"Mask?"
Hearing this word, Su Mo was slightly startled, and then said in surprise.
"Have you been able to successfully recreate Odin's mask?"
During the battle between Media Asia Group and Odin, in addition to obtaining the Black King's egg, their other important gain was the Odin mask on Chu Tianjiao.
Whether you look at Chu Tianjiao's previous performance or the description in the original work, the performance of Odin's mask is very good.
Nearly 100% long-distance delivery of Dragon King-level power is an important tool for Su Mo's side to fully unleash Fenrir's idle combat power.
Although Su Mo's biggest trump card is Lu Mingze, Lu Mingze's power seems incomplete. He can be used as the ultimate insurance, but cannot be used frequently.
In the previous battle with Odin, Lu Mingze was injured because of Gangnir. Although according to Lu Mingze, his injury has long since recovered, it will still have an impact after all.
Even as an ally, it was not easy for Su Mo to ask Lu Mingze how much power he had left, and it would be impossible for Lu Mingze to tell the truth.
In this case, a trump card that can temporarily replace Lu Mingze is crucial.
Constantine and Fenrir are both the stronger of the twins, and borrowing the power of either of them is enough to deal with most situations.
Even if Odin is reborn, except for Gangnir, who deserves to be feared, other powers can be offset by the Dragon King's violence.
"Replicate Odin's mask?"
Hearing Su Mo's words, Lu Mingze curled his lips disdainfully.
"What's the point of talking about such a non-technical thing? When it comes to the field of [separation of cause and effect], Odin has to call me daddy!"
[Separation of cause and effect] is one of the seven kingdoms of alchemy. According to Lu Mingze, Odin's mask was successfully created using this technology.
Counting [Conceptual Arms] and [Space Opening], Odin alone has reached at least three of the seven kingdoms of alchemy.
He is worthy of being called the Dragon King with the strongest alchemy under the Black King. In the field of alchemy, even the White King probably cannot compare with him, and it is not unfair for Norton to lose to him.
"Even if you are not in this field, Odin still has a reason to call you daddy!"
Su Mo complained, and then asked curiously.
"You mean, you did more than just recreate it?"
"certainly."
Lu Mingze said matter-of-factly.
"Although most of my strength lies with my brother, I am not someone that a brat like Odin can touch. It's just a mask. I completed the replica more than ten days ago!"
In other words, he completed a comprehensive analysis and reproduction of the mask within less than a week after receiving it.
Lu Mingze was much better at alchemy than Su Mo thought.
"From what you say, your alchemy is much stronger than Odin's?"
Su Mo asked.
"That's natural!"
Lu Mingze sounded proud, obviously dismissive of Odin.
Although Odin's alchemy is the strongest under the Black King, Lu Mingze's identity is the new Black King, so he is naturally above Odin.
"So, you can also build Gungnir?"
Su Mo's eyes suddenly lit up and he said.
"In this case, what kind of mask should we make? Wouldn't it be enough for everyone to just have Gangnir in hand?"
Odin was able to injure Lu Mingze with just the power of an ordinary dragon king, and Gangnir played a decisive role in it.
If Lu Mingze could also create an artifact like Gangnir, many things would be much easier.
"Well……"
Hearing this, Lu Mingze was speechless for a moment.
"It's not impossible to build props like Gungnir if I were in my heyday, but it's not possible now."
"Why?"
Su Mo said doubtfully.
"Isn't your alchemy better than Odin's?"
"This is not a matter of alchemy, it has something to do with authority. Most of my power now lies in my brother, and I cannot create such a weapon that requires authority to assist in forging."
Lu Mingze explained slightly awkwardly.
"Simple props like masks can be made directly, but complex artifacts like Gangnir must be assisted by authority."
Hearing this, Su Mo was thoughtful.
Indeed, although Lu Mingze's conceptual weapons have many variations, they are actually temporary smelted copies each time, and there are no actual artifacts like Gangnir and the Seven Deadly Sins.
Concept weapons are very powerful in terms of flexibility and versatility, but if you want to pursue maximum power, the upper limit of actual forged weapons should be higher.
