Limited Free Chapter 0317 Puppet Life

He took the wooden box and pushed it gently, opening a hidden compartment below. Tianlai novels www. 』⒉

Inside, a black stone lay quietly there.

Greem picked it up with his fingers, held it in front of his eyes and watched silently. On his retina, through the powerful visual scanning ability of the chip, the black stone that was originally only the size of a fingertip was continuously enlarged and enlarged...

The first thing that caught his eye was the strange grooves and patterns that were as fine as mosquitoes and flies. They were entwined and nested into each other, connected together with complicated and abnormal rune lines, and together they formed small rune arrays. Once the magic elements floating in the air touch the black stone, they will slowly blend into it, occasionally lighting up one or two adjacent talisman formations.

To be able to see this, Greem relied on the powerful ability of the chip to amplify the visual image a hundred times. Without the aid of the chip, Greem would only see the black stone shining slightly with stars, and it would be impossible to understand its basic operating mechanism so intuitively.

Puppet Stone is an exclusive material that is prohibited from being sold to the outside world by the Silver Alliance. It can be used to temporarily activate some puppet structures. It is also the most frequently used consumable by arcane wizards!

The puppet stone in front of me is only the size of a fingertip and can only be used to activate some small puppet structures. If you want to activate large and medium-sized puppet structures like the Metal War Puppet, you can only rely on the Puppet Heart.

Greem would not have been able to obtain this special controlled item if he had not visited the wizard tower of an alliance councilor.

"Chip, remember to take notes!" Greem ordered calmly.

"Hey, the 5th experiment file of Puppet Stone has been created... Now start dynamic data capture..."

Greem crushed the puppet stone without hesitation.

Almost instantly, a large amount of white smoke dispersed from the Puppet Stone.

These white smokes seemed to have intelligence. They did not scatter in all directions, but gathered together and circled in the air. Immediately, they discovered the existence of the wooden puppet, then suddenly spun in the air and suddenly penetrated into the wooden puppet's body.

The next second, the wooden puppet suddenly sat up on the stone platform like a life suddenly resurrected, and began to cough violently.

At the same time, Greem's various talisman arrays that had been smeared on the wooden puppet's body with invisible materials began to light up one after another, and emerged on the yellow-brown wooden surface of the wooden puppet.

Most are lit.

Of course, there are some exceptions!

The cracks on the right leg of the wooden puppet obviously destroyed the integrity of the talisman array there. With a soft crackling sound, black smoke came out of the cracks.

The activated wooden puppet climbed up from the stone platform with difficulty.

It can be seen that the severely damaged right leg makes its movements clumsy and slow.

I have to say that Greem’s craftsmanship in making wooden puppets is really bad!

Whether it's the wooden puppet's wire palms, the wooden frame-covered wings, or the body fixed with iron nails, it's just like a handmade product pieced together by an immature child. It's so rough and crude that it's impossible to look directly at it. .

But under the activation of this strange white smoke, everything seems to have been optimized!

The wooden puppet stood up with difficulty. While moving its creaking wrists, neck and shoulders, he pressed his chest with one hand and saluted respectfully: "Nice to see you, my master! The wooden puppet Billy reports to you!" "

This is a childish voice with a hint of childishness.

Although it was not the first time that he saw a pile of "garbage" consisting of wood, nails, wires, coils and pieces of cloth resurrected in front of him, and possessing rudimentary wisdom that was not inferior to that of ordinary humans, Greem's heart was still filled with misunderstandings. The weird feeling of being confused and absurd.

This is really a strange world!

"Report your physical condition!" Greem gave the first instruction to the resurrected wooden puppet Billy.

"Uh..." Billy began to try to move various parts of his body, and even flapped the 'wings' on his back twice to verify that they were still intact.

"I'm telling you, Master, this body is really in bad shape."

"There seems to be something wrong with my heart, which makes me a little breathless." The wooden puppet lightly hammered his chest with his 'iron hand', breathing hard.

Greem's eyes focused on the chest of the wooden puppet, and through the finger-thick wooden shell, he could clearly see a magic crystal embedded in the talisman array. At this moment, the rune array has begun to operate crazily, continuously extracting basic magic power from the magic crystal and introducing it into the rune circuits.

It's just that the connection between the talisman arrays seems a bit unsmooth. Some talisman arrays are lit up, and some talisman arrays are still dim. This causes the wooden puppet's movements to always have some uncoordinated lags.

"Hey, the energy control center has been scanned! There are 37 fault points in total, including 3 technical faults, 33 faults caused by poor production technology, and 1 fault caused by material deterioration... Final assessment: energy utilization rate is 24.18%... …”

"If the manufacturing process is improved, how much more energy efficiency will be improved?"

"After eliminating all material and process failures, the energy utilization rate is expected to reach 57.33%..."

