Chapter 619 - 566: Mass Production II
In the end, all the armors he brought were wrecked, and there was neither time nor energy to fully repair them.
The relentless attacks from the Demon Clan left him with the only choice, which was exactly what Jiang Yuebai was doing now.
Using the least and most suitable broken parts to maximize efficiency, continuing to delay time, and intercept the Demon Clan.
In such a situation, the most basic, simplest things were actually the most effective.
The Great Dao is simple, returning to the essence, that’s how it is.
At this point, Zhuge Shou already recognized Jiang Yuebai and was determined to bring her into the Zhuge Family. If she was willing to stay, they would definitely treat her with the utmost sincerity.
However, the assessment had just begun, and Zhuge Shou was still eagerly anticipating what surprises Jiang Yuebai could bring him.
In the valley, Fann Mingshan and Zhuge Ziyin, after being briefly shocked by Jiang Yuebai, did not forget the competition between them.
Fann Mingshan immediately withdrew his gaze, retracted the double crossbows of his Mountain Shattering Heavy Machine, and ran towards the dense forest outside the gorge to seize the initiative.
Zhuge Ziyin, seeing this, remained calm, splitting a thread of Divine Sense to control a mechanism to closely follow Fann Mingshan and obstruct his Mountain Shattering Heavy Machine.
At the same time, he used the remaining Divine Thought to control two other mechanisms to return to his side and continue assembling armor capable of long-lasting combat and adapting to various situations.
However, inexplicably, Zhuge Ziyin would occasionally glance at Jiang Yuebai, who seemed ordinary, yet sparked a strong sense of crisis in him.
Soon, in less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Zhuge Ziyin also assembled his Beast-Shaped Armor and charged out of the gorge in front of him.
This assessment aimed to showcase the Armored Master’s abilities, so all three of them could only stay in the valley and control armors to operate outside the valley.
At that moment, Fann Mingshan was also busy, continuing to collect parts to make new armors. He also had the Divine Separation Method but could only send out one to control the armor.
Zhuge Ziyin learned from his previous experience and did not compete with Fann Mingshan anymore, instead searching the mountain for broken armors on his own.
It seemed Jiang Yuebai had given him some inspiration. He also gathered many small essential parts, sat crossed-legged on the ground, controlling the armor outside the valley with one Divine Split while starting to manufacture.
"What is she doing now?"
The crowd outside expressed their confusion, seeing Jiang Yuebai scavenging around to find four fairly intact armor arms, spending time attaching them to a completely scrapped armor body.
She even went out of her way to remove the two legs and head of the armor, leaving only the torso.
The four arms were attached on either side, two facing forward and two facing backward.
Then Jiang Yuebai took a deep breath, her Divine Thought moved, and all four arms started moving simultaneously.
Meanwhile, the web on the gorge path dispersed, transforming back into Little Spiders, each with a ball of black fog in its abdomen.
Once back at Jiang Yuebai’s side, her main body, along with two strands of Divine Thought, controlled two pairs of hands simultaneously to rapidly modify the Little Spiders.
The modified Little Spiders became more agile, surprisingly beginning to sort junk piles around Jiang Yuebai without needing control.
As more modified Little Spiders were created, some sorted parts, others dismantled useless components, and some were responsible for transportation, all organized and well-divided in tasks.
Parts transported under the Four-Handed Armor quickly transformed into new Little Spiders, doubling their numbers, thus multiplying Jiang Yuebai’s efficiency as well.
During this, the second wave of demon creatures attacked from the gorge path in front of Jiang Yuebai. The working Little Spiders immediately returned to the gorge entrance, connecting back into a web and detonating a Great Array, turning the Demon Clan into crispy charred pieces.
Afterward, the Little Spiders dragged back more black fog balls, creating more autonomous Little Spiders.
Full automation!
Outside the Trial Tower, everyone was slightly agape, stunned into silence.
They were familiar with this, as there were many such small constructs in the inner city of the Zhuge Family, handling simple repetitive tasks to ease their lives.
However, these things had weak combat abilities and could not be used in battle methods.
There were also high-level automated constructs, but their creation and selection of Beast Souls were demanding, and they required long-term cultivation so that the Beast Souls retained some battle memory before they could be used in combat.
Jiang Yuebai’s setup was clearly not high-level automated constructs.
No one knew what Jiang Yuebai was doing by frantically producing these Little Spiders, but everyone was filled with anticipation.
Moh Baichun’s eyelid twitched as he watched the method he once taught Jiang Yuebai through a puppet small doll being used to the full extent.
Combining Beast Souls and Divine Mechanism Stones should have enabled simple puppets to execute simple repetitive commands.
Although these weren’t Beast Souls, those demon creatures also had core components similar to souls, and she managed to quickly convert and utilize those, furthermore she somehow modified them, making them move using demon souls without the need for Divine Mechanism Stones.
The demon creatures weren’t there to attack her; they were practically delivering ’materials’ to her, utilizing even the enemy.
This brat, pretty clever!
No one knew that in her childhood at the Yin Mountain Mine, Jiang Yuebai had been practicing how to make multi-functional puppets from scraps and limited materials due to lack of clothes and food.
Back then, even the puppets she placed in the Spiritual Field to scare off small beasts had eight arms, which could drive away little beasts and summon clouds and rain. Whenever she found a stone of the right shape, she had to bring it back to put to eight different uses.
Wasting was not in her vocabulary.
Later, to earn Spirit Stones, Jiang Yuebai produced no less than one hundred thousand farming puppets and mining puppets.
With the craftsmen of the Huaxi Valley Wood Workshop, skilled in the Puppetry Path, like Qii Yue, and with the continual improvements by the two Nascent Soul cultivators of the Puppetry Path in the Ten Thousand Laws Hall of the Heavenly Interence Sect, this path was simplified and enhanced to the utmost.
However, these small puppets could only perform simple tasks, using corresponding runes and arrays on their bodies to cast the simplest spells.
So she didn’t manufacture large quantities in her own Lotus Platform Cave Heaven, only leaving a portion of farming puppets in the Spiritual Field.
Now, with no other options, even though she only read books for three days, she could not possibly directly manufacture and repair the Zhuge Family’s armors, even if she was a genius.
Instead of attempting something uncertain, why not use what she was familiar with and have some fun!
