This martial saint's health bar is too thick

Chapter 681 Ragnarok
The experimental base for steel casting is guarded every five steps.

The seven kingdoms of the Western Continent all stationed soldiers and strongmen here.

Van der Weber passed through layers of security and entered the experimental base building.

He is a renowned 'Master of Extraordinary Body Refinement' in the Kingdom of Deni.

The extraordinary abilities of the Western Continent differ from those of the Eastern Continent, originating entirely from the awakening of bloodlines.

Therefore, the extraordinary abilities of the Western Continent are passed down through bloodlines, not through any particular cultivation method.

This leads to the vast majority of extraordinary individuals' understanding and knowledge of their extraordinary abilities remaining at the level of knowing what they are but not why they are.

A further problem is the lack of means to utilize supernatural powers.

In the Eastern Continent, there are all kinds of magical artifacts, formations, and even military formations and evil weapons. They have even developed to the point where they can "create the laws of nature" through military formations!

This is something that can only be done after having a fundamental understanding of extraordinary power.

Xilu is far behind in this respect.

However, it's not that no one in the Western Continent has tried to fundamentally deconstruct extraordinary power.

Extraordinary body refiners are such a type of person.

Initially, the corpses of superhumans were dissected, refined, and their materials extracted to eventually create artifacts with superhuman powers.

Later, it gradually developed to the point of using living people for alchemy.
In the Western Continent, those with extraordinary abilities are all nobles, so the practice of extraordinary body tempering and forging was quickly classified as a top-level forbidden activity and banned by various countries!
While countries outwardly prohibit the forging of extraordinary bodies, they secretly arrange for people to continue the research.

Some tools, weapons, armor and so on with extraordinary power can often fetch astronomical prices in private transactions among nobles.

Until thirty-one years ago, the Western Allied Forces crossed the sea to the Eastern Continent and invaded the Great Blue Dynasty.

In this battle, the allied forces ultimately suffered a crushing defeat.

This battle not only made the seven kingdoms of the Western Continent realize that there is a peak power above the prince level, but also made them realize that there is a huge gap between them and the Eastern Continent in the application of extraordinary power!
The Great Blue Dynasty was still in the era of cold weapons in terms of technology, and the seven kingdoms of the Western Continent were also still in the 'cold weapon era' in their use of extraordinary power.

Therefore, when the Great Blue Dynasty began to vigorously learn from the technology of the Western Continent and carried out the Ming and New Reforms, the seven kingdoms of the Western Continent also launched a 'reform'—

Various countries have lifted the ban on the forging of extraordinary body refinement techniques and published clear laws that restrict such techniques, prohibiting any actions that cross the line.

Then, while trying to obtain various cultivation techniques and secret manuals from the Eastern Continent, all countries vigorously developed extraordinary body tempering and forging.

The Western Continent lacks exotic beasts, which greatly limits the development of cultivation. Even if there are cultivation techniques, it is difficult to obtain cultivation resources.

Moreover, the differences in language, writing system, and culture between the Eastern and Western continents mean that many cultivation manuals are difficult to truly understand.

Therefore, the seven kingdoms of the Western Continent focused their efforts on cultivating extraordinary body refinement.

The past thirty-one years have undoubtedly been a golden age for all extraordinary body refiners!

It was during this period that Vander Weber rose to prominence and shone brightly, eventually being hired by the royal family of Denis as their royal master craftsman.

He entered the laboratory building, took the elevator down to the third basement level, and after passing through three security checkpoints and identity verification, finally entered the core area—

Inside the factory, a huge mechanical device connected to the ceiling is placed in the central area, looking like a cylindrical chimney.

Dozens of researchers were busy with their own tasks, but upon seeing Vander Weber, they all stopped and bowed in respect.

Vander Weber was one of the two group leaders of the Ragnarok experiment and a core member of the project.

Without his idea, there would be no Ragnarok.

"Team Leader Weber."

A middle-aged man with a thick beard, glasses, and dark skin walked up to Vander Weber, his face filled with barely concealed anger.

"Why did you arbitrarily alter my plan?!"

Van der Weber looked at the other person with arrogance.

Massimo Calvin, another leader of the Ragnarok experiment, is a Megan and the most outstanding atomic energy expert in the entire Western Continent.

Vander Weber provided the supernatural technical support for Ragnarok, while Massimo Calvin was responsible for providing the physical technical support.

As a master of extraordinary body forging, Vander Weber is of course an extraordinary being, and a Marquis-level powerhouse (martial arts master).

Massimo Calvin, despite his renowned reputation in the scientific field, was just an ordinary person.

Although the Kingdom of Mega had granted Massimo Calvin the title of honorary marquis, to Vander Weber, the other was still just a lowly 'flatblood' who was not qualified to be on equal footing with him, a true nobleman.

