It is not entirely correct to say that it is a beast.

When this thing appeared, it was the size of a room, with sturdy legs and retractable straps between the toes. It looks like a one-horned rhinoceros, but it looks more flexible. Its skin is blue-gray with a slight glow, and if you look closely, you will see that there is no soft flesh, but it is filled with the hardness of a stone.

His eyes were calm and regular, he honestly poked them and did not move.

"Alchemist puppet?" Sumire was a little interested.

"It should be a half-puppet, to be exact."

The representative said with considerable pride that "it retains the brain and intelligence of primitive creatures, and has been modified to have a strong body." It can carry 15 tons of cargo, can provide rides, can pass easily, no matter how difficult the terrain is, and can do short dives. Although it is bulky, it is actually very light and does not make much noise. Can I show you?"

"Of course!"

As he spoke, several people walked out. The puppet's abdomen slapped with a bang, and a large opening was immediately opened, and there was a similar storage space in it, but the rhinoceros was painless.

He casually dropped a few stones weighing about 10 tons, jumped onto the back of the ox, and spat out a command: "Forward!"

Boom.

The rhinoceros moves on four legs and keeps slamming forward. It was loud at first, but gradually became softer after a while. Xiao Jin looked up and saw them walking down the steps, deliberately picking some jungle, thorns, and undulating terrain.

Sure enough, the speed is not amazing, but it is definitely not slow. Finally, the rhinoceros jumps into the lake and climbs ashore after a few minutes of diving. Rhinos are dry and not damp.

"What is its energy source?" Xiao Zi became more and more interested.

"It's this amazing stone. ”

The representative took out a fist-sized black stone from the rhinoceros and said, "With just one stone, it can be used for half a month, and there is no need to feed or drink water, and there is no fear of fatigue." "After mastering the method of domestication, a person needs to be accompanied for a long distance, and a person can reach a very short distance. But be careful not to use too many frequencies, as this will consume the golem's health and be easily damaged. “

Sumire holds the Philosopher's Stone and enters the divine vision.

It is called the Spirit Stone in the east and the Magic Stone in the west, and it is similar in nature, but this one is obviously refined and improved on the basis of the original, and can only be applied to puppet animals.

She understood in her heart and smiled, "It's really good." Let's take our time. ”

A few people returned to the hall and sat down again. She didn't speak, and she didn't speak. The atmosphere at the moment is strange. Xiao Jin held a cup of tea, took a sip, and her brain flew.

The rhinoceros is a practical puppet that is perfect for promotion among the crowd. Although the modern transportation industry has developed, there are still many dead ends, especially the change and integration of the environment, and the complex terrain is almost all over the country.

The other side emphasizes a point: the brains of the puppets are well preserved, have a certain intelligence and can be domesticated. After becoming proficient, long-distance transportation requires the company of important people, who can understand the road for a short distance on their own, carrying 15 tons up and down the mountain, as if walking on the ground.

It's terrible! It can greatly liberate the labor force and improve production efficiency.

There are many projects under construction in Phoenix Mountain. It really needs this thing, but Xiao Zi is always hesitant. It's like the early summer fruit industry, destitute and importing foreign products.

Things belong to others, the core technology belongs to others, and after-sales maintenance belongs to others, and we can't do anything but buy it.

And the most important Philosopher's Stone, which is the key. Once you buy a puppet, you have to buy a lot of magic stones, thus forming a trading habit.

More broadly, this is called economic dependence, and it is easy to be controlled by people.

At that time, she remembered what Lao Gu had said: Xia Guo emphasized self, consciousness, and enlightenment. Western spiritual practice attaches great importance to disciplines, logical experiments, and the thinking of modern people. It's easy to develop a product.

It's not like modern science. Scientific theories are common, and anyone who learns them can learn them. But practice is different. They had alchemy to develop puppets and apply basic means of transportation. What do we have?

Please.

The ancestors should know that if you use transportation technology to transport, you will be able to survive one by one!

Sumire didn't make a clear decision, and after a while, let the other two people show it.

They have similar things, all of which are applied and have the same properties. Behind them is a python-like trade chain trying to swallow you one by one.

In the end, Xiao Zi did not sign the big bill, and only bought a set of puppets and magic stones for half a year. Naturally, no currency is used for transactions. The other side took some special herbs and alienated animals.

When the three business groups left Baicheng and continued south, the next stop was Qianzhou.

......

Little Rock Sam State.

Little Rock is the capital of Arkansas. It was once inhabited by the Indians. It is rich in rivers and forests. After the disaster, like most Forest City, it was hit by animal tides, and order was not restored until recently.

At the airport, a car drove directly to the tarmac and waited for a while, welcoming a man and a woman. Women are Westerners, but men are Easterners.

They got on the bus and headed to the outskirts - Wen Gu and Andrea, naturally.

