Capítulo 1350: Chapter 285: Mysterious Armaments (Part 2)

McCarthy nodded, then switched to a serious expression and said:

“Today’s events have somewhat exceeded our expectations. The Beast Race’s power seems overwhelmingly strong. Just on the first day, two Holy ranks appeared, and I’m afraid they might have hidden powers…”

“Two Holy ranks?”

Yohad was surprised to hear this news. After carefully inquiring about the subsequent events, he finally understood the whole story.

He was already in a dazed state from severe injuries at the time, only knowing that McCarthy came to support him afterwards and must have fought someone, but he didn’t know the person was a Ninth Rank strongman.

“Let’s do this, this place isn’t suitable for conversation right now. Let’s go back to the Holy Temple and discuss in detail.”

Regina nodded in agreement and then strode with everyone out of the Bright Church.

Only Acatus showed a reluctant expression, grumbling while walking behind.

“Another meeting, why does this damned organization have so many events…”

…

Moments later, inside the largest building located in Kuhan City, a temporarily converted Holy Temple hall, the five Ninth Rank Unshacklers all sat around the broad conference table.

On the way, McCarthy once again confirmed Yohad’s injuries, the results were still somewhat disappointing.

Although Yohad’s physical injuries were mostly healed, due to the recent battle and activating the Heavenly God Descent mode, he couldn’t unleash the pinnacle power for a short time.

“By the way, how is that knight kid? He didn’t die, right?”

Yohad suddenly asked, making everyone a bit stunned.

Ultimately, McCarthy was the first to react, knowing he was referring to the deputy army commander of Kuhan City, Dustin Watts, the Eighth Rank Great Knight.

“Watts is fine, although seriously injured, thanks to your timely appearance saving him, now he’s out of life-threatening danger, receiving continuous treatment from the Priests.”

“Good, then I’m relieved. If someone I save dies, my old face would have nowhere to put.”

The Dwarf spoke while downing the cup of wine in front of him.

“But that damned Beastman was indeed beyond my expectation, his armor was particularly powerful, even my Storm Battle Axe was easily shattered…”

“These Beastman brats, since when did they get such powerful equipment? Had it not been for that insidious bastard wearing a Divine Artifact, I would have twisted his head off today!”

Yohad grumbled about the recent events, his eyes full of indignation.

After the clash with Ogatlon, he actually discovered some peculiar things later on.

As a Ninth Rank Combat Master, Yohad might seem careless, but anyone reaching this level isn’t without brains.

He had already realized that, although the Beastman’s power was decent, compared to his Ninth Rank, it was far inferior.

The reason they reached mutual destruction was entirely due to the power of that golden armor.

“That must be a set of Divine Artifact level armor, undoubtedly more refined than my Storm Battle Axe…”

Yohad described the situation then in detail and mentioned his speculations.

His description revealed that golden armor held an incredible power, even allowing an Eighth Rank person to match his Ninth Rank strength.

The most shocking part was the armor’s ability to manifest weapons, the golden war blade directly severed his Storm Battle Axe.

“Such powerful armor? So how did you deal with him later?”

Regina asked.

Yohad thought for a moment and said:

“His armor isn’t without weaknesses. Although it significantly boosts his power, I could sense that with my attacks, the armor’s amplification was weakening…”

“Even after he manifested the weapon, his body’s defensive power decreased significantly. However, I didn’t think much, maybe it was a hallucination…”

“Manifest weapons, huh…”

Zhang Xiaoman suddenly murmured, appearing thoughtful.

McCarthy noticed his expression and curiously asked:

“Ji Xing, did you discover something?”

Zhang Xiaoman didn’t answer immediately, instead, he focused his Divine Thought into the storage ring, concentrating on the two rings stored inside.

Based on Yohad’s description, he suddenly recalled that upon arriving on this planet, he met someone claiming to be a Dark Knight.

“Could there be some connection between these two?”

He wasn’t overthinking; their methods of power amplification were too similar.

Both were armors condensed from a ring, both had the ability to manifest weapons.

If one says these two have no connection, he wouldn’t believe it under any circumstances.

Since suspicions have arisen, Zhang Xiaoman decided to take out the two rings from the storage space.

He planned to show them to the assembled Holy Ones, hoping to gather collective wisdom, possibly uncovering useful clues.

After all, these items weren’t necessary secrets for him; besides, the ring’s energy level was low, unnecessary.

“This is…”

Upon seeing Zhang Xiaoman take out one black and one white ring from his clothes, everyone’s expression instantly became grim.

They weren’t foolish; upon seeing the rings, they immediately associated them with Yohad’s earlier descriptions.

Wasn’t it precisely the ring that the Beastman used to summon that golden armor?

“Ji Xing, are your two rings also…”

McCarthy asked.

Zhang Xiaoman nodded, without directly answering, he placed the black ring on his finger and stood in the open space within the hall.

The next moment, as Dark Energy surged within him, the ring immediately emitted a jet-black energy sphere encasing him.

Soon, as when Gaelian used the Dark Knight transformation, an imposing black armor enveloped him.

Thick dark aura swirled around him, making it particularly eerie and fearsome.

“Yes! It’s it! I recognize this feeling! Absolutely unmistakable! The Beastman at that time did exactly this! The golden armor appeared just like this! Exactly the same!”

Dwarf King Yohad immediately shouted, pointing at Zhang Xiaoman’s black armor, extremely agitated.

McCarthy was also stunned.

He could perceive the armor radiating an exceptionally pure energy aura, so pure that even he, a Ninth Rank Peak Holy One, couldn’t reach it.

“This thing… Ji Xing… where did you acquire it…?”

Zhang Xiaoman waved away the black armor, finding that the Dark Knight transformation seemed to be continuously depleting his Life Force, making him uncomfortable.

“Should be a thief, a self-proclaimed clan leader of the Dark Clan thief.”

He briefly recounted the events of that day and pointed to the white ring on the table.

“The Paladin Family, you’ve all heard of it, right? It was stolen. They call it the Light Ring, but it seems to have lost its power…”

Everyone’s gaze quickly fixated on the white ring.

Actually, there was one thing Zhang Xiaoman didn’t mention. Although the Dark Ring’s energy level was somewhat low, that depends on the person.

If he used it, the power demonstrated was slightly stronger than that of the thief, which he suspected was due to his use of Dark Spiritual Power.
