Chapter 917 - 917 Mana Reactor (1/2)

917 Mana Reactor

Countless spells stacked together, turning into a multi-colored flood that continuously crashed against the gate of the Grey Beastmen’s fort.

The metal plates lit up one by one, and soon, the entire wall was lit up, with the blossoming light becoming brighter and brighter.

On the city wall, a large group of Grey Beastmen was frantically casting spells in order to resist, but it didn’t have much effect.

Lin Yun floated in the air with a cold expression, and countless runes were flickering in front of him as another Four-Element Bomb rapidly condensed. After three seconds, the Four-Element Bomb instantly vanished from sight, only leaving behind a long white trail in the air.

“Boom…”

A loud explosion echoed as the entire wall started shaking, the metal plates becoming almost blinding.

Cracks started appearing on the ten-meter-tall entrance, and a few seconds later, a huge explosion echoed as the flood of spells broke through it.

Behind the entrance were numerous alchemy puppets, but they weren’t even able to rush out of the fort before being swept away by the flood of spells.

The horde of sword puppets was like a tidal wave of steel as they rushed inside the Grey Beastmen’s fort. The mage army followed behind them, which was in turn followed by Lin Yun and the others.

The resistance they encountered after going in was very weak. In less than three minutes, the leader of the Grey Beastmen’s fort came out.

“Surrender! We are surrendering! Great Human Powerhouse, we’ve surrendered! Please stop the slaughter and destruction…”

The large group of Grey Beastmen and mechas came out and stood behind the leader, expressing their own surrender.

Lin Yun’s puppets were like a disciplined army as they put all the Grey Beastmen under control.

Those who could control mechas were all Alchemists at the very least, and they were all captured and delivered to the Radiant Fort. Even the high-ranked members of the Grey Beastman Race had to sign a soul contract with Shawn before they could be released.

Three days passed before the Grey Beastman Tribe was completely under control. Every Alchemist had signed a contract with Shawn, and all those of the ruling class had signed particularly harsh soul contracts.

Dunas, the leader of the Grey Beastmen, was cautiously following behind Lin Yun as they walked on the streets of the fort.

“Sir Merlin, ahead is our greatest puppet factory. Most of the components can be made there, and the final assembly is also done there..”

In the entire Grey Beastman Fort, none of the rough buildings that other Beastmen typically lived in could be seen. Instead, it was full of sturdy buildings made of some kind of metal, just like the large cities of his previous life.

A railroad was running through the entire fort, connecting major areas, and special machines kept travelling throughout the fort.

A large number of shops could be seen on both sides, with most of them being related to puppeteering. They sold all kinds of materials, components, mana reactors, and control systems, as well as already finished puppets.

And the most remarkable one was the factory before his eyes with three huge smokestacks and all kinds of machines.

These Grey Beastmen’s delicate bodies made them incapable of doing any heavy lifting, so they had heavy machinery helping them with everything. Cutting parts, polishing, and manufacturing were all done using the machines.

Only the key steps like carving runes or arrays had to be done directly by the Grey Beastmen.

Dunas was only an ordinary Alchemist, and his leadership position had been inherited from his father according to traditions. But he was only a 2nd Rank Archmage and wasn’t considered the strongest among the Grey Beastmen.

This was different from the other Beastmen Tribes, which were always led by the strongest. The Grey Beastmen were simply so enthralled by puppeteering that they didn’t want to waste time overcomplicating something like administration.

Dunas cautiously remained behind Lin Yun, introducing everything within the factory to him.

They kept exploring the factory until Lin Yun suddenly stopped, his eyes staring at something in a corner.

There was a small sphere the size of a human fist that was covered with various lines. The lines were perfectly straight, and when they changed direction, it was always at a right angle.

Usually, all alchemy patterns were drawn in arcs. This would allow energy to pass through unobstructed.

Thus, all arrays were circular or elliptical. Triangular arrays were very rare.
