The boxes that were piled up at one side had all been opened up one by one. They contained huge mechanical parts. Saleen did not recognize what these parts were for, but he knew that they were all made from metal crystallites.

"They are indeed treasures but… we can't use them for now. The two of you, follow me to the warehouse. Show me the latest items that you have salvaged," Saleen said gloomily.

"Master, you cannot take away my things," Nailisi said, as if she had been wronged.

"What are you talking about? Master only wants to organize the items. You only care about how much they are worth, but do you know what they are used for?" The winged skeleton lectured Nailisi.

"Nailisi, that is indeed the case. What would I steal your things for?" Saleen felt strange. His own bonded creature still wished to keep her own private items? Saleen could not bear to tell Nailisi that all her possessions belonged to him.

"Master, you have to return them to me!" There were tears in Nailisi's eyes. She almost did not want to show Saleen the core mechanics from Sky City. Her gut feeling told her that it was important and she knew too little about alchemy, so she still decided to show Saleen. Who knew that Saleen would also want to see the other items after that?

Saleen originally had forty dimension stones. He was left with thirty-eight after using two. He passed half of them to Nailisi. These dimension stones were practically filled with the items that Nailisi had salvaged from the deep sea.

Nailisi's physique was resilient and strong, but all the salvaging still took a toll. The collections were important to Nailisi. She even quarreled with winged skeleton for a while when splitting up what they had salvaged. Now that Saleen also wanted to take a look, she had no choice but to bring him to the secret warehouse under the temple.

In order to build a demon city, Saleen had already expanded this underground warehouse. It was six miles under the temple's teleportation portal. There were tens of levels to the secret warehouse and the area of each level was the approximate size of the temple. After digging away large amounts of rock materials, the area looked empty.

Whatever resources the winged skeleton salvaged, he would use directly to create combat vessels or construct the port. The islands within three-hundred miles of Metatrin City's sea had all been occupied by the winged skeleton's spirits of the dead and they had been used for military reasons. There were very few items that the winged skeleton could take out. He did not have dimension stone either as the death dimension was not as big as the dimension in Saleen's devil's ring.

Saleen was taken aback by Nailisi's collections. In the beginning, there were still a few equipments that were still intact. At the very end, the items were either full of rust or were just very small parts.

Fortunately, every item was valuable in its own way. On a decomposed metal sword, there was a magic symbol that was refined from wrought gold. These tens of grams of wrought gold were worth a fortune on their own. Although the magic sword was already in bad shape, it could still be refined to produce about half a pound of rare metal.


Amongst these materials, most were thundercloud wood and divinecherry wood and they were all arranged nicely by Nailisi. These two types of wood were often used to make boxes in the ancient times. Tey were best used to create elvish bows and arrows or refine low-level spacial equipment.

Very soon, Nailisi filled up an entire warehouse level. The three of them went down to the next level. More than half of Nailisi's dimension stones had yet to be emptied.

Saleen felt helpless and said, "Nailisi, give those broken things to me so I can refine them. If you continue leaving them where they are, you are just wasting the dimension stone's space."

"Master, these are not simply broken things. They were found under thousands of yards below the sea and have been compressed and decomposed for the past ten-thousand years. Even a pile of rust must have its special use. Demons can refine them into something like magic medicine." Seeing that Saleen was about to take away all her 'broken things', she decided to be honest.

"What can they be refined into?!" Saleen pretended to be angry. He knew that Nailisi was not entirely truthful and was trying to outsmart him. This kind of behavior must not be tolerated. Once Nailisi was used to getting things her way, who knew if she might do other unimaginable things in the future?

Nailisi answered obediently, "Master, I saw the armor that Cuisi was wearing. It was refined by Joey right? It was not refined correctly. In the demon dimension, when devils build their cities, they usually choose six strong supreme demons to run the cities for them. These six supreme demons will each possess a powerful army and they will all be equipped with devil armor. A real devil armor must be made from these metals that have not been decomposed for tens of thousands of years."

"Continue," Saleen's tone became gentler.

"Based on magic craftsmanship, alchemy on the demon dimension is not as good as that on the Myers Mainland. The materials found in the demon dimension were more superior than those on Myers Mainland. For example, metals with queer properties such as these are very common on demon dimension. The devil possesses six types of armors and they all require such materials."

"Which six types?"

"Devil's flying armor, devil's light armor, devil's rotten armor, devil's purgatory armor, devil's breaching armor, and devil's emptiness armor. Master, these six armors are very different from each other and they can adapt themselves to different extreme environments. Although Lex's six-winged flying snake armor is powerful, it is nothing compared to these six armors."

"How did you know all this?"

