For Perfikot, researching how to summon divinities was also a brand new topic, which forced her to temporarily set aside those familiar fields and turn to a subject that, while not entirely the opposite, was entirely unrelated.
This was sowhat challenging for her.
After all, before this, all her research on divinities carried a heavy scent of blood—there was only one purpose, which was how to kill a deity, or kill more deities.
Her laboratory was filled with nurous divine remnants, all hunted along this path.
The notes recorded designs for various lethal weapons, among which quite a few were ones Perfikot didn't even plan to put into practice.
For Perfikot, killing a deity was simple; there's nothing more to it, just pile on the damage.
This simple and brutal yet extrely effective philosophy allowed her to progress remarkably smoothly on the path of godslaying.
After successfully creating the first set of Godslaying Armor and acquiring the corpse of a divinity based on it, Perfikot's research entered the fast lane.
Those precious experintal materials gave her a deeper understanding of the nature of divinities, leading to the rapid iteration of Godslaying Armor.
Nowadays, Perfikot could confidently pat her chest and say that her Godslaying Armor didn't lose to lesser gods in a one-on-one fight, and slaying them was not out of the question.
This confidence was not unfounded but built on countless real combat tests.
After all, even for lesser gods, it's hard to say they can possess a whole set of divine artifacts; usually, possessing one or two decent divine artifacts is already remarkable.
Perfikot wasn't sure if they overly relied on their own strength, or if there were too few craftsn among the divinities capable of forging divine artifacts, resulting in such a low spread of divine artifacts as essential weaponry.
But Perfikot was different. As the strongest alchemist of her ti, and a powerful alchemist wielding the Philosopher's Stone, she wouldn't even deign to greet soone if her Godslaying Armor wasn't equipped with a whole set of divine artifact-level components and equipnt.
Previously, she couldn't create them simply because she didn't know how. But after acquiring a large number of divine samples and analyzing the principles behind divine artifact manufacturing, Perfikot could even mass-produce divine artifacts.
Take Beifa as an example. Perfikot analyzed the Steam Armor that had been blessed by the War God Langton back then, and subsequently crafted a new set of comparable armor for this loyal assistant, a complete set of divine artifacts.
This set of equipnt rapidly boosted Beifa's combat power, transforming her from an ordinary Alchemy Puppet maid into an entity capable of standing against lesser gods.
Moreover, Perfikot also manufactured a full set of divine artifact weapons, including a gunblade, chain-saw sword, greatsword, shield, longbow, single-use arrows, and more.
The terrifying aspect of this equipnt was that they were divine artifacts not because they were assembled together, but because each piece on its own was a divine artifact.
Even those seemingly consumable single-use arrows each contained the power to slay gods, with formidable might.
It was precisely because of this that Perfikot could maintain an advantage in battles against divinities.
Although Perfikot often felt like those divinities were presenting themselves on a silver platter—after all, they ca one after another to trouble her, like queuing up to die.
But Perfikot knew clearly in her heart that even if they ca to her voluntarily, she needed enough strength to "gratefully accept" this "gift."
Otherwise, it wouldn't be a gift but a truly fatal assault.
And up to now, there has not been any "gift" from a divinity that she was unable to handle.
Her laboratory was filled with nurous remains of divine corpses, each an illustrious battle achievent worthy of a place in history.
These spoils, although mostly lesser gods or divine attendants, the divinity flowing in their bodies was genuine.
Their corpses were divine bodies containing imnse energy, even a single drop of divine blood was invaluable and would spark a bloody struggle if left outside.
Perfikot always adhered to the principle of "make full use of every part," and these divine corpses were ticulously dissected and refined by her, ultimately becoming precious raw materials for manufacturing new types of Godslaying Armor.
It's worth noting, however, that not all Godslaying Armor needed to use divine corpses as top-tier materials; Perfikot would flexibly adjust equipnt configuration based on the strength of the enemy.
For instance, in this battle against Sekht, the two Godslaying Armors deployed were new mass-production models made with common materials.
After all, the number of divine corpses was limited, and there were too many places in the Empire that needed defense, if they could not be widely produced, and costs lowered, Godslaying Armor could not fulfill the role of protecting humanity.
Especially since Perfikot, although unsure why divine attacks only targeted her, clearly could not be under the illusion that the divinities would always follow only her.
Thus she would use ordinary materials to create mass-production Godslaying Armors, not seeking incredible strength but at least capable of holding its own against lesser gods or divine attendants.
And precisely because of this, they would sustain damage in battles with divinities.
If the Godslaying Armor was made using divine corpses as raw materials, then against sothing like Sekht who didn't even have a true form but was only summoned through a core of divinity, it would have been slain in just one encounter.
