After Nick was turned into the Tin Man, he still refused to succumb to the evil will of the old witch. In order to protect his lover from harm, he used up his remaining sanity and chopped off his own head with an ax, causing his headless body to shut down.
state.
Just like this, many years later, Nick still stood quietly at the place where he lost his head, with flowers and grass growing under his feet and vines crawling down his legs all over his body.
The tree spirit Enya lost her lover, but she did not give up hope. She has been staying by Nick's side all these years, taking care of this silent tin man like a sculpture, driving away the birds trying to build nests on him, hoping that miracles will happen in the future.
One day, your lover will be able to come back to life.
After so many years, just when she was almost in despair, she finally waited for her savior.
"Kind Miss Mage, please help me!" The tree spirit begged with tears in her eyes.
At the same time, Ma Yun received the main task issued by the system: to help Enya awaken her lover.
"Enya, take me to Nick first. If I can help, I won't refuse."
“Thank you so much!”
The tree spirit cried with joy and quickly turned around to lead the way.
Gao Fei, Jiang Feng, Ma Yun and Scarecrow Vita followed him through a bush and saw a statue shining in the moonlight from a distance.
Taking a closer look, it turned out to be a structure without a head. It looked a lot like activated armor, but it had lost power. The steel shell was rusty, and it was holding a sharp battle ax in its hand.
Opposite the headless tin man, there is a tree stump two feet high.
Ma Yun climbed onto the tree stump, tore off the vines on the Tin Woodman's body, stood up on her toes, and peered into the inside of the Tin Woodman's broken neck, discovering that there was a black cavity inside his body.
She casually used the "Dancing Light Technique" and remotely controlled a ball of light to drill down the Tin Woodman's neck, illuminating the cavity inside the body. She found that the inner wall of the metal was engraved with complex magic runes, which were the same as what she had seen from the activated armor before.
The analyzed construction process is similar.
Ma Yun nodded thoughtfully, stood on the tree stump and asked the tree spirit: "Enya, in order for Nick to move, he must reattach his head to his neck. Do you have the head that was chopped off by the axe?"
Didn’t you keep it properly?”
"This..." Enya looked frustrated, "Nick's head is not with me. It was snatched away by the old witch Evanora many years ago."
"What can we do..." Jiang Feng frowned, "With Xiaoyun's current spell-casting ability, I'm afraid I won't be able to create the same head."
"It's not difficult to cast the same metal head. The difficulty lies in enchanting the head so that it coordinates with the construction circle inside the Tin Man. Otherwise, it's useless to install it. It's just a decoration." Gao Fei also felt.
This matter is tricky.
Ma Yun scratched her head, suddenly her eyes lit up and she laughed.
"I've got a great idea!"
Under the curious gazes of Gao Fei and Jiang Feng, she opened the storage space built into the astrolabe and took out a shiny silver metal helmet.
"This is... the helmet of activated armor?" Gao Fei asked.
"That's right! Do you remember the living armor in the old witch's castle, right? If I guess correctly, the helmet of the living armor was probably modified by Evanora with the snatched Nick's head, otherwise it would be impossible to explain the carvings on the inner wall of the helmet.
Why do the runes exactly match the runes on Nick’s body!”
"With the evil nature of the old witch, it is really possible for her to do such a thing! Xiaoyun, quickly put the helmet on Nick and see if you can wake him up!" Jiang Feng urged.
Ma Yun nodded, held the helmet in both hands, and placed it squarely on Nick's neck. The size was just right.
She then used the "Repair Technique" to use magic power as solder to tightly weld the helmet to Nick's broken neck, making it one seamless piece.
Just after the assembly was completed, a silver halo appeared on the Tin Man's body, indicating that the construction circuit in the body had been successfully restarted and was absorbing free magic power from the surrounding environment and converting it into energy for its own activities.
"Wow! This trick is really effective! Xiaoyun, you are so smart!" Jiang Feng clapped his hands in admiration.
Enya, the tree spirit, was so excited that tears filled her eyes when she saw that her lover was expected to wake up.
Ma Yun smiled and waved her hands, indicating that trivial matters were of no consequence.
She also noticed that there were several parts of Nick's body that were particularly severely corroded. The steel plates had cracked and had holes, and the magic power in his body leaked out of them.
"Well... I have to find a way to repair these holes."
Ma Yun rummaged around in the astrolabe storage space for a while, took out a large piece of shiny steel plate, turned to Jiang Feng and said:
"Sister Feng, you are strong and have a sharp sword. Help me cut this steel plate into pieces with a side length of about 5 centimeters. I will use them as patches later and slap them on the Tin Man."
"OK!"
Jiang Feng unsheathed his sword, slashed at the steel plate, and cut the approximately 5 mm thick steel plate into the size Ma Yun needed with a few brush strokes.
"Rich Man, did you remove this steel plate from the activated armor?" Gao Fei asked.
"That's right! Using the Artifact Master's professional ability of 'Scrap Recycling', I can dismantle any scrapped machinery or structures into parts, select the intact materials and store them. Wouldn't they come in handy now?"
Ma Yun wiped the sweat from her forehead, her face flushed with excitement.
"Brother Fei! Let me tell you, this steel plate is a good thing! The surface has been enchanted, like being coated with an anti-rust film. It will not rust despite being exposed to the sun and rain. It is simply stainless steel from a fantasy world!"
"Oh! I really like the profession of mechanician so much! I even regret it a little. If I had chosen to study mechanical engineering, would it have been better than studying medicine?"
"Silly boy, please don't think like that!"
Gao Fei quickly dissuaded Ma Yun.
"Games are games, and life is life. The two cannot be confused! As someone who has been there, Fei Ge has to tell you the truth. The mechanical major is very hard, and it is only so much better than the material major like us.
How can I compare with a noble medical student!"
"What's more, you majored in dentistry. Even within the medical department, in terms of salary and social status, dentists are at the top of the pyramid. Don't think about it and do that stupid thing of losing the watermelon and picking up the sesame seeds!
"
"Don't be angry, I just said it casually."
Ma Yun shrugged angrily and spread her hands, took the small piece of steel handed over by Jiang Feng, and used the "repair technique" to patch the Tin Man.
After some repairs, Ma Yun quickly patched up the leaky parts of the Tin Woodman's body. The old and new steel materials showed different colors and textures, making the body brown and white, which looked a bit funny.
Not long after, the Tin Man was fully charged. Through the visor grille, you could see two groups of silver light slowly lighting up inside the helmet, as if he had woken up from sleep and opened his eyes.