"I understand, so you can't do it, right?"
Su Mo nodded and made a simple summary.
Pass it on, Lu Mingze can’t do it!
"...How can you say I'm not good at it? It's impossible to cast a second gun with the concept of Gangnir!"
Lu Mingze muttered something unconvinced, but it sounded like he was making excuses, so he didn't say anything more, but cleared his throat and changed the topic.
"Ahem! Gangnir and the like are not important. What is important is that after these days of careful research, I have greatly modified and upgraded Odin's mask!"
"Remodeling and upgrading?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Mi's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Could it be said that you have completed the function mentioned before and can fuse the twins' powers together through the mask?"
What she wants most is this feature.
Based on the current characteristics of Odin's mask, even if Xia Mi wears a mask that can borrow Fenrir's authority and can use the power of the two dragon kings at the same time, it can only be used separately. It cannot be directly used like the twins devouring and merging.
Promoted from the realm of kings to the realm of gods.
If the power of the twins can be fused through the mask, then Xia Mi can directly obtain the power of the God of Death Hela through trickery without separating the consciousness and power of the Dragon King.
In this way, not only would she get the Doomsday Ark she longed for with Su Mo, but she would also be able to support Su Mo's plan with the power of the God of Death, Hela. Wouldn't it be wonderful?
"It's not to this extent."
Lu Mingze said with a depressed look.
"Didn't I say before that this kind of thing is not feasible in principle! It's not that I can't do it, it's that I simply can't do it!"
Hearing Lu Mingze deny this possibility, Xia Mi suddenly showed a disappointed expression.
"Hey, can't you do this? It seems that Su Mo is right, you really can't do it!"
"#!"
Hearing this, Lu Mingze's face turned dark and his tone became unkind.
"You two are here to mess with my mentality, right? It only takes two weeks in total, and you dare to make these demands. Why don't you let me go and clear Nidhogg alone?!"
What do these two crouching dragon and phoenix chicks think? Gangnir, the fusion of authority. Either one of them involves the mysteries of the realm of God. How can he possibly handle it now that he is only a half-broken body?
If he could really handle it alone, then he wouldn't need these troublesome allies.
"If you are really willing to fight Nidhogg alone, we can cheer you on from the side."
Su Mo's tone was sincere.
"Remember to leave Mother Zero to me then!"
Xia Mi has already begun to think about Lu Mingze's legacy.
"..."
Lu Mingze began to regret his choice. Are these two people really reliable?
"Okay, no kidding!"
Before Lu Mingze was completely speechless, Su Mo brought the topic back on track.
"You said that the mask has been upgraded. In what aspects have you improved?"
Hearing Su Mo's question, Lu Mingze put aside his previous depression and answered.
"In terms of functionality, I have not changed it. The main improvement is in the control aspect. Since you plan to use the mask yourself, you must want to control the power of the Dragon King yourself instead of being beaten for you, right?"
The Odin Mask is very good at transmitting power, but it has a fatal problem that prevents it from being put into use.
This is the problem with manipulators.
Odin created the mask to allow himself to remotely control or autonomously host his clone, so the will of the mask user will be suppressed, and the will of the Dragon King projected by the mask itself will dominate.
If it were just a replica of the same mask, Su Mo, wearing Fenrir's mask, would certainly be able to use Fenrir's authority, but at that time the person controlling the body would be Fenrir himself.
And with Fenrir's IQ, even if he gained the ability to move freely through Su Mo, he would most likely not be able to exert his full power, and the help would not be very great.
Therefore, the best situation is when Su Mo can use the power of the mask, but his own will is dominant.
With Su Mo's ability, he can unleash the full power of the Dragon King and become an extremely formidable opponent.
"Indeed."
Su Mo nodded. It's not as interesting to do it on behalf of others as it is to do it yourself.
"So, your improved mask allows the user to directly use the power of the mask without being affected by the source of the power at all?"
Su Mo's eyes brightened slightly.
If he can really do this, then he will really have an extremely powerful trump card.
It may not be as powerful as an artifact like Gangnir, but it can still allow him to experience the power of a true dragon king.
