The next morning, at eight o'clock.
The door of the cabin was suddenly pushed open by a pair of large hands, and Fang Mo walked out slowly.
At this moment, his face was beaming with a joyful smile. He looked more refreshed and invigorated than ever before, and even his usual mischievous demeanor had changed, giving him an added touch of flamboyance.
Last night's experience...
It's actually not very convenient to elaborate here.
After all, the site's review is watching this place around the clock.
(TL: Haha)
But if I must say... Fang Mo is no longer a "block BOY," but has evolved into a "block MAN," experiencing a profound transformation in mind and body.
Fang Mo's little partner is also a conceptual life entity, just like him.
In this regard, Fang Mo felt that his various flamboyant maneuvers were almost uncontrollable.
If it weren't for Xiao Yao's complete lack of practical experience, still needing some time to adapt and accept these things, Fang Mo might have directly turned into a perverse content creator, showcasing his extravagant skills.
Even though his little partner was somewhat clumsy.
Fang Mo was still very satisfied.
When the distance between the two was no longer limited to zero distance embraces but became negative distance, his possessiveness as a man was greatly satisfied.
That night, what Fang Mo suppressed beneath him was not Xiao Yao.
It was the self he had been seeking all his life.
After their relationship took another step forward, Fang Mo's mood was exceptionally comfortable, and he even felt boundless energy for work.
Humming a little tune, Fang Mo walked slowly to the central area in front of the Tinker's Forge.
Pleasure aside, he still had to attend to serious matters, so Fang Mo quickly summoned his stand Steve, then controlled him to start working on the Tinker's Forge.
Earlier, when fighting Saitama in the One Punch Man world.
Fang Mo had a sudden idea.
He attached Shoggoth to the Nihilite Greatsword.
The result was unexpectedly powerful, even surpassing the Light Sword Clausolas, which sealed Ego. One strike was like cleaving a melon, directly splitting Mars in half...
But thinking about it, it made sense.
After all, Shoggoth was no longer the same sticky entity.
Back in the Marvel universe, Fang Mo had given Shoggoth the Abyss Dimension, which was formed by merging the Dark Hyperspace Dimension and Dormammu's Dark Dimension.
So theoretically, the Abyss Shoggoth was at least twice as strong as Dormammu.
Plus, Fang Mo himself held several dimensions.
This was like a dimensional demon god holding another dimensional demon god to fight others... how could it not be powerful?
"It seems it's time to upgrade my weapons."
With this thought, some ideas vaguely emerged in Fang Mo's mind.
Quickly, Steve seemed to sense something and flew to the warehouse area, fetching a large pile of ores, metal ingots, and crystal gems from various chests.
Although Xiao Yao had previously said that they had run out of minerals at home.
The minerals she mentioned referred only to industrial metals like copper, iron, tin, lead, nickel, platinum, and uranium.
Things like various alloys, magentium, mother earth, and tectonic alloys in the Tinker's Construct were entirely unusable for her since they couldn't be used to make machines.
In short, after taking some ores.
Steve quickly returned to the central area in front of the Tinker's Smeltery, took out the Tinker's Manual, and quietly began to read.
While reading the Tinker's Manual.
Fang Mo also multitasked by organizing his backpack and checking his current weapons... or rather, his tool list.
Currently, in Fang Mo's storage space, besides the unmodifiable weapons like the Longbow of the Heavens and the Planet Eater Shovel, the rest were the Light Sword Clausolas, Fire Sword Laevatein, Ice Sword Rahab, Cosmic Neutron Greatsword (?), Time Sword, Storm Axe, Phoenix Mountain Blade (?), Eclipsing Death Sword (?), Medic Savior Sword (?), Manyullyn Cleaver, Nine-tailed Chakra Sword, Nihilite Soul Devouring Sword.
(TL: I don't know what I named them, to be honest…)
Of course, there were also some miscellaneous items.
For example, meteorite swords of various materials, hot spring swords, nuclear explosion darts, quantum swords, Pochi dog swords, spiritual pressure battery swords sealing Aizen, and so on.
There weren't too many of these things.
But if you say there were few, that's not quite true either.
Fang Mo roughly counted, and there were actually as many as twenty or thirty weapons.
"Damn... so many?"
After inspecting, Fang Mo was surprised to see how much stuff he had unwittingly accumulated, but the problem now was that many of these weapons were practically useless, just taking up space in his backpack.
Take the Ice Sword Rahab, for instance.
Originally, it was prepared for Ah Xue, but Fang Mo couldn't keep her in the sword forever. Although Ah Xue found staying inside the sword quite comfortable, she had many household chores to manage daily as a maid, making it impractical for her to stay in the sword.
Moreover, the Ice Sword's power was quite inferior compared to the Fire Sword Laevatein.
The Fire Demon Sword, with the Fire Giant Surtr sealed inside, could theoretically bring about the apocalypse with a single thrust into the ground. Its power far exceeded the Bankai of Captain Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni from "Bleach," essentially a supreme flaming artifact.
But the Ice Sword?
It was said to gradually freeze an entire planet, but only with the power of the Arcane Ring.
"Emmm…"
Fang Mo pondered for a moment and decided, "It's time to clean out my backpack."
And he acted immediately.
With a thought, he dumped all his weapons and tools onto the ground like spilling beans.
Then, Fang Mo began to sort through them, discarding anything useless. Ice Sword, Nihilite Sword, Imperial Gold Sword, Blunt Gold Sword – he threw a whole bunch into the void beside him in an instant.
The Ice Sword was purely useless.
As for the Nihilite Soul Devouring Sword, Fang Mo didn't intend to completely discard it.
This weapon was forged long ago, probably before Fang Mo visited the X-Men world. The craftsmanship then was much more flawed compared to now.
