Odis was using "Ten Suns in the Sky" to deal with a "Blood Prince". When the tenth "sun" appeared, the "Blood Prince" was completely rolled into a small ball and finally disappeared from normal sight.
Soon, the "Blood Duke" felt an unprecedented heat and saw the brightest light!
The fusion process was complete, and every microscopic particle in the "Blood Duke" was affected, all irresistibly moving towards aggregation.
But soon, the power of this aggregation disappeared, and the "Blood Duke" was restored.
He was still that handsome human, but he knew very well that his body had completely broken down.
This~
A spurt of blood suddenly shot out from his chest, followed by another spurt from his shoulder, then his thighs, back, and head. Soon, his entire body seemed to have turned into a showerhead, with large amounts of blood gushing out from his body, making him look like a fountain.
When all ten suns appeared, the power of all the suns underwent a qualitative change, continuously burning and purifying all the depravity and evil on earth.
Even Bernadette felt immense pressure from the "pale death" she wore on her face, so she had to take off the mask and find a place to hide from the scorching sun.
Meanwhile, the "Blood Duke" who was fighting her immediately turned into a ball of black liquid and took the opportunity to escape.
The indigenous people in the distance began to worship the sun, and their spirits were gradually becoming clear.
Whew~
The sturdy logs erected in each village suddenly burst into flames, and as they burned, it seemed as if there were resentful roars.
The crew of the Dawn were completely stunned by what they saw: several suns were spinning in the sky, a truly breathtaking sight!
Bathed in sunlight, Odis saw the "Blood Duke's" body rapidly disintegrate, with copious amounts of blood gushing out.
The entire valley was turned into a sea of blood.
But soon, the massive amount of blood, imbued with the aura of decadence, was evaporated by the sun, leaving nothing behind.
Odis breathed a slight sigh of relief and finally stopped infusing spiritual energy into the "Staff of Gus," and the "reappeared" sun disappeared into the sky.
But the surrounding sunlight kept the entire island bright for a long time before it finally disappeared completely.
Odis looked at the ground beneath his feet, and reached one hand deep into the "wilderness of knowledge".
Ah~
Suddenly, a pitiful scream rang out from the indigenous village.
Odis immediately teleported to the indigenous village, where he saw that all the villagers were dead, blood flowing from their eyes, nostrils, ears and mouths.
The blood pooled together and formed a liquid humanoid figure with curved ram horns and a long tail, which was none other than the "Blood Duke" who had fought Odis earlier.
As an angel, of course I wouldn't just die like that.
But at this moment, the "Blood Prince" was very weak. He raised his head, which was made of blood, glanced at Odis in the sky, and prepared to escape into the abyss by relying on the evil in the hearts of the natives in other villages.
The abyss has two entrances: one in the real world and the other in people's hearts.
In the human heart, all depravity and evil are the entrance to the abyss.
Once the process of entering the abyss begins, Odis cannot stop it, for he cannot eliminate the evil in people's hearts. But at this moment, Odis takes out his hand from the "wilderness of knowledge," and in his hand is a grape leaf that radiates pure light.
This grape leaf was obtained by Odis when she was playing the role of a "wizard." It was the purest thing in the world, something that demons hated, cursed, and feared.
Of course, this object doesn't necessarily have to look like a grape leaf; it could be anything in nature.
They appear when the world is filled with evil and depravity, and they are things that occur with very low probability.
At the time, Odis, who was still Sequence 7, used it to severely injure the "Apostle of Desire" who wanted to assassinate Duke Negan.
At this moment, Odis took out the grape leaf, and the "Blood Duke" was first surprised, then couldn't help but tremble.
This grape leaf has no distinction of levels; it can be used to purify any demon.
However, who uses the grape leaf is crucial. When Odis was only Sequence 7, he lacked spirituality and was therefore unable to use the grape leaf to kill the "Apostle of Desire".
If one had sufficient spirituality, the "Apostle of Desire" would have been no match for him.
At this point, Odis was already Sequence 2 and no longer needed to worry about spirituality. He raised the grape leaf high, and a clear, bright light fell from it, instantly silencing all evil thoughts on the entire island.
