Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Chapter 539: Chapter 533: Harsh Forging Requirements

"Mageon, are you in there?"

In the underground of the Dwarf Kingdom’s royal city, Lin You walked forward, calling out loudly.

As he walked through the underground tunnels, the continuous clanging of hammering and the bubbling of lava echoed in his ears.

Occasionally, a wave of heat would hit him, forcing him to squint his eyes.

Turning a corner, he saw Mageon by the great furnace, hammering on equipment. The War God Hammer in his hand was wielded with immense power, smashing onto the forging table with a bang.

"You’re here."

Seeing Lin You come in, Mageon wasn’t surprised. He stopped his actions and looked over.

"What brings you here?"

"I wanted to ask you, what kind of materials do you need to forge a set of Tier Ten Offensive and Defensive Conversion Equipment?" Lin You stated his purpose directly.

After the brief encounter with the Infinite King last time, he deeply felt the weakness of the Plant Type’s attacks and realized that he lacked a burst attack method.

The opponent hadn’t even activated Enhancement Skills and could severely injure him with a full explosion, while he could only inflict a minor injury on the opponent.

The Plant Type’s attack features are continuous and enduring, but lack burst.

Facing opponents weaker than himself is fine, as he can crush them with high attributes.

But once he encounters someone stronger, this flaw becomes magnified.

So what if you have endurance?

Without a burst method, it’s like having no winning move, and you can only take a beating, let alone wear down your opponent in a war of attrition.

And others have noticed as well.

After Tier Ten Lords master the Power of Space, the freezing and slowing effect of the Frost Spirit Set becomes very limited, greatly reducing the practicality of this equipment.

So he wanted to find a breakthrough in the equipment, to see if there is a good solution.

For example, that kind of Offensive and Defensive Conversion Equipment he had seen before would suit him well.

"Offensive and Defensive Conversion... It’s possible, but it requires high-grade materials," Mageon said after pondering for a moment.

"Can you forge it?" Lin You’s eyes lit up. "Materials aren’t a problem. As long as you tell me, I can collect them!"

"If that’s the case, then go collect the cores of Rock Type Demons, the sternum of Power Type Beast Demons, and the energy cores of Spiritual Type Demons. Three of each, preferably Lord Level; that should be enough to forge a three-piece set," Mageon said, stroking his bearded chin.

"So many?" Lin You exclaimed in surprise.

The material requirements are indeed outrageously high, needing nine materials in total and even specifying the demon types.

Given the current scarcity of Tier Ten Demons, it would take a lot of work to gather them all.

But considering he might face various powerful foes later, he still nodded in agreement: "Alright, I’ll go gather the materials and come back to you then."

He then quickly headed out towards the forging furnace.

"In such a hurry? Not staying for a drink or two before you leave?"

"Maybe next time. Things are a bit busy recently. I’ll make it up once I’m done," Lin You replied without looking back and soon disappeared around the cavern corner.

Mageon shrugged, ignored him, and continued hammering away, as if forging was life itself for the dwarves.

...

Realm Battlefield.

Within the outpost of the Primordial Realm.

After some preparation, Lin You brought the newly recruited Species Army here, quickly heading toward the Demon Plane.

A day had passed since yesterday’s camp battle.

The battlefield was still bustling with numerous lords from various realms, calling friends and rushing in all directions.

"I wonder how Yan Lie and the others are doing."

Flying above, Lin You watched the crowds below, pondering silently.

Recently, he had been busy developing the duchy and enhancing his power, only to feel time fly by. It seemed over three months had passed since he last parted ways with Yan Lie, Situ Jian, and Ji Yunshuang.

Three months might not have meant much before.

But during this time, the Realm Wars had accomplished much for many, significantly boosting their level-up speed.

Precious resources once obtainable only in the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms could now be exchanged with enemy kills.

Considering Yan Lie and the others’ abilities, they should be preparing for the Saint’s Path by now.

Especially Ji Yunshuang.

With a kingly father backing her up, she’s probably the first to reach Tier Ten, marking the emergence of the twelfth duchy under the Holy Radiance Empire.

This was unimaginable before the war.

However, everything has its pros and cons.

The Realm Wars offered unprecedented growth opportunities, but also brought huge risks.

That lies in the collapse of the Demon Plane.

Once the terrifying monster sealed beneath the Demon Plane is released, it could spell disaster for the Ten Thousand Realms, causing widespread devastation.

So, this year, he has to improve his strength as much as possible, at least to a level where he can protect himself.

With that thought, he didn’t stay any longer, promptly teleporting toward the Demon Plane.

According to Mageon.

To forge Offensive and Defensive Conversion Equipment, core materials from Rock Type, Beast Type, and Spiritual Type Demons are required.

