Necromancer: Becoming a God from a Lord

Chapter 192 Pangolin Project

At dawn, Harvey, surrounded by a dozen blood warriors and close guards, rode on a huge mammoth war beast and left from the south gate, heading for the junction of the northern slope of Jackdaw Ridge and the mountains south of Pioneer Territory.

The dense and rugged primitive forest along the way had been cut down and cleared on a large scale. With the construction department working day and night, a concrete gravel road was built to the foot of the mountain, which was enough for three giant war beasts to travel side by side.

Near the cliff at the foot of the mountain, a high concrete wall with barbed wire appeared in front of everyone. It surrounded and closed a steep cliff. There were tall wooden sentry towers on the three corners of the wall. Several defense soldiers stood on them and kept looking far away for warning. Several soldiers were also arranged to patrol intensively outside the high wall.

The defense measures here are comparable to the core area of ​​the lord's castle where Harvey lives, and even stricter than the magic military factory that requires strict confidentiality.

Harvey stepped down from the war beast and walked into the open iron gate under the salutes of the soldiers and officers.

The scene inside the high wall immediately made the people who followed him couldn't help but exclaim in amazement - on the surrounded cliff, there appeared a huge hole with concrete reinforced edges, the height and width were infinitely close, and the diameter was more than five meters.

A huge iron gate slowly rose under the pull of the hoisting alchemy beast. This was a heavy metal gate that Harvey asked the iron foundry and the steel mill to spend half a month to cast together. In order to build this secret base, Harvey almost consumed the iron ore output of the territory mine for a whole month.

A group of people embraced Harvey and walked into the cave, and the light inside instantly dimmed a lot.

Several blood warriors who were responsible for leading the way immediately took out the light magic stone, fixed it with a metal bracket, and held it high to illuminate the way for the lord.

"Sir, after you pulled the half-dead macrophagium worm here, did you conduct the soul transformation experiment of alchemical life? Did it really succeed?" Reiner asked in a puzzled voice as he walked.

Harvey nodded, and his voice echoed faintly in the empty mountain space, "Yes, that thing is too large to be transformed in the underground laboratory of the castle, and its alchemical carrier... is also specially made, and it needs to be completed here."

Asdalen also followed Harvey and sighed softly: "Even after seeing the sketch drawn by the lord himself, I still can't imagine what form of alchemical life can be transformed into a giant life form like a macrophagium worm that has existed since ancient times..."

After a short conversation, everyone gradually walked to the bright area in front.

It was a huge cave inside the mountain that seemed to be naturally formed. In addition to the ground being flattened and hardened, the top of the cave and the surrounding mountain walls remained as they were, with several long stalactites hanging above, and occasionally some water stains dripping.

This cave, which is about the size of two or three football fields, can only be illuminated by a large number of magic stones hanging everywhere. Without natural light and ventilation facilities, it seems a bit stuffy and depressing.

But everyone's attention is not on observing the structure of the underground cave, but all locked on the giant alchemical instrument in the center of the open space, which is so huge that it is a bit scary.

Harvey walked to the giant instrument with a smile and stood still. His height of less than 1.8 meters can only reach one-third of the height of the instrument, making him look like a skinny antelope standing next to a giant mammoth.

"Seven meters high, thirty-five meters long, six meters in diameter... This is the soul carrier of the macrophagous worm. Now I name it - the magic shield machine!"

Chris, who was responsible for assisting Harvey in completing this important transformation experiment, witnessed and participated in it for the first time. Although he had completed the transformation experiment for more than a week, he was still very excited. Looking at this huge alchemical creation like a prehistoric beast, his eyes were slightly red and his body was shaking.

"A great creation comparable to the creation of life, a genius experimental creation and alchemical theory... Your soul transformation experiment is many times better than those genius alchemists in the Exploration Club who are obsessed with the delusion of artificial gods all day long!"

Everyone dispersed, looking back and forth around this huge alchemical beast, and kept exclaiming.