The "Blood Prince" belatedly realized that his escape to the abyss had come to an end.
He desperately wanted to escape, but helplessly discovered that he was not only weak, but most of his ability to escape had suddenly disappeared. At this moment, the clear light on the grape leaf suddenly formed a long sword, which pierced the top of the "Blood Duke's" head and pierced through the "Blood Duke".
Ah~
The weakened "Blood Prince" let out a mournful cry, which eventually turned into one of resentment and frustration.
Xiu was unwilling to be killed like this and regretted not escaping beforehand.
A clear light emanated from his body, purifying him from the inside out, and eventually turning into a mass of black blood.
The pool of black blood merged with the ornaments hanging around the necks of the indigenous corpses nearby, forming a blood-red seal.
Inside the abyss.
It was a canyon with steep, black cliffs, the bottom of which was nowhere in sight, and the end nowhere in sight.
The cliffs are not made of stone, but of black solid lines.
Their surfaces are so sticky that they seem ready to flow down the cliff face at any moment.
At this moment, the abyss was quiet. Under the influence of the "Mother Tree of Desire," the environment here had undergone tremendous changes, and even demons could no longer survive here.
Pfft~
Suddenly, two hands reached out from the black cliff and parted a section of it.
Ah~
Amidst painful roars, a rather handsome man with curved goat horns and a long tail emerged from within.
This is the "Blood Duke" who fought against Odis.
Then, on the surrounding cliff face, the black solids suddenly bulged up and sprouted leaves with teeth, branches with tongues, and flowers with black hairs.
The "Mother Tree of Desire" hopes to use the remnant soul of the "Blood Duke" to compete for the characteristics of Sequence Level 2.
At this time, on the island where Odis was located.
Just as he was about to examine the level 0 sealed item, he suddenly sensed something and quickly put the accessory into the "Wilderness of Knowledge".
Where the "Blood Duke" had just died, a small gushing stream of blood appeared again. As the bright red blood gushed out, a tree full of bones, fur, and internal organs grew.
Odis sensed the malice emanating from the repulsive tree and quickly moved away.
The trees swayed as if searching for something, but ultimately found nothing and quickly withered away.
In the abyss.
Amidst the "Blood Duke's" incessant, agonizing screams, he felt no sense of where his own unique characteristics had gone.
Therefore, the process of retaking it would be impossible.
The tree on the cliff face with its teeth-like leaves and tongue on its trunk also withered quickly and ceased its efforts.
The roar of the "Blood Duke" gradually weakened, his eyes became unfocused, and he strode forward, beginning to wander in the abyss.
In fact, he can no longer be called the "Blood Duke" because he has lost his special characteristics, his strength has been downgraded, and his spirit body is already very incomplete, making it impossible to make any effort to resurrect him.
He became a demon who wandered the abyss driven by instinct.
If he hadn't long ago believed in the "Mother Tree of Desire," he wouldn't even have been able to survive in the abyss.
Once Odis was on the island, after confirming that the "Blood Duke" had no other plans for resurrection, he used "teleportation" to meet up with Bernadette.
Even if there were other arrangements, Odis didn't need to worry about them. After all, the other party had already lost the characteristics of an angel, and even if he were resurrected, he could not become the "Blood Duke" again.
After reuniting with Bernadette and learning that another "Blood Duke" had escaped, Odis first tore out several streams of information that had completely degenerated and turned entirely black from her body.
After those information streams were destroyed, Odis's body was pieced together to form a complete human body.
After adjusting his state, he asked, "Since these two 'Blood Dukes' were able to leave without being sealed, and their condition is still acceptable..."
Why hide on this island?
At this point, the two of them looked at the two tall stone gates together.
The answer to this question is clearly inside the stone gate.
Odis opened the stone door again, and the deep, high corridor appeared before the two of them.
The two people could still sense the strong malice within, but it didn't seem dangerous anymore.
Clearly, the danger just now mainly came from those two "Blood Dukes".
So Odis summoned another "invisible servant" to scout ahead.
This time, after the "invisible servant" entered the grand corridor, it was not influenced by the "corruption" authority and did not betray Odis. Instead, it obediently scouted ahead.
