Chapter 798 797 If you want to create something new, you will always encounter this or that

Chapter 798 797. If you want to create something new, you will always encounter problems of one kind or another - New Year’s update [3030]

The conversation between Murphy and Professor Malcolm continued until the airship landed at the berth of Scarlet Castle.

At this time, Murphy was extremely grateful that he had appointed someone like Professor Malcolm as the ambassador of Transia. Only someone with experience and ability like the Professor could explain it clearly to Murphy in just a few dozen minutes of description.

Current situation on the Genoa Peninsula.

To put it simply, the biggest problem there is not the black plague of gnolls that may cross the Gorgon Pass at any time, because there is still a shield dwarf clan insisting on the Polut Pass closest to the Port of Chardo, and the gnolls are not that

Come easily.

But before the gnolls arrived, the halflings had already fallen into the panic caused by the possible war.

To put it simply, these short men frightened themselves. This was closely related to the fact that they had not encountered a war in the past thousand years. However, the professor also said that he suspected that this fear came so suddenly and broke out in clusters. Secretly, he must have

There are other forces taking advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble.

Murphy was not surprised by this.

This is Dusk's behavior. What they pursue is to destroy the world. Under this premise, all actions that are beneficial to this goal can be used.

Moreover, according to Murphy's observation, the various factions in Dusk achieve the same goal in different ways. Which faction is better at inciting public opinion?

However, this conjecture was immediately rejected by Countess Sycoma after Murphy met with Xiao Sharon.

"Of course it's not like that. The situation is not as complicated and dark as you think. On the way here, Uncle Glendower told me that all those instigations and rebellions were caused by an underground sect called the 'Spirit of the Machine'.

The ghost.

Professor Malcolm didn't understand much about this. He didn't see the shadow hidden under the surface of Port Chardeau, so he made a wrong judgment, but it can't be said to be completely wrong. After all, there was indeed someone behind this incident.

The forces that are adding fuel to the flames.”

We haven't seen each other for many days, and Xiao Sharon is still the standard height of a little potato, but her dress this time is more sophisticated than her previous mechanic style.

The windshield on his head was replaced by more complicated and bulky engineering goggles, and a multi-light-resolving mechanic's goggles hung around his neck.

She is wearing a mechanic's coat similar to a bomber jacket, and she wears straight overalls and work boots. She also made herself a pair of suspenders to match the plaid shirt she wore. She looks both capable and full of machinery.

The teacher’s hard work and sense of precision.

Especially the mechanic's leather bag on little Sharon's work belt and the engineering gauntlet she wears on her left hand, make every move of this little potato full of the cool and punk feel that an engineering master should have.

Fortunately, she didn't get any dark circles under her eyes, otherwise she would look like a mechanical girl.

When Murphy found little Sharon, she was directing a group of halfling technicians to move some complex and sophisticated machinery out of the cabin. This was when she was packing up her entire laboratory in Port Chardeau, which also represented Sharon.

"Returning to China after Studying".

She will definitely stay in Scarlet Castle from now on.

This can also be regarded as a sign that Countess Sicomaire is determined to return to her hometown and contribute to the war cause in her hometown.

"You have really grown up and are much calmer than before. You should really let that monkey Soju Femis see how you have grown now."

Murphy was pleased to see that little Sharon had become a real general. He took another look at the halflings not far away from Sharon who were peeping at him. The vampire lord keenly noticed that there was something on the clothes of these halflings.

They all have a special family crest, and Sharon's mechanic's coat also has a similar family crest.

He understood immediately, patted Sharon on the shoulder and said to her:

"These are Glendowers, right? Your relatives?"

"Yeah, they are members of my mother's side of the family. Several of the elders watched my mother grow up. They even attended my mother and father's wedding."

Sharon nodded vigorously and said:

"Lord, don't worry. I will use the Sikomel family's property to support my relatives and will not put any pressure on Transia's finances."

"Nonsense. Although I have never met Mr. Glendower, I also know that we were able to transport so many things back from Port Chardeau some time ago only because of Mr. Glendower's help. He is Tran

An old friend from West Asia.

Although we have lost power now due to an accident, Transia will never treat our friends badly."

Murphy reached out and flicked Little Sharon's forehead, and said seriously:

"I will ask Miriam to grant your uncle a title in recognition of his contribution to this war. There will be a retirement allowance to ensure Mr. Glendower's quality of life. As for the people from your mother's family, those who are talented can do so.

It is up to you to command and establish the Transians' own mechanical design bureau. Those members who want to pursue official careers can also be arranged in our administrative village.

The premise is that they must voluntarily participate in the administrative ability assessment organized by the administrative office.

