Douluo 2: Transmigrated as an Evil Soul Master, Enemies of the World

Chapter 71 Battle Armor Successfully Forged

"Hahahaha, hahahaha... It's a success! It's finally a success!"

Four hours later, the old beggar threw the forging hammer on the ground, lay sprawled out on his back, and burst into laughter.

His face was slightly pale, a result of exhaustion and lack of strength.

His face, and even his whole body, were covered in sweat.

Forging requires extreme concentration of mental energy to create higher-grade metals.

With the assistance of Ye Chen's shared mental detection, he was able to observe and sense some changes inside the metal more clearly during the forging process.

Then, adjust the forging intensity and rhythm in a timely manner according to the changes.

Finally, with Ye Chen's cooperation and the old beggar's tireless efforts, the first part of the complete battle armor, the arm armor, was completed.

Ye Chen picked it up and placed it on his arm; the size was just right.

It is as thin as a cicada's wing, but extremely hard.

The quality looks very good.

However, it took the two of them four hours to complete this component, consuming a large amount of soul power and physical strength.

However, it was a successful first step, and Ye Chen saw hope, which made him genuinely happy.

Next, he just needs to follow the previous pace and forge step by step, and he will soon be able to have a set of battle armor.

"Let me see!"

The old beggar stood up, came to Ye Chen, took his hand, looked at the armor on his arm, and punched it with his fist:
"Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt!"

"You don't feel pain, but this old man is in a lot of pain! Ouch, my hand..."

The old beggar clutched his fist. He hadn't used his soul power to strike him; it was just a pure punch. Yet, it felt like hitting a wall of iron and copper. It really hurt.

Then, he picked up a dagger and made a light cut, but it didn't leave a single mark.

With a clang, it struck, but the armor remained unmarked.

The old beggar's eyes widened:
"Great, great! Let's get these built quickly. You and I, one set each. Then we can go out together to pick up girls, and if we get beaten up, they'll be the ones who suffer, hahaha..."

The old beggar burst into laughter, overjoyed, and was about to pick up the forging hammer to continue forging.

"No, no, no, old man, sharpening your axe won't delay your woodcutting. Hurry up and have a drink and a nap, or you'll be exhausted before you've even forged a set of battle armor!"

Ye Chen quickly stopped the old man. He had only been forging for four hours, and his lips were already pale. He still wanted to continue.

You're getting too excited.

More haste less speed.

"Moreover, this is your first successful forging. You need to digest this experience and strive to shorten forging time and improve quality in the future!"

Ye Chen said again that he also needed to think carefully about how to improve his compatibility with the battle armor.

To improve compatibility, it's best to forge it yourself. With some thought, he might even get involved in the forging process himself.

"Haha, okay then, I'll do as you say!"

The old beggar laughed heartily, took a large gulp of wine, and then fell asleep.

In the blink of an eye, three months passed.

For the past three months, Ye Chen has spent most of his time in the forging room provided by the Soul Guidance Department.

Aside from casually crafting soul tools to offset the cost of rare metals, he spent most of his time forging the metals needed for battle armor with the old beggar.

The soul tool he casually made did not use the core soul tool technology that the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy could not pass on to outsiders.

However, every soul tool produced was of extremely high quality. When Fan Yu, Qian Duoduo, and the others received them, they looked at them as if they were treasures and began to study them.

At least for now, Huo Yuhao is unable to create the soul tools that Ye Chen gave him.

Even radish is difficult to make.

Even if He Caitou could occasionally make one or two, it wouldn't reach Ye Chen's level. As long as Ye Chen provided the soul tool, Fan Yu and the others wouldn't care what Ye Chen did.

Over the past three months, Ye Chen has learned forging from the old beggar. His mental strength is strong, and he learns things very quickly.

With their joint efforts, they finally created two sets of battle armor, and all the parts were quite good.

"Kid, it's finally finished. How do we use it?"

The old beggar was overjoyed, wearing his full set of battle armor, a happy smile appearing on his face.

"I feel like I could take on a Soul Douluo if I put on this battle armor!"

The old beggar was a Soul Saint of level 72. At this moment, he was wearing battle armor and felt his whole body was full of power.

He looked very confident, and he even wanted to find a Contra player to challenge him to a duel.

"Gan Hun Sheng is perfectly fine, but we can't be too high-profile right now. We can't expose our battle armor and we need to hide for the time being."

During regular cultivation, use your mental and spiritual power to nurture and absorb it into your body. When you need to use it, it will appear as soon as you have a thought.

At that time, let alone a Soul Douluo, we'll dare to challenge them, even a Title Douluo!

Ye Chen said this without exaggeration.

According to the memories of the original novel, the metal used to forge these battle armors by the old beggar should have reached the level of a thousand forgings.

This is already quite remarkable; it's the result of repeated practice and refinement over the past three months that has led to this level.

It's equivalent to a single-word battle armor, but it can't be absorbed into the body yet.

Only when it reaches the level of a two-word battle armor can it be absorbed into the body.

But we might as well give it a try now. Once the old beggar and his forging skills improve a bit more, they can upgrade the battle armor.

Then, by combining spiritual power and soul power to nurture it, it might be possible to successfully upgrade the two-word battle armor and successfully absorb it into the body.

With the two-word battle armor, his combat power will reach a new level.

If a one-word battle armor master is already at the fifth ring level, wearing battle armor will make them equivalent to a seventh ring level master.

A two-word Battle Armor Master is equivalent to an eight-ring master, a three-word Battle Armor Master is equivalent to a nine-ring master, and a four-word Battle Armor Master is equivalent to a Limit Douluo.

He didn't aspire to a three-word battle armor; he would be satisfied as long as he could achieve a two-word battle armor.

We will upgrade it later when we have the capability.

Now, he has also learned a lot about forging, and with his strong mental strength, he will surely be able to quickly improve his forging skills.

In the future, it will be possible to forge three-word battle armor, or even four-word battle armor.

"Good, you're just my type, kid."

I'd better put it away quickly, otherwise if those old guys like Qian Duoduo and Fan Yu see it, it'll be confiscated and I'll be finished!

As he spoke, the old beggar quickly took off his full set of battle armor and put it into his soul guide storage ring.

Ye Chen also quickly put the battle armor into his soul guide storage ring.

He instructed the old beggar to remember to improve his forging skills and to nurture the battle armor with his soul power and spiritual power before leaving.

While Ye Chen and the old beggar were forging their battle armor, Huo Yuhao and He Caitou, after passing the extreme tests arranged by the Soul Guidance Department, began to implement the Extreme Individual Soldier Plan.

Under the guidance of their teachers from the Soul Guidance Department, the two participated in various special training programs.

Battle armor is a cutting-edge technology. With it, Ye Chen walks with a confident stride, exuding even more self-assurance.

However, the equipment in Shrek Academy's Soul Guidance Department was too weak; he even missed the equipment of the Sun Moon Emperor-level Soul Guidance Academy.

If he were at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, he would definitely be able to forge even higher quality battle armor.

For a long time afterward, Ye Chen continued to practice forging and create soul tools in the Soul Guidance Department.

Both their forging skills and their ability to create soul tools are improving rapidly.
