An invincible journey starting from a different race

Ivy gestured with her hands.

"It's so tall and so big, isn't it necessary?" Ivy said. "And, with all due respect, this fifty-meter-tall golem's only useful 'sword' is probably the only thing on its body. Why make its hands and feet so elaborate?"

Aesop replied: "Because it's cool."

ivy:"?"

"And if there's only a 'sword,' it's too imperfect," Aesop said. "With only a sword and no swordsman, how can it be considered a battle? It would just be self-generated power, and I cannot approve of that kind of battle."

Why do I need your approval?! Do you understand the point?!

Although Ivy wanted to complain about Aesop, she thought about how Aesop had a close relationship with another mythical creature and was someone her grandmother held in high esteem, so she held it back and said to him, "But that would make too much noise, wouldn't it?"

After listening to Ivy's advice, Aesop nodded slightly: "I understand."

Ivy suddenly felt relieved. She had originally thought Aesop was the kind of person who was difficult to talk to, but she didn't expect him to be reasonable. As long as she talked to him nicely, he would listen...

"You feel that as the Grandmother of the Forest, you're unworthy of such a magnificent battle, don't you?" Aesop said. "So even the retreat battle can't be enjoyable? If that's the case, then I understand."

ivy:"……"

After saying that, Aesop was about to take the design drawings back, but Ivy slapped the drawings and said through gritted teeth.

"I'll sign it, isn't it okay if I sign it?"

Aesop said kindly, "Don't force yourself. If you're not satisfied with this plan, I have other options. For example, I can use it in a dream. I also know nightmare magic, so I can make Grandma happy in a dream."

"You! Don't! Say! Anymore!!" Ivy gritted her teeth, speaking slowly and clearly. "I've agreed to all your designs. Fifty meters is fifty meters, and all expenses will be reimbursed by Yor Forest. Is that okay now? I mean, now you can turn these blueprints into reality and give Grandmother a magnificent battle, right?!"

Aesop replied simply, "No problem at all."

In this way, Aesop didn't have to spend too much effort to get Ivy to approve his Tianting project.

After the plan was approved, the entire Yor Forest began to work. After all, they were going to build a fifty-meter-tall golem, something that hadn't been produced even during the frenzied war years. The tools and parts required were naturally countless. However, Yor Forest didn't have the ability to manufacture them, so they had to source them.

However, procurement can only purchase parts. The main body of the puppet is too large, and it is impossible to purchase all of it. Even customization is impossible, so we can only make it ourselves.

Fortunately, there is no shortage of wood in the forest, so we just have to chop it down.

Although the descendants of the forest hate the act of logging, after all, it is just logging in the eyes of other races, but in the eyes of the tree spirits, it is just cutting off their own hands and feet!

But when the tree spirits heard that this was to fulfill the grandmother's last wish, they did not complain. Instead, they offered wood very actively. In just half a day, the front of Aesop was filled with wood that was more than ten meters high and dozens of meters wide.

Moreover, tree spirits kept coming to deliver new wood, and the scene was quite spectacular.

Such a big move naturally cannot escape the attention of outsiders.

For example, the Vatican.

It can be said that the Holy See was the first to notice the changes in Yor Forest during this period. After all, the grandmother of Yor Forest is a mythical creature, and a mythical creature whose time is coming to an end.

No one knows what an extremely powerful being will do at the end of his life.

Therefore, even though the Holy See knew that the Forest Grandmother was a high-ranking being who did not like fighting (after all, she had even successfully avoided the war years), it still had to be extremely vigilant.

This was not without precedent. Over the century after the end of the war, there were still cases of stubborn survivors who, in their final moments, chose to indulge themselves, subsequently causing disasters and wars. With so many precedents, the church set its sights on this forest over a decade ago, closely monitoring every move within the Yor Forest.

The church believed that with their means, even the slightest change would be detected instantly.

What's more... this change is not small.

"What the hell is that..."

A few days later, Yuti, who received the news, stood outside the Yor Forest and looked with his magic eyes at the huge black shadow that suddenly stood up in the Yor Forest ten thousand meters away.

"Is it... a giant?"

Amat, who was standing next to her, said, "We got word that the Yoel Forest had been making that thing four days ago. We originally thought it would take longer to complete, but we didn't expect it to be so fast. It's only been four days, and they've already finished something roughly. It seems like the entire forest has been mobilized."

When he said this, Amat's words were full of worry.

No one knows what the Yoel Forest wants to do, or what the mythical creature, whose life is nearing the end, wants to do.

Now that the goddess was asleep, they had no place to seek answers.

