A dark passage leads to a long, narrow cabin. Below is a long bridge, flanked by towering gears and propeller shafts, and hanging chains.

Fang Yu judged that this was part of the wheelhouse—the rudder surface of the sailboat was made up of huge transverse wings and tail fins, and it required an equally complex transmission to control the wings, even with the use of magic technology, but also the mechanical transmission part.

The Seven Seas Traveler also has such a wheelhouse, and at the stern, the ship's wheelhouse is only larger, so it can fully accommodate such a secret room.

This design is very ingenious, and it is difficult for ordinary people to think of it.

However, in Fang Yu's opinion, this can only prevent his own people. The wind ship is only so big, if a foreign enemy invades, if you have the intention to find out some secrets from the ship, even if the ship is dismantled one by one, how much time can it take?

But when he went down to the bottom, he realized that he was naïve.

As he walked down the stairs, through the faint light of the illuminating crystal, Fang Yuan stumbled upon some strange textures on the ceiling. And when he looked closely, he realized that it was part of a huge alchemy circle.

It was an impact array, the same principle as the firing array on the magic guide gun, but I had never seen such a huge one.

He couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, this magic circle is very likely to be connected to the nine-star magic circle outside, if something accidentally happened to him before, or if someone touched the magic circle by mistake, I am afraid that the power of this magic circle is enough to blow up the back half of the ship and the people inside into the sky.

This is the wheelhouse.

Fang Yu was almost certain that the circle had been left behind by the ship's owner, who had gone so far as to blow up his own ship in order to protect the secrets—and even die with himself.

Frightened and a little curious, he withdrew his gaze and took out a short knife and slashed at the circle, cutting off its mana transmission.

This circle is extremely dangerous to invade from the outside, but once inside, it is easy to crack with a little understanding of the principle.

After Fang Yu did all this, he was relieved to let the others come down.

The long bridge below is not wide, and only allows two people to walk side by side. He and Ai Xiaoxiao led in front, and the others followed.

It was only after a few steps that Fang Yu stopped.

Ai Xiaoxiao, who was walking aside, looked at the things in front of her and let out a soft sound.

"There's that thing in front, in front." She turned around and stammered.

Fang Plover naturally saw the slender silhouette emerging from the darkness.

It was exactly the same as the previous structure, with arthropod-like torsos and pointed hats, but they hung their heads, their eyes did not glow red, their hands naturally drooped, and the eleventh type magic guide gun they held stood on the ground, and the magic guide furnace behind them was also dim and silent.

These structures are arranged opposite each other from front to back, standing on both sides of the long bridge, and there are a total of 10 of them.

"These constructs have not been activated," looking at these quiet constructs, a hint of surprise flashed in Fang Yu's heart. He was a little sorry when the previous structure fell under the cliff, but he didn't expect there to be so many of its kind in this dark room—and it was still unactivated.

Perhaps, this is the true legacy that the pirate leader left on top of the logbook.

However, he was still a little cautious, after all, he had never seen a similar construct using the magic furnace before, and perhaps it had some external energy source. Fang Yu slowly walked over, and at this time, the others also saw that these structures did not seem to be too threatening, and followed one by one.

Especially Ai Xiaoxiao, who was behind Fang Yuan, looked curious, and blinked his eyes.

Fang Yu had gradually entered the range of the long knife attack of the constructed body, and then he stopped, looked up and saw that the constructor still did not move, so he was a little relieved, took a step forward, and raised his hand.

He glanced at the structure again, and all ten of them hung their heads and didn't move.

Fang Yu was completely relieved at this time, gently put his hand on his chest, closed his eyes, and activated the resonance crystal in the control glove.

But the next moment, the result of the feedback surprised him:

Although it is infused with magic, the induction is empty. Neither can you connect to the other party's resonance crystal, nor can you sense the location of the other party's nuclear crystal.

Haven't these constructs been fitted with nuclei yet? A thought arose in Fang Yuan's heart.

