“Hell no!” Sika refused Saleen’s request firmly, but quickly felt herself being too hard after she spoke. “Saleen, I’m just concerned that you won’t have any strength left for crafting equipnt. We’re already half a month behind schedule.”
“Won’t have any strength left? That’s ridiculous! I’m a level nine sorcerer. Even if I fight a swordmaster up close and personal, there’s no certainty that I’ll lose!”
Sika’s eyes were wide open. “Well how about we have a match in who can take down the house faster then? You take the left and I take the right.”
Saleen was getting rather impatient. “What does this have to do with taking the house down? The last ti we did it, oh yeah, that last ti. Who was the one ended up asking for a break, eh? Was I the one getting exhausted?”
Sika could not help but chuckle. “Alright, Saleen, let’s get the equipnt finished. We’ll do it your way after that. And man, you actually dare bring up that last ti. You insisted on testing that mutated water type fossilization or whatever, and you almost got frozen instead.”
Saleen grinned and hugged Sika. “Alright, I was just ssing with you. Well then, how do we go about this?”
The stone house had a Mute Enchantnt set up. Nailisi ca to the front door and took her golden dragon form, then stayed coiled up there, feeling rather frustrated. Master is going at it with Sika again, and they kick out. But Sika... well, it’s best to not get on her bad side.
If her master dared do so with other won, she would swallow them alive.
Saleen and Sika stayed in the stone house for six days. A whole week passed before the Mute Enchantnt was dispelled. Nailisi would never train on her own. She simply stayed in her golden dragon form coiled up before the door, spending all six days sleeping.
When she woke up, she had forgotten what form she had taken. She swiped her tail and took out half of the walls of the huge stone house.
All the others watched the scene, dumbfounded. They were all looking at the stone house; even Eleanor had gotten curious as to what happened. She was wondering what Saleen and Sika were doing in there, and if the scene would turn out to be awkward.
Thick water elent burst from the rubble. The mist covered half of the valley in an instant. Saleen’s mist would not cloud his followers’ sight. Everyone other than Don was able to see what was at the center of the stone house. Thick starlight gathered at an retro-looking piece of equipnt.
The triangular equipnt was no longer a construct of bone. It was covered in lightning magic patterns and between them, constellation power pulsed, as if it was a breathing living being.
The equipnt hovered in the air and both Saleen and Sika circled around it. Complex golden runes shot from Saleen’s eyes, which were etched on the piece of equipnt. Green energy shot out from Sika’s eyes. Mystical shapes were hidden within the energy.
Nailisi turned around in a hurry and took her devil form, looking at Sika’s new equipnt, which made her feel threatened. It was a feeling she had when her life was in danger.
The edge of the triangular thing was smooth. Powerful life force seed to be imbued within, attempting to escape and devour soone.
However, Saleen and Sika simply continued to add power to the shell of the equipnt. The thing hidden within gradually stopped rampaging. The pulse of constellation power llowed out as well.
Sika was only able to let her guard down then. The trouble of her magic beast soul growing too quickly had been settled. If it had not been for Saleen’s help, it would have taken an untold number of years before the equipnt was finished.
Saleen put his hands down. “Let’s na it.”
That triangle in the air shuddered for a bit, then circled around Sika in glee. A lodic sound was heard from the hollowed part of the triangle.
Saleen sensed everyone’s sight around him. “What are you looking at? Co get your gear!”
Nailisi was the first one to go. Her body shrunk in midair, returning to her imp form. Saleen seed to understand sothing when he saw that. Nailisi would have probably been able to advance a long ti ago if it had not been for her accommodating to his level.
He finally understood why there had been tis where his soul bond with her felt as if it had disappeared.
“Nothing for you here,” Saleen said exasperatedly to Nailisi. He had given her the semi godly item that served as her shield, which was taken from the great head inquisitor. He was in no mood nor had any energy left to craft her more.
The equipnt that Nailisi had on her person was probably second only to that of Saleen. The Grey mory, the Sword of Rules, and the shield were made of materials above level 13. Saleen had yet to see a weapon as sharp or pointy as the Grey mory.
“Hehe... I know, master. I was just checking the stuff out for them,” Nailisi looked on as she waited for Saleen to take out the new equipnt.
“Sul, co here.” Saleen waved and took out a regular Qin eight-sided sword and handed it to Sul. The sword was a segnt shorter than conventional Qin eight-sided swords, which fit Sul’s size perfectly.
Sul took the sword in his hand and imdiately felt it to be different than any weapon he had wielded before. The sword was light, only half as heavy as the short sword that he was using.
The sword was also capable of holding ten tis more sword aura than any piece of equipnt he had used before. The greater the amount of energy an equipnt was capable of carrying, the longer a warrior would be able to use it. The sword would last him at least until level 12.
Saleen then took out a garnt and handed it to Sul. “Your way of the sword is quick and sharp, making heavy armor ill-suited for you. This is a piece of starline cloth armor made specifically for you. You can rest easy with the defense this thing affords you. You won’t lose fighting capacity when you face a holy master or whatever next ti.”
