Chapter 8 - Living metal!

In these 2 days kireans been thinking about how to accomplish his quest while the new 2,000 ultimas were already integrated in fact it didn't even take 2 days it took a couple minutes this is thanks to our unity and sense of kin, as these new ultimas integrated they started cultivating the ultimate universal art and picked they're profession now all off the 2,000 ultimas are planet professionals and planet lords and they are growing faster then the 500 at the beginning this is due to the better resources it won't take long for them to catch up.

During these two days of thinking kirean made up his mind to atleast get 100,000,000 population by the end of the protection anything more is wishful thinking as ultimas prefer 2 kids although they can breed to more than a hundred but 2 kids are already the limit an Ultima can handle without neglecting them 'and I won't stoop so low to have millions of my people neglected for a reward' thought kirean as he hoped to find ape like creatures or others that walk upright to assimilate
This may be cruel and disgusting to ultimas but kirean will do anything to secure his and his people's futures

As kirean was making up a plan in his mind a year quickly went by now if you look at the city of genesis which kirean named last year you can see it has expanded a lot of houses and shops as the population of the city has ballooned too 4,000 as the 1,000 Ultima females have given birth to they're first children, now the new 2,000 ultimas are all caught up as they are roughly the same cultivation

In kireans castle the same people are having a meeting at this time amber,Amanda,Adam,Christian and will as he looked at them he couldn't help but smile as they've grown so fast

Kirean look at Christian, Christian knowing what kirean wanted said "forefather we now have 4,000 ultimas all of them having different professions, the resources are in abundance as ultimas take resources out of gods domain we get 1% tax so our treasury is fuller then ever, blacksmiths have started crafting planet level weapons and armory as we only found one type of metal that can hold our planet energy but it's only limited to planet lord and can never go higher stages the metal is Mithril although mithril might be a wonderful metal to others to use it was almost useless as it's impossible to be able to hold planet levels of energy but a blacksmith fused mithril with energy crystals to see the result and to our suprise it gave it just enough of a boost to be able to be made into planet level weapons and armor and other trinkets, the average amount of planets of our population is 15 planets, the economy is booming the population is rising and inventions are made everyday!"

Kirean nodded and turned to will, will also started speaking "forefather the academy has been lively with the influx of 1,000 new kids a lot of friendships and bonds are made everyday it's truly brings me joy watching my kids make friends and our future generation growing up with a happy childhood" said will with a heartfelt smile as watching the kids grow was the only meaning to his life " thankfully some of the new ultimas decided to be teachers so we aren't understaffed" kirean was already happy hearing Christian now he was even happier and look gently at will this fellow that only wants to guide the future generations and make sure they grow up, nodding to will and looked at Amanda, Amanda seeing this smiles and starts to talk

"Forefather as Christian said we are getting a lot of resources from herbs to metals to exotic resources this has helped our professions as new inventions and more sufficient potions are being made, forefather me and other economic based ultimas discussed and figured this trend is unlikely to ever stop as every year new potions with greater affect will be born it's very likely we could be at 1,000 planets in 100 years or maybe less so as long as we keep expanding we find newer resources to create better and more potions that increases our planets this is a cycle that will probably never end so we named this cycle the infinity cycle"hearing this kirean was understandably shaken and so were everyone in the rooms as this infinity cycle is clearly amazing but then kirean starts thinking 'hmm so maybe in 1,000 years we can have millions of planets but that's too low maybe in 10,000 we won't even have a sun lord and we don't know what's out there, there could be millions of ships with star destroying cannons out there' thought kirean but this did not spoil his mood, given time the ultimas would take the universe this was a foregone conclusion.

Kirean looked at adam, the visibly shaken and stunned adam instantly returned calm and said "forefather we have not found any signs of assimilation targets, but while I haven't found anything I have been busy organizing some small tournaments with the reward of moon coins and planet coins this is to hone their fighting instincts as we already have amazing combat instincts we are still too inexperienced so we can make mistakes easily in battle"said Adam awakening others from their shock " haha good job Adam" kirean said with a smile feeling good about the changes with Adam

Finishing with Adam kirean looks at amber with expectations as he did not give her any task she and all other researchers research what they like and found interesting, amber saw this and smiled and said "forefather we found a kind of living medal a material of unknown origin and chemical or molecular structure that possesses the extraordinary ability to regenerate almost all damage instantaneously, "flowing" back together as if it were a liquid while closing holes, mending gashes and tears, or even reattaching severed pieces with little delay." Pauses amber to let everyone take in the shocking information before continuing "The material is also adaptive in some unknown fashion and can learn to repair itself given enough time from nearly any form of damage, even a blast powerful enough to reduce it to its constituent molecules or atoms." Amber takes a big breaths as this sentence alone stunned the entire hall and she finishes off by saying "the material is energy conductive and can hold energy we are currently experimenting on it, if we are lucky we can have ever changing weapons that repair instantly but we do not know the reaction it will have when it's fused with energy crystals and we are experimenting it with every profession, if we can do these we can build indestructible ships and weapons and way more things that we cant imagine right this moment as we only uncovered the surface of the material" all of this got kirean and the others beyond stunned and they stared blankly thinking of the implications of this living metal

30 mins passed and kireans eyes finally regain its luster as he looked at amber for 30 seconds with a big smile then said "amber you've done a greate service to the ultimas this time" said kirean as amber hearing this was so excited she was trembling and looked like she would jump out the castle any moment "it is my duty forefather" said amber after suppressing her excitement, kirean seeing this nodded "where was this metal found"

"It was found in a new planet that an Ultima formed what's fantastic about this metal is that we can put it in other gods domains and it will devour minerals to grow" said amber as her research team has developed a way to bring things in to gods domain a couple months back but it never was useful as gods domain for some reason would never accept living beings but now it can be of use if every Ultima has one planet for growing this living metal it would be fantastic thought amber, if amber was able to think this than the others and kirean could aswell so they were equally excited

"Continue researching we must find everything about this metal amber this is of great importance so drop any other research you and the researchers have" said kirean with a serious face, seeing they're forefather so serious the five suppressed they're excited as they all became serious as this was of outmost importance

"Yes forefather we will uncover all of its secrets"said amber with determination seeing this kirean nodded and told them to get back to they're business as he was left pondering something on his throne.
