Chapter 594: Chapter 577: Silver of Silent Extinction

Identify the cause, correct it, and continue.

Correct. Continue.

The second trial.

The tenth, the one hundred and fifty-third...

A conventional Alchemy Master would need at least three years to complete this level of trial-and-error iteration, or they might even go bankrupt from a series of furnace explosions. Allen, however, only took three days.

This was because he wasn’t fumbling in the dark at all. The Metal Law’s "Insight" ability was like a searchlight hanging high above the gates of truth, illuminating every blind spot in the microscopic world. Every failure was instantly analyzed, errors were precisely pinpointed to the atomic level, and the next experiment directly bypassed all known mistakes.

One month later.

On the experimental table, five brand-new metal samples were quietly lined up. Jarvis’s voice rang out again after a long silence.

[Commander, all five new types of alloys have completed their basic tests. They are being sequentially numbered and registered into the database.]

[Alloy No. 1, named: Gold-Devouring Copper. Base: Purgatory Demon Iron + Sulfur Fire Crystal Iron + trace amounts of Star Gold. Characteristics: When this alloy comes into contact with other metals or flesh, it initiates erosive disintegration at the molecular level. Test data shows that a Gold-Devouring Copper sample can erode to a depth of 3.2 centimeters after continuously contacting a standard Radiant Black Steel Armor plate for 10 seconds. Applicable direction: Bladed portions of melee weapons, armor-piercing warhead coatings.]

[Alloy No. 2, named: Burning Stream Copper. Base: Demon Breath Copper Sand + Purgatory Demon Iron + Refined Red Copper. Core characteristics: Thermal conductivity reaches 4.6 times that of known level 4 metal materials, and its overall performance improves rather than degrades in high-temperature environments. Applicable direction: Engine heat dissipation systems, thermal management components for high-energy weapons.]

[Alloy No. 3, named: Abyssal Lead. Base: Abyssal Lead Ore + Nether River Sinking Silver + Radiant Black Steel. Core characteristics: This alloy can passively absorb sound waves, the visible light spectrum, and Soul Perception fluctuations within a two-meter radius. In testing, a Level 3 Golem covered in an Abyssal Lead coating had its signal strength attenuated by 98.7% under Thanatos’s Soul Perception scan. Applicable direction: Stealth coatings for machine bodies, outer shells for reconnaissance-type Golems.]

[Alloy No. 4, named: Demon Pan Steel. Base: Radiant Black Steel + Star Gold + Purgatory Demon Iron + Spiritual Remains Steel powder. Core characteristics: The comprehensive strength is 2.1 times that of Radiant Black Steel. More importantly, this alloy has an extremely strong "feedback absorption" ability for impact forces. Impact energy exceeding the critical threshold will not cause structural fracture; instead, it will be progressively absorbed by a special buffer layer inside the lattice, converted into thermal energy, and expelled along heat dissipation routes. Applicable direction: Main load-bearing skeletons of large Golems, naval armor.]

These four metals each filled a long-standing material gap in Allen’s military-industrial system caused by the rising tier of his enemies. In the past, researching even a single one of these materials would have required years of "lottery-style" trial and error.

But none of them were the most important achievement of this past month.

[Alloy No. 5, named: Silent Extinction Silver.]

On the experimental table, the metal sample placed right in the center quietly emanated a cold, silver-gray luster within the constant-temperature Force Field.

[Base: Purgatory Demon Iron + Nether River Sinking Silver + Radiant Black Steel. Core additive: 0.15% Dawn Star Soul Crystal powder, acting as a neutralizing stabilizer on the level of Laws.]

[Core characteristics: After shaping, this alloy continuously radiates a "Magic Suppression Field" outward. Within a spherical radius of five meters, regional Magic Activity is suppressed to below 20% of its normal value.]

The data continued to scroll.

[Empirical conclusion: For any magic configuration that does not contain the Power of Laws—Witchcraft Models, Elemental Erosion, etc.—upon entering this range, the Magic Power maintaining its structure will be disrupted and suppressed, causing the witchcraft configuration to spontaneously disintegrate and collapse. In testing, a standard Mid-Level Energy Impact Spell completely dismantled when it entered within 3.7 meters of the Silent Extinction Silver sample, with the residual energy dissipating in the form of thermal radiation.]

