Chapter 478: One cannot possess both inferiority complex and soul armor at the same time
One fifth of a Kun year later.

Under the strong leadership of the Spirit Pagoda Council, the Soul Armor Science Research Department has made a major breakthrough in the project “Research and Application of Key Technologies for Soul Battle Armor Equipment”.

Under the full guidance of the Young Pagoda Master Qiangu Huangyu, the project successfully mastered more than a hundred key technologies through the innovative “playing badly + scientific research” working mechanism. The three-word soul armor developed by the project increased the combat effectiveness of soul masters by 40%, injecting strong momentum into the development of soul masters.

That’s right, in order to demonstrate the importance of soul armor, Qiangu Dieting specially convened the Soul Pagoda Council and established a special department for soul armor research.

Like the Soul Research Department, External Exchange Department, and Security Department, it officially became one of the major departments directly under the Soul Tower Council.

As a result, the status of the research group members also rose.

Qiangu Huangyu did not disappoint them and finally successfully developed the three-word soul armor technology, which could be put into mass production after undergoing experiments.

And a press conference for the Soul Armor was successfully held three days ago. During the press conference, Qiangudieting was extremely nervous, fearing that some evil soul master would jump out and cause trouble.

However, Qiangudieting was obviously worrying over nothing. The leader of the Holy Spirit Church was speaking on the stage, so how could an evil soul master come and cause trouble without being noticed?

What’s more, except for the Demon Emperor and the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, the few Extreme Douluos of the Holy Spirit Church now know that the Holy Spirit Church Leader Mortis and the Spirit Pagoda’s Young Master Qiangu Huangyu are the same person, so naturally they are not worried about not having soul armor.

As for the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and the Demon Emperor, they don’t even have souls, so naturally they can’t use soul armor.

At the press conference, Qiangu Huangyu also took the opportunity to directly start the auction, with the main items being souls with soul armor and customized soul armor services.

It should be noted that, because soul armor is worn by souls, a soul master usually needs to order multiple sets of soul armor.

Taking Qiangu Phoenix Feather as an example, Thundering Hell Vine, Mountain Dragon Taikun, and Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord each need a set of soul armor.

Moreover, the customized soul armor service does not require full payment, it is just a priority quota.

Under the premise of consuming the same amount of rare metals, forging soul armor is basically more than twice as expensive as battle armor.

It’s basically a game for the truly rich.

Qiangu Huangyu also understood after research that for most soul masters, it is not until they become Titled Douluo that they become three-word battle armor masters, but only after they reach the Titled Douluo level do they have the money to start forging their own three-word battle armor.

The emergence of soul armor will undoubtedly further widen the gap between these people and those who come from big families and big forces.

Qiangu Huangyu was helpless about this, but there was really no good solution now. With so many people in the entire department waiting to share the credit, she certainly couldn’t force the price of soul armor down at this time.

Then she would definitely suffer backlash from the entire Spirit Pagoda.

After learning about this situation, Qiangu Huangyu directly used the slogan “People cannot have inferiority complex and soul armor at the same time” as his slogan.

This completely confirms the status of soul armor as a luxury item.

It is worth mentioning that in order to ensure the timely supply of soul armor, the Soul Pagoda has been recruiting blacksmiths of all levels throughout the Federation.

Generally speaking, although each major force and family has its own blacksmith, most blacksmiths belong to the Blacksmith Association.

Once they began recruiting blacksmiths on a large scale, they would inevitably be envied and suspected by other families and forces.

However, the Soul Pagoda used Oily Head, who was responsible for making soul armor, to openly recruit blacksmiths.

The recruited blacksmiths are naturally more concerned about asking for soul armor as a reward for themselves and their successors rather than salary.

The Spiritual Pagoda naturally used its power to bully customers. After a combination of shady contracts, coercion and inducement, the blacksmiths would not be able to repay the Spiritual Pagoda unless they died of exhaustion on the forging table. …

“Tianjuan is really generous. He spent a huge amount of money at the auction for Yun Ming.” Qiangu Huangyu said with a smile.

Originally, Qiangu Huangyu and Gu Yuena were called to a meeting by Qiangu Dieting and Beigong Li, but since neither Qiangu Dieting nor Beigong Li were there, Qiangu Huangyu and Gu Yuena went straight into the chat mode.

Gu Yuena also laughed and said, “I remember when Beidexun left the stage, one of the bidders turned pale. How can your efforts alone win over someone else’s accumulation of 20,000 years?”

Qiangu Huangyu said, “But just like the three-word battle armor has not improved much for the Ultimate Douluo, the three-word soul armor has almost no improvement for them, which is why those old guys didn’t die.”

“This time, we are more focused on competing for spots for our younger generations. When the four-character soul armor comes out, I don’t know what kind of bloody storm it will be.”

This time, Qiangu Huangyu can almost be said to be fair, with just enough quotas to allow all major families and forces to benefit.

In order to demonstrate the fairness in the creation of soul armor, Qiangu Dieting even personally participated in the auction and won the soul armor forging rights for Qiangu Dongfeng.

It can be said that except for creators like Qiangu Huangyu and Gu Yuena, no one else will be given a back door.

Apart from causing civilian soul masters to run away with the game, there are no other bad effects.

Suddenly, Qiangu Huangyu stopped talking in an instant, and she felt a spatial fluctuation.

Sure enough, soon a silver-white light flashed, and Qiangu Dieting and Beigong Li appeared here together.

Qiangu Huangyu saw that Beigong Li’s face looked a little bad, and hurriedly asked, “Grandma, what happened?”

Beigong Li said, “We just came back from Mingdu, and there is another trouble in the Shadow Council.”

Qiangu Huangyu was naturally not surprised by this. As someone who was being trained as a successor, she had long known about the existence of the Shadow Council. Moreover, with Beigong Li’s status, an ordinary council could not control her at all.

Qiangu Dieting said, “Yu Haosheng and Chen Yiming, those old guys want to use the Blood God Legion as an excuse to get us to build soul armor for them. Not only do they want to cut in line, they don’t even want to pay us.”

Beigong Li continued, “Xiao Yu, you also know that the Blood God Corps bears the great responsibility of resisting the abyss. Usually, any new weapons of the Federation are allocated to the Blood God Corps first.”

“Moreover, the Blood God Army is located in a remote area. Its military expenses are entirely dependent on funding from the parliament and sponsorship from major forces and families. Its income is not actually high in the entire military world.”

“The Blood God Legion is so important, but the soldiers’ income is not high?” Gu Yuena asked.

Beigong Li said, “If we only look at the salary, then the soldiers of the Blood God Corps undoubtedly have the highest salary. However, all the federal armies except the Blood God Corps can engage in business.”

“Just like the Ocean Chamber of Commerce of Chen Yiming’s Poseidon Corps, the Ocean Chamber of Commerce is invincible in the Tianhai Alliance and is in an absolutely dominant position.”

“In addition, various miscellaneous taxes and fees also go into their pockets.”

“If you take this money into account, then we will surpass the Blood God Legion.”
