Chapter 2957 Melting Colossus
I feel that the threshold of the balance society is too high, and I am afraid that it is the opposite. In fact, Professor Moriarty and Elder Samuel probably created such a special balance society in order to attract high-level undead creatures such as liches and death knights. agency idea.
The undead are the product of violating nature. The soul is distorted by negative energy and often becomes evil and crazy.
Only a very small number of undead creatures can preserve their sanity, restrain their hatred for life, and act according to the moral principles of life. However, the negative energy they carry will still erode the surrounding creatures, and they will inevitably be discriminated against or even expelled in the society of living people. Forced to go to extremes and become an accomplice of evil forces.
With the relatively decent organization of the Balance Society, undead creatures with good intentions can get a place to live, and it can be considered as a contribution to world peace.
Joan wasn't sure if he was over-interpreting, but he hoped that Moriarty's mentor really had such a broad mind and lofty ideals.
In the letter to Professor Moriarty, Joan first thanked the mentor for his kindness, and then admitted that although he has no intention of joining the "Tianping Club" at present, he sincerely wishes that the mentor can practice his ideals.
"Our world is like a ship drifting alone in the raging sea, carrying countless living beings including human beings, and also carrying the sleepless dead."
"All kinds of extreme forces are like raging winds and raging waves, trying to bury this lonely boat in the sea. I hope that the balance will become a ballast stone at the bottom of the boat and keep our world from overturning."
"If necessary, my dear mentor, I am happy to provide assistance to the cause of the Libra Association within my capacity."
After replying to the letter, Qiao An felt a little relieved, and was about to continue studying the newly transcribed spells when the air in front of him suddenly spun rapidly, forming a small golden whirlwind.
Joan raised his hand to touch the golden whirlwind, and Slude's voice came from the eye of the wind.
"Joan, do you still want that big pile of ice cubes you left in the woods? If it's convenient, come over and help clean it up. It would be even better if you can try to repair it!"
After thinking for a while, Joan realized that what Slude was talking about was the "Ice Colossus" whose head was chopped off by Tracys with a black ax in the battle last night and abandoned in the forest.
"The Ice Barrier Colossus is seriously damaged, but it should still be repaired. Wait a minute, I'll go and have a look right away."
Joan replied with the "wind spell" sent by Slude, put away the spell book on the table, and went out to the woods.
The forest where the battle took place yesterday was severely damaged. Slude was instructing his subordinates to clean up the scene, removing broken branches and broken leaves. The large ice crystals that had peeled off from the Ice Barrier Colossus were gathered into a pile, the most conspicuous of which was the one that was destroyed. The ice-plastic head cut off by the black ax glistened in the morning sun.
"Joan, come and see, the head of the Ice Colossus is about to melt, can you save it?" Slude looked eager, as if he was rescuing his comrades.
Joan looked at the huge ice sculpture head and found signs of melting. It seemed that after the head was separated from the torso, the magic attached to it had been released.
In fact, not only the head was melting, but the scarred body of the Ice Barrier Colossus was also melting under the sun, and a puddle of water formed under its feet.
At first, Joan thought that the colossus was fatally wounded, and the mythical spirit was separated from the body, leaving only an empty frame, so it would be very troublesome to repair. It was almost time-consuming and labor-intensive to rebuild a colossus, and it also required a lot of money .
After a little inspection, the expression on his face changed from serious to relaxed, and he smiled and said to Sluder: "The head of the Colossus is seriously damaged, but fortunately, the built-in magic sensor and detector can work normally, as for the Colossus itself , it’s just in a dormant state, so it’s not a big problem.”
Hearing what he said, Slude breathed a sigh of relief, his nervous nerves eased, but he still asked a little worried: "Since the Colossus is not seriously injured, why is it sweating all over? Leave it alone, will it Completely melted into a pool of water?"
"Sweating all over...you really know how to draw metaphors."
Joan was amused by her, and patiently explained while holding back a smile.
"During the battle yesterday afternoon, the Ice Barrier Colossus was forcibly occupied by me, and its mythical spirit lost control of its body."
"When I lifted the 'Construct Fit Art', it stands to reason that the spirit spirit would take over the control of the giant statue again, but the ice giant statue not only had its head cut off, but also suffered the impact of overload, plus some kind of power that I still have. Uncertain unexpected conditions caused the construction circuit to fail, and the spirit could not activate the colossus normally, and was forced to fall into a dormant state."
"For example, it's like a sailboat accidentally ran aground in the shallows. Even if the hull and sails are intact, why can't they just lie on the beach and bask in the sun without being able to move?"
Slude listened carefully, and took out a pencil and a small notebook from his pocket to record the main points of Joan's speech, as if taking notes in class.
"Slude, I remember that you took basic structural studies at Collasberg University, and it is said that your grades are very good?"
"I chose that course at first because I just wanted to learn more about construction and understand the structure of the mechanical armor in depth. If the mechanical armor breaks down, at least I can repair it myself."
A rare shyness and embarrassment appeared on the pretty face of the female knight, which was extremely bright and moving.
"I got full marks in both the theoretical examination and practical operation of basic structural science. I have personally disassembled and repaired no less than ten steel cavalry units, and I have also dismantled three wing cavalry units. The instructors all praised me for being very talented in construction."
"It's a pity that I'm not a mage. I can only be a repairman after learning this basic course. The follow-up advanced courses involve designing and manufacturing constructs. If I don't master the corresponding spells, I can't learn anything at all..."
"At first, I thought my technology was pretty good. Even if I couldn't design and manufacture a colossus by myself, repairing a damaged colossus wouldn't be much more difficult than repairing mechanical armor, right?"
"Actually, before you came here, I tried to repair the Ice Colossus by myself, but... I'm sorry, I messed up."
Slude sighed, turned his head to look at the broken colossus, and finally couldn't help but tell the truth.
"Joan, in fact, before I started repairing, the torso of the Colossus didn't show signs of melting. Later, for some reason, the more I repaired it, the more problems it caused. The original cold body of the Colossus actually heated up, and then I started sweating... ...This should be the 'unexpected situation' you just mentioned?"
Hearing her truthful confession, Qiao An almost burst out laughing.
Well, finally solved the case!
"I just find it strange, how could the Ice Colossus turn off the "Ice Master" so well? Doesn't this mean that people who can't swim lose their life jackets in the sea?"
"It turned out that you manually cut off the magic circuit. No wonder the poor colossus was melted by the sun."
