The Winged Skeletons had obviously used a large amount of materials they had fished up from the bottom of the sea to create the Jade Skeleton. There were many corpses in the sea. If they could survive for more than 10,000 years without turning to dust, they would all be excellent materials for equipment.
It was not a waste for the Wing Skeleton to refine it into a Jade Skeleton. These Jade Skeletons were intelligent, loyal, capable of melee combat, and capable of using magic. Apart from their high requirements for equipment, a single Jade Skeleton was equivalent to four Magicians. After all, as long as there was energy to replenish, these skeletons wouldn't need to sleep.
Sarin brought Silva, Neris, and Nicholas down to the underground freezer.
Other than hunting on a large scale, Salin also had a few small boats that could only hunt within a few hundred miles of the coast. They could only deal with low-level Magical Beasts. Therefore, there was an icehouse in the harbor to store prey.
Large amounts of fish were also food, so they had to be kept fresh at low temperatures. Fortunately, Salin had a lot of mages at his disposal. He just had to send people to make large amounts of ice every day.
"Nicholas, what do you think of my city?" Salin brought Nicholas into the underground icehouse. What Nicholas saw wasn't just a mountain of sea creatures, but the icehouse itself.
"Master …" Nicholas had already signed a follower's contract, and the way he addressed her had unknowingly changed. "Could it be that this city is built entirely on this kind of stone?"
When he attacked Metatlin City, he discovered that the material of the city walls was too special. They were even harder to deal with than steel.
"Yes, when I came here, it was all like this. For the first half of the year, I was fighting against these stones." However, he had his own unique skills in dealing with these stones. Apart from the large number of undead and the help of the three Undead Lords, his own Water Stream was also the most suitable magical equipment for dealing with these stones.
"If there are six Magic Towers in the city, along with the Sequence of Dante on the city walls, unless the Church mobilizes a million troops and the Pope personally takes action, it's impossible to take down this city without a Divine Weapon."
"You're smart. Indeed, with six Magic Towers, it's enough to form a defensive circle and prevent the enemy from flying near the city walls," Salin said as he walked towards the alchemy factory behind the warehouse. There were many low-level Mages and even more magic apprentices here.
The magical beasts in the sea were identified by the intermediate level mages on Seriger Island before they were classified. Christian and Fareins took turns taking care of these tasks. These mages from Seriger Island were advancing faster than Salin had expected. Actually, this was very normal. Ever since they had followed Salin, they could use Monster Cores at any time, and the time they spent cultivating was several times longer than before.
Salin's divine temple was also built according to the specifications of a level-nine Magic Tower, which was enough to increase their cultivation speed to another level. Passatro and Cornuco even rose two ranks, directly becoming magi of the sixth rank.
Nicholas followed Salin and saw many alchemy rooms. Magicians were dissecting magical beasts, cutting their magic cores, and doing some simple processing. The internal organs of the Magical Beasts were sorted, and the edible meat was specially transported away and stored in the freezer. Bones, tendons, and skin were all alchemy materials. After processing them on the spot, the undead would be responsible for transporting them away.
Nicholas even saw the innards of the magical beasts being examined and stored in different categories.
Without looking back, Salin said to Nicholas, "Don't underestimate these organs. Many of them are very useful to us, such as swim bladders. Some swim bladders are large enough to be used as boats, while others can be used to make the best glue. They can be used to make cars, bows, and even houses. Most squid ink can be used to write scrolls instead of dragon blood ink, and it can also increase the success rate. Some fish intestines can be used to make bowstrings, and are even tougher than spider silk. The sea is a treasure trove. "
Nicholas was not a Mage, but he was also attracted by Salin's description. The Church's navy was not good, and there were not many fishermen. To prevent Cloud Flow's fleet from raiding, the Church even tightly controlled the fishermen in a few fishing grounds for easier management.
"Nicholas, do you have any other suggestions?" Salin did not continue to boast. Mages had a natural sense of superiority over Mages. This could not be helped. Because everything a Mage had was obtained through prayer, while everything a Mage had was created with their own hands.
"My Lord, the Church will not send another army to attack immediately. I've killed everyone. Even if there are some who escaped, they will probably be killed by Faka. My Lord has at least half a year to rest. Even if Dinicio wins a decisive victory at Galoulan, he will have to prepare again before he can launch a second attack on Metatlin City. So we are safe until next spring. Take advantage of this time to completely rebuild the pass on the west side. There is also a thirty-meter-high wall there, but the defense is terrible. "
Nicholas could not comment on the matter in front of him. He was a layman, but he had a deep impression of Duanren Pass.
"Alright, Nicholas. You know what large equipment the Church has. Help me design some targeted defensive measures. How about it?"
Wherever Salin passed, the Mages and apprentices greeted him and saluted him. He brought Nicholas and Neris to a warehouse at the back and took out the two space bracelets that the Jade Skeleton had given him.
