Star Forge Titan

Not to mention that some of the more hidden ruins may contain precious relics directly from the Titan Uranus civilization.
With the power of Lind and Elrond, the two most developed countries in the world, they can deal with several wizard kings with abilities beyond the ordinary fourth level. Although they cannot be destroyed with a wave of their hands, it is still within their ability to bear.
However, the two countries, located in the northern part of the continent and the central and western part of the continent respectively, are a very long distance away from the quiet desert in the southeastern corner of the continent.
Although more advanced transportation methods have been around for some time, road construction, especially the laying of train tracks, has yet to be widespread. Therefore, even with the national strength of Elrond or Lind, large-scale military deployments to the Silent Desert would be impossible in a short period of time.
What is relatively more feasible is to mobilize high-level extraordinary people to form an elite team, rely on advanced transportation tools such as airships that are still in the experimental stage, or simply use rare long-distance flying magic equipment, or even use the extraordinary people's own abilities to quickly reach the Silent Desert by forced march.
Considering the huge benefits that the Giant Kingdom ruins are likely to bring, doing so is very worthwhile even for the two powerful countries.
Considering his relationship with Afrediya, if he only notified Elrond to come to his aid, this piece of meat would most likely just rot in his own pot. A smile appeared on the black-haired boy's face, but it quickly faded.
As for Ivan, the most legitimate heir to this legacy, why he was willing to make such a choice that went against his own interests was naturally because of the existence of the dangerous power of Pure Color Poison.
Judging from the behavior of several wizard kings, this power would undoubtedly distort and pollute the human mind. That alone would be fine; a few madmen wouldn't pose much of a threat to the entire continent. However, this pollution could potentially allow people to possess extraordinary powers beyond their original rank, which would be extremely disturbing.
Furthermore, based on known information, the Pure Color Poison that the Sorcerer Kings encountered was likely not the true form of that power, but rather the aftermath leaked from the ruins. This suggests that the Pure Color Poison's true form may possess even more terrifying abilities.
Therefore, also because of the existence of the pure color poison, Alvin was very hesitant about whether to increase the number of people who knew about this matter.
If such a dangerous power could be quietly sealed deep within the ruins of the Giant Kingdom, it might be a good thing for Palladio now.
For example, it's like you knew that the final battle robot of a super ancient civilization was sealed underground in the Sahara Desert, and that the power of that thing could even destroy the entire planet.
So, whether to dig this thing out yourself or find a way to report it to the management agency (if there really is a "relevant department" related to it), it will be a very difficult choice.
Or to put it another way, if you have a big red button at your fingertips that can detonate all the nuclear bombs in the world at the same time, the existence of this button, even if only one person other than yourself knows about it, may bring some very dangerous possibilities to the whole world.
Therefore, there are reasons why some secrets should remain unknown.
"It's really a headache." Alvin narrowed his eyes, showing a distressed expression.
This subtle feeling suddenly made him understand why the Giant Kingdom wanted to establish a special third heritage management agency to manage the powerful heritage from the Uranus civilization.
At the same time, Ivan realized he actually had another choice. He recalled the unknown emblem of the God of Wisdom deep in his consciousness, and the mysterious system that could also be called the 'Spirit Terminal'.
Informing the Temple of Knowledge about this matter might be a relatively appropriate way to handle it.
Speaking of which, Ivan initially thought that the spirit terminal was a game system that appeared on his body after crossing over, mainly because the game system in the virtual Palladia world had very little presence.
Although the game system can call out and display player information, it can neither be used for one-click upgrades nor for free allocation of attribute points. The relevant operations are completely integrated into the various actions of players within the game, so it gives people a very real feeling.
Back to the point, from Ivan's current perspective, the lepton terminal that was attached to his consciousness at that time might simply be displaying all aspects of this body's information using the method he was most familiar with. In fact, the lepton terminal might not have a direct connection to the actual game system.
Many things that happened later also confirmed that this thing was very likely from the Uranus civilization, and even the God of Wisdom itself had a close connection with the Titans.
Therefore, Ivan always had a subtle impression of the Temple of Knowledge. Although the other party had maintained a neutral status of "protecting the world of Palladia from demonic invasions and other malicious events" for hundreds of years.
But we must always be on guard against others. When facing an existence or force that is more powerful than ourselves, maintaining a certain degree of vigilance is the way for the weak (?) to survive.
In short, at least before he becomes level four and awakens the soul of King Uranus, Alvin will not easily approach any Temple of Knowledge, nor will he easily approach the white-haired paladins affiliated with the Temple of Knowledge.
