Chapter 260: Chapter 260 Steel Giant Soldier and Holy War Puppet

In the end, Rory still couldn’t make up her mind; after all, turning against one’s family is a matter that requires serious consideration.

Although her family wanted to control her and she wanted to break free, it was, after all, her own family. She had grown up within the family, and they had never treated her poorly.

Rory knew that it would take some time before she could truly step out on her own.

Right now, all she wanted was to continue arguing with her family. If she could obtain the rights she desired, that would suffice.

However, Fang Jie couldn’t afford to be unprepared; he needed to upgrade his puppets. After all, he did not currently possess any Gold-level puppet troops.

He was bold in his declaration because he had confidence.

"Are you ready? Then let’s begin the test."

Indeed, the puppet town that Fang Jie had transferred over now needed to face the test to advance to a city.

Of course, the complexity of the test was not very high. It was merely at Hell Level, not the utmost Disaster Level. Fang Jie valued it so much because this territory possessed a very special Talent Ability.

The territory could utilize a vast amount of Resources to accumulate and research, gaining the capability to upgrade troop building blueprints.

Of course, only troop building blueprints could be upgraded, the opportunities were limited, and the required Resources were enormous—beyond what ordinary people could afford. But Fang Jie could easily offer these Resources.

However, without advancing to city level, it wouldn’t be possible to reach Gold level.

The test was very straightforward, even easy, but since Fang Jie’s own Undead Troop had undergone the test, there were no real benefits. The contents of the Treasure Box were also of little value.

Next, without any hesitation, Fang Jie invested large quantities of Resources, thanks to the various preparations made in the early stages. As a result, this research and upgrading only took three days to succeed.

But the next time would require a lot longer, as this upgrade capability also demanded cooldown time.

Fang Jie did not hesitate to apply it directly to his Alchemy Workshop. The moment the Alchemy Workshop was upgraded successfully, a new troop was available: the Steel Giant Soldier.

Steel Giant Soldier Level 10: Level (Gold) Skills: Giant Strength, Hardness, Self-repair, Advanced Sword and Shield, Energy Beam, Magic Emission, Earthquake Skill

Manufacturing requires: 200 units of Refined Iron Ingots, 200 units of Refined Copper Ingots, 200 units of precision Metal Parts, 10 units of Storage Crystal, 1 unit of Aggregation Energy Core, 300,000 units of Gold Coin

"This thing is pricier than the Skeleton Flying Dragon and can’t undergo Fission, but let’s create one to see."

Although it couldn’t undergo Fission, which made the cost-performance ratio lower for Fang Jie, this was related to his own setup. Having a powerful puppet force to pull out to cover his identity in some special circumstances wasn’t a bad idea.

Once it was created, Fang Jie understood why it was called a Giant Soldier. Its sheer stature alone reached a height of ten meters, towering over any troop he currently had at hand.

Even the Skeleton Flying Dragon, when it spread its wings, didn’t appear as large.

Moreover, this creature was constructed entirely out of metal. If it weren’t for special weight-reduction runes, just walking on the ground would cause it to sink.

Its gigantic size brought with it a terrifying increase in Strength. The Skeleton Flying Dragon’s Strength was nothing compared to that of the Steel Giant Soldier; even two or three dragons grappling together wouldn’t overpower it.

And with puppets, their defensive power and resistance have always been incredibly formidable.

In close-quarters combat, the ordinary troop was no match at all. The huge steel greatsword and shield made for an integrated offense and defense. Its eyes could shoot an Energy Beam, like a laser weapon, which was not a small threat.

Magic Emission allowed it to project its own strength outward, similar to other troops using Skills. However, this emission was not a Skill, so its power was much weaker and its control far inferior.

But no matter what, it also filled the gap where the puppets’ long-range attacks were not strong enough.

The last ability, Earthquake Skill, Fang Jie decided to stop experimenting after trying it once. This skill was truly one for the battlefield. The shaking ground could easily disrupt the enemy’s formation stability.

Similarly, used against a wall, it could cause tremendous damage to the structure.

"What a terrifying killing machine; using it on the battlefield is too frightening. However, if it’s used for personal protection, the effect is still inadequate. It seems that my Troop Construction Diagram really can’t be kept after all."

Fang Jie selected a set of blueprints to compose, then used his own Troop Construction Diagram.

A moment later, a new diagram appeared: the Holy War Puppet at Gold level.

Holy War Puppet Level 10: Level (Gold) Skills: Hardness, Self-repair, Flying, Advanced Combat Skills, Magic Emission, Feathered Arrow, Break Magic Strike

Manufacturing requires: 20 units of Refined Iron Ingot, 20 units of Refined Copper Ingots, 30 units of precision Metal Parts, 5 units of Storage Crystal, 1 unit of Aggregation Energy Core, 100,000 units of Gold Coin

The Holy War Puppet was much cheaper, consuming only about a tenth of the materials and being faster to construct.

But that didn’t mean the Holy War Puppet was weak; on the contrary, it was very powerful. Similar in size to an ordinary person, it had two golden wings on its back and was clad in gleaming golden armor, looking very majestic and holy.

This puppet remedied the previous limitation of slow puppet speeds; the Holy War Puppet moved very fast and had extremely agile combat skills. To those unaware, it might be mistaken for a powerful humanoid warrior inside.

The Holy War Puppet also had the ability to fly and perform offensive and defensive maneuvers with sword and shield. Magic could be externally emitted.

In a critical moment, the wings could also serve as a shield, with feathers being shot out as arrows. When it came to protecting an individual, the results were remarkably effective.

"Who would’ve thought that something that existed only on paper could be turned into such a powerful troop."

Fang Jie was very satisfied: "Let’s create a few more; they look much better than skeletons." Fang Jie himself wanted his guards to appear more presentable, and this puppet fit the bill.

However, he couldn’t just sell these anyhow. After all, once sold, they would no longer obey his commands.

With such a powerful presence for protection, it would be highly difficult to defeat in the future should they become his enemies. Besides, why would one sell such precious items?

Allocating a few quotas to Rory was only to perfect his own setup.

Besides, if Rory wanted these, she would have to pay a hefty price. "Now, we wait and see when Rory will finally be free from the shackles of her family," Fang Jie thought quietly to himself.