"Why is it still so low? The energy utilization rate is only less than half!" Greem asked doubtfully.

"The materials are of low quality and the energy overflow is serious. If you want to continue to improve the energy utilization rate, the recommended materials for making wooden puppets are as follows: tree man core, magic iron alloy, magic mithril..."

Damn, you get what you pay for!

Everyone knows this.

But wasting these precious resources on a wooden puppet for training is such a waste!

Grimm directly rejected the chip's prompt in his mind.

"Fly up and let me see!" Grimm ordered.

The wooden puppet Billy immediately stood up, and the ugly pair of "wings" behind him began to flap rapidly. A gust of cool wind blew, and the wooden puppet began to float slowly.

In Grimm's elemental vision, the fluorescent brightness emitted by the energy center under the chest shell of the wooden puppet immediately climbed three levels. Some rune arrays with conflicting energy lines immediately burst into dazzling fluorescence.

"Billy, stop flying immediately!" Grimm saw that it was not good and hurriedly ordered.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

With a slight explosion, thick black smoke immediately came out of the body of the wooden puppet Billy, and the chest shell was also blown out with fine cracks.

"Ah... I... can't... anymore... I'm... going to... die!"

After a sharp and noisy scream, the body of the wooden puppet that had just floated to the height of Grimm's head suddenly stiffened and twisted, and then fell down crookedly.

Grimm reached out to catch it.

The wooden puppet, whose entire body had been twisted and exploded, coughed violently a few times, and then stopped moving. Then, the strange white smoke overflowed from the wooden puppet's body and slowly drifted in the air.

Wooden puppet Billy really died!

A puppet life with primary intelligence was born in less than 126 seconds and came to the end of its life!

The main reason for its death was the shoddy workmanship of this wooden puppet body. If, I mean if, Grimm was a little more careful when making this wooden puppet, maybe he could get a wooden puppet Billy forever.

However, such a wooden puppet with a simple body has no combat power, no special abilities, and needs to replace the magic crystal in its body from time to time. To be honest, there is no use for such low-level puppet creatures!

Grimm is not a child who needs company while holding a doll. Even if such a fake puppet life dies, it will not cause any ripples in his heart!

Before the white smoke dissipated, Grimm took the opportunity to collect a part of it.

So far, he has fully mastered the basic knowledge of puppet creature manufacturing. The only thing that has not been figured out yet is the operating principle of these puppet stones and the composition of white smoke.

How do they invade the inside of the puppet structure? How do they control the rune array system? More importantly, where does their primary wisdom come from?

This... is actually the core problem that Grimm wants to figure out after repeated experiments!

Grimm, who has already had a preliminary contact with the plane war, knows very well that the essence of the plane war is invasion and plunder!

What is the purpose of the wizards trying so hard to find the coordinates of one plane world after another in the depths of the vast sea of ​​stars? Go there to say hello to the local natives, sit down to drink coffee and chat, and then talk about life ideals?

Only the weak would have such childish and idealistic fantasies!

What attracts wizards to travel across the vast sea of ​​stars, risk being suppressed by the plane consciousness, and endure the desperate siege of the local natives, is not for the rich resources and massive slaves in each material plane that make people excited!

Once a plane is conquered, the resources and population in this plane can be taken at will.

If such wealth and resources are concentrated in the hands of a wizard, they can quickly grow and develop. There is no need to travel thousands of miles to find a little bit of resources, nor to explore dangerous and terrible ancient ruins in order to earn magic crystals to buy materials.

Seriously speaking, nearly half of a wizard's life is probably spent on running around to collect knowledge and resources!

And to avoid this, you must have the basic strength to take a plane.

Individual strength is one kind!

And cluster strength is another kind!

With Grimm's current strength, if he wants to invade other material planes, he will just be sending himself to death!

Even in the material plane with the worst overall strength, there will be powerful individuals with strengths as high as level 3 or 4. Although their strength may not be comparable to that of the strong in the wizard world, it is still more than enough to crush a small level 1 wizard like Grimm.

So the goal Grimm set for himself is to strive to reach level 2.

Only by becoming level 2 can Grimm reach the minimum strength threshold for invading secondary planes!

And in order to assist the invasion, the most helpful thing for him is undoubtedly the puppet army and the magic puppet army. Only these loyal elemental creatures and puppet creatures will not have loyalty problems, and Grimm can use them with confidence and boldness.

So for a long time in the future, in addition to working hard to improve his own strength, Grimm must also try to strengthen the combat power and number of magic puppets and puppets.

As for Mary, Alice and Kirby, they are the "heroes" that Grimm tries hard to pull into his camp.

The vast plane world cannot be conquered by one person with bare hands. If necessary, Grimm really needs to find some good helpers for himself! chapter;