Odis then sent the "invisible servants" forward to explore, and soon some murals began to appear on both sides of the stone wall. These murals were simple and ancient, and had a strong sense of age.
While Odis was still outside the stone gate, he shared the "invisible servant's" view with Bernadette and ordered the "invisible servant" to stop in front of the murals and take a closer look at them.
The murals depict scenes of demons ruling the human world.
The initial murals and the stone statues in the valley depicted a scene that was a glorious history for the demons, but a tragic world for humans.
Although Odis disdained the universal values prevalent in the northern and southern continents, he also found it difficult to imagine what a country with evil and depravity as its main values would be like.
As you continue looking, the murals gradually begin to depict demons battling other races, and then flags appear.
Those flags had three sides, some of which were in the shape of goat horns, a mystical symbol representing the devil in modern occultism.
Some are goat horns with pentagrams. When Odis was researching magic circles, he discovered that pentagram magic circles seemed to have been invaded by demons. Magic circles that summon demons are usually pentagrams.
A typical pentagram consists of a five-pointed star surrounded by a circle.
Write the name of the demon to be summoned inside the pentagram, preferably using demon script.
Draw corresponding directional symbols and mystical symbols between the pentagram and the circle to establish a mystical connection with the demon, and place sacrificial offerings or write down the offerings you are willing to provide in front of the pentagram.
The "directly in front" position differs depending on the family of demons being summoned. This is crucial; if the direction is confused, the summoner's position can easily become the position for placing offerings.
Write your request and respectful words on the outside of the circle, and you've completed a magic circle for summoning demons.
This is the simplest summoning circle. To summon a high-level demon, the circle needs to be much more complex. In addition to the pentagram and the circle, five smaller pentagrams need to be drawn. The positions of these five pentagrams, as well as the directional symbols and mystical symbols drawn around them, will also be different for each demon.
The outermost part of the magic circle still needs to be a circle.
Such a magic array can typically occupy the space of an ordinary bedroom.
Currently, the pentagram has become a symbol of demons, while the magic circles used by humans are mostly hexagrams, with hexagrams, octagons, and quintagons being used less frequently.
There is another flag, next to an evil face, with an unequal scale.
It represents a cunning demon that forces people to engage in unjust transactions willingly.
Odis guessed, "These three flags may represent three demon families."
During the Fourth Epoch, the three demon families operated as secret organizations in the Northern Continent.
Odis remembered that every empire had tried to win over these three demon families.
Because these three families represent three angels.
Bernadette slowly nodded, indicating her agreement with Odis's view.
She pondered for a moment, then asked, "Could those two 'Blood Dukes' from earlier be angels from the Andrerad and Belial families?"
By the fifth era, these two families had gradually become vassals of the Snow family, and their angels seemed to have vanished suddenly.
Odis once told Bernadette that when he was playing the role of a "wizard," he encountered members of the demon family and learned that all three demon families were now tormented by the curse of the "Demon King."
Bernadette's speculation was actually about whether the angels of these two families had been hiding here from the curse all along.
As for why this place can be a refuge from the curse, it may be because this place was once an important stronghold of the demon kingdom, and the environment is special.
It's also possible that the "Mother Tree of Desire" protects them here, helping them avoid the curse.
Odis said, "That guess is quite reasonable."
He directed the "invisible servant" to continue looking behind, and in the murals behind, the "invisible servant" saw a demon sitting on a throne with an evil smile.
That was Fabti, the "Demon King".
Although it was just an ordinary portrait, Odis and Bernadette could tell at a glance that it was Fabti!
Because "the true God is one," even an ordinary portrait can be transformed by the description of that God.
At this moment, Odis discovered that the "invisible servant" was growing ram horns on its head and bat wings on its back.
Just by glancing at the image of the "Demon King," weak creatures will begin the process of transforming into demons.
Odis quickly ended the summoning of the "invisible servant," forcibly halting its transformation into a demon.
Then Odis summoned another "invisible servant" to continue exploring ahead, but this time he dared not let it look at the murals, and just kept walking forward.
