As he spoke, Yuan Chen stood up, walked to the front of the vehicle, and looked at the neatly arranged weapons and armor inside.

Once the Scout Skill is cast, the attributes and quality immediately come into view.

Name: Fire Dragon Embers - Flying Blades x12

Quality: Epic

Specialization: Hard, tough, and sharp.

Equipment Skill: Dragonfire Embers:

The blade, made from the top-grade material "Sharp Teeth" derived from the Flame Drake, experiences a dramatic temperature increase when infused with magic, leaving behind a trail of intense flames in the air.

If the user has been Dragon Blood Enhancement, their attacks will be accompanied by Dragon Might's might, which has a certain probability of causing the enemy to feel fear and hesitation.

Note: The effect of Dragon Might Impact depends on the quality of the user's Dragon Blood Enhancement.

Note: Dragon Might Impact is more effective against low-intelligence creatures.

Seeing the effect of the Dragonfire Embers Flying Blade, Yuan Chen raised an eyebrow in surprise.

The reason for the surprise is not the so-called specialization. Because specialization is actually customization, which means that the weapon is specially enhanced during the forging stage according to the employer's requirements and the craftsman's skills. For example, some weapons are specially designed to be heavy, while others are specially designed to be light.

Previously, there was no specialization... well, mainly because the blacksmith's skills weren't very good.

Even the Flawless Heavy Blade used for Dragon Hunt is simply an increase in size and weight, not a difference in forging techniques.

What truly surprised Yuan Chen was the quality. He knew that while dragon materials were incredibly precious, this was only an Elemental Drake...

Even though the Elemental Drake that Yuan Chen and the others hunted was a young dragon evolving towards adulthood, it was still just a sub-dragon, and there was a huge gap in quality between it and a giant dragon.

Simply put, to forge Epic Quality equipment from Elemental Drake materials, you need at least a mature or ancient dragon.

Now, the quality of the Dragonfire Embers Blade is specified as Epic, which means that the materials must have been further enhanced and purified during the forging process using other materials.

"You've really gone to a lot of trouble." Yuan Chen looked at Qiyana beside him and said, "The purification of materials must have used up quite a bit, right?"

"It's alright," Qiyana said.

"These are all from the royal treasury. It would be a waste to use materials that can be used to purify dragon species materials for other purposes. Although they are sub-dragons, they can be refined to a quality level close to that of giant dragons."

"Well, this isn't enchanted yet. If you have any requests, I can have a court enchanter enchant it for you. But if you have other ideas, then forget it."

Hearing Qiyana's words, Yuan Chen nodded thoughtfully. After pondering for a moment, he said decisively, "Regarding enchanting... I can handle that myself. I'll go check on the other equipment first."

As he spoke, Yuan Chen cast a Scout Skill on the leather armor.

It's called leather armor, but it's actually a re-weaving of the dragon's fascia, muscles, and scales using Vidalion Loom.

As a sacred relic of Ixialia, the Vidalion Loom is not only used for trials or to create Vydalian Robe. With permission, it can also be used to re-weave materials.

Just like now, although it's called leather armor, it looks more like cloth armor. It's somewhat similar to the assassin's suit in Assassin's Creed, except it doesn't have a hood and instead has a dragon-wing-shaped cape.

Name: Heart of the Fire Dragon - Leather Armor

Quality: Epic

Specializations: Lightweight, Strong, Blade Resistance, Fire Resistance.

Skill: Fire Dragon Wings

Forged primarily from the fascia, wings, and scales of a fire dragon, and through specialized material purification and transformation, it can be infused with magic during battle to unleash a fire dragon's wing attack, causing fan-shaped fire damage in front of the user. It also grants significant fire resistance and high-temperature resistance.

Lingering Dragon Might: When infused with magic, it generates the Dragon Might. The intensity of this aura is constant, and if the wearer possesses "Dragon Blood Enhancement," they will receive additional enhancement. This aura has a bonus against low-intelligence creatures.

Having confirmed the effect, Yuan Chen couldn't wait to put on the leather armor. After a few simple stretches, Yuan Chen attempted to connect with the internal magical circuits.

Forging is a skilled craft. A good craftsman can enhance, modify, and enchant the magical pathways of the material itself through hammering without using any additional methods during the forging process, thus forming a complete equipment spell.

Once the connection with the spell is established, it means that the full power of the equipment can be unleashed. The so-called binding is that after the connection with the spell is established, the user locks it in place with their own magic power.

Just like fingerprints, everyone's magic is different. Therefore, once bound, no one else can use this armor, even if they obtain it, unless they are the one who bound it.

Forcibly breaking the binding could even cause the internal spell to self-destruct.

This is also a key reason why the Vydalian Robe can restore magic power dozens of times faster on the bound user—it is a robe woven using the user's own magic power, and thus naturally possesses a binding effect.

In the primordial world, it would be an acquired, innate magical artifact.

First came the Fire Dragon Heart Leather Armor, then the Fire Dragon Ember Flying Blades. Having completed the binding and feeling the power within, even Yuan Chen couldn't help but reveal a hint of joy in his eyes.

