?Chapter 1148: 357. Death Steel Intervention
The Assassin Angel sought an opportunity to annihte the Death Steel Assault Team, but Nnd Lee was focused on something slightly different.
Nnd Lee was more concerned about how the Death Steel Assault Team had entered the Inner Cosmos.
A hundred people in size—neitherrge nor small.
Transporting this team of a hundred through opening an Outer Space Gap would inevitably be detected by the Mass Wizard Tombs.
And if the Outer Space Gap was not opened, what other method could there be to deploy such a scale of Death Steel Assault Team into the Inner Cosmos?
In this, there definitelyy a method of “smuggling” unknown to Nnd Lee. <div>
...
Nnd handed this issue over to the Assassin Angel, who easily cracked the origin problem of the Death Steel Assault Team.
“The controllers of the Star Filtering Net are Gilenz and Selent. With their disappearance, the White Ancestral Dragon could only control a group of wizards to operate the Mass Wizard Tombs, barely managing the Star Filtering Net.”
The Assassin Angel exined:
“As long as the individual crossing the Star Filtering Net is small enough andcks any life signs, they can fool the Mass Wizard Tombs and the White Ancestral Dragon to get into the Inner Cosmos. The numerous instances of Star Stone Level extraterrestrial space pollution you’ve heard about entered the Inner Cosmos in this way.”
Nnd nced at a Death Steel Assault Soldier waiting to be infused with Soul Energy, understanding the situation:
“So when these Death Steel Assault Soldiers entered the Inner Cosmos, they were all in an inoperative state, absolutely dead material. Once on the ground, they regain the ability to move by acquiring Soul Energy with the help of the Hand of Undead Cult. Is that right?”
The Assassin Angel said:
“Exactly. This method of entry into the Inner Cosmos is very risky because it involves oveing the physical effects of ck holes. I estimate that the Ghost City of the Dead World deployed thousands of assault teams into the Inner Cosmos, and only one made it sessfully.”
Suddenly curious, Nnd asked:
“Entering the Inner Cosmos from Outer Space, isn’t there a change in time?”
“No need.” The Assassin Angel gave an example:
“It’s like you touching a fossil from a million years ago. Will you turn into what you were a million years ago just because you touched something that has experienced a million years? Of course not. Simrly, when a creature from Outer Space enters the Inner Cosmos, it’s the same principle.”
Nnd slowly nodded, no longer puzzled.
During their conversation, the Stitched Doctor ced the Death Steel Assault Soldier inside a circr ritual array, arranging them around a C-ss Death Steel Soldier Commander in a circle.
The Magic Chain that conducted Soul Energy was pulled out of the Energy Pipeline by the Stitched Doctor and tethered to the body of the Death Steel Assault Soldier.
Each Death Steel Assault Soldier was bound by a Magic Chain, and the C-ss Death Steel Soldier Commander had a total of five.
Nnd examined with his Deconstruction Technique and saw that the energy flow rate of a single Magic Chain was 300 points per minute.
The 101 visitors from Death Steel, with just a simple minute of absorbing Soul Energy, would amount to a massive sum of 31,500 Soul Energy points.
Comparing the Death Steel Assault Soldiers to gold-devouring beasts was not an exaggeration.
“It seems that the Ghost City of the Dead World’s Death Steel Soldiers require a substantial amount of Soul Energy as a power source”, Nnd remarked and then asked:
“Does the Ghost City of the Dead World have that much Soul Energy avable to power the Death Steel Soldiers?”
The Assassin Angel responded:
“Soul Energy is merely used as a driving power. Once Death Steel Soldiers are activated, the ‘Death Encoder’ inside them starts working, continuously producing Moth World Energy instead of Soul Energy.”
“Moth World Energy?” Nnd asked:
“What is that?”
The Assassin Angel exined:
“In the universe outside of magic in extraterrestrial space, it’s considered a highly radioactive energy, used only by Death Steel Soldiers unafraid of death. In the Inner Cosmos, however, it likely trantes into high-density Death Energy. When the ‘Wizard’ ne Core enters Outer Space, the Ghost City of the Dead World will certainly target this core. Magic’s application to Death Energy is far more diverse and superior than what the Ghost City of the Dead World can achieve on its own. By invading, enving the ‘Wizard’ ne Core under the Outer Space forces, the Ghost City of the Dead World will be able to decode the Death Magic Blueprints, thereby gaining stronger power.”
pping his hands lightly, Nnd said:
“Then, it makes sense that Ghost City of the Dead World chose the Undead Cult as a coborator in the Inner Cosmos, also preparing to plunder the ‘Wizard’ ne Core in the future.”
“Yes.”
“Buzz—”
The noise of surging energy interrupted the conversation between Nnd Lee and the Assassin Angel.
The grey Soul Energy flowed from the pipeline, traveling along the Magic Chains to the bodies of the Death Steel Assault Soldiers, merging into them.
The Death Steel Assault Soldiers soaked up the Soul Energy like sponges, seemingly endlessly.
The C-ss soldier was even more exaggerated.
An enormous grey vortex over three meters in diameter formed around it, ferociously swallowing Soul Energy like a storm.
The flickering grey light suggested that it wouldn’t be ending any moment soon.
“Wait a bit longer, no rush to make a move.” The Assassin Angel said:
“Once the Death Steel Soldier Commander is fully operational, I’ll use the ‘Veil of Different Worlds’ to control them. You take the chance to open the crown on the Death Steel Soldier Commander’s head and find the ‘Death Protocol’ inside. It’s a hollowed-out Metal Magic Cube, you can’t miss it.”
“Alright.” Nnd nodded in response.
After quietly waiting about 5 minutes,
the energy pulsing throughout the Magic Chain began to lessen, and the grey light gradually faded.
