Chapter 486 Demolition of the Tower
Tianyou's reaction was long as Feng Wu expected. He sighed helplessly, and Feng Wu asked back, "If I brought you here directly before, what would you think?"
"It should be more surprising than now!" At this moment, Tianyou already understood Feng Wu's previous actions. Whether she really planned to rebel or had other ideas, anyone with a normal mind could not see such a Taoist puppet manufacturing center, right? So, Feng Wu didn't tell the truth before, but it was not so suspicious.
Seeing that Tianyou seemed to calm down, Feng Wu began to explain. However, she did not explain the reason directly, but asked back: "I told you before that my skills all come from a Taoist puppet I picked up, right?"
Tianyou nodded subconsciously, "I heard you say it."
Feng Wu raised his hand and showed Tianyou the square formations of Taoist soldiers and puppets behind him, and continued: "What you see now is the Taoist soldiers and puppets I picked up."
Tianyou looked at the Taoist puppet square formations again in surprise, and then asked in surprise: "Didn't you say there are only one of these?"
Feng Wu pointed to the automated assembly tower, "When I first discovered it, there was indeed only one, standing alone at the entrance of the tower. But just a few days ago, for some reason, the tower suddenly started and began to transport Taoist puppets outwards. At first I thought these were Taoist puppets sealed in the tower, but you also saw that the number could never be stored in advance."
Tianyou pointed to the slide above: "It's obvious that this thing is not stored, but is making Taoist puppets, right?"
Feng Wu nodded, "I also realized this and thought of various ways to stop producing Taoist puppets. But as you can see, I have no other way except for forcing destruction. However, this may be the only remaining machine in the entire Shenzhou Continent that can create Taoist puppets. Its value is unimaginable. I really can't bear to destroy it just like this."
After knowing that this was not Feng Wu's self-inflation, he planned to crazily explode the soldiers and build a machine empire, Tianyou finally relaxed.
He looked at the tower that was still creating Taoist puppets for a moment, and Tianyou said, "This is actually not a problem, right? This thing must require energy support to operate, and it is impossible to keep running. Just wait for it to stop by itself. Even if there is an automatic energy-gathering array inside, it can accumulate energy infinitely, and the raw materials should be limited. When the inventory is used up, it will not be able to create things even if it keeps running, right? Besides, even if it keeps running, you will not suffer any loss, right?"
"If this is the case, I won't be in a hurry!" Feng Wu sighed: "I have studied this tower before before. Although I did not find those materials at that time, I found the source of power for this tower. It is inserted into the lava below the island, as if it is using the temperature of the lava to drive itself. This is not bad, but the heat of the lava will become stones after being absorbed. In order to continuously obtain energy, the tower will automatically crush the condensed rocks, and as a result, it will continue to create hollows below the island. As a result, the bottom of the island will be hollowed out sooner or later, and the entire island will collapse and completely sink into the sea."
"Hey...this seems to be a problem!"
Feng Wu sighed again and said helplessly: "So I really have no choice. Let me leave it alone, not to mention this tower, even 80% of my island will not be able to save it. But if it is forcibly destroyed, I will not be able to bear it. It happened that I had a very happy conversation with you a few days ago. I knew that you were good at this path, and maybe there was a way to turn it off without damaging the tower. But you also saw the situation here. In order to be afraid that you would misunderstand, I did not tell you the truth, but just asked you to help study the Taoist puppet, and then specially copied the structure in the tower for you to study. But you are indeed good at this path, and you can see the original purpose of this tower by just the broken replicas! Now I have no reservations. If you blame me and refuse to help, I will never complain. It is because I am dishonest, no matter what choice you make."
After listening to Feng Wu's explanation, Tianyou's heart was completely settled. Although he had reservations, Tianyou could analyze that most of the things Feng Wu said were the truth. As for the hidden part... it was actually some issues of human relationships.