But when he becomes strong enough, Alvin will definitely go to the headquarters of the Temple of Knowledge, the huge library floating in the sky, to find out what's inside.
When it comes to the Titan and Uranus civilizations, this is an inevitable move.
Forget it, let's focus on developing the 'Fighting Clothes' for now.
The research and development of the battle suit must be accelerated. The First Witch King's plan in Ismailia City shows that he is deliberately collecting Gaia fragments.
While the other party's specific purpose was unknown, the Gaia Slate was undoubtedly a crucial component. Therefore, even if Ismailia's plan failed, the First Sorcerer King Horhara's subsequent actions would revolve around collecting Gaia fragments.
In other words, Horhala is likely to attack the other two Witch Kings.
This prompted Alvin, Brad and the other masters of the Fighter Council to make a quick decision to urgently strengthen the military strength of the Fist of Freedom in the next period of time, and then immediately attack the city-state ruled by the Fifth Witch King Hopet.
In a sense, this is also a race.
After being busy with this for a long time, Alvin almost forgot that he still had a travel note from the Witch King Senedd in his hand that he had not read.
With a light sigh, Ivan put aside the old notebook lying quietly in the lepton space and turned his attention back to the metal material in his hand.
It was a piece of high-purity gold obtained by melting and refining several pieces of gold sand (a high-value currency commonly used in the Silent Desert), and it shone with bright metallic reflections all over.
After a period of research, Alvin and the dwarf blacksmiths discovered that apart from valuable rare materials such as mithril and fine gold, gold was actually the most suitable metal material for containing the power of the fist configuration, followed by silver and iron which was often used to make weapons.
This is consistent with some theorems in magic. High-level magic rituals often require gold as a carrier material to create the base of the magic circle, followed by silver, steel or bronze.
Sure enough, the essence of boxing and magic is similar, or is boxing actually another form of magic? All kinds of wonderful conjectures flooded into his mind, which greatly increased Alvin's curiosity.
Anyway, the most experienced dwarven craftsmen had already begun production on the prototype of the battle suit to verify their ideas. Judging by the progress, it would probably be a while before someone came to inform them of the prototype's completion.
Sure enough, Alvin continued to think for a while, and suddenly there was an urgent knock on the door outside.
Chapter 28: Primitive Fighting Clothes
Before opening the door, Alvin was still thinking about the impact of starting a second war immediately on the city of Nunnris and everyone.
For the people, war is undoubtedly very bad news.
But considering the longer-term future, if we don't want to fall into the tyrannical rule of the Witch King again, we must crush the inevitable conspiracy of the First Witch King.
After realizing this, Alvin breathed a sigh of relief and temporarily put aside those troublesome problems. After all, he still had his senior brother Brad to lead the way, so he just had to do what he could first.
Well, considering the fact that he is a time traveler, a descendant of the Titans, a false prophet, and a person who has made a contract with God, as well as a series of other various backgrounds and abilities, there are many things that Alvin can do and can do better than the best in the entire Palladia world... It seems that there are quite a lot.
With a subtle expression, Alvin opened the soundproof solid wood door and saw Lucas with a happy face.
Because his master Gao Shan was injured in a previous boxing match, this young man was temporarily assigned to serve as an assistant under Ivan. In a sense, he was also a temporary apprentice learning boxing from him.
Because the other party is very hardworking, polite, and talented, Alvin is willing to give him some guidance in his free time after work.
This young man's learning ability was quite good; he was actually able to grasp some of the profound secrets of the Lan Dou Xin Liu boxing style after being directly taught. Combined with the boxing manual Brad had given him, perhaps this young man, without the aid of a 'fighting robe', could, after long hours of practice and some minor guidance, achieve some level of Dou Qi Steel Armor.
Therefore, after a period of contact, Alvin became more and more interested in Lucas's boxing training, and the latter's way of addressing him changed from the more respectful "Master Elian" to the more intimate "Teacher Elian".
By the way, judging by Lucas's current rate of improvement, Gao Shan might find that his boxing skills are no longer comparable to his new apprentice who has only been with him for less than a year when he recovers from his illness at the healing center.
When he thought of this, Alvin couldn't help but reveal an increasingly subtle expression, a contradictory expression of wanting to laugh but trying hard to hold it back for politeness reasons.
"Teacher Elian, Mr. Thorin said that 'that thing' has been completed." Although Lucas was a little curious about why Teacher Elian, who was about the same age as him, had such an expression, the young man who knew the priorities of things immediately told him what Thorin asked him to bring.