Currently, Odis controls the "invisible servants" at a distance of tens of kilometers, enough to circle the island without any problem.
Soon the "invisible servants" passed through the area where the murals were located, and the tall corridor came to an end. In front of the "invisible servants" appeared a spacious hall.
The hall was empty, with a row of ancient stone braziers on each side. The stone pillars supporting the braziers were carved with many mystical symbols that exuded an evil aura.
Inside the hall, there is a tall throne, seemingly prepared for giants.
There seemed to be a black object on the throne, but the "invisible servant" could not see what it was.
Odis was about to command the "invisible servant" to take a look when he suddenly discovered that the "invisible servant" had become "very hungry" and was devouring Odis's spirituality along its mystical connection with him.
Odis severed his connection with the "invisible servant" once more: "That hall seems to be polluted by the 'Mother Tree of Desire.'"
He paused for a moment and then said, "Apart from the unknown black object on the throne, there is no other danger inside."
"After we go inside, I will use the power granted to me by the Lord of Mysteries to create a shield that can effectively block the corruption of the Mother Tree of Desire."
Bernadette nodded, indicating that she would stay by his side.
After a brief preparation, the two immediately began their operation.
They hurried to the area of the murals and saw the one depicting the "Demon King".
As angels, they will not be affected by simply looking at the murals.
Odis noticed that there was a box on each side of the "Demon King's" chair in the mural.
One box had a curved goat horn carved on it, while the other was completely blank.
Bernadette also noticed the two boxes; the box next to the "Demon King" must be very important.
So they continued reading, but what followed was a description of the battle between demons and extraordinary beings, and the "Demon King" and the two boxes did not reappear.
The two had no choice but to continue walking forward, and arrived at the entrance of the spacious hall.
Odis "set up an array with a single thought," creating an illusory protective shield. Using himself as a medium, he carried the power of the "wilderness of knowledge," forming a protective array that could effectively prevent contamination from external gods.
Then, the two stepped into the hall.
As soon as they entered the hall, the protective magic circle reacted, with streaks of black appearing continuously on the transparent, illusory magic circle.
Odis said, "Besides the pollution of 'desire,' this hall is also filled with evil, filth, and depravity."
He looked toward the throne inside the hall: "The source of corruption and defilement is right there."
The protective array set up by Odis can effectively block these pollutants and their effects, so the two of them don't need to spend any energy fighting against them.
They didn't get a good look at what the thing on the throne looked like.
It seemed small, as if it were enveloped in a black mist.
Odis and Bernadette tacitly refrained from using their "Prying Eyes" to observe, and instead strode forward toward the throne.
When they reached roughly the center of the hall, Odis realized: "It's a box with goat horns carved on it!"
In the center of the throne was one of the boxes they had just seen in the mural.
The two looked at each other, both curious about what was inside the box.
Because their spirits did not sense any danger, the two continued forward and finally saw the box from which black mist was constantly billowing out.
Even with the high-level protective array created by Odis, they could still sense the aura of corruption and filth within the mist.
Odis drew the "Gus Staff" from his waist, extended it outside the protective magic circle, and used the staff to pry open the box.
Inside the box was a mass of black liquid that was slowly flowing. Although it seemed dangerous at first glance, Odis and Bernadette were immediately drawn to its allure. They had to concentrate to resist the urge to pick up the stone box and drink it.
Odis immediately realized: "This is a Sequence 1 property of the 'Demon' pathway!"
Within the "Demon King" are two Sequence 1 "Filthy King" traits of the "Demon" pathway, and a third Sequence 1...
Its unique characteristics seemed to have never appeared in the extraordinary world before, yet it was unexpected that it was also in the hands of the "Demon King".
But why is this trait present here? Why didn't those two "Blood Dukes" use this trait to advance their ranks?
Odis pondered for a moment before saying, "It's certain that this characteristic has been targeted by the 'Mother Tree of Desire'."
I suggest that it is safer to offer it as a sacrifice to the 'Lord of Mysteries'.
"No matter who controls it, it could be under the watchful eye of the 'Mother Tree of Desire.'"
