Chapter 348: The Plan
Destiny's Dominion · 第三四八章 计划
Inside the second sealed box was an anti-materiel heavy sniper rifle equipped with various high-tech gadgets. It was disassembled into dozens of parts and placed in a huge gun case.
It was extremely heavy; the barrel alone was 4.5 meters long, with a caliber of 20 millimeters. It could well be called a sniper cannon, requiring astonishing strength to wield.
This was a holy artifact-level sniper rifle, crafted by Light Magic Industries over the past decade. Due to its exaggerated barrel and caliber, it possessed formidable armor-piercing capability and range, with power rivaling that of divine artifacts. The billionaire had named it 'Brayden's Battering Ram'.
It was originally a prototype anti-materiel magic rifle made by Light Magic Industries to bid for a Defense Department contract.
Though its power was immense, its drawbacks were obvious: an extremely slow rate of fire. It could only fire one full-power shot per minute, and reloading was troublesome.
However, like the 'Light Magic' No. 2 before, in the operation he was about to undertake, this anti-materiel sniper rifle's slow rate of fire was not a disadvantage. He expected to have only one chance to fire.
Besides that, in the lower left corner of the gun case lay several thick magic-patterned bullets.
In this world, thermal weapons with a caliber below 20 millimeters were called guns, while those above 20 millimeters were called cannons. So these bullets could indeed be termed 'shells'.
And the exquisite magic patterns, shining with brilliance, made it clear at a glance that they were top-tier masterpieces crafted by a grandmaster.
Inside the third sealed box were two crystals, one red and one blue, crystal clear. When the box was opened, waves of spiritual energy radiated out, shaking the soul—literally shaking it. Li Mochen felt his own spirit constantly struck by this force.
The fourth sealed box contained a huge power armor, four meters tall, shaped like a small mountain. However, this was not a product of Light Magic Industries but a military magic-powered armor, model 'Cyclops Titan'.
The fifth box held various supplies, including legendary magic scrolls of all kinds.
Li Mochen glanced at them and his eyes turned serious. That lady's execution ability was top-notch; she had indeed sent everything that needed to be sent.
"Is this? Godblood Stones, right?"
Hazel stared at the one red and one blue crystal in the third sealed box, her eyes startled and dazed. Especially the sky-blue crystal, which made her feel a power higher and stronger than her own calamity dragon force.
She also realized instantly that these were Godblood Stones, real Godblood Stones, condensed from the 'secret blood' of true gods.
"It's the blood of the Azure Dragon God Nate Alphad and the Greek fire god Phaethon."
Li Mochen was equally shocked. He had only tried his luck, but he never expected that Ms. Natalie Mays would find what he wanted, and within just seven hours.
The Azure Dragon God Nate Alphad was the father of the Silent Magic Dragon Patrick, who fell in the dragon civil war.
The fire god Phaethon was the son of the sun god Helios, grandson of Hyperion the Transcender, and a direct descendant of the Titans.
Although this god's divine rank and position were weak, and he was eventually struck down by Zeus with lightning, he was still a true god.
As for godblood, a single drop spilled by Hyperion in ancient times gave rise to the Hohenstaufen family.
Of course, the Azure Dragon God Nate Alphad and the fire god Phaethon could not compare to Hyperion, but this shows the power of godblood.
Li Mochen thought it better to seek secret blood from a higher level rather than from demigods with similar bloodlines.
In the many ancient divine wars, numerous gods from the dragon race and the Greek pantheon fell, leaving behind a large number of 'Godblood Stones' in the world.
Their preservation time was hundreds of times longer than demigod 'secret blood', and the power and 'mystery' within the Godblood Stones would not decline over time.
Due to the greatly declined magical attainments in the medieval period, the utilization rate of Godblood Stones by the era's strong was low. Even if they were fortunate enough to possess such treasures, it was difficult to completely eliminate the spiritual contamination in the godblood.
Although the rank difference between demigod secret blood and godblood was only one level, the power gap was hundreds or even thousands of times. It could not simply be described by multiples; they were entirely different levels, incomparable.
Yet even so, the blood of the Azure Dragon God Nate Alphad and the fire god Phaethon was still extremely precious, truly hard to come by even for a fortune, and money alone could not buy it.
Light Magic Industries and Anthony Brayden were regarded by many prestigious families in America as upstarts, much like the Rockefeller and Morgan families in their time—immense wealth but no deep roots.
But the power they had displayed this time secretly shocked Li Mochen.
However, he soon collected his thoughts and closed the third sealed box. He had asked Natalie Mays for these two Godblood Stones not for personal gain, but because they would indeed be useful this time. Using them to strengthen his physique and domain was only secondary.
After that, Li Mochen assembled the many parts of the anti-materiel heavy sniper rifle. About two minutes later, a sniper rifle measuring 5.2 meters in length, including the stock, appeared in his hands.
"Boss, are you sure you can do it? That's a quasi-demigod."
Lind Ames had used the power of the magic tower to open a sniper position for Li Mochen in the void not far away.
But his face was full of doubt.
Although Li Mochen wore the 'Light Magic' battle armor personally made by Anthony Brayden and held a sniper rifle capable of killing gods, if a quasi-demigod-level powerhouse were so easy to hit and so easy to deal with, the federal government and the many prestigious families of Atlanta would never allow those aberrants to be so reckless.
And his master was currently only a seventh-level magic professional, not even a shooter or hunter.
Besides, Li Mochen's attack plan was also too simple.
First, many legendary powerhouses from Light Magic Industries would launch an attack, temporarily luring the Nightlord of the Void and at least one of the three legends stationed inside the building away from the Arlington Building.
Then, using the 'divine' level magic scroll provided by Ms. Mays, which could ignore anti-magic fields, and Hazel, who was sufficiently disguised, they would forcibly break through the defensive array outside the Arlington Building.
The rescue mission would be carried out by Lind Ames and two other legendary powerhouses hired by Light Magic Industries. They would follow the passage opened by Hazel and directly enter the east side of the fourteenth floor of the building to rescue the person.
Lind Ames' biochemical battle armor had a mimicry technique that could perfectly conceal his true 'appearance', allowing him to fight on the front lines as a legendary magic swordsman.
In short, they would try not to reveal their identities as much as possible while rescuing the billionaire from the building.
The key to this operation was still the 'Nightlord of the Void'. Without dealing with this aberrant quasi-demigod, even if they brought the person out, it would be useless.
The Nightlord of the Void was skilled in manipulating space, so they could not escape; being caught by him would likely result in being banished to the Astral Plane.
Therefore, Li Mochen's final plan was to snipe the Nightlord of the Void when he rushed back to assist.
Hazel's other task was to use another 'divine' level magic scroll at that moment to briefly halt the Nightlord of the Void's movement, buying Li Mochen the opportunity to take the shot.