Facing such a level of existence, it is really a bit helpless.

You can't really go over and ask, "Hey, what are you doing?"

"Judging from the specifications, it resembles the Sky Thunder, humanity's ultimate weapon against the Dragon King and the Demon King, which once existed only on blueprints," said Amat. "But this is twice as powerful as the legendary Sky Thunder. What destructive power would that have? And they've already started training. According to reports from the people below, they've been practicing swordsmanship since yesterday."

Yudi canceled the Magic Eye and said hesitantly.

"Well, I don't quite understand."

"What kind of sword... is it hung at the waist and then thrust forward?"

176 What conspiracy are they planning?

As the contemporary hero of the Holy See, the most powerful fighter, and a half-human, half-god being, Youdi believes that he cannot be said to know everything about this world, but at least he can be said to be knowledgeable.

At least in terms of swordsmanship, she has fought against many powerful sword masters and experienced their swordsmanship.

Among them, there is the thunder-like movement of the dwarves, the sharpness and cunningness of humans, and the softness and beauty of the elves.

But there is no sword technique like the one in front of him that would make Youdi doubt whether this is a sword technique or not.

"What do you see?"

Amat doesn't have the "magic eye" like Yuti that can see thousands of miles away, so he can only judge based on Yuti's description.

Yuti replied, "I saw the puppet hanging the sword on its waist and then stabbing around."

Amat: "..."

"Really? It's just completely random poking." Youdi took another look and said, "It's really weird. There's no pattern at all. How dare you call it humanity's final decisive battle weapon? Apart from its height and length, there's nothing else worth noting about this thing."

"No, you must not think so, Yudi." Amat said seriously, "Perhaps this is what they deliberately showed us to make us let our guard down?"

Youdi asked, "You mean, they already know that we already know what they want to do, so they're playing along, pretending not to know that we already know their conspiracy, and deliberately showing weakness so that we don't know what they're planning?"

The corner of Amat's mouth twitched slightly: "...Can you explain it more simply? Okay, okay, I think I understand what you mean. You don't need to explain anymore."

"I think you're being overly sensitive," Yuti said. "That wooden shell doesn't look particularly threatening at all. Besides, the Forest Grandmother has always been one of the more benign mythical creatures, second only to the unseen volcanic phoenix and the one deep in the snowfields. I really don't understand why she would stir up something so bizarre in her final moments after a lifetime of peace. It doesn't make sense at all."

Amat said, "Look at the Sky Thunder. Does it make sense? Youdi, the bishop has reminded us many times that although we are in a peaceful era, it doesn't mean there is no crisis at all. Our church can only see where the light reaches, but what about those places where the light cannot reach? The undercurrent is surging. No one knows what those guys who have been suppressed by the goddess for their entire lives will think of doing after the goddess falls asleep. And there are examples before. You say it doesn't make sense, then why did the arcanist Abel let his disciple leave Deya Academy? He is a quasi-arcanist. Do you think he left the academy just to find the nightmare?"

Youdi curled her lips and did not refute Amat because she couldn't refute it.

At this moment, a church knight came up hurriedly and whispered something in Amat's ear. Amat's expression changed immediately.

"What's wrong?" Yuti asked Amat, "What happened again?"

Amat did not answer immediately, but waved his hand to let the church knights retreat, and then spoke to Youdi very seriously.

"That Tianting was built by Aesop."

Yudi was slightly taken aback: "What?"

"Intelligence indicates that Aesop is in the Yor Forest and has met with the Forest Grandmother." Amat's expression became more serious. "And the Thunderbolt project seems to have been proposed by Aesop."

"It's actually this guy... No, it's definitely this guy!" Upon hearing it was Aesop, Youdi immediately gritted her teeth. "If it's him, then it's no surprise he did anything. That Tian-something number must have been created by him to start a war, what a bastard!"

Yudi once again cast her magical eye upon the Thunderbolt. What had seemed to her like a dull, comical attempt to block the sword thrust suddenly became a sinister conspiracy after the addition of Aesop's name. Yes, this guy definitely had bad intentions. This fifty-meter-tall golem looked like a war machine.

What else could it be if not a war machine? A sex toy?

Neuropathy!

Amat did not refute Yuti's point of view because he also thought so.

Aesop's actions in Loen City last time had left them deeply perplexed. Regardless of his original intentions, the result was a major disturbance. Thus, by then, the Church had already labeled him a "threat," a symbol of restlessness. And now, the restless would-be arcanist had mingled with the dying Forest Grandmother. What could be his purpose? Amat simply couldn't fathom it.