The quickest way to find these demons is to go to the nearby area of the same type of Seventy-Two Celestial Demons.

If he remembers correctly.

The sixty-second ranked Calamity Turtle Ancestor is a defense-type demon, so it’s likely that many Tier Ten and even Tier Eleven defense-type lord demons will appear around it.

"Sixty-second, huh?"

Lin You muttered to himself, gazing at the towering light pillars scattered across every corner of the Demon Plane, and finally locked onto one that exuded a heavy, earth-colored aura.

"Got it!"

With a flash, he hurried towards that light pillar.

The sixty-second rank had already begun to approach the inner region of the Demon Plane, greatly increasing the likelihood of encountering high-tier lords and high-tier demons, and even the possibility of encountering Tier Eleven.

Lin You dared not be careless, keeping his perception fully open while on the move.

If danger was detected, he could immediately escape, ensuring his own safety.

So, he proceeded cautiously all the way forward.

Soon.

He reached a place less than five thousand kilometers from the territory of the Calamity Turtle Ancestor.

Looking around, the surrounding terrain had all turned into mountain ranges made of massive rocks, with a large number of rock demons of various shapes gathering and wandering here, all of which were defense types!

Lin You was thrilled.

But he immediately sensed something was amiss.

Because in the high air not far away, a large number of figures were gathered, divided into two groups facing off from a distance, almost covering the whole periphery.

Amazingly, they were Tier Ten lords from both camps!

Even at the forefront of both groups, there were several terrifying figures standing, seemingly merging with the entire space.

Tier Eleven lords!

Lin You’s expression changed, and he immediately stopped his forward steps, observing from the periphery with immense curiosity.

What on earth could attract so many high-tier lords here, even the rarely seen Tier Elevens?

"Boom——"

Suddenly, a thunderous explosion sounded from deep within the mountains.

At the same time, a dull roar that echoed through the heavens and earth shook the entire air violently.

Lin You couldn’t help looking towards the light pillar several thousand kilometers away.

Vaguely, it seemed he could see countless colossal figures engaged in a frantic battle, even causing the space around the light pillar to collapse.

Could it be an Emperor Level battle?

Or were the high-ranking members of the Realm Alliance attacking the seal guarded by the Calamity Turtle Ancestor?

As he pondered.

The terrifying force of the collision transformed into shockwaves sweeping in all directions.

Then, amidst a rumbling of footsteps, countless rock demons ran out from the depths of the battle, with numerous Tier Ten leader and lord demons among them.

There was even a giant Tier Eleven alligator turtle, its aura terrifying to the extreme.

Lin You was utterly shaken.

He finally understood why these lords were waiting outside.

Before he could react, shouts rang out.

"Take action!"

"Block them!"

Suddenly, all the lords fell to the ground, summoning their species to confront the lord demons directly, with the two camp teams clashing fiercely.

The several Tier Eleven lords even directly swept towards the giant alligator turtle, engaging in an aerial battle, instantly collapsing space, with chaotic currents surging, none of the Tier Ten dared to approach lightly.

Seeing such an intense scene, Lin You immediately snapped back.

Scanning around the battlefield, his gaze landed directly on a D-level lord Rock Armor Dragon in the corner.

The reason he focused on that one was because there was only a single Tier Ten Beast Type lord from the Realm Alliance nearby, who looked not very strong, seemingly no more than three Divine Fragments.

"Let’s go over there."

Saying this to Lingxi beside him, he flashed and appeared behind that person, his waist-level blade infused with the Power of Space, stabbed fiercely toward the opponent.

The Beast Lord, clearing the surrounding demons, turned pale, almost reflexively teleporting, appearing a hundred meters away.

"He actually dodged?"

Lin You was extremely surprised.

He only sensed two Divine Fragments from the opponent.

But the aura was much stronger than the Elemental Lord he encountered before, clearly a King who had advanced to Tier Ten a long time ago, with attributes enhanced to a high level.

Seeing the opponent’s species surrounding him, he no longer held back, waving his big hand, tens of thousands of Plant Army appeared, straight to meet the approaching Beast Army.

"Beast Charge!"

The Beast Lord was clearly a battlefield veteran, showing no panic, directly shouting to the Beast Army.

Roar!!

The beast roars rose and fell, all the beast species were covered with a faint red, speed suddenly increasing, turning into afterimages pouncing on Lin You’s Ancient Tree Legion.

Sharp claws pierced the air, tearing through the Ancient Tree species, leaving deep and immeasurable wounds.

They actually broke through the defense of Ancient Trees in an instant!

Lin You’s eyes narrowed slightly, the Beast Type’s racial talent, attack with tearing effect and ignoring part of the defense, was indeed not to be underestimated.

Right at this moment.

The lord-level Flame Dragon in the distance also focused on them, roaring as it charged over!
