In the past 8 months Yunan spent all his fortune on feeding Drogon better monster cores and carcasses, currently according to Balin, Drogon can basically clear the way for the Valyrians all the way to the 34th floor without much trouble, maybe the 35th if it eats all the monsters it kills.
Among the loot Debauchery had gotten from the supreme cult, there were many mana bombs and mana clusters, as well as enough materials to arm a whole kingdom. And Balin had volunteered to create some sets of armament for the Valyrians to fight with in the dungeon, if Yunan was willing to bless Balin's furnace, which Yunan was not averse to.
The last week of training was cancelled, and instead it was changed to family visits, especially for the case of Reina and Leol who have not been home for 4 years, while Fae sent Lili, Reina and Leol to their homes, Yunan stayed to help Balin with the forging of the armaments. Balin had planned for special items with some heavy enchantments for example magic resistance, strike resistance, mana and stamina regen, passive healing, speed and accuracy, and many more. Balin had planned each piece of the armaments to have different enchantments, and add a stacking effect when all the set was equipped at the same time.
The sets were full body armor, and weapons, that can be hidden inside an accessory, once one injects their mana inside the accessory it would equip itself on the user, making the time needed to put the armor on non existent. The set is also mana sensitive, so unless the user injects his mana in it, it would not activate. the armour can be programmed to self equip upon the user entering combat mode.
It was a very ambitious project that have never been done before, and a personal dream of Balin's, it took years to perfect the magical construct, and even longer to calculate the total amount of mana needed for a successful build. Unfortunately Balin could only make one set like that, so he chose Yunan to be its user, the lack of materials made Balin grit his teeth in frustration.
As the inheritor of such an armor Yunan asked for something that was equally obscene as a self equipping armor, he wanted one that can grow with him, he did not need to tell Balin more than that before he saw stars shining in his eyes. There was something in that brightness that told Yunan he had just handed Balin the missing piece of a very complicated puzzle. Balin started thinking and by the time Fae returned he was hanging on her dress begging her to perform a very strange spell.
It has been proven that Debauchery had a terrifying ability to communicate, plan and execute, with very little outward signs, well, that is the after effects of a miracle like spell that Fae cast long ago on Debauchery, the spell is called "mind link", the user can link the minds of those who accept the users judgement and trust them unconditionally, even a bit of doubt causes the spell to fail.
The "mind link" can literally link the minds of a group and connect them mentally, allowing one to think with the brains of a groupe, it also exposes all the ideas and memories in your mind to others, hence the absolute trust condition. That is what Balin was asking for, the ability to use the combines wisdom points that Debauchery has to calculate the viability of the growth type armament. The only after effect of t spell is that for the rest of their lives, the targets of the spell are mentally connected, even though not as strongly as when the spell is active, mostly exchange ideas and feelings. Balin went a step further and included all the treasury under the lonely mountain into his calculation. Items that are so precious there was no one good enough to use them. Especially since the death of the dragons.
It took a full night before Balin saw fit to break the spell, he then sat by a desk and started drawing until the morning, and without stop he asked Fae to take them to meet with the heart of the mountain. Without saying much, Balin let Mina look at the drawings he made and the same stars Balin had, sparkled in her eyes. After sending everyone one away, only Mina and Debauchery were in the office and Balin spoke more than a single sentence for the first time in two days.
"I'm gonna need the heart forge, the treasury, and every mana source under the mountain even those dragon flame canisters, i am even taking out the stuff we got from the 70th floors, but this will be the greatest feat of smithing since Hephaestus forged life into items, making this will make every dwarf in the rest of history curse me for it, but i am making it if you give me the chance, and maybe in the future, there will be enough materials to do it again, and another dwarf will have the chance to make something better, but for now i want to make it"
Mina only nodded and stood from behind her desk and walked to a wall, pressed a pressure tile on it and a door swung open, she walked in followed by Debauchery, the path was getting hotter with each step, until it reached an open cave glowing red thanks to red veins inlaid within the stone, and had a lake of plasma contained by a magical force field, yet the heat that escaped from it could be used for cooking. Near the lake was a huge furnace that dwarfed the one Balin used to forge the spirit heart and beside it were hills of materials that made the smith in Yunan go wide eyed and eager to touch.
However Yunan himself was focused on something else, he pulled Fae and whispered to her " I knew you guys were too strong for level 20, I even thought you were near level 40 since you could recognise level 60 enchantments, but I just heard Balin say you got materials from level 70, is that true?". Fae pushed her chest out and put on a smug smile and said " we failed only at level 79 last time we tried, worship me as your goddess and I will take you there on a tour".
Yunan just looked away towards Mina and Balin who had been making their own small hill of treasures taken from storage rings and the hills in the room. A monumental moment in history was about to be made and fussing about now strong his teachers were took a back seat.
