Stilling his growing anticipation, he manifested a random sword that would be a treasure in a Minor World, taken from the Spatial Ring of the Governor of the city of Jarkarr.
Rowan threw it into the swirling wind and it was grounded to micro components that floated into the portal above.
He immediately received information on all the components that made up this sword, from the metals and all the alloys used to the runes and coating applied to the weapon.
This was the basic application of the two abilities of the Hollow Forge, Disintegrate and Replicate.
If he wanted he could perfectly reproduce the weapon again, but doing this was the least useful method to use Hollow Forge.
It was with the creation of the last Chamber that he truly understood the true use of all his Chambers, as they were all part of a single whole. Each of them would only work to their full potential if the three were used together.
Rowan connected Knowledge Well with the Hollow Forge and an incredible change happened to the image of the Great Sword he had inside his head.
Previously the Hollow Forge could only perfectly reproduce the sword that had been collected, but now with the vast library of weapons that Rowan had come across, his options were no longer singular.
Knowledge Well had scanned all of the weapons, armor, vehicles, and other miscellaneous items he had come across all through his adventures in the Nexus and on Jarkarr and had documented them all, down to their molecular arrangements.
It was the reason why so many of his Consciousness pillars were assigned to it, as with every moment, it was constantly updating its It was the reason why so many of his Consciousness pillars were assigned to it, as with every moment, it was constantly updating its library, but that was only a small part of what the Knowledge Well was also doing.
All of these details were now available to Hollow Forge. An image of a floating Great-sword appeared inside his head and then many branching paths were shown leading away from it.
He instantly manifested three long swords, each of them was far better than the great sword in terms of sharpness and hardness, and the materials used in their creation all came from the single greatsword.
The three long swords turned into thirty shurikens, then transformed into two bows with eight shiny arrows, with a flourish a great cannon wielded by the Boreas family guardsman appeared.
It was exact to the last metallic detail, but it would not be able to fire a single shot because other necessary components to make that possible were not available in the material of the Great Sword.
This was where Astrolabe came in, white light began to flash inside the Hollow Forge bringing a wealth of metals, Aether Stones, and other resources and they were all disintegrated and stored into the portal above.
Hollow Forge could also serve as his storage, and Rowan pushed every single material that was not nailed down into Hollow Forge, it could store them all and perfectly duplicate them or change them into something useful.
With Hollow Forge, Rowan’s wastes turned to zero, and he would be able to wage wars on all corners of the universe without worrying about the logistics. Nothing he ever owned was ever going to waste again.
With this influx of this new material, the Hollow Forge rippled, and soon a perfectly working lightning cannon was created, with a sizzling sound, a thousand cannon was produced with little fanfare.
Each of them was not just an exact copy of the cannons Rowan had seen on Jarkarr, there were clear improvements in their damage, range, and firing rate, for the Knowledge Well was also improving the designs of everything he came in contact with.
Pulling data from various sources all in service of improving every aspect of Rowan’s life.
One of the improvements to this cannon was that it was now linked to the Endless sea of Aether inside his Mental Space, effectively granting this cannon the effects of unlimited bullets.
He began to fire a thousand cannons simultaneously and thousands of feet ahead the air shattered into pieces as countless explosions of lightning and fire bloomed.
If a thousand mortal men were armed with these cannons, they would tear an army of Dominators at the First Circle apart.
Rowan felt a slight dip in the Endless Sea beneath him, but it was meaningless to the overall size of the sea and it soon was replenished.
He soon experimented with producing armor, vehicles, houses, and roads, until he was satisfied with the creation ability of Hollow Forge.
This was an amazing way to gear an army and there were so many ways to utilize Hollow Forge that would be game-changing, but for now, the thing he was interested in the most was the level of weapons it was able to replicate.
Rowan hesitated for a moment before manifesting the weapon he collected from Dorian, bringing it before him. The long blade which he had called Lady.
No matter if he was able to produce a billion cannons or a trillion swords, against the sort of enemies he faced, those could as well be toothpicks. What could change the direction of the battle was weapons such as these.
God Killers.
These sorts of weapons were very rare, and he hoped that the Hollow Forge would be able to perform wonders and he could produce these weapons en masse.
The possibility of having his legions of Angels each armed with weapons like Lady and Envy was so attractive a prospect that he was nearly salivating. Yet he still tempered his expectations as weapons like these were alive. These were weapons worthy to be wielded by gods, Archmages, and Demon Princes.
Not alive in the way most mortals understood life, but they had a vitality of their own that was undeniable. He did not know if such sentience could be duplicated.
Lady was a powerful weapon, but unlike Envy which could grow increasingly powerful the more enemies he killed with it and could drain their emotions from them as its meal, he had hardly begun to scratch the surface of what this weapon was capable of.
Rowan had unearthed most of the mysteries of this blade, and although its Soul-killing properties were powerful, he could endure the loss of this weapon if the refinement failed to duplicate its properties.