“Thank you, my liege.” Sul took the armor, wanting to change into it right away, but there were too many won around him at the mont, and it would be rude for him to do so.
“Jola.”
“I’m here. I have Tears, my liege.”
“A pair of braces for you. They should give you so defense against prophecy spell-type divine spells.” Saleen handed the braces to Jola. Jola was an incredibly versatile warrior, capable of wearing any type of armor.
He was able to maintain combat capacity even if he wore heavy armor, but Saleen had not planned to craft armor for him.
Jola took the braces without saying anything. He put them on his forearms.
Jola was unable to do anything against prophecy spells. He had so defense against level nine ones, but the one that hit him aged him by decades.
The level 11 one that he had to deal with before almost cost him his fighting capacity after he was even caught in the aftershock.
“Eleanor, this is for you.”
Saleen took out a quiver and handed it to Eleanor. The arrows within were all crafted specifically for her.
Eleanor took the quiver and drew one arrow out. The lightning magic patterns on it humd as soon as she clipped it between her fingers.
“Nice stuff, but just too precious!” Eleanor had spent the week learning to morize. She had developed a rough understanding of lightning rules, but she was still unable to master it. However, she was able to tell how effective the arrow would be in dispelling magic.
She was still unable to use lightning skills, but she was able to shoot an arrow with offensive lightning effects.
It was akin to a magic scroll used by mages, adapted to archers.
Every arrow shot equaled to learning the skill of lightning attacks once, which was the sa as a mage unleashing a scroll. Saleen spent most of his focus and energy on the lightning arrows. His foundation in lightning skills was shakyl.
“Nicholas...”
“My liege?” Nicholas had not expected Saleen to have sothing for him. Saleen should not have known much about his fallen holy arts after all.
“I have sothing for you.” Saleen took out a huge scroll. The scroll was nearly a ter long. Nicholas struggled to hold it, looking rather awkward.
“I can’t do much with divine spell scrolls, so I made a blank one instead. You can add skills to it yourself later.”
Nicholas extended his senses to probe the scroll and was overjoyed. While the scroll looked rather awkward in his hands, the material was like no other.
Saleen used thods not known to Nicholas to fill the blank scroll with ample power of faith, which was also perfectly balanced with the power of elents in it.
It was capable of allowing divine spells to be continuous added and stacked until the scroll was unable to take anymore. The blank could be stored repeatedly with over ten divine spells, which could be cast all at once.
While it was a one-ti-use equipnt and troubleso to use, Saleen had provided him with ideas to research further. His divine spells were able to be stored within the Scepter of the Fallen, which could be cast all at once. What it cost him was ntal powers.
Saleen had a piece of equipnt capable of enhancing ntal powers. While Saleen would definitely not give Nicholas sothing like that, Nicholas could make a copy. Saleen’s thods would enable Nicholas to enhance his ntal powers by two tis.
“Isabella.” Saleen smiled warmly.
“My liege.”
Saleen took out a sharp and pointy tal spear and handed it to Isabella. “You’re equally exceptional in both martial arts and magic. The spear will serve as a magic staff, but also an equipnt capable of storing sword aura. This is a set of starline armor. Take it.”
Isabella took the equipnt Saleen crafted for her and nodded her thanks. While the things that Saleen had given her seed to be the most common, they were the most suitable for her use.
Furthermore, she found that the level of the magic nucleus embedded within the short spear was ridiculously high. It would last her for a very long ti, sparing her the need to switch weapons later.
“Don...”
Don was stunned. Saleen had him wait, so he did not expect to be getting sothing so soon.
“This is your personal Heaven Knight armor. I’ve used special materials to craft it. Defense might be lacking sowhat, but... you’ll know when you wear it. Here are ten sets of Heaven Knight armor for demons, which all differ sowhat from the schematics you gave .”
Don took the Heaven Knight armor. One set was incredibly heavy, weighing over 55 pounds. Common mages would probably have a hard ti carrying sothing like that, yet Saleen handed it to him with one arm.
The set was crafted by Saleen using fragnts of the fossilized gods, which was capable of self-repair. Every single set was capable of providing power to another set, which was the basic principle of Heaven Knight armor.
Saleen recalled the Tribunal ca up to grab materials in a frenzy, so he had the epiphany to try the fragnts out. The fragnts proved to be the ideal material for crafting Heaven Knight armor. There was no need to add anything else to it.
While it ca at the cost of lower defense, when Don led armies consisting of thousands, such equipnt would enable a large number of golden grand swordmasters to appear among the ranks of his army.
It would make them sothing like the golden-armored knights riding alongside the great head inquisitor.
Saleen drew a teleportation portal specifically linked to Daliang City after knowing that, writing to Lex to have her gather as many of the fragnts as possible.
Even if she was unable to do so, she would screw up the Tribunal operations as best she could.
