[First update, fourth update today.]
For the sake of his own equipment, Agares had nurtured many powerful metallurgists. Of course, he knew what Salin was saying. That was why he was surprised. This twelve-dimensional metal was the best material he knew. Salin could control it so precisely, so there would not be any deviation during the refining process.
Salin threw his portion of the twelve-dimensional metal into the star ring and returned the other half to Agares.
Agares looked at Salin, puzzled. Salin said, "When I successfully refine it for you, we'll exchange. If I go back on my word, well, you'll lose less than half of the materials. This half of the materials will be enough for you to create an ideal weapon. "
Agares was speechless. Salin smiled and said, "I mean, I can't be sure if I'm dead or alive. If I die, I'll definitely go back on my word. The contract between us doesn't include others. My followers, sons, daughters, and wives will inherit my wealth, but they won't recognize the contract between us. "
Agares heaved a sigh of relief. If Salin went back on his word, he would not know what to do. The reason why he agreed to Salin's request was because he knew that he would need Salin's help to leave this God Kingdom.
As for Salin's sudden death, Agares did not consider it. Because in this world, although there were more and more level-10 powerhouses, there was probably no one who could kill Salin one-on-one. Agares was very clear about his own strength. If he did not ask for help, he would not succeed in assassinating Salin alone.
In the dragon's lair, Salin had obtained many benefits. His Elemental Magic Tower had indeed connected to Metatlin City through the interplanar transmission array.
Hearing that Salin was trapped, Jason was not anxious. He sent Salin a long letter, explaining in detail some of the rules of teleportation between dimensions.
Because there was no god presiding over this God Kingdom, the God of Light could not enter his body. So, relatively speaking, it was very easy for Salin and the others to leave. They only needed to set up a one-time transmission array in an environment with stable elements.
Of course, they could directly teleport back to Metatlin City from the Elemental Magic Tower. But in that case, the Elemental Magic Tower would be left in the Divine Kingdom and couldn't be taken away.
Regarding the twelve-dimensional metals and the Creation's Essence, Salin had also teleported some of them back. Jason asked Salin to forge equipment for Agares in the Divine Kingdom while he prepared the materials for the one-time teleportation circle in Metatlin City so that Salin could leave the Divine Kingdom.
Jason warned Salin not to kill too many creatures in the God Kingdom. Otherwise, it would attract the attention of the God of Light.
Of course, Salin did not act rashly. He hid in the Elemental Magic Tower in the dragon's lair. There were very few creatures in this place, and they weren't very aggressive. Because of the existence of the Dragons, not many creatures were willing to come close. The creatures that came close were all stupid and didn't have much attack power. To the Dragons, they didn't matter.
Salin had chosen this mountainous region because he saw that there were powerful beings here. As long as the powerful existences were dealt with, there would be no more harassment.
Salin also had the materials for the Interplanar Teleportation Matrix, but he needed to refine it first. Within the Divine Kingdom, Salin raised the Puppet Star and sent 500,000 puppets out to search.
These puppets were neutral equipment and didn't have souls, so they wouldn't be noticed by the God of Light.
As for things without souls, the believers in the God Kingdom wouldn't attack them, as long as these puppets didn't hurt them. Within a few hundred miles, Salin's puppets swept through everything.
As for Salin, he was in the Elemental Magic Tower. He didn't care about the harassment of some low-level creatures. He quietly refined equipment for Agares.
Salin had to deal with this equipment well. The twelve-dimensional metal was too precious. There were two reasons why Salin helped Agares.
First, it was said that this metal was only produced a little in every plane. The ones produced on the Myers Continent had obviously been discovered and used long ago. There was no hope of finding it there. Therefore, the twelve-dimensional metal in front of him might be Salin's only chance for a very long time.
Second, if Salin obtained the twelve-dimensional metal, he could make better use of it. He had a lot of alchemy formulas, especially those from Cain. Almost all of them were unknown to the current alchemists. In Salin's hands, the twelve-dimensional metal could be blended with some rarer metals through alchemy. Along with the Creation Serum in Neris's hands, he could obtain even more twelve-dimensional metal.
In reality, Salin had used this method to increase the number of materials in Agares' hands by more than ten times. That was why he generously returned half to Agares. After he finished refining the dagger for Agares, the remaining Twelve Dimensional Gold in his hands would be enough to forge equipment for Zola and Sue.