Having obtained his desired and handy weapon, Yuan Chen subconsciously manipulated the flying blades. Under the vigilant gaze of the palace guards, twelve Fire Dragon Ember Flying Blades left crimson trails of light in the air.

According to Yuan Chen's perception, even when not fully unleashed, the Fire Dragon Ember Flying Blades could easily pierce through steel using its temperature and sharpness. And if unleashed at full power...

They did not attempt it rashly, because the Yuan Chen could guarantee that no temperature would dissipate under Normal State conditions.

If all the magic power were poured into it, the blade's temperature would radiate uncontrollably in all directions. The temperature of over a thousand degrees would be enough to start a huge fire here.

Thinking this, Yuan Chen simply manipulated the flying blade, leaving behind condensed and blazing trails of light in the air. After a moment, Yuan Chen retracted the blade.

With Yuan Chen's will, twelve sharp blades flew and fell into the scabbard that had been prepared during the forging of Yuan Chen's leather armor.

Just as Yuan Chen had sheathed his blade and before he could say anything, he saw Qiyana throw a dark green object at him.

I instinctively caught it and looked into my palm. It was a Silk Material pocket, not very big, about the size of a coin purse.

"This is..."

"Aren't you a master appraiser?" Qiyana looked at Yuan Chen with great interest. Yuan Chen didn't waste any words and immediately released his Scout Skill again.

Name: Storage pocket.

Quality: Epic.

Skill: Storage Space: A special piece of equipment created by reweaving precious spatial materials using the Vidalion Loom. It contains an independent spiritual space and can hold up to ten cubic meters of matter.

Note: This facility cannot accommodate living beings, except for spirits.

Upon seeing the effect of the pocket, Yuan Chen's expression showed some surprise.

Despite the fact that storage spaces are practically ubiquitous in cultivation novels, almost everyone has one, items with storage effects are extremely rare in Runeterra. Besides requiring materials to possess spatial properties, a skilled craftsman is also needed to forge and weave them.

Like this one in front of us... it could easily buy a small country if it were anywhere else.

"What are you doing...?"

"Here you go, consider it my reward for your actions these past few days!" Qiyana held her head high, her face full of pride, as if to say: Look how awesome I am!

Feeling the heavy weight of the light silk bag in his hand, and seeing the blank expression on Qiyana's face, Yuan Chen, after a brief silence, simply tied it around his waist after binding it.

"This will be of great help to me, so I won't refuse... Thank you."

"Ha, good to know, so you have to obey my orders too!" Hearing Yuan Chen's thanks, Qiyana smiled, but quickly composed herself, looking at Yuan Chen earnestly and saying:

"At least once! How about it?"

"... good."

Yuan Chen had a vague idea of what Qiyana's order was.

But for some unknown reason, Qiyana ultimately did not choose to give her command, but instead changed the subject after a long silence:

"What's the situation with Lupe's family and that village now?"

Seeing that Qiyana didn't immediately demand that he carry out her orders, Yuan Chen breathed a sigh of relief and then said:

"It's almost all settled in."

With King Yuen's special instructions and Ixialia's mastery of Elemental Magic, the people from the village have successfully settled in Yishuaoken.

Not just becoming an ordinary city dweller, but going a step further to become a powerful figure in the capital. After receiving Yuan Chen's affirmative reply, Qiyana nodded and said:

"Then get ready... just like you told me before."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Chen nodded.

After a month of development, the debate among Ixialia scholars has reached a clear stalemate. And the more stalemate there is, the more a breakthrough and turning point are needed.

Otherwise, if the stalemate continues, this ideological revolution will soon become nothing more than idle gossip and fade away.

However, before that, it's necessary to have a comprehensive understanding of the overall process of critical thinking...

The next day.

"What a bunch of idiots! They can't even see the situation clearly before they start attacking Milio. Don't they even know who's backing Milio now?"

Looking at the records of debates about founding the nation and continuing traditions over the past month, Yuan Chen's face was filled with disdain.

"No wonder the nobles of Ixialia those of Yuentar. Even in their isolation from the outside world, Yuentar continues to engage in self-reflection and internal reform. These nobles... they must have developed brain problems from inbreeding."

For example, the Japanese imperial family, which the island nation loved to boast about in its past life, was of an unbroken imperial lineage, with not a single member being deformed.

Yes, there are indeed no deformities. But in the 21st century, with its advanced medicine, the infant mortality rate is still the same as in the Middle Ages. The internal changes are too obvious.

It now appears that the nobles of Ixialia are in a similar situation.

Even without the self-reflection of the Yuentar, they had already clearly picked up the bad habits of the traditional nobles of the Valoran Continent —conservatism, pedantry, and rejection of new things.

"None of these useless fellows will be spared." A cold glint flashed in Qiyana's eyes as she observed the nobles' recent remarks.

How dare you say you were misled by Yuan Chen? Are you kidding me? Do you want to be sent into society to continue shining brightly?

But compared to this insignificant shouting...

Qiyana then slammed the key she had prepared—the one that would break the deadlock—onto the table.

It was a piece of parchment.

On that parchment lay detailed information about Piltover's destructive mining activities on the Ixialia border.
