Chapter 157 - Departure, Heaven Dou City

After thoroughly enjoying the feeling of being overwhelmed by firepower with his left arm battle armor manifested using the Omniscient Library in the training ground, Oschin finally settled down to continue refining his battle armor design.

 Next, he needed to finalize the right arm and right hand armor. With the precise suppression system and firepower blockade system for ranged attacks already completed, Oschin planned to use his right arm battle armor to comprehensively enhance the Flame Armor Shield's functionality, thereby increasing the overall melee power of the battle armor set.

 Many of the Flame Armor Shield's skills required a sufficient amount of fire attribute energy to activate, so the first step in strengthening the Flame Armor Shield's skills was to enhance the speed at which it absorbed and converted fire attribute energy, arranging fire element energy absorption and purification arrays.

 Absorbing and converting energy after the battle had begun was too late; Oschin wanted the fire attribute energy within the Flame Armor Shield to always be in a state where it could be activated at any time. Therefore, he arranged an energy-gathering array that could draw soul power from the air to help the aforementioned absorption and purification arrays operate automatically.

 The Flame Armor Shield has a limited capacity to store fire-attribute energy. The constantly absorbing and converting fire-attribute energy will dissipate into the air once it can't be stored any longer – this won't do. Therefore, a fire-attribute energy storage array needs to be arranged.

 Considering that the rapid-fire soul-guided cannon on the shoulder armor also requires fire-attribute energy, a dedicated energy flow array circuit for the right arm battle armor, serving as the channel between the shoulder armor and the Flame Armor Shield, is also essential. This energy flow array circuit will start from the energy storage array, connecting the shoulder battle armor and the Flame Armor Shield respectively, providing both with ample fire-attribute energy at all times.

 Originally, Oschin was ready to stop after drawing these four arrays, but some images suddenly flashed through his mind, prompting him to pick up his pen again and draw new inscription arrays on his right arm battle armor.

 As a fake defensive-type soul master, Oschin often felt at a significant disadvantage in terms of strength when fighting against genuine battle soul masters. Although Oschin's defensive abilities, thanks to his Flame Armor Shield, made him a fairly reliable defensive Soul Master, the difficulty of the battle was undeniable. Therefore, Oschin decided to inscribe a power amplification array on his right arm armor, primarily used to enhance close-combat capabilities. With increased strength, Oschin could more easily maintain his shield and inflict greater damage when wielding his fire-attribute energy Tang sword.

 After confirming the feasibility of the plan with the Omniscient Library's AI, Oschin relaxed and leaned back in his chair.

 "The design for the upper body of the battle armor is finally almost complete. Now all that's missing is the right hand armor and wrist guard.

 However, I don't think I can do much with these two positions.

 The hand armor goes without saying; it must serve the perfect combination of the Flame Armor Shield and the battle armor. Inscribing other types of rune arrays might interfere with the combination of the Flame Armor Shield and the battle armor, so it's best not to do anything unnecessary.

 I can work on the wrist guard, though. I can add a level 5 trigger-type soul-guided defensive shield to it. You know, passive skills are more likely to save your life than active skills."

 With a definite plan in mind, drawing became much faster. Twenty minutes later, Oschin returned to the training ground. After the training equipment was activated, the complete upper body battle armor (including the belt that combined a level 5 healing bottle and a level 5 storage soul-guided device) appeared on Oschin's body.

 Long-range precision strikes, long-range firepower blockade, defensive counter-attack melee combat after being forced into close combat, finding opportunities to escape in melee combat, tracking and getting rid of enemies, and retreating after battle.

 A battle armor combat test was turned into a temporary live-fire simulation by Oschin, lasting a full forty minutes until he was completely exhausted of his soul power before finally stopping the test.

 "Having gotten used to piloting a mecha, piloting battle armor feels quite unique, but I really like it.

 No matter how powerful a mecha is, it's still just a tool; the pilot is still very vulnerable without it. Battle armor is different. Battle armor can integrate into the user's body, strengthening the user themselves.

 Wait, so, in that case, wearing battle armor while piloting a mecha is also possible, right? Tsk tsk, a nested doll, that's a good idea. If I have time, I can't completely abandon the mecha; I still need to upgrade what needs upgrading." "An upgrade, please.

 Hmm, no rush. My main focus right now is on cultivating my soul power. The full enhancement of the soul tool can wait until after the Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament. As long as I don't fall behind, that's fine.

 Hmm, I've been in the Omniscient Library for over four hours already? It's almost six o'clock. I need to hurry out for dinner. We can discuss the leg armor and boot designs after dinner."

 That evening, Oschin finalized the addition of a power system to the leg armor and boots, and the next day he began preparations for the battle armor's creation. On

 the thirty-sixth day of his vacation, Oscar, engrossed in blacksmithing, was the first to break through his soul power level, finally reaching level thirty-seven. That evening, Oscar boasted to Oschin in the dormitory.

 "Hahaha, you little brat, now we're on the same level. I wonder who said they'd catch up to Boss Dai before I did. Now that Boss Dai's soul power is about to break through, I wonder if that person's boast still holds true."

 Facing the smug Oscar, Oschin was seething with anger, but there was nothing he could do. After all, he was the one who made that boast, and now someone was using his own words to slap him in the face; he could only accept it.

 "Damn it, at most another week, I'll definitely break through to level 38."

 Although it wasn't outwardly apparent, Oschin was filled with urgency at not having broken through to level 38 yet.

 The existence of the Omniscient Library did give Oschin at least six extra hours every night, but the Soul Master training program also consumed a lot of his energy; the time he actually spent on soul power cultivation each night wasn't much longer than others.

 After nearly four months, the students of Shrek Academy have made considerable progress in their soul power cultivation.

 Excluding Xiao Wu, Rongrong, and Oscar, who have already broken through, Dai Mubai and Tang San are now on the verge of a breakthrough. Even more remarkably, Ma Hongjun and Zhu Zhuqing, who broke through once not long ago, are now once again on the verge of a breakthrough.