“Calvin, watch your words.”

Van der Weber raised his chin and said dismissively.

But Massimo Calvin's anger did not subside; he questioned the matter without fear:
"Why did you tamper with my plan? Don't you know that changing any data could affect the final result? It could even endanger all of us!"

The argument between the two attracted the attention of everyone present, and everyone turned to look.

Vander Weber's face darkened, and he poked Massimo Calvin in the chest without any hesitation:
"Then let me tell you, you piece of trash who knows nothing about supernatural powers, that Ragnarok's target is a group of powerful beings who possess the highest level of power in this world. These people are faster than bullets! No matter how powerful that piece of scrap metal you created is, it's impossible for it to hit the target!"

"I must ensure that Ragnarok possesses sufficiently powerful stealth and long-range control capabilities, as well as an extremely long firing range! Only in this way can the Allied Forces' strategic objectives be achieved, understand?"

Massimo Calvin, his face flushed, retorted without backing down:

"The Allied Forces' strategic objective is to destroy that convoy, not to kill those powerful individuals! The bombs I created are enough to destroy that convoy a hundred times over! But your alteration might cause the bombs to detonate prematurely, killing us all a hundred times over!"

van der Weber sneered:

"So, you're just a piece of trash who knows nothing about supernatural abilities!"

"The extraordinary world is full of powerful individuals with danger perception abilities. If your bomb isn't concealed, it could be detected and intercepted from thousands of meters away!"

"Detonating thousands of meters away prematurely, the power of such an explosion is simply insufficient to penetrate the protection of those powerful figures, and it won't harm the enemy fleet in the slightest!"

Massimo Calvin clenched his fists, refusing to budge an inch.

In fact, the two had similar arguments more than once:

"All I know is that if you don't follow my plan, even if you successfully deliver the bomb to the enemy, you won't kill a single person!"

Van der Weber completely lost his patience; if it weren't for the fact that the other party was from the country of Mega, he would have already taken action.

"enough."

A deep voice sounded.

Gato Leonard, dressed in military uniform, strode in.

"Your Majesty the Duke!"

Everyone present bowed their heads in respect, including Vander Weber.

Gato Leonard walked step by step to the two team leaders. His imposing presence, as majestic as a mountain and the sea, made Massimo Calvin turn pale and sway precariously.

"Massimo Calvin, watch your words."

"Yes, Your Grace, it was my rudeness!"

"Vander Weber".

"Your Majesty the Duke."

"You must obtain Massimo Calvin's approval before you revise the plan. Our enemy is fast approaching, and this operation cannot afford any mistakes!"

"Yes, Your Majesty the Duke!"

After reprimanding the two team leaders, Gato Leonard looked at the rest of the group:

"Gentlemen, after this operation succeeds, each of your names will be etched in the history of the Seven Kingdoms! You will be heroes of the Western Continent!"

"Yes--!"

Everyone was excited.

On the sixth day of the eighth month of the ninth year of Yuanxing, the western expeditionary army had been on its way for more than forty days.

The western coastline, the experimental base for "Ragnarok".

underground.

"Everyone in position!"

Vander Weber's voice echoed through the factory, and dozens of researchers sprang into action, like precise gears.

None of the seven dukes from the seven kingdoms, including marquises, remained at the experimental base.

Despite several experiments, Massimo Calvin's atomic bomb design was still not stable enough.

Moreover, the bomb has undergone multiple extraordinary forging processes and incorporated a large amount of extraordinary materials.

Theoretically, there is a 7% chance that a bomb will explode prematurely!
Therefore, none of the coalition's high-ranking officials remained on site.

The experimental launch site was dozens of kilometers away from the army's base, so even if the launch failed, it wouldn't lead to the annihilation of the entire coalition force.
The massive structure in the center of the factory—the cylindrical 'chimney' that connected to the ceiling—began to emit a low hum.

Inside the 'chimney' was a dark red spear, over thirty meters long and more than three meters in diameter.

The spear's surface was covered with dense metallic runes—a masterpiece by Vander Weber.

A complete set of concealment runes, inscribed with the power of extraordinary bloodlines, can distort light and energy fluctuations, preventing them from being detected by the danger perception abilities of powerful individuals.

In order to imprint this set of concealment runes, the prince of the Kingdom of Mega, who possessed the talent for concealment, even contributed one-third of his own life essence!

In addition, this set of runes also used the corpses of five deceased dukes.

There is a bullet inside the spearhead.

This warhead is the atomic bomb designed by Massimo Calvin, possessing terrifying destructive power!
When the atomic bomb was developed, the leaders of the seven Western Continents were overjoyed.