This can be said to be the secret of Wanbao Pavilion. Although Tianyou and Feng Wu can talk about it very well, they have not known each other for a long time. The so-called guardianship is necessary, Feng Wu naturally cannot let Tianyou contact the core secrets of Wanbao Pavilion. If it weren't for being discovered by Tianyou, if it weren't for Tianyou's discovery, it would have been a big deal. I believe Feng Wu would never let Tianyou see this tower. Unfortunately, he couldn't hide it from Tianyou, and he also hoped that Tianyou could help her and shut down the uncontrolled tower. Feng Wu could only bite the bullet and show the core secrets of Wanbao Pavilion to him.
After thinking through the causes and consequences, Tianyou doesn’t blame Feng Wu. Who can’t be selfish in life? At least if Tianyou has such a thing in his hands, he will definitely not show it to others easily. As for whether to help Feng Wu turn off this thing... then do you still need to ask? Such a precious research sample is right in front of you. How can you feel at ease if you don’t study it thoroughly?
"It's okay to help." Tianyou pointed to the Taoist puppet in front of him, "But these are you going to send me a few to the venue fee."
As soon as Tianyou agreed, Feng Wu's expression immediately stretched out. As for sending a few Taoist puppets... she would care about how many can Tianyou take away? So what if she gave away a thousand or eight hundred?
And... Tianyou didn't know about something, but Feng Wu knew, so she didn't care about these Taoist puppets at all. But this secret will definitely not be kept for long, because as long as Tianyou monitored the tower, he would find that these Taoist puppets were actually semi-finished products, and they could only be considered empty shells and had little value at all.
No matter what, it was true that Tianyou helped to stop this thing first, so Feng Wu immediately began to urge Tianyou to get busy.
Before, because he didn't want Tianyou to see this tower and wanted to hide it, he was obviously very anxious, but Feng Wu didn't dare to urge Tianyou. Even because he had to imitate the parts in the tower overnight, he wasted all night in vain yesterday. But now, Tianyou knew what he shouldn't know, so Feng Wu had nothing to hide. As soon as Tianyou agreed, she pulled Tianyou to the bottom of the tower and let him start working.
Originally, Tianyou planned to go for a meal at this time, but now that he knew that the tower in front of him might sink the island at any time, Tianyou naturally dared not delay it. Although even if the island really sinks, Tianyou was confident and safe to leave, the tower obviously could not be moved. So in order to study the techniques in this tower more, Tianyou didn’t care whether he was eating or not. Anyway, it would be no big deal to eat one or two less meals for the monk.
This tall tower is called a tower, but it is actually a vertical assembly line, and there is no access inside it. There are multiple feed ports on the top, and the raw materials enter the top of the tower for cutting and assembly, and then go down all the way down. By the bottom of the tower, the assembly has been completed and turned into a human-shaped Taoist puppet.
This entire assembly process requires many complicated equipment, and it is very simple to stop it from running. Just find a place to insert an iron bar into it and it can completely get stuck. But Feng Wu has a little research on machinery and has not done this before because she discovered that the power structure of the entire tower is connected together. Once a certain mechanism in the tower is stuck, it may cause the transmission system of the entire tower to collapse completely. The result is not much different from directly dismantling the tower.
Therefore, in order to ensure the integrity of the tower as much as possible, it is obviously undesirable to force it to be stuck.
After a brief observation of the way the tower body operated, Tianyou's first thing was to let Feng Wu make several special tracks, and then use these tracks to cut off the connection between the top of the tower and the storage warehouse. Although the storage warehouse is still constantly transporting raw materials outward, due to these tracks, all the materials will directly cross the tower body and slide to the ground around the tower body.
This change is very slight and does not affect the tower's own operation, but it is very important for subsequent research.
Because the structure of this tower is too tight, it is difficult to enter and observe the internal structure when it is working. Now the raw materials will not enter the interior, and the mechanical structure in the tower will only idle. This reveals many gaps, which makes it easier for Tianyou to enter and observe.
Of course, such minor changes will not solve the fundamental problem. Since the energy system in the tower is still working, it is still consuming the lava geothermal heat below the island. Even if the debut puppet will not be produced in the future, the crisis of this island still exists.
