Seeing that what was pushed out was the parts and not the materials, Tang Shidao felt very strange.

In line with the professional vision of a refiner, Tang Shidao believes that this time the test is not skill and ability, but another thing that a mage in the net should have: insight!

For example, a mage like Prince Zhou, who lived in an ancient dynasty, if he didn't often do tasks and didn't know the magic puppet, then he would be trapped.

I am a person who lives in modern society.

The task is relatively simple.

For example, the robots of scientific research, the fighter puppets of games, and the artificial humans with brains in movies are all related to 'robot dolls'. It's not that it's real in the movie, but I know about such existence through various channels. Ancient people didn't know about robots, and it was very difficult to assemble one just by imagining. I already know it, at least I won't be confused.

This kind of task of the evil pupil is not to pit anyone, who can blame you if you don't even have this kind of knowledge.

In Mage.com, the Clockwork Puppet is the most basic magic puppet, the lowest level of production.

Normally.

The refiners all use magic energy instead of clockwork, and only in a ghost place like the Forbidden Demon Land, the puppet of the magic energy core will become invalid. As a result, no refiner with a modicum of skill would be studying the clockwork golem all the time. The evil pupil gives such a task, and it is not deliberately releasing water. Instead, it provides parts rather than materials, which is exactly the kind of difficulty.

A part is something that has been manufactured, and a material is something that can be freely transformed.

The former has its own limitations...... You have to do it in a fixed way. Of course, you can also disassemble parts, but it's hard to say whether you can pass the customs or not.

Tang Shidao didn't think too much about it.

Slowly inspect the large pile of parts, looking for parts that might be pieced together to form a clockwork puppet.

On the other hand.

The practice of manipulating the Black Flame has not stopped, and this increase in force is more important than the improvement of skill. Being trapped in someone else's competition platform, instead of relying on other people's rules, it is better to rely on your own strength. As long as there is no shortage of force, even if the anti-mages play any tricks in the end, they are not afraid. The current progress has been successfully simulated with black flames, but the two black flames cannot be touched.

As soon as it touches it, it immediately melts into a ball, and it can be regarded as stuck at this point.

A few hours later.

Tang Shidao selects some parts and slowly assembles them into a model of a 'puppet boy'.

Submitted, impressive...... Passed the first time!

There are no perfect rewards, just simple buttons down. Seeing this scene, Tang Shidao felt that the pit was even bigger. This time, clearing the level is a special reward, and the more knowledgeable the refiner, the easier it is to win. For the contestants with more miscellaneous studies, this is an important level for them to win food.

Unfortunately, I don't need food.

It's too easy to clear the customs, but Tang Shidao thinks that the 'Perfect Raider' is a sinkhole.

Now that there is no obstacle to clearing the customs, the mood is relaxed at this time.

Dismantling the puppet boy, Tang Shidao took the time to reassemble and assemble a model of the puppet puppy. If you submit it again, it will still be the same result, and it will still be a 'qualified' assembly work. The second time was successful, but Tang Shidao frowned.

The difficulty in controlling the Black Flame is that the road has come to an end, and there is no way.

The difficulty with clockwork puppets is that they succeed in every way, but none of them are truly perfect.

Tang Shidao naturally did not admit defeat.

The evil pupil is just a dead man, why should he bow down to such a dead man. The primordial black flame cultivation is improved, Tang Shidao no longer cares about victory or defeat, and the improvement of his strength is his biggest gain.

Keep practicing.

Continue to assemble.

Three or four days later, Tang Shidao assembled a puppet warrior again. Submitted, qualified, and unsurprisingly, the result was still no reward.

After another seven or eight days, another puppet beauty was assembled. Efficiency, qualification, and still not being rewarded.

In this process of dismantling, disassembling and assembling, the cultivation of manipulating the black flame has not been improved, and it is stuck in the step of fusion. Tang Shidao himself was a little surprised, wondering if his talent had reached the limit. I already felt that cultivating the Primordial Black Flame had made me have a reborn change. However, there is a limit to this 'funding'.

It is the origin power of the Dark Golden Crow, not its own...... You have to have your own things.

Think of this layer.

Tang Shidao felt as if he had fallen into a fog, and there seemed to be an exit, but he couldn't grasp his thoughts for a while.

In the confusion, the hands do not stop.

I continued to disassemble the parts, and soon assembled the doll kitten, the doll bird, the doll old man, and the old woman. Unconsciously, Tang Shidao felt that there were a lot of parts, and he made two dolls at a time, a puppet boy and a puppet girl.

This moment.

Tang Shidao trembled, as if he saw a glimmer of light from the fog.

Old man, old woman, samurai, beauty, boy and girl, puppy, kitten, bird...... Isn't this a family photo of grandparents, parents, children, pets, cats, dogs, and birds? Could this be the answer to the mystery, the trap that the evil pupil really set?

The part is then calculated.

Inadequate!

Far from enough!

All the materials on the countertop are barely enough to assemble seventy percent. In other words, adults and children must be missing, or cats, dogs, etc. cannot be wanted. At this point, Tang Shidao didn't think much about it, and tried to piece together a family of parents, children, and pets.

Submitted, eligible...... But there are no rewards.

"That's not right." Tang Shidao shook his head, and he didn't want a pet and a child, submitted, or qualified without a reward.