He quickly opened his eyes and looked at the shield-shaped breastplate of the other party. The alchemists' work was mostly the same, and the structure looked like the work of an Imperial man, so Fang Yu reached behind the breastplate according to the habit of the Imperial craftsmen in his memory: there was indeed a bracket there.

He flicked his hand lightly, opened the buckle, and then reached back and pulled the breastplate down with a thud - in general, this is where the nucleus crystal is installed, and the resonance crystal will be not far from the nucleus. But what he really saw made Fang Yu stunned for a moment: there were dense pipelines, gear sets, and some unnamed devices inside, where was there any location of nuclear crystals and resonance crystals?

The nuclear crystal is not in the center? Doesn't it take into account the efficiency of the transmission of mana and the loss in the process, but judging from the efficiency of the previous structure's actions, it doesn't look too clumsy.

Or is it a distributed nuclear crystal? But are the Imperials still using such a backward and inefficient design?

Fang Yu couldn't help but step back and take a closer look at the structure, its slender limbs didn't seem to have a place for the nucleus, the only possible thing was the pointed hat on its head.

"Is it in here?" Fang Yu thought.

While it's a bit of a deviant thing to have the nuclei placed in that place, there are some special designs to protect the core from being destroyed. He stepped forward and drew a gourd to remove the outer shell of his helmet, but he was also surprised by what he saw—there were no core crystals in it, just a strangely shaped contraption he had never seen before.

Although there is indeed a small piece of crystal buried in this device connected to dense pipes, the size and shape of the crystal are not comparable to the nuclear crystal. Moreover, Fang Yu tried to inject magic power, but it did not react at all.

The crystal was translucent lilac, and it seemed to contain a sea of light, and if you looked closely, it seemed to be hundreds of floating stars.

Fang Yu was a little confused now.

The fact that he couldn't find a nuclear crystal was out of his common sense and cognition - there must be a nuclear crystal in a construct, whether it was a flexible constructor or another construct. That's the heart of their storage of magic. And without magic, how can the construct move?

With strong suspicion, he simply removed the shell of the entire structure, but the end result only made him petrified on the spot - there was not a single extra space left for the nuclear crystals in the entire structure.

How is this possible!

Fang Yu almost shouted, which was completely contrary to common sense.

Among the three people next to him, only Luo Yu understood what he was doing, "Leader, this structure doesn't have a core crystal?" ”

Fang Yu nodded confusedly, his brows furrowed.

Luo Yu thought for a moment, "But it has a magic guide furnace, could it be a ......?"

But how can the magic output of the magic furnace be used by this construct? It's not that Fang Yu didn't think about this, it's just that he vetoed it before.

However, Luo Yu's words woke him up, and he walked around to the back of the structure and checked the magic furnace: its model was a little old, about ten years ago in the Empire.

"What kind of magic furnace is this?" Ai Xiaoxiao was very curious for a long time, and asked at this time, "Is it special?" ”

The magic guide furnace is the core equipment that humans can use the magic guide, and it can be said to be one of the epoch-making inventions.

And the different magic furnaces depend on what kind of technical support the wearer needs - the craftsman uses the craftsman's magic furnace, and the ranger uses the ranger's magic furnace, which is a matter of course.

But in the final analysis, the difference in the magic furnace is determined by the different design of the core crystal.

The Lapis Lazuli Magic Furnace is more suitable for craftsmen because the crystal structure and the design of the inserts in it are more suitable for the skills of the craftsmen.

And the Red Fang Crystal Demon Guide Furnace is more suitable for warriors, and the same is true.

Whether or not people can use these magic furnaces depends on their relevant knowledge and understanding of the use and understanding of the plug-ins on the magic furnace.

Therefore, the higher-level magic furnace has more complex and sophisticated inserts and crystals, and also requires the wearer to have more professional knowledge.

However, constructs generally don't play like this, they have their own fixed core crystals, and unlike humans, what abilities they can use depends only on what magic accessories were installed at the beginning of the design.

