I Can Make Everything Level UP

Chapter 539 Armors (3)

　　 I'm the end. Billy did as Kate asked. He decided not to stay cooped in his workshop all day. Although he spent more time with his family, half of his head still was working on that project. One might think that he was being rude to them, but since he was doing that to keep them safe, the power of his guilt had been halved. While it made her frown since she could tell what he was thinking, she couldn't complain more. Billy was more than thankful for her understanding.

　　 Regardless, Billy finally finished the first phase of his project. He finally completed and optimized the design of the armor. He didn't like the feeling of being stuck inside something small, so the first prototype was going to be four meters tall, around one and a half meters large. Since Billy was planning to use chromium as a basis, it would be pretty heavy, but even slow and short attacks would pack quite a lot of punch.

　　 Speaking of design, Billy wanted to make it as subtle as possible. Otherwise, he would die of cringe since he wasn't at an age where he would find it cool to wear flashy armors. In any case, once it is finished, Billy would paint the armor black, and since it had some slightly round parts on the joints and boomerang-like parts on the head and on the back of the armor to help with the aerodynamics, it looked like an armor of famous character of a video game which had many times of armor, and he fought many Mavericks.

　　"I guess the core will have to be on the back… Some enemies might try to attack from behind, but the flow of mana will move faster that way," Billy thought. "Besides, it will be better if I attach some defensive barriers in case my back is attacked, to respond faster, the core will have to be close to it."

　　 Since he had already planned most of the armor inside his head, he had an easy time making all the parts. While he wasn't planning to make it functional on the first try, he wanted to at least feel it when it was complete.

　　 In any case, Billy had a hard time wearing the full armor since it was pretty heavy, and it wasn't even complete… He probably will crack the ground if he tries to walk on it. Regardless, when he finished putting all the parts, he had quite a good feeling… He felt a lot sturdier than before. In any case, after he put on the helmet, he had the idea of making a hardened dark glass to protect his eyes and hide them from the enemy as well. It would be nice if he could add some interface on it that could tell him how much mana the armor had available.

　　"Considering how heavy this is… the core will have to be a lot more potent than I had planned," Billy thought. "Wait… Maybe I should install more than one. That way, it will recover mana and store even more mana than expected."

　　 That idea wasn't so bad, the only downside was the fact that he would have to level up more than one core at the same time, and he will also have to reformulate the magic circuits of the armor a bit. Still, Billy could see its performance increasing by leaps and bounds.

　　"Hehe, with something like this, I won't feel so awkward while fighting and flying at the same time," Billy thought. "Perhaps I should increase the size of my glaive to work alongside the armor."

　　 That was another thing that Billy could do later. First of all, he had to finish the first prototype and then slowly upgrade it until it became a tool like no other. Billy didn't waste time since Icarus still didn't send his report, and Billy had a bad feeling about that… However, one warm after he left, that moron finally wrote something, but Billy wasn't so sure of what he was reading…

　　 Giant monsters, giant insects, never-ending forested, and demi-humans… Apparently, Icarus saw those while he was exploring the new continent. In terms of diversity, the new continent was on a whole new level… Billy couldn't help but feel excited, considering the things he could learn there. Putting aside combat skills, it was clear that the inhabitants of such a place developed in a very different manner than the people of Billy's continent.

　　"It seems that Icarus haven't found any signs of the Necromancer yet… the new continent might be even bigger thant his and considering that he has to be cautious, it is no surprise," Billy thought. "Nevertheless, even if he doesn't find anything about the Necromancer, any information about this continent will be valuable, I'd better tell him to focus on gathering information and not being discovered."

　　 Billy couldn't rush to finish the first prototype of his armor, and he would be more or less forced to use it if Icarus was found. Even if he doesn't go to help him, the enemies will probably discover that they are being watched and that someone is preparing to face them. Be it the necromancer or someone else, it might give the start of a new battle. Although the distance between both continents was massive, Billy could think of numerous ways for that distance not to become a problem… depending on the skills and powers the people and monsters of the new continent might have, maybe it already wasn't a problem…

　　 Regardless, worrying endlessly about the things that he didn't know wouldn't help Billy in any way. So, he decided to focus on the things he could do. In the end, it took Billy one week for him to finish the first prototype of his armor. He got quite satisfied with what he got, even without testing its performance and considering that it took him so long to make a single one.
