"Don't worry." Patlock said: "Leave this question to me. Before that, stop them." "No problem!" Su Chen replied. As soon as he lifted his left hand, a large swath of sparks overflowed, and a flame phoenix had begun to take shape, rushing towards the mountain wall, the huge impact turned into a wave of flames, causing the rushing bugs to throw themselves into the flames. At the same time, Patlock had brought most of his soul out of the blade, and his imaginary fingers pointed at Su Chen: "Concentrate your mental power and follow my will!" A thought has entered Su Chen's body. This is Pat. Locke's will. In the next moment, Su Chen's mental power has flowed under Patlock's will, combined in a special way, and quickly formed. Soon, a brand-new spirit element source technique appeared on Su Chen. Su Chen quickly knew what kind of source skill this was. The soul is strong! The mind is strong, as the name suggests, is to use spiritual power to build a spiritual barrier to protect oneself. Su Chen's previous method was to use his own mental power to fight against the opponent. It was simply that he would consume as much as the opponent consumed, so the consumption was extremely high. But now that he has a strong mental wall, it is different. The effect of his mental power on defense is greatly improved, and his consumption is greatly reduced as a result. Su Chen quickly drank the awakening potion, resumed consumption, and immediately felt much easier to resist the insect swarm. In this way, Su Chen was finally able to let go, and wave after wave of fire and phoenix magical powers poured out, hitting the mountain wall, burning the insect swarms screaming. I don't know how long it has been burning, and suddenly the roots of his ears become clean. Su Chen can no longer hear the harsh screams, and there is no more worms in the mountain wall, knowing that this wave of worms has been completely wiped out. The tunnel was full of corpses, and there was a disgusting smell from the burnt bugs. Su Chen endured the odor and picked out a few intact ones from the insect swarm to collect the source ring. "Thank you, Patlock, thanks to you this time." Su Chen said. "You're welcome, this has always been the opportunity I've been looking forward to. If you don't have this situation right now, you wouldn't let me control your body, would you?" Patlock said. "Sure enough, this is the reason why you invented this kind of spiritual origin technique but never told me? You have been waiting for the opportunity? What do you want?" Su Chen asked. "As you know, a real body. But to complete this step requires a lot of preparation. For example, first feel the process of encroachment." Su Chen understood: "So are you taking the opportunity to feel some changes in controlling my body? " To be precise, it is to feel resistance. I can feel that even if you take the initiative to lend me your body to use, your body is still repelling me, quite a powerful rejection. I am still not sure whether it is you. It's the same with others. But if you give me a puppet body that can move freely, I can do this research on my own." Patlock replied. "Well, I understand what you mean. So, you are tired of being a spectator and teacher, and you want to have your own laboratory, right?" "I am your best assistant choice, better than Gang Yan and death The shadows are suitable." "I admit it." Su Chen nodded: "Well, as I promised you, I will find a puppet for you." "Don't find it, there is it here." Patlock road. "What are you talking about?" Su Chen was stunned: "Did you find anything?" "Yes." Patlock replied, "Don't think I'm hiding from you. I just realized what this place was. " Hearing what Patlock said, Su Chen's eyes lit up: "You mean, this place is related to the ancient Austrian tribe?" "No, it's longer than that." Patlock replied, "It's related to the original beast." " What did you say?" Su Chen was shocked. "This is the burial place of an original beast." ———————— In the deep mine, Su Chen and Patlock walked slowly. Through the conversation with Patlock, Su Chen gradually understood that the bottom of the Pingtian City was once the burial place of an original beast. This original beast is called the Gold-eater. Like its name, the gold-eater, feeds on metal. Its body also contains a large amount of metal, and its surface layer has directly evolved into an extremely hard and varied metallic layer. Not to mention that in the era when the original beast was rampant, even now, if the original beast is still alive, standing there for people to fight, it is estimated that no one can break its defense. The death of the gold-eater is quite dramatic. After the great changes in the world, it fell into deep sleep, buried in the ground, as if dead. After a long time, no one knew of its existence. As the years passed, the Oise Empire rose. They attacked all over the continent, occupied territories, plundered resources, and strengthened themselves. Occasionally, there will be times when the iron plate is kicked. This happened 1,500 years before Patlock's death. A group of large arcanists came to the south-central region of the mainland and found a rare metal mine in a place called the Hurricane Plateau. These great arcane masters are mainly engaged in the research of the puppets. It happens that this rare metal can help them