Chapter 295: IUD-CHAPTER 295 BO XIE
"Tsuutensoku."
As the name suggests, it's a pair of boot-shaped Ogre Luxes.
This particular Ogre Lux used to belong to Rewolf Black Academy and was originally called "Hermes Flying Boots."
Its ability is quite simple: it allows the user to walk freely in the air as if they were flying.
This ability, on its own, seemed rather unremarkable.
So, for Rewolf Black Academy, which embraced violence, this Ogre Lux was highly unpopular.
As a result, it was eventually handed over to Jie Long Seventh Institute and renamed "Tsuutensoku."
Zhao Hufeng was the user of this Ogre Lux.
Admittedly, when considering just the ability, Tsuutensoku was not a particularly powerful Ogre Lux.
However, when paired with an outstanding martial artist specializing in hand-to-hand combat, it could produce unimaginable results.
For example, Zhao Hufeng, a speed-type martial artist, with the added ability to fly, could be likened to a Gryphon that could swoop down from the sky at any moment. This could potentially double his combat effectiveness.
"However, Senior Brother Zhao has never been willing to use this Ogre Lux," Fang Li remarked. "Although, in my opinion, such stubbornness seems unnecessary."
Even if it's external help, the extent to which it can be used depends on the user's abilities.
For instance, Tsuutensoku's ability was widely considered unremarkable. Still, in Zhao Hufeng's hands, it could achieve astonishing results, proving this point.
In the Main God's Dimension, one of the elements that constitute the strength of a Divine Envoy is "Equipment."
This demonstrates that, for people, equipment is also an essential component of their strength.
"But some people tend to become dependent on powerful weapons and subsequently fall from grace. That's a fact," Fan Xinglou said without looking back at Fang Li. "That kid Hufeng wants to remind himself not to become addicted to the power of weapons but to focus on self-improvement."
This made sense.
Just like Fang Li, who had come to Jie Long Seventh Institute to improve himself and enhance his combat skills rather than relying solely on the potent ability of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, right?
Only by doing so could Fang Li continue to climb the ranks.
Having great personal strength, coupled with powerful abilities, ultimately unleashed the most formidable power.
"In Jie Long Seventh Institute, many martial artists share the same philosophy. This makes Ogre Luxes rather unpopular in our academy. However, Ogre Luxes are provided by the Integrated Enterprise Foundation, and even if they're not primarily used to enhance students' strength, they still need data collection," Fan Xinglou turned around and looked at Fang Li, smiling meaningfully. "So, to achieve our data collection goals, how do you think our academy should proceed?"
Upon hearing this, Fang Li began to understand.
"So that's how it is," Fang Li said with realization. "You want me to use an Ogre Lux, right?"
Fan Xinglou replied with a question, "Why, don't you want to?"
"…Well, that's not my concern," Fang Li frowned and said, "But I don't want to be led around by an Ogre Lux."
Ogre Luxes are conscious beings.
Previously, Pan-Dora had forcefully dragged Fang Li into a dream due to its peculiar taste, making him experience his own death. Furthermore, Ogre Luxes could choose their users, and if the user did something displeasing, they could abandon the user at any time and refuse to provide power.
In essence, wanting to use an Ogre Lux was no different from serving a demanding master.
In fact, in the Asterisk City, there were quite a few Genestellars who were led around by Ogre Luxes due to the Luxes' own requirements. Although the power of Ogre Luxes was attractive, Fang Li didn't want to be manipulated so casually.
Perhaps understanding Fang Li's concerns, Claudia, who was leading the way, spoke up with a knowing smile.
"Don't worry about that part," She said. "Compared to Pan-Dora, that child has a relatively good personality. As long as you don't do anything to upset her… I mean, it's a she, and if you take good care of her and perform regular maintenance, she'll be more than willing to lend you her power."
Fang Li was left speechless.
An Ogre Lux with cleanliness issues?
Well, it was a bit surprising…
"Fang-San, of course, whether you can gain the approval of that Ogre Lux will also depend on fate," Fan Xinglou chimed in with a mischievous smile. "After what happened to Pan-Dora in your hands, I hope this one isn't a scaredy-cat."
"Yeah," Claudia added with an intriguing tone, smiling at Fang Li. "Don't go scaring these kids again, okay?"
Fang Li chuckled and didn't say much, continuing to follow Claudia toward their destination.
…
Guided by Claudia, Fang Li and Fan Xinglou arrived at a large building. They took an elevator down and eventually reached a spacious area that resembled a training room.
The ceiling of this room was high, and the walls were neatly arranged in hexagonal patterns. One wall had a glass panel, through which they could see many people in white coats arranging something, giving it the appearance of a laboratory.
In the center of this laboratory-like space, a metal storage cabinet was placed.
The cabinet's door was already open.
Inside, a mechanical-looking hilt was suspended.
That was the activation body of the Ogre Lux.
The activation body was entirely pure white, and in the center of the sword's hilt, there was an embedded pure white Urm Manadyte.
Looking at this Ogre Lux, Fan Xinglou's voice rang out slowly.
"This is the pride of Jie Long Seventh Institute's Seventh Academy, the Ogre Lux — 'Bo Xie'."
