements, or some weapons had an elemental effect to them, sometimes the very strong ones could unleash elemental powers by infusing mana into them, and were incredibly durable as well, accessories could enhance elemental power and even mana regeneration, but those were often the most expensive ones to even make.
Meanwhile, Drake's equipment granted bonuses to the person itself, like a character in a game when they wear armor, they directly receive an enhancement to their HP and Defense, or when they wield a weapon or pants, or a chest clothe, they gain agility, attack, and more, directly poured into the character's stats, items made in this world could offer help and could sometimes mean a big difference, but the power of Drake's items were in a completely new level of cheating! Even Miminga who had yet to develop herself into a powerful magician received an amazing boost to her magic power by wearing a lot of accessories enchanted by Drake, which he mostly mass produced using slime clones to boot! And if he armed an entire army with them, wouldn't they be incredibly mighty?
"A-Amazing!"
"Miminga-sama!"
"Our Lady did it!"
"She's really going to become the next chief!"
"Uwah, I am so sad I could not marry her!"
"Shut up!"
The Lizardman of the Pastoralist Tribe celebrated as Miminga blasted a big chunk of the enemy's army, if not almost half of it with her Meteor Shower, leaving the land around completely burnt and with several big craters! The people of the village also saw the catastrophe that Miminga brought to the world, and were left speechless, however, the Pastoralists were still far away, and could not interact with the humans yet, but had already left a massive impression on them…
"GRAAAH!"
A bulky, four-meter-big Berserk Lizardman wearing black armor and holding a large mace attacked Hector who was in the frontlines. After he saw the mysterious armored person conjuring such a massive rain of meteors at the distance, he couldn't help but have stood still startled for a few couple of seconds, however, he was quickly brought back to reality as this giant lizardman savage attacked!
"Evade, Hector!" Drake's Slime, who had named himself "Blue" for now, roared at Hector, as Hector quickly reacted in time, rolling to the left side, and evading a deadly hammer that hit the ground and made everything tremble!
TRUUUUMMM…!
"GRAKAKAHH!" Roared the Hammer-wielding giant lizardman savage, as he roared and rushed towards Hector, without letting him roll away!
"S-Shit!" Hector groaned, pointing his spear at the lizardman, and unleashing a series of consecutive attacks! The light of the powerful spear flashed brightly, illuminating the entire battlefield with bright light!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLAAAAASH!
However, the lizardman defended himself by using his giant tower shield, which suddenly began to absorb Hector's hits! Drake's slime was left surprised, that one shield was stranger and more powerful than the others that were shattered so easily.
"Wait, that shield is…!" Muttered the slime in surprise, extending a tentacle and grabbing the giant Muspelheim shield, putting it in front of Hector.
FLAAAASH!
The demonic shield of the giant lizardman suddenly unleashed all the absorbed damage into a massive hit, knocking Hector with an enormous beam of demonic red and dark energies!
BOOOOMMM!!!
"Nnggh…! W-What the…?! This lizardman is not a normal one…!" Muttered Hector in surprise, as his shield was barely able to resist the impact, but his entire body still had to bear with the power and strength of the attack because he had to resist it and stand his ground.
"GRUKHA…" The giant lizardman looked at Hector with a seriously angered expression, he had not expected him to survive this deadly attack and was quite furious about it. The giant lizardman rushed forward towards the weakened Hector, who forced himself to stand up however he could, grasping his spear and then infusing mana into it, and using it as a wand!
"Bright Flash!"
FLAAAAASH!
"GRYYAKH!"
The Lizardman was shocked by seeing such a bright light out of nowhere, startled, it moved back several steps, as Hector quickly used this opportunity to run around it! He saw from the distance that his friends and the people of the village were all busy dealing with the invaders, so he had to take down this giant "General" by himself!
"Hector, I'll help you!" Said the slime, as he suddenly extended his slimy tentacles and helped Hector at crawling around the walls of the village so he could jump into the head of the Lizardman General!
"Thank you, slime!" Said Hector, as he jumped towards the lizardman like a spider, reaching his back and then crawling up to the head, the armor didn't covered the lizardman entirely, but it already had a natural armor in the powerful scales below it!