Of course, the most important thing was that the twelve-dimensional metal could make a real piece of space equipment for Shika. This was the reason why Salin was eager to obtain it.
Shika had always needed a totem pole, but suffered from a lack of materials. Even the bones of ancient dragons weren't strong enough for a totem pole. The twelve-dimensional metal, the Creation Serum, and the level-16 elemental stones in Salin's hands were enough to make equipment that could be used by the attendance card.
Refining the dagger for Agares was just to practice his skills. After all, it was Salin's first time making such high-level equipment. Even with the help of the Creation Serum, he might not succeed.
For this dagger, Salin used the mold casting method, which was rare.
The elemental nature of the twelve-dimensional metal was very delicate. Salin first used a piece of pure crystal to repeatedly carve the shape of the dagger, then melted the elemental stones and wrapped them around the crystal. At this time, the crystal melted and the elemental stones solidified, forming a precise mold.
Salin used the Six Elemental Heavy Water to mix, and the Creation Serum was only as thin as a strand of hair. Then, he cut off a bit of twelve-dimensional metal, added various precious metal materials, and threw all these things into the water flame.
Salin's water flame alchemy dissolved these materials evenly and mixed them together. The twelve-dimensional metal had the most powerful nomological properties, and the Creation Serum also mixed the other metal properties into the same properties as the twelve-dimensional metal.
In the terminology of mages, the Creation Serum had another name: the water of the natural order.
For gods, the Creation Serum was the most precious, but for mages, the water of the natural order was only a level-16 skill. Although it was not very possible for mages to make so much of the water of the natural order, mages could make it together. In a few hundred years, with enough mages, these things could also be made.
After the liquid was successfully mixed, Salin poured it into the mold and solidified into the shape of a dagger.
Water flame alchemy used low temperature. When the metal solidified, it would expand the level-16 elemental stones. Salin obtained the prototype of a dagger. The fact that a level-16 elemental stone could be expanded showed the strength of the metal.
Salin glanced at it. Agares had only used one-eighth of the twelve-dimensional metal, which was more economical than he had imagined. According to this ratio, Zola and Sue's weapons would not use this half of the twelve-dimensional metal.
The reason why Salin used the mold casting method was that the obtained materials could not be changed. If Agares wanted to reforge it, the attributes of the dagger would be lost, and the metal would degenerate.
But if he did not reforge it, in the core of the dagger, there was a frequency in the mageweath that Salin had smelted. If Agares used this dagger in the future, he would not be able to get close to him secretly.
This dagger was too deadly, so Salin had to keep a hand in reserve.
In six days, Agares obtained the equipment he had hoped for, a dagger that was less than a foot long.
It was a dark blue snake-shaped dagger, covered with striped mageweaths that looked like snake scales. At the tip of the dagger, on both sides, there were eye-shaped mageweaths. The grip was like the undulations of a snake's body when it naturally moved forward. Agares held the dagger in his hand and felt that it was extremely compatible with his hand.
For the first time, he felt that the weapon actively responded to him and became a part of his body.
From this point alone, Salin's understanding of combat skills had reached at least the level of a silver sword sage.
"Are you satisfied, Agares?" Salin asked somewhat proudly.
This dagger was his experimental product, but it was very successful. Agares nodded. Salin said, "In the grip of the dagger, there is a space I created for you. It is enough for an assassin like you to use. I have cut this space into twelve equal parts. With your mental strength, you can easily take out items from any part. "
Agares was overjoyed. As an assassin, the only problem he found troublesome was the use of spatial equipment. Although any profession could use spatial equipment after level-10, for an assassin, the size of the space that could be opened was a problem. Otherwise, when he and Salin were fighting over the dragon's lair, they would not have only targeted the most precious materials and given up on the relatively unimportant ones.
"Salin, this is yours," Agares said as he threw the remaining half of the twelve-dimensional metal to Salin.
Salin accepted it calmly and put the twelve-dimensional metal into the star ring. Then, he continued to say to Agares, "You can't quench the twelve-dimensional metal with poison, so I refined a mageweath for you on the blade of the dagger. You only need to store the poison in the hollow hole at the end. Then, you can use your skills or pure mental strength to activate it and send it to the blade of the dagger. "
"Thank you, Salin," Agares said, which was rare for him. Although the twelve-dimensional metal's damage was stronger than any kind of poison, this attribute also required skills to activate. Poison was different. The poison he could concoct was enough to kill a dragon. It could kill an enemy by scratching a layer of skin.