"We inherited the Gardner-Weyhan system, which focused on witchcraft. We don't have a core organization. We are very fragmented and exist as a wizarding community. ”

Along the way, the women were still passing on knowledge to each other, saying, "A group usually consists of 13 people, and the leader is a high-ranking wizard, a high-ranking witch, and a virgin." Oh, and this virgin isn't usually a real virgin, but certainly a woman.

The remaining members are made up of a group of one man and one woman. If the group has too many members, the group can create a new group with additional members. The new group is at least 8000 meters away from the old one. “

"Strange rules, are you so scattered that you really have a feeling of belonging to your sect?" Wen Gu was confused.

"No way, that's tradition. We don't believe in emotions, we only believe in equivalent exchange. This habit ensures peace at home, but it is difficult to organize effective resistance in the face of a strong foreign enemy. ”

Andrea sighed and said, "We have 72 wizarding groups in the United States and 65 in China. The enemy defeated them one by one, and only half of them remained. I belong to the Brotherhood of Roses and am the latest target of the enemy. I was assaulted several times and had to move to Little Rock. ”

"Brotherhood of the Roses?"

Wen Gu touched his nose, it sounded like gay. He asked, "How many members do you have?"

"Initially there were 19 people, and now there are 10 left, but the advanced capabilities of the group are all there. ”

Andrei was a little frustrated, then stopped, and couldn't help but say, "Sir, don't you really need to pretend when you go abroad with me? We didn't report to the Extraordinary Society, you look too obvious......"

"Nope. ”

Wen Gu spit out two words and didn't say more.

“......“

The woman opened her mouth, well, if you say no, you don't have to open your mouth.

Traffic is said to be heading towards a small town next to the highway, only to find it sparsely populated and rather depressed. There are still ruins and buildings on both sides that have not yet been cleared, and the smell of smoke emitted not long ago.

As the car was moving, when it came to a fork in the road, it suddenly heard a loud bang and a huge heavy truck rushed out from the right.

The red carriage was emblazoned with a black sign: first, a circle with a small circle inside. In the small circle is an inverted five-pointed star on which a ferocious goat's head appears.

"Oh!"

The driver watched as the truck crashed and slammed on the brakes. The tires rub against the ground. After a cacophony of sounds, two cars stopped at the intersection one after the other.

"Satan worship!"

Andrei shouted loudly when he heard the sign. Then, I saw several people jump out of the truck and surround the car.

"Hehe, I've finally found you!"

A chubby old white man smiled with a straight face, "Andrea, I heard you went to find someone to help." I want to see who is going to die on their own initiative. ”

"Tindo Barras!"

The woman got out of the car in shock and rage and said, "Aren't you in Sicily?"

"You say that little guy diverted my attention? I swallowed her belly a long time ago, and her flesh was tender and tender. ”

"You want to die!"

The man in their mouth is Andrea's best friend. The woman was even angrier when she heard the news. She rolled over, glittering with blood-red spikes.

Bang.

In an instant, a red mist poured out of the ground and enveloped the surroundings. Two red snakes emerged from the fog, like two red lightning bolts biting at each other.

"Kid, you can't ...... so hard"

Barra leaned against his cane and poked hard at the ground. The black air churned, as if blown by a strong wind, whistling and sucking the red snake into the red mist, blowing it away in an instant.

"I wanted to recruit you, but now I can only blame you for being stubborn. “

Barra didn't want to keep fighting. He promoted his staff a little bit. The head of the Ouroboros-shaped staff was covered with black mangs, which soon formed into a circular ball that fluctuated with terrifying dark energy.

"Die... Poof!"

As soon as the old man spat out a word, he heard a sonic boom. The ball is like a deflated ball. The match went out, went out.

"Who?

His face was distorted and hideous. He turned to the back seat of the car and said, "Die!"

He waved his staff again, but his hand was empty, and he didn't even have one.

"Who the hell are you?"

Barra panicked this time. Employees are his personal wealth. The other party can take it as they like.

“......“

The man in the car didn't respond, and only after a while did he say, "Killed?"

"We're immortal for a long time, and it's useless to capture it alive, please!" Andrea said maliciously.

"Oh......"

Boom.

When the sound falls gently within a radius of several tens of feet, the ground is suddenly surrounded by a force of pressure. The ground cracked, debris splattered, and visible air currents spread out layer by layer, as if in the center of a tornado.

"Poof!"

Bara's blood spurted wildly. He only felt an unseen, huge palm falling from the sky. From the kneecap to the calf, to the base of the ankle, every inch of bone and muscle was broken.

Others were even worse, directly decomposing into a mass of flesh, bleeding from 7 mouths, and dying instantly.

"You, you ......"

Bala's strength is good, and he still has a lot to say. He was scared, surprised, and unwilling. He's also a good player. He's dead now.

At this moment, I saw the window roll down, revealing oriental faces.

"You ......"

Barras's pupils contracted suddenly, and great fear and regret filled his body, followed by a plop, lifeless.
