Chapter 1074 Making Weapons!
"Let me stay here for a while, I have to do a few things," he paused, looking around before adding, "I'll give you a few blueprints, deliver them to the artisans, and let them work on the essential pieces. If they meet anything they can't make, leave these for me to do."
"This…" she blinked while her mind realised something, "do you plan to stay here for a long time?"
"One few days," he didn't look at her while examining the mountains, "make sure they built as many parts as they can. Our survival odds depend on these…"
"Ok," she got the blueprints he gave her, turned around before pausing for a second, "take care of yourself, will you?"
"Don't worry, we aren't in any danger," he paused here while muttering to himself, "at least for now…"
Thinking that the enemy would leave them alone and trapped here without harassing them was delusional. The enemy would give them little time before they'd start sending lots of monsters here to wear them down.
They had no choice but to try to penetrate through the mountainous walls around them. Without breaking through, nothing would work.
William gave her complicated blueprints, ones that he never shared with anyone before, not even his guild. These were quite advanced, having lots of complicated and sophisticated mechanisms, ones that would require more than Artisans to do it.
He knew they could forge around eighty percent of the entire structure, but the remaining twenty percent was all that mattered. Without these, these weapons wouldn't show their prowess at all.
As for himself, he decided to focus on doing something else. During the past events, he lost Charley and had the other three monstrous weapons of his suffering lots of damage.
His spirit power increased exponentially. He could now control around ten of these scary monsters.
"It's good that I gathered tons of materials from Lara's city before coming here," he decided to go all out, and make seven more monstrous weapons this time. Not to mention he planned to make many more flying weapons.
By his current level of power, he could control thousands of these weapons. He planned to prepare better for this, making everything he could before starting to move.
As the masters inside listened to his orders, the king and other big masters began to discuss what to do. The scout reports came to confirm what Anjie relayed on William's behalf. They were entrapped, totally surrounded from all directions by huge walls of mountains, filled to the brim with monsters and dark masters.
They couldn't tell how strong they really were, but in such a huge gathering of the enemy, it was expected to find lots of strong enemies out there.
Their main puzzlement didn't come from the enemies nor from their preparations, but from their ally and friend; William.
"Did you get any ideas from the blueprints my daughter brought?" The king was in his tent, while the big names of his kingdom's masters, including many city leaders and formidable reclusive masters, were standing around.
The king was standing as well, in front of a small rounded table, where William's original blueprints were scattered.
"Ahem, we have ideas and such…"
"Ideas?" the king turned to Sloth, feeling like he was speaking with young masters, not the formidable and most capable ones of his kingdom.
"These are… Pretty advanced and complicated, my liege," another master cleared his throat, knowing how awkward this might seem, but he got to answer the king and explain things over to him, "we can understand almost eighty percent of them, but the other twenty… It's like someone mixed magic with forging, something that doesn't exist in the first place."
"Interesting…" the king looked again at these scrolls, feeling more admiration towards the one who made them, "make sure to get a few copies and keep these for our next generations to learn from. As for now, keep a close eye on him when he comes back, record every single move or word of his, got it?"
"Yes, Your Majesty," all of them bowed, knowing that the king was doing this for the kingdom's sake.
As for every one of them, they all felt the itch to learn about the value and hidden techniques behind making these weird things. Even after reading everything, they couldn't get a single idea about what was the final weapon William was trying to make here.
If not for Anjie stating clearly about this, saying that William mentioned big human weapons, they'd even not guessed about the end result of all these scrolls and blueprints.
As everyone went on to work over these things, doing exactly as William said, few also went ahead to keep a close eye on him.
The king wanted to know why he locked himself away and wanted to be alone. At the same time, he also sent many scouts everywhere around, while giving orders for various capable masters to start putting different plans for offence and defence.
Everyone knew how bad their current situation was. As William guessed, they all knew their top problem lay in how to get out of there. They came from a portal, and there wasn't any way out from around here.
Panther tried to use his blood to open the portal again, dropping his blood over the same spot he appeared first at. But nothing happened. And that meant there was a portal somewhere, leading out from this world.
Few suspected this being a pocket world, and others suspected this to be in the second continent. But no one had a clue about where they were, even William didn't know, and didn't care.
He was now busy forging the monstrous weapons of his. Putting in mind the upcoming severe war, and other wars that seemed to be as intensive and deadly as this, he decided to make the strongest weapons he could forge at this stage and world.
"I'll take inspiration from him…" The first idea that popped into his mind was to mimic the Black Phantom.
