These Familiars Are Strange

In the end, there was nothing that the Master Gnome could do.

He was turned into a burning corpse by the repeated bolts of lightning that came in his direction.

No matter how he tried, the sets of living armour just weren’t able to protect him.

So in the end, he was turned into a burning corpse and the living armour fell to the ground motionless.

After that happened, I immediately sent the monsters under my control to block off the entrances to this hall. I wanted to make sure that not a single person was able to come into this hall while I did my thing.

I also sent Wang Rong and Iris away.

They were already used to this, so they just went over with the monsters to watch the door.

The Scavenger Rabbit did its thing and started digging through the Master Gnome’s burnt corpse.

Even though it had been burnt to the point where it couldn’t be recognized anymore, that didn’t mean that it didn’t have any loot left. I was also looking forward to seeing what kind of loot would come from this Master Gnome.

After all, it had used all of those amazing looking equipment just now. If I was able to get something similar out of it, then it definitely would be very good.

But in the end…

When the Scavenger Rabbit turned around, there were three items that it presented to me.

The one that caught my attention first was a high tech looking glove.

The moment that I saw this glove, I immediately thought about the laser cannon that the Master Gnome used earlier. This glove really looked similar to the one that the Master Gnome had been using.

But in the end, I was disappointed by the appraisal window that showed up.

Magnetic Glove

Uses the power of magnetism to pull metallic objects over. The amount of attractive force that is released is dependent on the amount of mana injected into the glove.

"Dammit, it’s a miss…"

I couldn’t help muttering to myself when I saw the power that this glove had.

For the first time, I really had to doubt the power of the Scavenger Rabbit’s ability…

After all, it normally got me things that were considered far better than what these monsters should have dropped. But for the first time, it felt like the Scavenger Rabbit had missed when it came to the item that it looted.

The next item that it showed me was some kind of square thing.

I didn’t really know what it was until the appraisal window appeared.

The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.

Nanotech Storage Device.

The nanobots stored inside of this device can be freely shaped into what the user desires it to become. It can take the form of a weapon or armour and the strength of this will depend on the mana injected by the user.

I didn’t really get what this meant until I took this thing in my hand and started putting some mana into it.

There was a reaction that came from this square as soon as the mana was injected into it. There were these things that came out of it and took form, but it also didn’t have a form since I didn’t think anything while injecting this mana.

After seeing these things come out of the square, I thought about forming this material into armour.

In no time at all, it wrapped around my arm and formed some kind of gauntlet.

At that, I started to understand just what this thing was and I couldn’t help being surprised.

Then there was a faint smile that appeared on my face.

Even if the first one had been a miss, it seemed like the second one was a hit.

After seeing what this square was capable of, I was filled with different ideas on how I could use this thing. It certainly was an item that would require a lot of imagination to use properly, but I had more than enough of that. Find your next read on novelbuddy

It even made me think of a movie from the era before the gates opened…

There was a certain superhero that had used nanotechnology to create a mechanical suit of armour around himself. If I was able to do the same thing as that superhero…

Well, I’m sure that manipulating the nanotechnology to do that would take a lot of mana, so it wasn’t something that could be relied on.

Still, it was interesting to think about.

The last and final item was…

Key to the armoury.

There was no special description for this item, it just said that this thing was a key to some sort of armoury.

The Master Gnome was an Elite Monster that had created all kinds of different machines and commanded all those special sets of living armour, so it wasn’t strange that it would have an armoury to store all of its items.

That at least made up for the fact that I didn’t get anything special from looting the Master Gnome.

No, it made up for the disappointment of the first item, the Magnetic Glove.

It wasn’t the fault of the Nanotech Storage Device, I couldn’t wrong this thing with baseless accusations.

"Let’s go and see if we can find this armoury." I called out to Wang Rong and Iris after I finished looking at these items.

"Is that key for an armoury?" Wang Rong asked since he couldn’t appraise these items like I could.

I just gave a simple nod before heading in the direction that the Master Gnome had been trying to flee in.

The Master Gnome had chosen to run in that direction, which meant that there had to be something over there that was related to the Master Gnome.

It took a bit of searching after leaving the hall, but we were able to find the workshop of the Master Gnome.

It was similar to the workshop of all the gnomes that I had hypnotized, but it also seemed more high tech in comparison.

But that wasn’t what I was interested in.

My interest was on the door that was on the other side of this room.