Although it can be modified in the later stage, it cannot exceed the range of its core crystal support.

Of course, it is also possible to replace the core crystal, but this is equivalent to putting the cart before the horse, because all the accessories of a construct are tailored to match the core crystal at the beginning of the design, and the amount of work required to replace the core crystal is equivalent to redesigning a structure.

For Ai Xiaoxiao's curious question.

Fang Yu only shook his head.

For the above reasons, he at first thought that this was a specially designed magic furnace for flexible construction.

But as it turned out, it wasn't.

"This is just the magic furnace of the gun, after simplification, but it should not be simplified for the sake of this structure, just for cost considerations."

In his heart, he had already had some idea of what this magic furnace was for.

But after thinking about it for a while, Fang Yu still took out a magic storage crystal, then inserted it into the groove, and activated the magic furnace.

In the next moment, the core crystal of the magic furnace lit up, and the wisps of light passed through the metal pipes and ether wires, transmitting to the eleventh type of imperial magic guide on the one hand, and into the huge scabbard on the other.

However, the construct still hangs its head and does not move.

Fang Yu watched this scene silently.

At this time, Tang Xin seemed to understand a little, and there couldn't help but show a hint of surprise in her voice, "The magic power supply of the magic guide furnace is only transmitted to the magic guide?" …… Wait, this construct has a Gunslinger class? ”

Although it was hard to believe, Fang Yu nodded his head.

This is the only explanation that can explain the scene in front of us.

This is actually the same principle as how humans use the Magic Furnace - to provide magical support through the Magic Furnace, using all kinds of magic tools.

Different magic furnaces are just to adapt to different magic guides.

"This is a bit unreasonable," Luo Yu said suddenly, "If it has the profession of a gunner, wouldn't it...... Only a Gunner can control it? ”

Generally speaking, it is.

Craftsmen are able to manipulate different structures because they have the knowledge of the structures in question and know how to use any of the devices on them.

That's why Combat Tinkerers have to cross classes to learn how to use other class combat plugins.

However, they did this by using the core crystals dedicated to the Flexible Construct and the special construction method of the Flexible Construct Body.

Therefore, craftsmen need to use flexible constructs for different classes, after all, they don't need to be masters of the corresponding class.

Luo Yu has a certain understanding of combat craftsmen.

But it was precisely because of this understanding that he realized that it was impossible for the craftsmen to use the magic furnace of the gunsmith and use the magic skills of the gunsmith no matter what.

Unless the controller of the construct is a gunner.

But the question is, how does the Gun control the Flexible Construct Body?

"Generally speaking......" Fang Yu replied.

He took a step back and looked at the ten structures standing opposite each other.

A strange thought arose in his mind.

…… What if they didn't have to manipulate?

The others obviously thought of the previous battle all at once, and couldn't help but be a little quiet.

"But they don't have core crystals, how can they move?" Tang Xin asked.

Fang Yu looked at these ten constructs, and his heart was also full of doubts.

But these constructs should be flexible constructs, and that feeling is not wrong, and only flexible constructs will have that kind of aether fluctuation because of the requirement to input mana from the outside.

"Let's go ahead and have a look." Unable to find an answer for a while, he turned back to the others and said.

The long bridge didn't come to an end, he wanted to see what else was here, the pirate leader should not leave his legacy to outsiders for no reason, the other party would always leave some clues.

Whatever the answer, though, these constructs are clearly not ordinary.

If they can also have the Gunner class, does that mean that the construct can also learn and grow?

If this is true, then the influence of this construct in the alchemy system is probably not inferior to that of the Zero Crystal in his possession.

Although intuition tells Fang that this is unlikely, they should have achieved this through other methods. Either way, it's a great technology.

He stepped back and looked at the form, wondering if this was the god-made thing that the ship's owner had mentioned in his journal.

In some ways, it's a miracle, but in terms of the level of construction, it's not out of touch with today's technology - and even has a strong imperial technical style. He noticed this in some details.

