No matter what you do, cost is always the core issue.

Opening the Abyss passage was not difficult for Logo. He only needed to set up a Rune Array and beckon to the Abyss, and this most powerful superplane in the Astral Realm would pounce on it like a hungry wolf that had spotted its prey.

Destruction other planes is the instinctive reaction of the Abyss Will.

Therefore, in the Astral Realm, actively locating the Abyss is, to some extent, tantamount to suicide, because it is equivalent to directly revealing one's coordinates.

Few forces would dare to do this unless they were absolutely certain of victory; the courage to open the gates of Destruction is destined to exist only among true Hero and reckless fools.

Logo possesses the coordinates of the shallow layers of the Abyss, as well as detailed information, making him a true Hero, not a mindless brute. Because of this, he needs to make more arrangements and preparations to ensure everything goes smoothly before he begins to open the Abyss passage.

First, with sufficient resources, the number of the Nirvana Legion in the first and second phases will reach 30,000. This is not difficult to achieve; we just need to wait.

Secondly, the Holy Spirit Bird will be transformed into Colossus. The God of War, Ares, has already been born, and the second Colossus will not be too late. At the latest, it can be forged within a year. Due to the better materials and more abundant resources, once the Colossus transformed from the Holy Spirit Bird is completed, its combat power will definitely surpass that of the God of War, Ares.

Third, develop enough targeted equipment to sustain the war effort through combat.

The Demon Slaughterhouse is Demigod used to implement this strategy.

Logo envisioned the Demon Slaughterhouse as a combination of a war fortress and a logistical base.

They block the Abyss passage, Slaughter demons, collect the corpses of the dead demons, and refine the Abyss Power and various demon-related materials. The Abyss Power is stored for future use in the advancement of the Nirvana Tower, while the demon-related materials are processed and manufactured to produce "demon soldiers." The demon soldiers are then deployed to the battlefield to sustain the war effort and create a positive cycle of resources.

Once Logo's vision is realized, the ferocious and tyrannical demon race will become an inexhaustible source of resources for him, adding another high-energy engine to his already rampaging war machine.

However, the more promising the vision, the higher the investment required.

To achieve the effect Logo envisioned, the Demon Slaughterhouse's quality must be at least Legend, or even Immortal.

Otherwise, they'll likely be unable to subdue those vicious Demigod. If they manage to break through from within, that would be ridiculous. Not only would it backfire, but all the previous huge investment would be wasted.

So here's the problem: Legend quality and above Demigod are extremely rare and hard to come by. The only way to get them consistently is to increase their quantity.

These are the two talents: [Power of Legend] and [Power of Immortality].

Legend quality Demon Slaughterhouse: Crafting 5 Rare quality Demon Slaughterhouse guarantees the production of one.

Immortal- quality Demon Slaughterhouse requires the creation of 50 Rare- quality Demon Slaughterhouse to reliably produce one.

Furthermore, if Logo doesn't want to lower the probability, he must put in enough effort and not be perfunctory.

Based on this calculation, Logo would need to craft 50 of these Demigod, such as the Demon Slaughterhouse.

Based on the prices in the Prado Universe System, on average, a Rare- quality Demigod costs between 9,000 and 30,000 Star Wheel Star Wheel.

If Logo manufactures them himself, excluding labor costs and only considering raw material input, he estimates that he can maintain a stable output of 5,000 Star Wheel per piece.

Normally it shouldn't be this expensive, but the raw materials are hard to find.

Many of the resources needed to create Demon Slaughterhouse are scarce, and Abyss resources are plentiful.

In other words, for a long time, all the Abyss materials that Logo collected would have to be put into the Demon Slaughterhouse.

50 × 5000 = 250,000 Star Wheel.

Another huge investment is needed; the money earned from selling the land isn't enough, and there's still a shortfall of over 100,000.

Money! Money! Money!

Money is needed everywhere. Logo was numb; his wallet was too weak to even groan. If it could speak, it would say, "I'm tired. Destruction it..."

Life had to go on, Logo quickly rallied, encouraging himself as he silently got to work.

Fifty Demon Slaughterhouse —that's a huge project, and it'll take a long time. We need to step up our efforts.

While Logo's main consciousness was busily working in the Nirvana Tower, the An Alliance on Planet Oklo had also been brewing its desire for currency reform for a long time.

On this day, several high-ranking members of the An Alliance gathered together to discuss important matters.

Among them is Grand Duke Mitar Kurovice of the Morning Star Duchy in the Seven Magitech Nations, who is currently the Minister of the Mining Resources Department of the An Alliance.

Aske Brian, the leader of the Gonis City-State, one of the four major powers in the Xiya Archipelago, is currently the Minister of Technology of the An Alliance.

Dusk Giant Scorpion A'erk anbeiqi, one of the four lords of the southern coast of the Radiant Continent, is currently the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces of the An Alliance.

The three of them represent the three major groups that make up the An Alliance.

The Holy Stone People, the Xiya Archipelago, and the four lords of the southern coast.

Anyone with even a modicum of political acumen can see that this seemingly small gathering is actually being orchestrated by powerful figures from various sectors behind the scenes.

Consider the identities of these three individuals.

Grand Duke Mitar of the Morning Star, a fervent fan of Logo, has declared more than once that he is willing to pay any price to become Logo's student and study alchemy under his tutelage.

Yask Brian is also a fan of Logo, but the more crucial point is that the Gonis City-State itself has formed a deep bond of interests with the Gendaya Royal Court, and the source of these interests is the mechs.

Dusk Giant Scorpion A'erk anbeiqi, while not a fan of Logo, is a major supplier of raw materials for Gendaya King's industry and the largest customer for the insect alchemical weapons produced by the Royal Court. Its own interests are also deeply intertwined with Logo's.

With these three powerful individuals closely connected to Logo sitting together, it's not hard to guess what they're discussing, given a little thought and the current state of affairs within the An Alliance.

As expected, Grand Duke Mitar of the Morning Star, a die-hard fan of Logo, was the first to speak.

The Holy Stone People with a thick beard reaching his chest looked around and then boomed, "Gentlemen, we need a leader!"

Mitar made a stunning start, revealing his true intentions without any pretense.

Even though Yask Blaine and Dusk Giant Scorpion A'erk anbeiqi were prepared, they were still quite shaken, especially the latter. After hearing Mitar's words, the venomous stinger on his back swayed involuntarily, showing the intense turmoil in his heart.

It's not surprising that Dusk Giant Scorpion A'erk anbeiqi reacted this way.

After all, strictly speaking, it is the younger brother of the Sunset Lord Sunset Lord, who is currently serving as the chairman of the An Alliance.

Given Mitar's fanatical admiration for Logo, it's obvious even to a fool that the leader he's referring to is definitely not the Sunset Lord.

It would be quite awkward to say we need a leader in front of Sunset Lord's underlings, especially when that leader doesn't even refer to Sunset Lord himself.

Fortunately, there were only a few people present. If it had been in a public place, Dusk Giant Scorpion A'erk anbeiqi would most likely have turned hostile and refuted him. Otherwise, he might have been ambushed by a cat's claw at any time. As everyone knows, the Sunset Lord is not a very magnanimous person.
