Douluo: Starting from the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon

Chapter 179 Armor, Hateful Ringless Set!
Compared with the lavish gifts of the royal family, the gifts sent by the Lin family seemed quite conventional. The dozen or so gifts sent out neither belittled the Lin family's status and face, nor did they appear to be particularly outstanding.

In fact, this is the norm for sending gifts. Not every force is as wealthy as the royal family, who owns the entire Tiandou Empire and has accumulated heritage over countless years.

Moreover, the royal family has a close relationship with the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, and Xue Qinghe is nominally the disciple of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's leader Ning Fengzhi. If the gift sent is too mediocre, it will only bring shame to the royal family.

Soon, the old butler returned to Lin Rong after delivering the gifts.

At this time, the guests in the garden all turned their eyes to Tang San, wanting to know what kind of gift he could come up with.

There has been constant cooperation between the Tang Sect and the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.

Now that the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's young master is holding an engagement party, the Tang Sect represented by Tang San must come up with a gift that shows enough thoughtfulness, rather than just giving out something random and being done with it.

"Ahem." Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, Tang San immediately turned his head away guiltily and looked at Tai Long who was standing next to him.

"Talon, take out the gift I asked you to prepare."

This was Tang San's first time attending such a banquet. The deceased Tang Yuehua couldn't tell Tang San that an engagement banquet required the preparation of gifts.

Logically speaking, Tang San had received birthday gifts at his ninth birthday party, so he should know that gifts are required when attending similar banquets.

But judging from Tang San's reaction, he seemed to have completely forgotten about it.

Tang San's face had been looking strange since the gift-giving session began, and this time he directly put all the blame on Tai Long.

If Tyrone himself is prepared, then everything will be fine and everything will be his credit.

But if Tyrone was not prepared, then everything would be Tyrone's fault for not bringing out the gift he had prepared.

"As you command, young master." Tai Long replied dully.

In fact, Ning Fengzhi had anticipated this kind of information, so he passed the news about the gift in advance, but the message stopped when it reached Tailong and did not reach Tang San.

When Tyrone received the news, he felt extremely unbalanced.

What the Tang Clan earned from selling hidden weapons was money, not any rare treasures.

All the birthday gifts that Tang San received on his ninth birthday were collected by Tang Yuehua, and none of them were stored in the Tang Clan warehouse.

Therefore, the gift for this engagement party can only come from the treasure house of their Li clan.

But the Li clan never liked those luxurious things that looked good but were useless, and they felt that they were not as practical as money and metal.

But the gift had to be good enough, so Tyrone just went for it.

In order not to lose Tang San's trust before poisoning him to death, he reluctantly turned the treasure house of the Li Clan upside down and barely managed to collect a little over ten precious gifts.

Although the meanings of these gifts were not so consistent with the engagement party, Tyrone had no other choice.

Seeing the dozen or so items that Tai Long took out from the soul guide, the eyes of the guests present all became strange.

"Are these... antiques?" Ning Rongrong looked at the gifts on the ground and her expression suddenly became a little unnatural.

These things may seem precious to Tailong, but in Ning Rongrong's eyes they are nothing but worthless rubbish.

Calling it an antique is already a very polite and respectful statement.

Considering the hidden weapon business between her own sect and the Tang Sect, Ning Rongrong gave enough face and said with a natural smile: "Xiao Ao has always liked collecting antiques. Thank you Tang Sect for taking the trouble to inquire about it."

As she spoke, Ning Rongrong turned her head to look at Oscar beside her, took his hand and said:
"Xiao Ao, didn't you say that because food-type spirit masters have no fighting power, you have always wanted to be a great general on the battlefield?"

"I think this armor is very suitable for you. You will look as majestic as a general when you wear it."

Oscar has a high EQ and understood the situation immediately. He immediately took over Ning Rongrong's words and said:
"Of course. When I wear it, I will look more handsome than a real general."

After that, Oscar looked at Tai Long again and said:

"Thank you for the gift you prepared for me. I like it very much."

Except for a few young people who were ignorant of the ways of the world, the guests present were basically all smart people and could see the true situation of the scene at a glance.

But seeing through something but not saying it out loud is the basic unspoken rule in such situations. Everyone has had times when they want to act out their feelings.

What's more, they were happy to just sit there and watch the show silently.

In the corner of the garden, Lin Rong ignored the voice in his ear, staring at the suit of armor in the gift, thinking:

"Hateful Earth Ringless Suit!"

“I didn’t expect that Hercules’s artifact would appear in the hands of the Power Clan.”

"If you think about it carefully, the attributes of the inherited martial spirit of the Power Clan, the Powerful Ape, are indeed consistent with the inheritance of the throne of Hercules."

"However, since Tai Long gave the Hateful Earth Ringless Set as a gift, it means that he failed to gain recognition from the artifact and only treated it as an ordinary armor set."

"I don't have enough talent. Even if I'm given the opportunity, it's useless!"

The Hateful Land Ringless Set is an artifact set that can be split into four separate artifacts, namely:
Twin Hercules Hammers, Yin-Yang Giant Palms, Source of Strength, Hundred-Leaf Battle Skirt.

These four artifacts, together with the rest of the suit, make up the Hercules artifact "Hateful Earth Ringless Set".

The effect of the artifact is very simple and brutal, which is to increase strength, but the proportion of this increase is extremely exaggerated.

"This artifact can be given to Xu Pan. Although he is not talented enough, it doesn't matter. I just need to take the evil god bead from the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger."

Lin Rong had already made arrangements in his mind instantly about the ownership of the Hateful Earth Ringless Set.

Xu Pan is one of the most loyal elders in the mansion besides the old butler. His martial soul, the Rock-Horned Bull, is a martial soul of strength attribute, which fits the position of Hercules.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t have enough talent, an evil god bead can easily solve the problem.

After all, a natural loser like Zhou Weiqing could instantly become a peerless genius after absorbing the Evil God Pearl.

From this, we can know that the Evil God Pearl can fully improve anyone's qualifications to the level sufficient to obtain the inheritance of the gods.

But this way, he had one more reason to kill the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.

"I never thought that just attending an engagement party would bring me unexpected gains. It would be great if such unexpected gains could happen more often."

Lin Rong turned his eyes away from the Hateful Earth Ringless Suit and thought about how to conquer the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect next.