Although there is a barrier between them, simply glancing at them will not cause them any contamination, but being targeted by an outer god is definitely not a good thing. The "Mother Tree of Desire" will surely try its best to corrupt them.
Bernadette had no objection: "Okay."
So Odis used the "Staff of Gus" to cover the box again, directly covering the entrance to the "Wilderland of Knowledge" with the characteristics of the "Defiled King," and placed it into the "Wilderland of Knowledge" in this way.
Then the filth and decadent influence in the hall disappeared, leaving only the pollution of the "Mother Tree of Desire".
Odis and Bernadette left without lingering and immediately closed the two massive stone doors.
To prevent the island's natives from opening the stone gate, Odis used witchcraft to blast open the mountains on both sides, causing a large amount of soil and rocks to slide down and completely cover the massive stone gate.
Then they returned to the "Dawn" and continued their voyage. The island indeed became farther and farther away, and they did not circle back. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Odis and Bernadette then discussed the gains from this battle.
Although the two are close, it's best to clarify ownership when it comes to Level 0 sealed artifacts.
First of all, the level 0 sealed artifact of the "Blood Duke" belongs to Odis, since Odis himself killed the "Blood Duke".
As for the "Filthy King" attribute of the Series 1 item, it was discovered through joint exploration by the two individuals.
However, Bernadette was of little use, and Odis had come to help her find her father and successfully sealed away Emperor Roselle, giving him an environment where he could remain clear-headed and no longer have to fight against pollution.
Therefore, Bernadette also relinquished her share of ownership.
Odis did not stand on ceremony, for his spiritual premonition was that this extraordinary quality would be of great use.
After distributing the spoils, Odis asked the question that had been bothering him: "In the mural, there are two boxes next to the 'Demon King.' The box with the goat horn symbol contains a description of the 'Filthy King's' characteristics."
"So what's in the other box?"
The other box had no markings at all.
After the two of them pondered it together, Bernadette said, "Could it be a Sequence 1 feature of the 'Prisoner' pathway?"
"I remember the mythical creature form of the 'Prisoner' pathway is nothingness, representing the source of all curses and spirits."
Odis was taken aback: "How come I remember the mythical creature from that path was a giant rag doll?"
He remembered Klein's messenger, who used the phrase "yesterday reappeared," describing a giant rag doll wrapped in vines and adorned with many strange occult symbols.
"That rag doll is just the outward appearance," Bernadette explained. "Or perhaps the giant rag doll is the angel's bondage and prison, and the spirit trapped inside this giant rag doll is the true mythical creature."
"I've heard that the mythical creatures of this path have certain differences in their outward appearance; each angel looks different."
Odis nodded, thinking to himself: Even though I have gained so much knowledge from the "wilderness of knowledge," there are still many ambiguities in my knowledge of the mystical.
This reminded him of what the Celestial Master had told him: only after becoming the "Emperor of Knowledge" could he obtain all the mystical knowledge in the "Wilderness of Knowledge," at which point he would be practically "omniscient."
But before that, there are still unknown aspects in the field of occultism.
Just as Odis thought of this, she felt her spirit become more active, and the mental shock and physical fatigue she had suffered in the battle vanished instantly.
Oddi immediately realized that he had just unintentionally performed a role.
Bernadette noticed Odis was in a daze and asked, "What's wrong?"
Odis paused for a moment before saying, "My potion has been partially digested."
He had completely digested the matter of the potion and it wasn't appropriate to tell anyone, so this was the only thing he could say.
Bernadette immediately said, "Then quickly summarize the rules of acting."
As a fellow "sage," Bernadette knew very well how difficult it was to digest the potion at the level of an angel.
Odis agreed and returned to his room, soon understanding what was going on: the "wise man" would admit his ignorance.
Although "wise men" appear to be intelligent, calm, and highly learned, able to foresee the future and always guide people in the right direction.
However, there are times when he is unfamiliar with certain areas, and he doesn't know everything.
At this point, the true "wise person" is one who dares to admit their ignorance.
Thinking of this, Odis couldn't help but smile wryly. It wasn't that he was arrogant, but rather that he was quite versatile in the field of mysticism.
