Chapter 1349 - 1094: Crystal Poison Alloy

"Then, you can die!" The black armor surged with mysterious energy runes, and the warrior transformed into a dazzling glow charging straight at Elsa. Elsa swung her sword to counter, and after the sound of metal tearing, the glow vanished. Elsa stood still in her original spot, while behind her, the warrior stood dazed with a colossal gash appearing on the chest of his armor!

That was a wound inflicted by Elsa!

"How can this be?" the warrior exclaimed in shock, "You actually managed to breach my armor!"

"How can this be?" Elsa also said, somewhat surprised, "I originally believed this one strike would be enough to cut you down."

"Ugly Celestial Clan, do you have any idea how costly my armor is! It is so expensive that only your life could compensate for it!" The warrior raged, and the light around him grew even more brilliant.

Elsa smiled and said, "That’s more like it, this must be your full power, right?" As she spoke, the gray light sword in her hand suddenly expanded a fraction, and she brought it down against the glowing light in one swift strike.

The next moment, the armor, now split in two, fell to the ground, and the warrior inside was held up by Elsa with one hand, his face filled with horror.

"Lord Gulu! Lord Gulu! Save me!" the warrior cried out.

"Rest assured, you won’t die." Saying this, Elsa released her hand and tossed the warrior onto the ground.

The warrior stood up in a panic. For their species, losing their armor meant their combat abilities were virtually negligible. But it seemed Elsa had no intention of killing him, so he just stood there, glancing at Gulu and then back at Elsa, unsure of what to do now.

"Weaker than I expected, but overall satisfactory," Elsa said to Gulu.

"Then, do you need a stronger warrior?" Gulu asked.

"There should be no need for that. However, if I take this suit of armor with me, will it cause you any trouble?" Elsa inquired.

"Not at all, I can simply apply for a new suit for him under the pretense of armor replacement, it’s just..."

Speaking, Gulu glanced at the warrior.

Elsa raised her hand, and the warrior, still lost in confusion, was suddenly sucked into her grasp by an unknown force. Immediately afterward, a brand-new consciousness replaced his original one.

"So, how about now?" Elsa said.

"There are no problems now, my master," the warrior said with a smile.

Elsa left the place with the damaged armor, making sure not to alarm anyone, as she realized that despite her great strength, the enemies she faced this time were also not weak. If she was not cautious this time, she could potentially face tremendous trouble. She simply took the armor with her, hoping to make an accurate assessment of this mysterious species by examining the technology within the armor. Of course, before leaving, she copied a set of Gulu’s memories for her reference.

At least now she knew that nearly two hundred million residents lived on that planet, and the number of warriors exceeded one million. Additionally, more than eight thousand warships stood ready for deployment at any time.

Logically, such a mighty race should have already conquered the entire plane. However, that was not the case because this planet was not a mere planet, but a gigantic spaceship influenced by the Home Star. Once detected exhibiting signs of invasion, they would be forcibly summoned back by the Home Star—for the Home Star faction did not wish for them to invade other planets. This led to their current state of wandering, having identified many potential targets but unable to act upon them.

In fact, that planet would soon be forcibly summoned back, leaving behind one warship and a thousand warriors in the Heaven Realm. Once they were free of the Home Star’s influence, their strength would diminish, but they would still be incredibly powerful to lifeforms within this plane.

Elsa could handle the thousand warriors on her own, but if she truly slaughtered them all by herself, the remaining warriors from the planet would be dispatched to retaliate. Alone, she definitely couldn’t eliminate them all swiftly.

Elsa had to prepare well in advance.

Shortly after leaving the planet, mysterious spatial fluctuations emanated from deep space—a sign that the planetary-sized spaceship was being forcibly teleported back.

Elsa then returned directly to her Ghost Spirits City, where she needed to quickly understand what was special about this suit of armor.