[Physical strength: 1.2 times that of Radiant Black Steel. It can withstand repeated high-intensity impacts without developing fatigue cracks.]

[Comprehensive evaluation: This material simultaneously possesses a "Forbidden Magic Field" effect and excellent physical defensive performance. Applicable direction: Outer armor for Main Battle Golems, specialized machine bodies for anti-Mage combat.]

Allen reached out and picked up the silver-gray metal sample.

The moment he grabbed it, a peculiar sensation spread from his fingertips. He could clearly sense the free-floating Magic Power around his fingers rapidly dissipating like a receding tide the instant it touched the Silent Extinction Silver. The surrounding air became dry and pure, as if even the Magic Flow in the space had been forcibly smoothed out.

Pinching the piece of metal, he slowly turned it under the light, scrutinizing it carefully.

The birth of this thing was actually a beautiful accident. He initially only wanted to develop an outer armor resistant to Law Erosion for PX-4. The rejection property of Purgatory Demon Iron was the spear, and the reverse conduction of Nether River Sinking Silver was the shield. However, during the two thousand, seven hundred and thirteenth trial, he found an extremely tricky ratio.

The Nether River Sinking Silver was no longer merely "non-conductive to magic"; rather, it began to actively "drain" the surrounding Magic Power. Paired with the rewoven rejection lattice of the Purgatory Demon Iron, the two formed a resonance circuit that was exquisitely precise. Once external Magic Power stepped into this circuit, it would be ruthlessly absorbed, neutralized, and suppressed until not even the most basic Lighting Magic could be conjured.

Allen looked at the Silent Extinction Silver, its cold gleam reflecting in his deep blue eyes.

Forbidden magic.

In the Wizarding World, this was the rarest and most terrifying attribute to Casters. Usually, one could only experience this despair of being stripped of their casting abilities in certain extremely ancient, perilous lands, or when facing ancient monsters who specialized in Legendary Psychic Magic. In the market, there were absolutely no circulating forbidden magic materials.

And now, he could subject this Divine Level characteristic to Solidification, turning it into mass-producible armor plates on an assembly line.

Jarvis provided a comprehensive evaluation report right on time:

[The Magic Suppression effect of Silent Extinction Silver attenuates as the range expands, with the upper limit of its effective suppression radius being approximately five meters. Beyond this distance, the suppression rate will drop below 50%, which is insufficient to dismantle complete High-tier Sorcery configurations.]

[The Suppression mechanism of this material is based on Magic Activity interference at the physical level, heavily reducing its effectiveness against attacks containing the Power of Laws. A Morning Star Wizard’s Law attacks can partially ignore this Suppression field.]

[Therefore, Silent Extinction Silver is not omnipotent. It is a highly effective defensive material, specifically targeting Casters and conventional witchcraft attacks below the level of Laws.]

"Below the level of Laws," Allen repeated those words.

Below the level of Laws—this meant that the vast majority of Second-level Wizards would be completely helpless against it.

A Golem entirely covered in Silent Extinction Silver Armor meant that within a five-meter radius, it was the absolute bane of Wizards who specialized in energy-based witchcraft. Flames would automatically extinguish when thrown at it, and clusters of Magic Power would instantly dissipate upon getting close. Want to break its defense? One could only rely on purely physical basic attacks.

And what kind of Golem was PX-4 "Xiong Da"?

It was an ultimate machine of physical violence—eighty-six meters tall, weighing fifty thousand tons, and equipped with an Antimatter Annihilation Main Cannon!

To take such a steel Titan, which was already adept at smashing people into meat paste, and dress it in a layer of "forbidden magic" heavy armor...

Allen placed the Silent Extinction Silver back on the experimental table and elegantly straightened his cuffs.

Before this Giant Beast, any Caster who hadn’t mastered the Laws would be left with only two choices.

Either burn a Blink spell to escape, or bare their necks for slaughter.
