Chapter 18 A Landscape That Only Belongs to the Shadow Level
It is an indisputable fact that the strength of the puppeteer itself is related to the puppet he owns.
So, no puppeteer will dare to joke with his own puppet.
Even if he is as strong as Chiyo's mother-in-law and the red sand scorpion in the middle and late stages of the original book, he will try his best to ensure the peak state of his puppet at any time.
In comparison, it is not difficult for us to find that Chiyo and Scorpion have greatly reduced their combat power after the reincarnation of the filthy earth, not only do they need the cooperation of many teammates to stabilize a battle line, but they will even fall into the role of assisting teammates from time to time.
This allows us to see how important a puppet is to a puppeteer.
In this case, Orisaki found out that the puppet of the senior who was held in his hand was abnormal.
This puppet is more than a little larger than a standard battle golem of the same model.
However, it is not difficult to accept that the puppet will be modified by the owner, in fact, this is the norm, almost every puppeteer will make acceptable changes to the standard puppet according to their own needs, in fact, there is no harm in this, only the puppet suitable for their own control is a really useful puppet.
But as mentioned in the previous paragraph, the so-called changes should be within acceptable limits.
So what about the acceptable range?
To be honest, it's not easy to introduce, but every puppeteer has a general range in mind, just like the teacher roughly knows how many points the student should float between as soon as he gets the paper, the host knows how many minutes it will take to read a manuscript, and the code word scans a paragraph to roughly know how many words it is. It's almost an occupational disease, but it doesn't put a lot of burden on your later life.
Straight to the point.
The size of this puppet seems to be a little difficult to accept in the eyes of Orisaki, who is a puppeteer.
Maybe that's the reason for the puppeteer's death?
The thought popped into the girl's mind.
This is not abrupt, and it is very likely to be true.
The size of the puppet is closely related to the degree of agility, usually a puppet of this size will be used as a defense, for example, Orisaki's own Sansho fish puppet, generally speaking, it will be used as a defense when the attacking puppet leaves the puppeteer himself, but in combination with the facts in his own hands at present, this puppet is not defensive, except for the armor is relatively thin, it is very special, and there are far more offensive parts than defensive parts.
Then that's very abnormal.
Out of professional acumen, the girl did not rush to continue to draw conclusions, but carefully dismantled part of the structure of the puppet.
Although it has been buried in the soil for many years, and finally eroded by the current, the puppet looks very tattered, but it does not mean that Orisaki has no choice.
Often the one who knows himself best is either his opponent or his peers.
The opponent, Orisaki, felt that she was incapable of being a person, but from the understanding of her peers, she only opened the puppet with a little effort.
Thank God for not directly letting this puppeteer die and at the same time soak the puppet in water and completely turn it into a pile of residues, giving himself a chance.
While successfully dismantling, the girl was surprised by the patchwork between the various parts inside and the splicing of the puppet outline.
Because it is different from the puppet I saw before, the puppet design in my hand is unusual, it is simply a shining wonder.
Not to mention the strange guidance device inside the torso, just looking at the hollow interior of the puppet limb and the strange concave device at the end, the girl showed a crying and laughing expression.
She really couldn't imagine how a golem powered by chakra lines could be modified to shoot chakra wires at golems that were almost all combat and defensive devices on the surface, and keep them strong enough to manipulate them······
Wait a minute!
Orisa's background suddenly turned dark at this time, and a bolt of lightning from the two-dimensional wind fell like a blow on the head.
She suddenly thought of the question that had popped up in her mind when she first came into contact with the puppet shortly after she came into this world.
Maybe I didn't have an intuitive feeling when I watched anime in my previous life, and I couldn't understand the difficulty of puppeteers manipulating puppets, but when I started it myself, I had quite real senses, not to mention the hands that were lifted for a long time when I first practiced and the fingers that became sour and numb when I only moved for a while, Orisaki didn't understand until now, how Chiyo's mother-in-law could control ten puppets with just one hand.
One finger to control a puppet, that is equivalent to using only one chakra line to manipulate a puppet, no matter how you look at it, this is almost impossible, because Orisaki has done countless experiments, a chakra line simply cannot bear the responsibility of controlling a puppet, in order to really make a puppet have mature combat effectiveness, it is necessary to use at least two chakra lines to do it.
It's like the battle between the ten Wei Chiyo mother-in-law and the Hundred Machine Scorpion Hall in the original book, if she hadn't known it in advance, the girl wouldn't even dare to think about it, and the puppeteer could really reach that level.
But now, the girl who got this puppet feels as if she has touched that mysterious realm.
It is true that it is impossible to control a puppet with just a chakra line, but now Orisaki has a bold guess, that is, once this chakra line is successfully connected to a special device on a puppet, it can smoothly reach the inside of the puppet and divide into countless forks like a large piece of ramen dough being cut into noodles, passing through the important parts of the puppet and against a small groove, so that the purpose of controlling a whole puppet with a chakra line can be successfully achieved!
Perhaps this is the secret of the Kinmatsu Ten Guards and the Hundred Machines.
But maybe that's not all, because the size of the puppets shown in the original book is very normal, and naturally it will not lead to a decrease in flexibility and speed, and this shows that their manufacturing process is at least beyond the reach of Orisaki now, in addition, even if the theoretical problem of controlling a puppet with a chakra line is solved, on the other hand, the difficulty of manipulating the puppet has increased countless times, because it is not only necessary to focus on each chakra line, but also to invest more finely on the end derived from each chakra line.
It's like if you could write with 10 pens with both hands at the same time, and the writing is good, the font is beautiful, and there are many kinds of style, but now you are required to use 10 pen sleeves, each with at least 10 refills, and you have to make sure that the writing is as good as before······
Hemp eggs are simply not human work!
At this time, Orisaki finally understood where the puppeteer's ethereal shadow-level shackles were.
Compared with other ninjas, the difference between the puppeteer's lower ninja and the upper ninja is very simple, and the number of puppets that can be controlled at the same time can be decided, but when God opens a door for you, it will naturally close a window, and Orisaki, who has almost reached the peak level of the puppeteer's upper ninja, has never been able to touch the threshold of the shadow level, even if she knows how to fight a higher-level puppeteer, she still can't figure out how she can do that.
Solemnly put the puppet into the big pit, and Orisaki gratefully made a grave for this senior.
Maybe he is not the strongest puppeteer, but he is definitely one of those unknown geniuses in the original book, who can covet the strongest mystery of the puppeteer only by his own strength, which shows that he is by no means an ordinary person, if he can really live until now, maybe Sha Yin will add another puppeteer to the Optimus Pillar of the puppet master world.
"Rest in peace."
The girl stood straight in front of the small tomb and bowed.
If it weren't for today's accident, I wouldn't have encountered the remains and puppets of my predecessors, and if I couldn't get these things, I might have been ignorant and couldn't touch the shadow-level barrier that belonged to the puppeteer.
Well now, life without goals is over, and the days that are about to begin will be······
Suddenly, behind him, there was a light tipping sound.
"Who?!"
Orisaki jerked back, and the puppet scroll unfolded.
