[The first chapter, today's fourth chapter]
The two flew back to the Myers Continent quietly. Salin began to collect all kinds of metals for the 24 Thunder Dragons to swallow. This Soul Armor needed to absorb a lot of metals, including some precious metals. Fortunately, Salin had gained a lot in various temples, and the Soul Armor quickly matured. On the surface of the Thunder Dragon's body, complete scales finished growing, and the two horns on its head were wrapped, flashing with electricity.
In the bitwall map, Salin saw a large number of independent spaces, some of which were completely abandoned and had no value to explore, while some could be regarded as ruins that could be excavated.
But none of the ruins were more valuable than the Giant's Graveyard. At this time, Salin sighed at the importance of luck. When the Vatican fought with him for the Giant's Graveyard, they didn't do their best, but he put all his wealth into it.
If the Giant's Graveyard was obtained by the Vatican, they could get some god remains, which would make the Vatican's strength soar.
If Myers obtained these god remains, it would be the same. Unfortunately, none of the god remains had Godhood, which was the result of the Glory King's actions. With Godhood, these gods couldn't be easily suppressed by the Moon of Thunder and Lightning.
Salin's mind occasionally flew, thinking about the whereabouts of those Godhoods. But it was estimated that they had been refined long ago. The founding king of the first dynasty had the strength to refine the Godhood of all gods.
Even if there were some left, Salin felt very regretful when he thought of the Temple of the Gods. If there were enough Godhood, he could practice there until level 16. After level 16, it was impossible to advance by waiting for time.
Salin divided all the ruins on the Myers Continent into six levels according to their value. For the lowest level, he would send troops to collect them, led by a level 12 Magician. For the higher level, he would send people like Sue and Zola. For the highest level, he would go in person.
Salin did not explore the space that could not be seen on the bitwall map for the time being. In such a space, it was likely to be dangerous.
The places that could be explored in the three empires were excavated by Salin one by one, except for the Cloud Flow Empire, which Salin had not started yet.
The Cloud Flow Empire still retained its strength and showed off at sea.
Salin didn't care about this at all. In his Bode's Gate, the number of troops was increasing. Bode's Gate was different from the Floating-space City. It had enough space, and could grow food and be self-sufficient.
Salin knew his weakness. He didn't have enough defensive equipment.
When facing a battle against a God, there would be a huge number of enemies. If he only relied on the Water Pattern Shield, it would not be a problem for him to have twice as many Magic Strings as a Mage of the same level.
His Lightning Magic Robe was good at defense, but it was magic defense. It was also effective against divine spells, but it was not so effective against weapons.
Mage Armor? He was not a Warrior. Even if his physical defense was higher, his armor would still be damaged.
Salin didn't know why Raphael didn't let him equip the Soul Armor, but there had to be a reason. Otherwise, Salin wouldn't have been so reluctant if Raphael wanted this parasite.
The defensive power of the magic amplification device wasn't bad, but its main purpose was to provide offensive power for Salin's magic, and not to block the enemy's weapons.
Salin needed defensive equipment, and this Thunder Dragon Bracelet could temporarily replace it. If twenty-four Thunder Dragons revolved around Salin, even a meteor shower wouldn't be able to hit his head.
But that wasn't enough. Apart from his followers, Salin also had to arrange powerful soldiers to help him defend.
In the past, Salin could have chosen Demons as heavy armored infantry, but now that he had the Metal Angel, Salin simply let the Metal Angel wear the armor he designed and fight with him as a soldier.
Raphael was naturally the leader of the soldiers, and the Purple Angel was very pleased to be called Raphael's mount.
This puppet could change into many forms. Although it was powerful when it turned into the Golden Dragon, Salin had requested for two Thunder Dragon Spears to be installed on the Golden Dragon's head. Of course, the Purple Angel also had to turn into a two-headed Golden Dragon.
Zola, Sue, and the other followers weren't the main fighting force protecting Salin. They needed people to lead troops everywhere, so these strong followers were sent out to lead their own areas.
Because Salin had enough people to trust, he could search ruins, cultivate, and practice alchemy with peace of mind. Otherwise, Salin would have to learn the doppelganger technique of the Gods if he had to personally explore the ruins.
The Druidic Church continued to expand, and it was very easy for them to spread their religion in Scotia. As long as the people of Scotia didn't have to donate money, they could worship their religion. It turned out that the Holy Church had a hard time spreading their religion there because of the problem of donations.
The Druidic Church didn't need anything from them; they only needed faith.
It was a different scene in the Metatlin City. The godly palace in the center of the city was about four square kilometers, and it had expanded a little. The plants around the godly palace were all strange seeds that Salin brought back from the Godly Kingdom or other planes.
