In the repaired laboratory of the Truth Supervisory Society, Ivia was putting the last piece of "feather" that was clear and translucent like ice crystals on the cloak in front of her that was already covered with feathers.
"Phew, done!"
After letting out a breath, the girl happily lifted up the cloak, which didn't look too big. The whole thing was blue and emitted a slight light. The cloak was evenly covered with feathers, and she showed it to the person next to her, who was playing with the mechanical parts with the power of a chariot in front of the book. Wang Yu.
"Congratulations, another very useful magical masterpiece. With this thing, you can prevent being suddenly attacked or getting close. It is definitely an excellent piece of equipment for a mage."
Pushing the mechanical parts aside, Wang Yu clapped his hands and analyzed carefully.
The Frost Crow Feather Cloak is another item made from the materials of Valma's legendary lich body. Compared to the Ice Heart component of the mechanical branch of one of the alchemy schools, this cloak is closer to the work of the traditional alchemy school.
"Let's test its effect, Wang Yu, attack me."
Aviya put on the blue cloak, turned to face Wang Yu, and asked him to attack her to test the effect of this work.
"Okay, then I'm here."
Without any nonsense, Wang Yu walked up to Aviya and punched the girl's chest with his left hand fast and hard. The fist tore through the air and made a roar. The momentum was amazing.
But in fact, he still retained his strength. If the effect of the cloak unexpectedly failed to be triggered, his right hand, which was ready to attack, would directly smash his left fist away in time.
The left fist was about three centimeters away from the surface of Aviya's body, and when it was still two centimeters away from Wang Yu's emergency stop, the frost crow feather cloak on the girl's shoulders was suddenly activated.
All the ice-crystal-like feathers light up at the same moment, and the magic power connects the structure to form a magic circuit that activates the effect.
"Snapped!"
Wang Yu's fist swept across, and the sound that tore through the air completely exploded. However, it did not hit anything real. Wherever the fist swept, there were only blue crow feathers falling from the sky, and the extremely cold atmosphere lingered, and it was bone-chilling.
The girl's figure turned into a sky full of crow feathers the moment before the fist hit. The feathers remained in place, but the girl itself appeared five or six meters away.
The next moment, the second stage effect of the cloak was activated, and the magic power fluctuations on those seemingly harmless and beautiful feathers surged, and then immediately exploded, wrapping Wang Yu who was among the flying feathers.
A layer of solid ice crystals covered Wang Yu's body surface, sealing the joints, hindering movement, damaging the skin, and blocking the mouth and nose. This was the second effect of the Crow Feather Cloak.
"Kaka, kaka, hoo!"
Covered in ice crystals, Wang Yu looked like a humanoid ice sculpture, flexing his muscles and using brute force to tear apart the ice attached to the joints that affected his movement. Then, blood ignited by the magic fire was produced out of thin air, completely melting the ice on the body surface. .
"It's a very timely reaction trigger. I don't need to hold back. This magic device allows you to avoid this punch. The subsequent frost sealing triggered is enough to produce a strong hindering effect."
Wang Yu commented on this cloak. It was very effective. It first allowed the wearer to transform into a sky full of frost feathers to avoid fatal attacks, and then used the non-decorative frost feathers to trigger a powerful arctic explosion where the attacker was, giving him a surprise.
"Well, I'm very satisfied. Hey, Mr. Icarus is back."
Aviya smiled and nodded. She was very satisfied with the effect of the Frost Crow Feather Cloak. Although Wang Yu only paused and released the frost seal, he was actually frozen for a few moments.
Just such a window period allowed her to accomplish a lot of things. After all, it was a magical device made of the body of the legendary lich, and the cold power it unleashed was no joke.
As she said that, the girl let out a light sigh and took out her ID card. On it was a message from Icarus, saying that the other party was back.
Previously, Icarus went to look for those members of the society who were away on business, and notified those people to return as soon as possible to continue their research and fill the vacancy of Lancer, the core researcher.
"Wang Yu is here too. It's quite a headache. Those members of the society who went out have encountered some troubles. They are still dealing with it. I'm afraid they won't be able to return for a while."
"The progress of the research will be seriously hindered. Let's focus on attacking the information left by Lancer first. This should be the key to continue."
After knocking on the door, Icarus entered the research room and saw Wang Yu tinkering with machinery nearby. He was a little surprised. Wang Yu was usually not here at this time, but he didn't care. Instead, he told the recent truth with some helplessness. Status of the Board of Supervisors.
"As for the information left by Mr. Lancer, I have basically completed the analysis and supplementation. You can take a look. There should be no major problems."
Aviya spoke out, picked up a compiled document from the laboratory table, and handed it to Icarus, who was a little stunned by his words.
Obviously Icarus couldn't believe the news that the girl said that the analysis of the data left by Lancer had been basically completed. He went to find someone this time to continue other experiments while analyzing the data. The girl actually Can it be completed so quickly?
Icarus did not question it for no reason. He opened the file quickly and looked through the contents that Aviya and Sieg had compiled together. The more he looked at it, the deeper his surprise became. The analysis was in place and the perspective on the problem was very comprehensive. The analysis of the information left by Lancer was truly completed in a professional and unique way.
"how did you do it?"
Although he hadn't finished reading it, Icarus was already sure that what the girl said was true, so he asked without probing.
"secret."
The girl replied with a smile.
