The work began with a burst of cerulean glory, Mana buzzing with majesty!
|Project Update: [Living Existential Armor] - Osmont Specification.|
|Phase 1: Deconstruction and Purification.|
|Analysis: The existing framework contains trace elements designed to stabilize a Complexity/Purity matrix. These are now... redundant. And frankly, a little messy. Removing them now.|
Tendrils of blue mana, now sharp and precise as a scalpel, dove into the skeletal armor.
They moved with a speed and delicacy that was hypnotic, extracting and discarding microscopic components, severing conceptual links, and purifying the existing Omnichalcum frame until it was a pristine, unblemished vessel of pure potential.
It was ridiculously quick when one expanded Mana as if it were nothing! When one did not have to worry about their Everything of Mana!
HUUM!
|Phase 2: Infusion and Forging.|
|Objective: To infuse the purified framework with a dense, controlled concentration of activated Early Omnichalcum, following the schematics for a growth-type, symbiotic armor.|
|This is where the art happens.|
The floating blocks of liquid, stellar-white metal began to flow.
They were not poured or molded; they were woven. Guided by RUIN/EDEN’s perfect schematics, the tendrils of mana took the liquid Omnichalcum and began to thread it into the armor’s frame, not as a shell, but as a muscular system!
They built up layers of overlapping, articulated plates, each one designed to move and shift with a fluid, organic grace. The stark, brutalist angles of the Justiciar model were softened, refined, given a terrifying, elegant beauty.
The chest plate was forged, a magnificent, layered structure that seemed to echo the design of an Early Creature’s breast. The pauldrons were shaped, not as bulky, defensive blocks, but as elegant, wing-like structures that swept back from the shoulders.
The helmet materialized, a sleek, almost featureless design with a single, golden visor that seemed to hold the light of a thousand suns. It was not just armor; it was a piece of art, a sculpture of pure, white-gold power!
Elara watched, her breath caught in her throat. His actions, his control, his sheer, boundless endurance... it was a spectacle that defied her every understanding of what an Elderborn was, of what any being was capable of!
The moment the final piece, a single, golden accent on the gauntlet, was woven into place, a new phenomenon occurred.
The very existence of the laboratory trembled. It was not a physical shaking, but a deep, conceptual shudder, as if reality itself had just flinched.
HUUM!
An Existential Trembling!
It passed after a few seconds, but it left a heavy, suffocating weight in the air, the silent, awestruck recognition of a new, unique, and terrifyingly powerful artifact having been born.
Noah and Elara watched as the completed armor floated before them. It was a masterpiece of white and gold, its surface so pure it seemed to glow with its own inner light.
Intricate golden lines, echoing the design of the Modulator, pulsed with a slow, steady rhythm, like a sleeping heart. Its sheer, condensed immensity was a physical presence, a weight that made the air around it seem to bend.
Elara’s eyes shone. She floated forward, her hand reaching out to touch its pristine surface.
She frowned. "It’s packed with more Omnichalcum than most other models of Justiciars," she murmured, her scientific curiosity overriding her awe. "The density is... absurd. But... its Purity is so low. Is it defective?"
