Chapter 285 Irene Pro max
After cleaning up the dishes, Yu Sheng took Hu Li and Irene and went straight to the valley and arrived at the portal platform.
This time, Yu Sheng brought all three Ires.
This is because the little doll has to complete several major parts of the ritual herself, including the drawing of complex magic arrays, the investment of alchemical materials, and even part of the shaping work - with her current size, one body would definitely not be able to complete so many complex tasks.
This time, Yu Sheng and his team want to improve the "completeness" of the modeling as much as possible and try to avoid all parts that may cause defects.
"Still here?" Irene looked around and found the corner of the platform where she had shaped her body last time. "It's quite suitable."
"I'll build a wall first to prevent the candles from being blown out by the strong wind," Yu Sheng said as he began to concentrate. While controlling the "growth" of the platform, he muttered, "If I had known, I wouldn't have taken down the wall last time..."
"Rather than this, you should quickly build the 'temple' in your plan. You've long said that you're going to build a hub station here, but now there's only a door standing on the platform, without even a fence," Irene muttered. "I suggest you stop thinking about those epic building pictures you found on the Internet all day long. At least you can build a matchbox..."
Yu Sheng's forehead was covered with sweat, and he thought to himself, no wonder this little doll always looked at him with a strange expression when he searched for architectural pictures. It turned out that she had already guessed that he was going to use it as a reference for building pictures...
But even though he was sweating coldly, he didn't stop working.
Along with the sound of rocks rubbing against each other and slight vibrations coming from underfoot, the surrounding ground undulated like a living thing and began to grow rapidly.
He built a temporary wall to block the wind in the valley, and raised a platform of suitable size in the open space in the middle to serve as an alchemy platform. Then he asked Hu Li to place the necessary things on the platform one by one.
Ritual candles, sacred oils, spices, crystal dust, inks stolen from the Secret Service...
They are all the highest grade alchemical materials that can be found in the border area. Some of them are even treasures that cannot be bought on the market and are only available within the Secret Service.
It must be said that this high-end product is different from the stuff bought from the five-dollar store - the packaging is not even on the same level, some ritual spices are even packed in gold-plated boxes with a sealing effect, Yu Sheng remembered that the one he bought originally was in a plastic bottle...
Various high-end materials were lined up in front of the little puppet, and his eyes widened. When he turned his head to look at Yu Sheng, his eyes were full of amazement: "How much did you get?!"
"That's just the beginning. There's still a lot more to come," Yu Sheng said with a smug look on his face. "Besides, you were there when I was collecting materials last time. Why are you so surprised now?"
Irene blinked and scratched her hair belatedly: "It seems so."
Yu Sheng: “…”
He suddenly didn't care about the quality of the body made of these good materials. He was just curious whether these things could make Irene's brain work better...
At the same time, the little puppet had already begun drawing the basic part of the alchemy array on the platform.
Compared with the simple spell she taught Yu Sheng before, what she drew at this moment was obviously a more complex and mysterious high-level magic array - dazzling runes constituted every line in the spell, and all the spirit-infused areas had more complex and sophisticated amplifying, stabilizing, and connecting "nodes". There were four layers of basic circular lines, and the more complex they were towards the core area, the more dizzying it was to look at.
Two Irenes each held a dip pen and carefully drew on the platform with special ritual ink. Their faces were tense and they looked meticulous. The third Irene stood outside the magic circle, checking the integrity and symmetry of the entire array from a third-party perspective.
To be honest, her ability to have several bodies working simultaneously and having a third party perspective to monitor the overall situation is really suitable for this job. Yu Sheng was a little envious when he saw her.
He thought that if there were several people watching him while he was rubbing the house, it would be impossible for him to rub it like a public toilet every time...
Irene was quite comfortable drawing the spell, while the body in charge of overseeing the work was looking at the scene and taking the time to talk to Yu Sheng: "What kind of skeleton material will be used this time?"
Yu Sheng: "Actually, I think rebar is pretty good..."
He had just finished speaking, and before the little puppet started beeping, he immediately changed the subject: "But Hu Li just gave a new suggestion."
Supervisor Irene was startled and turned her head subconsciously.
Then she saw Hu Li raised his tail and shook it. With a loud clang, a huge lump of iron came out and was thrown on the ground.
The little puppet looked dumbfounded: "...What the hell?!"
Yu Sheng quickly spoke up: "Don't look like that. This is most likely the highest-grade material we can find. According to the Secret Service, this thing has the highest value in mysticism. It can contain and conduct spiritual power even better than a living person. The Secret Service can't find anything better than this in their own warehouse. Just think about it, they even have to buy it from us..."
