The team members raised their guns, aiming around and protecting Kent in the middle of the team.
Kent took out a foam gun from the alchemy stone and sprayed grey expanding foam towards the hole.
The foam moved around the edges of the hole, filling it in layer by layer, and soon blocked off the access to the fourth underground level.
“Thump thump thump…” Kent crouched down, tapping the hardened foam with his knuckles, then said:
“The hardness of this layer of foam is the same as that of the floor. We can stand on it without any problem, but it will only last for half a month. When we get back to the ground level, I’ll report to the company and let them send someone to repair the floor.
“Now listen up everyone. Ray Lee and I will keep guard, you all search the ground level and gather all the alchemy parts of the mechanical spider. Leave the parts that fell to the fourth underground level, so we don’t run into any illegal alchemists while collecting them.”
The team members put down their firearms, strapped them to their backs, and crouched down to search the floor.
Noland Lee held his short-barreled rifle, scanning his eyes over the alchemy parts that the team members picked up from the ground, and quietly cast
deconstruction.
[System Message: ]
[You are about to apply Deconstruction on the “sliding sleeve”.]
[Based on your knowledge reserves and related skill levels, the energy points required for this deconstruction have been reduced to 35.]
[You are about to apply Deconstruction on the “steering universal joint”…] [You are about to apply Deconstruction on the “four-phase energy conversion
unit”…J
The energy points needed to deconstruct alchemy parts varied from tens to hundreds.
A thought came to Noland Lee, sparking a burst of inspiration. He recalled an experience from before he crossed into this world.
When he was a kid, he was envious that others could play with toy guns that shot bullets.
Being penniless, he could only watch others play.
Once, when he was freeloading and reading books in a bookstore, he found a book named “Construction and Principles of Automatic Weapons”.
He followed the diagrams and knowledge in the book, using cardboard, a stapler, glue, and springs, to make a few passable imitation paper shell guns.
Given time and access to machinery, he could have upgraded the paper to metal, and the glue to welding, to create something brilliant.
Of course, it was just a fantasy.
These paper shell guns, which held his childhood memories, were lost after many times of moving houses.
But the experience of chewing on the tough knowledge and making paper shell guns by hand was deeply etched in his mind.
Now, seeing the parts inside the mechanical spider, an idea popped up in Noland Lee’s mind:
Could he mimic the parts inside this mechanical spider and manually make a cheap alchemical construct?
Noland Lee’s eyebrows rose, and his mind opened up.
In fact, he didn’t have to be obsessed with deconstructing the entire mechanical spider. He could start with individual parts, breaking down the big problem into many smaller ones and solve them one by one.
This process was just like when he was self-learning “Construction and Principles of Automatic Weapons”.
No, it can’t be said to be exactly the same.
When he was self-learning that book, Noland Lee could understand the text and read it smoothly.
However, now, he didn’t even have the ability to open “Supreme Computational Power”, let alone gotten any books related to alchemical constructs.
To put it this way, he didn’t even know the specific terms needed to manufacture the “Supreme Computational Power” alchemy suit and alchemical construct, let alone core content like alchemy runes and alchemy formulas.
Noland Lee’s thoughts raced, looking for a breakthrough in the problem.
“Let me think…
“Alchemical constructs can be seen as robots in electronic information civilization.
“Sensors, controllers, motors, these three things are the core components of a robot.
“When applied to alchemical constructs:
“The sensor responsible for collecting external environmental information can be replaced by a ‘Soul Link’. Also, the function of the controller can be achieved by a ‘Soul Link’.
“The central problem I need to solve is how to manufacture the power system and transmission system that alchemical constructs need, which correspond to the motors and transmission parts of a robot. As for where to find the motor and transmission parts…”
Noland Lee looked at the alchemy parts on the ground and a thunderbolt struck through his mind!
“The answer is right in front of me!
“What I really need to do now, and only have to do, is to copy the transmission system designed by the Alchemy Academy and install it in my homemade robot. After all, I don’t have the time to delve deeply into the dreary subject of mechanical engineering and design a mechanical structure with flexible joints and free movement.
“If everything goes according to plan, in the end, I will have a unique product that combines both alchemy civilization and death-type magic abilities.
“It can use both elemental energy and soul energy. Considering soul energy is too precious, providing it energy with an alchemy array would be better. In this way, its power system has a solution.
“Its transmission system comes from the alchemical constructs designed by the Alchemy Academy, and the controller and sensors are realized by a ‘Soul Link’.
“Although it feels like it’s made up of odds and ends, this thing should be usable!
“All I need to do is find a harder metal armor plate and more powerful firearms and ammunition to enhance the combat capabilities of the homemade construct. This is certainly more convenient than the ‘Enslavement of Deceased’ that focuses on the quality of corpses. Moreover, the homemade construct doesn’t conflict with the ‘Enslavement of Deceased’, so it’s like I have a new ace up my sleeve.
“Damn… you’re impressive, Noland Lee.. Only you could come up with such a wild idea!”