"I don't know what good things the Wing Skeleton brought back for himself by letting the two Jade Skeletons come back first." Salin laughed.
The space bracelets were not big, but in fact, it was only compared to Salin's Dimension Stone. Even Neris's bracelet was not as strong as these two undead space equipment.
The warehouse, which was not small, was almost filled in an instant. Salin found that his mental power had improved again after recovering. The warehouse was almost filled with the corpses of a creature that emitted golden light.
Salin looked at the watermelon-sized sea creature with thorns all over its body. He hesitated for a moment and picked one up.
This creature was dead. Its body was a little shriveled. It must have been round when it was alive. The creature with a diameter of about a foot had hundreds of spikes on its body. These spikes were purple-gold and extremely sharp. Salin took out a Magic Nucleus and stabbed it with the purple-gold spike. Although it was a little strenuous, it still penetrated the Magic Nucleus.
"Purple-gold Sea Urchin? Isn't this thing unable to survive in the Myers Continent? "Salin was puzzled. This creature was not from the Myers Continent, but a unique creature in a plane full of seawater and without land. Because of its strange properties, humans used it to play with. But in the Myers Continent, this creature would die quickly and could not reproduce.
"What is a Purple-gold Sea Urchin?" Neris asked curiously. She saw that the sharpness of the Purple-gold Sea Urchin's spikes were so terrifying that they could even penetrate the Magic Nucleus. It must be known that the Magic Nucleus was one of the hardest known substances. In the natural world, materials that had not been refined were not much harder than the Magic Nucleus.
"This thing looks like a sea urchin, but in fact, it is a kind of magical beast without a rank. Do you see these spikes? In the sea, if an enemy approaches, the Purple-gold Sea Urchin will shoot its spikes. Even a whale can be poisoned in an instant. But this poison is precious, so the Purple-gold Sea Urchin is not willing to use it indiscriminately. This creature has a good appetite. Eating it once can last for a few months. It usually hides in the sand at the bottom of the sea. "
"Eating it once can last for a few months?" Even Sicar was curious.
"This guy's stomach is too big. Don't look at how it is only a foot long. Its innate ability is space. A stomach can hold a few cubic meters of food. After eating, it hides and digests. Moving less, it can fight less. Not wasting its poison, it can live longer. Because it doesn't have a Magic Nucleus, the Purple-gold Sea Urchin's evolved spikes are terrifyingly sharp. If you want to live, you have to rely on this thing. "
"Spatial Innate Skill!" Even Nicholas remembered now. The most precious thing about the Purple-gold Sea Urchin was not its spikes, but its skin that was born with the properties of space equipment. Moreover, it only needed to be refined. Ordinary people could put things in its mouth and take them out from its anus.
When humans were still strong, they certainly looked down on this ability. During the Second Dynasty, Purple-gold Sea Urchins were used to make leather balls for the nobles to play games.
During the Fourth Dynasty, a small number of Purple-gold Sea Urchins were made into space equipment. But at this time, humans could no longer conquer other planes, so the Purple-gold Sea Urchins disappeared from the sight of humans.
It was easy to catch a Purple-gold Sea Urchin because its spikes only had the ability to penetrate. Unlike the Red Krill, the spikes had the ability to cut, heal, and stop other negative effects. After releasing a spell to startle the Purple-gold Sea Urchins out of the sand, a large metal net would be thrown down and all of them would be scooped up. Human artifacts were best used to deal with monsters without magic cores. Purple-gold Sea Urchins had no teeth, so there was no way to deal with the metal net.
"Nicholas, since you have nothing to do now, why don't you stay here and work with us?" Salin smiled bitterly. He had to deal with the Purple-gold Sea Urchins himself. It was difficult for other people's alchemy to not damage the skin of the sea urchins. After his Water Flame Alchemy was done, the Purple-gold Sea Urchins would be almost finished.
Moreover, he could not allow these Purple-gold Sea Urchins to flow out. Whether it was against Mages, Mages, or Sword Saints, it was a particularly good material. It could be made into arrows for alchemy crossbows, which could deter professionals.
There were more than 15,000 Purple-gold Sea Urchins in the warehouse, each with more than 100 spikes. That was more than 1.5 million Purple-gold Sea Urchins. If someone else took them and used them against him, his Water Pattern Shield would not be able to block them. Even a Magic Shooter would be shot to death by a barrage of arrows.
More importantly, in the city defense, the arrow towers and arrow towers used to deal with Magic Shooters were all large alchemy crossbows. These Purple-gold Sea Urchins could be used on small alchemy crossbows.
When an army went to war, it was impossible to bring along metal arrow towers. Large alchemy crossbows could be easily destroyed by the enemy. Therefore, in a field battle, large alchemy crossbows could not be used against Magic Shooters.
