The library was another huge building, but unlike the towering energy factory, it spread over a larger area. It was just one floor inside, filled with things that looked like big coffins. Each coffin had a tal wire connected to a sealed 'server' in the center.
"Find a reception pod about your height and lie down in it," Windfla 222 said to Adam outside the library. "I'll wait for you here."
Curious, Adam lay down in an eight-ter-long pod.
External connectors touched his body and gently entered after getting his permission, linking with the Vital Generator and interacting with the Original Flas.
So information was uploaded through the pod, while the Original Flas were downloading.
Adam didn't understand the principle, but the technology was advanced and magical. It saved a lot of learning ti, skipping the steps of learning and morizing, and directly achieving mastery.
The basic knowledge included several formulas for lting alloys, including the most common ones like nickel-cadmium, bronze, tungsten-cobalt, titanium alloy, iron-carbon alloy, and so special alloys with energetic properties like fla, earth, storm, and more.
Here, the importance of the Original Flas was further highlighted. When lting attributed tals, the Fla acted as a converter and enchanting device.
All attribute tals had to be forged through the Fla, aning they were not mass-produced in factories but individually crafted by each Titan.
There was also basic information on the weapon system, providing energy circuits for externalizing the energy of the flas. This part was not very useful for Adam, as the magic arrays in the world of mages were much more advanced.
There were also introductory thods for modifying the Vital Generator. The Titans divided it into offensive, defensive, energy, and support types. Once chosen, one could purposefully modify the Vital Generator and mount weapon systems, which was very convenient.
The basic knowledge introduced the ranking system for Titans. Adam was currently at the Novice level, followed by the Knight level, Commander level, and Warlord level. That was corresponding to the common nurical grading system in the mage world.
Also, all the Royals in this world were at the transcendent level.
Through various classifications and the racial ability to freely transform, each Titan was an excellent warrior, capable of playing any role in wars.
After receiving the basic knowledge, Adam walked out of the library. Windfla 222 said, "That's the benefit for newcors. From now on, all services will need to be paid for with Battle Honors. But don't worry, it's easy to earn Battle Honors. Just go to the battlefield and kill tal Eaters."
"A level one tal Eater is worth one battle honor, a level two is five points, level three is ten points, and level four is twenty points."
Windfla 222 didn't ntion the transcendent tal Eaters, probably because he had never seen one. It made sense, as he was only at the commander level. Facing a transcendent tal Eater head-on would likely result in being devoured instantly.
The military honor system usually appeared in wars that can't be ended quickly. This system discarded the monetary and financial system, and access to advanced resources and knowledge was entirely determined by one's contribution in the war.
This characteristic of a warring race also indicates the imnse pressure the tal Eaters impose, so much so that the Titans encourage their people to fight in this manner.
"Newcors who haven't completed the first advancent of their Vital Generator and the Original Flas generally don't need to go to the battlefield. But there's a maximum period of five years for the newcor phase. Within five years, you must beco a Knight, or you'll be stripped of your warrior status and sent to work in places like the energy factory or the tallurgy factory."
As Windfla 222 led Adam towards the 'Titan Beauty Salon,' he continued, "What about the Intelligent? Do they also need to go to the battlefield?"
"Of course, the Intelligent are the most powerful warriors. Even if you're very smart, you need to reach the warlord level to officially beco an Intelligent. Before that, you must go to the battlefield. Otherwise, how can you develop weapons against the tal Eaters if you don't even know what they are?"
The Titan Beauty Salon was bustling with people coming and going. The Titans who survived the recent big battle needed relaxation and maintenance.
After greeting the other tribe mbers with a cheerful smile, Windfla 222 led Adam to a separate compartnt inside the vast building: "Newcors don't actually need maintenance, but considering you might be an Intelligent, this one's on ."
With that, his fla fluctuated a few tis, and the ground split open, raising two large machines that swallowed both Adam and him.
The maintenance for tal creatures included polishing, grinding, cleaning, lubricating, fueling, and more.
For Titans, this also involved the care of the Vital Generator. These tasks were entirely perford by the two large machines, while Adam and Windfla 222 simply lay there quietly, letting countless tiny chanical arms massage their entire bodies.
During the internal maintenance, the machines took the energy blocks Adam had received, inserting them into the Vital Generator at specific frequencies and continuously rubbing the tal walls.
The Original Flas burned in waves, and the overflowing energy was channeled through all energy circuits, putting the whole body in a semi-excited state.
After half an hour, the maintenance was over. Adam saw that there was not a single flaw on Windfla 222's body. He shone brilliantly under the light.
Adam's own silver body also sparkled with a crystal-clear sheen, looking very valuable.
Stepping out of the beauty salon, Windfla 222 handed Adam a small external plugin. "This is a Fla Vibration Receiver. When you get back, plug it into your Vital Generator. It's already set to my frequency, so you can contact through it if you need anything. I'm usually in Ironburg unless I'm out on a mission."
After saying that, he waved and left on his own.
Adam pocketed the plugin and headed to the rest area.
The Titans didn't have residences as such; their bodies were too large. Unlike other creatures, they didn't have feelings of fatigue, sleep, or mating. When they had spare ti, they usually just found an open area to sit quietly with their flas contained within their Vital Generator.
The spot Adam chose already had so Titans present, who kindly made space for the newcor.
A Fla Vibration Receiver was a kind of translation and diffusion device. It can convert fla vibrations into radio waves that Titans could receive.
After installation, Adam felt the surrounding sparks beco clearer, but since there was no exchange of vibrations, conversation was not yet possible.
"Master, have you decided what to do?" the devil whispered quietly.
This was the question Adam was contemplating. The Titans, unlike the dragon race or the radiation species, might be different from other races the Explorers had encountered.
Adam felt this race could be allied with."
