[Third update, sigh …]
Sephiroth felt humiliated. However, his army was all in Holy Rock City. There were only 3,000 elite soldiers in his territory, of which 1,000 were cavalry and 2,000 were infantrymen. This was too shabby for a prince.
There were 16 generals following him. These 16 generals were not only outstanding in combat, but they were also good at large-scale battles. These generals all had the ability to command tens of thousands of troops. Two of them were even more talented than him. It was just that their individual combat ability was not as good.
So many people followed him, but he could not resist the Cloud Fleet. He even had a port, but he did not dare to go out to sea.
Salin asked for two fleets to help him train the navy. This made Sephiroth's blood surge, and his face turned red.
"Your Highness, Sephiroth, you haven't seen my soldiers yet, right? If you need, I can provide armor for you. The Iron Blood Grand Duke also has this armor. "
Salin waved his hand, and an Insect Angel soldier flew in the sky. This soldier landed and crawled on the ground. The compound eyes on his head observed Sephiroth. The wings on his back trembled slightly, and small wind blades appeared and disappeared between the wings.
This was the skill that Salin asked him to perform. The long legs of the Insect Angel soldier stabbed into the stone ground, making creaking sounds that annoyed people.
"This is a level-6 demon. After wearing the armor and embedding enough magic cores, its combat ability is higher than a level-8 Warrior, but lower than a level-9 Gold Sword Saint," Salin introduced.
The Insect Angel Armor had been very suitable before Salin had replicated the Tainted Blood Armor, but now Salin didn't like it. However, there were still a lot of molds in Metatlin City. If they were destroyed, it would be a huge loss. So, Salin would introduce this armor to his allies when he had the chance.
Anyway, the cost of producing this armor on a large scale was not high. According to its effects, no matter how expensive it was, it would be cheap and good.
"How much for a set?" Sephiroth was immediately tempted. This armor for soldiers could increase their combat ability by so much. It was worth it even if they had to burn magic cores. Salin took it out. Obviously, he could afford it.
"I've always bartered, but this time, I'll charge you 5,000 gold coins for a set. Magic cores are extra."
Sephiroth took a deep breath. Five thousand gold coins. If he equipped a thousand people, it would be five million gold coins. He was not greedy, and he only had a few tens of millions of gold coins on him. Taking out five million gold coins was nothing, but he still had the fleet and the consumption of magic cores.
In terms of fleets, he had never heard of any battleship costing less than 100,000 gold coins.
A fleet of at least twelve ships. Salin estimated that it would cost him a few million gold coins, and then there was the consumption. After a few years of training for the fleet, it was equivalent to buying another battleship.
Sephiroth had never commanded a Marine before, but it didn't mean that he didn't understand the situation.
Seeing Sephiroth's dilemma, Salin tried to persuade him, "Your Highness, I'll only charge you the cost of the armor. I won't earn a single silver coin from you. You might even lose money. I don't have enough troops in my country. I have equipment, but I can't use it. If I were to sell this armor outside, people would buy it for 50,000 gold coins, right? Also, although this armor consumes Monster Cores, it can automatically repair itself … "
"Automatic recovery!"
"If the damage isn't too great, it would be more than half the cost to repair the consumed magic cores automatically than to find a magician to repair them."
"I want a thousand sets."
Salin smiled. Sephiroth was finally settled by him this time. He would provide military equipment to him, and there would be many more services in the future. He was not afraid that he would run away. The insect angel armor and the battleship would be a pile of scrap metal without his magician.
Salin was a little embarrassed when Sephiroth asked for a thousand sets of armor. The armor was indeed worth 5,000 gold coins, but he was not here to plunder Sephiroth. He had to give this prince some benefits.
Sephiroth was still very prestigious among the Qinyin nobles. Even if he was defeated in the battle of Holy Rock City, his status would not be much lower than Rex's. He returned to the country because he could not take things easy. If he was still in Holy Rock City, the people of the Golden Plain might not be able to threaten Rex.
Sephiroth could always distinguish between inside and outside. At critical moments, he would not target Rex alone, but rather protect the royal bloodline first.
"Sigh …" Salin sighed. This was the first time he had done such a losing deal, and it was with Sephiroth. Fate was really strange. A few years ago, he wanted to kill Sephiroth, but now he had to rely on his power.
It would take some time for the magicians to take control of this world. The nobles still controlled the Myers Continent for now. This was also where Salin was helpless. If he started to control the world now, it would cause the nobles to retaliate. If he relied on force, he could not really kill all the people in the Qinyin Empire.
