Linde shook his head, dismissing the unrealistic thoughts from his mind and focusing on the core issue.

The existing small cores can be used for weapon development, whether to enhance cold weapons or to create small firearms.

As for large cores...

Linde now has two ideas: one is to use it in industry or in fortresses, making it the power supply center of the fortresses.

Second, it's a man's dream: a giant machine!

Both robots and heavy tanks are acceptable.

However, the second idea is still too far off; it's just something to think about.

The first one is still worth considering.

If possible, he plans to use his new castle as a test site to load the entire large core into it and build an inexhaustible magic fortress!

I'm a genius!

Lind had already begun to imagine what it would be like to possess such an impregnable fortress.

When the time comes, we will mass-produce the small cores and equip them to the army, creating a powerful powered armored legion. Even the Knights will tremble at the sight of them.

Putting aside his daydreams, Linde knew that things had to be done step by step, and one couldn't rush things.

Upon entering the mansion, Nix was already up and studying with Gerald.

The fact that her tail wasn't wagging meant that she was completely focused on understanding the contents of the book.

Ignoring the two, Lind returned to his bedroom, intending to study the sanctuary emblem that Leonis had sent him.

When Linde first received the emblem, he felt a strange attraction, as if something inside was drawing him in.

Linde picked up the badge and examined it carefully.

Whether it's the exquisite feather pattern or the indistinct face of the Holy One, they are not much different from normal Holy Symbols.

The only odd thing is that this emblem is printed from two pieces of unknown metal sandwiched together, and it is much thicker than other holy emblems.

Linde stared at it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. Moreover, this strange attraction persisted and even seemed to be intensifying.

So Linde activated the deconstruction halo, intending to examine the materials and manufacturing process of this thing.

You won't believe it until you see it, and what you find will shock you.

Linde was so startled that he almost dropped the holy emblem from his hand.

In a place unseen by others, a line of words appeared in Linde's mind:

Material composition:

God-killing Metal (Type 2)

Light Vein Divine Blood

"???"

Linde knew his deconstruction aura wouldn't go wrong...wow, those two things are incredible.

Let's not even talk about the God-Slaying Metal. It looks like something from a pre-civilization. Type II has already been released. Besides, who would dare to slay a god these days?

If Lind hadn't witnessed the power of the gods, he would have truly believed it.

And this divine blood of light...

It should be noted that the God of Light, Lucius, is the Holy God in the mouths of the Holy Light Cult, also known as the Lord of the Light Veins.

It goes without saying where this divine blood of light came from and whose body it came from.

"Are churches these days resorting to such shocking tactics?"

The church creates holy symbols from the blood of God and distributes them to believers, thereby strengthening people's faith in God...

Linde guessed that the divine blood of the light veins inside must be the thing that had been attracting him all along.

Touching the holy emblem, Lind disassembled it and easily picked up the top layer of god-slaying metal.

The divine blood of light was lying quietly inside.

Linde tried to check the state of the divine blood by tilting it, but no matter whether it was tilted, upright, or even upside down, the drop of divine blood remained unmoved.

"Such peculiar properties?"

Linde's curiosity was growing, and he wanted to uncover the secrets of these two things.

So Linde locked the doors and windows, minimized the activation aura, and raised his current physical condition to its highest level.

Then, first use the Deconstruction Aura on the Godslayer Metal.

In an instant, a powerful force swept through Linde's mind, as if Linde had arrived in a wild and untamed land from the beginning of time.

Nothing exists, everything is in chaos, there is nothing in sight, yet it seems like everything exists—that is the state of this world.

In this very place, Linde saw two glowing beings...fighting?

The battle was extremely fierce, with both sides suffering serious injuries, until one of the figures lifted Lind up and killed the other.

God-Slaying Metal was thus born.

After countless years, the world was born, and he became a part of it, buried deep underground.

Until one day, people who couldn't see its face dug it out from the deep strata of the earth.

Then came some actions that Linde couldn't understand. He was transformed into a weapon, or more accurately, a ship. He was carried into the sky by people at the bow of the ship, crashed into the kingdom of gods, pierced the body of the gods, and then fell silent again.

Later, he was pulled out again, and then thrown into a furnace, where he was forged into his current form.

After reading the entire lengthy story, Lin De felt a mix of trepidation and admiration.

Wow, these people from a pre-civilization are really fierce, they just went straight for it!

Looking at the divine blood before him, Lin De hesitated. He had already learned many secrets he shouldn't have known from the God-Slaying Metal. What else was hidden in this divine blood of light veins?

In the end, Linde decided to take a look and see what he would gain from analyzing the blood of the gods.

Linde activated his Deconstruction Aura again and tried to touch the Light Vein Divine Blood with his finger.

Instead of the overwhelming memory that had flooded his mind, nothing happened.

"Huh? What's going on?"

This was the first time Linde had encountered a situation that would render the aura effect ineffective.

"That's not right. According to my previous analysis, gods shouldn't be stronger than the system I have. It shouldn't be..."

Before Linde could finish speaking, the divine blood that should have been on the God-Slaying Metal disappeared.

Instead, Lind's consciousness directly immersed itself in the somewhat familiar bubble tide, arriving at the location of the system.

The colorful distant scenery around them hadn't changed much, and the surroundings remained as quiet as before.

The only difference here is that the previously vanished Divine Blood of Light has reappeared in front of the polyhedron that symbolizes the system.

Linde received a system notification at that moment:

Detected... Light Vein Divine Blood...

System upgrade...ready

whether

"ah?"

The system upgrade actually requires divine blood?

Linde turned to the upgrade materials section that had previously been marked with a question mark, and found that the question mark had changed to this:

Upgrade materials:

god

? ? ?

Linde was now completely bewildered. Was there anything other than a god that could upgrade the system?

Moreover, the required material is a god, and we only have a drop of divine blood. Is that enough?

"Never mind, I don't care anymore."

Linde didn't care anymore; let God be God.

Yes was selected on the system.

In an instant, the system absorbed the drop of divine blood and emitted a bright white light.
