Armipotent Chapter 388
Advertisement
What happened after Pride killed General Abiel was a slaughter. Kairu and Pride slaughtered the Bombyx Mori army, only two of them.
Tang Shaoyang would hunt the one who tried to run away. He made sure that none of them could escape from this place.
The reason was to retrieve the Elemental Core from them. Zowen told him that the Elemental Beast possessed a core. The core was the source of their elemental prowess.
He did not want to miss any cores from them. It took them ten minutes to finish off the Bombyx Mori army. It took them another five to dig out the core from the corpses.
Meanwhile, Helia led her kind to follow Kairu and Tang Shaoyang. From the exchange between Kairu and the male human, she discovered the male human was the Emperor.
She was shocked as to how Kairu easily defeated Elder Giel. Now she got to meet the Emperor, she was curious and also nervous at the same time.
Helia was curious how strong the Emperor was for someone as strong as Kairu was willing to follow him. She was nervous because she had to greet the new Lord.
Then she got to see the hundreds of her kinds being slaughtered before her. Even though she hated them for not helping her tribe. The scene still bothered her very much.
"Hooo, who is this? The reinforcement?" Tang Shaoyang noticed Helia and her tribe's arrival. Different color but the same creature, he thought Helia and her tribe was the reinforcement.
Helia's eyes met with Tang Shaoyang. As soon as their gazes met, Helia subconsciously lowered her gaze. She then flew down to the ground and knelt until her head touched the ground.
"Helia greets Your Majesty!" Along with her words, her tribe also followed in tow. More than a hundred Light Bombyx Mori Tribe knelt to Tang Shaoyang.
"They are the Light Bombyx Mori Tribe, My Lord," Pride immediately came over and explained.

"So they want to be the empire's vassal?" Tang Shaoyang observed the Light Bombyx Mori before casting [Basic Detection] on Helia.
——————————
Name: Helia
Race: Elemental Beast
Affiliation: Light Bombyx Mori Tribe
Rank: Chief Tribe
Evolution: Stage-6
Level: 149
Skill: [Light Healing] [Light Shield] [Light Radiance] [Light Impetus] [Light Dome] [Rain of Light] [Augmented Light] [Light Fall]
——————————
He was surprised as he managed to see the skill. It was unusual for sure. Tang Shaoyang then tried the detection on the other Light Bombyx Mori. He could see their skills as well.
Not much different as most of them had the healing skills. Aside from healing, he did not understand the other skills.
"You know, you can be the empire's vassal if you and your tribe can contribute to the Empire. If you are just seeking protection from us then…" Before Tang Shaoyang could finish his words, Helia cut in midway.
"We can be very useful to the Empire!" As soon as she said that, Helia immediately regretted it. She realized that it was rude to cut her Lord's words midway.
"Helia!" Pride shouted from the side while pointing his finger at the Chief of the Light Bombyx Mori Tribe.
"I apologize for my impudence, Your Majesty. This Helia deserves punishment!" Helia immediately apologized and lowered her head even more.
"That's fine, but you should prove your worth if you want to be the Empire's vassal. What can you and your tribe do for the Empire?" Tang Shaoyang asked with a smile, "Oh, you can stand!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty," Helia got up on her six feet and was followed by her kind, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Our tribe may be lacking in combat, but we excelled to be the main support in the war. To prove that, I have a request for your, Your Majesty."
Tang Shaoyang nodded, "Say your request!"

"Can I cast my skill on you, Your Majesty?" Helia remained respectful as she mentioned her request. It might be rude but she needed to do so to showcase her supporting skills.
"Good, let's try it out, your skills!" Tang Shaoyang agreed to the request easily. He also wanted to know what the Light Bombyx Mori's other skills did.
Meanwhile, Pride was gesturing with his finger toward Helia. He pointed his eyes before pointing her fingers toward her. Then he made a cutting throat motion with his thumb. He was telling her, "I am watching you if you do something funny, you will be dead!"
Helia did not need to be warned, she was not going to suicide by doing something funny to this man. She did not know how and why, but the moment she met his gaze. There was a strong urge from inside, telling her to kneel. Then her body moved on its own, she immediately knelt toward Tang Shaoyang.
"I have healing skills, a wide area of healing, and also concentrated healing for one individual. But since you are not injured, we have to skip the healing skill to my support skills!" Helia explained her skills. The wide range of healing was certainly very useful, especially in a big war that involved many people.
"Hmmm, we can try that later. Let's skip the healing and continue your support skill," Tang Shaoyang nodded expressionlessly.
"Alright, I will cast my skill now," Helia cast her first skill, [Light Shield]. The light then surrounded Tang Shaoyang, shielding him from an attack that might hurt him.
The skill was similar to his [Flame Shield]. The difference was that [Light Shield] was just for protection while [Flame Shield] would counter the one who broke the shield with flame.
"Next!" Tang Shaoyang said in an uninterested tone.
Helia nodded, she was nervous but confident with her skill, "The next skill is a wide range buff skill, [Light Radiance]."
She cast the skill and her body was glowing in yellow. The glow was bright but the glow did not hurt the eyes. Tang Shaoyang's sight was not disrupted by the light.
[You have received [Light Radiance] buff. All your attributes are increased by 5% for thirty minutes!]
"The [Light Radiance] buff's range is around a hundred meters. The force I regard as an ally will receive the buff," Helia explained how her skill was working.
"I receive the buff as well," Kairu and Pride informed Tang Shaoyang.
Tang Shaoyang began to show an interest in the other skills, "This is indeed very useful. Can the buff get stacked? I mean if fifty of you cast the same skill, my army would have a 100% buff."
"Unfortunately, it does not work that way, Your Majesty. But we can cast the skill in turn so the buff lasts longer," Helia answered immediately.
"It's indeed unfortunate, what about other skills?" Tang Shaoyang responded in a regretful tone.
"The next skill is [Light Dome]..." Helia cast the wide range protection, but Tang Shaoyang was not interested in that. She could tell that by looking at his expressionless face.
"The next one is an individual buff, [Augmented Light]. I will cast the skill on you now, Your Majesty," Helia gave a heads up.
[Augmented Light]
Helia's whole body shone brightly, basking in the light. Then the light shot toward Tang Shaoyang, wrapping his body with light. At the same time, Tang Shaoyang received the notification.
[You have received [Augmented Light] buff. All your attributes are increased by 20% for ninety minutes!]
