Floating Islands: SSS Gacha Lord-Chapter 25 - Nightfall Sentinel

[You have received 5 Elite Exp Orbs]

[You have received 1 Basic Survival Kit]

[You have received 1 Field Cooking Set]

[You have received 1 Basic Pickaxe]

[You have received 10 Small Healing Potion]

[You have received 20 Units of Iron Ingots]

Atlas quickly sorted through the six Rank-B items.

First up: a Basic Survival Kit. Nothing flashy, he’d received one before. Still, it had value. Not the kind of thing that would turn the tide of battle, but if they were ever stuck away from the island without shelter, it could easily save a life.

Next: a Field Cooking Set. Now that was a pleasant surprise. Out on long expeditions, having the ability to cook a real meal could do wonders for morale, and stamina.

The third pull revealed Small Healing Potions, packed neatly in crystal vials. Even with Lyrassa’s healing magic, these were worth their weight in gold. If she ran out of Mana, or if someone got hit too far from her range, these could make the difference between life and death.

Then came the Basic Pickaxe.

Atlas let out a slow sigh. "Seriously?" he muttered.

No one used tools like this anymore, manual mining was practically obsolete for someone with a system-enhanced workforce. Unless he planned to dig by hand for nostalgia, it was more dead weight than treasure.

Let continued to the next Rank-A ticket.

As he selected it, the glowing purple slip shimmered into a sleek, solid black box.

Atlas leaned forward, "What could this one be?"

[You have received 1 Rank-A Item: Soulbinding Armor Set]

[Armor that adapts to the user’s abilities, enhancing defense without restricting movement.]

"An armor set?" Atlas muttered, lifting the black box. He turned it over in his hands, wondering how to activate it.

[Once activated, it will become Soulbinding Armor, adapting to the user with a fitting armor design.]

"So this thing will bind to its wearer and become armor tailored to their needs," he said aloud.

"That will definitely be useful if you choose to wear it yourself, My Lord," Edrik responded.

"Yes," Atlas nodded, the decision coming easily. "This is perfect for melee fighters and frontliners."

And he still lacked a proper armor set, something strong, flexible, and suited to his growing combat style. This Soulbinding Armor felt like it had arrived at just the right moment.

"Let me use this for myself," he said, confirming his choice to the group.

The others nodded in approval as Atlas prepared to activate the box and claim the armor as his own.

[Activating the Soulbinding Armor Set]

[Adapting Armor Set to User]

[You have obtained: Nightfall Sentinel Armor Set]

[Grade: Epic]

[Skills:]

[Lancer’s Endurance (Passive):

Increases the wearer’s stamina and reduces stamina consumption when wielding a spear, enabling longer battles without fatigue.]

[Swift Piercer (Active):

Temporarily boosts movement speed and agility by 20%, allowing for quicker spear thrusts and evasive maneuvers.

[Spear Dance Resilience (Passive):

Reduces incoming damage by 10% when performing rapid spear combos, providing extra durability during offensive play.

Atlas rose to his feet, immediately drawing every eye on the platform.

A sleek, semi-light armor materialized over his body. A powerful fusion of black and deep blue, its design clearly made for speed and strength. Reinforced plating shielded his chest and shoulders, while the flexible armor along his limbs allowed him to move freely, every part built for efficiency in close combat.

He glanced down, admiring how the armor fit him perfectly.

"This armor even granted me three new skills, each one tailored to my spear fighting style," he said with a grin.

"Looks like you’re bound to the spear for life, My Lord," Edrik replied.

"Well, I just hope I can keep developing my spear technique to its fullest."

[Host, this armor set includes a ’Veil Mode’ feature. You can render it invisible while still enjoying its full protection.]

"Then activate the Veil Mode."

In an instant, the armor vanished, leaving only a faint shimmer of blue energy trailing behind him with each movement.

Now he could walk around in his usual attire while remaining fully armored. And when the time for battle came, he could reveal the armor at will.

"That’s certainly an impressive armor set," Edrik said with an approving nod. "May I ask the grade?"

"It’s Epic-grade," Atlas replied with a smile. "Probably worth enough to fund the entire island if we sold it. But it’s soulbound, so it’s mine permanently."

"Your protection will always come first, My Lord. We’ll find other ways to earn gold."

Atlas couldn’t stop the grin that spread across his face. What a pull, what a gift. A Rank-A ticket had given him a soulbound armor set, tailored just for him. Most Awakeners would never even see something like this in their lifetime... and he’d gotten it just by tossing tickets into the air.

Incredible.

Excited, he moved on to the next Rank-A ticket.

[You have received 1 Rank-A Item: Stormcaller’s Amulet]

[Call down lightning strikes, primarily used in defensive strategies.]

An amulet to summon lightning strikes?

Atlas briefly wondered if the person casting it might be at risk of getting hit themselves. Either way, he now had an impressive new option for offensive capabilities.

A high-level mage could likely wield such a skill with more precision, but he assumed it would take someone truly powerful to achieve the devastating effects he imagined.

Satisfied, he stored the item away. It would definitely come in handy when the time came.

[You have received 1 Rank-A Item: Shadow Step Cloak]

[Grants limited invisibility, ideal for infiltrating enemy lines.]

Atlas draped the cloak around his shoulders, mentally triggering its effect. Instantly, his body became semi-transparent.

Still, it wasn’t really made for him.

He removed the cloak and handed it over to Edrik. "I know this will come in handy for you. Take it."

Edrik accepted it with a smile and a slight bow. "My Lord, thank you for this precious gift. I’ll be able to make even better use of it."

Atlas turned to the last Rank-A Ticket, eager to see what fate had in store.

[You have received a Rank-A weapon: (Epic-grade) Obsidian Talon Dagger]

A dagger materialized before him. Its blade was dark steel with an obsidian sheen, sleek and lethal. Blue crystals embedded in the hilt. The hilt was wrapped in dark leather for a sure grip, everything about it built for precision and speed.

[Obsidian Talon Dagger]

[Grade: Epic]

[Strength +50

Agility +100

Movement Speed +10%]

Atlas raised an eyebrow, a grin spreading across his face. He held the dagger out to Edrik. "Happy now?"

"My Lord, it’s surely your luck at work," Edrik replied with a smirk, accepting the weapon with reverence. "I’m just following along in the wake of your incredible fortune."

With the Shadow Step Cloak and now the Obsidian Talon Dagger, Edrik’s stealth capabilities had surged. Combined with his Silent Strike, he was now a deadly force. freewebnoveℓ.com

Atlas felt a flicker of satisfaction. Both his frontline fighters, Karian and Edrik, were now fully armed and equipped. That left Lyrassa and maybe Mira, should they ever be forced into combat.

Could he go for another pull?

He glanced at the remaining tickets.

Why not? A little hope never hurt.

He tossed the tickets into the air, and his eyes widened.

Two purple tickets glowed midair.

This... this could be something special.