Because such destructive power even surpasses that of the top experts in the Eastern Continent!
But soon a practical problem confronted the higher-ups—

How can we ensure that we can hit those powerful individuals with atomic bombs?

Dropped by airplane?
The speed is too slow.

Design a trap to explode on the spot?

Many strong individuals possess the ability to sense danger.

Given the power of an atomic bomb, if it cannot be guaranteed that a top-tier expert is within one kilometer of the blast's epicenter, the chances of killing them are very low.

Moreover, against a Dao principle like "Selflessness" or a powerful individual with the ability to traverse the void, even the greatest power of an atomic bomb would be useless.
Thus, the seven kingdoms of the Western Continent joined forces and launched the [Ragnarok] project.

By combining extraordinary body tempering and forging with atomic energy bombs, a super-powerful extraordinary bomb is created!

This bomb must first possess the ability to conceal itself from the danger perception of powerful individuals.

Secondly, it can be remotely controlled, just like the flying swords of the Eastern Continent.

Finally, the bomb's range must be long enough, at least over 300 kilometers!

This distance ensures that the bomb is difficult to detect in advance, allowing ample time to enter the perfect state of concealment, and also provides sufficient distance to accelerate to maximum speed.

When an atomic bomb possesses these three extraordinary abilities, it becomes Ragnarok.

If such a bomb could silently approach within a kilometer of that expeditionary fleet, even if the world's number one expert were to personally guard it, the fleet would still be doomed!

Even those imperial guards with tens of thousands of men each were doomed!
The atomic bomb was encased in a 'living alloy' crafted by Vander Weber. The warhead was covered with fine, vein-like patterns that shimmered with a ghostly blue light, as if it were a living thing breathing.

This alloy can improve the stability of the bomb and can also detonate the bomb at any time, enabling remote control.

"Initiate launch sequence!"

Massimo Calvin gave the order loudly, his fingers typing the final command on the keyboard.

The floor on the third basement level shook slightly, and the air temperature rose sharply.

Inside the device, energy began to accumulate.

The spear began to heat up, releasing a scorching orange-red halo.

In order to increase the range of Ragnarok, three princes sacrificed their own flesh and blood!
Vander Weber closed his eyes and concentrated, his bloodline power surging. He formed hand seals and activated the runes he had inscribed.

An invisible energy field spread out, enveloping the spear and transforming the intense energy fluctuations into a near-silent undercurrent.

"The concealment field has been successfully activated!"

Vander Weber's lips curled into a smile.

Launch countdown: 10 seconds!

The alloy gate on the top of the factory building slowly slid open, revealing the deep night sky above.

Everyone held their breath, staring intently at the data screen.

Failure, utter destruction!
Success! Your name will be etched in history!
"Launch at .321!"

Boom——!
A deafening roar ripped through the silence; it wasn't an explosion, but a roar of released energy.

A dazzling golden beam of light, three meters in diameter, shot out from the tail of the spear, propelling it straight into the sky!

The base shook, and dust fell in gusts. A beam of light burst through the gates, tearing through the night sky and illuminating the three underground levels as bright as day.

The moment the spear ascended into the air, the concealment runes on the spear took effect, causing ripples to spread across its surface, their colors distorting like a mirage. The surrounding air rippled, absorbing and scattering all sound, heat, and energy.

To the naked eye, only a blurry, ethereal shape could be seen, as if a ghost were taking flight.

The spear quickly broke the sound barrier.

"Energy is stable!"

"The runic field is stable!"

"Flight trajectory normal!"

"."

"Everyone, we succeeded!!!"

Van der Weber raised his arms and shouted.

Everyone present screamed and cheered, releasing their emotions.

Dozens of kilometers away, at the army's encampment.

Seven dukes, led by Gato Leonard, stood on a high platform.

This high platform was cast from extraordinary materials and engraved with complex runes.

This is an array used to remotely control the [Ragnarok] that has already flown away.

The seven dukes joined forces to activate the array, continuously injecting power to maintain remote control over Ragnarok.

According to prior reconnaissance, the Great Blue Dynasty's fleet was still more than 270 kilometers away from the western coastline.

Controlling the vehicle from a distance of over 200 kilometers is something even Ji Yiheng, who once pushed the limits, couldn't do.

Only the strongest experts at the peak of the True One Realm could possess such an ability.

Ragnarok was achieved through the supernatural transformation using the flesh and blood of three princes, coupled with the most advanced technology of the era, and finally, only with the combined efforts of seven dukes could it be barely accomplished.

Under the control of the seven dukes, the spear flew at supersonic speeds at an altitude of ten thousand meters, heading straight for the fleet of the Great Blue Dynasty.

Five minutes later, the terrifying power representing the destruction of everything will fall on the heads of hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the western expeditionary army like a spear of judgment thrown by a demon god!

History will be changed at this moment.