At this time, Tang Shidao stopped.

I thought to myself, this is definitely a super big hole. It's easy to get through, but it's too hard to be perfect.

I don't want to be a puppet for the time being.

Tang Shidao urged the primordial black flame again, slowly forming a square block. This has been done before, but the combination just now gave Tang Shidao a hint of opportunity: doing it is not equal to perfect, and the previous success is not a perfect harvest.

Flames turn into blocks, which is not what you want.

Slowly.

Tang Shidao manipulated the black flame compression, transforming towards the pure square of 'no fire'. At this moment, Tang Shidao believes that black flame and black flame are like water adding water, it will definitely melt. There is only one way to keep water from melting: turn it into ice!

Now I need the 'hard' primordial black flame.

This is also a new direction that he has opened up in a different way from the dark golden crow.

However.

Success is not so easy.

Black flame is black flame, fire is fire, and it is very difficult to become solid. It's like there is only a family of four parts, and it is impossible to assemble a family of six. Send another copy? Of course you can, a family of eight can make it. But will you get a perfect evaluation? Absolutely not! Not to mention that the evil pupil is not satisfied, he doesn't think this is a success.

Assembling.

Neither does it work to solidify the black flame.

Tang Shidao found a new way, but it was also blocked by this thorny road.

Hard work does not mean success, inspiration does not mean success, and even the sum of the two may lack an element called luck. Tang Shidao did not stop, because he knew that waiting was absolutely unsuccessful, and it was better to take one more step, no, half a step more than to stand still.

If one day of experimentation fails, it will be used for two days.

If the experiment fails in two days, it will be used for three days.

There is no turning back for the strong to practice this kind of thing. Turning back is tantamount to failure, and failure is tantamount to giving up on yourself. In the face of adversity, there is nothing more tragic than giving up on yourself. Tang Shidao believes that the Mage Network gives everyone a platform, but it will not help you walk. To learn to run, you must not be afraid of falling yourself.

Ten days, twenty days. One month, two months......

Time did not stop passing like this, and Tang Shidao still did not make the slightest progress.

Merely.

Maybe God will always favor those who work so hard.

More than four months later, an accident occurred during an assembly and patchwork, and Tang Shidao accidentally burned off one of the arms of the puppet samurai. The power of the primordial black flame was so powerful that the metal parts didn't even have a chance to be rescued, and they directly turned into 'smoke and vapor' and flew away. Tang Shidao smiled bitterly, looked up at the samurai who was missing an arm, and was stunned.

It seems that there is nothing wrong with a samurai who is missing an arm.

This is an opportunity.

Tang Shidao did not preemptively assemble and transform, but thinned the black flame of the square on his palm and turned it into the shape of a piece of paper...... If the block can't be cured, then the difficulty will be lowered and it will become a piece of paper. As long as it is a solidified black flame, it doesn't matter if it turns into a needle, Tang Shidao only wants to turn the flame state of the black flame into a solid state.

It took another month and a half to stumble over this 'paper' change, barely condensing a thin sheet the size of a finger.

Such a gadget, Tang Shidao almost wanted to cheer excitedly.

Next.

Return all the parts, get a new full one, and assemble it while continuing to control and practice. An old man with a missing leg, a samurai father with a missing arm, and even a pet can lose an eye and a claw. Except for a pair of complete puppet children, Tang Shidao thought of saving all the ways he could.

Outcome...... Still still not enough material.

Tang Shidao didn't want to get a pair of children with broken feet and hands, instinctively, he felt that this was the wrong answer. This is a family portrait that can be broken by the elderly, by the samurai father, by the beautiful mother, by the pet, but only by the two children. Even if two children are missing an eye, it all means nothing.

The old man represents the old days of the foundation, the father of the swordsman represents the present of the inheritance, and the child represents the ...... Future!

If the future is 'missing', then what is the point of this family.

Tang Shidao didn't even need to give it a try with a defective child, instinctively rejecting this practice. What is the use of today's efforts if the future is bound to be unfortunate. The road did not pass, but Tang Shidao insisted on not turning. While practicing control, I also found a way to piece it together.

Soon.

Detective Black Flame went from 'black paper' to a small black stick, and then from a small black stick to a small black square. After a few efforts, everything finally returned to its original place. At this time, looking at the two 'complete' work puppet children, Tang Shidao felt that he had not chosen the wrong path. This is a road that the dark golden crow has never taken, but he has successfully made a start.

Solidifying a small black square, Tang Shidao began the most unknown step.

Place a small square on top of another small square.

Simple.

Piece on top of piece.

Tang Shidao concentrated all his attention, careful, and careful, and gently stacked a smaller square.

A slight snap.

There is no blending...... Two small squares overlapping each other...... The Detective's Advanced Experiment has been successful!

Looking at the two small squares, Tang Shidao smiled: "It's really successful, ha, although you are still as fragile as a newborn baby, but I will continue to ......"

Happily muttered to himself.

Suddenly, Tang Shidao stopped talking.

As soon as he turned his head, he looked at the two puppet children, and the word 'baby' appeared in his mind inexplicably.

Three seconds later.

"Haha, sure enough, Lady Luck is watching over me." Tang Shidao smiled sincerely.
