283 Spirit Alchemy Part 2 (1/2)

”It's not enough to just have one of these magic arrays.” While speaking of alchemy, Judikaka had forgotten that he was working for Saleen. He was obviously really interested in alchemy. For a spirit, Judikaka was already too similar to a human.

”I have never been to the death dimension, but I heard that there are oceans in there too. And in these oceans, there are some strange creatures. It would be great if bone spirits can be made.”

”How do you know about bone spirits?” Judikaka was even more intrigued now. Even death mages were not familiar with bone spirits. What was more, Saleen was still an elemental mage.

Of course, Saleen had learned about them by accident. Saleen spent a huge amount of effort conceptualizing the idea of the boat. He needed to have a powerful warship since he had chosen such a location to build a city. The problem was, Saleen did not have that kind of money to build many warships, so he could only use another method, which was to build a boat which could do battle underwater.

Before other people did their research on the pan's turtle alchemical boat, there would be a protracted period of time where the ship could not be sunk. This was because most people would not try to attack an underwater target. For a long time, Alchemy City had already possessed ships which could travel underwater, but the toughness of those ships were related to their costs of production. Hence, even Alchemy City did not have a solution to this problem.

There was the warship at Devil's Horn which had been produced from the bones of magic sea beasts. However, this ship could not travel underwater, and instead seemed like it could fly in the air. Saleen was envious of that ship. Unfortunately, he was not so lucky as to be able to capture such a creature to produce a large warship.

With this alchemical boat, Saleen felt that he was very safe. As long as the magic array was shut down, the ship would be underwater, and beside the gods, no one else would be able to locate him.

”I also know that bloodstones aren't valuable in the death dimension,” Saleen replied with a smile.

”That's true, but what about it?”

”If the size of a bloodstone is big enough, then it can store a large amount of magic power, and that will be more useful than scrolls. A usual bloodstone is about the size of a pearl, but there are also ones which are bigger than a thumb. There are even some, which are produced by certain creatures, which are bigger than fists. Am I right?”

Judikaka nodded. In the death dimension, bloodstones were ubiquitous. Some of these red rocks were even larger than houses. But many were simply the size of rice grains, and because they were easily available, they were not valuable. But what did that have to do with bone spirits?

”I need two spirit pools which can be used to produce bone spirits. One of them will be used to produce bone spirits from the oceans in the death dimension. They have to be swift and be able to bring along bloodstones to release magic. The other spirit pool will be used to produce bone spirits which will move the boat underwater.”

Judikaka was slightly disappointed, and said, ”This idea is brilliant, but it won't be effective against real experts!”

”I have never thought of going against experts. I just need to be able to deal with people who are slightly stronger than myself.” Saleen thought to himself, In the ocean, unless a grand sorcerer is present, everyone will be doomed once the warship is sunk. I am going to deal with warships, not humans, so such an attack plan is already inadequate.

Those bone spirits who brought the bloodstones and swam at high speeds to attack the warships would achieve a better result than simply casting spells. Bone spirits had basic judgmental abilities, and they were able to execute their master's commands. The experts in the death dimension who created bone spirits were identical to the humans who created puppets. These things acted as laborers or cannon fodder.

If Saleen wanted to increase the offensive ability of the alchemical boat, he would have to be a sorcerer so as to advance the Ice Bomb spell to a high level. That way, he would already be able to alter the magic array on the alchemical boat.

”This boat is too small, and you are demanding two spirit pools. At best, a little over twenty bone spirits will be produced for you.” Judikaka was unsatisfied. Originally, Saleen had requested his help. But now, it seemed like he was working for Saleen, and he was being very meticulous about Saleen's design.

”I have some shards from the green spirit. They are able to seal the bone spirits so they can be stored.”

”Using green spirits to store bone spirits?” Judikaka felt that Saleen was too prodigal. Bone spirits were the lowest grade of creatures, and they were not even considered to be proper spirits. Furthermore, the green spirit was extremely rare in the death dimension.

In total, Saleen had two green spirit cores. One of them had gone to Sika while the other had been used to seal the winged skeleton. There were many shards from the green spirit, so Saleen planned to fuse half of them into the alchemical boat. By doing so, at least one hundred bone spirits could be sealed.

It was precisely because of the low-grade of the bone spirits that Saleen wanted them. High-grade death creatures needed to be controlled by death mages. Furthermore, Saleen's green spirit shards would not be able to seal so many high-grade spirits.

Over one hundred odd bone spirits carrying the bloodstones to conduct a kamikaze attack would likely be adequate for one battle. A normal warship would not even be able to carry one hundred magic stone artillery bombs.

Judikaka was speechless. Even though Saleen's plan was flawed, it was compensated by materials. However, if Judikaka had designed the plan, the green spirit would definitely have been put to better use. A sly glow flashed from the soul flames in Judikaka's orbitals. Judikaka decided that he was going to do something behind Saleen's back which would definitely surprise Saleen.

Saleen had unconsciously made his matter into Judikaka's matter, and he had not even requested it. At this moment, Judikaka had not sensed it yet either.

”Do you have any other requests?”
