Baator, Capital of the Chthonian Empire Anor Londo, Imperial Palace, Several Days Later
I was in my secluded place in the Sanctus Imperialis of Imperial Palace, where I was looking at the Divine Spark of the Regalzeva after the Architect did what he wanted with his body as he was constructing his perfect living mechanical body.
I got the Divine Spark sooner than I had expected and could now extract the Laws of Destruction from it.
I used the Laws of Devouring on the Divine Spark as I started extracting the Laws of Destruction.
[Laws are being absorbed.] [Laws of Destruction have been detected.] [Law Comprehension of Law of Destruction has reached 15%…28%…35%…47%…56%] [Law Comprehension of Law of Destruction has reached 58%.]
I revealed a small smile as I had extracted a lot from it.
“No wonder Regalzeva was strong, and his attacks were far more destructive than normal Mighty Stage God’s should be.”
I muttered to myself as I grew stronger once again.
Now the only thing I needed to do, was to raise my Demonic Energy Reserves slowly. I have comprehended a lot of laws, and several of them were at somewhat a high comprehension rate. However, my Demonic Energy Reserves were still lagging behind.
Increasing them was hard at this stage; the natural way of getting older was way too slow for me; meditation could be of some use, but small, and then there were methods of artificial increasement of the Energy Reserves by using potions, pills, or other treasures.
“My comprehension of the Dark Light is at 43%, and Slaughter is at 14%. With the addition of Laws of Destruction and Devour, I should be able to easily reach Dimensional-Class after comprehending the Laws and mastering them to at least Advanced Mastery.”
I have said as I was thinking about my future advancement.
“That would be the most suitable course of action indeed.”
Said an elderly male voice as I turned around and saw an elderly man with white hair and beard, wearing a double-piece white suit with a vest, as he held a cane in his right hand.
“So you have finished construction of your body already?”
I asked a rhetorical question instead.
“As expected, it went according to the plan.”
Said Architect as he nodded his head.
“Now that you have your body constructed… how strong are you currently?”
I asked as I looked at Architect, barely tablet o sense anything from him.
“Mighty Stage God of Innate God. I can perfectly control all of my energy and my combat prowess. To evolve even further, I will need to devour and assimilate all Evies.”
Stated the Architect with great indifference.
I already expected something like this.
Architect embarged on the more evolutionary path, as to advance even further, he not only needed Divine Sparks but also assimilate beings of the same species or at least similar species.
“Excellent, now on the surface, show your strength as the pinnacle of the Greater God, and you can start to assume the position as General Matrix of the Mechanicum.”
Architect nodded at this as it was something excepted.
“After Regalzeva’s death, Evies would remain more on their planet and focus more on their ongoing war with Etouldes. This would give us unhindered progress on mining resources of the Earth Plane of its galaxies.”
I said.
“I have already notified Lord High Admiral, and we are currently coordinating in progress. Within a few centuries, we should have mined all resources in the entire Earth Plane. By my calculations, if used currently, among other things, then we can expand our fleet to 100,000 Voidships, including several Space Fortresses of Phalanx-Class, and probably even reconstruct the Black Stone Fortress.”
Stated Architect. Even though I was mainly copying blueprints of the Solar Federation Voidships, mine was way bigger and had more firepower and additional gadgets to them. So to construct even a single one, a lot of resources were needed.
In truth, Earth Plane wasn’t that big; it housed only several tens of galaxies, and many of them were rather small and poor in resources, but it was still a treasure trove for the rapid expansion of the Empire.
“Excellent, always focus on recyclation of the resources and old tech. Pollution sucked in the Immaterius Universe, then who knows how would it look in the magical version.”
I stated as Architect nodded.
Chthonian Empire was, how would one say it… eco-friendly.
For several reasons, mainly because I have seen in my past life entire planets get pretty f***** up by waste and garbage, and pollution destroyed them entirely. Also, I personally hated wasting up resources, so I preferred to recycle old tech, obsolete voidships, and so on.
With advanced Arcanotech, Empire could easily reach a recyclation rate of 100%.
