Takumi returned to Dimension City and immediately began to check the results of this cooperation.
First, the information on the power of faith.
"Sure enough, the power of faith is very different in different worlds."
After reading some of the information on the power of faith in the Konosuba world, Takumi discovered that there were many differences between it and the Type-Moon world.
Unlike the Type-Moon world, where the power of faith is basically acquired, in the Konosuba world, the power of faith can be condensed innately.
This made the technical systems of the two fundamentally different.
If the technology of the power of faith in the Type-Moon world was about creating something from scratch, then the technology in the Konosuba world mainly tended towards introducing new innovations to existing concepts.
One was to directly create the ideal thing you wanted in one step.
The other was to change an existing thing into the ideal appearance.
That is, the difference between production technology and maintenance technology; the paths of development could be said to be completely opposite.
Fortunately, the core of both technologies revolved around the power of faith, and they could not be separated from each other. No matter how big the difference was, it was not irrelevant, so Takumi quickly absorbed and digested it.
After learning this knowledge, Takumi commented, "Yes, this knowledge is very useful."
Originally, Takumi was a little worried about what to do if the power of faith he had gathered was not what he wanted.
But this transformation technology from the Konosuba world could solve this problem.
With it, Takumi could conduct more trials and errors with the power of faith without having to worry about the trouble of finding another religion in another world if one attempt failed.
Moreover, this would also be more convenient for later management.
For example, if he discovered the benefits of the power of faith in the future, he could add other gods to the Pantheon that worshipped him, so that his wives could also get a share of the pie.
Next were the artifacts.
Although it was only the initial stage of cooperation and the Heavenly Realm hadn't brought out all its assets, meaning the exchange, recycling, and strengthening businesses weren't operating at full capacity yet, this wave still allowed Takumi to obtain six artifacts.
This was a reward, not a guarantee for later (like damaged artifacts).
That is to say, the Heavenly Realm had opened a recycling business for thirty artifacts and a strengthening business for three artifacts with Takumi. It had to be said that the Heavenly Realm had a very deep foundation. It could even be said to be extremely rich. Just testing the waters brought out so many artifacts.
This also made Takumi feel more and more that the choice to establish a good relationship with the Heavenly Realm was very wise.
And... it's great to target wealthy clients!
The profits were already so big now, let alone in the later stages.
Once all the artifacts in the Heavenly Realm were brought out, new ones would have to be forged after the old ones broke, and the new artifacts would have to be exchanged for services, ultimately falling into his pocket.
This cooperation could be said to have provided Takumi with a steady source of artifacts, allowing him to continuously shear wool from the Heavenly Realm.
In fact, this could be considered the biggest business deal Takumi had negotiated with other worlds since he built Dimension City.
It's a bit of a tangent, but let's get back to the six artifacts themselves.
"Although the function is a bit inferior, in terms of strength alone, it is not much worse than the original version of the Universal Farming Tool (the predecessor of the Universal Tool)," Takumi commented after the inspection.
These artifacts paid to him as rewards may have been specially selected by the Heavenly Realm, and their functions were not very overpowering.
For example, one was a Divine Sword .
According to the Heavenly Realm's introduction, its function was to cut all things in two, and it was so sharp that it could cut almost anything.
But in fact, it was not that exaggerated. Its upper limit of power was only about the level of destroying a country; that is, it could cut the earth with its full strength, creating an abyss a few thousand kilometers long with a single slash.
Another example was a staff. Its function was simpler: power amplification. It was said that it could increase the power of all spells.
But the upper limit was also only at the country-destroying level. Once it reached this level, it could not amplify further.
Another example was a set of secondary armor, which had more diverse functions, including absolute defense and divine healing capabilities.
It was said that in addition to its own defense, as long as it was worn, even if parts not covered by the armor were attacked, it could offset 99% of all damage, and it had the ability to passively heal injuries. However, there was still an upper limit. The upper limit of the damage reduction ability was not even at the country-destroying level. The Divine Sword mentioned earlier could completely break through its defense at full strength, and the excess damage could not be offset.
Not to mention the healing ability. This function was probably just an added bonus, with a lower upper limit. The healing speed was not that fast, and fatal injuries to vital parts would still result in death.
"However, it is not an exaggeration to say that the description from the Heavenly Realm isn't false. After all, these artifacts were originally only brought to the lower realm for reincarnated people."
"If these things were placed in the lower realm of the Konosuba world, wouldn't they be almost invincible artifacts?"
Thinking about the strength levels in the lower realm of the Konosuba world, one could understand why these artifacts received such high praise. It wasn't that the gods in the Heavenly Realm were deliberately exaggerating. What they said was the truth relative to that context. These artifacts were indeed worthy of praise in the Konosuba world.
It was just that Takumi's standards were too high, and the average strength of Dimension City was stronger than that of the Konosuba world, so he felt that the introductory content was inconsistent with his reality.
"But even this is enough. After adding the strengthening effect, these things are sufficient for Riveria, Kanae, and Esdeath."
The above assessment was just based on the original state of the six artifacts, but after being strengthened by the King's Treasure, the situation was different.
These six artifacts, plus the returned ones, meant so many new artifacts had been included, greatly improving the enhanced BUFF of the King's Treasure.
After the BUFF was applied to the six artifacts, their strength also improved to an epic level.
The ability of the Divine Sword was directly upgraded to the planet-destroying level, and its full power was enough to cut through a planet with one strike.
The upper limit of the amplification staff was also greatly increased, and its power could now amplify magic enough to scour the surface of a planet.
The Divine Armor's ability to offset damage increased to 95%, and the upper limit exceeded the country-destroying level. The speed of the healing effect was greatly increased, and even fatal injuries could be healed.
It had to be said that at this level, even with Takumi's high standards, he was quite satisfied.
But although he was satisfied, he would not use them himself because he already had the Universal Tools and basically didn't need these things.
At the same time, he didn't have a hoarding habit like a certain Golden King (Gilgamesh). He only collected good things and didn't let them gather dust.
Although Takumi also had a habit of collecting things, that was a habit of collecting food and other consumable materials, not a habit of hoarding treasures for the sake of it.
Takumi had always been very pragmatic when it came to items.
And Takumi had already thought about the disposal plan for these artifacts.
That is... assign them to his women and the girls under his command.
Well, mainly for his wives. They would be allocated first, and the rest would be given to his subordinates. He would try to make the best use of every artifact.
After all, he wanted these artifacts primarily to increase the foundation of Dimension City, and secondly, to enhance the BUFF of the King's Treasure.
Once included, they would just gather dust if left alone. Since they could be repaired if broken, there was no need to worry about wear and tear. In that case, why not take them out and use them, giving them to others if he didn't need them?
