Chapter 2072: Ash Annihilation at Dawn (4)

As soon as he came out of Logan's workshop, Beddeville immediately saw a large group of golden scarab golems flying over, and these small things were still scattered in the hallway, as if they were planning to use human (insect) tactics to find the escaped golem.

"I'm afraid it's inefficient to do that. Old man Logan chuckled under his breath.

"So what do you have to do?" the werewolf youth glanced at the mage.

"Tut-tut------" Logan let out a strange squeak, at first Bediwell thought it was a sarcasm for him, but it was not, and soon a small black object ran out of the shadows of the corridor on the side, apparently attracted by Logan's voice. When Bediwell looked closely, it turned out to be a little black cat. The small, skinny kitten was the stray cat that Kate had adopted...... And Kate casually named this little thing, and called it Little Black.

"Meow~~~" The kitten leaned over and let out a low cry, the cry was soft and trivial, as if it was coquettish to Beddie and others, saying that it was hungry, or bored and wanted to find someone to play with it.

"Good, good, good kitten. Old man Rogge took out a bag of small dried fish of unknown origin from his arms and stuffed it in front of the cat's mouth: "Help me after eating this." ＂

The kitten made a small clattering sound, chewed up the dried fish in a few strokes and swallowed it, and then wagged its tail happily to please the old man.

"You really have a knack for teasing cats. But what's the use of a cat?" the werewolf young man subconsciously rubbed his nose, if he wanted to find something, his puppy's nose would not be worse than a cat's sense of smell.

"It's not Blackie's sense of smell that needs to be used, it's his night vision. Old man Logan stroked the cat's head with his hand, and as he muttered something that only a cat could understand.

"Take a good look, stupid apprentice. Talking to animals and using telepathy and hypnosis to control creatures that are physically and mentally inferior to you is the foundation of becoming a mage. After Rogge and the cat gave the order, he turned to the werewolf youth and said, "If you can't even do this, it's a fool's dream to become a good mage." ＂

"So I don't want to be a mage at all...... Bediwell muttered. Orcs can't use spells at all, and all spells will be covered by the few transformation spells that orcs are born with.

"And it's a little thing that can be easily done with spells. He added.

"So next time it's your turn to perform, use your spell to control an animal and show me. Logan then said.

Bediwell shuddered, and did not continue.

"Meow~!" Xiao Hei seemed to have found something, and swaggered ahead while calling out to the old mage as a gesture.

"Let's go along. Logan said.

Bediwell then followed the kitten with the mage and began to track down the golem, whose appearance was not even clear.

"I still don't understand," said the kitten, who was not too fast, and although it was already running on all fours, it looked a little unable to run because it was very thin. The werewolf youth saw that it was boring to chase after the cat, so he talked to the old man: "So what did Xiao Hei rely on to track that golem?

And there's no taste to trace. This was confirmed by Bediwell himself, and when the black shadow passed by him just now, the werewolf youth's sensitive puppy nose should have been able to catch the smell of that thing somewhat. But it was clear that the golem that had been restored by the old mage was of a completely inorganic matter, and that the shell seemed to have been made of metal and wood, and that it was as difficult to find a metal object by smell in this cabin that was already filled with the smell of metal, as it was to find a fixed drop of seawater in the sea.

"Although it is said to rely on night vision, it is not quite. Logan then said, "Stupid apprentice, do you know that the ancient Egyptians believed that cats were messengers of the underworld and could see such things as ghosts?"

"I've heard of it, but isn't that superstition?"

"Not exactly superstition. Master Da then shook his head: "Many legends in human history are based on certain facts, even if this fact may be very different from the inheritance of later generations. It has been said that all the myths of ancient times actually originated from the vague memories left by human civilization after contact with higher civilizations. ＂

"I've heard of this, too," Bediwell nodded, "The ancient gods and people may be the [gods] worshipped by the ancient humans in the past." Although now there is more and more evidence that they may be from another, uh, worldly, higher civilization. ------But what does this have to do with the fact that cats can see the dead?"

Rogge smiled indifferently: "Some animals are born with more powerful abilities than humans, and as an orc, you should know this better than me. ＂

Bediwell did not answer, and should say that there was no answer. As a werewolf, his sense of smell alone is many times more sensitive than that of humans. Of course, orcs don't seem to have much more sensitive sense of smell than animals, and Bediwell's puppy nose is not as good as that of a real puppy. Although these orcs are mixed with the genetic factors of beasts on the basis of humans, which is a kind of strengthening humans, after all, half of the orcs are [human], and for the convenience of life, they will definitely not have complete abilities like real beasts. Otherwise, if the sense of smell is as sensitive as a real puppy, a random smell can make the orcs dizzy, how will they live this day?

