Chapter 391

Hephaestus eagerly began to flip through the method of making the holy cloth, nodding and praising as he read.

"I have to admire these mortal craftsmen's forging skills, and the special nature of this holy cloth, which can be activated with the power of the small universe, and can also be upgraded with the power of theology or human blood; this is indeed formidable." Hephaestus nodded as he spoke.

Among Athena's eighty-eight holy cloths, only twelve gold cloths incorporated a large amount of orichalcum god steel, while the other holy cloths merely mixed in a small amount of orichalcum god steel, as well as starlight sand.

Because it was stained with the goddess's small universe, after experiencing the goddess's divine blood infection, the holy cloth can evolve, but this also requires the saint to simultaneously generate a strong small universe to cause resonance.

In this world, the burning of the small universe's divine power can almost exhaust the divine power to the maximum.

"No problem, Lord Luode, I can make some god cloths for you, and even use my blood or your blood to make an eternal god cloth." Hephaestus said.

"There's no need to make an eternal god cloth; the wearing requirement for god cloths is at minimum an eighth-sense small universe, and being able to produce something comparable to a gold cloth is enough." Athena said.

As expected of a fire god, even though he is a fire god from another world, his mastered forging craft is not to be underestimated.

"The holy cloth I forge will definitely be somewhat better than the gold cloth." Hephaestus said.

This world's Athena, under her command. The twelve gold cloths of the gold saints have their gleaming golden color because they have received the power of the sun.

In Lord Luode's space, there is indeed an immensely powerful sun god, whose emitted sunlight can just provide the holy cloth with golden radiance, thereby achieving the effect of the gold cloth.

The forging of gold cloths mixes in some starlight sand, while the holy cloth I forge can entirely use god steel; Lord Luode has plenty of these materials, more than enough.

Moreover, the makers of the gold cloths are merely artisans from Mu Continent, while the subsequent holy cloth forging work will be personally completed by me, this fire god.

The difference between them is not just a little; even I cannot exert full force, for if I did, humans would be unable to wear the armor I forged.

Even so, the battle clothing he forges is absolutely far above the level of the gold cloth.

"Hephaestus, this time I also obtained Hades' underworld god cloth, as well as ordinary underworld cloth."

The underworld cloth houses the power of the demon heart; even if the chosen person is an ordinary individual.

With the help of the demon star's power, they can instantly reach the level of gold saints; I think you can study these things, and when I train warriors later it will be more convenient.

Luode finished speaking and handed over the previously collected underworld cloths, including Hades' underworld god cloth, Hypnos, and Thanatos' underworld body cloth, all to Hephaestus.

Actually, the selection of underworld warriors is also quite good; at least it doesn't require me to painstakingly train warriors, and Athena's saint training method is indeed effective.

Their combat strength is also strong, especially the gold saints, but you must start training them from childhood, whereas underworld warriors are not so troublesome; they only need to inherit the demon star's power.

Moreover, underworld warriors can also become stronger through self-cultivation in the future,

"These armors are filled with death attribute; their forging material should be something imbued with death attribute, this state is similar to a divine power blessing." Hephaestus observed with interest the underworld cloths Luode gave him, even including Hades' underworld god cloth.

These armors, in terms of quality, are slightly inferior to Athena's gold cloths; only the armors of Hades and the twin gods surpass the gold cloths, having used some orichalcum steel.

As for the armors of other underworld warriors, they should be made of the same material, but the bestowal of the demon star makes them more solid.

"These are underworld black gems, a specialty of the underworld, a peculiar ore nurtured by death power; these underworld cloths are made from these underworld black gems." Luode said.

Now the Underworld is like his own backyard; in the deepest part of the Underworld, Luode also discovered a large amount of Underworld black gemstones.

This is a crystal of deathly aura and the Underworld King's divine power, abundantly produced in the Underworld. Hence, the Underworld fighters possess many skeletal Underworld armor foot soldiers.

"Lord Luode, this material is not bad; perhaps it can be added to your fighters' armor." Hephaestus said.

If all of it were made with divine steel, only warriors possessing the Seventh Sense could wear these armors.

If we want to equip warriors with the Sixth Sense with suitable battle attire, we would need to use some low-grade mortal materials.

These Underworld black gemstones will suffice; as for the deathly power on them, Hephaestus also has a way to remove it, or to incorporate it as part of the armor's power.

"Then I'll give you these Underworld black gemstones; there are plenty of them, you can take as much as you need, and there are also some other mortal materials." Luode said.

"No problem, Lord Luode, I'll take care of it!"

"By the way, regarding the power of the Demon Star, I also thought of a solution." Hephaestus stroked his chin, looked at Luode, and said.

"Really? Tell me, what solution do you have?" Luode asked.

