Chapter Ninety-Six: Rodney
Later, other judges also began to test in terms of "intelligence", and most of the works were not designed with life logic intelligence, so the judges tested the battlefield response ability of these dummies to see how these works performed in the face of unexpected situations in battle.
It is not that all dummies do not take into account the "intelligent" logic of life, and one of the contestants, who seems to be quite old, has designed this aspect in detail with his work, and the actual effect is very good.
The contestant's name is Rodney, who is much older than Ciri, but he is also only a trainee teacher.
Speaking of Rodney's life experience, it is also full of ups and downs. Rodney was born into a family of farmers, and his family was not wealthy, but he had a good talent for magic, and he worked very hard, and he was always a top student during his studies at Blossom Academy.
After graduating, Rodney successfully stayed in school and joined the ranks of academy mages with his outstanding magical and intellectual talents. After that, the promotion of substitute teaching and internship teaching was also very smooth, and they all passed the review at the first time and the promotion was successful.
The smooth progress of the promotion process made Rodney a little arrogant, and he had always been cautious and cautious when he was conducting his research on the promotion process, taking the risk of researching a very powerful spell, and the experiment was accidental, causing his magical talent to be damaged.
Rodney didn't admit defeat, believing that even if he only had the strength of a beginner intermediate magician, he would be able to make a name for himself and earn enough wealth to buy potions that could repair damaged magical talents.
Rodney then shifted his research and began researching the creation of other spells. It's a pity that the experiment unexpectedly made his magic level not improve an inch, and he was always limited to the level of a beginner intermediate magician. Spell creation has always had high requirements for his own magic level, coupled with his arrogance, the strength of the spells he wants to study and create is not low, and in the second half, Rodney can't even complete the spell release.
By the time Rodney realized that it was impossible to complete such an experiment without the support of a large amount of wealth, with his current strength, his original savings had been spent. Later, Rodney began to invent some gadgets again and again, and the gains were used in experimental research on the promotion of teaching titles.
Heaven seems to have abandoned him, and several subsequent studies have failed for various reasons, or he has not passed the teaching promotion review after the completion of the experiment. Rodney's own level of magic never advanced even further, limiting his research work even more.
Time gradually polished all the edges and corners of Rodney, burying all his ambitions and ideals. Rodney married an ordinary battle mage and gave birth to a lovely daughter. He no longer thinks about the restoration of magical talents and the promotion of teaching titles, and instead joins the testing ground of other senior teaching assistants, working as an assistant to obtain a stable income to raise his daughter.
Although as an assistant, he can only work according to other people's arrangements, and even if he creates, he will be justified in someone else's name, but watching his daughter grow up day by day, the family is very happy.
Rodney's daughter inherited his excellent magical talents, but not his mind and personality. This child has been fond of fighting since he was a child, and he longs for strong personal strength. A few years ago, as soon as her daughter graduated from Fanhua Academy, she didn't participate in the academy mage assessment, so she ran to join the Battle Mage Association and become a combat mage. For this reason, Rodney had a quarrel with his daughter for a long time and almost broke off the father-daughter relationship.
As time passed, Rodney was unable to change his daughter's mind, and his daughter never understood the nature of the world--- knowledge was the greatest power. Later, he himself saw it, and instead of blaming the child, he bought a lot of magic props and scrolls for the other party after his daughter joined a high-level large mercenary group.
Time passes, and if there are no accidents, Rodney will grow old and leave this world silently, as the vast majority of people do.
But fate is always unpredictable, and at some point, it will give you the opportunity you have been longing for when you least expect it. Rodney learned about the new Logic Module from a friend by chance, and his life changed.
The [logic module] itself does not require high magic power, but it is difficult to learn and understand. Rodney has a high intellectual talent, but he can't use it due to his own magic powers, and the knowledge of the [Logic Module] is very much in line with his own situation. When the numerical profiler was released, Rodney realized that this knowledge had a lot to offer. The ideals that had long been buried by time broke through the ground, and the ambitious Rodney was cut out of the dust of time by himself.
Ciri's second lecture [Logic Module] course, Rodney listened carefully to all the lessons, relying on intellectual talent, he completed all the tasks assigned by Ciri, and was finally selected as the first batch of judges.
The precipitation of time and the ups and downs of life make Rodney extremely calm, rigorous and meticulous. After the topic of making a dummy was announced, he was not in the same hurry as everyone else to start making research. Instead, he carefully reorganized and summarized all the [logic module] knowledge he had learned. After a long period of reflection, Rodney decided to follow his own understanding of the role of the Logic Module.
Rodney designed a farmer's dummy, based on his father's figure as a child, with a twist on his own experiences. Rodney designed a detailed identity and life experience for the dummy, and used all the knowledge he learned [Logic Module] to design the dummy farmer's every move, facial expression, language system, brief logic and external information feedback processing, etc., although it is not perfect, but this farmer can answer most of the questions, and will also have corresponding facial expressions.
Rodney didn't design a combat system at all, and the dummy would only defend with his fists, feet, and limbs like a normal farmer, and would not attack under normal circumstances. The dummy stood there like a real farmer, with a cramped expression, with sorrow and vicissitudes, a little wooden when answering questions, speaking slowly, and many things that he didn't understand would only answer and not know.
When someone attacks him, he runs away. If you can't escape, you'll curse and scold, and it's a simple defense. These are actually pre-designed feedback performance behaviors, but Rodney has designed the entire [Logic Module] system very well, and most of the external information has corresponding feedback design, making the whole dummy look lifelike.
On the way to the assessment, Rodney was also very worried about whether he understood the [logic module] correctly. Aside from the fact that there were other people's works depicting ordinary people such as merchants and fishermen, it was nothing more than a camouflage design to confuse the enemy. Those dummies have the appearance of ordinary people, but in fact, they are still fighting machines in essence.
Only Rodney, the farmer dummy, is really powerless, and if he compares his combat strength, he will definitely lose the election.
When Ciri, the presiding judge, stretched out his right hand to shake hands with the first warrior dummy, Rodney's heart finally fell.
