"Already throwing a demigod at me in the sixth round, huh? Well, isn't that even easier to beat than the previous ones?"
Seeing his opponent for the sixth round, Ye Qiyan couldn't help but smile.
A demigod.
The only time he had ever encountered such an existence was back in the Level 8 Station World of the 【Steam King】.
And even then, it was just a skull.
Used by the Steam King back then as a reinforcement item.
After falling into Ye Qiyan's hands, it was given to the Scoundrel, reinforcing its skeletal frame.
So much time had passed since then.
He had slaughtered so many gods.
Who should he send into battle?
Ye Qiyan thought for a moment.
Without a doubt, this trial hadn't reached the truly troublesome part yet.
That Nether King named Eris wouldn't simply let him off that easily.
But this also gave Ye Qiyan an opportunity for his allies to accumulate combat experience.
That's why, in these trials, he didn't take the field himself, instead letting them engage in duels or righteous gang-ups.
So, for this time...
"Decided."
Ye Qiyan punched his palm.
The Scoundrel and Lancelot.
These two had fought each other the most in the training grounds.
With the two of them plus the Wuzhong Legion, against a single demigod possessing divinity, and with Ye Qiyan's title granting special anti-divinity bonuses, they should be able to manage.
Even if something unexpected happened, it didn't matter.
Just a demigod after all.
Though the opponent certainly had hidden cards, Ye Qiyan wasn't the type to let his guard down in battle.
What truly excited him was whether Lady Eris, the Nether King, would later conjure up C-grade, or even higher-ranked, false gods.
With that thought, Ye Qiyan glanced at Emilie, who sat not far away, hooked on a gaming console and having been awake for twelve consecutive days. He gave a silent chuckle, shook his head, and turned to enter the Matrix space.
"Kinda feel like I've corrupted her, huh?"
He thought to himself, soon arriving at the Armament Hangar.
"Ah well, forget that. Let me take a look at this blueprint."
In the Future Construction Zone of the Armament Hangar.
Over the past few days, Ye Qiyan had repeatedly invested resources into it, even buying several relatively rare metals from the black market.
But the things produced by the Future Construction were not quite satisfactory.
Even the sublimated blueprints were far too inferior compared to Augustine's Flame Spear and the earliest flight backpack.
In fact, even the things built from Demon Metal were somewhat abstract.
For example...
【Demon Metal Skateboard】
【Requires: Demon Metal × 2】
【When equipped to a demon-type mech-soldier, allows ground movement using the skateboard】
Ye Qiyan, refusing to believe it, actually made one. He looked at the oversized skateboard, then watched Lancelot ride it at a speed even slower than its own flight speed.
He was left speechless.
So he went ahead and sublimated the thing.
The result was...
【Evil Flame Skateboard】
【Comes with demon flame effects, more visible in the dark, can self-destruct】
All he could say was that it was barely useful.
It had turned into a disposable demon flame high-speed missile.
Now it was stored in Augustine's Hangar Bay as backup equipment.
The rest of the blueprints, those not built from Demon Metal, were even more abstract than the last.
Like a mech-soldier metal broom, a super-large Demon Metal frying pan.
He didn't even have the desire to sublimate them. He dumped most of the non-Demon Metal blueprints onto the black market, barely recovering some costs.
Clearly, blueprint crafting in this system also required some luck.
But he hadn't given up on building.
After all, something good would eventually come along.
Like now.
"Oh? This blueprint is kind of interesting. No wait, this... was it built from that Divine Core I threw in earlier? Has it really been this long?"
【【Divine Artifact·Same Aspect】 Blueprint (Level 8)】
【Uses: 1/1】
【Requires: Demon Metal × 2, C-Grade Divine Core/Core Equipment × 1, GT Memory Metal × 5 sets, Metal × 10,000 kg】
"Interesting. It needs both special metals, plus a C-grade god's core or item. I hope it won't disappoint me when it's done."
He called for the Scoundrel.
After browsing through the Divine Core equipment it possessed, he finally picked out the conversion item that had barely ever been used, the 【Gnome Divine Core】.
【Gnome Top Technology·Control Console】 was taken directly down.
This item required Ye Qiyan to use it to fully control the Scoundrel.
But in the end, even without this item, even in a berserk state, the Scoundrel would still completely obey Ye Qiyan's commands.
So it was essentially useless.
Might as well just melt it down.
He didn't rush the crafting, because this blueprint could still undergo one sublimation.
【Spirit: 500 → 440】
【【Divine Artifact·Same Aspect】 Blueprint → 【Divine Equipment·Harmonious Call】 Blueprint (Level 9)】
【Uses: 1/1】
【Requires: ......, High-Frequency Analysis Optical Computer × 1】
An extra crafting requirement was added. Ye Qiyan checked the black market; it wasn't expensive, just 20 Train Coins.
Though he hadn't yet bought the final product, there was no need to hesitate over necessary expenses.
He retrieved the materials and summoned the Processing Station.
Placed the blueprint and materials.
Started crafting.
Clang-clang-clang—
The blueprint enveloped the materials, breaking them down and fusing them together, gradually coalescing into a brand-new item under the blueprint's effect.
"Come to think of it, I feel like the blueprints made from special materials can only be used once because the blueprint itself is also used as a material?"
Ye Qiyan stared thoughtfully at the scene on the Processing Station.
At this rate, the cost of this item would be equivalent to two C-grade Divine Cores.
"Right, speaking of which, I still have another blueprint to sublimate."
During the crafting process, Ye Qiyan retrieved another blueprint from his Storage Unit.
【Absolute Supreme？？——？？？(Blueprint)(Incomplete)】
This was the sublimated form of the 【GT-End Design Blueprint】 obtained from the 【Ring of the Hunt】.
And now that Ye Qiyan had sublimated himself once, he could indeed perform the second sublimation on this blueprint.
"Suddenly feeling like I'm about to get busy, hah."
He set it aside for the moment, because the item on the Processing Station, with a dazzling burst of divine radiance, had now completed its production.
A badge, inscribed with a wisp of azure light stream, only the size of an adult man's palm, flew before Ye Qiyan.
At the same time, the identification was completed.
【Divine Equipment·Harmonious Call (Level 9)】
【Restriction: Can only be equipped on mechanical lifeforms that have 3 or more Divine Core equipment pieces installed, and whose Divine Core item is a 【Shield】】
【Allows any Divine Core equipment to be superimposed, transferring all power into the same shield】
【Harmony Mode: When activated, increases the mech-soldier's base Stamina/Spirit based on the number of Divine Core shields owned, and all Divine Core shields will automatically perform ranged attacks and defense】
【Burst Mode·Mech-Soldier·Scoundrel Exclusive Mode·After equipping, Berserk Mode transforms into Burst Mode.】
【When Burst Mode is activated, all armor bursts, all shields burst, defense drops to zero, all tactics shift to focus fire, and wildness deepens, rage intensifies, and bloodlust increases!】
【Miatira's Special Note: This is practically a custom build!】
