Chapter 1166: Chapter 397: Iron-Spine Undead Chest Armor (2)
This is also why Wizards of the Bixiu Mechanization School cannot overrun their enemies with countless battle puppets.
Because the more puppets there are, the greater the consumption of spiritual power. Instead of that, it is better to use spiritual power to control a more powerful puppet.
When the massive four-meter-tall Hellfire Puppet stood up, a surge of energy waves emanated from its body.
“Boom, boom, boom!”
Due to the intermediate control core installed inside the Demon Statue, Lord Rein only needed to issue simple commands, such as attack, and the Hellfire Demon Statue would automatically lock onto a target and perform a combination attack.
“Attack the iron mannequin in front.” Lord Rein commanded.
At this moment, the Hellfire Demon Statue immediately charged towards the target, seemingly having judged that it could break the target with a single punch.
“Stop! Cast a witchcraft attack!” What Lord Rein most wanted to see was naturally the witchcraft strike capability of the Hellfire Demon Statue.
The thick chest armor on both sides of the Demon Statue’s chest suddenly popped open, revealing two dark cannon barrels. Immediately, intense red and black witchcraft lights began to flicker inside the barrels.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
Approximately two seconds per shot, if combined, it was one fireball or shadow arrow per second, trailing brilliant tail flames as they bombarded the iron mannequin.
As the smoke cleared, the iron mannequin had long become a lump of red-hot, steaming iron slag.
“Hiss~ Such power.” Audrey and Alicia gasped in awe as they watched.
If this were to hit them, they wouldn’t be able to withstand it for three seconds before ending up like the target.
“Defense.”
Having witnessed the witchcraft attack of the Hellfire Demon Statue, Lord Rein issued a defense command.
A red glow flashed across the lines on the Demon Statue’s surface, and a shield-like red energy shield appeared, swirling around its body.
“This is the Flame Shield, a First Level defense-oriented witchcraft.” Mogaro, standing by, introduced.
“By the way, Rein, you can try the effect of overclocking.” Mogaro said with a mysterious smile.
“Alright, mentor.”
“Overclock attack!” As Lord Rein issued the command.
The low rumbling inside the Hellfire Demon Statue suddenly accelerated. It was like the engine of an Otto motor suddenly shifting into a high gear, turning into a high-displacement naturally aspirated Ferrari!
“Swish, swish, swish!”
This time, the two dark barrels in the Demon Statue’s chest began to attack rapidly, with fireballs and shadow arrows firing at half-second intervals, crisscrossing toward the target like a Gatling gun from a previous life.
Audrey and Alicia exchanged glances, both utterly shocked by the spectacle.
“Hiss~ If I ever get a Demon Statue like this, I wouldn’t need to find a partner!” Alicia exclaimed enviously, her eyes wide.
“Alicia, maybe you could say something to Lord Rein, and he might gift you one. Even if he doesn’t give you a full construct, a Hellfire Crystal Stone would suffice.” Audrey teased as she heard Alicia murmur to herself.
“Alright, Audrey, you’re laughing at me. Why don’t you ask Lord Rein yourself!” Alicia retorted, playfully tugging and tussling with Audrey.
….
“Mentor, I’m very satisfied. Thank you for your hard work.” Lord Rein bowed slightly, smiling.
Even though he had some other ideas, they would require a considerable amount of time to redesign, modify, and debug.
These could wait until after he returned from the mission.
Additionally, there was a plan for using higher-level Abyss Fire Crystal Stones, which Lord Rein naturally considered. However, the unfortunate reality was that even mentor Mogaro was merely at the peak of a First Level Wizard.
Creating a higher-grade Demon Statue with more advanced engravings was beyond his current capabilities.
It was said that mentor Mogaro humbled himself to request assistance from several Second Level Liquidization Wizards and Deputy Sect Leader Bradley, a Third Level Crystallization Wizard, to get the job done.
“By the way, the magic Silver Alloy you provided was used to reinforce critical parts, offering considerable defense against witchcraft attacks.”
“Overall, the Hellfire Demon Statue might struggle against Legendary Level opponents but is quite effective at handling lesser foes, even if they appear in numbers.”
Mentor Mogaro concluded.
“There’s also one more thing. I’ve set up a self-destruct mechanism in the Hellfire Crystal Stone Furnace. In case of special circumstances, the three mini furnaces will simultaneously detonate with unmatched power!”
“I think this could be your trump card when necessary. What do you think?”
“Of course, mentor, you’ve thought of everything!” At this moment, Lord Rein felt he had indeed chosen rightly by selecting Mogaro as his mentor.
Although Mogaro’s power wasn’t formidable, his commitment to his apprentice was beyond reproach.
“Mentor, I’ll take this Hellfire Demon Statue with me now, as I have a task coming up. It’s the perfect opportunity to conduct a field test.” Lord Rein proposed as he took his leave.
“Alright, after conducting the tests, let me know quickly if there’s anything that needs improvement.” Mogaro smiled in response.
….
Meanwhile.
In a valley at the southeastern corner of the Imperial Suburb of Tamriel.
This area was adjacent to a small town called Luward, considered the most peripheral zone of the Imperial City.
In a beautiful manor villa, seven or eight men wearing robes of various colors were bustling around an elderly man dressed in a Wizard Robe.
It seemed this place must be a covert base of some organization.
At that moment, a middle-aged man in a gray robe, upon receiving the elder’s consent, briskly walked along the winding cobblestone path on the west side of the manor. After about a hundred meters, an exceptionally hidden cave appeared before him.
