Tearing open the Shadow Space, Leo stepped in again.
In the Shadow Space, the land was littered with mountains of mechs, all casually killed by Leo. There were too many level 1 to 3 mechs to count; Leo had no idea how many there were.
The three thousand Yaoyao figures on the Godslaying Wizard Robe sent every mecha part they could find into the Shadow Space, like locusts swarming across the land, leaving no detail untouched.
Among these mechs, the two 200-meter-tall Level 4 mechs are the most eye-catching.
One of the bodies was slightly more badly damaged, with a huge laser emitter on its chest. It was the one Leo had forcibly pulled out of the spatial rift. Its death was rather ignominious; it hadn't even had a chance to fight Leo before it died at the hands of Leo and the spatial rift.
There's also the red mech that ambushed Leo. During the battle, Leo withstood countless laser attacks and completely disassembled it; now over 95% of its parts can be restored.
These two mechs are among the biggest gains of this expedition.
Leo didn't linger at the mecha, but instead headed towards the lake. He had caught many rare fish in the small world of the God's Dwelling, and wanted to observe whether they were adapting to the environment.
It would be such a shame if they all died because they couldn't adapt!!
These rare fish species are extremely valuable; they are so precious that money can hardly buy them!
When Leo reached the lake, he indeed saw that all the rare fish he had painstakingly caught were listless, and some of them were even on the verge of death!
I knew this would happen.
The more endangered a species is, the more demanding its environmental requirements are. When they move here from the small Marsh World, even a slightly poor environment can make them contemplate suicide.
Leo reached out and took out a small bottle, then poured all the sky-blue Water Element Essence inside into the lake with a pained expression.
In an instant, the entire lake seemed to radiate light, and the rare fish that had just been listless and on the verge of death all perked up, excitedly wagging their tails like propellers, as if they had been injected with chicken blood, and greedily swallowing the water vapor in the lake.
A rich aura of water element was released from the lake, and even the concentration of water energy in the air of the Shadow Space was rapidly increasing, reaching three times its previous concentration in just a short while.
Leo had long anticipated this outcome; the ocean within the God's Dwelling contained the essence of the entire Marsh World, far surpassing the capabilities of his lake.
Even though the lake in his Shadow Space was evolved from the Devouring World Lord, it still couldn't compare to a small plane that had been cultivated for tens of thousands of years.
However, now that the Water Element Essence has been replenished, the conditions in these lakes far surpass those of the ocean, the God's Dwelling, allowing these fish to enjoy a better environment for growth.
Every time they stirred the lake, the splashing sound was like the clinking of energy crystals!
It's such a pity that I gave all thirty Water Element Essence to these fish before I even used them myself.
This was something even Interstellar Wanderer tried to steal back then!!!
Moreover, this might be the last remaining Water Element Essence in the entire Marsh World!!
However, all the effort is worthwhile in cultivating the Shadow Space!
Most of the rare species have recovered their vitality thanks to the replenishment of Water Element Essence, but some rare species remain listless.
Take the Red Tai Fish, for example. It is a fire-type fish and is not afraid of too much water energy, but it is afraid of too little fire energy.
The environment he's in now is clearly lacking in fire energy, preventing him from replenishing his strength, which naturally makes him listless.
This is also why the Red Tai Fish disappeared from the Wizard World, because its environmental requirements were too demanding. It needed both water and fire energy to survive, and only when water and fire interacted could it survive.
Fortunately, Leo's Shadow Space is different from other places.
Leo's mental energy stirred slightly, and the fire elemental energy around the three thousand Red Tai Fish rapidly increased. The fire elemental energy of the entire space gathered around them, and they devoured the fire elemental energy, immediately swimming vigorously.
The other listless varieties were also picky about their environment, but under Leo's ability to alter the rules of the Shadow Space, they instantly became vibrant, adjusting the temperature, reducing the water flow, or raising the water level to form a small waterfall.
Leo wants to change the environment according to their preferences so that they can live better here, and in this way, he can create more wealth for Leo!
This is what makes the Shadow Space so terrifying: its rules can be altered, allowing any creature to find its own environment to survive.
After the rules were changed based on their characteristics, all the rare species became energetic.
Leo also threw some high-energy food into the lake, letting these rare fish species feast on it.
No one's wealth comes overnight; it's all accumulated little by little.
Although the Shadow Space currently only has 108 rules, these rules will gradually be improved as Leo progresses.
Leo wondered many times: if he waited for the Shadow Space to evolve into a complete world, and then stayed there without leaving, could he break free from the shackles of lifespan and achieve immortality, truly living as long as the world itself?
