Darius Supreme

Chapter 467 - 467



Whatever the case, it was something that permeated the entire body from top to bottom and facilitated the unique abilities of the Awakened ones in Faust. 

Darius was largely aware that such things also existed on Earth, but Miranda's analysis of the human body of his home planet in conjunction with all the knowledge he had of Faust was the following: 

Basically, at one point, humans on Earth must have had witches, wizards, cultivators, ninja, and all those romanticized things, but something had occurred to cripple their descendants' meridian networks. 

Miranda was of the opinion that this must have happened abruptly, leading to large consequences. Darius doubted this, his assumption was it must have occurred over time, slowly stripping humans of these unique persons such that each new generation had fewer and fewer until they became myth, but we still collectively "knew" they existed. 

Miranda would need about a week to process all the metals to manufacture a new and unique class of worker robots she had designed while expanding on Pokterr, the Builderbot. 

After all, the Critterbots and Guard Androids were designs of Gravitas, and while useful, they were not as good as the kind of ideas for robots that Earthlings had. 

Critterbots were too small even if they were handy and used large numbers to make up for their size thanks to their ease of production. Guard Androids were human-shaped, fine, but they were not meant for tasks like these as the name said. 

They were made to fight, so while they could assist in building and be as proficient at it as a normal human/humanoid with infinite stamina, they couldn't reach the level of even mere Critterbots who could manifest various tools from their bodies to assist the work. 

The Builderbots would be the perfect middle ground. They were half the size of a human and shaped like a halfling. They had human hands, allowing them to do fine work that only humans could do while being able to manifest various tools from their bodies that were of an even wider variety than the Critterbots. 

They were fast, tireless, strong, and could even fight or defend themselves much better than Guard Androids. After all, their composite strength due to the ratio of metals used meant that they would be harder, more durable as well as thinner, and lighter than any other robot model on Faust. 

So even though they were small, a punch from them would hurt 1.5x times more than a typical Guard Android. Due to their size, they would also be faster and more nimble, making them harder to hit. 

Of course, that was only compared to Guard Android not made with the same ratio of metals. If Miranda were to bother to make such things, they would be 3x stronger than the Builderbots, but that wasn't the goal right now. 

She could work on those after they began extracting from the mine, granting them a limitless supply of metal. Right now, the AI didn't even have a full factory, and so could only manually build each bit one by one, instead of throwing them on an assembly line and letting pre-programmed assembly machines do the work. 

During this time, Gunner and Xela were relaxed, but tense. The warning they were receiving was still present, and it was intensifying gradually with each hour. 

Not to warn them of danger approaching them, but that it was a bad idea to return to Pokterr. Darius was curious about the state of the continent, but he didn't have the satellites up yet so there was no way to directly communicate with Miranda's subroutine still there. 

As much as he was curious, he was more worried. 

As such, while Miranda was working, he recorded a message and made a Cross-Continental Temporary Spatial Array that was locked to the house in which he worked in while he was on Pokterr, which was Miranda's headquarters on the continent. 

He made sure to encrypt it, so forget Grandmasters or True Lords, even the tech-savvy fellows from Gravitas would only waste their time trying to crack it. 

His message was simple, he warned Miranda's subroutine of the potential danger and informed her to backup all her bases by building an underground cache where she was to store all core assets of them and leave semi-empty shells with cannon fodder above. 

As for the main bases, it was impossible to do so once it was right above the main entrance to the underground world, but she was to relocate most of the core assets there to other places in the interim, likely one of the nearest Polito Vaults. 

Darius was not sure what the state of Pokterr was right now, but he was sure that whatever it was that threatened their safety so strongly had yet to descend, as the Spiritual Sense warning hadn't yet reached climax. 

As such, he hoped that there would be enough time for Miranda to make a difference. Also, he planned to step up the release of the satellites so that he could achieve worldwide coverage and be connected to all places in Faust at all times. 

Well, there was little he could do now, so he resumed his work in the pathway of the new element. A week of time would grant him approximately 15% of progress minus the time he slept and did other misc things, so he got down to it. 

... 

In Elysium's City of Light, five entities were gathered in a large cathedral hall. They were currently kneeling before a frozen statue of Zeus that was locked in the majestic pose of throwing a thunderbolt towards the sky. 

The leftmost entity was a man with a slim body and light brown skin. His face possessed a fully-trimmed beard that ran from his chin to his sideburns, then circled around his mouth to form a suave mustache. 

He had short dark hair that was kept neat as well as sharp golden eyes that were full of wisdom. He wore the traditional white toga with golden accents, something that denoted a high position here. 

Besides the brown gladiator sandals at his feet rested a long golden spear that was double-edged.

To his right was a woman with burning gray hair that was flowing freely behind her. She had deep gray eyes and a lovely visage similar to a girl next door, with a small nose, cute lips, and a round face. 

She wore a white stola that was similar to the toga Achilles wore with golden accents. She was slightly shorter than the 6"1 tall Achilles, standing at 5"11 and her mature body was quite well endowed, but not enough to make her dress cling tightly.

Beside Medea was another female, more elfin in nature. She was shorter than the others at 5"7 and had flaming red hair that also flowed behind her freely. She had a cute face and large eyes, as well as a light smile on her face despite the solemnity of the situation. 

She also wore a white stola, but hers was a bit grayer as it was made with special materials to resist the heat coming off her hair at all times.

To the right of Pyrrha was another person, this time a male who was as tall as Medea. He had soft, androgynous features as well as a body covered with blue scales in certain areas. His hair also flowed behind him and was a lovely ocean blue color, looking like the waves at sea. 

He wore the same white toga and sandals as Achilles, and his bright golden eyes showed a deep intellect and calmness.

The final person was the most distinct and noticeable, due to his sheer size alone. Standing at 6"8 and with a hulking body that was extremely buff, he looked no different from a Half-Giant, despite not being one. 

He had bronze skin, sharp golden eyes, and a messy spread of brown hair which was unkempt. He had a light beard and mustache which were kept wild and his mouth was locked into a ferocious grin at all times. 

He too wore a white toga that easily displayed his muscles.