"Okay, but after all, it is an existence recognized by the elves and Aslan. I shouldn't be surprised by what you can do. Thank you for your contribution. In this case, the manpower of the Truth Supervision Society will be enough to carry out the work. Further research.”
Shaking his head, Icarus felt better. At this stage, a big trouble was solved by Aviya, which made him feel much more relaxed.
"Go to the conference room over there and wait for a while. I'll call the others over for a meeting to arrange tasks for the new phase. I believe we will succeed soon."
Icarus pointed to the conference room on the other side of the laboratory door. He was going to convene a meeting with other members, set all the tasks for the next stage, spoke to the girl, and went to inform other researchers.
Putting away the Crow Feather Cloak, Aviya helped Wang Yu check the mechanical parts he was making. After confirming that there were no problems, she went to the conference room and let Wang Yu continue to complete his independent production here.
"The effect is okay. The power core of a normal alchemy devil is this structure. There will be no problem in using it to power other alchemy machines."
Putting a piece of magic crystal into the power core component that he had made, Wang Yu, who was able to observe the internal conditions through the power of the chariot, was convinced that his work was completed when he saw the mechanical device successfully roaring and emitting light and heat.
During the time he came to Sky Mechanical City, he had been studying the mechanical branch of the alchemy school. This thing is different from basic alchemy. It doesn't require much talent. Wang Yu can learn these knowledge that are similar to the mechanical disciplines on earth. It is quite easy. of.
With the help of a large number of mechanical internal structure diagrams and practical operations, Wang Yu progressed very quickly. With the help of the power of the chariot, it didn't take him long to learn, and he was able to independently complete the most complex structure of the alchemy golem. , the production of energy core.
"Astartes?"
Wang Yu, who had just focused on the power core in front of him, suddenly frowned. He noticed some familiar fluctuations in the power of the chariot that was always unfolding, and finding traces of Astartes in such a place made him puzzled. and be alert.
"I'm sorry, I don't want to meet you in this way. According to the rules, I shouldn't hide the extension of my consciousness into the building during the restoration process, but I must find an opportunity to warn you, and I can't do it without The only person who is bound by the rules to complain to is you."
Astartes' voice came from above his head. In the ceiling, a small but complete alchemy machine was embedded in the ceiling.
Wang Yu was convinced that this thing had not existed before. He had seen it with the power of a chariot. In other words, this thing was stuffed in by Astartes when he assisted the Truth Supervision Society in rebuilding the laboratory in the Sky Mechanical City. Just to allow Astartes to extend himself and have a conversation with him.
"Warning, what do you want to say?"
Wang Yu asked. The power of the chariot was ready to crush that part to pieces at any time. Astartes' sudden intrusion into the laboratory reminded him of the strange situation before Lancer's death. It was hard to say that it was not similar to this moment, with the intervention of external forces. .
"As expected, you are still continuing that research. I hope you can stop this research. Of course, I know this is unlikely, but at least, please do not submit the results of this experiment to the central council."
Astartes spoke his warning in a serious tone.
"Terminate the research and do not submit it to the Central Council? Why, what is the reason?"
The content of Astartes' warning was somewhat inexplicable, but Wang Yu remembered the strange research suspension of the Seeker Society, and his sense of vigilance deepened.
"I am a machine soul, bound by rules. I can talk to you because you are a very special existence. My processing core cannot understand the composition of your soul, and determines that you are the same existence as an alchemy golem, so Only then can I have a normal conversation with you.”
"Last time I conveyed some taboo information to you, I exploited a loophole in the rules and made you the information storage unit of Sky Mechanical City by default instead of an intelligent individual. Only then can I inform you of that information."
"But this time, this higher level of confidentiality information, even if I use loopholes, I can't tell it."
Astarte's tone was very weak. It seemed that he could talk at will. In fact, this guy could only have a normal conversation with Wang Yu, and there were a lot of rules and regulations that restricted the content of his words.
"Don't let... the central council confirm that you are conducting this research. In addition to me, there are... people like me who can also borrow the eyes left in Sky Mechanical City... everywhere to observe the city... Every move.”
Astarte's words were a little stumbling, and they were very different from the fast speed he spoke before. Based on the rules he mentioned, Wang Yu guessed that this guy was experimenting with what he could and couldn't say, and picked what he could say and talked to him. That’s why it’s so stumbling.
"So, can you tell me the reason why the Central Council did this?"
Wang Yu asked a more detailed question.
"Wait a minute, give me some time to confirm and think, because I may have to violate the minimum rules for the next sentence, and then I will not be able to speak for a long time, but if you think carefully, that should be enough Got the answer.”
Astarte did not refuse or answer immediately, but asked Wang Yu to give him some time to think.
Wang Yu did not ask further questions, waiting silently for Astartes to think with its mechanical soul.
"Book."
After a long silence, Astarte only said one word briefly, and then fell into complete silence, and did not continue any dialogue with Wang Yu.
"Book?"
Wang Yu muttered to himself. Although it was in a questioning tone, he really knew what the Astartes were talking about. The book he was reading when the Astartes first met him was somewhat inexplicable. Book.
Taking the endless pages off his head, Wang Yu turned to the content he had copied and started reading. Because he was busy before, he really didn't bother to continue reading.
Astartes was "banned" after only saying one word, and one word could give him the answer. It seemed that Astartes had been preparing for this book from a long time ago.