Once Fang Mo materializes a Tinker' Construct weapon, it cannot be reforged.
To perfect this weapon, a new one would have to be made.
Fortunately, Fang Mo had amassed enough materials, including several sets of the rarest alloy, Nihilite.
So soon enough, after discarding the old weapons, Fang Mo began designing a new Nihilite Greatsword.
Considering he had unlocked almost all known Tinker' Construct modules, he shouldn't need to change weapons much in the future. Fang Mo took out his long-stored material – flesh.
He had accumulated a lot of this odd material, and frankly, he didn't want to keep hoarding it.
Using it to make weapons seemed sufficient.
Regarding this peculiar material, it had been mentioned before.
If memory serves, the flesh material from the Tinker' Construct's auxiliary module was a semi-finished test item, not obtainable in survival mode by players.
Its property was simple: gluttony.
In the game, flesh's attribute was to cause hunger on hit and restore hunger upon killing a target, but with no drop items.
However, this description…
Fang Mo could only chuckle at it.
He knew that materializing this item would result in some unreasonable characteristics, likely involving the devouring of flesh.
With this in mind, Fang Mo controlled Steve to approach the tool forging table.
After a moment of contemplation, he forged a sword blade out of flesh. On the other side, the blade was made of Nihilite.
Flesh devoured the body, while Nihilite devoured the soul.
Frankly, Fang Mo couldn't imagine how powerful this sword would be if truly created.
For the core of the broadsword, Fang Mo chose the versatile Ender Core as usual.
For the sturdy handle, he used his most precious material – the Crystal Matrix Ingot, known for its absurd enhancement of dimensional energy, containing the essence of Nether Stars.
As for the engraving part, Fang Mo hadn't found a satisfactory material yet.
For now, he opted for Imperial Gold, the metal that could diminish intelligence.
He wasn't in a hurry to finalize the engraving since Tinker' Construct weapons could be enhanced on the forging table even after materialization, although parts couldn't be replaced.
Soon enough, with the successful combination of various materials…
Fang Mo controlled Steve to take out the brand-new giant sword and began to apply various enhancements on it: Quick Attack, Fortune, Sharpness, Diamond, Emerald, Durability, Beheading, Knockback, Life Steal, Soul Bind, Glowing, Floating, Web Weaving, Bind... even combined with other mods like Magic and Tinker's Construct, adding extra benefits from eight types of terrain gems to the weapon.
When the new giant sword was finally forged, Fang Mo did not immediately bring it into reality. Instead, he controlled Steve to pick up the sword and walk to a nearby dark ritual altar, where he had prepared a large pile of enchantment books and began the vanilla enchantments.
Due to accidentally losing the Planet Eater Shovel last time, the first enchantment Fang Mo applied was Loyalty. After that, he added numerous other enchantments such as Sweeping Edge, Capacity, Power, Light Piercing, Coral, Fear, Soul Bind... and so on.
It is worth mentioning that although Power is an enchantment for bows in Minecraft, once brought into reality, it gains its literal effect and is no longer limited to 'bow-drawing' power. Fang Mo had tested this long ago; if applied to a sword, it would enhance the wielder's physical strength. The same applies when it is enchanted on armor, increasing the wearer's physical strength.
A prime example of this is TankTop Master. With the Power Vest, this hero, who was almost at the bottom of the S-class, managed to single-handedly defeat the Reborn Phoenix Man, a top-tier Dragon-level monster. This shows how powerful the Power enchantment can be.
After spending half a day crafting, Fang Mo finally satisfied himself by creating this near-BUG-level giant sword. The ritual at the dark altar allowed Minecraft enchantments to far exceed their limits, reaching level X for Fortune, Durability, Sharpness, etc., combined with enhancements from another system, Tinker's Construct...
Honestly, even without bringing it into reality, this sword could easily defeat Minecraft monsters. But this was far from over, as Fang Mo's initial intention for making this sword was for Shoggoth.
"Alright, only the last step remains now," Fang Mo said, glancing at the giant sword in Steve's hand. With a thought, he disappeared and reappeared in the Shoggoth Abyss the next second.
"Chi?"
The sudden visit of its master clearly surprised Shoggoth in the abyss. With a slight cry, numerous Shoggoths poked their heads out from all around, looking at Fang Mo.
"Good children," Fang Mo smiled, raising a finger forward. A terrifying tremor came from the abyss, a rift opened, and a pitch-black tentacle emerged, lightly touching Fang Mo's fingertip.
It was as if this triggered some condition. Countless Shoggoths jumped towards Fang Mo, chirping, "Chi, chi chi chi?"
"Oh, I see," Fang Mo explained, "I made a new home for you. Move your main body inside."
Saying this, Fang Mo reached out to Steve, who handed over the giant sword. The next second, the sword materialized in Fang Mo's hand, turning into a terrifying red and purple giant sword.
Yes, Fang Mo's real intention was to seal Shoggoth into this sword. Although it seems unkind to seal a pet into a weapon, this was not the case. With Fang Mo's help, Shoggoth had already integrated with the Abyss dimension. Theoretically, dimension gods are like this; the dimension is both their power source and their essence. By sealing Shoggoth, Fang Mo was essentially putting the entire dimension into the sword.
Considering Shoggoth's infinite splitting ability, Fang Mo could easily pull out a small part of Shoggoth to keep as a pet in his villa. Even if Fang Mo didn't do this, Shoggoth would usually stay in its Abyss dimension. So, sealing it or not didn't matter much.
"Chi, chi chi," Shoggoth evidently agreed without hesitation after Fang Mo explained the situation.
"Haha, I finally created something that shouldn't exist..." Fang Mo laughed, then thrust the giant sword downward: "Come forth! Dark Sword 22!"
Instantly, the entire abyss seemed to boil over.
