Chapter 1229: 391. Magic Propulsion_2
The Mentor immediately reported to the Department of Magic, and upon receiving the news, the Department of Magic issued a notice to all wizard forces, requesting that each send at least 10 combat wizards for assistance.
Soon, a wizard army numbering ten thousand gathered within the Department of Magic and set off towards the Pollution Zone on Alchemist Island.
At the same time, Noland Lee was in the Sub-Dimensional Plane with Nolin, inventorying the gains from their trip.
Before placing the Anti-Demon Metal Ingots into the “Shadow Pouch”, Noland Lee had checked them with Deconstruction.
Those ingots with issues were all discarded by Noland Lee.
The Anti-Demon Metal Ingots that he brought into the Sub-Dimensional Plane showed no abnormalities, ensuring that they could not be tracked by the Metal Ancestor Dragon.
...
Nolin spent half an hour meticulously taking stock and drawing up a table.
After viewing the statistics, Noland Lee felt both pleasantly surprised and somewhat helpless.
The surprise came from the abundant haul, enough to equip thirty million Non-metallic Machinery Spirits with Anti-Demon shells.
The helplessness stemmed from the fact that the anti-demon materials were metallic and could potentially be controlled by the Metal Ancestor Dragons.
Adhering to the cautious principle that risk inevitably leads to outbreak, Noland Lee decided to seal this batch of Anti-Demon Metal Ingots, waiting for an opportunity to sell them to a suitable buyer in exchange for a vast amount of Soul Energy.
“Let’s store these Anti-Demon Metal Ingots for now,” Noland Lee asked Nolin:
“How is the preparation for the ritual array to communicate with the Angel Creation Group coming along?”
This Pollution Zone trip made Noland Lee realize the importance of having the Assassin Angel’s Division by his side.
Thus, the first thing upon returning and completing the inventory of anti-demon materials was to prepare the ritual array to summon the Assassin Angel’s Division.
Nolin operated the magic access meter and opened a new table, saying:
“Hmm… Sir, we need three more months to prepare the energy needed for the ritual array. If we halt the construction work on the Non-metallic Machinery Spirits assembly line, we could initiate the ceremony in just half a month.”
Noland Lee folded his arms in contemplation:
“Three months… we can wait a bit. First, let’s build the assembly line and advance a mighty army of Non-metallic Machinery Spirits. Otherwise, if the wizards outside break in, and we can’t defend against them, then it would be troublesome.”
“Understood, Sir,” Nolin remembered something:
“Oh, right. I forgot to tell you, during the time you were away, traces of magic avatars appeared in the Maze Space, sent by the external wizards. Following your instructions, I directly used the Sentry Mechanisms to destroy these magic avatars.”
Noland Lee raised an eyebrow:
“These wizards are truly bold, I need to teach them a lesson… Where are the remnants of the magic avatars? Did you keep any samples?”
Nolin nodded and had a Machinery Spirit bring Noland Lee a box made of non-metallic material.
Upon opening the box, it was lined with materials needed to create magic avatars.
Due to the bombardment from the Sentry Mechanisms, the materials were damaged but their types and materials could still be identified.
Noland Lee examined the materials one by one and primarily confirmed the origin of the magic avatars, exactly the handiwork of Clint “Windhawk” and Benjamin Jelani.
This time, they were smarter; instead of sending high-quality magic avatars possessing half of the original’s strength but at a high cost, they used extremely cheap Magic Dolls to scout the Maze Space.
It was noteworthy that with each dispatch, the defensive capabilities of the Magic Dolls improved, clearly probing the defensive strength of the Maze Space.
By evaluating the survival duration of the Magic Dolls, the strength of the Maze Space’s defenses could be inferred.
This, in turn, allows targeted planning and finding opportunities to send high-quality magic avatars to cause disturbances.
If even one magic avatar returned alive, then the situation inside the Maze Space would be exposed, attracting more trouble.
Noland Lee looked at the magic materials in the box, and a strategy emerged in his mind, turning retreat into advance.
He had Nolin reduce the firepower of the Sentry Mechanisms to allow any Magic Dolls that appeared in the Maze Space next time to survive longer.
Simultaneously, Noland Lee thought of an excellent use for the Anti-Demon Metal Ingots.
He could exploit the feature “when a magic avatar is destroyed, its original body cannot gain its memories” by using cages crafted from Anti-Demon Metal Ingots in the Maze Space.
As long as no magic avatars escaped, he could boldly use the Anti-Demon Metal Ingots without worrying about information leaks.
However, to be on the safe side, a layer of Disguise still had to be placed on the Anti-Demon Metal Materials to prevent others from easily associating them with Anti-Demon Materials.
Noland Lee spent several days with Nolin designing a plan, and during this period, he did not forget to leverage the artificial sun in the Sub-Dimensional Plane to practice the Cultivation Breathing Method and Body forging.
Three days later, ten cages surfaced in the Sub-Dimensional Plane, their surfaces densely covered with mysterious patterns and coated.
The cages were crafted from Anti-Demon Materials and covered with a layer of hard, non-metallic thin film.
This film only conducted energy without absorbing it.
All the magic energy applied to the film would penetrate the film and directly affect the inner Anti-Demon Materials, which would neutralize the magic energy.
Thus, the imprisoned magic avatars could not escape by any means.
To prevent the magic avatars from using unconventional means such as Shape-Shifting Spells or Teleportation Spells to escape, Noland Lee engraved magical runes on the film that disrupted and counteracted these spells. noveldrama