However, he only thought about this; he dared not try it out. What if it didn't work? He'd be in big trouble!
Leo also created a planting plan for the Shadow Space, based on the list of rare species recorded by Yaoyao.
Some of these seeds are available on the mothership; Leo can access them and plant them at any time.
Some of them can only be bought at high prices in the Wizard World!
The future of the Shadow Space is a world museum of rare species, where we must collect all the precious materials!
After planting the rare species that could be found on the mothership, Leo began to deal with the mecha issue.
With all the World Lord of the Marsh World dead, Leo is now largely unnecessary to fight on the battlefield, giving him ample time to research mechs on the mothership.
From disassembly to the study of each part, and finally the assembly, it only took one year to fully understand all the knowledge contained in the level 1 to 3 mechs.
It took another four years to fully study the knowledge contained within the Level 4 mechs.
The next step is to improve the mechs by incorporating wizarding knowledge.
Leo didn't know if it was because they were completely controlled by the World Tree, but these mechs had very strong limitations. Based on their material usage and knowledge level, even without the intervention of wizard knowledge, their attack power could be increased by 20% on the current basis.
But they didn't; they continued to use the severely restricted models.
Leo guessed that their mechs had developed to this level when the World Tree was controlling them, and after being controlled, the World Tree didn't plan to develop them further, so the mech research and development remained at the original level.
To the World Tree, the improvement of lower-level life forms makes no difference. Whether it's a 20% increase or a 2000% increase, it will still be the same.
With a few minor modifications, Leo can increase the mecha's strength by 40%, and even raise its upper limit.
The upper limit of a mech depends on the energy crystals it consumes and the skill of the pilot. Theoretically, there is no limit to how much money can be spent on it.
Leo only created a few samples to verify the feasibility of his hypothesis before stopping.
He didn't have any plans to build a mech for himself; he simply stopped after advancing his theoretical knowledge of improved wizard mechs to level four.
This is sufficient for the academy's wizards. With these mechs, their strength can be increased by 30% to 60%, and if they study them more carefully based on their own characteristics, they can increase their strength even more.
Their path doesn't need to be dictated by Leo; all Leo can do is provide them with a direction.
Whether they choose to choose or not, and what they do after choosing, is their own decision!
Leo held a small nuclear fusion energy generator in his hand. This was a small nuclear fusion generator that he had handcrafted. If it exploded, it could unleash an attack power of over 100,000 points!
The idea was to integrate a small-scale nuclear fusion reactor into his improved mech to assist the wizard in controlling it and reduce the wizard's workload.
But Leo had improved the mech, looked at the installed small nuclear fusion reactor and suddenly laughed, "Isn't this just a wizard's version of Iron Man and the Jaeger from Pacific Rim?"
The mechs look similar, but they are completely different in essence. The two combat modes are mainly based on the mechs, while Leo's mech is mainly based on controlling a wizard.
Heavenly Capital, Leo writes down knowledge about mechs on the mothership, striving to maximize the utilization of these mechs.
Yaoyao would send back a message every few days, telling Leo how many mechs they had acquired and how many other resources they had, her tone full of praise.
Leo offered a few perfunctory praises, then encouraged Yaoyao to continue working for him with renewed enthusiasm.
The sea below the mothership was already crammed with captured Water Marsh People. To prevent these Water Marsh People from starving to death,
Millions of slaves were needed to herd fish for them to eat.
"Open a spatial portal and deal with these prisoners for the merchant caravan first. If they aren't dealt with soon, they'll eat all the food in the ocean."
Because of Leo and the Interstellar Wanderer ' delaying tactics, the time to capture prisoners was brought forward, resulting in an unusually large number of prisoners being captured.
In the beginning, even the smallest micro- Gnoll World captured tens of millions of prisoners. This is a medium-sized world, and the number of prisoners here is hundreds of times that of the Gnoll World.
Although the Water Marsh People are the ruling race of the Marsh World, the combined numbers of other races are also considerable, even exceeding the number of the Water Marsh People.
As a result, after only twenty years of arrests, the entire sea area was filled.
The Interstellar Wanderer were at a loss as to give the order to open the spatial passage directly, so hundreds of thousands of wizards immediately sprang into action, and in less than three months a massive spatial passage was opened over the sea.
Merchant caravans that had already made arrangements in the Wizard World Wizard World poured in immediately, bringing back prisoners in large numbers.
This relieved the pressure on their expeditionary wizard army, while a steady stream of wizarding rings were delivered to the mothership, each ring filled with energy crystals.
