But right now, what Bai Yi lacks the least are witches. In fact, most of the witches within the territory are currently unemployed, left with nothing but to ponder over magic learning and spell-casting.
Such a labor-intensive task couldn’t be more suitable.
As for how these souls can acquire the "tenacious soul" attribute, Bai Yi already has preparations.
It also involves extracting from the abnormality, known as the "Spirit infection" attribute.
Originally, Bai Yi intended to use this on the Undead Clan, as a substitute for the spore infection attribute to spread between Soul Fires, syncing attributes with new Undead.
Now applied to soul weaponry manufacturing, it’s entirely suitable since both target soul abilities.
All that’s needed is to specially construct a unique building, to apply the corresponding attributes to the input souls, achieving an assembly line-style production of soul weaponry.
Even the cultivation of standard blank souls used for soul weaponry can be integrated into this building by Bai Yi.
Witches just need to place the collected souls inside, producing standard blank souls sufficient to exist in reality, enabling the witches to start crafting directly.
"I didn’t expect, the abnormality truly is full of treasures!
At least in theory, this plan has no obvious flaws; the next step is to see the actual attempt...
As for this building, it’s best to cultivate it as a Fungus Carpet Building as usual.
Given the current plasticity of the Fungus Blanket, constructing a new building is no problem, and most importantly, Fungus Carpet Buildings can be dismantled and rebuilt at any time, making them more flexible.
Even on the battlefield it can be constructed to collect souls, and even if it is accidentally damaged, it won’t be regrettable.
Hmm, right, also need to consider the ability to collect souls.
Although I can collect souls with superpower, gathering souls of the deceased before they dissipate isn’t a problem.
However, ordinary witches can’t do that, and I certainly can’t oversee soul harvest on the battlefield personally. Otherwise, it’s better just to use the ’Creation’ ability, using inanimate objects as a base to awaken souls in volume.
This way is less troublesome, but would only consume a bit more magic power..."
It’s not that Bai Yi cherishes life, although she increasingly loves life now, there’s still a distinction between life and life.
She loves her own life and the lives of her created children, but not those of others!
If she could truly sacrifice others to achieve herself, she wouldn’t hesitate.
While loving life, it also means she is indifferent to the lives of strangers.
Simply put, one reason is that harvesting souls requires finding new conquest targets, the other is needing to attend the battlefield in person.
The former is manageable, although it causes her some trouble, it’s not unsolvable; just send an Avatar into a new instance with a team solves it.
The lives of an entire world are enough to produce the souls she needs.
But the problem lies with the latter; her own collection is limited.
Even after her promotion allows her to harvest souls on a large scale, facing enormous battlefields, particularly those multi-front large-scale battles commonly faced by her subordinate tribes, makes it insufficient.
If only one battlefield is expanded at a time, it seems like a waste of combat power, and efficiency is very low.
It might even be better to go full throttle, using magic power to mass-produce souls. This method can also go directly into assembly line production.
However, Bai Yi has already thought of a solution.
This derives from the Avatar studying under the lamp within the territory.
Recently, to quickly resume transforming the Undead upon returning to the territory, she has stopped learning ordinary magic, shifting to the vast ocean of Undead Spell.
This also led her to notice that Undead Spell contains a way to collect the undead.
Although it’s just one magic, clearly, it can also be crafted into a portable Array.
If necessary, the Fungus Blanket can also lay a large-scale Array underground before the battle, to collect undead in mass.
With this approach, there’s even an additional benefit; the Fungus Blanket can directly collect and process the undead into blank souls for witch use.
"If this is the case, then it should be foolproof.
Next step is to study Telekinesis carving techniques, try converting soul extraction into an Array, and craft the building.
Hmm, not right.
First need to experiment with verifying soul weaponry, I’ll carve one myself first...
Leave this to myself, research and construction can be delegated to the Avatar.
Alas, originally planned on visiting that Starry Sky soon, now plans are temporarily postponed."
With internal arrangements settled, the Avatar in the Weird World continues prior attribute enhancements, with the main focus shifted from "Mental Harbor" to "tenacious soul."
Soul extraction Array is assigned to the Avatar studying Undead Spell, using a soul slice from her senior year of high school to make this is rightly suitable.
Since soul carving research is about innovating a method, what’s needed is more experimentation.
The idle Avatar within the territory will attempt it first, and she herself will join after experimenting with soul weaponry.
