Chapter 407 Sacred Knight Temple
Too many aspects about the 6-Star Immortal Knight called Siegfried Dracoon confused Michael quite a bit.
For a Summon to have 6-Stars, their potential must be impeccable, they must have attained various achievements and their power must have been great. However, all Michael could see in front of him was an old man, who was quite strong but unable to participate in battles, let alone war.
The only reason Michael was not frustrated about summoning Siegfried Dracoon with the Legendary Scroll was that the Immortal Knight could reconstruct the Sacred Knight Temple.
Temples were facilities similar to the training grounds. But while training grounds didn't provide any special advantages, Temples possessed the function to harness the power of the beings entering it. The comprehension and training progress of anyone entering the temple would improve drastically. At the same time, Temples had the power to promote and change the occupations of Summons as long as they reached the necessary requirements.
These requirements didn't include enlightenment, but that didn't mean the conditions to be promoted in a Temple were easy to fulfill.
That was part of the reason why the Immortal Knight said that he possessed the power to stimulate the latent potential of Michael's subjects.
Unfortunately, constructing a temple wasn't an easy task. It required hundreds of unique devices that could only be produced with blueprints. Therefore, one had to collect hundreds of blueprints before one could even think about starting the construction of a temple. As for the Sacred Knight Temple, it was an advanced construction with the means to promote Summons to 1-Star Blessed Squires, 2-Star Holy Knights, and even 3-Star Sacred Knights.
If Michael was not wrong, he would have to collect more than a thousand blueprints and collect various objects that harbored Divine Energy.
"You don't have to be worried about the blueprints or the Sacred Knight Temple's library. The Will provided me with a storage device that contains all the books and blueprints required to construct the Sacred Knight Temple. If not for the Will's generosity I would have been quite useless until the Sacred Knight Temple had been constructed," Siegfried Dracoon said in all honesty before he added, "Even though my unique traits are dependent on the level of the Sacred Knight Temple, I can use my traits to a certain extent. It shouldn't be an issue to train a few Blessed Squires while you focus on the construction of the Sacred Knight Temple."
The Immortal Knight retrieved a small medallion which he handed over without a second thought. The medallion was a storage device that contained tens of thousands of books, and hundreds of blueprints.
'Well, damn. Looks like I have a new large-scale construction project to work on.' Michael mused to himself before he turned back to the Immortal Knight.
Michael had noticed something particular when Siegfried spoke and he was intrigued enough to find out more.
"What do you mean that your traits depend on the level of the Sacred Knight Temple? Does that mean you are bound to the Sacred Knight Temple and that your traits will get stronger alongside the construction progress of the temple? If that's the case, what are your traits and how powerful are they right now?" Michael asked, his eyes filled with curiosity. nOvE)lB.1n
Having a powerful 6-Star Combat Summon would have been nice as well, but Michael felt that having the means to create his own army filled with Sacred Knights, Holy Knights, and Blessed Squires was a lot better. He was not sure how strong Blessed Squires were, but 1-Star Summons with unique occupations were usually a lot stronger than ordinary occupations. Therefore, Blessed Squires should be stronger than Warriors.
"I am indeed bound to the Sacred Knight Temple. The bond is also why I am capable of channeling Holy Power through others to stimulate and harness their bodies. That way, I can help soon-to-be Knights gather Holy Power a lot faster than they would by practicing the techniques that I'll teach them. Other than the Holy Power stimulation, I am also pretty good at instructing others. This is the second trait I possess; Instruction. Summons will learn combat from me within half the time they would usually require to understand certain facts about their weapon and how to utilize it efficiently. My traits will grow stronger as I complete the Basic Level of the Sacred Knight Temple. It won't be difficult to train dozens, if not hundreds of Blessed Knights at that point."
The more the Immortal Knight spoke the better Michael felt about having summoned someone like that old man. His earlier worries and disappointment disappeared into thin air as he realized what a valuable resource he had obtained. It was truly exceptional.
