Villain With The Strongest System-Chapter 216: Geared Up
After placing a delivery order for the swords, Rocky began searching for some cheap yet effective armor sets that he could purchase for under 200,000 TG.
Browsing through the marketplace, he came across several options, however, most of them were too expensive costing over 500,000 TG at epic rank and unaffordable to the poor him.
Setting the price filter to be between 150,000 to 200,000 TG, Rocky hence narrowed down the search choices, as he was then left with only four final Armor set options to choose from.
For these four sets however, he meticulously noted down the details, weighing the pros and cons of each set, as he made his choice with full sincerity even though the Armor wasn't as valuable.

After reviewing the four armor sets, Rocky considered their features carefully.
First, he dismissed the Guardian's Valor Set as although it offered great balance and speed, its overall defensive capabilities were slightly lower compared to the others.
Next, he ruled out the Ironclad Defender Set as while the armor provided excellent protection against physical and elemental attacks, its high weight was a potential hindrance for his mobility in fast-paced battles.
This left him with the Abyssal Guard Set and the Sentinel's Aegis Set.
The Abyssal Guard Set had great defensive properties and enhanced vision, but its slightly heavier weight made Rocky hesitate.
On the other hand, the Sentinel's Aegis Set, though slightly more expensive, offered better overall damage absorption and stability without compromising too much on mobility.
After a moment of deliberation, Rocky decided to go with the Sentinel's Aegis Set as the enhanced battlefield awareness and superior damage reduction made it the best choice for his needs.
With his decision made, Rocky placed an order for the Sentinel's Aegis Set, confident that this armor would provide the protection he needed in the challenges ahead.
Racking up a total purchase bill of 990,000 TG, Rocky transferred that money from his system space to Amelia as he masqueraded it as coming out of a storage bag.
"Here, 990,000 TG, Aunt Amelia–" Rocky said, handing over the money to Amelia so that she could pay for the deliveries when they arrived a few minutes later.
"Very good… paying in advance like a gentleman always should!" Amelia said approvingly as she kicked the sacks of money and rolled them behind her desk.
"Now go back to work, you have had enough break…. They need you back in there" Amelia said, as she pushed Rocky back into the pit of headaches.

( Meanwhile Perseus )
"Sister… sister…. Sister… my dear sister!" Perseus said as he clapped his hands and walked towards Sophia in a drunken stupor.
The reconstruction efforts of the Floor21 palace were in full swing and with Sophia's return, Perseus could not be any happier.
Lately, due to high performance pressure, Perseus had turned to alcohol to calm his nerves as he drank heavily to cope with the pressure of potentially losing his life and everything dear to him in the upcoming war.
As he walked towards Sophia in a drunken stupor, Sophia could not help but tremble involuntarily, as she already feared Perseus when he was in full senses, however, the drunken him only scared her more.
"My beautiful sister…" Perseus said, running his fingers down her face as he looked into her green eyes with hatred.
"I hope you have done your job…. I hope you have invited Rocky Yadav to the farmers cabin outside, so that he may lead his forces into a trap set by me" Perseus said, as he dreamt of a strategic masterstroke whereby Rocky would lead his forces through the secret tunnel leading to the underground prison, only to be walking into an ambush set by the Olympian forces.
"Yes, brother…. I have done my part, Rocky doesn't suspect a thing…. He will meet me at the farmer's cabin outside.
Regardless of whether he comes alone or with an army, I can assure you that at least he will not survive your schemes" Sophia assured as Perseus nodded in satisfaction.
"The ocean breeze touches my heart…. La, la la lala…" Perseus sang and began to dance, as the good news from Sophia made him bubble up with joy.
If he could capture the Champion Of Gemini and deliver him to their father. Then it would be an accomplishment that could wipe out all his past misdoings, hence capturing Rocky was his sole priority in this war, regardless of whether they lost or won the floor raid.