In other words, the opportunities to play this role are very, very rare.
Taking a deep breath, a somewhat tired Odis lay down on the bed to rest for a while.
The spiritual and vibrant feeling he experienced today made him feel that he should take the initiative to act. Even though his humanity had an absolute advantage, acting would allow him to maintain an excellent state, which would be helpful for his future ascension and eventual godhood.
But we'll think about how to play the role later. For now, let's go to the "Knowledge Wilderness" and take a look at today's spoils.
Upon entering the "wilderness of knowledge," Odis was surprised to see the Celestial Master deep in thought, staring at the characteristics of the "filthy king."
Odis was taken aback, feeling somewhat uncomfortable, as if someone had trespassed on his private territory.
But upon reflection, I realized that I was the "intruder," since the Celestial Master had been "living" here for thousands of years.
He smiled and asked, "If you like it, I'll give it to you."
While the extraordinary properties of Sequence 1 can be used as a Level 0 seal item in certain situations, the negative effects are too strong. Most of the time, having Sequence 1 properties through another pathway will be a burden.
So if the Celestial Master really wanted it, he would indeed give it to him, but Odis would then "ask" the Celestial Master for a few more methods similar to the "Taoist Natural Mantra".
"It should have a greater purpose," the Celestial Master said. "Just leave it here in the 'wilderness of knowledge' for now. Perhaps it won't be long before someone comes to you asking for it."
Odis was taken aback: "Did you foresee something?"
"Prophecy is not omnipotent," the Celestial Master said. "Sometimes reasonable guesses are more convincing than prophecies."
"Moreover, one's own plans for the future are the best predictions."
Odis thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "That makes a lot of sense."
Then he asked, "Who do you think will come knocking? The 'Demon King'? Or the leader of the 'Rose School'?"
What plans have you made for the future?
The Celestial Master smiled at Odis, said nothing, and returned to the "Central Processing Unit".
Odis sighed helplessly: That charlatan really deserves a beating!
He glanced at the Sequence 1 item, then waved his hand, sending it floating to the shelf over there.
Then he looked at the level 0 sealed artifact. Using the "Wilderness of Knowledge" rank, Odis learned that the main abilities of this sealed artifact were: it could control the target's bodily fluids, causing the target's blood flow to accelerate or coagulate; by controlling the target's endocrine system, it could induce different desires in the target, and then detonate them; it could corrupt the target; it could control magma and manipulate fireballs with a sulfurous smell; and it could create a giant sword with the abilities of corruption and desire.
This made Odis sigh with relief, thankful that the Celestial Master had provided assistance beforehand; otherwise, the ability to create and then ignite desires alone would have made it difficult for Odis to guard against such a rule-breaking act.
The negative effects of the sealed artifact are: you will hear some words from the stars; holders below the angel level have a considerable chance of being corrupted, while holders of the angel level and above do not need to worry about this; it is difficult to suppress one's own desires, and with the increase of use, one will gradually indulge and go crazy, eventually losing all reason; once used, one will often hear a devouring word of unknown origin, which will make the holder involuntarily move closer to the abyss and begin to fall from the depths of their heart.
Odis frowned; the negative effects of this sealed artifact were rather strong.
These are all negative effects that are difficult to get rid of and avoid.
Especially the last negative effect: once used, one must constantly fight against corruption. Even if one gains the upper hand in corruption, it will greatly affect the state of an extraordinary being.
Odis then used the position of "wilderness of knowledge" to seal it accordingly.
After being promoted to angel, Odis can use the "Wilderness of Knowledge" to seal level 0 sealed items. After sealing, the negative effects of this level 0 sealed item, which is comparable to the "Blood Duke", are not significantly improved, but it has 1 minute of safe usage time.
As long as it is used for less than 1 minute, you will not suffer from those negative effects.
After each use, you need to rest for 3 hours before you can get another 1 minute of usage time.
For a level 0 sealed item, one minute is usually enough, because battles between angels rarely last too long.
Unless, like in tonight's battle, Odis gradually gained a huge advantage, allowing him to trap and kill his opponent.
