âAlright. Youâve vented enough. What exactly is that?â Elliot finally said slightly impatiently. He was in an extremely good mood and he was able to tolerate Redâs hyper over reactions a little bit more.
Just a little bit.
âThis, little pip! Is called the Teardrop of the Gods! This is THE best! THE VERY best material to make armor! It is completely impervious to physical, magical AND! Get this. AND⦠soul damage!! Ancient level powerhouses would KILL and RAVAGE entire star systems to get their hands on this!
Itâs beyond precious! Itâs⦠itâs⦠itâsâ¦â Red sputtered for a while as he searched for the right word to describe it.
However, Elliot frowned lightly.
âOkay, itâs the ultimate material to forge armor with. But if itâs so powerful, how on earth do I make it into armor? Wouldnât it resist every attempt to melt it down and forge it into something useful?â Elliot asked.
âThat, little pip, is why Elemental Spitters like ME! Are so highly favored and in so much demand! Once our Elemental Deconstruction skill has reached a high enough level, it is rumoured that we would be able to deconstruct and then reconstruct even Teardrops of the Gods!â Red shouted triumphantly.
âWhat? Rumoured? You mean it has never been done?â Elliot grimaced at Red with disappointment.
âYes, of course. This is raw material that only Ancient level powerhouses and above can forge. Of course Iâve only heard rumours about it! You think that the sole Ancient Level Elemental Spitter in the universe often talk to me and tell me about his experiences?â Red rolled his eyes at Elliot.
âIf thatâs the case, then this Teardrop of the Gods is practically useless to me now.â Elliot sighed deeply. âIâll just keep it first then. Whoa, itâs pretty heavy.â
Elliot dumped the incredible but useless Teardrop of the Gods rather carelessly into his storage.
It was definitely something that he would require in the future. But for now⦠itâs more than useless.
âQuickly level up and help me create an armor out of it!â Elliot ordered Red before dismissing him.
It was a good thing that Chairman ElâTaras wasnât paying attention to Elliot at that moment. If not, he would probably cry when he saw that another Beyond SSS grade material had disappeared from his pool of item rewards.
âFinally!â Elliot, Jessica and Jennifer sighed together before they looked at each other in surprise and laughed.
âCanât wait to see the jewelry box huh?â Elliot smiled at his sisters.
âHehehe. Absolutely not. We are just relieved that the talkative birdie is gone!â Jennifer laughed.
âYeahhh he truly is talkative! But he is also a walking forgemaster. So we need him.â Elliot chuckled.
He picked up the jewelry box and opened it.
In it were five similar rings.
âHmmmm? Rings. Letâs see what it does. Ring of Absolute Stealth. Render the user completely invisible and undetectable at will. Wow! Jess! Jen! Here, take one each!â Elliot marvelled at the awesomeness and generosity of the reward for that hidden dungeon.
âThis is awesome!â Jennifer said happily. âWasnât there a ring with similar effect in a really old but famous movie? What was the title again? King of the Rings? God of the Rings? Something like that.â
âItâs Duke of the Rings silly.â Jessica chided Jennifer as she played with her ring and appeared and then disappeared for a couple of times.
âWas it? It doesnât sound quite right. But anyway, good job big bro! You did well in getting such awesome rewards for us!â Jennifer gave Elliot a big thumbs up in approval.
âOf course. Your big brother is the luckiest person on earth!â Elliot said proudly.
Together, they moved on to the next drone.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
âTruly the unluckiest person on earth.â Jessica sighed as they emptied the third and finally drone with a slight tinge of sadness.
The second drone had only contained the promised Portable Dimensional Fortress and nothing else.
It was fine, considering that Elliot truly needed the item so that he could bring his group of survivors around with him.
But the third and final drone had completely stunned them in terms of how crappy the rewards were!
As usual, there were three items within it.
But from the get go, it was a massive disappointment.
The first item was a vial of Blood Essence. However, it was the Blood Essence of a Centipede Overlord!
âEw! Gross! Put it away! Put it away!â Jennifer had immediately said.
Elliot had kept it ruefully. Although powerful, it was definitely something that he wouldnât want any of his siblings or friends to consume!â
The second was a small box containing a little toy keychain in the shape of a submarine.
âA pretty large submarine. It can fit a crew of three hundred. And it has really powerful underwater laser cannons.â Elliot said as he read the description.
âItâs⦠very useful⦠I guess?â Jessica had sighed in disappointment.â
The third and final item was⦠pills.
Just another huge pile of strength pills, intelligence pills and of course, the aliensâ all time favorite, speed pills.
âSave it for the survivors, I guess. It will be good to have a bunch of more powerful underlings.â Jennifer had suggested.
Elliot had immediately agreed and stored the pills as well.
As soon as the rewards were claimed, the familiar sensation of space energy shimmering around them appeared and poof!
They appeared on planet earth once more.
âAhh. Itâs good to be back! What were we about to do? Oh! The Eradicating Emperors and Hunting Hegemons game! Well, I think weâve proven ourselves capable of dealing with Hegemons, right big bro?â Jessica said.
âYes, indeed. You two girls can come along with me. But you will have to promise that you will not engage in unnecessary battles, and listen to all of my instructions!â Elliot said sternly.
âOf course! We promise!â Jennifer said.
âGood. Now take this Dimensional Storage Fortress and get everyone to get in. I will absorb that Red Dragon Blood Essence and we will move out in six hours!â Elliot instructed his sisters with a smile.
âAye aye boss!â Jessica shouted and gave Elliot a smart salute.
âYour wish is my command boss!â Jennifer shouted and saluted Elliot too.
And with that, the three siblings went on to do their tasks.
âLetâs see just how powerful the full Red Dragon Transformation is!â Elliot thought to himself as he consumed the blood essence right there and then!