"We can't watch any longer," Amat said. "The bishop instructed us to risk sneaking into the Yor Forest and find out their purpose."

"Leave it to me!" Youdi said as she was about to rush in. "I'm going to chop that guy up right now! It's all over once and for all!"

Hearing Yudi say this, Amat was so scared that he quickly reached out and held her shoulder.

"What are you thinking!" Amat said, "You rush in like that, are you looking for death?"

Yudi said unhappily, "Am I looking for death? Whether it's that Aesop or that forest grandmother, I'm not afraid of them."

"What if the two of them team up?"

Yudi fell silent immediately.

Amat sighed and said, "We are only assuming that the Forest Grandmother intends to break the peace treaty. It's just an assumption. Until we are sure, we cannot take action against such a being. You must know that she is not just a mythical creature, but also the ruler of the Yor Forest. We cannot ignore her status."

"This won't work, and that won't work either." Yudi's fur was almost standing on end. "So what's the solution?!"

"You can only sneak in!" Amat said. "Although your strength is not enough to deal with the Forest Grandmother and Aesop at the same time, it is easy to disguise yourself under their noses."

"Infiltrate?" Youdi was a little confused. "I've never done anything like this before."

"It's okay. I have a tutorial here." Amat handed Yuti a manual. "Just follow it."

Yudi took the manual and glanced at it, only to see that it clearly stated - "Guide to Undercover Investigators".

"This is the experience of our Vatican's undercover investigators throughout the ages," said Armate. "As long as you follow the instructions here, you will be able to complete the mission easily."

Although Youdi was reluctant to go through so much trouble, she also knew that this mission could not be solved by force, so she could only nod reluctantly: "I understand."

Then he picked up the manual and was about to rush inside, but was stopped by Amat again.

"What happened again?!" Youdi felt very angry.

"Uh, I just wanted to remind you," Amat said, "If you have the chance, complete the other task as well."

"what?"

"Yitian takes sperm."

Youdi: “…”

"This is a great opportunity," said Amat. "It will allow us to better understand the mysteries of star magic... I'll leave it to you!"

Amat patted Yuti's shoulder vigorously to show encouragement. Although Yuti wanted to get angry, she still held back at this moment.

Damn it, Aesop.

Let me see what kind of conspiracy you are planning!

……

"Ahhhhhhhhhh I can't take it anymore!" Stank screamed miserably, "My head is going to explode, it's really going to explode, stop stabbing me!"

Stank's voice came from the "sword" of the Thunder.

"Whose leg is that? Can you aim more accurately?" Stank shouted. "The target is wood, not stone! How can you poke stone?"

Bruce's slightly apologetic voice echoed from the right foot of the Thunderbolt: "Sorry, Stank, I can't see the stone from this angle."

On the left foot, Jer was speaking: "Well, the cooperation was not very good, but then again, even if the position was not chosen well, you can also not poke it. Who is the waist?"

Aesop's voice came from his lower abdomen: "It's me."

"Why the fuck are you poking at the rock!?"

Aesop thought for a moment and said, "If I don't poke the stone, how can I prove that my waist is healthy?"

177 Youti: Weird, why isn't there...

The fusion ended, and the consciousness of several people returned to their bodies from their legs, swords, and waists respectively.

As soon as he returned to his body, Stank used both hands, one to press his head and the other to cover his crotch, with an expression of great pain.

Jer turned his head and looked at what he was doing. He asked thoughtfully, "I know what your left hand means, and I also know what your right hand means, but I don't quite understand what you mean by both hands together."

Stank gritted his teeth and said, "Try transferring your consciousness into the 'sword' and then poke it at a stone, and you'll understand! Right now, I just feel pain in both my head and my little head!"

As he spoke, Stank turned his head and pointed his spear at Aesop.

"Aesop! Why did you start poking rocks when it was my turn to try out the 'sword'?! You must be deliberately messing with me!"

After the Tianting was completed yesterday... Oh no, it shouldn't be called Tianting yet, it's still in the experimental stage, it should be called Unit-01.

After Unit-01 was completed, the four of them immediately began fusion drills. Jair and Bruce channeled their consciousness to their left and right legs respectively, Stank was in charge of the waist, and Aesop was in charge of the sword.

But after a day of trying, Stank felt that the sword position was too exciting, poking and prodding, very interesting, so he asked to switch positions with Aesop. They only tried it during practice, and in the final battle with the grandmother, Aesop still controlled the sword. Aesop agreed, and let Stank take over, while he controlled the waist.

The result was that Aesop controlled his waist, manipulated the sword, aimed at the stone and started a lightning five-hit sting, almost killing all of Stank's men.
