The Tale of the Void Emperor

Chapter 324: Skymare Tingale

After everyone picked their scrolls in the library, Mr.Devon led them to another hall.

Unlike the previous halls, There was a room in this hall.

" It\'s time for the second reward. A 2-star customize armor and a weapon. Besides the champion, Athan, Who gets armor and a weapon both, You all can only get one of them. So, while Athan decided on what type of armor and weapon he wants in this room, You can think about what to choose between a 2-star customize armor or a weapon. "

After saying this, Devon told Athan to enter the room where he can decide on what kind of weapon and armor he wants.

Athan nodded as he started walking towards the door leading to the room.

After entering, He saw a man with no hair but with an explosive body filled with big muscles underneath the tight clothes he wore.

He was mostly human except for a big and thick tail behind him. It looks like a lizard\'s tail but bigger, thicker, and longer.

He was standing behind a wide table. The table had several things placed on it that looked like strange pieces of rocks.

Seeing Athan, The man grinned and introduced himself, " Hello, Athan. You can call me Old Timmer. Now let\'s get to the business without wasting time. "

Saying this, He pointed at the stones on the table, " These six stones are small pieces of the 2-star materials. You can pick one of them as the base for your armor. But you might not know what specialty these stones have, so I\'ll tell you about them first. "

Old Timmer then picked up the first stone before saying, " This stone with brown and green pattern is called Mudrawad material. It is effective against penetrative attacks, and the material\'s mystical properties heal your injuries passively. Of course, this healing effect is not as powerful as eating a pill, but it can stop internal bleeding. But the armor made from this material is weaker against vibration, shockwave, and other types of attacks. "

After he finished speaking, He put the stone of Mudrawad material down and picked up another rock.

" This stone is from the material called Mozeria Stalamil. " Old Timmer paused here and threw the rock at the nearby wall.

The stone was not round in shape but like a normal unnatural shape of the usual stone. But after this stone hit the wall, It actually bounced back.

" The armor made from this material is not heavy at all, and it can also defend against many kinds of attacks except penetrative attacks. It is extremely weak against penetrative attacks, so you have to be careful about that. "

He then put this stone down and picked up another one.

" The material of this stone..."

.

.

After hearing the introduction of all six materials, Athan picked up the first one.

Mudrawad material. He picked this because it would pair up well with his natural healing factor, and he could endure other kinds of attacks like vibration and shockwaves better than penetrative attacks.

A powerful penetrative attack at one of his joints or vital part can render him incapacitated. Even though he might not feel the pain that comes with it, the penetrative attacks can render him immobile and reduce his movement.

So choosing this Mudrawad material for his armor is a better choice because even though its defense against other types of attacks is bad, It\'s more effective against penetrative attacks than other stones presented on the table.

After Athan chose the base material for his armor, Old Timmer asked him about the armor\'s design.

Athan thought for a moment and remembered his dragon-scaled armor, \' Since this Mudrawad material is brown and green. It should look good in the dragon-scaled armor type design. \'

After deciding it, Athan drew the armor\'s design by controlling some chaos essence and turning it into lightning dust chaos essence to make it vivid.

Old Timmer nodded after seeing the design, " Good. But there is a problem. The armor you drew is full body armor, but the reward is only chest armor. Even if you forgo your reward of customizing the weapon, It won\'t make up to get you this full-body armor. "

Hearing that, Athan fell into thought, \' What I need is protection on my body so that I can focus on offensive and fight to my heart\'s content without worrying about getting disabled injuries during fights. So...\'

After thinking for a few moments, He made the decision.

" How much surplus do I have to pay to get this full-body armor? "

Old Timmer was startled as he didn\'t expect this, but since there was no problem with this arrangement, He said, " Three thousand low-grade chaos stones. "

Athan readily gave him three thousand chaos stones because he at least had that much. Even if he didn\'t have, He could just tell them to minus the amount from his fifty thousand chaos stones reward, which he had yet to receive.

Old Timmer received the chaos stones and said with a smile, " Alright! The full body armor will be delivered to you once it is completely crafted. You can return back now. "

Athan nodded and left the room so that the next competitor can go there.

Seeing Athan coming out, Mr.Devon told Sen to go into the room before saying to Athan, " Since you are done here. Then go and choose what kind of peak 3-star chaos beast you want. "

After saying this, He waved his right hand towards the east wall of the hall, which caused a door to appear.

.

.

After walking through the door, Athan appeared in another hall. This hall was a lot smaller than the previous halls, and A woman was standing in the middle, right beside a blue-colored portal.

She was a pure human and looked mature. She had long brownish-maroon hair and wore a light orange-colored dress with white designs.

Seeing Athan coming through the door, She told him to enter the portal where a person would be waiting.

" The collection of chaos beasts are at that place. Good luck on choosing a chaos beast. "

Athan thanked her with a seemingly no expression on his face before entering the portal.

But after arriving at this place, He was slightly stunned.

The sun\'s rays shone down as the atmosphere was filled with many kinds of different noises released from beasts.

There were large trees and big wooden cages in this place. It looked like he arrived on an island as he could smell the sea.

" Athan Void...."

Athan turned around as the voice came from behind him and saw a lady with black hair, two black wings, and a beautiful face with green eyes that had vertical iris.

She apparently recognized Athan from his hair and skin as she was left speechless after watching his fights.

Athan looked at her eyes which snapped her out of the daze as she smiled politely and said, " Seeing you reminded me of your performance in the competition, and I became a bit dazed. Anyway, You can call me Kornella and without further ado, let\'s take a tour around this island filled with peak 3-star one hundred and three chaos beasts. This island is wholly reserved for the champion of the competition as only the rank one victor is rewarded with a peak 3-star chaos beast. "

She then led Athan to various wooden blocks where the chaos beasts were chained.

Athan looked at the beasts one by one, and after thirty minutes, he finally encountered a beast that sparked a slight interest in him. He saw many weird chaos beasts while touring around, but this one seemed the strangest of them.

" This..."

Before Athan could speak, Kornella introduced this strange beast to him.

" This is a Skymare Tingale. This one was brought here from the famous spot of this region, Myriad Wind rifts. It\'s not that offensive, but this beast is probably the fastest one among the peak 3-star chaos beasts present here. "

Athan nodded with a faint smile as he had already decided to take this beast.

Kornella smiled and nodded, " Alright. It\'s a good choice. "

Saying this, She took out a token from out of thin air, which most likely came from the storage ring worn on her index finger.

" You can command this beast with this token after infusing a bit of your soul sense and form the normal pact after putting a drop of your blood on it. Though, once you have grown familiar and close to the beast, you can form a soul pact with it. This token is also a beast space as you can just command the beast to return to the token\'s beast space to let it take some rest. "

Athan took the token presented to him by Kornella and put some drops of his blood on it and then infused his soul sense into it to command the beast to come to him.

This was chained with a different type of material than other beasts because its body was practically a mass of cloud with only two big clear cyan crystal eyes on its ever-changing cloudly body.

After Athan formed the normal pact to it by dropping some blood on the token, the chains were removed as the beast slowly neared Athan.

Its size was three meters long, and its body was a floating cloud with two big crystal eyes in the front.

*shrii....shirii....*

A wind rustling sound was produced from it as it looked at Athan with its crystal clear eyes.