Several people passed through these structures one by one, and the road ahead was actually not very far, as Fang Yu expected: at the end of the long bridge, he found what he was looking for.

It was a square column-shaped platform, and there was still a beating star on the platform, Fang Yu couldn't help but laugh dumbly when he saw this thing, the owner of this ship was really cautious.

He sank into the spirit world, fearing that the other party had prepared some surprise, but he remained careful and unlocked the circle with equal ease.

The starlight dissipated, and the platform clicked as the surface sank down, and a crystal rose onto it.

Fang Yu hesitated for a moment, expecting that this step, the other party should not have any tricks, and put his hand up.

It was a recording crystal, and the moment he put his hand on it, he received the information stored in it.

It was a voice that was a little unangry and arrogant, and even a little arrogant, "...... Latecomers, I don't care who you are, whether it's the Cowlins, the Imperials, the Dwarves, the Elves, the uncivilized beasts of Rotao, or the little fat men and lizardmen of Sanshak, it doesn't matter. ”

“…… When you read this message, then I'm probably already lucky, but I expected this day for a long time, so it's not surprising. ”

“…… You see those things out there, and you can come here, and you should know what they are, and they are the little gifts I have left you, oh, my heir. ”

"But if you inherit my legacy, you will have to avenge me. Go to the Ottorian Empire, where I left my true legacy......"

The voice faded faintly.

Fang Yu was stunned for a moment and withdrew his hand, but of course the information in the recording crystal had changed far more than that.

In the second half of the information recorded by the crystal, the pirate leader also left him a map of the outer seas of Assyria, which was supposed to be the location of his treasure trove.

The platform cracked open, revealing the darkened alloy key below.

Fang Yu looked at this key and understood that this was the only key to open the treasure house mentioned in the record crystal.

But what really surprised him was that something that automatically came into his mind from the recording crystal at that moment.

That's some peculiar information.

It records a peculiar method of constructing an alchemical circle.

No, it should not be said to be one, but a completely new system of alchemy.

And on that alchemy array, Fang Yu seemed to see the Creation Technique, and at the same time saw the shadow of another technical route that he was familiar with.

This alchemy circle is called - Starlight.

Its role is to record the way the craftsmen manipulate the flexible structure.

In short, it's a means of keeping a margin.

Almost instantly, Fang Yu remembered the magic guide device that Lone White Wild had given him.

Closed-loop device.

He had studied that little thing more than once, and there were many similar alchemy circles on it that he couldn't quite understand.

But without exception, they are all much simpler than the current circle.

At the end of these miscellaneous messages, a text message was left.

Although this text reads to Fang Yu, it is a bit like a part of the previous log:

’…… This circle is the most valuable thing found from there......

’…… But it seems that there is still a lot to pay to master it......'

’…… What is missing......

When Fang Yu withdrew his hand, the record crystal suddenly shattered.

The few people behind looked at the black key, and Ai Xiaoxiao asked curiously, "What happened?" ”

Fang Yu was stunned for a while.

Then he turned away, skipping the mess of information that he didn't quite understand himself, and just relaying the cause and effect of the incident to the others.

"So," Tang Xin asked, "this man gave us an inheritance for no reason?" ”

"It's not for nothing," Ai Xiao, "he asked us to help him get revenge." ”

"But did he say revenge on anyone?" Tang Xin's rhetorical question made Ai Xiaoxiao stuck.

Or...... Or did he forget? She asked incredulously.

"Moreover," Luo Yu also said, "the other party is not worried, it is his enemy who came to the door?" Theoretically, that's the most likely, right? ”

"At the same time, how the ship sank here, he didn't make it clear."

Tang Xin and Luo Yu's repeated questions made Ai Xiao speechless for a long time.

The box leaned against the railing alone, looked at the three of them, and did not participate in the discussion.

Fang Yu thought for a while, silently looked at the two rows of structures in the distance, and finally spoke:

"Call the Seven Seas Traveler."

They came to hunt for treasure, but they didn't expect to find something amazing.

……
