The three territorial stewards of different races obeyed Ron's orders and led him into a large house suitable for research.
There are many instruments here, mostly tools made by dwarves, such as dwarven hammers, sharpening blades, and so on.
Such a house layout is truly professional.
Nika has a good eye for people; Ron was right to delegate authority. The three new managers are busy making preparations, while Ron also channeled his spiritual power into his storage space.
Which phantom stone should I get?
I can't tell which mechanical knowledge I'll learn more about, so I'll just leave it to fate.
Ron decided on the Phantom Stone and waited a while longer. Finally, the three stewards were ready to take notes.
Soulstones are slightly less valuable than Phantom Stones.
Soulstones are mostly used for recording spells and their transmission. In the research and development department, once soulstones are available, the staff will also try to improve the soulstone golems of the current era.
Even if you're not a puppeteer, you can still do basic puppet development. Then, students who aspire to become puppeteers will have puppets to use.
The R&D department also needs to develop various magical devices according to the requirements of the Magic and Martial Arts University.
The auxiliary magic circle for the Soul Stone was set up. The elf steward, Della, activated the Soul Stone to record the magic, and the Soul Stone floated and glowed.
Ron gestured to Rita on the other side to help him take a note.
Last time, I asked Rita for help, and as a result, Rita got the chance to evolve. If I help her again, she can evolve again. Of course, this is just wishful thinking.
The angelic secretaries and the stewards of the territories receive multiple inheritances.
Ron took out the Phantom Stone and first set up a phantom auxiliary magic circle on the ground, a minor magic that people had improved after obtaining it from the ruins.
Gradually, the Phantom Stone also rose into the air, reaching the same height as the Soul Stone on the other side.
Different high-magic items, when activated, the Soul Stone is like pure divine soul energy, appearing colorless, while the Illusion Stone encompasses all of space and time, radiating a beautiful seven-colored elemental light…
After the initial burst of light, the seven colors gradually faded, leaving only the time-space illusion captured back then.
At that time, Ron activated the special phantom stone as soon as he touched it. It must have been because that person's understanding of space and time was too strong that he had engraved the relevant mechanism array inside the phantom stone.
Now, such a phantom stone needs to be activated with a small spell…
Phantom, appear!
The three stewards beside them looked on in surprise, while Vivian and Xiaota were also startled by the sudden illusion of time and space, as if they were in that era.
A dreamlike and incredible mystery of time and space, like a miracle.
Ron and Rita, on the other hand, remained quite calm.
That's all there is to it. The little tower fairy is too young and lacks self-control.
Such a mirage... this... is actually the classroom from back then...
The City of Magical Machines, the highest institution of magical machines!
In the illusory scene, the magical teacher was explaining magical knowledge to the younger generation in a simple and easy-to-understand way...
“...proportion Bala…”
I can't understand classical Chinese!
Like Ron, Little Tower, Vivian, and the three R&D managers couldn't understand what the people from back then were saying.
At this moment, Ron looked at Rita, who was recording everything about the phantom as ordered by the lord. The four-winged angel's soul power made it quite easy.
And ancient sayings!
Rita seemed to be able to understand some of what she was saying.
Ron could only guess for now and would ask later. There were still three managers here, so there was no rush.
Although the three stewards, like Ron, couldn't understand it, they knew that the peculiar classroom had appeared, and that it was unique.
Could it be a mirage of ruins?
And what are they saying?
Della, the elven, was deep in thought, as were the other human and dwarf stewards.
Until the Phantom Mechanic teacher's instruction reached the practical stage, the teacher led the students out of the classroom, and the phantom moved accordingly.
The magic-wielding teacher suddenly took out a magic device from his storage space, the technology of which was far ahead of its time.
The magic teacher suddenly produced a magic device that looked like a man as tall as a person.
The man began explaining the magical mechanical automaton, focusing on the joint patterns on its joints.
After a while, suddenly, as they were talking, the magic machine moved.
Ron shouted, "Pay attention! Observe with your mental power!"
Remind the elementalists present to activate their elemental vision.