strengthen the puppets, so they live here and start mining for minerals. They dug very happily. And happiness leads to sadness. "I guess that the kind of mine they dug should be the skin of the gold-eating harrow." Su Chen said. "Yes. Not only that kind of ore is the cortex of the Gold-Eating Roe, if I am not wrong, the current Star Tan Gold and Moonstone veins should also be made of the bones and flesh of the Gold-Eating Roe. This The whole area’s mineral veins are actually gold-eaters.” Patlock sighed and replied: “My ignorant people only know how to mine, but they don’t know what they have gotten into. As the mine digs deeper and deeper. , That day, the gold-eater finally woke up. You can think of the ending..." Su Chen nodded: "Yes, I can think of it. I'm just curious. If this is the case, why can the news come out? How did the gold-eater die?" "Because of the puppet." Patlock said: "Oh. Although the magicians were killed by the gold-eater, the puppets they left behind played a big role at that time." "The puppet killed the gold-eater?" "No, don't get me wrong. No one can kill. The dead beasts, except for themselves. The puppets just survived... "In the past years, the Austro Empire has made countless powerful inventions, and puppets are one of them. In that era when countless colorful and great inventions were created, arcane puppets once became the mainstream of great arcanists, and all kinds of puppets appeared one after another, one after another. The great arcanists who had been swallowed by gold possessed a very special kind of puppet. Note that it is special rather than powerful. "Communication puppet? You mean a communication puppet survived that situation?" Su Chen was surprised. If Patlock said that some other puppet survived, it would be fine, but Patlock was talking about communication puppets. Patlock laughed and said: “Don’t underestimate the communication puppets. In the heyday of the Austrian people, the communication puppets were precisely one of the most advanced puppets. You must know that in the heyday of the Austrian Empire, we think we can invent everything. Things to achieve our needs. We make various creations and inventions. We are eager to fly to the sky and escape, and we also desire to be able to transmit and talk freely regardless of the obstacles of space. Before the emergence of transmission beyond distance, the first thing is beyond distance. Calling, let the world no longer be far away, let the world be close at hand." "Okay, don't be lyrical, just tell me what's going on?" "Australians have created a powerful communication ability, so that the communication distance of the communication puppet can be Far more than what you have now, this gives the Aoshi Empire a powerful exploration ability. If they want to learn more about the world and do not plan to take risks, it is as simple as sending a communication puppet over." Su Chen understood: "There are countless dangerous areas in this world." "Yes, this requires the communication puppet to have strong survivability and even resilience. That arcanist team has such a communication puppet." Patlock said: "This puppet survived tenaciously, and The news was passed on to the outside so that we could know all this." "A communication puppet? Has it survived? How did it live?" No matter how strong the puppet's survivability is, it can't be stronger than the original beast. How can it survive? "It gave up all the metal parts of its body. The Gold-eater only eats metal and only attacks the lives that are harmful to it. The communication puppet no longer conforms to the Gold-eater after giving up all its own metal components. He let go of the puppet as the target of the lion's attack. The gold-eating lion, after swallowing the arcanist who disturbed her sleep, returned to the underground long sleep, and the puppet was also taken in as the sky collapsed. And sent these messages underground." There is such an operation? Su Chen was also shocked. "It should be an order from a great arcanist." Patlock added. "How did the gold-eater died?" "It died of old age by itself, perhaps also related to its awakening this time. There are always some primitive beasts who just fell asleep and couldn't wake up again. And we passed that one. The puppet knows all this." "You mean that puppet has been operating?" Su Chen asked in surprise. "Yes, it has been in operation for one hundred and eighty-two years. It has lost its metal structure, lost its ability to move, and has stagnated all its energy consumption. It just sends a piece of surrounding information every time it passes. At first it was just a machine. The message was repeated until one day, a message was sent saying that the gold-eater is dying, and it will be completely over after three thousand years at most. That is its last news." Patlock said. "How did it know that the gold-eater is dying?" Su Chen was a little curious. In the past, the great arcanists did not notice the existence of the gold-eater, how did this communication puppet know about it? "Who knows?" Patlock spread his hands: "There are always some secrets that only those who have experienced it will understand. But at least I know that in the depths of this underground, there is a puppet that still survives under the majesty of the original beast, authentic …Ancient Arcane Puppet."
