YM778.TV Chapter 581 Doubts
"Magical Scale? What was that?" Yvette asked in a soft voice.
Lesley found it surprising that Yvette wasn\'t aware of this since it was quite popular within the Zemin Clan. Most of the members were able to purchase a scale or two of this Mythical Beast. They may be expensive but they\'re still very a life-saving treasure so anyone is expected to purchase a few of them if possible.
"It\'s a scale that came from the River Dragon. It seems that Sir Krusk can create 50 to 80 of them per day. It would then be processed by some Formation Experts and Magic Craftsmen to create a life-saving treasure."
Yvette was surprised to hear this since none of her exploration team mentioned anything about this.
"Well, it would always be sold out immediately once they\'ve appeared so perhaps the news didn\'t spread…" Lesley added.
"So it was like that…"
"Yes… I also heard that Sir Krusk must be fed with special meat so he can shed more scales… That\'s likely the reason why it\'s very expensive." Lesley explained with a dry laugh.
Yvette was even more curious now as she couldn\'t wait to be her turn to purchase. Luckily, there were only six people inside so it didn\'t take long before it was her turn.
She first purchased the potions and pills that she had originally thought of buying here before asking for the River Dragon\'s Magical Scale.
"The scale is sold for 5,000 gold and 100 mana crystals." The clerk said as she took out a fist size scale which is super small considering the River Dragon\'s size.
Is this a scale Krusk made when he was in his human form?
For a moment, Yvette entertained this thought.
The clerk seems to have noticed her reaction as she smiled and explained to Yvette, "A single scale from the River Dragon can be crafted into six magic tools like this. To ensure better sales, the craftsmen made them all look like a smaller version of the real River Dragon scale."
"I see… Having a uniform look makes it slightly better indeed." Yvette cleared her thoughts as she paid for the item…
She also asked the clerk to view the item description or the Appraisal result of the scale. In any case, all the items being sold in the Beacon Magic Shop have been inspected by an expert Appraiser.
She was then redirected to the shelf on the leftmost side of the store where the scale was displayed and on its side was a square wooden slab where its item description was fully listed.
[ River Dragon\'s Magic Protection Scale ]
[ Quality: Epic
Durability: 650
Description: A refined magical ornament made of River Dragon\'s Scale, Fine Arcane Burr, Red Coil Dust, and other ingredients. It can provide strong protection until the energy stored inside is depleted.

It can block 20 shots from the Rifle before showing signs of destruction.
It is strongest when blocking any form of water elemental art.
It has a weaker effect when blocking Poison Fog or related abilities. ]
[ Activation: Pour a bit of mana to feel the Formation Core inside the scale. Releasing the seal of the core will release the Formation Art imbued on the scale. ]
The list clearly noted the use of the scale and even how to trigger it.
\'It\'s only an epic grade but it can block 20 shots from the Black Rifle?\'
Yvette is clearly aware of the power of that firearm develop by Vincent\'s special team of crafters. She heard that these people were the first members of Vincent\'s clan. When Vincent arrived on this continent, she heard that he found these talented people escaping from the grasp of the cruel magicians of the 15th Tower.
Some of them would normally drink in the central tavern and when drunk, they would tell stories about when they were still in a small residence at the First Black Tower\'s city.
Then, they would boast about the knowledge passed down to them by Vincent which includes the knowledge of the firearm.
Needless to say, they somehow leaked that these rifles can easily destroy Rare or Unique grade items and needs three to four shots for an Epic Grade to be destroyed.
These experiments were done inside the military grounds so normal people wouldn\'t know about it at all.
Furthermore, aside from Vincent, no one would waste an Epic Grade item at all!
When they were still in the Tudor Kingdom, Unique or Epic Grade items would normally be heirlooms of their families. However, after arriving in Vera City, their concept of precious items had been completely turned around.
With this scale, Yvette\'s preparation has been completed.
She then looked at Lesley who had just completed her purchase. They weren\'t sure about the real dangers they\'ll encounter in Nidite City but with this protection, they somehow felt a lot better.
In the early morning of the next day, two flying airships left Vera City to station at Nidite City.
Most of the citizens in the city heard about the situation in Nidite City.
Silently, they prayed to Vera to give them protection and peace including strength to give them the courage to fight for the things they wish to protect.
***
On top of the Kayser Tower, two Celestial Beings watched the two airships leave the city.
They were Celestial Number 115 or Katea and Celestial Number 105 or Lucia.
"We\'ve recovered more than 15% of our Celestial Energy in just a few days. Shouldn\'t we help defend the Nidite City?" Katea asked as she looked at Lucia confused by the decision she made.
Lucia didn\'t feel guilty about her decision and shook her head while explaining.
"Vincent informed us to investigate our own bodies and make sure not to find any problems. It\'s obvious that he\'s planning to increase the number of Celestials who will be connected to him through the Tree of Faith. We can\'t put ourselves in danger."
"Do you think there\'s really a danger with that lineup? There were only 10 Celestials and 2 Paragons. The rest are just a bunch of Martial Artist Experts." Katea asked doubtfully.
