Chapter 738 - Cursed Armor Of Misfortune
-----
Amongst the weapons and armor Drake consumed, there was one armor he had used a couple of times when he fought very tough enemies, such as Rose back then in the Ice Moon Sect, this was an armor he bought for a rather cheap price on Rakasha's shop, an armor that was cursed! However, because Drake was mostly immune to all status effects, including this armor's curse, it had just good defensive powers and even granted him some sort of dark aura he could manipulate, but he mostly uses dark magic if he ever wants to use anything "dark" so this armor was left forgotten, even his natural scales are stronger than it!
But nonetheless, this armor was already Level 10 as a Skill, as he had overused it on slime clones until it reached max level, he was disappointed the skill didn't awakened or something, but it was still a powerful armor… This was the [Accursed Dark Armor of Misfortune: Level 10]! This armor was infamous because it caused misfortune to the wearer and those around him, making it the party killer, everyone that wore this armor ended dying or going through almost death experiences with their party members inside dungeons, or any other place.
It was an armor that didn't drained life out of the user, but all their fortune… and the more fortune it drained from the user and those around him, the stronger, more resilient, and dark it became…! The slime had been given all these forgotten Level 10 equipment and weapon skills by Drake, as the real Drake was very busy right now, so the slime had to go with what he had! In fact, the slime was cursing his own true body for being so lazy to not give him something better, but it seems that he didn't knew that this was related to his capacity, this little slime was the lowest grade Drake could create, so he had limits on to how many skills and mana he could hold.
"Damn main body, give me something better than a cursed armor! Agh, I guess this is the only one that could be worn by other people, the other armors are skills that cover the user's body, and Hector is not the user of the skills so they won't work…" Thought the slime. "Well, anyways… [Accursed Dark Armor of Misfortune]!!!"
FLAAASH!
Hector suddenly felt as if his entire body was being covered by metallic plates, and in a second, his entire body was clad in black and dark blue armor, he looked intimidating and mighty, and the armor even had sharp designs, large horns on the shoulders, and demon-like spiraling horns in the helmet, which had the shape of a skull to boot!
The entire armor looked cursed, and deathly! Not the same as before but even worse, it completely converted the young and cheerful-looking Hector into a death knight from the depths of Helheim ready to rip some souls! Hector looked into his own appearance, as he looked completely terrifying, and his entire body was emanating a dark and phantasmal presence.
"T-This is incredible…" Said Hector in surprise. The darkness emanating from the armor seemed to welcome him, embracing him with its obscurity, it danced around like a phantom of shadows…
"You can feel it? shape this darkness and make a provisional spear! Gah! The lizardman is coming!" Said the slime, as the lizardman grabbed his hammer while holding the spear with the other hand and rushed towards Hector to crush him like an ant, although it was surprised by the armor, it didn't cared, and was willing to crush him anyways even if he looked a bit more intimidating.
"Shape this aura…!?" Asked Hector, as he suddenly began to shape the darkness into a long Dark Spear, holding it with his right hand! He looked at the lizardman and the two clashed against one another! Hector unleashed a series of attacks using the Dark Spear, piercing dark attacks that were blocked by the lizardman's enormous hammer, while the lizardman used the light spear it stole from hector to hurt him with the light, now that he was wearing a dark armor, it was affecting his mobility and resistance!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
"D-Damn it, this bastard is using my own spear against me!" Said Hector, evading the piercing blows from the light spear that unleashed rays of light, jumping over the lizardman's arm and then hitting the face with countless piercing blows using the Dark Spear!
"GRAKKAH…!"
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLAAASH!
"GRUOOH…!"
BOOM!
The lizardman was astonished by Hector's new speed, strength, and defense, the armor granted all of this and more to him despite being rather heavy! He moved forward, attacking the giant lizardman several times, as the two clashed against one another with explosions of light and darkness!
Hector suddenly shaped the darkness into many more Dark Spears, and he fired them all towards the giant lizardman, hitting it all over his body! The explosions ensued right away, and the lizardman lost its balance, hitting the ground!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The lizardman was tripping an awful lot of times by now, it quickly realized something was making him very unfortunate, and this was clearly not just carelessness… The armor that hector wore was indeed capable of draining the fortune of anyone around. The lizardman was left astonished by this fact, and tried to attack Hector with the spear, managing to hit him while Hector was showering him with Dark Spears!
CLAAAASH!
"Unngh…!" Hector's chest was barely protected by the armor, but the spear's light began to burn his entire body! The armor only made him weaker to light this time. Additionally, Hector's mana was zero by now, and his own stamina was reaching zero as well, he was already desperately trying to kill this thing, but the bastard was stubbornly keeping ahold into his life, fighting to the very last!
CLAAASH!
A powerful tail strike hit Hector strongly, crushing him into the ground!
BOOOM!