Upon seeing Elsa return, Nim was thrilled and reported the recent events to her. The spaceship had been conspicuously positioned above the Celestial Clan Imperial Palace, and the Emperor usually had no interaction with those warriors, though there had been a few exchanges and displays of combat prowess. Indeed, the Celestial Clan was somewhat resistant to these foreign warriors, particularly resenting the act of positioning their spaceship above the Imperial Palace. Some officers even argued that it was inappropriate to employ foreign forces during peacetime, for which the Emperor sternly reprimanded them. There was even an encounter where a hundred Celestial Clan warriors faced two of the opposing warriors and were defeated effortlessly.

```

That was a display of combat strength the Celestial Clan warriors had never seen before. In front of such power, even the legendary warriors of the Celestial Clan were helpless. Thus, the entire Celestial Clan suddenly became tense. Clearly, the Emperor had brought these mighty warriors to deal with Elsa! Although Elsa was exceedingly dominant and powerful, the appearance of such a group of formidable warriors meant that she would not stand a chance to fight back!

What to do! What could they do!

At this moment, Selena was the most anxious one. In her view, Elsa had done nothing wrong, yet after enduring so much suffering since childhood, her father, the Emperor, was now trying to eliminate her by all means? She eagerly wanted to find Elsa, but upon reflection, she realized her sister, although seemingly oblivious to the outside world, was almost omniscient about happenings within the Imperial Palace. The arrival of these warriors must have also been within her grasp.

What to do?

Could it really come to war?

"This war is inevitable," Elsa said to Nim. The armor on the experimental platform had been disassembled and set aside, and Elsa’s Light Wings wrapped around each piece of the armor, with energy flowing through, transmitting all the secrets hidden within the armor to Elsa.

"Is it because of His Majesty the Emperor?" Nim asked cautiously.

"No, it has nothing to do with him. This should be considered an extension of a war that occurred in the past," Elsa said.

"You speak of such profound matters," Nim admitted his lack of understanding.

"The true rulers behind those warriors are the Divine Worms. Do you understand now?" Elsa retracted her Light Wings. She had been studying the armor for several hours now and picked up a notebook beside her to jot down some content.

"That means His Majesty the Emperor has likely been brainwashed by the Divine Worms!" Nim said excitedly, as he still very much hoped for reconciliation between the Emperor and Elsa. Now that he heard Elsa say this, wasn’t there a chance for reconciliation?

"That, I do not know," Elsa said indifferently. Despite him being her father, past events had distanced her from her father. Her worldview and knowledge were primarily instilled by Long Yi, and although she couldn’t say she hated her father, she also didn’t feel close to him, and thus, whether he was controlled by the Divine Worms was of no concern to her.

Seeing that Elsa had no interest in discussing the matter further, Nim could only scratch his head and say no more.

While Elsa was no Giant, she had acquired a great deal of knowledge from them. She had accessed much useful information from the External Storage Device previously. Now, even though she lacked Long Yi’s foundation, she was able to thoroughly analyze the mysterious race’s armor.

The armor used by this mysterious race turned out to be an alloy of Crystal Poison!

It sounded unbelievable, but it was true. Crystal Poison was combined with metal in a very special manner to create a unique energy alloy. This alloy’s own strength wasn’t particularly high, but because it contained energy, it could not only absorb kinetic energy but also react to external pure energy supplies.

Without a doubt, this likewise represented a variant of Giant technology.

The Giants, before their departure, had attempted to create such a special alloy and proposed a certain approach, but whether they succeeded was unknown. Yet now, the alloys before Elsa were indistinguishable from those conceived by the Giants.

Elsa’s Light Wing slowly infused energy into a cut she had made, using the method provided by the Giants. Soon, the damaged area began to heal slowly, and as the infusion of energy accelerated, the damaged area rapidly mended. The black metal surprisingly rejoined into a whole piece!

Just as expected.

Elsa now had a clear idea in her mind.

In the upper planes, the finest metal was naturally Fine Gold, which the Golems had left for Elsa before their departure. However, the Giants had concluded that using Fine Gold for this energy alloy was counterproductive. Therefore, Elsa chose Mithril for the experiment. The massive cash flow of the gambling city had made Elsa incredibly wealthy, and she had long been preparing for war by stockpiling many precious metals, including Mithril of course.

Mithril was relatively soft and more commonly used in high-level energy devices in the upper planes, not particularly expensive. Elsa had casually obtained a large amount of it.

Placing a piece of Mithril in her hand, Elsa extended two grey Light Wings from her back, connecting them to the two ends of the Mithril. Above the Mithril was a crystal. This crystal was not Crystal Poison but Cosmic Stone.

Cosmic Stone contained far more powerful energy than Crystal Poison and, in this alloy system, both Crystal Poison and Cosmic Stone were not consumables but more like parts of some micro-mechanical device. Elsa decided not to experiment with Crystal Poison herself, so she chose to replace it with Cosmic Stone.

The two grey Light Wings erupted with astonishing Ghost Spirits power. Based on the knowledge left by the Giants and combined with the existing energy alloy structure, Elsa began the creation of a new alloy. (To be continued.
