The Great Demon Lord of the American Comics World

Chapter 47, Weapon Forging

After midnight.

Selena changed into her classic black outfit and reluctantly kissed Li Xingzhou goodbye.

She intends to return to the Victor clan and carry out Li Xingzhou's revenge plan.

Li Xingzhou also needs to make some preparations for this.

For example, find a suitable ambush location and set up some targeted traps.

For example, find a more suitable, secluded space to house prisoners.

In addition, he also needs to find the whereabouts of Alexander Corvinus—which might be solved by spending money?
The hotels in mainland China are located all over the world, and the high table behind them is a joint construction project of twelve large international groups.

Given the power of the Continental Hotel and the forces behind it, even though Alexander Kovinus is a man of considerable influence and adept at hiding, finding him shouldn't be too difficult as long as the money is right.

So the next morning, after giving Craven his second "trial," Li Xingzhou called the Continental Hotel and, after confirming that as a hotel assassin, he could also offer a bounty, generously offered a million dollars for Alexander's whereabouts.

It's just a reward for finding someone, not murder, so a million dollars is already a huge sum.

Then he began to prepare to set up the trap.

“Dimmon, have you found out His Excellency the Supreme Court’s address? Not yet? Alright, I’m not in a hurry, you can take your time. Also, are you familiar with the abandoned subway tunnels in New York? Hmm? You have a safe house somewhere in an abandoned tunnel in Brooklyn? Great, I need to temporarily requisition your safe house…”

After finishing his phone call with his father, Li Xingzhou went out to buy some tools, preparing to make the props himself.

The curse the werewolf cast on Selena was very effective.

While not fatal to vampires, it can continuously weaken their physical strength and energy, making it perfect for capturing prisoners alive.

Li Xingzhou has completely deciphered the structure of the curse and deduced a method to transform it into a talisman.

Now, he plans to create some props engraved with runes and then power them with the mutated hellish power within the bearded wolf's body.

Of course, such simple and low-level talismans can only last for about three days after being charged. After that time, the energy of the talisman will dissipate on its own and lose its effect.

Therefore, for the time being, Li Xingzhou only needs to make the props with the inscriptions.

He'll have to wait for Selena to send him a signal that he's ready to act before he can recharge.

That works out perfectly.

The bearded werewolf had just eaten one of his "Heavenly Demon Flesh-Eating" attacks yesterday, and was now as thin as a skeleton. Even with the werewolf's recovery ability, and even if Li Xingzhou bought hundreds of kilograms of top-quality beef to treat him, it would probably take him several days to recover.

Li Xingzhou was busy until evening before he finally stopped.

He looked at the hundreds of bullets neatly arranged on the table, their tips engraved with tiny runes, and then at the other tools similarly engraved with runes, such as steel needles, daggers, swords, animal traps, and hunting nets. He nodded in satisfaction.
"Whether dealing with werewolves or vampires, this should be enough..."

After stretching and loosening his muscles, Li Xingzhou went outside to heat up a pizza to fill his stomach. He then went to the basement to offer his condolences and comfort to the bearded werewolf and the vampire Craven. After that, Li Xingzhou began to prepare the corpses of the five werewolves.

He originally wanted to turn them into zombies, but considering that he did not yet have any magic power and that he needed to borrow power to make puppets, he finally decided to turn them into skeletal artifacts.

Skeleton artifacts are relatively easier to forge, require slightly less power, and are easier to control than zombies, making them more suitable for Li Xingzhou in his current state.

So Li Xingzhou picked up a silver-plated knife and began skinning and dismembering the werewolf's corpse, turning the cell into a slaughterhouse...

Li Xingzhou possessed a powerful primordial spirit and seemingly inexhaustible energy. His physical abilities, honed through continuous enhancement, included considerable self-healing capacity and exceptional endurance, allowing him to work tirelessly through the night. His work efficiency was also extremely high; he completed the preliminary preparations for crafting the skeletal warrior in just one night.

The next step is the more important "empowerment" process.

next morning.

Li Xingzhou took a shower, then used his inner energy to vibrate his entire body to thoroughly remove the bloody smell. After having breakfast, he called Iliana.

The call connected quickly, and Iriana's deliberately cold voice rang out:
"what's up?"

"Good morning, Iriana. I need to go to the Limbo. Could you give me a ride?"

Iriana asked curiously, "What are you going to the border of hell for?"

"Let's make something," Li Xingzhou said with a smile. "I want to forge a skeletal warrior, which requires the power of hell..."

In fact, if the goal is simply to make the werewolf skeleton stand up and move around, that can be done in the real world.

After all, the laws of this world are relatively lenient, and there is no shortage of spiritual energy in the present world.

However, no matter how lenient the laws of reality are, a certain balance exists in the stable material world.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth, or extraordinary elements, not only has a low activity level, but also various extraordinary elements of different attributes are intertwined and mixed together, with no single attribute element standing out in any particular way.

That is why Iriana can only unleash her full power in the Hell dimension.

In reality, limited by energy attributes and compatibility, her strength is much weaker than it is in the Hell Dimension.

If Li Xingzhou wanted to create skeletal warriors in the present world, he would have to expend a great deal of effort to extract the negative energies, such as the Yin Sha and death energy, from the mixed spiritual energy of heaven and earth to create the skeletal warriors.

With his current cultivation level, this is clearly too much of a burden, and too time-consuming and energy-draining.

Therefore, Hell, where supernatural energy is more active and attributes are relatively singular, is more suitable for crafting magical artifacts like skeletal warriors.

"Skeleton warriors? You can't be skeleton soldiers, can you? You used and even devoured the power of demons before, and now you're borrowing the power of hell and creating skeleton soldiers. You're going further and further down the path of evil... So you actually want to become a great demon and compete with me for the title of Lord of Hell, right?"

Li Xingzhou patiently explained:

"First, I didn't use human bones to create them, but rather werewolf bones. Second, although skeletal warriors may seem evil, as long as I use them for a just cause, they become allies of justice..."

“You bastard, you always have this kind of twisted logic… I think you’ll fall into demonhood sooner or later, so I’ve prepared the worst cell for you in my hell prison. Once you’ve completely fallen, I’ll personally drag you down to hell.”

Listening to Iriana's routine threats, Li Xingzhou chuckled:

"Fine, you'll drag me to hell with your own hands, but I haven't become a demon yet, have I? Anyway, I need your help now, beautiful and powerful Queen of Hell, Iriana. I wonder if you can grant me this little wish?"

Iliana remained silent for a moment, but finally agreed:
"Get the wine ready, I'll be right there."

A pleased smile appeared on Li Xingzhou's lips:

"No problem, the good wine is ready. Also, I'm not at the Dream Bar right now, but at my own home, specifically at..."