If the power of the Demon Star could be replicated, then cultivating one's own fighters would be much easier.

"Lord Luode! In this world, the Underworld King Hades uses his own divine power, and then blesses these holy garments; it's similar to our world, where we bless mortal heroes or demigod heroes."

"Grant them the ability to wield magic; for example, back when Qutuosi subjugated Arisi, we gods basically all lent a hand."

You can use your own divine power, combined with the divine cosmos, to bless these armors.

"Let them possess extraordinary power; mortal warriors who don the armor will receive a boost." Hephaestus said.

Essentially, the Underworld King Hades also bestowed divine power upon the 108 Underworld garments, producing the Demon Star, except that it was due to the blessing of the divine cosmos.

But this blessing varies in strength; for example, only the three titans and a few named fighters can truly match the Gold Saints.

Just like in the ancient Greek world, except they used divine power directly, without mixing in the divine cosmos.

This method Luode can indeed easily replicate; he can use his own divine power plus the cosmos to bless these armors, so that their owners instantly gain great power upon donning the armor.

Hephaestus's plan is not bad.

"That's actually a great idea! Then start forging; I'll give you some orichalcum."

Also some titan god-iron, and the Underworld black gemstones, plus Athena's star-silver gauze, demon iron, evil iron, and orichalcum ingots.

"Once you finish casting the prototypes, I will bless these armors with divine power and the cosmos." Luode said.

His special ability can replicate star-silver sand and give it to Hephaestus to use for forging low-grade armor.

Besides that, there are even some demon iron and evil iron from the Burning Legion, as well as some metals from the world of Azeroth.

However, the grade of these materials is low, so they can only be used to forge mortal armor.

"Lord Luode, if you want to forge battle attire with a light attribute, it would be best to have your sun god come help."

If that sun god comes to this world and awakens the divine cosmos, his strength should also increase greatly.

"His solar divine power can instantly grant the holy garments sacred solar power, emitting a golden glow." Hephaestus said.

Hearing this, Yatianna's eyes lit up; she hadn't expected Luode to also have a sun god, and from Hephaestus's tone it seems not weak. If so, then for this commission to achieve transcendence, she would be more confident; Luode this time will let you know why I am called the goddess of wisdom! You must obtain the power of Apsus and advance to the primordial god.

"You mean Herios? Having him help forge your armor is fine, but I'm not sure if letting him awaken the divine cosmos would work." Luode stroked his chin and said.

There's no way; although Herios is now a sun god, he himself lacks a physical form, being merely a giant fireball. Whether he can awaken the divine cosmos remains unknown, because he too is an incorporeal entity without a body of his own.

"Is there any problem with that sun god? Luode, can you tell me about it?" Cheng hu Shazhi asked.

"That is a life I created; initially it was merely a giant fireball, then it continually devoured various kinds of magical flames, until finally it devoured a sun god."

"Thus he became a true sun god, but he lacked a divine body of his own. He was merely a pure energy lifeform." Luode gave Yatianna a brief explanation of the situation.

"I see, so he's lacking a divine body, right?" Yatianna asked, a faint smile appearing at the corner of her mouth.

"Exactly, Chengdu Shaozhi, do you have any solution?" Luode asked.

"You've come to the right person. First, even without a physical form, he can still awaken his God Cosmo, as long as he possesses solar divine power within him."

"We will first let him awaken his God Cosmo, then we can let him obtain a human body through reincarnation, and then nurture that human body with his own God Cosmo and divine power."

"As long as the god's soul remains within it, this body will infinitely evolve toward a divine body."

"Moreover, since he has no physical form to begin with, his energy and his soul are equivalent to his body." Yatianna Chengdu Shaozhi said.

"She has also seen bodiless gods before, for example that Superior God."

"A god who has entered the will of the gods, as long as he obtains a human body, can infinitely evolve toward a divine body."

"Moreover, due to this sun god's uniqueness, the human body he takes over, because of its tremendous energy, can evolve all the way to a true divine body."

"Hahaha! This is indeed a good plan. I was originally unsure whether he could awaken his God Cosmo, but since you say so, I'll summon him shortly."

"Then I'll help him awaken his God Cosmo, and then let Helios and the Fire God Hephaestus work together to forge the armor."

"After we reach that world, we'll then find him a suitable body." Luode said.

"Lord Luode! I'll start working right away; I don't know how many sets of this armor you need, or what style requirements you have?" Hephaestus, the Fire God, asked.

"Let's make them in the shape of animals! First, make over a hundred sets of low-tier armor, each not weaker than the Silver Cloth, and ensure the protective coverage exceeds 90% of the body."

"Then forge twenty-four sets of high-tier armor, all of them reaching the level of the Gold Cloth."