Most of the time, the difference between angels is not significant, and the weaker party can always find a way to escape.
Finally, it came time for naming. Following naming conventions, Odis named the sealed object "Blood Necklace".
After putting the sealed artifact away, Odis returned to the real world and lay down on her bed to truly rest.
The next day, Odis noticed that Bernadette was in much better spirits.
Clearly, last night's battle was a good way for Bernadette to release her pent-up frustration.
So Odis decided to return to Azshara first. He had been away from Azshara for more than ten days and needed to go back for a meeting and make an appearance.
Bernadette, however, planned to stay on the ship for a few more days.
Odis returned to Azshara and immediately got to work, holding a small meeting with several key subordinates.
Then I arrived at the Remnburg Institute. A few days ago, in a letter from the director, Bivis, to Odis, he said that the institute had recently achieved results in many research projects. The tasks that Odis had assigned were now being completed in batches, as if they had been sprayed out simultaneously.
Led by Bevis, Odis first visited several civilian projects, including several prototypes of the spirit-driven car that had already been manufactured.
According to Odis's idea, among the prototypes were buses, large and small trucks, and private cars.
Odis was very satisfied with the prototype. It not only met his requirements but also matched Remenberg's aesthetic and had the characteristics of the era.
Afterwards, he visited several civilian projects. Although they were slightly different from Odis's impressions, he did not point them out. After all, these were "extraordinary technologies" powered by spiritual energy, unlike the electrical appliances he was familiar with.
Finally, Bivis led Odis to the mountaintop next to the research institute. Odis saw two objects, one large and one small, parked on a hardened ground the size of a football field. They looked like airplanes, but they were different from the airplanes Odis was familiar with.
They had wings and tails, but not as long as Odis remembered; their bellies looked rather large.
Bivis smiled and said, "Based on the aerodynamic data you provided, we have built two prototypes."
"The smaller one is equipped with a 'Smart Cube,' which can be given specific commands to destroy enemy targets within 300 kilometers on its own, and can also carry out reconnaissance missions."
"Its primary means of attack is 'extraordinary bombs,' and it can carry around sixty at a time, enough to destroy a not-so-long street."
Odis exclaimed, "Drones!"
He never imagined that drones would be the first technology to be developed!
However, Odis immediately realized that this was not surprising, since he had invented the "Smart Cube" long ago, and developing drones was a natural progression.
In other words, it's not scientific, but it's very mystical.
Bivis paused for a moment, then asked, "Wh-what?"
"It's nothing," Odis said immediately. "Have you simulated a confrontation between this aircraft and an Extraordinary Being?"
"Yes," Bivis said. "No extraordinary beings below the level of demigod can do anything about it. Even extraordinary beings who can 'teleport' or fly cannot control it."
"Because its flight altitude is generally several hundred meters, while the attack range of the extraordinary abilities of a Sequence 5 level extraordinary person is basically only a dozen meters."
"Moreover, its flight speed is extremely fast; you can't catch up with it even if you use Flash or fly."
"But if we were to fight against a demigod-level extraordinary being, we would have little chance of winning."
Odis nodded: "That's already very good."
He created these things not to fight against the demigods of the enemy, but to destroy the will to resist of the ordinary people of the enemy.
Demigods still need to be dealt with by demigods.
Odis then looked at the large airplane next to him.
Bivis continued, "This is a six-seat aircraft we manufactured, also piloted by the 'Smart Cube.' If seats are installed, it can carry six adults; if the seats are removed, it can be fully loaded with ammunition."
Odis thought to himself: This sounds very dangerous, as if they might drop the passengers like bombs at any moment.
Bivis continued, "This aircraft can fly at an altitude of 8,000 to 10,000 meters. At this altitude, it can completely evade the detection and tracking of most of the saints' spiritual beings. It has a strong penetration capability and can destroy military targets in the enemy's rear."
Odis was quite satisfied with this, then he glanced at the open space around him: "Where's the runway?"
Bivis was taken aback again: "What runway?"
How did he fly?
"Of course, we'll use the levitation array and anti-gravity array you provided," Bivis said.
Odis smiled: "Vertical takeoff and landing, huh!"
