Who says knights can't backstab

Chapter 681 The Old Battle Doll Project

Lurea Institute.

This institute, which was built quickly after Cyril left Siliki, is the proud product of Siliki craftsmen.

After hearing the needs of Jean and Atsk, they completed the design drawings of the Research Institute and the Master Academy as quickly as possible, centering on the place where Lurella's beam of light occurred, and expanded a satellite city-like The area was named "New Lurea".

Of course, it’s a bit too exaggerated to declare it as a satellite city—even if the space for future college expansion has been reserved, the area of ​​this new Lurea city is too small, and it doesn’t even have the largest college in Salconan. large area.

But the technology used in this new Lurea city far exceeds that of the Xili basic body.

Carving runes from the foundation, and planning the entire city into a magic circle-this technique is not commonly used now, but it was the most common in the Lurea period.

Those towns that can be lifted into the sky through magical power sources at every turn are themselves a huge "product of alchemy".

The Lurea Control Center has brought many changes to Siliki's industrial system, and Cyril has only heard a little from Atsk now.All I know is that every brick in the entire satellite city is made through a special tempering process.

When the city was built, it had several extremely useful magic circles, such as "magic power gathering", "natural hair growth", and "rock firmness".

That is to say, Xilici himself has not opened up channels for academic exchanges with the outside world. If those mages really know what kind of thinking this city is designed with, I am afraid they would like to lie on the city wall and lick the city bricks.

However, Cyril didn't feel much about this. For him, this is not the process of the player's "building a resident".

Even though he has never dealt with a guild or participated in the process of resident construction, he has always played a lot of tower defense games-the use of these magic circles is essentially no different from tower defense games.

If the mages of Solkonan heard his violent words, it is estimated that each of them would have to become a melee mage, chasing him with a staff.

Such an enviable city lies quietly on the outskirts of Cyril.

And the Lurea technology unearthed by the Lurea Research Institute, the feedback given to Siliki is not limited to this.The moment he entered the city, Cyril felt a sharp contrast between a modern city and a city of the future.

There are wind farms in the streets to assist walking, and the figures of mages dragged their large mage robes, which were blown bulging by the wind, and advanced half-running and half-floating on the street.The plants that grow wildly are natural bridges, and the thick stems can directly send people to the upper floors of the third and fourth floors.

"The energy supply is all done through the magic power transformation circle, and Siliki's abundant natural magic power is enough to supply more than ten cities of this size with ease."

While walking briskly, Lydia did not forget to introduce her proud work to Cyril, "Facts have proved that it is undoubtedly the most correct choice to spend the first three months on conquering the magic transformation part of Lurea's technology. The technologies now being used in West Licky, large and small, are all based on this..."

Researchers always have some enthusiasm when they introduce their projects. Although Cyril is concerned about Nerola's healing method, all of this is led by Lydia, and she can only listen to her rambling.

Fortunately, Miss Mage read Cyril's anxiety, and interrupted her teacher aloud: "Mr. Lydia, the soul technology..."

"Oh, I almost forgot." Lydia said, and turned into a house that Cyril was very familiar with: this was the house that was originally built on the Lurea ruins. It became the core area of ​​Lurea Research Institute.

"This research was found in the remnants of the Shining Puppet Sect' Shirley'. It probably talks about how to endow the puppet with a real soul. The purpose was initially to replace the seriously injured warrior with a new body, and later Due to the limitation of resources, it has been modified into a special project of 'Battle Doll', which has been in the experiment, but it seems that it has not been successful..."

"Correction, Master Shirley's plan was successful, but the successful experimental samples were not included in the final general statistics."

The sudden voice from the side made Lydia stop. She looked suspiciously and found that it was Natasha beside Cyril who was speaking.

"Natasha, you..."

"As you can see, I am the only successful sample of this experimental plan, Lurea No. 13 battle doll."

Regardless of Lydia's astonishment, Natasha turned around and nodded to Cyril and said, "Master Adrian, just now, part of my memory about the past has been restored."

"Ms. Lydia's plan to treat Miss Sinai is part of the old battle doll's special plan to transfer the soul to the body of the battle doll."

Cyril rationalized the logic and asked tentatively: "So... Natasha, the consciousness you have is a soul that didn't belong to your body before?"

"No." Natasha denied Cyril's question: "That is the content of the old battle doll's special plan, which is a failed case. And I am a product based on the new battle doll plan."

"What do you mean..." Cyril became more and more confused as he listened.

"To put it simply, I, from body to soul, are all made by Master Shirley."

When Natasha said this, a somewhat proud smile appeared on her face:

"I am the first and only battle doll with life."

"No one's soul resides in my body. My consciousness comes from myself. This is the ultimate goal of the new battle doll project."

"Isn't the Battle Doll Project intended to replace disabled soldiers with another body? Your existence contradicts this."

"Because the human soul cannot effectively parasitize the puppet's body."

"The weak consciousness of the spiritual material self will resist the human soul. Since they are not from the same source, the body will regard the human soul as an intruder and continue to wear it down until it is completely destroyed."

"I see……"

Such content is not difficult to understand. After all, the materials that can be used as the body of the battle doll are obviously not bad street goods. Resisting the human soul fundamentally negates this plan.

Thinking of this, Cyril's expression darkened: "Since your plan has failed, is there any reference point?"

But the answer from Natasha is firm: "Yes."

"In the process of trying human soul transplantation, in order to cope with the wear and tear of the soul, Master Shirley specially prepared a set of soul strengthening methods."

