"How did you fight before?" Salin asked Winnie directly.
Winnie didn't answer Salin's question. Instead, magic patterns flashed all over her body, and she shrunk into a stone badge that landed on the ground. The 144 level-9 Stone Soldiers also shrunk and jumped into the stone badge one by one.
Salin bent down and picked up the stone badge. The connection between him and the broken jade was very clear in the badge. Salin gave an order in his mind, and the magic light on the badge shone. A hundred-meter-tall Stone Soldier rushed out of the space in front of Salin, blocking in front of him.
Salin calmed down. This method of control was the same as the Stone Soldiers he'd obtained before. Moreover, Winnie's control was stronger, and it was easier to communicate with him. He could also directly order the level-9 Stone Soldier in front of him to do what he wanted it to do.
This was much stronger than a level-7 Stone Soldier!
Was this the legendary Elemental Badge? An equipment used by ancient humans to control elemental creatures!
The Elemental Badge ignored the size of the elemental creatures. The magic arrays inside were arranged according to the number of elemental creatures. Each elemental creature only occupied one elemental node. This badge was formed by Winnie, and there were 144 elemental nodes on it. It couldn't accommodate any more elemental creatures.
144 level-9 Stone Soldiers were much stronger than the ones he could create himself. These elemental creatures were definitely not limited by time.
Salin and Winnie communicated, and the Elemental Badge exploded with a strong magic light. This magic light didn't cause any magic arrays nearby to react. The Elemental Stone Soldiers were originally used to protect this city.
The hundred-meter-tall Stone Soldier started to shrink, and the green rock armor on its body became darker. When it shrunk to about ten meters, the color of the elemental armor had become pure black. Salin knew that the size of the Elemental Stone Soldier couldn't be shrunk any further, but this was enough. The ten-meter-tall Stone Soldier was less than a meter away from the Stone Soldier he'd created. It could completely blend into his magic.
The black Stone Soldiers were far more powerful than the puppets made from the magic stored in his magic robe. These Stone Soldiers had their own consciousness, while the puppets had to be commanded by him. In a one-on-one fight, they were no match for a level-8 human professional.
Salin recalled the Stone Soldier and embedded the Elemental Badge into the Demon God Set's belt instead of the Demon God Ring. There were slots for equipment on the belt of the Demon God Equipment Set. This was something that Joey had personally refined. It was equivalent to giving a mage six more slots for equipment.
Salin understood. Joey definitely knew some Ancient Mage techniques. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to embed the Elemental Badge on his belt.
Each of the six major elements had a corresponding elemental badge. Salin's anticipation increased again.
Back then, humans used elemental creatures to defend the city as soldiers, so they definitely wouldn't only use earth elemental creatures. The Water Elemental Badge, Fire Elemental Badge, Wind Elemental Badge, Light Elemental Badge, and Dark Elemental Badge were all very powerful. Back then, humans might not think much of it, but for the current Myers Continent, it was a piece of equipment that surpassed the times.
Salin simply returned to the military station. He swam to the second floor, looked at the half-broken ceiling, and found the collapsed part. The collapsed ceiling pressed down on a small bed. This small bed was only three meters long, which happened to be the favorite length of ancient humans. A three-meter-long bed was obviously not for elemental creatures.
There were no corpses on this bed. Obviously, the humans here had left before the city was destroyed. Even so, Salin still found equipment that belonged to humans.
It was a magic ring. This ring was pure black, and it was unknown what type of jade it was made of. The creature carved on the ring looked familiar to Salin, but it was the six-winged flying snake.
The six-winged flying snake was also a powerful creature in ancient times.
Salin tried using his mental power, but found that he couldn't open the space inside the ring. He was a level-8 Magic Shooter, and his mental power surpassed most level-9 Magic Shooters. If he couldn't open the ring, then it wasn't a pure spatial equipment, but a sealing ring.
There was obviously no six-winged flying snake in the ring, and Salin didn't dare to have such extravagant hopes. The six-winged flying snake was a powerful creature, and also a creature that could produce intelligence. If there really was a six-winged flying snake in the ring, Salin couldn't control it. The biggest possibility was that he would be eaten.
Salin kept the six-winged flying snake ring. This was a sealing ring. If he encountered a six-winged flying snake in the future, he might be able to take it. Wasn't the Glücos Family raising low-level six-winged flying snakes? This ring could obviously seal a higher-level six-winged flying snake. The six-winged flying snake was the guardian creature of the Glücos Family, not Salin's. If there was a chance, Salin would definitely find a way to seal one in the ring.
Winnie said that this city was twelve thousand miles long and eight thousand miles wide. This was basically a huge country. Salin didn't expect to find anything directly. Entering the Abyss King City could only depend on luck.
King City! Winnie said that this was the King City. Could it be the fief of a king of the First Dynasty!