I also have good news to tell you. During your trip to Port Shardau, the little mummy Nefertari from the place of origin has awakened your parents, and they are now maintaining a certain level of sanity.

Help the Church of the Dead Moon reshape the undead ecology of Xiko City, where the Church of the Dead Moon will create a Holy Land of Death.

So if you want to see your parents, you can go there now."

"Wow, this is really great."

Xiao Sharon's eyes suddenly widened with joy, but she quickly calmed down and said:

"I have to do my duty first. After Uncle Glendower wakes up, I will take him there with the elders. Let me tell you about this 'Mechanical Spirit' church first. They are in Xia

Port Erdo is considered a hidden force.

In fact, we also have their members in Transia."

"Um?"

Murphy suddenly narrowed his eyes, but quickly said clearly:

"You mean Old Flywheel?"

"Yes, Mr. Leak Flywheel, the greatest halfling mechanic and scientific pioneer Professor Bach Gaslamp's favorite disciple. If he and his junior brother had not turned against each other because of his younger junior sister, he would have been Xia Xia by now.

He is the president of Erdo Artisan University."

Little Sharon explained to him while flying next to Murphy:

"As for the relationship between the Church of the Mechanical Spirit and Lao Feilun, it's irrelevant. My uncle told me all this. He was responsible for the case where Lao Feilun caused an accident that resulted in the death of innocent people and was deported. He also investigated the case.

After some time, there will be something about this underground church.

They showed up early.

Basically at the time when old Professor Bach developed the Psionic Difference Engine, the conflict between the Church of the Spirit of Machinery and the orthodox mechanics arose.

They are all very powerful mechanics, but they pursue a very strange philosophy.

The followers of the Spirit of Machinery believe that machinery is also a kind of faith. They also paranoidly claim that it is the only faith of halflings. They regard all mechanical mysteries as gifts from the 'God of Machinery', and make all manufacturing processes similar to faith rituals.

Likewise, strict rituals and prayers were also formulated.

In short, these are a group of guys who worship knowledge, but their way of worshiping knowledge is completely different from other truth seekers."

"Hmm, it sounds a bit like the Cult of Mechanicus."

Murphy asked with great interest:

"So, what is the purpose of the Mechanical Spirit Church secretly inciting the halflings to march and disrupt order?"

"It is to intimidate the steam lords and demand recognition of the existence of the mechanical spirit and grant them the same power as orthodox mechanics!"

Xiao Xuelun answered very accurately:

"Because in the era of old Professor Bach, these followers of the Mechanical Doctrine were labeled as heretics. They were forced to go underground but they never disbanded. Instead, they gained new power because of the continuous advancement of halfling steam technology.

I said, although they are all a group of believers, they are really proficient in the use and construction of machinery. Compared with orthodox mechanics who want to explore the principles behind mechanical movement, these guys only care about using and spreading machinery.

Purpose.

This makes them no match for orthodox mechanics at the theoretical level, but they can always use pragmatic methods to bring out the power of machinery better than orthodox mechanics.

Uncle Glendower told me that the Church of the Mechanical Spirit has been waiting for this opportunity for a long time.

If the Jackal Black Disaster really comes, the Steam Lords will most likely agree to the request of the Church of the Machinery Spirit to come to the fore, so you don’t have to worry about the shadow of dusk behind it. Lord Paying is forced to stay in Port Shardau

During that time, we had uprooted all the cultists in the city.

You haven't seen how terrifying the Lord was back then.

He goes out every night to hunt down some cultists to vent his frustrations. I’m sure that Port Chardeau is now the cleanest place on the entire continent. Well, in theory it should be like this!”

"But the birth of any church and faith will definitely have a source. A faith will not appear out of thin air, so I guess that the so-called God of Machine worshiped by the Machinery Spirit Church should refer to the person you met in Port Chardeau.

The ‘evil spirit’ that arrived?”

Murphy asked softly:

"The Lord told me that it is called 'Eden'?"

"Yes, that's it, but Eden should have never responded to the call of the Church of the Mechanical Spirit, otherwise they would not have lost power in Port Chardoux where mechanical power is so developed."

Sharon said with some embarrassment:

"Also, I took the initiative to look for it before, and then it got angry and seemed to disappear and stopped playing with me. It has not been around me for half a month.

I'm sorry, Mr. Murphy.

My immaturity has let you and the Lord down, I should obviously be more stable."

"It's nothing. It's not your fault. It's just part of a broken AI. No one can predict its action logic. Now that it's back, let's work hard."