Of course, Siegfried required numerous things to unleash the full extent of his power. The Sacred Knight Temple had to be constructed, which was an extremely expensive task. It was a humongous project since the Sacred Knight Temple required various training facilities, sleeping rooms with special engravings that allowed the trainees to gather Holy Power even in their sleep, a gigantic library, places to pray and harness their minds, and whatnot. It wouldn't be easy to create the temple even if Michael was not in possession of the blueprints and books for the temple's library.
'Should I just sell the Mythic Scrolls alongside the Artifacts? Maybe that will be enough to purchase the materials to construct the Sacred Knight Temple. Or maybe it won't be enough? Though...it should suffice for the Basic level of the Sacred Knight Temple. That would already be quite helpful to create a small army of Blessed Squires, and a handful of Holy Knights...right?' Michael thought, retrieving a bunch of blueprints to figure out what materials he required and how high the level his engineers, crafter, enchanter, blacksmiths, and other subjects had to be at to construct the unique devices.
"It looks like the next few months will be a big mess. I need money...
loads of it," That was Michael's first thought. Lilica, Tiara, and the other Forest Elven Adventurers moved to Michael's side, intrigued about the blueprints their Lord had just retrieved.
Siegfried looked around and sensed the atmosphere around him. The Lord was the center of the territory, but as an old man who had lived for centuries before he succumbed, the Immortal Knight was able to tell a lot more about territories and the pillars that supported the development of the territory.
Using his superior perception, the Immortal Knight could immediately sense that the atmosphere in Michael's territory was filled with trust and loyalty. Both were required to become trainees in the Sacred Knight Temple. However, there was also something else that hung heavily in the air.
'The trust of some Summons decreased not long ago. But not for all of them. Why? The aura of death around the Lord is thick and heavy. He killed many enemies less than a week ago. Was his territory in war with another Lord? Did he lose the trust of some Summons because his military force was not on par with the Lord's individual combat prowess? Or was there something else?... Seems like I have to find out more about our Lord before it's too late...The Sacred Knight Temple and my powers cannot be in the hands of an unworthy Lord,' The Immortal Knight thought, his gaze shifting back to Michael.
'If you're unworthy, I will take back everything I gave...and I will make sure that nobody will be able to possess my powers. I would rather die and let my legacy disperse than follow an unworthy Lord!'
Michael noticed the attention he received from his new Summon. He couldn't guess what the Immortal Knight was thinking about, but Michael didn't have to be a genius to understand that most Summons with a high star rating were stubborn and unwilling to serve someone they didn't consider worthy. That was quite common to find among Summons with a high star rating since most of them had been powerful Lords in the past themselves.
For someone like the Immortal Knight to be a 6-Star Summons even though he was incapable of fighting he must have been a powerful Lord in the past. Siegfried Dracoon's achievements must have been exceptional and his knowledge as vast as the ocean to be resurrected as a 6-Star Summon even if he didn't possess the means to fight for himself.
'Just watch me!' Michael shouted in his mind, staring back at the Immortal Knight with a confident smile.
He then retrieved the remaining blueprints and gave them to Tiara.
"Please organize the blueprints and check what we need to construct the Basic level of the Sacred Knight Temple first. If you have the time, make a thorough report about the workforce required to construct the temple, the materials we need for every level, the costs to maintain the temple once completed, and whatever else you can think of," Michael ordered Tiara, who nodded her head.
He glanced over to Lilica and Opars before gesturing with his head to make sure that the two Forest Elves would follow Tiara.
Now that he could put aside the issues about the Sacred Knight temple for an hour or two until Tiara returned with the detailed report to read through, Michael returned his focus back to the summoning process.
He decided against selling the Mythic Scrolls and used all 33 Mythic Summoning Scrolls simultaneously. Michael was in dire need of powerful subordinates right now, and he couldn't get himself to sell the Mythic Scrolls. They were just too valuable for his territory's development. Furthermore, he had yet to hunt the remaining Kitsun in the Untamed Jungle.
By killing the remaining Kitsun, Michael could probably farm enough SoulStar Fragments and Ordinary Scrolls to make some quick cash.
Then again, Michael had a much better idea to make a fortune even if the prospect of actually doing it disgusted Michael.
'If it helps my territory...I might as well do it...'
