At the same time that Minos was working with the army specialists in the Spatial Kingdom, Abby was in the army headquarters watching a battle between level 90 soldiers.

Two army warriors in different armors were standing on the highest battle platform in the barracks, while more than 20 people were standing near Abby on one of the stands.

Among these were some of the army's Demigods, professionals such as blacksmiths and array masters, but also relevant members of the empire's forces, such as allies and government members.

That was the case with Forrest, but also with Dillian and the rulers of Albano, Rosser, and Blackrock.

They were all watching the demonstration of the Black Plain Army soldiers' ability not only to use the alien armor but also to replicate it.

On one side of the battle was a level 90 soldier wearing alien armor brought from the North Sea. On the other side was a soldier of the same level wearing a new model of armor developed from the discoveries already made about the extraterritorial model.

This new model was still under development and had only been released for testing a few days ago. However, it was so promising that Minos' closest allies marveled at how far the Black Plain Empire had come.

The rulers of Blackrock, Albano, and Rosser, currently between levels 83 and 84, didn't know how far other powers had progressed with alien technology. But they could see how advanced Minos' state was just by watching the two of them fight.

The Demigod wearing the alien armor was definitely imposing himself on his opponent. However, his opponent didn't suffer too much. He was able to dodge some of his opponent's moves from time to time. At the same time, he was able to defend himself without being destroyed in a single blow, and he was also able to attack.

That might not sound like much, but the same witnesses had seen the same Demigods fight without their armor. Then, one of them wore alien armor, and the other wore a normal piece of equipment from the Spiritual World.

In the first battle, the result had been fairly even because the two Demigods were members of Minos' army and had similar techniques and cultivation. But when one used the alien equipment, the other lost any chance of fighting on equal terms.

The Demigod wearing the alien armor needed only one blow to defeat his opponent!

Such a display of power was so impressive that Abby and these rulers were sure that the Demigod wearing the alien armor could even challenge level 92 Demigods with good odds in his favor!

Because of these two confrontations, in which the same men had fought to the limit of their strength, these people could see how advanced the methods of Minos' men already were.

"The army's developing armor still loses a lot compared to the alien creation. However, it is already superior to the armor of the same classification we have in our world." Iris West said as she clenched her fist. "The man who wears it has a fighting ability similar to that of a level 91 warrior!"

"That seems to be the case."

"That's impressive." Queen Rosser commented with a smile. "I can see that this armor can't do some of the tricks of the alien creation yet, but in terms of combat, it already seems to be between 40% and 50% of the level of the alien version."

"That's right." Abby, who was in charge of the project to replicate the alien technology in the empire's armor, said. "We are still facing problems with various parts of the enemy armor to make our model as compact as the enemy's, as well as auxiliary parts of it.

But we are confident that we will be able to absorb the essence for ourselves, the protective part and the part that increases the wearer's combat ability."

King Blackrock understood the Black Plain Empire's proposal and asked. "Will the empire's new armor be for sale?"

"No. Only those who contribute to the project during its development will have the chance to receive their own models." Abby said.

Dillian stood up and said to the Minos' allies there, "The empire has plenty of resources. But given our current needs, we need as much support as possible from our allies.

Natural resources, crystals, men, in short, any kind of support is welcome. Only in this way will we be able to speed up the development of the empire and increase our chances of producing enough of this armor model to distribute to our supporters."

The Black Plain Empire spent billions of crystals every month to maintain agricultural and local development projects based on enemy technologies!

It wasn't enough to bankrupt the state. Still, the empire was getting to the point where it was using up more and more of its reserves and no longer had enough guarantees to attract foreign "brains" to join its development efforts.

Because of this, they needed maximum support from their allies, such as the Flaming Empire, Blackrock, Rosser, and Albano.

Isabella was already doing her best to get more support from her family's state. Now, Abby was presenting concrete evidence of what her state could offer their friends in the future, which obviously served to convince these three leaders to join Minos more meaningfully.

The three looked at each other, thinking basically the same thing.

'With this new model of armor, we can be much stronger when the war comes!'

Forrest was impressed by Minos' progress with alien technology, having just seen something that he knew few in the Spiritual World had been able to replicate.

'Perhaps I should join Gloria Frost's faction.' He thought to himself, knowing he couldn't offer the same as those leaders but that his support could mean a lot to Gloria and Minos.

As a level 95 Demigod who had several other powerful Demigods in his network of influence, his support alone could get him what these three rulers were after.

"I understand. His Majesty Minos Stuart can expect the full support of Blackrock. We will do our best to increase the pace of local development."

"Rosser will not be left behind. We still have a lot of spiritual professionals wasting their time in our state. I'll try to convince as many of them as possible to come to Dry City."

"My kingdom will support you financially. I hope you will use our crystals to attract Demigods to our side." Queen West said, aware that she didn't have many resources or people Minos might be interested in.

"My group will join Cardinal Frost's faction," Forrest commented.