Irene was stunned by Yu Sheng's words. She was about to be fooled, but suddenly she remembered something and reacted: "Wait a minute! This thing can produce machine souls! Even making a hammer can produce machine souls! If you make a skeleton for me, won't it be alive? Then I will consult with my own bones before doing anything."
"No," before Yu Sheng opened his mouth this time, Hu Li beside him shook his head and patiently explained, "Spirit Fox Black Iron is not an evil thing that will actively steal people's minds. It only shows its spirituality when making ordinary tools. But if it is used to shape bones and strengthen the body, it will only communicate with the owner's mind. In my hometown, there are some merchants from foreign planets who specialize in purchasing our black iron. Although they can't create tool spirits, they can make 'implants' specifically for use in the human body, and there has never been a problem."
"...How come your hometown has everything..." Irene muttered, but she finally put her doubts aside and looked at the big lump of iron next to Hu Li with some confusion, "But how are you going to make a skeleton out of this thing? Don't you have to build a forge or something to melt it first?"
Yu Sheng looked very proud: "Oh, this is easy. I will make a skeleton-shaped groove on the ground next to it, and then Hu Li will heat the iron and pour water into it..."
As he spoke, he walked to an open space at a safe distance from the alchemy platform. He raised his hand to guide for a moment, and a groove of a puppet skeleton began to wriggle on the ground, with the same size and proportions as a real person's skeleton. Then Hu Li came to the groove, raised her hand and waved it, pinched her fingers and chanted a spell, and the piece of "black iron" floated in front of her, and began to melt slowly under the fox fire...
Yu Sheng even introduced it to Irene: "I learned this technique from watching videos online about casting iron railings on the ground..."
Irene: “…”
The little doll's not-so-bright head always felt that the scene before it was a little weird.
Her two bodies were still lowering their heads to outline complex alchemical formulas. The mysterious runes and related alchemical knowledge all came from the ancient inheritance between the puppets.
On the other side, Hu Li was using a flame containing spiritual power to melt the black iron ingot. The flame and the spell were mysterious techniques and fox magic from a distant alien world.
The key to combining the two is that Yu Sheng dug a groove in the ground. This technology mainly comes from the craftsmanship of casting iron railings in a small workshop in the village...
It turns out pretty good after pouring - Yu Sheng dug the grooves quite evenly...
After a while, the fox fire subsided, and Hu Li put the remaining iron ingots aside temporarily. Then he took out several buckets of water from his tail and poured them on the ground. After it cooled down a little, he picked up the cast "skeleton" from the ground and placed it hot in the center of the alchemy circle that Irene had just drawn.
"The material for 'flesh and blood' is still the soil and rocks in the valley," Yu Sheng said, "This material is currently the most suitable for your requirements. We don't have any higher-level 'soil that wriggles like a living thing'."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"Okay, at least it's not lotus root powder," Irene sighed, "Then you do the basic shaping, and I'll help you with the details."
The essential oils and spices used in the ritual were thrown into the flames. The soil and rocks squirmed and wrapped around the surface of the skeleton that was filled with spiritual power. The body of the puppet began to take shape quickly. Yu Sheng used the blade of the "Artificial Saint" to cut a wound on his hand and poured his blood into the squirming and deformed soil and stones, completing the most critical part of the entire ritual.
Irene guided and perfected the details of the process to ensure that the new body could be infused with the soul in the most perfect state.
Spiritual steel is gradually awakening.
Life began to emerge from the soulless rocks and soil.
The rough surface of the grayish-white doll has the texture of skin.
Yu Sheng, Hu Li and Irene gathered around the alchemy table, watching the scene nervously and expectantly.
Its chest began to rise and fall.
It's trying to learn to breathe.
Its arms and legs were taking shape and trembling slightly.
It's waiting for someone to call its name...
“Erin—”
Yu Sheng spoke softly.
Then she was given life.
A gorgeous and elegant black Gothic dress covered the body of the new doll. The originally stiff and rough face instantly became smart and full of vitality. Irene's mind entered this new shell, and the next second, Yu Sheng saw -
The body began to shrink.
Very quickly, "swish", it increased from 1.67 meters to 1.2 meters, and then shrank from 1.2 meters to 66.6 centimeters.
He and Hu Li were both stunned: "......?"
On the alchemy platform, the newborn Irene Pro max (66.6cm) sat up blankly and looked at her other three bodies.
Two seconds later, I started crying "wow".
