Mo Yun, who was standing in front of the Trap Beast, obviously didn't expect this change, although she was a Qi Senser, she didn't have much combat experience, and froze in place for a while.

At this time, the bipedal prototype was much more complete than before, not only did it have two legs, but also installed a chair on the upper part, which was half a cut taller than Mo Yun, and the weight was close to that of two adults, and if it was hit head-on, serious injuries were almost inevitable.

"Li!" Xia Fan shouted.

As his voice spoke, Li's figure swelled rapidly.

A huge fox appeared in the courtyard!

She lifted her front paws and slammed them down on the trap beast, right in the middle of the junction between the two legs. The Trap Beast, which was originally built as a prototype of the principle, did not do any reinforcement, and was directly slapped from the center by this powerful claw, and the two wooden legs staggered and fell to the ground.

Seeing that the threat was lifted, Li Ye immediately changed back to his original state and straightened out his slightly wrinkled clothes.

"You're alright. Xia Fan stepped forward.

Mo Yun looked at the Trap Beast with a distressed expression—this was the result of her hard work for several days in a row, and it returned to zero in less than the blink of an eye, "I'm fine, thank you Miss Li for saving me." Just now...... What the hell is going on?"

"That's what I want to know. Xia Fan turned his head to look at the joints that were still swinging back and forth on the ground, and at this time, no one was injecting qi into the Heavenly Movement Instrument, so the biggest suspicion was the weird Soul Gathering Talisman.

According to the princess, this thing contains evil spirits, and only officials above the Privy Council can drive it. At the same time, it also requires specific conditions to unblock, and it has no effect when used alone. The only time she witnessed her acquaintances perform it was in the Qingshan Town Shikao, using the Great Wilderness Night to condense the charm into a demon.

It's just that she doesn't like this kind of dark and weird stuff very much, so she doesn't bother to ask.

Xia Fan approached the damaged wooden frame and picked up the talisman with his body.

At this point, it no longer fluoresces, and the imprints on it are faint and unrecognizable, as if it has become an old piece of ordinary paper.

"Nine times out of ten, it has something to do with this talisman. Xia Fan shook the spell on his finger and briefly told Mo Yun the ins and outs.

"How can the Privy Council still have such a thing?" the other party showed a shocked expression, "Aren't they an institution that specializes in destroying evil spirits?"

"That's what I thought at first. Xia Fan shrugged.

The Privy Council was an institution that became independent of the six ministries after the collapse of the Eternal Kingdom, but the history of the Fangshi is much deeper, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the two are in some way inherited. The bronze torture vessels in the grottoes in Gaoshan County have proved that some monks have carried out specific research on evil spirits as early as a hundred years ago.

"This thing...... It can also be used by ordinary people to drive magic weapons!" Mo Yun couldn't help but exhale, "Do you know what this means?"

She walked back and forth excitedly, as if she had a lot to say, but after a while, her steps slowed down, and the look in her eyes was extremely complex and contradictory.

Even without asking, Xia Fan could guess the other party's thoughts.

Mo Yun undoubtedly thought of its broad prospects for the first time.

The number of Qi Sensers directly limited the use of mechanical techniques, and the government's emphasis on the soldiers made most of the achievements of the Mechanical Bureau only available in a small area under the jurisdiction of the military and the Privy Council.

If this restriction can be broken, the trick will surely usher in an unprecedented take-off!

But this talisman is related to evil spirits.

Evil is not born for no reason.

If there really is a way to seal the evil qi in the talisman, it also means the death of the living beings.

As a researcher, the allure of improving and promoting the technique is unimaginable.

But after all, she could hardly use the evil spirit as the driving energy of the mechanism.

"You don't have to worry too much. Xia Fan pondered for a moment before speaking, "I don't think it can bring about a revolution in mechanical arts. The root cause of the scarcity of alchemists is that they are monopolized by the Privy Council, and if they could be used openly, they would not be what they are now. ”

"Why?" Mo Yun blinked, "It can make ordinary people use tricks!"

"Really?" Xia Fan lowered his voice, "I'm familiar with how long it took to operate this prototype?" Even now, I don't dare to say that I can control it to run back and forth with ease. ”

"What do you mean......" Li suddenly gasped.

"It has two celestial motion instruments on each leg, which must be reversed to simulate human movements. And there is no default setting for the natural motion instrument, but if you inject air, you can't move at all, at most you will break the joint. Charvin paused, "But this thing...... The drive of the four joints was accurate from the very beginning. ”

The fox demon couldn't help but hold his hands on his chest and shivered.

Mo Yun's face was also a little pale, although the word default setting sounded quite awkward, but she could also understand the meaning that Xia Fan wanted to express, "You mean, this trap beast was conscious the moment it moved?"

"I'm just guessing, but the reason why the evil can become the evil is because the strong qi is gone. If it's just pure qi, then heaven and earth are everywhere, so why borrow from the soul gathering talisman. ”

This assumption is very eerie.

After the disembodied qi is released, it will still attack living creatures with instinct, even if the shell is replaced by a trap beast - let alone use it by ordinary people, it is a dangerous thing for it to flow into the people.

"Whew...... You have a point. After extinguishing the possibility of using this method to popularize the magic technique, Mo Yun quickly returned to normal, "It's better to completely eliminate the evil spirit." ”

"What happened in the yard?" Shan Hui also recovered from the impact, "Why did the things you made fall apart? I should have hit the table......

The eyes of the three of them were fixed on him.

"It can't be because of me, is it?" Tengu couldn't help but take a step back.

"What to do?" asked Li expressionlessly.

"Before Miss Mo finishes repairing, he will take care of all the dirty work. Xia Fan nodded at Mo Yun, "If you have any needs, please feel free to drive, he will not have an opinion." ”

"Then you're welcome. The latter smiled with the corners of his mouth raised.

......

In the end, Mo Yun didn't drive Shan Hui as a coolie, she just asked the other party to keep the appearance of Shiba Inu, and occasionally touched it when she was tired from work.

It seems that the cat and dog decompression method is a general rule throughout the multiverse.

Xia Fan also wanted to emulate the other party, but the problem was that he wanted to pet the fox demon in his normal form more than the transformed fox - this difference between coming and going made it difficult for him to speak.

During the period when Moyun was rebuilding the Trap Beast, Xia Fan also tried to create the framework of other possible runes. For example, chemical formulas are used to express fire-related techniques in surgery, and laws of physics are used to explain the generation and changes of stroke in Sundatsu, but the test results all end in failure.

After some analysis, he thought that it might have something to do with the way the talisman was expressed.

Whether it's an abstract wind blowing willows or an electric current amplified in a line, what is presented is a picture of the process, which mirrors the idea of how this phenomenon came to be.

However, chemical formulas and law formulas are different in that they are essentially a professional language rather than a picture.

For example, if you change the symbol of the chemical element in the formula to plain words, it still does not change its meaning, and it can even be read directly.

Mere declarative words do not have the power to induce magic.

Otherwise, the talisman should be full of sentences.

According to this line of thought, Xia Fan thought that if he could draw a scene of key energy changes and energy absorption and release during the combustion process on the chipping paper, he might be able to use it as a talisman. But first, it was beyond his reach, and second, he wasn't sure if the microstructure of the world was still the same as his common sense.

Maybe the more you draw, the more you get wrong.

After all, there is gas in this world.

This is also the reason why Xia Fan chose to start teaching mathematics.
