As for repaying debts? With a Floating City in his possession, who would dare to come asking for money.

It’s just that, although it is Magic Immunity, there is still a limit, if subjected to a large number of high-level magic attacks, it would overload.

This group of armor, akin to a Stone Ghost, stood erect in front of Qin Muye. Its Attributes seemed standard, but what truly elevated it to a high level must be the Magic Immunity Attribute.

Its two functions were designed to combat the hostile environments of the Wasteland City and Zombie Kingdom.

This was originally an energy supplement device made by Qin Muye, only combined with the decay of the Red Prison Element, resulting in a pseudo-energy gathering effect, which in essence was not energy gathering, but energy conversion.

With such a demise, it’s estimated that soon only about twenty Lords will be left—after all, it’s a fight to the death, not play-pretend, everyone is scrambling for a sliver of life.

After finding the reason, Qin Muye could relax a bit. As long as it was not caused by a malfunction, he wouldn’t have to fix it.

Therefore, he hurriedly controlled the entire Mysterious Lock to suppress the energy gathering reaction.

And indeed, Qin Muye seemed to be making a mountain of gold and silver with these things, but in reality, if no one was willing to lend him money, he could have been burdened with enormous debts.

Luckily, Qin Muye had a fallback, otherwise he’d also be caught up in the frantic struggle now.

Wouldn’t it be better to divide the territory and directly occupy the natives’ land? Not only are the population, commerce, agriculture, and so on well established, just sending a capable person to take over could yield gains.

Wanted to leap from the Middle Ages to the Interstellar Era overnight—even with the assistance of the unscientific system of magic, the necessary investments could certainly not be spared.

Now its main function is protection, other functions are not being considered.

He also understood why the blueprint for the Floating City was Rare Level and not Epic—firstly, because it was built as a subordinate territory, not loaded onto the main territory, and secondly, it would require development and a substantial investment of Resources, something useful for Qin Muye, but for someone else, it might be more trouble than it’s worth.

Currently, ninety percent of his Resources were invested in modernizing his territory, laying the groundwork for this plan that called the Floating City, but in reality, was more of an Interstellar Fortress.

Being the creator of the Red Prison Element himself, and with the Spirit Monsters and the entire territory having corresponding adaptation abilities due to the boost of the Lord Talent, he had absolutely no worries.

Although he had modified it, he did not alter its color.

Even if possible, he would have like to vitalize it by forming an artificial intelligence, but there simply wasn’t enough time.

It now looked like a Ruby, the normal Mysterious Lock wasn’t supposed to be this color.

Then the fourth level turned into Qin Muye’s military workshop.

Naturally, Qin Muye wouldn’t sell the complete Stone Ghost Armor; it was his ultimate weapon.

Qin Muye also added functions such as air filtration and environmental isolation to the armor, which were reflected in the Magic Shield, and for some reason, it turned out this way.

Qin Muye, sensing the converging Red Prison Elements, felt like he was at ease in Hell, effortlessly controlling all the Red Prison Elements within the Mysterious Lock with just a slight flick of his Magic Power and spiritual power.

To be able to build a Floating City, one must start at least from Level 6, unless, like Qin Muye, you monopolize a world plus arms dealing, other Lords couldn’t afford it. And at Level 6, with those Resources, it would be better to build Rare, Epic structures that could offer substantial help, rather than starting a subordinate territory from scratch.

Building that would be a massive project. However, without energy conversion, the current Energy was now redirected to the Magic Pool—fortunately, he had five Magic Pools, all at LV3, which could just about support this Mysterious Lock.

Magic Immunity is a bit like a double-edged sword, as neither debuffs nor buffs from magic can be applied. However, for Spirit Monsters, this is not much of an obstacle; general Troops rarely have corresponding magic, let alone even possess Magic Value.

The current Mysterious Lock is just a preliminary version, not the complete one. Otherwise, with the addition of a Super-Space Transmission Channel, it wouldn’t just be a Space Corridor, but also Space Exile, Space Strangulation, and other counterattacks.

There was no need for Qin Muye to intervene in the establishment of the Mysterious Lock. He was responsible for acceptance and inspection, and the rest of the work was delegated to the Spirit Monsters. If he had to do everything himself, his Spirit Monsters would be useless, and moreover, he was in charge of R&D, while the Spirit Monsters manufactured according to Qin Muye’s technology.