Salin took out a divine crystal and said to Sephiroth, "I did not get this divine crystal from the Goddess of Nature. It was condensed by the believers of other gods. This thing can replace most of the materials in the magic potion formula you gave me. If you want, I can make it for you personally. If you don't believe me, you can ask the bearded magician beside you to make it for you. His alchemy is suitable for making potions. "
"Salin, why are you helping me?" Sephiroth also knew that the divine crystal was precious. This thing could not be obtained by believers. He did not know how Salin got it. If he knew that Salin could steal divine power and wash away the impurities in it, even the gods could not detect it, he would not be as emotional as he was now.
"Prince, although I have taken Phoenix and signed an alliance with the Iron Blood Grand Duke, I do not want Qinyin to fall. I am a magician. When I was desperate, the first thing I thought of was to come to Qinyin. I know that the power of the Vatican cannot enter. I do not even have such feelings for Scochenya, "Salin said honestly.
"Okay, I will remember your favor. Salin, as long as you protect the Qinyin Empire, I will not be your enemy anymore."
Salin smiled slightly. If Sephiroth did not target Rex, he did not want to be the enemy of this prince. He was not good at marching and fighting. He could only win because of the bravery of his subordinates and outstanding equipment. The same power in Sephiroth's hands could play a greater role, and the casualties would be reduced to a minimum. If possible, Salin hoped that Sephiroth would be his general.
The space in Salin's magic booster was vast. Within the twenty-seven eyes, the space could be expanded. Although there was no artifact spirit, it could allow Salin to transport a large number of materials.
However, Salin did not immediately leave anything for Sephiroth. After signing a simple contract, Salin returned to Metatlin City.
The artifact spirit of the magic booster had finally devoured the fragment of the Divine Kingdom and ignited its divine fire. From now on, if one wanted to enter Rafael's Demiplane, they would have to start from the teleportation array in Metatlin City.
The three artifact spirits ignited their divine fire. Salin released the magic booster and let the God of the Weave store the floating city in it.
This was a difficult process. All the lives on the floating city had to be moved out before large-scale refinement could be carried out.
The power of a false god was great. Even with its power sealed, the God of the Weave could make the floating city shrink infinitely. All he needed was an instant. The three eyes at the core of the Magic Amplification Device had a huge capacity to store energy.
The artifact spirit did not need to pay any price to transform the equipment. It was only because its rank was sealed that it was so difficult.
After Salin put away the floating city, the ring formed by the eyes of the magic booster appeared behind him. Behind him, a spatial door opened. Inside the spatial door was the shadow of the floating city.
This spatial door was not big, but the floating city could be released at any time. It had to be practiced repeatedly. Salin was delayed in Metatlin City until the end of the year. Only then did he rush back to Sephiroth's fief.
This time, he brought three powerful artifact spirits and Rafael. There were many strong people around him, so he did not need to be cautious. From New Demon City, he flew directly to the seaside. Salin moved forward at full speed.
When he approached Sephiroth's territory, Salin saw the miserable state of the city on the border. The entire city had been destroyed. Salin was shocked. He did not know whether it was the Iron Blood Duke or the Alchemy City.
No matter which side it was, it would be fatal to Sephiroth, who was unprepared.
Sephiroth himself was a Level-10 True Martial, and his combat power had even reached the level of a Level-11 True Martial. Coupled with his family's secret arts, it was not easy for him to be killed by mages.
What Salin was worried about was that if Sephiroth's kingdom was slaughtered, wouldn't his plan be ruined?
He needed the people here. He wanted to build a temple here!
Salin rushed down from the sky with the people around him. He saw that among the ruins, there were soldiers cleaning up the corpses. Most of the dead were civilians.
"I am Prince Salin of the Qinyin Empire. What happened here?" Salin used the Thunderous Deterrence skill to calm the flustered soldiers down. This skill could not only make people panic, but it could also calm them down.
Moreover, the thunderous sound had the power of deterrence. When the soldiers saw the badge Salin took out, they naturally believed Salin's words.
These were elite soldiers, and most of them had experienced cruel battles. None of them had taken off their armor. When they saw Salin, they saluted. A squad leader walked up and answered Salin.
"Your Highness, there are unknown mages attacking the city. More mages have gone to the imperial city. Your Highness, please leave and go to the imperial city to ask for help!"
Beside Salin, there was only Rafael. This time, Salin did not even bring the Winged Skeleton and Shika. Two mages who could fly were useless. The soldiers did not dare to say it directly. That would be looking down on the mages.
"The mages who attacked the imperial city. Did you see this symbol on them?" Salin created a magic image. In the magic image, there was the symbol of the Elemental Hand.
"Yes, Your Highness, it was these mages who did it!" The soldiers said angrily.
