Extreme Cold Era: Shelter Don't Keep Waste-Chapter 638 - 602: God Corpse Transformation
Ultimately, Perfikot did not destroy the Eye of Omniscience, nor did she extract the last trace of divinity from the God of Wisdom.
It wasn't that she had softened, but the God of Wisdom expressed that he could provide Perfikot with intelligence on the Divine; he still held value for Perfikot.
Moreover, after all, it's still the previous generation's God of Wisdom. Although there's only a bit of divinity left, the knowledge and experience are still there, able to serve as Perfikot's "portable grandpa."
Even though Perfikot wanted to retort that now she's almost a hero facing the Demon King, only receiving a "grandpa" so late — even trashy novels wouldn't set up such a plot.
But in any case, the previous generation's God of Wisdom could still be of much use.
At least in dealing with the two divine corpses Perfikot brought back, he offered Perfikot a very suitable solution, which was to transform these two divine corpses into new divine artifacts.
As the God of Wisdom, he certainly understood how to create divine artifacts.
However, although Perfikot accepted this suggestion, she didn't plan to turn these two precious divine corpses into ordinary divine artifacts, as that would be too wasteful. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
Plus, it lacked creativity and wouldn't do justice to her craftsmanship.
Perfikot planned to transform these two divine corpses into third-generation godslaying armor and take this opportunity to turn to the seventh page of the Jade Record, gaining the power of omniscience.
Only in this way could she have the confidence to confront the Ancient Gods.
After all, through interrogation of the previous generation's God of Wisdom, Perfikot learned that the gods she had encountered, like the War God and the Goddess of Beauty, were referred to as the main gods, and in the mythological era, there were twelve main gods in total.
As for each of their subordinate gods, there were even more. The two before Perfikot who had fallen, as well as that war god's female champion, were merely low-ranking subordinate gods. Some powerful subordinate gods could even challenge the main gods.
With this information, Perfikot could finally believe Sanderion's assertion that the gods should be more concerned with the core region of the old world where the former Romulus Empire was located.
After all, Langton is the capital of the strongest human empire, the largest city in the world. If even this is not worth paying attention to, then the only thing that could possibly attract the Ancient Gods' attention and investment would be their former divine kingdoms.
"Actually, you don't have to worry too much about encountering overly powerful deities because the White Star has only just appeared, and the mystical resurgence of this world has only just begun — it can't yet withstand the descent of powerful deities." The God of Wisdom explained to Perfikot, providing a kind of consolation.
However, Perfikot sneered at this: "Even if they can't send down powerful subordinate gods now, they will send them in the future. And even if powerful subordinate gods are not available, won't weaker ones suffice?
For mortals, the difference between a weak and a strong subordinate god is just whether it's the left foot or right foot that an elephant uses to crush an ant.
If preparations aren't made early, when the time comes to truly face those Ancient Gods, we'd really just have to wait for death."
Facing such a rebuke from Perfikot, the God of Wisdom had no choice but to obediently remain silent, once again serving as the Eye of Omniscience's commentator.
——————————————
For a master of alchemy proficient in human transmutation, reattaching two severed heads was not a difficult task.
Originally, Perfikot was also considering whether to reattach the heads of these two subordinate gods so she could have two complete divine corpses.
But considering that even the God of Wisdom, after being killed and turned into a divine artifact, still had a chance of revival after several thousand years, Perfikot felt it wise not to court death in this way.
Thus, those two heads were directly forged into a pair of swords by her, becoming new equipment for Beifa.
Given that Perfikot had a set of divine artifact level steam armor from the War God, after much deliberation, she couldn't bring herself to destroy such a set of blessed steam armor. She planned to modify it for Beifa to wear, transforming Beifa into an Autonomous Knight.
And an Autonomous Knight capable of slaying gods at that.
This was actually an idea Perfikot had earlier; she planned to mass-produce and utilize a new core for the godslaying armor, miniaturizing it for installation in the Autonomous Knight to enhance their combat power, at least enough to battle those divine entities.
And Beifa, in a sense, is essentially a prototype for technical verification.
So enhancing Beifa's weaponry to give him stronger combat power is quite logical.
"Letting your puppet use divine artifacts? That's actually a pretty good idea, as it can enhance combat power while avoiding unnecessary casualties." The God of Wisdom highly praised Perfikot's plan: "Besides, it should be noted, humanity's extraordinary have withered significantly. In the mythological era, you humans could contended with the gods, and those famous human heroes even became new deities."
"Become a subordinate god? Do you guys lack people to command? Why does every main god I encounter seem to want to recruit me as a subordinate god?" Perfikot muttered while continuing to modify Beifa's body, complaining to the God of Wisdom.
In response to Perfikot's gripe, the God of Wisdom responded calmly: "For the gods who left this world thousands of years ago, they are greatly weakened. Even the power of the main gods has declined. As for the subordinate gods, it's even worse; some weaker gods may have completely perished.
In such times, when there appears someone with the courage to resist the gods, the wisdom and ability to contend against the gods, and also enough strong will and resolve to refuse the gods' recruitment, do you think the gods wouldn't vie for such a person?"
"A talent war? Alright, I get it." Perfikot had previously just been ignorant about the gods. Now, with the God of Wisdom, a former member of the Ancient Gods, explaining various information and secrets from the mythological era, she quickly improved her understanding of the gods.
However, what the gods think is of no concern to her; what matters is finding a way to kill the gods.
Currently, the godslaying armor is her greatest dependency and confidence.
Thus, in using those two divine corpses as raw materials to remodel and upgrade Beifa, Perfikot invested almost all her effort.
Finally, Perfikot successfully transformed Beifa into an Alchemy Puppet with subordinate god-level combat power, as determined by the God of Wisdom, and equipped him with a second set of steam armor.
The reason for having two sets is because Perfikot was not entirely at ease with the gift from the War God. Although it was bestowed steam armor that she planned for Beifa to wear, considering its design and potential hazards, it was essentially unlikely to be used.
For this very reason, Perfikot had to produce another set of steam armor for Beifa somehow, and divine corpses were the best materials, as originally planned.