While they were talking, they walked through the expanded spacious and bright passage, and walked into Lurea's authentic research room.

Today's Lurea ruins are no longer dilapidated as before. The equipment is neatly placed, and there are so many types that Cyril can only recognize less than one-tenth of them.

"By devouring some weak souls, one can strengthen one's own soul until it can withstand the migration of the soul."

"Although the plan itself was a failure, it does not hinder the part of strengthening the soul, which can solve Miss Sinai's problems."

Natasha was obviously familiar with the interior of the research room. She walked quickly through the doors, and finally stopped at the door of a corner room, pushed the door and entered.

Inside the door was a plain white bed.

When Cyril cast his eyes on the bed, the system's introductory subtitles popped up:

"[Soul Hotbed]: Lying on this bed, your soul will be sublimated.

Carved from a complete soul jade, it is the only priceless treasure in the world. "

"Specifically...how should I do it?"

"Lie on this bed, and then put the collected souls into the room, waiting for the winner to be determined. With the help of the hotbed, the soul of the winner will devour the souls of the weak."

"Then isn't this a cruel soul arena?"

"Yes, Master Adrian, so Master Shirley will release weak souls and slowly use them to feed the intended experimental subjects."

Cyril finally understood.

This seemingly beautiful battle doll project is actually a cruel process that consumes a lot of manpower and material resources.

The selected disabled soldiers still have to continue fighting, first undergoing the tempering of their souls, constantly devouring those weak souls through battles, and then blending into the body of the battle doll, and finally being worn out...

What a cruel plan.

"But here comes the problem." After Cyril understood all this again, he discovered the core problem.

"I don't have a soul that can be used to strengthen Nirola... How did you extract the soul in the era of Lurea?"

"...The structure of our era is not the same as it is today. Creatures will exist for a short time in the form of dead souls after death, and this time can be used to contain souls." Natasha shook her head: "Unfortunately, Adrian Benefactor, the current era of civilization does not have such conditions."

"So we have said so much, is it all fantasy?"

"Everything must be based on the soul that can be used to strengthen." Natasha replied firmly.

Cyril stood at the door and put his hand on his forehead.

soul.

As Natasha said, this era of civilization is different from theirs—Cyril has seen a magic plain that fits the biological structure she described, and fighting in such a plain is equivalent to killing the same monster Twice to completely kill it.

And when it is in the soul state, the degree of immunity to physical damage will be greatly increased. This type of magic plain ranks among the top three dungeons that players least want to explore.

But in the current era of their civilization, there is so little exploration of the soul, and they don't even have a clear division system for spiritual power.

The perverted spiritual power and soul power like Caroline may have a rank division in other civilization eras, but here, it can only be called "amazing talent".

Perhaps the necromancers are the best at manipulating the soul...but they can't extract a complete soul to play with, they can only gain a little soul power after killing the opponent through the characteristics of the undead itself.

Could it be that Caroline is going to make Sinai into a skeleton soldier and let her absorb the power of the soul from scratch?
This is obviously impossible.

Soul, soul, soul!

Cyril's mind was full of these words, like countless flies buzzing around his ears, making him dizzy from the noise...

He lowered his head, and with this movement, the pendants hanging around his neck drooped naturally, and the hourglass and the necklace made a crisp collision sound.

Then, a sharp voice came out:

"Damn it, when will you learn to be more honest, don't let me be bitten by that bastard all the time! It's so noisy!"

This voice drilled straight into Cyril's mind, making the sounds of the surrounding flies disappear all of a sudden.

gray god.

How could he have forgotten that he still has a ready-made soul——

The soul of the gray god.

Although this is the soul of the new god level, it obviously does not meet Natasha's requirements...

But, as long as he beats him weak enough, won't Nirola swallow him up?
Once this thought popped up, I couldn't stop it anymore.

"You guys, get out for a while." He turned around and said to the people behind him.

There was a look of astonishment in Miss Mage's eyes, but she turned around and left without any hesitation.Lydia was already asking about the details of Natasha's original experiment, and now she can't wait to find a laboratory to sit down and discuss in detail.

Only Nirola was left standing behind him, gently pulling his sleeve with one hand.

"Go out with them." Cyril said softly, "Believe me, you will recover soon."

After he finished speaking, he stretched out his hands towards the girl. Driven by a gentle wind, Nirola was blown up by the wind and landed lightly at the end of the corridor.

She watched helplessly as the figure of the young Marquis walked into the room, and then closed the door.

In the entire room, apart from that hotbed of souls, there is nothing else.From a certain point of view, its structure is indeed "very similar" to the Colosseum——

The entire space is a venue for soul fighting.

He glanced around, and then slowly lay down on the warm bed.In the cold touch, he suddenly felt that his body became light and light, as if he was about to rise up.

He immediately reached out to hold the hourglass on his chest and called out:
"Grey God, come out, let's make a deal."

As soon as he finished speaking, the gray mist covered his sight—the gray mist twisted quickly, and soon intertwined a human figure in the air, and at the moment of forming, he let out continuous laughter:
"Stinky boy, I didn't expect you to become more and more stupid as you live! You actually found a place where the soul can exert its power, and you want to discuss with me in such a space, are you crazy?"

"I just want to make a deal with you."

Cyril felt himself getting lighter and lighter, and finally kicked his body lightly, floating in mid-air, opposite Gray God.

He lowered his head and saw that his body was lying on the hotbed, motionless.

His soul was successfully separated from the body.

　Before opening this volume of important content, let's deal with some branch lines that cannot be handled according to the original plan.

　　It may look messy, and there is no state, sorry.
