Don’t raise unruly people in extreme cold weather

Chapter 454 God-killing Armor
"You ran back to Chernobog from the imperial capital just for this?" Wei'er looked at the design drawings that Perfectcot took out, and the expression on her face revealed an indescribable shock.

Of course, Perfecto returned to the North not just to deal with those unimportant government affairs.

Her real purpose was to prepare for possible divine intervention from the heretical sects in Langton.

Perfect didn't know about this before, so her focus in dealing with this doomsday disaster was on how to resist the natural disasters and the harsh environment of extreme cold.

But now that she knew that this apocalyptic disaster was the result of the planning of the old gods thousands of years ago, she had to do something about it.

At the very least, when those heretical sects attempt to descend upon the world from the gods, she will have enough backup to fight back the descending gods instead of just watching them destroy the world.

As for how to deal with the God's Descent, after carefully consulting all parties who could make suggestions, Perfecto finally decided to design a new steam knight armor.

This set of Steam Knight armor was prepared to deal with the arrival of God. Perfect gave it the temporary code name of God-killing Armor.

This naming method, which is almost like writing blasphemy on one's face, naturally shocked Wei'er, who is a traditional old-fashioned person. After all, she still has a certain awe for the gods.

But soon, a surge of excitement from the bottom of her heart surged out, making Wei'er's body tremble.

After all, Wei'er is also an alchemist. Pursuing truth and challenging limits are what an alchemist should pursue.

God? It is just a powerful existence that can be analyzed.

For alchemists, if they can analyze it, they can reproduce it.

Although Perfect is not trying to recreate a god at the moment, the design goal of killing gods makes this set of armor seem to be a challenge to the limit in Wei'er's opinion.

How could this not make Wei'er, who had also reached this level, excited?

You have to know that the disaster they caused back then was largely their attempt to recreate a god.

But they failed and paid a heavy price. Now someone wants to challenge the realm of God again and is aiming to kill God. You can imagine how excited Wei'er is.

"Yes, the God-killing Armor. This is why I came back this time. I need your help, and I need your full help." Perficot nodded, and then put forward his own conditions to Wei'er: "If you help me achieve it, I can help you remove the curse on your body, restore your legendary strength, and even build a set of God-killing Armor for you."

After hearing the conditions offered by Perfectcot, Weier wanted to agree to her request immediately, but she calmed down in an instant, looked at Perfectcot seriously, and then thought carefully before asking, "Remove the curse for me, restore my legendary strength, and build me a set of God-killing armor. You are not expecting me to help you kill gods, are you?"

"The power of the God-killing Armor can only be exerted to its maximum extent in the hands of a legend. Or let me put it another way, only a legend can control the God-killing Armor. Do you understand what I mean?" Of course, Perfect could understand why Wei'er asked this, so she stated her meaning directly.

However, Wei Er immediately shook her head and hastily refused: "If you let me help you develop the God-killing Armor, that's fine! I'm an alchemist, and I have no problem declining this kind of research project that challenges the gods!
But, you expect me to help you kill gods while wearing this? That's just wishful thinking. I'm not a fighter! No way, no way!"

Wei'er said this while waving her hands, looking helpless. She wasn't lying or shirking responsibility, but she really wasn't good at fighting.

Alchemists like Perfecto are the real oddities. How many normal alchemists can apply alchemy in combat?
Everyone prepares some alchemical potions or alchemical props, or even puppets and the like, in advance, and takes them out to defend against the enemy when others attack.

So from another perspective, for alchemists, fighting is just throwing money at people. After all, the props or potions that alchemists can use for combat can all be sold at sky-high prices for ordinary people.

"I'll help you embed a philosopher's stone on your God-killing armor." Although Perfectcot didn't insist on having Wei'er join, Wei'er was the easiest one to win over among the legendary beings she knew and could trust, so she tried her best to offer conditions to win her over.

Faced with the conditions offered by Perfectcot, Wei hesitated.

She had studied the Philosopher's Stone in the past, but the threshold for refining this thing was too high. Even Wei'er only understood a few aspects of it back then, and she was not sure about refining it.

Later, because all their energy was devoted to the planning of these old guys, the research on the Philosopher's Stone was delayed.

After their plan failed and she was cursed, Wei'er re-studied the Philosopher's Stone, trying to use it to break her own curse.

However, progress has been slow and no breakthrough has been achieved.

Of course, this also has a lot to do with the fact that after she was cursed, her body regressed to her childhood and she has been lacking energy for many years.

But right now, for her, if she could get a philosopher's stone, or even just watch how Perfectcott refined the philosopher's stone, it would be a great temptation for her.

After all, for alchemists all over the world, refining the Philosopher's Stone is a huge temptation that is enough to make them give up all their principles.

So after some hesitation, Wei Er said, "I want to learn the technique to refine the Philosopher's Stone."

"I can let you watch the entire refining process and answer your questions, but the specific technology..." Perfect shook his head and refused: "It's not that I don't want to give it away, but this is my parents' inheritance. I can't give it to anyone easily."

"I understand that knowledge is priceless. If it is your parents' inheritance, it is indeed not appropriate to give it away casually." Wei'er did not force it. Perfectcot allowed her to watch the refining process and ask questions, which was enough for her.

After all, Wei'er also has the self-esteem and pride of a legendary alchemist. If she can't grasp the tricks and key points under such conditions, it will be of no avail even if Perfectcot puts the relevant materials in front of her and teaches her step by step.

Although it is true that knowledge related to alchemy can be easier to master with a teacher, it is a waste of time if you can't even understand it.

So Wei'er quickly gathered herself together and asked Perfect, "Where do we start?"
