The Holy Chronicles of Baator

Chapter 614: Before the Act (2)



The Manderhawke Plate floated from Leylin's palms, strange runes filling it as it opened a black tunnel.

In the World of Gods, Leylin's Demigod Clone opened its eyes, and a golden light flashed through them. Black animal skin appeared, carrying intricate runes and radiating an ancient yet mysterious aura.

This was something Leylin acquired in the western desert. Back then, he'd only thought of the seal as rather unique and guessed that it had contained much information.

*Beep!*

Two rays of golden lightning struck the animal skin from Leylin's eyes, the patch of skin immediately floating into the sky as a lot of information was transmitted.

"A.I. Chip, begin to synchronize the transmission!"

Demigod Leylin ordered before closing his eyes again…

At this moment, Leylin completed his transmission from the Magus World, using the tunnel created by the Manderhawke Plate to send information to the auxiliary A.I. Chip.

[Beep! Receipt sent from the auxiliary chip, transmission 100% completed. Decompression ongoing…]

The A.I. Chip projected a lot of information to Leylin in the Magus World on a large flickering screen.

A trove of data was sealed within that obscure piece of animal skin, containing the accumulation of information from an ancient civilization. The Demigod had done most of the decrypting, so Leylin only had to peruse the information sent over to the A.I. Chip.

"The Theory of Overgod Weapons…"

"Origin Force sensing and construction…"

"The foundation of Overgod Weapons— 4D planes…"

"Divine Magic of the World of Gods..."

"Analysis of the Weave..."

The folder was extremely large, containing a sea of information. Most of it pertained to the construction of Overgod Weapons.

"They were a short-lived civilization that appeared after the dusk of the Gods in the period known as the dark ages. Inspired by Arcanist Theory, the civilization specialized in weaponsmithing. This Overgod Weapon is their ultimate design, but even the might of their entire civilization couldn't help them finish it…"

Leylin's eyes blazed as he looked at the information.

This was an Overgod weapon, a concept from the World of Gods, a pinnacle of the weaponsmithing and Divine Weapons of the entire world. This was something that Leylin wanted to obtain at any cost.

The engineers of that civilization had wished to construct a weapon stronger than the concept of the Divinity, an overwhelming tool that could slay even Gods and was essentially the best Godslayer Weapon possible.

Leylin knew that the Overgod Weapon had a different name...

An Origin Force Weapon, a tool that was fuelled by the World Origin Force designed to harm beings of Laws. Such a thing would be a priceless artifact even in far more advanced Worlds than the Magus World or the World of Gods.

Now that Leylin himself was a Rank 7 Warlock, he realized the difference between this Realm and the rest of the Ranks that he was in.

After becoming the Being of Law, or in his case, attaining the Law Godhood, the Beings of Law stopped using the Spells and Magic itself. Instead, they started using their very own Laws combined with the World Origin Force.

Few innate bloodlines could be activated in this realm.

Because of this, Leylin had to devise new measures for battle. A weapon made of Origin Force would definitely increase his power tremendously. Not to mention that he was creating a Magic that was specifically to be used by the Beings of Law.

'During the process of constructing a Divine Weapon, the Gods will often put in their own flesh, blood and soul into it. That is why a divine weapon achieves such godly powers. Origin Force weapons work on the foundation of Origin Force, bringing greater difficulty into their construction. Of course, the weapons might increase as well…'

Leylin was assimilating all of the information that he got from his Clone Body.

The Clone Body of Leylin's within the World of Gods was tasked with collecting as much knowledge from all corners of the World of Gods as possible. Now that it was all transmitted to the True Body, it took some time to digest it entirely.

To Leylin, the construction of a weapon using Origin Force was not a problem because he could construct an even better version of the Origin Force Weapon due to his crystallized knowledge of several civilizations.

His authority in Dreamscape would allow him to do so. After all, he wouldn't dare absorb too much of Dreamscape's Origin Force himself, so it was viable for him to use it on his weapon.

With Origin Force as a foundation, an Overgod Weapon was not something as simple as purely wielding Origin Force to attack.

It was two different concepts.

Deep down in Leylin's heart, he devised an even grander plan.

He wanted to inscribe the Laws that were useless to him onto the Origin Force weapon and create an even more terrifying tool of destruction and supportive powers. It would be acting as a catalyst for his power, amplifying them to an even greater degree. 

With the Law Godhood of Devouring, he would definitely consume even greater existences in the future in order to pry apart the Laws that they had comprehended. As for the Laws that were not useful for his Path, Leylin would then transfer them to this weapon and increase its power.

With this, he would obtain not only an immensely powerful weapon but also an exceptionally powerful Mystic Code that would be most suitable for casting his Magic Spells or acting as an amplifier for his other abilities.

With that many Laws infused in it, Leylin could only guess what a monstrosity it would become in the future. And aside from the Laws themselves, Leylin also planned to incorporate the concept of the Godhood into the weapon to increase its power and potency.

One day, the name of this weapon would reverberate around the entire cosmos, making the many existences of Law shudder in fear and despair. However, he would also need a lot of precious materials that would act as the base for the weapon. 

It would need to be made from the best materials as possible to withstand the overwhelming power that he planned to inscribe into the weapon. He would need to obtain them at first; that would be rather an arduous thing to do, but Leylin had time for that.
