Outside the fortress is a huge enclosed forge base.
Although the appearance of the thing in front of him had changed a little, Su Yan could still tell at a glance that it was a cannon, and he could even see several tank models next to it.
"Are these guys preparing to make modern weapons here?" Su Yan was shocked by his discovery. In his impression, in addition to seeing a few remaining Mauser rifles in the treasure room of the underground palace in Lianzhou City,
Outside, I have never seen modern weapons again, but I didn’t expect to see artillery and other weapons here.
Su Yan was very doubtful about the actual combat effectiveness of these things. After all, everyone in the game has too many powerful skills, and due to technical limitations, the power of these imitation equipment is lower than that in reality.
But what surprised Su Yan the most was seeing rows of steel puppets not far away, standing there quietly, like a mechanical army.
If he hadn't seen guards holding swords and many blacksmiths sweating profusely around him, Su Yan would have mistakenly thought he had returned to the real world.
He quietly approached the steel puppets in stealth. These things looked lifeless, and the insight spell could not be used on them. It seemed that before they were activated, they were somewhat similar to the black warriors refined by the dark wizards in the past.
"Could it be that there are a large number of high-level Yanshi in Wuzhong Tower?" Su Yan thought of the black-robed female Yanshi named Li Muling. However, with her strength, she can only control more than ten combat puppets at the same time, and the steel puppet in front of her
But there are hundreds of them!
At this moment, Su Yan suddenly saw the lazy young man he saw in the fortress walking over, and beside him there was an old man dressed as a Taoist priest.
However, judging from the old man's hunched body and deliberately walking half a body length behind, it was obvious that the old man's status was not as good as that of the young man.
"We spent hundreds of thousands of gold coins on you, and casting these steel puppets cost countless dollars. Now it's time for you to show your effect. I need these things to join the war immediately!" The young man walked to a steel puppet.
In front of him, he stretched out his hand and knocked on the black iron shell, and an extremely dull sound came out immediately. It was obvious that the puppet's armor was extremely thick.
"But this technology is not yet mature, and the failure rate is estimated to be very high if it is used by force." The old man frowned when he heard this.
"It doesn't matter. If the failure rate is high, just do it a few more times. We will provide enough souls." The young man smiled, and his smile looked bright and sunny.
The old man showed a hint of pain and said hesitantly: "But... this requires forcibly extracting the player's soul, and the player must have just died to extract the soul. That is too cruel..."
"You can say this to your ancestors, but I'm afraid what you will lose is your own soul. Anyway, all the steel puppets here must be activated within three days, otherwise you will have to wait for the punishment from above.
, you must know that in reality, your family members are also
We are still in the Fog Tower, and we have already let your family members enter this game. If you don't want them to be made into steel puppets, then you'd better do as I say." The young man's face was still expressionless.
His signature smile, but his voice was chilling.
"You said you would never harm my family...Okay, then you return the soul necklace to me first. The absorbed soul must use the soul necklace as a storage container, and then cast a spell to integrate it into this steel puppet."
The old man finally sighed feebly and nodded in agreement.
"The soul necklace is with me, you can start working right away." The lazy young man smiled and took out a necklace. He threw it to the old man, then waved his hand, and someone immediately brought a few people over.
.
Su Yan secretly used the insight technique on the old man, but the information he got made him speechless:
Occupation: Corpse Exorcist
Level:61
Basic character attributes:
Strength:1
Agility: 0
Intelligence:1
Constitution: 2
Lucky:1
Skills: Unknown
…
I originally thought that my current basic attributes were bad enough, but I didn't expect that there were people with lower basic attributes than myself.
With this old man's talent, the fact that he is valued by Wu Zhonglou is probably related to his profession as a corpse exorcist. He probably has some special skills.
Su Yan soon saw the old man using his skills, but before that, he saw the young man kill a player first, and then saw the old man holding the soul necklace in his hand, muttering something in his mouth, and could vaguely see that
The necklace flashed a faint light.
"Okay, this person's soul has been collected into this necklace, and I will merge him into the battle puppet. But the chance of success is only about one-third." The old man said nervously.
"Haha, one third is high enough. This time I have prepared five thousand people for you to extract souls." The young man smiled nonchalantly.
"What a sin...a sin..." The old man quickly lowered his head, with a look of fear on his face.
Su Yan was also horrified. The old man should have a skill similar to his [Soul Harvest] skill. He could also forcibly obtain other people's souls, but the difference was that he could only use the necklace to absorb the souls of others after death.
I remember that the black-robed female Yanshi started to cooperate with me after seeing Feng Yinxiao's independent soul. She wanted to extract her soul for her and merge it into the puppet to achieve an alternative.
Eternal life, but these people in front of them want to use similar methods to create an army of puppets for independent souls!
Many technologies are actually very good in themselves, but once they start to be used on a large scale, especially when used in war, they will become a disaster.
At this moment, the old man began to take the soul necklace tremblingly and began to integrate the soul into the steel puppet. However, when the light on the necklace flashed again, the steel puppet was still lifeless.
"Yes... I'm sorry, it failed this time..." The old man nervously wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his sleeves.
"It's okay, kill another one!" The young man waved his hand casually, and the person behind him immediately escorted another player over.
Su Yan couldn't help but feel an inexplicable anger in his heart. Although he had seen too many deaths in this death game world, and even killed many players himself, they were all killed in battle, and this young man in front of him
Instead, they killed the captured players like chickens and dogs, and then extracted their souls for the experiment of activating the steel puppet. This was a complete insult to human life.
But now he is powerless to prevent all this from happening. This is the base of Wu Zhong Tower. Once he shows up, he will probably be besieged by Wu Zhong Tower immediately.