Considering confidentiality, Lucas didn't publicly call it "Dou Yi Prototype." However, knowing the whole story, Ivan naturally understood his meaning.
In addition, according to the naming habits of everyone in the research institute, people sometimes also call the 'Douyi prototype' the 'original Douyi'.
"So fast, it's worthy of being a dwarven craft, it's really extraordinary in every aspect." Ivan showed a happy expression, casually grabbed a sunshade cloak and set off with Lucas.
The city of Nuenris, which is in the process of post-war reconstruction, is full of construction sites and many roads are semi-blocked, but this is no problem at all for the two agile boxers.
Lucas moves like a nimble monkey; walls, eaves and even chimneys can become his temporary shelters.
And Ivan, following behind Lucas, was even more remarkable. He casually placed his hands behind his back, and naturally activated the secret technique known as Force String Control. With just a light tap of his toes on the ground, he launched the black-haired boy into the air like a reed floating on a river.
The cloak fluttered in the wind, and Alvin also moved forward quickly.
The various boxing techniques that he had mastered were gradually integrated into Alvin's every move naturally under the central control of Li Xian.
In a sense, his control over boxing is no less than a great wizard's familiarity with magic. Otherwise, he would not have been able to separate and integrate the powerful skill called 'Fighting Steel Armor' into boxing, thereby deducing a whole new school of boxing.
Well, it’s just that not many people can learn it for the time being.
The place for developing fighting clothes was arranged in the central area of the city. It originally belonged to various desert nobles. Although they were also ruled and enslaved by the Witch King, they lived a life thousands of times better than ordinary people. Perhaps all this was due to the fact that they knelt down at the feet of the Witch King faster a hundred years ago.
These people who usually acted tyrannically, like their counterparts in Ismailia City, were completely drained of their vitality by the Witch King Sened's final resistance or instinctive rampage, and their remains were completely turned into dust and scattered all over the ground.
The few remaining desert nobles were found guilty of their crimes one by one at the public trials held after the Fists of Freedom seized control of the city.
Next, naturally, those who should swing will swing, those who should be exiled will be exiled, and those who should be exiled will be exiled.
On the contrary, some individuals who were once recognized by the aristocratic group as unsociable weirdos happily gave up their aristocratic status and the large tracts of land they could have inherited, and took their easels, pens, and the old housekeeper who raised them, and ran to the countryside to become free art lovers.
In the words of the middle-aged writer who is good at painting, painting saved my life. If I hadn't run to the fields to paint the landscape that day, I would have been ruthlessly turned into sand by the Witch King like those disgusting relatives.
Next, I can make a relaxed life for myself and 'Dad' by drawing and writing. There is no need to linger on the life of exploiting others like a vampire.
Having said that, wouldn’t people who are used to that kind of life have trouble sleeping at night?
But such people are only a minority after all. Most of the desert nobles who managed to escape the clutches of the Witch King were voluntarily made pendants on street lamps after leaving behind their manors, mansions and a large amount of treasures because of their past crimes.
As for the various manors and mansions they left behind, after discussions among the masters of the Freedom Fist High-Level Fighters Council, they decided to convert all of these buildings into public facilities.
As a result, the manor houses that were originally only enjoyed by aristocratic lords became hospitals, administrative offices and even museums that people of all classes could enter and exit freely.
The area where the 'Fighting Clothes' research was conducted was a former aristocratic manor.
Unlike other public buildings, this ordinary-looking manor is actually closely guarded by many Zhenggequan fighters.
Although Alvin and Lucas seemed unable to walk properly after climbing up and down the mountain, they finally got down to the ground and walked after arriving near the manor. They revealed their identities and passed through the checkpoints one after another before finally arriving at the Douyi Research Institute.
"Why are you here so late? The carrier of the original fighting suit has been completed! It is a masterpiece that all the master craftsmen have praised highly." Thorin pulled Ivan and ran hurriedly into the research institute.
Behind him, Lucas consciously did not follow in. After all, he was just an apprentice now. The only reason he knew about the existence of this plan was because he was the assistant to Master Elian.
As for Thorin, by notifying many Dwarf families in Ismailia ahead of time to relocate, they were actually safer than anyone else when the Witch-King's War broke out. Thorin, who originally had a bad reputation, actually took this opportunity to win the praise and trust of many of his people, and was poised to become the representative of the Dwarves of Nulnris.
However, he himself did not seem to care so much about this. Instead, he would rather go to the tavern and be a cheerful bard who was proficient in playing musical instruments, singing, eating, drinking and gambling.
After a few steps, Alvin arrived at the confidential area inside the institute.
