Chapter 402 - Progress

It took less than a day to break the prisoners mind. With that Daedalus was able to use a mind reading technique. Using the technique first would have immediately fried the prisoners brain and destroyed the information so Daedalus had to torture them first.

Still having half the day left Daedalus picked through the prisoners mind and found a few smaller bits of information. As it turned out this man was actually from this continent, he was a spy for the female titan who had enough merits to begin work with the other continent.

Sadly he had little to no information about the other continent other than that there was an organisation that was thing to quietly take control of both continents. There also seemed to be only one race on the other continent however there where many variants.

With this information Daedalus knew that it was likely a better choice to stick out of that continent until he knew what race lived there. Otherwise he would stick out like a sore thumb.

Getting that far Daedalus realised that if the organisation didn't get word back from the scout within a week they would send a squad of soldiers to do the check instead. Although he may have wanted to get more information, first Daedalus had to get everything ready, so he sent the scout back after altering his memories and having him go and say that nothing had changed. This would hopefully stall he enemy response for another few weeks which would give Daedalus and Ultraun time to prepare.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

With that done Daedalus returned to Ultraun who was feeding materials into the forge. As he arrived Ultraun explained how he was going to be using the shield metal to create the skin. Daedalus of course liked the idea and reminded Ultraun to do the same for himself.

With that done Daedalus began work on a blueprint of the tunnel so that he could strategically place each trap. This wasn't very hard except that there was a rather large area where traps could cause too much damage, the area under the ocean.

Daedalus quickly realised that the entire area would become a no mans land should fighting start. So his only choice was to set up traps in areas he could fortify more easily. Luckily there where slopes and such so it made it easier for some simpler traps. One in particular was metal steps that would flip inward and turn into a massive hole, Daedalus mostly just made it for fun.

Soon another week had ended leaving only two more before the month was over. The Golem leader had been finished and Ultraun had given it a soul before naming it Jazz. This was mostly because Ultraun had given it too much knowledge of music and so he was a little bit musical.

Eventually Ultraun named him his second in command, mostly out of thinking Jazz was funny, and they began work on creating new golems. Daedalus for the most part worked on upgrading the superforge and making a smaller and more portable one for making the traps.
