Chapter 5 Challenging Gods and Demons
The boiling water in a huge boiler in the second iron house was boiling. Due to the addition of some special medicines, the water in the boiler showed a daunting yellow color. There were two small boilers next to the huge boiler. There was a stove standing between the two boilers, and the bellows of the stove were whizzing and whirring.
"Old Tie, stop sleeping, take out the gold from the boiler and show this little devil." Demley shook the blacksmith who was sleeping next to the big boiler.
He slept there like a black iron tower lying on his lying. The temperature of the boiler had been set to five hundred degrees, but he could sleep like a dead dog leaning against the boiler.
With Demley's irritable temper, he dared not yell at this blacksmith who was not interested in work, because he was Trubel, a first-class blacksmith, and had the highest-level blacksmith certificate.
The Blacksmith Association is an organization of blacksmiths on the Atlantis continent. It is composed of blacksmiths with superb skills. This organization has a long history. At first, it was to forge armor and rifles to meet the needs of knights on the mainland. Later, the number of swordsmen has grown day by day, the scale of the Blacksmith Association has become increasingly large, and the status of the Blacksmith Association has also increased. After nearly two hundred years of development, the management of the Blacksmith Association has been very mature. Blacksmith Association has strictly divided the levels, from the beginner-up fifth-level blacksmith who has matured skills to the top "golden hands", the Blacksmith Association has no less influence than the Chamber of Commerce in the mainland.
Grubel had a long beard that dragged to his lower abdomen. He opened his eyes and mumbled and got up from the ground.
"Little devil, you disturbed my dream again."
Roger laughed and said, "Drooling all over the floor, either dreaming of delicious food and wine or dreaming of the sexy beauty of the **? No matter which tavern is available, you can go to the tavern for free and spend one night."
"Cunning Little Devil",
He rolled up half of his sleeve and reached his forearm as thick as a bowl into the small boiler with bare hands.
Although this was not the first time he saw such a scene, Roger could not help but be shocked. Although the boiler had cooled down, the temperature was at least 300 degrees. He reached in with his bare hands and took out the thin metal sheet.
"Take it, take it",
Roger waved his hand: "Uncle, I'm not as thick as you, the metal piece you just took out can easily cause scalding."
Grubel picked up the bucket beside him and raised it to pour it down. The palm of his hand suddenly made a "hiss" sound. The metal plate cooled rapidly under the watering of cold water. Roger then took the black metal plate. When he tapped his fingers, he felt very hard, but the fingers alone could not achieve specific flexibility.
Roger turned the golden knife into his palm and shone it out of his palm: "Can I give it a try?"
"Of course," Demley and Grubel are both very confident in the new black metal. This is the crystallization of wisdom of the first-class blacksmith and genius mechanic who have the potential to become the "golden hand". Although it is not a finished product, it is definitely ahead of this era.
But Grubel's expression was a bit strange, because Roger's golden sword was also made by him.
"Ziz", Roger struck the metal sheet hard, and a shallow scratch appeared on it. Roger weighed it and said, "Uncle, this metal is very tough, this is not the level you should have."
This is Roger's mockery with hints.
He tried to curl it again, and he successfully twisted him into a lump ball, which took him a lot of effort, but when he let go of his hand, the metal piece returned to its original shape. This surprised Roger. Although such metal was not hard enough, it was already very tough, and the memory function could protect the human body well.
Demley sarcastically said: "Little Demon, there is no word 'toughness' in mechanics, and hardness and flexibility are difficult to make up for."
Blacksmith Grubel added: "It is true that it is difficult to make a metal both hard and flexible. Your goal is a puppet master. You should be aware of this, just as if you can't find a wood that is both hard and flexible. This new metal is not as hard as the gold knife I forged for you, but it is already very flexible and has the function of memory. "
"Also, little ghost, it is difficult to combine puppet masters with mechanics. Although wearing mechanical armor has increased defense, can you still control puppets flexibly?" Demlet said: "With your wisdom, you should not make such low-level mistakes."
This sentence is a slight irony, and the other is to agree with Roger's intelligence. There are very few people on this island who can get Darmley's intellectual recognition.
Roger put away the golden knife and said slowly: "I have calculated that as long as the weight of the mechanical armor is less than ten kilograms, it is fine, and there are two benefits, one, physical exercise, two, camouflage."
Disguise, for puppet masters, disguise is a very important thing, and now Roger can only silently hide his puppet master's goal in his heart.
So far, only Olis, Demley, Grubel and Roger herself, and apart from the four of them, even Miss Lolita who was very close to them was unknown.
There is a reason why the puppet master was explicitly banned by the mainland.
Among all professions, puppet masters are the most difficult. An excellent puppet master must learn to draw and design puppets. To have good knife skills to create puppets, and to control puppets with flexible fingers. In addition, puppet masters need to have rich knowledge in geography, biology, anatomy, sociology, mechanism and various other disciplines. The most important thing is that they must have a keen observation ability to observe subtleties. It is difficult for ordinary people to adapt to these requirements, both mind and physical strength, and it is even more difficult to find talents. What really makes puppet masters taboos is because of anatomy.
Before designing and making puppets, puppets need to learn anatomy and understand the body structure of a large number of animals and human bodies, so that they can design and create excellent puppets. After that, the puppet masters need to constantly explore the human body on the way of their training and growth, and explore the mystery of life, and aim to create a "puppet with souls". During the heyday of the puppet master, there were very limited human bodies that could be provided for dissection. Many puppet masters went astray. In order to obtain the bodies of humans and animals that could be dissected, they did not hesitate to hunt a large number of innocent people, and even once had a horrific tragedy like the "Death Town Incident".
The death town incident was just a fuse. The town that was massacred by the puppet masters had 12,000 corpses. Later, during the investigation of the Knights Templar and the Holy See, puppet masters in almost all places had similar murders and hiding corpses. This made the major families on the mainland, the Knights Templar and the Holy See thunder. They angrily negotiated with the puppet masters to stop this inhumane behavior, arrested most of the murderers, and issued wanted orders for all those who were on the run.
What is surprising is that their intervention angered the puppet masters. The puppet masters, which were not large in number, openly denied the authority of the Knights Templar and the Holy See. This action triggered a "small holy war" that lasted for three years. In these three years, the puppet masters with less than 100 people made the most elite and most powerful Knights Templar, which paid a heavy price of two thousand casualties. In battles of all sizes, the puppet masters' dexterity, strange mechanisms, various puppets and terrible abilities that could see people's hearts shocked the world. Since then, the Holy See explicitly prohibited the profession of puppet masters, and all books on puppet design and fingering practice were burned. Anyone who was found to practice controlling puppets would be hanged or burned to death. The Knights Templar also specially divided the twelfth team to find puppet masters who survived, and even the bodies would not be left behind once they were found.
This is why the puppet master was called a "tag" and a "devil's disciple". People say that puppet masters overestimate themselves and try to "challenge gods and demons" is a profession that should not exist. This is a puppet master.