"Master… after you left, I swallowed the remains of half a devil that I had secretly kept. Master, I took it from the temple, but I still cannot bear to eat my last meal. I have achieved the fourth ability, which is devil incarnation. I got hold of much devil knowledge at the same time."

"Devil incarnation? Let me take a look. Does it look the same as on the map?" Saleen's curiosity as a mage had been piqued.

"No, Master, a devil looks really ugly. It has three heads and six arms and is much taller than this bone shelf," Nailisi shook her head. It was not like Saleen was in danger now. No way she was transforming into a devil.

Saleen smiled and did not force Nailisi. Her description was similar to what he saw on the map. He was going to see it sooner or later anyway. If Nailisi was in danger, she would definitely transform into a devil.

"Are you able to refine these six types of armors?"

"Yes, the alchemy in the demon dimension is different from that in the Myers Mainland. Master, I cannot refine weapons like you do. I need a factory, toxic fire and many demon artisans. I can only be responsible for creating the materials and the final enhancements."

"Can humans wear the devil armor?"

"People like Jola and Su will be able to. Black metal grand swordmasters can barely make it. They have enough power, but their physique is unlike a demon. Once they wear the armor, their bodies will be severely damaged. If a zun grand swordmaster fought for one hour in devil armor, he would turn into a puddle of flesh and blood after that."

"In that case, this equipment can only be used for the demon armies." Saleen had some regrets. He tried to create an imitation of spirit snake armor, but it was not as good as the original. Now, this devil armor was better than spirit snake armor, but humans were unable to wear it.

"Master, the demon city will belong to Sister Sika in the future. What are you worried about?"

"Master, a few rare types of spirits of the dead can wear devil armor too," the winged skeleton chimed in from the side. Nailisi rolled her eyes. The winged skeleton was taking advantage of the situation! Once Saleen heard that, he asked Nailisi to help the winged skeleton's soldiers refine armor too.

Saleen suddenly thought back to how Nailisi single-mindedly encouraged Sika to take up the position of Lord of the demon city and realized that she did it to give Saleen assurance. This imp had learned how to please people.

"Tell me, what are the special characteristics of these six types of devil armor? If they are that good, I will provide you with a few mages to help you with your work." Saleen made this promise and Nailisi was pleased. Even if she had her own slaves to help her with her work, refining metal was not an easy task. It was not something that demons were good at. If mages were involved the quality of the devil armor would be more consistent. That would be key to surpassing Lex's spirit snake armors.

No matter how good the spirit snake armor was, it could not contain large-scale equipment. On the other hand, devil armor was the most commonly used equipment in the demon dimension, every devil had devil armies that were one-million strong.

Luckily Nailisi swallowed the body of half a devil and gained the all-important fourth ability. Otherwise… otherwise she would have lost control of Cuisi. Nailisi was fortunate that she was not too late. She could not believe that Cuisi was so lucky as to advance into a supreme demon so quickly.

"… Master, devil's flying armor is an armor that allows the wearer to fly and only demons those more powerful can wear it. Imps and demonic spirits are not able to wear it. Devil's light armor can defend against divine spells and negative magic and is considered to be a heavy armor. Devil's rotten armor is an armor that can grow on the demon's body and need not be worn. It is extremely flexible and the wearer will not feel like he is wearing an armor. It also possesses strong self-healing abilities."

Seeing how closely Saleen was listening, Nailisi continued, "Devil's purgatory armor is an enclosed armor. Even if the demon warrior fell into the purgatory dimension, he will not be affected at all. Devil's breaching armor can be worn by anyone with demon bloodline regardless of abilities. This type of armor is suitable for armies in battle. The demons wearing the armor will be able to instantly sense what their commanding officer's orders are and will be able to react immediately. Devil's emptiness armor is worn by high-level devils. It possesses strong resistance against physical attacks and powerful spells. A devil wearing this armor will still be able to cast his own demon spells."

As Saleen listened to Nailisi elaborate about the characteristics of each devil armor, he was actually taken by surprise. He had thought that magic on the demon dimension was not advanced and so they would not have any special equipment. After hearing what Nailisi said, Saleen finally understood that demon dimension also contained an intelligent civilization. The nature of these six devil armors would still be extremely powerful in the human world.

The devil's breaching armor especially, the wearer would not be able to refuse the commanding officer's orders upon wearing it. Even if the commanding officer ordered the demons to fight against gods, they would still charge forward bravely.

With this armor, the demon army would be a courageous one with high morale all the time. His dream might come true after all. As long as Saleen had enough demons, he would stand a chance of reaching the glorious plains and destroy the Holy See's headquarters.