The dwarf craftsmen habitually bowed to him, not for anything else, but because of the unshakable dominance that [Reshaping the World] demonstrated in the field of craftsmanship.
Therefore, even though Alvin has concealed his identity as a Titan and suppressed his special magical fluctuations, the dwarf craftsmen still admire him.
After returning the greeting seriously, Alvin turned his attention to the special "dress" on the central circular platform of the institute.
"This is..." The black-haired boy took two steps forward and raised his hand to press the cylindrical glass column that isolated the special "clothing" from the outside air.
A golden light illuminated his handsome and masculine face. The light did not come from the outside world, but escaped from the inside of the cylindrical glass column, and was filled with faint magical fluctuations.
Ivan's dark eyes reflected the true appearance of the glowing object, which was a full-body armor that glowed with luxurious gold.
Every line and every contour of it makes people subconsciously hold their breath, and can't help but admire the magnificent and mysterious golden light.
"Original Douyi!"
Chapter 29 Successful Explosion
Originally, according to Alvin's idea, this kind of item was more experimental than practical, so it only needed to be sturdy enough in shape.
But the dwarf craftsmen in charge of this work showed the dwarfs' stubbornness like a rock.
"Dwarven armor must be of the highest quality, both artistically and practically!" the old dwarf blacksmith, whose beard had turned snow-white, roared in an exceptionally loud voice.
Since they all said so, what else could Alvin do? As long as the key data met the standards, the appearance was negotiable. He didn't have to make the 'original fighting suit' ugly.
But this thing in front of me, let's call it armor, is too exaggerated!
Alvin was a little dazed for a moment.
The original fighting suit's appearance adopted the marked perfect armor shape, that is, the appearance of Maximilian armor.
The so-called perfect armor was actually created by a skilled dwarf master for a human king who loved collecting armor.
His Majesty the King Maximilian III was not only a wealthy lover who spent a lot of money on the things he liked, but also an excellent researcher who invested huge energy in studying the things he liked.
Even the dwarves who were always proud of their skills had to admit with a pinch of their noses that His Majesty was indeed very good at armor design and research, even a little better than the dwarven craftsmen.
Such an outstanding armor researcher, working with a dwarf master whose craftsmanship has reached the pinnacle, the armor they produced eventually became a culmination of the best aspects of all armors of that era.
Therefore, after the style was finally established, this type of armor was called the Ultimate Perfect Armor, and was sometimes also called by the name of the designer and inventor, that is, Maximilian armor.
The perfect armor has a full-coverage structure made entirely of metal, including the knee joints, elbow joints and underarm areas that are difficult to cover with old plate armor. All of them are covered without dead ends using excellently designed movable armor plates to ensure 100% metal coverage.
In addition, the surface of the armor has a multi-level inclined rib structure specifically designed for arrows. Therefore, after being made of metal materials of the same weight, it has better defense than other styles of plate armor.
This also makes the appearance of the perfect armor different from ordinary plate armor. The Maximilian armor, which is full of ribbed structures at all costs, looks like the entire set of armor is covered with undulating exquisite reliefs. Its appearance is closer to some kind of exquisite artistic creation, rather than a set of armor used for brutal fighting.
However, in actual combat, armor with this structure can better absorb impact force and prevent the user from being subjected to a series of common attacks such as slashing and stabbing.
In addition to these physical defense enhancements, His Majesty Maximilian III also designed a complete set of combined enchantments for the ultimate perfect armor.
Yes, His Majesty is not only proficient in armor design, but he is also an excellent spellcaster.
According to his original design, all Maximilian armor must have a series of defensive enchantments, including arrow defense, curse resistance, and heat insulation. As for other auxiliary abilities such as strength enhancement and perception enhancement, there are as many as seventeen of them. This is just the most basic enchantment list. More advanced and optimized versions are even more outrageous.
According to the most exaggerated statement at the time, even if a young nobleman who was weak and powerless put on a complete set of Maximilian armor, he could gain the combat power to defeat a thousand enemies alone.
The cost of such armor was naturally outrageous. Of the perfect armor handed down from the time of Maximilian III, there were less than twelve sets that were completely intact, and only three sets that were not damaged by the enchantments.
By the way, one of the sets of Maximilian-style perfect armor with an extremely exaggerated shape was collected by the Linde royal family.
It is said that even the king is not allowed to wear this set of armor during ordinary celebrations. Only when there is a war that truly threatens the national security of Linde or the most important celebrations, the current king has the authority to take out this set of armor from the sealed royal treasury and wear it.
