I Will Teach You How to Hunt Gods-Chapter 546 - 138: The Armored One

"I... um... I..."

Feeling the flow of Inscribed Metal on her skin, Yun You couldn't help but bite her tongue.

It hurt a lot.

It was only then that she dared to believe that she had truly obtained this armor... it wasn't a dream, but an ironclad fact!

Her heart was pounding, overwhelmed with indescribable excitement.

However, after a brief moment of excitement, the young girl gradually calmed down, feeling a bit unsure about how to face Old Jin.

Yun You had guessed that she might obtain a mecha exclusively for herself in the future, but she had never imagined that her first mecha would be such a powerful set of near-military armor, and it was also growth-capable, crafted from the magical Death Domain Metal...

In the words of Master Zero, this set of armor was enough for Yun You to use until the end of her life.

This gift was simply too precious... even for Yun You, who now possessed an entire business group, it was a priceless treasure.

The saying goes, "Don't take benefits without merit." If it were just treasures worth a few hundred or thousand Yabi, Yun You could convince herself to accept it, but with something so incredibly valuable, she really didn't know whether she should accept it.

Moreover, from the characteristics of the Inscribed Metal, the stronger the user, the better the armor's performance.

Since it reached the level of near-military prosthetic body for Yun You, with a D10 hardness and D12 flexibility, if it were given to Jiang Wuji or Chen Zaikun, wouldn't it transform into a true military prosthetic body armor?

"Alright, alright, don't overthink it, girl."

Old Jin evidently noticed Yun You's concern and smiled as he shook his head.

"Whether an item is valuable or cheap doesn't really matter, because its value always depends on its user and how it is used."

Saying this, he paused for a moment, then took another good look at Yun You, with an appreciation that wasn't the least bit hidden.

However, this time, what appeared in the old man's eyes wasn't pure admiration, but rather a hint of regret and melancholy.

"I think if Erin knew you were wearing the armor she made, she would be happy too."

With that, he seemed unwilling to dwell on this topic any longer and slightly turned around, seemingly planning to leave.

"Go on, take this armor and pursue your grand ambitions."

"With its help, at least you won't be bullied by those petty people anymore... and you'll also have the chance to face off against your two enemies."

"Next time you need to contact me, just go find Shiqi, and have her call me via Ethernet."

After leaving these instructions, Old Jin waved his hand and directly turned to leave. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Upon seeing this, Yun You instinctively removed her helmet and softly asked, "Master, are you going to teach?"

"Yes."

Old Jin nodded slightly, not looking back, and answered with a smile, "Those children are studying very seriously, astronomy, geography, law, history... and most importantly, the concept of equality and everyone's inherent right to pursue fairness. They really like this knowledge and sincerely agree with it all."

"But this..."

Yun You hesitated for a long while before quietly asking, "Is this really going to help our cause in a big way?"

The girl's words actually had another meaning she left unsaid, which was—Can those children, and all the civilians who received Old Jin's favor, really play any role in the struggle among the Apprentice Death Gods?

It wasn't that Yun You looked down on civilians. She herself had once been among the lowest of the lower class, having tasted the bittersweetness of life, so how could she disdain these similarly low-born people?

But precisely because she used to be a civilian, and had challenged Death as a mortal, she knew just how vast the gap was between mortals and gods.

It's no exaggeration to say that humans and Apprentice Death Gods are already considered two different species, with similarities only in appearance and no reproductive isolation; in essence and character, they are completely different, like elephants and ants.

Ants can indeed bite and kill elephants, but when the power gap between them exceeds ten thousand times, or even a hundred thousand times, then no matter how many ants there are, they cannot threaten the elephant's status.

Yun You had previously heard that Apprentice Death Gods above Tier Three are often called "Super Units" on the battlefield. Even when bare, they can rival armies, requiring thousands of fully armed soldiers to restrain them.

Soldiers who are well-trained and heavily armed are barely enough, not to mention civilians...

For instance, speaking of Yun You herself, if she was to have a life-and-death battle with the more than ten thousand members of the Huangxing Group, the final outcome would only be Yun You severely injured, and all ten thousand wiped out.

And the severe injury to the young girl would most likely be caused by Yuanbao and Tian En, these Apprentice Death Gods, whereas other mortals would be nothing more than flies casually swatted to death.

Under these circumstances, civilians? It's very hard for them to play any significant role.

"..."

Old Jin paused his steps.

After a long time, he slowly began to speak, with an unprecedentedly firm tone, slowly saying...

"They will be helpful."

"Don't underestimate the power of mortals, Ah You."

"The people are like water that encompasses everything, always silently enduring suffering, bearing the joys and sorrows of different eras, grinding history into food and swallowing it."

"From ancient times to the present, most noble lords, generals, emperors believe that people are mere wild grass to be trampled at will, sheep that would rather starve than rebel."