Murphy comforted:

"You can set up your own laboratory, or go to Brother Zhongzhong to help. They have some very powerful new weapon designers who have turned many of the concepts you designed into reality."

"There's no rush. I'll go to see Mr. Old Feilun first. I was entrusted by someone to bring him a letter."

Xiao Sharon chuckled, winked and said:

"It's his junior brother Minx Steam Valve. He is the third party in the love scandal related to the old flywheel. He is the current president of Chardoux Artisan University and the honorary elder of the Machinists Guild. He is a very powerful machinist.

.

Mr. Murphy, the fourth-generation core orb in your hand was designed and developed by him.

He also said that if there is a chance in the future, he will definitely come to Transia to see it."

"Well, he does sound like a very powerful person."

Murphy nodded.

Now that he knew Old Feilun's other identity, he and Sharon went to Old Feilun's mechanical office, intending to ask Old Feilun about the Church of the Mechanical Spirit.

The instinct from the dog planner told him that this force would definitely be liked by players in the future.

It sounds silly to regard science and technology as faith and mysterious rituals. However, Omnisiah's lessons tell players that this kind of silly behavior can become very, very cool under certain circumstances!

Well, if Old Flywheel is very popular in the Church of the Mechanical Spirit, then Murphy must seize this thread and find a way to invite some Mechanical Spirit priests to come to Transia through Old Feilun's relationship.

If they are willing to preach here, Murphy can even personally participate in this matter and write a cool doctrine for them.

Ha, the Mechanicum is actually in Transia?

Wow, now mechanics and manufacturing players are going to be awesome!

Just a ceremony to consecrate all mechanical creations before the war is enough to make those senior hammer fans excited to climax.

But just as the two vampires, one large and one small, pushed open the old flywheel's workshop, a strange thing stood in front of them and immediately calmed Murphy and little Sharon, who had just returned from studying in Port Chardeau.

.

That's a steam walking machine.

But it is definitely not a walking machine in its normal form.

Because it has no crew cabin and also has many strange things installed inside the outer armor of the walker. Although Murphy doesn't know what those mysterious things are for, he can be sure that normal mechanical creations are absolutely

There will be no magic weapon similar to the spiritual flag.

When they came in, Old Feilun was chanting about installing a fish tank-shaped thing above the power core of the walking machine, with four black coil electrodes, which looked full of mystery.

"What are you doing?"

Murphy asked. The old flywheel was very irritable when he was working. He almost screamed at the wrench in his hand. The old halfling shouted:

"do not bother me!

I don’t know what went crazy for the little mummy in Xiko City, and insisted on connecting her undead structure experiment with my mechanical knowledge. I don’t know what went crazy, but I thought this idea was quite good, and then I thought about it.

Jumped into this damn pit.

The steel of the walker is difficult to conduct psychic energy, so I had to use psychic alloy to make the inner frame.

But the pure spirit body cannot be put into this steel creation. I have to use wet parts as the spirit body carrier first, and then find a way to control the computing orb through current conduction, and then control the entire walking machine.

This meant that I needed to re-write a set of manipulators for this strange creation from scratch.

Oh my god!

I'm going crazy. This is not a project I can complete alone.

Curse that damned whim!"

This guy was roaring like crazy, making Murphy, a vampire who didn't understand mechanical principles, feel the pressure caused by that annoying technical problem.

He shrugged and was not going to discuss this issue with the old flywheel, but the genius idea of ​​using a spirit body to control a walking machine was definitely not something that the little mummy could have come up with. This classic reproduction of the divine dragon knight definitely came from someone

Players' imaginations are wide open.

"Come on."

Murphy said lightly, then took the letter in Xiao Sharon's hand, waved to the old flywheel, and said:

"Your love rival has written a letter, and the Church of the Machinery Spirit is causing trouble in Port Chardeau. I heard that you were once a member of them?"

"That was a long time ago. That organization was stupid and being there would only damage my intelligence."

The old flywheel put the wetware in his hand into the predetermined position with disdain, and turned on the power without looking at the letter.

The blue electric current was transmitted along the cable into this special walking machine, instantly burning several electrodes and causing sparks to fly, but it was unable to make this behemoth move even once.

"Fuck! I knew this thing wouldn't work!"

The grumpy old mechanic cursed, threw his wrench aside, jumped down and grabbed the letter from Murphy, glanced at Murphy again, and said:

"Follow me. Since I mentioned those idiots who worship machines, I have something to tell you. Little vampire over there, don't touch this thing casually. I will write a report on the failure of the experiment later.

On the other side of Xiko City, let them die of their evil intentions.

Undead colossi and war machines?

Pooh!

These are two completely incompatible fields!"
