The Witch Hunter System

Chapter 1169: Machinized City Plan

"Not only would the Skymagia Royal Fleet take its anger out on Nightmare, but the Skymagia Royal Family might even present Nightmare to us as a gift," Valefor calmly added.

After all, how could a mighty Divine Lord Powerhouse possibly be satisfied with ruling a single star realm, especially when Divine Lord Powerhouses met the requirement to form their own Star Kingdoms?

In fact, the Skymagia Royal Family would have to offer more than just a mere Nightmare Realm to please him.

Of course, Valefor had no intention of serving anyone, especially witches. Moreover, the Skymagia Royal Family was, in his eyes, incredibly weak. If he wanted to, he could replace it and become the Skymagia Star Kingdom’s new sovereign.

It simply wasn’t qualified to receive his allegiance.

The Skymagia Royal Family would be overjoyed if they could at least sign a non-aggression pact with him. Servitude was simply impossible, but cooperation was still possible.

This time, Valefor wouldn’t mind fighting the Divinesun Star Kingdom for the Skymagia Star Kingdom if it offered enough benefits to move him.

However, even Valefor didn’t know exactly what benefits would move him. He could only await the Skymagia Royal Family’s show of sincerity.

...

Although Vaan had left the Pangea Federation for months, new legends under his name continued to emerge. In the eyes of the ignorant masses, Vaan had never departed on any long journey.

As far as everyone knew, the Overlord had buried himself in secluded research. As such, incredibly knowledge kept appearing in the world.

Periodically, Vaan would have Valefor transcribe the knowledge he obtained and share it with the Pangea Federation.

As such, the Pangea Federation’s heritage became increasingly rich and profound over time.

With continuous production of spirit energy and increasing cooperation with Gehenna, the Pangea Federation developed rapidly, giving rise to talent in various fields.

At the same time, Rank 6 Divine Being was no longer the upper limit for most beings.

The introduction of various Divine-rank cultivation methods, including even Pinnacle Divine-rank cultivation methods, had given rise to numerous geniuses and rising stars.

Although their rate of improvement couldn’t compare to Vaan’s meteoric rise, the Pangea Federation was bound to be filled with many Divine Knights and even more Divine Warriors within a hundred years. ℞ἁŊȯ𝐛Ёʂ

Moreover, this level of growth wouldn’t rely on the Celestial Kingdom’s Divine Inheritance System, which was limited in quantity and restricted in quality.

To achieve Divine Warrior or Divine Knight-level cultivation with just talent and resources within a hundred years was already something most denizens of Chaos compare with.

Evidently, the average talent of Pangeans was actually higher than the average denizen of Chaos. They were only inferior to other beings of noble birth, those with special bloodlines, or those of Holy Land descent.

That said, although the Pangea Federation’s cultivation development was rapid, it was still inferior to the infrastructure development. A mighty being could take a lifetime to develop, but a mighty construct would only take a short time to develop under the right conditions.

With sufficient resources and tools, countless powerful wonders could be realized.

In this regard, the Pangea Federation relied heavily on the Celestial Kingdom’s already developed infrastructures.

Interstellar mining quickly matured with the unending deployment of mining vessels into the Celestial Belt after its opening, allowing vast resources and opportunities to be plundered and brought back to the Pangea Federation for its rapid development.

Several new space colonies and outposts were constructed, forming a secure route between Pangea and the Celestial Belt.

At the same time, the Federation Army regularly patrolled this space region, ensuring local security while discouraging the emergence of space pirates and smugglers.

As long as greed existed, their emergence couldn’t be avoided; they could only be controlled.

Nevertheless, with heavy mining in the Celestial Belt, the values of minerals and rare metals plummeted, far from their former levels.

As such, a major new project became available to the Pangea Federation: Machinized Cities.

One of the more useful pieces of knowledge Vaan brought back to the Pangea Federation was the Machinized City Plan, which utilized the essence of formation, runes, and constructs to create large-scale, moveable steel fortresses.

Not long after this piece of knowledge was introduced, it was immediately put into action.

Every major city in the Pangea Federation was immediately involved in the mechanization plan. Although the scale of the project was unprecedented, consuming enormous resources and time, it was a necessity.

After all, the Pangea Federation had to prepare itself for potential relocation.

Otherwise, if the calamity of the Outerworlders struck early, it would be forced to abandon most of the mortals, taking only the elites to flee.

Moreover, a Machinized City wasn’t just useful for relocation. It also bolstered incredible defensive and offensive capabilities. Even ordinary Divine Lords wouldn’t be able to destroy a fully-functioning Machinized City.

Of course, there was something even more incredible than a Machinized City: a Machinized Planet.

A Machinized Planet was a movable, planetary fortress capable of leaving its home star and wandering the vast cosmos, with a battle potential that could rival that of the Divine Emperor.

Unfortunately, even the mighty Myriad Sea God Palace, with its access to countless worlds, lacked the knowledge to create a Machinized Planet; it only had information about its existence.

After all, the Machinized City Plan for creating a Machinized City was not something the Myriad Sea God Palace produced, even with its long accumulation of knowledge and history.

This was something it had obtained from the Machine Race, or to be more accurate, the Synthari, a sub-group of the Machine Race.

The Syntharis were originally humans, but they pursued the supreme path of metal, ultimately transforming their bodies into part-human, part-machine, or even completely machine.

The Syntharis are said to be extremely powerful.

With just advanced metallurgy and technology, their most powerful steel bodies could even compete with Empyrean-level Body Refiners, absolutely not a force to be trifled with.

Nevertheless, even if Vaan obtained the Machinized Planet Plan, the current Pangea Federation wouldn’t be able to utilize it.

After all, the astronomical amount of resources, time, and manpower required to complete the project was just unrealistic at its current stage of development.

Even if the Pangea Federation halted every other project and focused its resources and manpower, it would still take at least a thousand years to finish. Many changes could occur over such a long period.

More importantly, Pangea was currently undergoing an assimilation process, altering its terrain and mass.

It simply couldn’t initiate the Machinized Planet Plan at all.