Especially in the Demiplane's Magic Forest, those plants were all artificially cultivated, and they had powerful vitality. Under the effect of Eleanor's elven magic, these plants had already matured. In addition, this was a place that was transformed from a primeval forest, and there were a lot of ancient trees and magic plants here. Therefore, no flaws could be seen.
Many mages, Caucasians, and a small number of demons lived in the godly palace. During Nelis's summoning process, many powerful demons appeared. These demons were subdued one by one and became a strange race in the Metatlin Kingdom. Normally, human kingdoms wouldn't accept other races, but these demons became members of the Metatlin Kingdom.
Of course, Salin would only accept Abyss Devils with unique bloodlines and special abilities.
Unknowingly, the demons were divided. These demons with special abilities were equivalent to human nobles, and they had higher authority.
In the entire Metatlin City, the east side was the most prosperous. A large number of merchant teams came here to trade for resources. Qin Yin's mining laws were useless here. Salin continuously found ore veins in the northern wilderness and sent Magicians to mine them. There was also the trade of low-level magic cores, allowing Metatlin City to still flourish in the midst of war.
Many people from Cloud Flow City came here, and they all relied on the fleet of the Iron Blood Duke. The people of Cloud Flow City also knew that Salin probably wanted to unify the continent, and this war wouldn't stop because of the collapse of the two empires.
Therefore, everyone was hoarding resources for the war, and Metatlin City didn't seem to have any intention of controlling it. All kinds of resources were being sold.
However, most of the time, the items traded weren't gold coins but special materials.
If they were traded with gold coins, they would have to pay a higher price.
Salin's kingdom didn't need too many gold coins to run. The food produced in Phoenix was enough for him to use. Fertile fields had also begun to be developed in the demiplane. The land there was all Salin's, and there was no need to worry about rain or sunlight. All of it was controlled by mages.
What Salin wanted were some rare items, such as fine gold.
There were also many ruins where the people of Cloud Flow City were. In the past ten thousand years, the number of high-level equipment and materials unearthed in Cloud Flow City was no less than that of the Qin Yin Empire. Salin's trade continued like this. His alchemy factory needed these materials to make powerful weapons and equipment.
Salin waited like this. He wasn't waiting for the arrival of a god, but for Rex to advance. Ever since Rex became the emperor, Salin had been very careful with his advancement speed. However, after being stuck at level-13, he couldn't advance any further.
If Rex could reach level-14 and have the defense of the Divine Sieve Ring, Salin would dare to fight a god head-on. However, he couldn't let the emperor be in danger now.
There were still more and more powerhouses in the empire, and the power of the Myers Continent was completely loosened. Level-15 became the upper limit of the plane's power. If one wanted to use the power of level-16, it would be greatly weakened.
Moreover, Goddess Myers was resurrected, and the God of Light might not dare to come alone.
The land that Salin controlled was getting wider and wider, from Phoenix to Jialou Lan, then to the Tanggulas Empire, and then to Scotia. In reality, there weren't many cities in his hands. Most of the cities were only loyal to the Metatlin Kingdom in name, but they were still under the jurisdiction of the original nobles.
Salin was already satisfied as long as these nobles didn't oppose the missionary work. He couldn't anger Myers for now. He had to use the God of Light to test the combat power of his army.
Salin built more and more magic webs, and the number of control masters was also increasing rapidly.
Although the giant artifact spirit controlled the Moon of Lightning, it could still absorb the power of faith from the magic webs. Anyone who used the magic webs would provide power to the giant artifact spirit.
Many former believers of the Holy Church turned into control masters, and that was how they could escape the pursuit of the Druidic Church. Salin's actions caused the number of control masters to increase rapidly. Almost a million former clergymen didn't choose to believe in the Druidic Church. Instead, they pledged allegiance to Salin and became his control masters.
The mental power of mages was never weak, and becoming control masters allowed them to quickly adapt to their identities.
On this day, Salin saw an obvious spatial tunnel appear on the plane map. However, it wasn't the God of Light who was attacking. Instead, a subcontinent had established a connection with the Myers Continent.
This spatial tunnel wasn't stable, but according to Salin's calculations, it would expand by a hundred times in about a month, and people would be able to enter and exit freely.
The evil god didn't come, but a subcontinent did. Salin nervously prepared. Also, because the evil god was very powerful, he had been on guard.
Although there were many masters and alien races in the subcontinent, Salin didn't take them to heart.
It just so happened that Ainphent wanted to go and take a look. Salin sent the floating city and temporarily lent it to Ainphent, letting him, the duke of the kingdom, go and stop the evil god.