No wonder the Mages who researched the Floating City never thought of building this thing. The Silver Star Alliance was settled on the ground, only someone with grand ambitions like Qin Muye would have such an idea, and actually build it himself instead of relying on “Lord Era”.

Unfortunately, solely relying on five Magic Pools was not enough to sustain the complete version of the Mysterious Lock. Even this simplified version was researched and improved by Qin Muye; otherwise, it wouldn’t be easy to set up.

But the Spirit Monsters had an Intelligent Magic Net, and once equipped with Stone Ghost Level Armor, they could release it directly inside their bodies, not to mention this was just Armor and not an actual Stone Ghost.

Although Qin Muye had reverse-engineered the technology, to mass-produce it, the industrial level of the territory was still not quite sufficient… or to put it plainly, too poor to afford it.

After returning to the Mage Tower, he arrived on the 4th floor.

He would later integrate functions such as temperature regulation and resistance to extreme temperatures; after all, it was only the initial version—it would suffice for now.

The subsequent modifications to the Floating City should focus on energy sources, as how could it rise without sufficient energy?

Fortunately, the energy gathering reaction was not caused by a malfunction; instead, Qin Muye had underestimated the decay ability of the Red Prison Element. The moment the Mysterious Lock was activated, a powerful elemental vortex formed, continuously devouring all energy other than that of the Red Prison Element.

Others must have had similar concerns, which was probably why they hesitated to lend money to Qin Muye.

The division of labor had always been very clear.

Moreover, the Iron Blood Technology obtained by Qin Muye was still an incomplete version, making it even more challenging.

Then, after a check, he discovered that the concentration of the Red Prison Element in the air was continuously increasing.

If the enemy really broke through the Mysterious Lock and transported to his territory, they would trigger the Super Space-Time Transmission Channel, which would send them back to their original spatial coordinates.

But those who came to the territory to purchase military supplies and negotiate trade, who didn’t have such mechanisms—they were his cash cows bringing in money. Their deaths would be difficult to explain.

However, this had its drawbacks. To use the Super-Space Transmission Channel from now on, one would have to go to the Supplies Warehouse, because to implement the Space Corridor, the Super-Space Transmission Channel would have to be a part of the Mysterious Lock.

Even so, he felt that as long as his Interstellar Fortress was completed, he could take on Level 6 as a Level 4, but it would be the kind of fight where he would have to flee immediately afterward, for there was more than one Level 6.

Don’t be fooled by the ordinary attributes displayed in “Lord Era”; it was only because this was just the initial version. For example, the shoulder cannon, Miniature Computer, Wrist Blade, Mechanical Hawk, and various other Cold Weapons, firearms, and auxiliary equipment of the Iron Blood Warrior hadn’t been attached yet. Once they were, he guaranteed it would be stronger.

A Level 4 Mage Tower Territory not only expanded the range of his territory but also increased his Mage Tower from 3 to 4 floors, as if it had grown out of flat ground.

“Is the color of this Mysterious Lock Barrier a bit off?” Qin Muye looked at the Barrier enveloping his entire territory, similar to the novice Protection he had at first.

“With the Mysterious Lock, there’s no need to worry about someone carrying out a decapitation strike using spatial technology,” said Qin Muye. His Mysterious Lock was not just a simple lock; he had also constructed a Space Corridor through the Super-Space Transmission Channel.

“There’s no trust between people at all…” Qin Muye shook his head and went back to continue testing the Stone Ghost Armor.

“Energy gathering reaction? I don’t remember the Mysterious Lock having this feature,” Qin Muye looked over the design, and couldn’t find this function: “It couldn’t have been messed up by my modifications, could it? That shouldn’t be the case; the paper data and regional experiments were all normal.”

“Damn, I might be comfortable, but what about the others…” Qin Muye suddenly realized the implications of this issue.

“When the time comes, I’ll tweak this thing, just keeping the air filtering and environmental isolation and other such external features, then I can sell it to the True Dragon Emperor and the others.”

“The initial version of the Stone Ghost Armor is not bad; although its attributes are plain, it can fly, has Magic Immunity, and is unaffected by flash, blindness, and other effects.”
