Chapter 1276: Bug Angel (Part 1)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

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.

The armor split, and the imp within shrieked in terror, but its cry worked through the armor instead.

The noise made everyone’s eardrums hurt, and everyone within earshot felt rather dizzy. Any warrior below level nine would probably be dazed for half a second.

Jola’s hand was several frames slower, enough time for the imp to twist around and evade the killing blow. The magic nucleus embedded in the Bug Angel Armor’s internal space melted a bit, patching up the crack in the armor quickly.

Saleen was astounded. While such methods of repair were wasteful, it made the patch incredibly resilient, as if a layer of magic nucleus was coated on metal. Furthermore, it was done frighteningly quickly.

It was both a huge waste and a huge finding.

Jola landed over 100 slashes, which made the Bug Angel Armor even more resilient. That was why Jola refused to kill the imp. On a battlefield, the Bug Angel Armor would not be able to resist attacks from a level ten true might.

“Contact the Winged Skull and tell them to devote their time to hunting. I want more magic nuclei!” Saleen ordered. He found that the Bug Angel Armor had depleted over 100 magic nuclei after being attacked by Jola. The entire set of armor glittered, crystallized all over.

There was no way Jola would be able to cleave the armor open with a single strike anymore.

The more frequently the armor was attacked, the more resilient it became. It was no wonder that Fycro said that Saleen had a lot to gain. Only Bug Angel Armor crafted from fossilized god fragments would have such properties.

If they were made with metal, their recovery rate would be faster and cost less, but the armor would et be weaker.

The Winged Skull was puzzled about the reasoning behind such an order, but they immediately mobilized all ships and began to hunt magic beasts in the Oceanic Ice Block.

The magic beasts there had increased to terrifying numbers, but the Winged Skull was equipped with the Reaper Scythe and hunting magic beasts became easier than cutting grass. The warships were simply following behind to pick up the dead bodies.

There was a noticeable shortage of metals in the alchemy factories. Saleen tested it and found the shell of red krill to be a decent substitute, albeit a rather expensive one.

It was fortunate there were so many red krill. Saleen decided to exclusively use their shells to craft Fycro’s Bug Angel Armor.

There were many shells left, which were used to create larger versions of the armor. The armor could fit several imps and could be donned by supreme demons.

The best version, after undergoing many tests, was still the standard Bug Angel Armor.

However, Saleen had no concerns about waste. He crafted 200 large versions specifically for Nailisi, letting her select supreme demons to wear it. To the supreme demons, the Devil Flying Armor was not that practical, but the Bug Angel Armor hardly had weaknesses.

Jola found it difficult to cut down the supreme demons wearing such armor, even if they were only level eight or nine.

All grand swordmasters at Saleen’s side were assigned from the army, and were ordered to give their all to attack the special armor. In September, Saleen would finish the 100,000 suits for his own use when he was done crafting 500,000 for Fycro.

The other 200 sets were suits of Crystal Bug Angel Armor crafted from crystals of very high purity.

Saleen imbued dark space magic patterns on all of the suits. While their physical defense was only marginally strengthened, their defense against energy attacks reached baffling levels.

The defensive capacities were built upon huge fuel cost. Every single set of Crystal Bug Angel Armor needed to be fit with 12 magic nuclei above level ten. Only then would they be able to resist magic attacks above level 10.

Nailisi patiently moved Saleen’s subjects using the 12 Notes of First Purgatory. Saleen did not prioritize the transportation of warriors and transported farmers, smiths, some mages, and apprentices first.

Saleen left anyone with any measure of fighting capacity behind in Metatrin City.

Fycro came to Metatrin City personally, taking all 500,000 suits of Bug Angel Armor with him. Saleen only brought 20,000 sets with him and went to look for Grand Duke Iron Blood, when he found that there were a few problems with his armor.

He had no time to look for trouble with Alchemy City, but Imposa would definitely have time. Imposa controlled massive numbers of Iron Blood warriors, and they were all capable of piloting the Bug Angel Armors.

Saleen only brought Nailisi with him to Grand Duke Iron Blood’s Palace At Sea.

Grand Duke Iron Blood had made the Palace At Sea into a fortress. The magic cannons that he bought from Saleen sealed the port without leaving any exploitable angles. Every spot that could be landed on had a huge number of magic cannons installed nearby.

The Grand Duke did not seem to want to attack anything, but wanted to make it a point in his line of defense!

“Saleen, I’m happy that you found time to see me!” The Grand Duke received Saleen with a loud laugh. There were already four level ten sorcerers behind him. The Grand Duke’s forces had grown since they last met.
