1276 Bug Angel Part 1 (1/2)

Saleen knew what was going on in Nailisi's mind, but he was unable to change anything. Nailisi was an imp, and Myers Mainland was not her home.

While demons had long lives, they were indifferent about life and death. Demons would not be sad after seeing hundreds or even thousands of their own die right before them. Unless such deaths involved their spouses, demons were not known for shedding tears.

Weird creatures!

Saleen thought that maybe Nailisi had the same thoughts about humans.

None of them spoke during the journey, and Saleen took the few at his side straight to Metatrin City. He did not even bother taking a detour to Lonestar City. Fycro's news was just too shocking.

Saleen did not assemble the nobles after getting home either, going straight to meet his teacher to tell his teacher about what Fycro said.

Jason remained unperturbed. ”Begin transferring the common folk immediately. Leave Nailisi and use her 12 Notes of First Purgatory to transport people to the interdimensional space. Don't ever use the purgatory soul in the interdimensional space. Search your memory for anything useful. You'll be able to create a world there.”

”What about the Bug Angel Armor?”

”Get to it immediately. Don't use metal. Make them with fossilized god fragments. Pick the right imps for the purpose from here on out. Their size makes them most suited for piloting such armor.”

Saleen's mind calmed. He had more to worry about than the abomination plane, as it was just the beginning. Fycro also meant that the powers of Myers Mainland would rise after December.

By then, there was no way to keep the portals sealed, and all kinds of peculiar creatures would flood Myers Mainland.

It had not been long since the last time Myers Mainland saw a spike in power, so there would not be many powerful ones on the verge of advancing. But it would be a different story later on.

The entire Metatrin City got busy right away. The crafting of Devil Flying Armors was shelved for the time being. The crafting process roles were assigned as soon as the schematics of the Bug Angel Armors arrived at the Alchemy Factories.

He needed to provide Fycro with 500,000 sets. Saleen was in no hurry to craft them for his own troops, and the selection of imps would take months.

Lex had to make her way to Metatrin City. She had to go to the northern side of Metatrin to take control of the Metal Titan to speed up the refining of metals. Huge number of demons were summoned, and the northern veins were being strip-mined. The only factor that mattered was speed.

The mining caused the eventual production to be reduced by about 30 percent, but Saleen did not care. If they did not dig then, they would have no chance in the future.

Saleen threw himself into the production of the Bug Angel Armor. The armor was peculiar and was nothing like equipment that he had seen before. Even humans would become bug-like when the armor was donned, developing omni-directional sight and devastating offense capacity.

Devil Flying Armor was only suitable for demons, but the Bug Angel Armor was able fit any kind of living creature. The insides consisted of machinery formed by round metal beads. When liquid was infused, an isolated pocket would form.

People could sleep inside, and it would feel more comfortable than a mother's womb. It was piloted through senses and mental powers.

Imps were more suited to such armor. Without training, humans' mental powers were considerably inferior to demons. Saleen had no time to train humans, so imps were the only way to go.

Saleen did not forget to upgrade his own lightning puppets. He changed the forms of all the puppets. All of their heads were installed with complex eyes. Saleen's control over the puppets would be far easier.

Lightning Constellation finally had a very important use. The puppets lost their blind spots when fighting.

The abyssal soul was cut in half and sent to the Chaotic Swamp. Saleen accelerated the performance of alchemy. Over 2,000 mages were sent from Principality of Bitterwater and put to work in the Alchemy Factories.

The factories gained over 2,000 pairs of extra hands specifically meant for crafting the Bug Angel Armor for the Kingdom of Metatrin.

The remaining 10,000 were tasked with crafting Fycro's military equipment.

Saleen had to hand over 500,000 suits of Bug Angel Armor to Fycro by September. He also made 100,000 suits for himself. All fossilized god fragments were reserved, and the Heaven Knight Armor was put aside altogether.

The Temple Knights of Nature Faith used Devil Flying Armor and Devil Possession Armor for the time being.

The fossilized god fragments were mystical. Saleen added properties of Heaven Knight Armor to the Bug Angel Armor that he crafted for his army. With that, all 100,000 suits of armor would possess powerful defense when used in Saleen's territory.

It went without saying that Saleen had to test the armor's properties. After the first set of Bug Angel Armor was crafted, Nailisi had an imp get into it and fight Jola.

The imp was only about 1.5 meters tall. After getting into the pocket, the spikes behind the Bug Angel Armor closed one by one, encasing the imp completely. The 12-legged bug angel came alive and pounced on Jola ferociously.

Jola did not use powerful weapons and instead used standard equipment of temple guards. The Qin greatsword, armed with piercing sword aura, was brought down onto the Bug Angel Armor.
