Chapter 273: The First Demon Golem-Class Mechanized Armor
Chapter 273: The First Demon Golem-Class Mechanized Armor
"Ha~"
Qin Muye exhaled, a large mouthful of black-red, highly concentrated energy gas gushed out of his mouth.
He was speechless at the sight.
"The concentration of the spirit energy revival is a bit too high. While it won't kill spirits, it could certainly kill humans."
The World Core seemed to be a massive energy inducer, causing the abyssal power within his territory to swell to its peak.
This was somewhat expected, as this device was originally meant to revive the spirit energy of the entire world. However, it only took effect within his territory, making the concentration naturally higher. If not for the protection of the Endless Abyss, it would have overflowed outside.
Clank~
A crisp sound was heard, and a black-red crystal fell to the ground, making Qin Muye frown.
"A bit excessive."
This crystal was a concentrated form of highly concentrated abyssal power. When he exhaled, the high concentration of abyssal power from his body combined with the abyssal power in the air, resulting in this form.
Currently, Qin Muye was emitting black-red abyssal power all over his body. Anyone who saw him would undoubtedly label him as a major villain, the kind that couldn't be whitewashed even if soaked in bleaching powder and fried in oil.
"Whatever, if I'm a villain, then so be it. If someone judges by appearance, they're definitely not a decent person."
Qin Muye never judged people by their appearance; he usually classified them based on their body structure. Appearance, to him, was like a cloud, insignificant.
After all, anyone who could still look human was already doing their best to maintain their appearance.
Emitting a bit of abyssal power or having some strange things around was no big deal.
"Master, the final assembly of the first Demon Golem-Class Mechanized Armor is complete. Would you like to inspect it?" Black Hand walked in slowly. He was in better shape, not emitting abyssal power, but the divine spirit avatar behind him had become somewhat sinister, as if it had been twisted and corrupted.
However, this was just appearance; after all, it was just a server with no self-awareness.
If needed, Qin Muye could apply a beautification patch when he improved the spirits to the 6th stage.
The most important thing was that these spirits contained a large amount of abyssal power, making the term "elemental spirits" a bit of an insult to the word "element."
"Black Hand, what do you think about renaming the spirits to Abyssal Spirits when they reach the 6th stage?" Qin Muye asked offhandedly.
"..." Black Hand was speechless. "Master, perhaps I should check your mental state? Your thoughts have been getting stranger lately."
"Oh, it's a minor issue, a side effect of taking big steps. Let's go check the Demon Golem-Class Mechanized Armor." Qin Muye collected his thoughts and said.
This was a minor side effect, as his alignment gradually shifted towards chaos, likely due to his methods being a bit off. This resulted in somewhat chaotic behavior.
However, it wasn't all bad. When his thoughts were strange, his mind would flash with creative ideas. A slight divergence in thinking could lead to various experimental projects that seemed a bit bizarre but were incredibly powerful.
For example, the Gargoyle-Class Armor, which had already become completely incomprehensible due to these strange thoughts.
From its original exoskeleton form, it transformed into a biological symbiote similar to Venom, incorporating elements from the Shadow Walker system, the Predator's nanotechnology and biotechnology, and the Pioneer Empire's bio-weapons technology.
Its attributes were significantly enhanced, and it gained additional features such as regeneration, mimicry, and high-energy weapons.
For instance, the Predator's shoulder cannon, which was normally a weapon, now, with the addition of abyssal power and some peculiar technologies, resembled an alien's tongue. It could not only fire projectiles but also serve as a melee weapon, combining with the divine spirit avatar and tentacles to deliver a headshot to enemies.
When not in use, it could melt into flesh and even recompile into other forms, such as a head or an arm.
The main issue during production was that the raw materials couldn't be the same as before, using metal. Instead, it used Qin Muye's own cultivated blood flesh symbiotes, which could regenerate rapidly with sufficient nutrient solution.
Following Black Hand to inspect the Demon Golem-Class Mechanized Armor, he mainly wanted to check for any performance issues or areas for further improvement.
If there were no problems, he planned to mass-produce it, using it as a standard weapon for external use.
As for the Gargoyle-Class Armor, it would naturally be a standard issue.
If it weren't for the sheer number of spirits under his command, Qin Muye would have wanted to equip each one with a Demon Golem-Class Mechanized Armor.

"This artifact seems a bit underwhelming, doesn’t it?"
Qin Muye had initially thought it would be at most a high-grade item, but he didn’t expect it to be an artifact.
Qin Muye had indeed invested a lot. For instance, the mimicry feature of this armor was modeled after the ancient weapon Yinshan Jun's fitting structure. By connecting it with the Gargoyle-Class Armor or the magic network server, it could upload data and change its own form.
Therefore, a Demon Golem-Class Mechanized Armor without a spirit was just a rough shell.
Moreover, such a large and intricate armor naturally had more than just the semi-digitized features displayed. It combined various advanced technologies, including interstellar tech, magic, shadow techniques, divine power, and more, forming powerful weapons and armor.
In other words, a new round of training would begin. Only those who passed the training would be assigned to a Demon Golem-Class Mechanized Armor.
The main issue was the large population and the massive size of the Demon Golem-Class Mechanized Armor. Otherwise, if he gritted his teeth, he could have provided one for everyone.
Unless corresponding spatial technologies were developed, such as folded space or storage rings.
He actually had high hopes for the shadow space, as it was part of his power. Although it had been integrated into his new Abyssal system, the development of the Abyssal system was slow and far less convenient than before.
"The main issue is with the first generation. If we continue to develop it, various performance and abilities can gradually improve, just like the Gargoyle-Class Armor," Black Hand said. He understood Qin Muye's disappointment, as an artifact truly was underwhelming.
While the attributes of this armor were long, they were all based on mana. During defense, it could use the energy channel to draw power from the territory, but if it ventured too far from the territory, it would suffer from a certain degree of decay, or even lose connection.
"Think about it, if we were to make this armor widespread, wouldn't all the spirits be capable of slaying gods?" Qin Muye still wanted to make it widespread.
It was expensive, but when it came to ensuring his own safety, Qin Muye was quite passionate.
"Master, the issue isn't with making it widespread, but where to store them?" Black Hand also wanted to make it widespread, but the armor was indeed too large.
"They can be stored in the shadows. That way, each spirit can carry an armor with them, and it can also serve as a tracking device. In the future, when the spirits go out to raid, we won’t have to worry about them disappearing," Qin Muye stroked his chin, thinking.
Shadow gear, which was already quite bizarre, could be stored in the shadows, so it shouldn’t be a big deal to store this armor, which was also quite peculiar.
After all, they were equally bizarre in their own ways.
"Alright, if you’re not worried about resources, then it’s not a problem."
"However, there is one more thing: the Great Abyss Dynasty is preparing to send envoys to pay homage."
Black Hand was naturally willing to execute Qin Muye's request, as equipping each spirit with an armor was indeed very powerful. Even 6th-stage heroes would be cut down like vegetables by the spirit troops.
However, this wasn’t something that could be achieved in a short time. The Demon Golem-Class Mechanized Armor wasn’t like the Gargoyle-Class Armor; it required a certain amount of time to manufacture.
"Pay homage? Handle it as you see fit. If possible, get the Great Abyss Dynasty’s sorcerer system. I think it might be quite useful."
Qin Muye had never seen a sorcerer, but he knew a bit about them. These sorcerers cultivated a form of energy similar to mental evolution, forming powerful combat capabilities from within.
Very suitable for someone like him, who preferred to stay at home.