The whole body of the magic shield machine is covered with extremely thick metal armor. Through the cracks of the tightly welded parts, it can be observed that the interior is also assembled with precise alchemical parts and metal structures. Most of the enchanted metals are densely engraved with countless energy-driven inscriptions.

The head of the shield machine is particularly peculiar. It is composed of a giant cone-shaped metal creation. The surface is covered with thread-shaped grooves. The entire cone shines with a dark golden luster under the background of the illuminated magic stone.

Asdalen was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked: "My lord, is the head of this giant beast made of the unique metal mineral from the demon race - phantom copper, which is cast as a whole?"

He still vaguely remembered that in the previous battle with the evil orcs in the valley, the territory army seized a batch of rare magic minerals weighing two or three hundred kilograms and worth at least 100,000 gold pounds, which was phantom copper.

Harvey chuckled, turned his head and glanced at Chris, indicating that he should explain the problem.

Chris grabbed the collar of his robe and replied with a painful look on his face: "This is the decision made by the Lord... He insisted on using such expensive and rare magic materials to cast the head of this shield machine, but the effect is very significant. After the giant beast was activated, the super magic conductivity of the head phantom copper material greatly improved its soul's innate ability to detect minerals. The cave inside the mountain was actually sensed and discovered by it..."

Reiner keenly discovered a problem from Chris's words and asked in disbelief: "Activate? How much magic power is needed to activate such a large alchemy beast? I'm afraid that only the planetary energy gathering array assembled by the Lord himself in the territory can output such a huge amount of energy to charge it?"

The territory currently has only three continental energy gathering arrays, which are installed in the magic military factory to be responsible for the transformation and charging of alchemy beasts. At the same time, they also need to bear the production line of magic guns and magic bullets. The energy supply is already at full capacity.

As for the planetary energy-gathering array, it needs to be responsible for the smooth operation of the magic network caster forum and the energy supply of several large magic network transmission arrays. It cannot be easily moved to other places. Even the daily charging of Asdalen and Reiner needs to be completed in the castle area covered by its energy network.

Harvey had expected Reiner and his friends to ask such questions. With a smile, he asked the alchemy apprentices under Chris to go to the other side of the cave and uncover all the alchemy instruments covered with tent cloths and expose them to everyone.

"Remember the blood-summoning instrument of the demon clan and the injection experiment of the magic potion?"

Harvey pointed to dozens of neatly arranged new instruments that were very similar in shape to the blood-summoning instrument, but were obviously several times larger. "I asked Chris to dismantle the original instrument and reproduce this batch of enhanced models, which are used to convert the pure solid magic energy rich in the energy-absorbing beetle into high-concentration liquid magic energy and inject it into the magic power engine in this shield machine, which can perfectly activate it..."

No mistakes in one song, one post, one content, one 6, one book, one forum!

Asdalen asked in confusion: "The blood-summoning instrument needs the flesh and blood of magic creatures to transform and prepare magic potions. Where do we get these materials? There are no traces of magic creatures around the territory..."

Chris laughed, "Oh, don't you forget that the huge body left behind after the transformation of the soul of this giant worm is the best flesh and blood material for magic creatures, right?"

What a good way to produce and sell by yourself, taking from living worms and using them in worm alchemy beasts...

Everyone was immediately silenced by this crazy experimental operation.

Harvey clapped his hands to let everyone turn their attention back to him, and said seriously: "Next, I will launch an operation called the Pangolin Plan..."

Form a mineral exploration team composed of blood warriors and alchemy apprentices, and under the guidance and leadership of this giant worm alchemy beast, conduct deep excavation and drilling along the mountain of Jackdaw Ridge to find all high-value rare minerals.

This plan was a strong idea that Harvey had after accidentally seeing a historical research paper in the ancient documents uploaded by the Federation to the Magic Encyclopedia.

The article used detailed historical materials and decades of exploration data to try to prove a terrible conjecture - all the magic stone deposits in the entire southern border countries originated from the God's Spine Mountains that span the middle of the entire continent.

And deep underground in the God's Spine Mountains, there is a high probability that there is one or more magic stone vein cores!
