The Lord of Ashes

Chapter 963 Upgrading the Puppet

The old man's name is Piton, and he is a stubborn old man who is not easy to get along with.

Thain joined this heavy industry laboratory to learn.

However, the purpose of absorbing Thain into the Heavy Industry Laboratory and Old Man Piton was definitely not to teach him knowledge in vain, but to squeeze Thain's alchemy ability.

In particular, Thain did not sign a long-term contract with the Heavy Industry Laboratory and was typically a "temporary worker."

Under this premise, how could it be possible to leave Thain too much time to study.

Every year, a large number of magicians from the wizarding world visit the City in the Sky. However, the preciousness of arcane points and the mandatory consumption of one point every day make it difficult for low-level magicians to stay here for a long time.

Also, if every magician could stay in the Sky City for a long time without restraint, even if this floating city is extremely huge, it would have been crowded long ago.

‎​​‎​‏‎‏​‎‏​‏‏‏There are quite a few spellcasters in the wizarding world!

Every year, countless alchemists, pharmacists, array masters and other magicians with special talents are recruited by the major laboratories in the Sky City.

The vast majority of them are "temporary workers" like Thain.

Only those who are true geniuses are also magicians who are willing to study and grow in the Sky City.

Only then will they be signed into long-term contracts by major laboratories and focus on training.

At this time, Piton, who was leading Thain in the heavy industry laboratory, was a real genius, and Thain had to admit it.

The bald old man's magic and combat accomplishments may not be very good, but in the field of alchemy, the other party's achievements have definitely surpassed Thain.

The bald old man Piton only serves as an assistant in the heavy industry laboratory.

There are also main alchemists, deputy alchemists, etc. above him, as well as designers, maintenance engineers, inspectors and even appearance stylists.

The heavy industry laboratory that Thain joined is, after all, a large laboratory that mainly exports and builds a new generation of space fortresses.

A war platform like the Space Fortress cannot be built by a single magician with his own strength.

What it needs more is the wisdom of the cluster!

Staying under Piton, although he was often ordered to do this and that by this balding old man, Thain really learned a lot over a period of time.

This is a mutually beneficial and fair employment model.

Thain gained knowledge during his short-term study in the Heavy Industry Laboratory, and the Heavy Industry Laboratory and Old Man Piton were equivalent to having a free third-level alchemist assistant. Not to mention a third-level alchemist like Thain, according to old man Piton's boast to him one time, he had even commanded several demigod-level alchemists.

"Then have you ever commanded a fourth-level alchemist?" Thain asked casually in his spare time with some teasing.

Old Man Piton's nose turned red from holding it back. He waved the alchemy wrench in his hand and lectured Dazain: "Have you finished checking the energy circuit I asked you to check just now? Once you've finished checking, go and measure the magic conductivity of No. 2 muzzle for me. !”

Old Man Piton has a bad temper, but overall he treats people fairly sincerely.

In some areas of alchemical mysteries, the old man did not hide them. As long as Thain asked, he would mostly answer.

Of course, the premise is that Thain has completed the experimental tasks required by Old Man Piton.

Thane himself is not a person who particularly values ​​​​levels and likes to use his power to overwhelm others.

‎​​‎​‏‎‏​‎‏​‏‏‏The experience of being a black magic apprentice has taught Thane to fear the strong.

In the field of alchemy, Old Man Piton is a strong man in Thain's eyes.

Although Old Man Piton is mainly responsible for the research and development of large-scale elemental energy weapons, the functional areas specifically divided by the old man are not the main or secondary guns of the space fortress, but the main guns of the war airship.

The war airship of the wizard civilization is said to be able to rival third-level creatures.

This is still an ordinary type of war airship.

If it were that special type of war airship, it would be more powerful and have more functions.

Of course, war airships, like space fortresses, are just magical alchemy creations and tools.

It cannot be measured as a real third-level or fourth-level creature.

However, from an unbiased perspective, coupled with the actual data fed back from previous plane wars, the role of the war airship on the battlefield is indeed no less than that of a third-level great magician.

Although Thain is an alchemist, he does not intend to build a space fortress by himself.

That's nonsense!

A space fortress cannot be completed by one person, and even if Thane leads the development and design of a space fortress, will he still have the energy to study other truths and mysteries?

Old Man Piton has a level in the field of alchemy that impressed Thain, but his level is stuck at level two. There is little hope of being promoted to level three in the future because he spends too much time in the field of alchemy. Research.

The same goes for Thane's previous mentor, Moshedo.

At best, Thane will only participate in the design of part of the future space fortress. Most of the others will definitely have to be outsourced to the heavy industry laboratories of Sky City or Steel City.

Or just make do with it when the time comes. Like Lu Lianman, it wouldn't be a bad idea to buy the latest model of the standard space fortress from the wizard civilization.

In addition to learning and mastering a lot of advanced energy weapon knowledge under Piton, Sean's biggest gain was that he upgraded Yuli's constructed puppet with the help of old man Piton.

"Ten thousand magic coins?"

"You seem to have just been promoted to level three? You are really willing to spend money on this slave creature!"

In the heavy metal warehouse full of pungent smells, Piton, wearing a protective suit full of black stains, looked at Sean with squinting eyes.

Everyone has a price. If you can't impress him, it only means that you don't pay enough.

Ten thousand magic coins are the price Sean asked Piton to help upgrade Yuli's constructed puppet.

‎​​‎‎‏‎‎‎‎‎‎‏‎‎ Under normal circumstances, a second-level magician who survives a plane war and works hard can only gain one or two thousand magic coins at most.

Considering that Sean has just been promoted to level three, these ten thousand magic coins are Sean's entire fortune in Piton's mind.

[A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old version of the book-chasing artifact, and the source-changing app that old bookworms are using.]

Ten thousand magic coins, this money is enough to go to the Wizard Alliance and find a weak third-level slave creature.

"Yuli has been with me for many years. She comes from the Nesser civilization. In addition to practicing to improve her mental strength, her external mecha is also a great blessing."

"Although I have helped Yuli improve her mecha many times, I am not an expert in this area after all, so I still want to ask you to help me this time." Sean said with a smile, and very freely lit a purple thorn cigar produced in the world of thunder and fire for old man Piton.

The flames bursting from Sean's fingers and the spicy aftereffects of the purple thorn cigar made old man Piton squint his eyes comfortably.

Being served by a third-level great magician like this, the old man's vanity was also greatly satisfied.

He flicked the butt of his cigar, and said with three parts of contempt and seven parts of pride: "I'm not saying anything bad about you. Your alchemy level is good for making common magic props such as magic wands and magic robes, but if it involves mechas and large-scale war equipment, you are a layman!"

"Let's not talk about the long-term, the weapon system of the puppet constructed by you, a little slave girl, has a big problem in my eyes!"

"Give me the money, I'll take the job." Old man Piton blew out a smoke ring that was the same as his hairstyle and said to Sean.

---------

It's been a while since I updated five times, and I can't stand it anymore. There are only four updates today.

Brothers, do you have two monthly tickets to reward? If so, I'll see if I can give you another one tomorrow.