"I think the reason why cats are thought to be able to see ghosts is because they have a certain level of photon vision. Logan continued, "It's not so much that cats can see ghosts, but that the world that cats can see in their eyes is actually a world that contains photons. ＂

"[True sight]?" Bediwell snorted.

"Well, I guess it's called a technique called true sight. Logan nodded: "Even humans, after considerable professional training, can use combat skills to see the world of photons, right? ＂

"Yes. The werewolf youth looked curiously at the kitten walking in front. He couldn't help but wonder what was the difference between the world he saw in the eyes of a black cat and the world they saw as ordinary people.

"But there's no way to explain why it can be used to track down the escaped golem. Bediwell asked, "Does the golem leave traces of photons in its path?"

"There's always going to be a little bit. Rogan said, "The core was just packed into the new Golem's body not long ago, and it's still in a state of slight mana leakage. The kitten can track down the leaked traces of magic and find its location along the way. Probably. ＂

"Probably...... Bedivir stretched his face.

"There were children yesterday, and I didn't explain it to you in detail," Old Man Logan blinked, and said in a low voice, "But after a day of testing, I can tell you with almost 100% certainty that the person who made that Golem Core was made with the most despicable [Forbidden Technique] to make that level of Golem Core." ＂

"Forbidden?"

"[Echoes of Life]. Logan snorted lowly: "In layman's terms, it is a forbidden technique that seals the human soul inside the Golem core, and uses extremely cheap means to make the Golem Core almost possess [perpetual motion technology]. ＂

"Damn it!"

"And it's not ordinary human souls that can be used, but the souls of children under the age of six. Logan said quietly, "Only children who are still young and not yet sensible can use that forbidden technique to make [Echo of Life Stone]. As humans grow older, their souls become more and more unstable, and there is no way to smoothly seal them into the core of the golem and form a core that is stable in nature. It is because this forbidden art is so inhumane and so evil that it has been banned by ivory towers more than two hundred years ago. Now, if any mages are found to be using this forbidden art to make golems, they will inevitably be attacked by the Mage Association. ＂

"Wait...... The core of those wooden golems, you say...... Originally, it was all human...... Children's souls?!" Bediwell sighed, "If this is the case, wouldn't it be ------! to destroy the Golem?"

"It's better not to delve into this kind of thing. Logan grimaced and said, "Once it is made into [Life Echo Stone], the original [material] is basically useless." The core of the production is just a core that will simply obey orders, there is no joy or sorrow, and don't think it is good to be a child. ＂

"Still, they [were] ------!"

"Think about it, stupid apprentice. The old mage snorted, "There are more people doing evil in this world, just as there are more homeless street children in this world. There are more poor countries in Africa and countries with a huge gap between rich and poor than in Europe, and the phenomenon of child trafficking is even more serious. No matter how strong your sense of justice is, you can't save everyone in the world, and there are some things that you can't control, so it's better not to care too much. ＂

"Tsk!" Bediwell was speechless.

"We cannot intervene in the evil things that are happening in the world at this very moment. The old mage said, "But at least take care of what you can do around you." The little thing that escaped was also a child. When I refactored its core, I also unlocked the circuit that inhibits thinking. Maybe it's hiding in some dark corner of your sand boat right now, shivering with fear, or worse, doing something stupid out of fear?"

Hearing this, the werewolf young man's back was cold.

At this moment, Xiao Hei, who was walking in front and was in charge of tracking the golem, stopped. It stopped in front of a large black iron door and meowed, but was anxious because it couldn't get in.

"Looks like it's in there. Logan said, "Did you run in through the ventilation duct?"

Bediwell looked at the ventilation duct that was only half the size of a fist, and the small slit that even Xiao Hei, who was a cat, couldn't get into, which meant that the golem that was transformed by Logan was even smaller than a cat.

"Ahead is a forbidden area, and only the most senior managers with the status of captain can enter. A reminder came from the hallway.

"Looks like you're up to to you to do something. Old Logan looked at Bedigville.

"Good...... Bedivel scratched his head: "Eve, open the door and let me in." ＂

"Yes, Captain. Eve agreed, and opened a secret door to a mysterious area of the sandship that no one had yet visited.

Inside the crack of the door, there was darkness that could not be seen. Bediwell swallowed a mouthful of saliva and cautiously stepped inside.