Yes, I've met you.
A magical illusion of space and time, the fine lines of elemental control, and beyond the Elemental Vision, these lines of elemental control become even clearer.
Perhaps in the real scene back then, even without Elemental Vision, one could clearly see the fine control lines with the naked eye. However, the phantom scene is still not clear enough. At least, people today can see the details.
As Ron followed the explanation from the Phantom Mechanic teacher, he roughly understood that this was a mechanic combat class. Sure enough, the mechanic teacher had the two students fight each other again.
The students from that year immediately applied their teacher's guidance, meticulously controlling the array patterns and the corresponding key points of the auxiliary spells the teacher had mentioned.
When and how should the combat mech partners be deployed, and how should the trainees carefully control the mech joints?
A brilliant tutorial on magic and machinery from back then.
After a long, long time, one phantom stone was released.
The phantom stone began to slowly slide down from the sky.
The three stewards were knowledgeable about puppets, and they noticed many suspicious points, including the use of the soul stone!
Aren't puppeteers a kind of alternative tamer?
The souls of ferocious beasts are tamed, locked in soul stones, and placed on metal puppets. Puppet masters then use secret methods to train the puppets in ordinary times, and use them in wartime.
It feels like puppeteers in the current era have far fewer unnecessary concerns compared to summoners, but they need to prepare much more beforehand.
Unlike ordinary summoners who have to consider the will of the summoned creatures and whose summons are driven by a mental contract, puppeteers only need to control puppets...
The mechanical power puppet, yet like a real puppet, uses fine control lines to control the joint patterns, truly resembling an extension of a human arm.
The current development of puppetry aims to evolve into magical puppetry, simply because the upfront cost of taming the souls of ferocious beasts is too high.
The puppeteers also dreamed that, as the ruins recorded, the puppets were their alter egos...
The three managers were well aware of the scene before them and what would happen if the puppeteers found out!
The insane power of mechanics!
Controlling magical machines in combat is only one aspect; the true secret of magical machine studies lies in their autonomous evolution, which is also the difference between magical machine studies and simple puppetry.
The later achievements of the mechanical AI, their autonomous evolution is different from that of the Soul Stone Golem. The mechanical AI has the concept of mechanical computing power. It is a very sophisticated field of AI knowledge, which is the result of a civilization that has been developing for hundreds or thousands of years or even tens of thousands of years.
The illusion is over, but the reactions of those who witnessed it at the scene were somewhat exaggerated.
Even the usually calm elven steward became anxious: "My lord, do you have any more phantom images of related ruins?"
The dwarf steward was very direct; he picked up a hammer and only wanted to start forging iron now, creating a phantom-like metal puppet.
Jim, the human overseer, seemed to have caught a whiff of magic crystals. His eyes gleamed with a burning fervor as he looked at Lord Ron: 'If my Sandy Territory has another puppet like this, then my Sandy Territory…'
Ron concluded, referring to the human research manager who was prone to self-absorption and the other two managers who were highly proactive.
Ron simply smiled and replied to the elf steward, "There will still be related ruins and phantoms in the future, and remember, these are not the puppets you might be thinking of, but magical machines, remnants of the magical machine kingdom of the previous civilization."
Ron then spent time confirming that the records were correct. The array patterns that appeared in the phantom were recorded by the elf steward, and the ancient information was then entered into the soul stone.
"Okay, let's do it again, get ready."
This time, Phantom has arrived at the Magic Machine Manufacturing Workshop again!
Everything inside was incredibly appealing to Kent, the dwarf manager. This was truly fully automated production, and its workshop-style manufacturing process was perhaps even more complex than that of the current high-end magic crystal vehicles.
Kent, a dwarf, watched intently.
The beauty of machinery!!! ＼(◎o◎)／!
On the contrary, this illusion was not very attractive to the elves, because there were no array patterns or spell teachings that reflected the beauty of natural laws at this time.
Jim, the human overseer, was completely bewildered, already calculating his upcoming quarterly rewards: "Remember, remember, remember everything! It's all magic crystals, all magic crystals..."