The entire fief was a giant city, but why would this giant city come to the Abyss? Could it be that the humans had even occupied the sea? This was not impossible. The Frozen Sea was rich in resources, and was extremely attractive to the ancient humans.
The human's footprints had even crossed the Sea of Storms. The countries in the East Sea were probably the descendants of the ancient humans, and not the foreign races like the subcontinents.
The humans of the subcontinents and the Myers Continent were actually two different races. The lives of humans there were short, and the lifespan of an ordinary person was only one-third of that. Even if the people of the Myers Continent didn't cultivate any skills, they could still live up to 120 years old, while the people of the subcontinents could only live up to 80 years old.
In the Abyss King City, Salin only wanted two things. One was the Elemental Badge, and the other was the remains of the Unicorn Beluga. When the humans conquered the sea, they set up a cemetery for the Unicorn Beluga. This Unicorn Beluga must be a very important creature to the humans.
The Stone Golem Salin didn't want to collect anymore. On the Demon God Armor that Joey had refined for him, there were six equipment slots arranged on the belt. This was also the limit of Salin's mental strength. If he added more equipment slots, Salin couldn't use them all at once. Although Salin's mental strength was powerful, it was still within Joey's calculations. Joey had even calculated what level Salin could reach after advancing to the 9th rank.
Salin returned to the vicinity of the city wall and summoned the Water Puppet. Lawson soon appeared, and he said doubtfully: "Master, the Stone Golems in the vicinity have disappeared!"
"I collected them. Lawson, this is for you." Salin said, took off the crystal ring, and gave it to the Water Puppet.
"Master, this?" The Water Puppet put on the crystal ring, and didn't understand Salin's meaning.
"I am collecting Elemental Badges, but … I need to refine some things as a backup."
"Okay, Master, where is Neris?"
"Outside." Salin didn't say much. The Water Puppet was his equipment. Salin had always thought so in his heart. Even if the Water Puppet's intelligence surpassed that of most magical beasts, Salin would not really treat the Water Puppet as a person. It was normal for a Mage to bring their own equipment on an adventure.
Salin knew that if he wanted to enter the center of King City and find the graveyard of the Horned Beluga Whale, he would need the help of Elemental Badges. The outer defense was actually very loose, and because of the age, many magic settings had failed.
But the core of King City must still be maintaining a precise operation.
With six Elemental Badges, Salin was confident of dealing with most complicated situations. He would enter the graveyard of the Horned Beluga Whale, obtain a large number of magic cores, and then turn around and leave. He would come back to explore again when he had the chance. At that time, he would lead a large number of subordinates to plunder this place.
As for how to bring people in? Neris had the 12 Movements of Purgatory, and the number of demons she could carry could reach tens of thousands. There was no need to worry about the carrying capacity of the Coiled Turtle Alchemy Ship.
Salin returned to the military station with the Water Puppet. The stairs here had been smashed by the Stone Soldiers, but other places were intact. Salin searched for materials in his Demon God Ring. The requirements for materials to refine the Eternal Control Fragment were extremely high.
The Water Puppet was guarding the door, and a Hunter Spider was lying on its head. The Hunter Spider had been reforged, and it was still a mid-level puppet. Its combat power was not strong, but it was an effective tool for sneak attacks and digging.
In the huge room, Salin took out the last broken jade and began to study it carefully. He had to understand more Eternal Control Rules in order to be able to completely control level-nine or even level-ten creatures.
The control of the Stone Soldiers was extremely easy because of the broken jade in the soul fire of the Three Monarchs. If Salin had refined the Eternal Control Fragment himself, he would not have been able to control level-ten creatures.
The materials in Salin's Demon God Ring were very rich, especially this time. He had obtained a lot of Horned Beluga Whale horns, which were very good materials. But the horns of the Horned Beluga Whale alone were not enough to make the Eternal Control Fragment. Salin searched through his gems and sorted out all the black crystals.
The black crystals could contain souls. Salin had a lot of black crystals, and most of them were distributed to the necromancers who relied on him. The remaining black crystals in his hands were all from Myers' temple. They were of very high quality and could be used by a level-nine necromancer. Salin had originally planned to distribute them to his necromancers when they advanced, but now he could only use them himself.
The horns of the Horned Beluga Whale ranged from one to three meters long. Salin took out five three-meter long whale horns and threw them into the water flames. At the same time, he threw in five huge black crystals.
The black crystals immediately turned into liquid and seeped into the whale horns. The horns of the Horned Beluga Whale were extremely tough. The Horned Beluga Whale could use this horn to release magic, and it could also directly break through the ice to breathe on the surface of the water. The Horned Beluga Whale could easily break through an ordinary layer of ice that was thirty to fifty meters thick. Therefore, the Horned Beluga Whale was not restricted by any geographical environment, and the ice could not restrict its movements.