Hearing what Su Mo said, Lu Mingze hesitated slightly.
"It's impossible to be completely unaffected by the Dragon King's will. After all, so far, I can't separate the Dragon King's will and authority."
Speaking of this, Lu Mingze sounded a little helpless.
The Dragon King's will and authority are deeply bound and difficult to separate. Since the mask can project the Dragon King's power, it will inevitably attract the Dragon King's will.
"However, I tried to use the alchemical matrix to suppress the activity of the Dragon King's consciousness, making its impact much weaker. The mask user only needs to be able to suppress the weakened Dragon King's will to commandeer his power."
Having said this, Lu Mingze paused and said in a hesitant tone.
"Su Mo, with your level of willpower to withstand the fourth level of violent bloodshed, it should be possible to defeat the suppressed Constantine and gain dominance."
After hearing Lu Mingze's last words and noticing his uncertain tone, Xia Mi wrinkled his beautiful eyebrows.
"Should? Is it possible? Why does it sound so unreliable? Is it really not dangerous?"
"If it's you who uses it, there's definitely no danger."
Lu Mingze shook his head and replied.
Regardless of her strength, Xia Mi's identity and will are at the Dragon King level. Even if she confronts her head-on, her will will most likely not lose to other Dragon Kings, let alone the weakened Dragon King's will.
"But I'm not sure about Su Mo, otherwise I wouldn't have asked him to help with the experiment."
Lu Mingze said extremely frankly.
Even he could not measure the strength of something like will, so he didn't know whether Su Mo could resist it.
The reason why he needed Su Mo to cooperate with the experiment was to make final adjustments to the finished product he forged.
"How risky is it to confront the Dragon King's will?"
Xia Mi asked worriedly.
"There will be a small risk."
Lu Mingze said very frankly.
"If Su Mo loses to the Dragon King's will, he will be controlled by the mask and cannot predict what the Dragon King will do with his body."
"Then you still let him do experiments!"
Miss Xia Mi's tone became a little rude.
"It's normal to have risks, as long as the risks are controllable."
Lu Mingze didn't care about the tone of this love brain, he explained patiently.
"Even if something unexpected happens, as long as there are people with enough strength around him to check on him and take off the mask in time, there will be no problem."
"People with enough strength..."
Upon hearing this request, Xia Mi nodded immediately. Wasn't this just talking about himself?
"I can indeed protect Su Mo from causing problems, but can I just take off the mask? Will there be any other sequelae?"
"Of course not. My craftsmanship is not that bad."
Lu Mingze immediately gave his assurance.
"Actually, the biggest difficulty in using this kind of mask is the confrontation with the Dragon King's will. It is a constant confrontation. As long as you can survive this level, there will be no problem."
"But having said that, this kind of confrontation with the Dragon King's will is also a kind of exercise for the individual. It will help Su Mo improve his confidence in successfully opening the fifth level of violent blood and completely becoming a god."
Lu Mingze had the highest expectations for Su Mo's future among all the people.
In contrast, Xia Mi had no expectations for Su Mo, and she was very satisfied with Su Mo now.
"So, the experiment you want me to do is to try on your mask and see if I can withstand the will of the Dragon King?"
Su Mo also roughly understood what Lu Mingze meant and concluded.
"You can say that."
Lu Mingze nodded and then added something.
"Of course, if the experiment wants to have real results, the best target at present is Constantine, Xia Mi and Fenrir are not good enough."
Whether it was unintentional or intentional revenge, Lu Mingze emphasized the word "no".
"Is it because the two of them can't seriously confront me?"
Su Mo immediately understood Lu Mingze's concerns.
"Yes."
Lu Mingze nodded.
"But in other words, if you just want to borrow Fenrir's power, the difficulty will be much lower than Constantine."
After putting on the masks, the battle of wills between the two parties determined the final dominance.
But if the will on the mask has no intention of competing, then the user can simply win without a fight.
Obviously, neither Xia Mi nor Fenrir could have a real confrontation with Su Mo.
A fight without murderous intent has no weight.
