“Are you setting up an array?”
Sensing the interwoven array energies within his territory, Chen Fan asked.
The aura was incredibly stable and substantial.
It must be Baxia who had set up the array today.
“Yes, we are.”
“Baxia sister excels in defensive arrays, so I'm helping her set up some defensive barriers today.”
“But we have so few suitable materials within the territory.”
“Baxia sister can set up arrays even without materials, but they won't be as powerful.”
Medusa nodded, explaining.
“Let's go to an auction in a couple of days, we'll pick up some materials then.”
Gazing at the vast territory, Chen Fan felt overwhelmed. How much material would it take to cover the entire area with arrays?
Moreover, besides defense arrays, he also wanted to set up various killing arrays, concealment arrays, and most importantly, spirit gathering arrays.
The spiritual energy in this era was not very dense, and various factions had established spirit gathering arrays, attracting and stealing spiritual energy, making it even scarcer.
Therefore, Chen Fan also wanted to establish powerful spirit gathering arrays, competing with surrounding major forces for spiritual energy.
He had experienced the power of spirit gathering arrays today at the Wind Clan.
The spiritual energy there was far more potent than the outside world's.
“Don't worry too much, Master.”
“Your life is just beginning, we can develop this place slowly.”
Medusa said comfortingly.
“I understand.”
Chen Fan nodded.
In fact, he was already crushing all his peers.
It wasn't realistic to expect to match a centuries-old family in one breath.
However, with the system, he wanted to do everything better, more perfectly.
He had gathered so many exotic beauties in his company, in such a short time.
He knew he was destined for greatness, and he wouldn't be able to stay low-key for long.
“Tonight, I'll study Earth Magic thoroughly, and then I'll take charge of building the protective walls.”
“You can handle the arrays on the walls.”
Chen Fan said, after some thought.
He would build tall walls around his territory.
Then, Baxia could simply set up arrays along the walls, making it much easier.
He could add and refine the arrays within the territory later.
The most important thing now was the defense arrays and the concealment arrays.
Chen Fan, who mastered all the magic elements, wasn't worried about the massive project of building walls.
Earth magic was most adept at defense.
All he needed to do was study Earth magic diligently.
“Go ahead and get busy.”
With these words, Chen Fan walked towards the pavilion, returning to his room.
“What is the Restoration Master's gift…?”
Chen Fan was incredibly curious.
Upon entering his room, Chen Fan took out the treasure chest.
“There’s a seal?”
“Is this a test for me?”
“A true master indeed. He even makes a gift mysterious.”
“But this gift must be something he thought of on the spot.”
“Or maybe this was a precious treasure to him?”
Sensing the seal on the treasure chest, Chen Fan laughed.
Connecting with the system, white light erupted from Chen Fan's palm, instantly erasing the seal.
At that moment, Master Gu, who had just returned home, felt a tremor in his body and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
“This is… directly erasing my seal?”
Master Gu felt the sealing array he had placed on the treasure chest vanish instantly, unable to help but smile wryly. A sense of powerlessness welled up inside him.
However, he didn't think it was Chen Fan who did it, but rather the mysterious entity in Chen Fan's house.
“So, can you repair such a great gift?”
Master Gu muttered, his eyes filled with anticipation.
…
“Huh?”
After opening the treasure chest, Chen Fan's expression turned into one of surprise.
“A puppet?”
A metal figurine lay inside the treasure chest.
Chen Fan picked it up, discovering its unusual weight.
It was entirely crafted from metal.
It resembled a female warrior clad in golden armor, incredibly delicate and lifelike, with an aura of spiritual energy flowing between her brows.
“Ding, congratulations, Host, you have obtained an Extraordinary-Tier Slaughter Puppet!”
“Slaughter Puppet, originating from the Puppet Heaven, crafted from Heavenly Gold Iron, imbued with Life Metal. Once activated, it can autonomously absorb Heaven and Earth energy, evolve and grow.”
“But its formations are severely damaged…”
The system's notification sounded.
“Extraordinary Slaughter Puppet?”
“Does it possess extraordinary combat strength?”
Chen Fan's eyes shone with a fervent light.
“This puppet, when fully repaired, will possess the combat power of at least a peak Extraordinary.”
“It can also evolve on its own.”
“Once it evolves into the Divine Realm, it will awaken self-awareness.”
“If the Host chooses to upgrade it, upon completion, it will be eligible to advance towards a true living entity.”
“This is a super treasure.”
The system notified him.
“So, Master Gu couldn't repair it, so he gave this gift to me. He’s trying to please me while testing my supposed ‘senior’ abilities?”
“But this is truly a super gift!!”
Chen Fan laughed happily.
Then, he discovered a set of instructions lying in the chest.
Reading it, he realized this puppet could be used.
However, it required pre-charging each time, could only exert approximately Extraordinary combat strength, and could only maintain for ten minutes.
“System, repair!”
Chen Fan issued the command to the system.
“Ding, full repair, requires 30,000 points…”
The system notification came.
“30,000 points for a peak Extraordinary combat strength, repair!”
Chen Fan gritted his teeth and chose to repair it.
This was a great bargain.
“Boom!”
As soon as the words left his mouth, white light erupted from Chen Fan's palm again, enveloping the entire puppet.
The white light permeated the puppet.
As time passed, the puppet emitted a powerful killing intent, with golden light flowing over it.
“It's truly an Extraordinary puppet…”
“Peak Extraordinary strength! It's a weapon of mass destruction within families and factions!”
Chen Fan muttered. With this Slaughter Puppet, he would have two Extraordinary-level combat powers.
It would be equivalent to some ordinary factions and families.
Ordinary families might not even have a peak Extraordinary at their disposal.
