Chapter 242 Abes's Full Body Armor



Chapter 242 Abes's Full Body Armor

Anivia's appearance, Crimson's provocative eyes, and Abes wearing full body armor are all eye-catching elements.

Looking around, the three of them walked silently towards the depths of the market.

This design is of course intentional.

If he just wanted to conceal his identity, Abbas could have chosen some more ordinary attire, such as a headscarf, hood, mask or other Arab-style clothing.

However, after seeing the unconcealable characteristics and temperaments of the two companions he had chosen, Abes decided to do the opposite.

Another way to hide Abeth Grande's identity, besides simply covering her face, is to create another eye-catching identity.

Anyway, his two companions are unstoppable, so it’s better to be as dazzling as possible.

"Little Robert's" first reaction was to prepare to open the kingdom's treasury and present some gorgeous equipment to Abes.

But Abes refused.

"Don't do such things as borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha. Not to mention that you are a raccoon, even if you are the real prince, the king's treasury is now the common property of the entire capital and the small kingdom. It is unnecessary to use the treasure for some of my personal plans."

"Since we have considered the possibility that someone knows my true face, we must also consider the possibility that someone has seen the king's treasure. We cannot allow anyone to associate me with Abes Grande, and naturally we cannot associate me with the capital."

"I have to be a target and a flag, but not a suicide truck."

"Besides, doesn't it just make others feel that it's expensive? I don't think the king has a lot of suitable things, right?"

The suitable thing that Abes was talking about was the full body armor that had been equipped for the city guards.

Of course, the city guards were wearing medium armor.

Since we are preparing for Lord Abes's trip, we need to prepare heavy armor.

Moreover, some image design should be done to make it look more like a customized high-end product rather than a cheap mass-produced product.

So, in the end, Abes was dressed like this, with full armor and a full helmet, leaving only a small gap for inspection.

Even the half-sword in his hand, such a handy weapon, was equipped with a shell on the outside, turning it into a giant sword.

In the royal capital where the magic steelmaking blast furnace and magic stamping process assembly line are highly developed, it is not difficult to create such a full-coverage armor for Abes.

However, in most parts of the North that have not yet been enlightened and insist on hand-made craftsmanship, such a set of armor represents wealth, as well as power and dignity at the same level as wealth.

The so-called steel can is just a joking name used by civilians in daily chat.

When a figure like this comes in front of you, even if it's just an ordinary person, you will subconsciously bow slightly and call him "Sir Knight".

What's more, the huge shape of the heavy sword further illustrates the opponent's level, a transcendent.

An extraordinary being wearing heavy armor and carrying a huge sword.

That’s definitely the case, and it’s a very strong one!

And this is the effect that Abes wants.

"As we shift our focus toward the great cause of unification, the forces over there will more or less gradually notice me and Abes Grande's active presence in events related to the fight for the capital."

"But what does all this have to do with a fully armored warrior like me holding a heavy sword?"

A thousand years ago, Abes was an Officier Knight. Now, the image of Abes is a barbarian who does not wear medium or heavy armor.

Neither of them has the possibility of being related to heavy armored warriors.

If there is a flaw in this design, it is the difficulty in putting on and taking off.

Because the so-called full body armor is not as simple as a piece of clothing.

It actually consists of a fabric shirt worn under the armor, and several layers of heavy cloth armor.

If you want all-round protection, it is best to wear a layer of interlocking metal rings - that is, the chain mail shirt inside the medium armor. This kind of protection can only be regarded as a part of the whole set of heavy armor.

On the outside, there are sheet-cast metal plates that are linked together.

Of course, the same procedure applies to the lower body.

After that, the exposed hands and feet had to wear thick gauntlets covered with iron sheets and heavy leather boots covered with iron sheets.

If an ordinary person wants to put it on by himself, bending over and using both hands to tighten all the ropes and buckles is enough to make people sweat.

When wearing it on your legs, if you insist on standing up to wear it, be careful that the weight may cause you to lose balance and fall.

After finally gathering a few layers of thin clothes and cloth armor inside, the difficulty of going outside begins.

You have been made thicker and bigger by the clothes, and now you look like a muscular man. The constraints at the shoulders mean that even if you twist your body to the limit, you can only barely touch the buckles on the back with your fingers.

One person buckles them all?

dream.

If your physical condition is not good, the weight of the armor will be enough to make your breathing become rapid, your heartbeat quicken, and sweat pour out.

Maybe if I don't untie you immediately and lay you flat in a ventilated and cool place, you will die of dehydration and heatstroke.

Are you taking it off before you’ve even finished putting it on?

But that’s just the beginning, the sheet-cast metal panels of the outermost links are where the real trouble comes in.

Knights wearing heavy armor of the same type need to have their followers rivet these things one by one, or even nail them directly, before going to the battlefield.

After the fight, when it's safe, we return to the camp to rest and have someone take a tool and crack it open like a can.

In comparison, the final helmet is much simpler.

There is a horizontal eye opening and a breathing hole to prevent suffocation and water vapor retention.

With the addition of leather lining, the overall wearing feel is similar to that of a motorcycle helmet.

Generally speaking, although Abes' physique has become that of a supernatural being rather than an ordinary person after receiving the blessing of the Tao, it is certainly impossible for him to faint from heatstroke while wearing it.

However, such a cumbersome process still greatly limits Abbes's performance.

In order to cope with extreme situations, Abes still wants a quick-on and -off function.

And this requires the help of magic.

The key connection parts are fixed with rotating rivets and connected with runes with rotation and impact functions.

Once activated, the entire armor will explode.

When Kronos designed this function, Abes' eyes widened.

Who can resist a piece of armor that can be cast off?

The same principle is used on Abes's half-sword, which allows the outer heavy sword-shaped shell to be launched like a hidden weapon.

Let the heavy sword shell detach from its hilt, and shoot the lethal heavy sword blade at least thirty feet away within the field of vision.

Moreover, the weapon in the hand will also reveal its true form at this time, revealing the appearance of a magic weapon and half sword in the hand.

This ensures that, as long as Abes wants, he can change from his current bloated state to a state with medium armor and half-sword in hand at any time, allowing the barbarian profession to exert its maximum power.

After solving the problem of putting on and taking off, the biggest problem Abbes now faces is himself.

Please, it's really not easy to resist pressing the [Cast Off! ] switch all the way.

After gradually leaving the area around the royal capital and heading to Carterburg, Abes knew that his arrangement had been a good bet.

Because he saw a sign at the entrance of Carter Castle saying that adventurers could rest and recuperate here for free.

And immediately, Abesi realized that this was a good place to show off his identity.

If I were to ride on an iron bird and directly drop in there by air, my identity would naturally be full of suspicious points.

But if you make friends with people as you go, then once you go deep into the northwest or southwest region, this identity will be guaranteed by countless people.

So, he also made up his mind.

Not only do I have to stay and rest here, I also have to do something big here!
