Chapter 1972: The Origin of the Puppet

Unlike Jin Siqi's Thanksgiving Dade, Kailan, who was holding a pure gold revolver, had a depressed expression on his face.

Hitting a stick and then giving a sweet date is the way to control it.

Since she has already given Kailan a slap in the face, she must also give her a sweet date to comfort her soul.

So I slowed down my tone and said: "What I said just now is indeed a bit heavy, but this is also for fear that you will live up to your father-in-law's kindness, you must know that this revolver is not just a piece of pure gold, but is infused with the father-in-law's ardent expectations for his future daughter-in-law, hoping that you can treat it well." ”

Kellan nodded aggrievedly.

Seeing that she was still interested, I sighed helplessly and said, "In this way, after you spend all your pocket money, I allow you, on the premise of having clear accounts, to apply for some more funds from me as pocket money, but the amount of pocket money spent again is not allowed to exceed half of your existing pocket money." ”

Hearing this, Kailan suddenly became excited, first shouted long live, and then hugged me and kissed me fiercely.

When the weapon was delivered, the handover officer handed me another pocket watch, and I looked at him in surprise, but I saw that he blinked, nodded again, and immediately knew that this was a special arrangement made by Master Dewey to prevent Daphne from having any opinions.

Daphne loved the gift so much that she held it tightly in her arms, and her excitement was palpable.

After doing all this, in the eyes of the three women, I boarded the magic airship and sailed to Vicky Castle.

The airship arrived at Vicky Castle at noon the next day, and after getting off the airship, I headed straight for the Goblin Palace.

Counting the time, Master Dewey and Master Hall should have been studying ancient scripts in the forbidden place, and perhaps Fred Alexander's coffin was also on display.

The thought of the two of them asking for knowledge about ancient writing from a cloud of memory magic struck me as comical.

Entering the palace, I walked briskly in the direction of the forbidden land, and along the way, passing attendants bowed to me.

When I arrived at the gate of the forbidden place, I asked the two heavily armed dwarven guards guarding the gate if Master Dewey was inside, and after receiving a positive answer, I knocked on the door twice, and without waiting for any reaction from the insiders, I pushed the door directly.

The scene in the forbidden land was exactly what I had imagined, and Master Dewey and Master Hall were holding a large and heavy book, constantly asking Fred Alexander, who was in a state of memory magic, for advice.

In the face of these two studious juniors, Alexander also began to play the role of a professor, guiding and preaching to them, almost to the point of answering questions and teaching them.

It is no wonder that with the collapse of the reign of the goblins, only a small group of surviving members of the goblin royal family really inherited the ancient civilization, and the goblins who swept away a number of historical documents and ancient texts in the name of looting.

Freed Alexander, who had personally experienced this period of history, greatly appreciated the goblins' move, and it was because of them that this last bit of ancient civilization was preserved.

With a good impression, it is natural to spare no effort to get things done.

One of them was teaching, two were learning, and they were having a lot of fun, when they were suddenly interrupted by my intrusion, and Master Hall exploded directly, and without thinking about it, he shouted: "Didn't you say that no one was allowed to set foot in the forbidden land without permission, how could anyone dare to ...... Hey? Is it Xiao Yi? What are you doing here? ”

This change in attitude made the two dwarven guards guarding the gate laugh.

I couldn't help but laugh and said, "What, I'm not welcome to come?" ”

Master Hall scratched his hair in embarrassment and snorted.

Master Dewey took out his pocket watch and looked at it, then smiled kindly, and said, "I thought you would come back after lunch, but I didn't expect to rush over without stopping." ”

After that, he turned to Fred Alexander and said respectfully, "Let me have a meal with my son, and then continue to ask for advice." ”

Alexander smiled.

I saluted Alexander and withdrew with Master Dewey.

On the way, I explained the artillery plan to Master Dewey in detail, and Master Dewey patted me on the back approvingly, and said: "You have done a good job in this matter, gems can only be regarded as priceless treasures in the eyes of those who know how to appreciate, and for those who do not know how to appreciate, it is just a beautiful stone." ”

I was noncommittal to Master Dewey's analogy, and after a moment's thought, I leaned down and whispered, "Among that cannon are some elements that are too delicate to be reproduced with modern technology, and I suspect that their forging methods come from ancient civilizations. ”

"Ancient Civilization ......" Master Dewey said thoughtfully: "If it is really as you think, the scientific and technological power of Vicky Castle will go further." ”

"It's a pity that no matter how strong the scientific and technological force is, it can't compete with individual force after all," I regretted.

"Not really," Master Dewey shook his head, "There is also a precedent for the power of science and technology to prevail over individual force. ”

I frowned, "Do you mean the puppets who outperform the low-level adventurers?" ”

Master Dewey shook his head again and said, "The puppets created with today's technology can only deal with low-level adventurers at most, but it is said that during the reign of the goblins, someone once created a powerful puppet more than ten meters high, and its combat power can rival several national forces at the same time. ”

"Can a puppet compete with several national forces?" I wondered.

Although I have seen the scene of Old Man Taylor's bloody abuse of the country's power before, I know very well that it is because Old Man Taylor's strength is as strong as hanging, not because the country's strength is weak.

"I know you don't believe it, in fact, I didn't believe it at first" Master Dewey said: "On the way to send His Highness Alexander's coffin here, I asked him to verify the puppet, he told me that this thing is true, similar puppets did exist, and after the death of His Royal Highness Rupert, they were also activated to fight against the rebels of various races, although they killed all sides in the battle, but there were too many rebels, and there were problems in their own camp, which eventually led to the destruction of all the puppets, and the puppet scientists were also ruthlessly killed, As a result, this civilization was lost. ”

"That's a shame," I sighed, "if only this technology could survive to this day." ”

"The loss of this technology is not just a few puppets," Master Dewey said: "What is even more heart-wrenching is that because of its loss, another ancient civilization has disappeared." ”

"You're saying that this puppet is not the work of the reign of the elves, but follows the ancient civilization?"

Master Dewey nodded and said, "His Royal Highness Alexander later told me that the puppet manufacturing technology during the reign of the goblins was actually completely based on the fragments of the puppet manufacturing technology in ancient civilizations. ”
