"Because I could see your dreamy face at first?" asked Catherine.

"That's a reason. I was in control of everything in my anchor world, including the Dream Side, and you were amazed to see me. Ice Bear Abyss paused and said, "But your inheritance is the real reason why I am optimistic about you." I'm thinking that it's because your heritage is extraordinary that you have the ability to see through the face of dreams. ”

Is it from the inheritance?In Catherine's heart, the so-called inheritance of herself was the will of fire stuffed into her mind, and as the second will of the Great Devil, it is not surprising that she knows the mysteries of the spirit world. But the Will of Fire didn't tell itself about the Dream Face, as well as the Anchor World, the Ultimate Domain, and so on. If you have the opportunity in the future, be sure to ask.

"Is it important to be able to see through the face of dreams?"

"It's important. The Ice Bear Abyss said with certainty, "If we can see through the dreamy side of this world, we will probably be able to go out directly." ”

"It's a pity I can't see through it. Catherine sighed, "See through the so-called dream face, that's it." After that, I saw that everything else was unchanged. ”

"I've told you everything I can tell you, if you have a heart. The Ice Bear Abyss is over.

The giant eyeball flew upwards under Catherine's command. This direction was chosen only because it seemed to be the safest. Slowly ascending the chain that transports the huge iron box, you will pass a variety of large and small iron-toothed discs and other strange machine parts. Watching them go on and on and off, making all kinds of noise, Catherine unconsciously felt sleepy.

Not only Catherine, but also the Ice Bear Abyss yawned, and even the giant eyeballs seemed to be dizzy and flew slower and slower.

There was a loud "boom", and Catherine woke up suddenly. She found herself sleeping on a large iron disk, with the Ice Bear Abyss lying not far away. Except for one side of the leakage, the other five sides are discs on the top, bottom, left, right, and back, which happen to form a room-like place.

The discs on all sides are rotating all the time, and when you sit closely, you will realize that these discs are engraved with special inscriptions. Unfortunately, the pattern of the inscription is so strange that it is unrecognizable with Catherine's knowledge. However, the female mage speculated that the inscriptions probably belonged to a special branch of alchemy, the robot golem.

The reference to the robot golem comes from the book "History of Alchemy" written by Griggs, the great alchemist of the kingdom. The book talks about the beginning of the rise of mankind, before the study of magic was vigorously developed by the three masters of the elements, and the research and application of alchemy far exceeded that of today. At that time, there were many branches of alchemy research, in addition to the research directions that still exist today, such as the creation of mimic magical lifeforms, the refining of puppets for war, and the study of various chemical and physical properties of various plants, animals, and minerals, as well as some special branches that are rarely talked about today, such as machine golems.

Catherine had thought of alchemy when she first saw these huge machines, but she was too shocked to think about them as machine puppets. Because "robot puppets", as the name suggests, are made of metal machinery to make puppet dolls, just like common petrified puppets or other war puppets, they are all biomorphic shapes, rather than huge machine parts.

But in fact, Master Griggs has made detailed research and description in his works, and believes that the research direction of the branch of robot puppets is to drive the free movement of metal through alchemy, and the statement of puppets is actually not accurate, and the so-called "robot puppets" are only the highest alchemical results in this branch. Until now, Catherine remembers the chapter "Robot Golem", where Master Griggs hand-drew an illustration of a metal spinning top that can spin on its own permanently. The power that drives the spinning of the top comes from the inscription engraved on the top.

After reading The History of Alchemy, Catherine asked Master Griggs why the alchemy branches of the major academies no longer studied machine golems and the inscriptions that drove metal. Master Griggs' answer was that the breakthrough in the research of magic circles had made it easier to use magical power directly. The study of metals and inscriptions itself lacks a complete theoretical system to support, and the process of inscription and seal engraving is extremely complex, so it is gradually eliminated.

If Catherine were to meet Master Griggs the next time, she would tell the master alchemist that someone had taken the study of robot golems to such an extent that a vast world of movement had been created with metal and inscriptions alone. I guess Master Griggs can't wait to come here to have a look.

It's a pity that this is an anchor world deep in the Ultimate Domain, and it's not easy to get here.

Catherine fell into a deep thought, and it took a moment to come back to her senses, and she noticed that the direction of her body had changed, and she had clearly been facing the leaky side just a moment ago, but now she had turned around. It turned out that the round iron disc under him was turning very slowly, and the whole space seemed to shrink a little.

This aroused Catherine's alarm. She stood up and walked to the only void to look out, a cliff-like wall of machines made up of iron-toothed discs snapping into each other. Looking up and down in both directions, there is no end in sight, and the small space where I am located is mostly in the middle of a certain end of this machine wall.

There was a dim light on the other side of the cliff, and you could faintly see huge buildings one after another, and the outer walls of the buildings seemed to be made up of machine walls.

"You shouldn't come out and look. ”

Catherine suddenly heard a raspy voice, like two rusty iron swords rubbing against each other. She followed the voice, and a black shadow stood in mid-air, with two large wings behind her, fluttering rhythmically. The sight of the figure made Catherine feel a little happy, but immediately her face became solemn. Because there was a huge eyeball hanging under that black shadow, wasn't it his bullseye-eyed demon instinct?

Catherine unconsciously reached for her chest, and she felt a broken chain.

The shadow flapped its wings and flew towards Catherine, and the mage couldn't help but retreat. The shadow was much larger than the entrance to the space on the machine wall, but as he got closer, the whole person made a "click" sound, and the size of the person shrank, and finally became about the same height as Catherine and walked in.

Catherine could hear each of the other being accompanied by the sound of metal clashing, like a pair of metal boots on her feet.

"Who are you?" Catherine asked. She saw that the ice bear abyss, which was still lying on the ground just now, had woken up at some point, and stood on the side of the black shadow, forming a flanking angle with Catherine.