"Then forge the four strongest sets of Heavenly King Armor, making them approach the God Cloth infinitely, with each armor's strength at least three times that of the Gold Cloth—can you do that?" Luode asked.

"If the low-tier armor ever falls short, we can simply forge more later; the most important thing is that the few strongest sets of armor must at least match the trifling trinkets Saturn casually creates, needing to be three times the strength of the Gold Cloth."

"Hearing this, Yatianna rolled her eyes helplessly, thinking, 'My Gold Cloth is just your unit of measurement!' 'No problem, Lord Luode; leave it to me. To be honest, even if you demanded all the armor be made three times stronger than the Gold Cloth, I'd have no issue.'" The Fire God said.

"With such excellent materials, if he, the strongest artisan of the heavens, the Fire God himself, cannot achieve three times the strength of the Gold Cloth, he might as well cut his throat and commit suicide."

"No need, just forge the four strongest sets for me, and also make four roughly similar God Swords to match those four sets of strongest armor."

"As for power, if a Seventh Sense warrior wields these God Swords, a single strike should easily cleave a Gold Cloth—just follow that standard." Luode said.

"Now that we have the Four Heavenly Kings' armors, we must also have the matching holy swords; the requirement is simply that a single sword can easily cleave a Gold Cloth."

"No problem, Lord Luode; then I'll take my leave—please send me back. I must begin the forging work immediately." The Fire God said.

"On Luode's personal space, the Little Garden Star, there is also a forge furnace burning with powerful divine fire, which Luode built especially for the Fire God."

"Luode nodded, waved his hand, and sent the Fire God into his personal space, preparing a large amount of materials for him."

"At the same time, the Fire God took away Athena's God Cloth, added Luode's special metal, and began reforging and upgrading it; as for the Fire God, the Love Goddess, and the future Sun God Helios's God Cloths, he will later have the Fire God forge them, first letting him practice with these mortal armors."

"Luode! I suspect you're targeting my Gold Saints; why must everything be measured against my Gold Saints?" Chengdu Shaozhi asked, hands on hips, staring at Luode.

"The low-tier armor being at the level of the Silver Cloth is fine; the high-tier armor being at the level of the Gold Cloth is also fine."

"But have you made a mistake? I can tolerate the strongest Four Heavenly Kings' armor having three times the defense and all-around capabilities of the Gold Cloth."

"But each person also gets a holy sword; a Seventh Sense warrior wielding that sword can cleave my Gold Cloth in a single strike—this is clearly aimed at me!" "Hahaha! Don't be angry, after all, this time's imagined enemy is your Saints! Moreover, these warriors will in the future be loyal not only to me but also to you, thus they are equivalent to your soldiers." Luode said.

"He would only use it occasionally himself."

"Tch! Though you make sense, this time I cannot bring any of my Saints with me." Chengdu Shaozhi said.

"If I let my Saints deal with those invading enemies, with those evil gods attacking Earth, they would unleash unimaginable combat power."

But if we let them go to another planet, even fight against ourselves, battle with fellow Saints, that would be making things difficult for them.

It would even lower the morale of his own Saints; Luode happened to be training new fighters, so he didn't bring his own Saints.

After settling the matter of the Fire God, Luode came before the Love Goddess, preparing to awaken her divine cosmo.

"Love Goddess! Next, I will awaken your divine cosmo."

"Lord Luode, I eagerly await this." The Love Goddess came obediently before Luode, knelt on one knee, and said with a charming expression.

Luode felt a bit of anticipation; after awakening this world's divine cosmo, how would the Love Goddess's divine authority change? Divine cosmo ignited on Luode's fingertip, he touched it to her brow, and began helping her awaken her divine cosmo.

In an instant, another powerful divine cosmo burst forth; the Love Goddess also smoothly entered the will of the gods and comprehended her own divine cosmo.

At the same time, a pink energy burst from the Love Goddess's body, her appearance changed, her face becoming more beautiful and charming.

The Love Goddess, already tall and slender, now had skin that became finer and smoother, her figure exhibiting perfect golden ratio proportions.

Her brown hair turned peach-pink, and she donned a pink long robe, exuding an extremely special charm.

Even the scent emanating from her body shook Luode's heart and mind, making him unable to resist wanting to embrace her and cherish her deeply.

Perhaps tonight he could indulge the Love Goddess.

"Hmph! What a powerful charm! You should be called the Goddess of Charm." Cheng Hu Sha Zhi snorted coldly and spoke.

Just like the Love Goddess she knew.

"Hehe! Lord Luode, my divine authority has been further amplified; now even if they are gods, I can make them fall in love with each other, even make their love full of suspicion and doubt, and even betrayal!" (End of chapter)