From the empty feed port, Tianyou drilled into the tower, and carefully moved down the gap, constantly observing the working methods of various mechanisms during the movement, and figured out the principle of their function. After observing it repeatedly for a whole afternoon, Tianyou finally took action again.
This time, instead of just making plug-in parts, we started to disassemble things.
Tianyou found a movement mechanism in the tower that was running at a relatively slow speed. After observing for a long time, he confirmed that the component could be removed. However, because the part was moving all the time, he had to jump up, follow it and remove it during the movement.
This process is actually quite dangerous, because you have to pay attention to the structural changes inside the machine and be careful not to get stuck by the machine. Fortunately, the monk's body control is extremely strong, and Tianyou himself belongs to the type with extremely developed motor nerves, so he took no effort to remove this part.
The disassembled parts were carefully handed out from the tower, and then because of a lack of parts, the space in the tower became more abundant. After the space was abundant, the mutual interference between mechanical equipment became less complicated, and Tianyou finally had room to play.
Several small parts were removed in one breath, and the space in the tower was further increased. After Tianyou finally began to attack the large structure.
After tossing until midnight, after removing hundreds of parts, most of the structures in the tower finally stopped operating. Now only six thick shafts on the side wall of the tower are constantly rotating. They are the powertrains of the mechanism in the tower. Before, all the mechanical movements in the tower were almost operated by the power transmitted by the rotation of these six pillars. However, the transmission gears they connected have been removed, and the six pillars without connection can only idling there and can no longer drive any equipment.
Without the mechanical structure that was in the way, Tianyou finally came down to the core structure at the bottom of the tower for the first time. This is the threat that truly threatened the island. Feng Wu and the others had not been able to reach this position before, so they had no idea how to start, so they had to invite Tianyou, a foreign aid.
In fact, at this point, the rest is simple.
What is really precious about this tower is its structure and the steps for making Taoist puppets. As for the power source below... Although the technology content is extremely high, it is not that valuable. After all, as long as the tower body is complete, driving the six pillars is not a problem at all. Whether it is driven by other magic arrays, or mechanical energy such as hydraulic or wind, even if you just install a handle and find a few people to push it up, it is not a problem.
Because I don’t know how long the hollow below the island can last, after the above connection structure was removed, Feng Wu no longer felt sorry for the dynamic structure below.
Tianyou, who obtained permission, directly used his unique skill, the Thunder Finger, to directly penetrate his spiritual power into the array diagram, and inversely impacted the spiritual network node, exploding one of the spiritual power hubs, causing the entire array diagram structure to collapse completely. The six main transmission shafts that were still slowly rotating in the last second stopped rotating the next second. In terms of the mobility of lava, as long as the island will not collapse, there should be no problems in the future. Of course, if Feng Wu's tower wants to be used again, it must be redesigned. At least the following power system is useless now.
"Done."
Tianyou, who finally shut down the power system at the bottom of the tower, carefully drilled out of the mechanical parts densely covered in the tower. When he looked up, he found Feng Wu was covering his mouth and laughing. Realizing something, he quickly looked down and looked at him, but he could only smile bitterly.
Although this tower is mysterious equipment and is different from modern machinery. It does not use lubricating oil or other things, dust is inevitable. Tianyou has been drilling around here all day, and the situation on his body can be imagined. It was nothing but a little dust, but just drilled into the power device below, and the high temperature transmitted by the tower power device evaporated out of sweat. Now the sweat is mixed with dust, and Tianyou wiped it with his hands...
"Ah hahaha..." Hu Qingxuan and Qi Xiaomei knew how to be reserved. Although their shoulders were shaking, they still covered their mouths and tried hard not to laugh. But Hu Niu didn't have so much scruples, and pointed directly at Tianyou and almost rolled around with a smile.
"Puff..." Feng Wu, who was paying attention to etiquette and trying hard to hold it in, was also infected by Hu Niu and the others, but in the end he couldn't hold it in and laughed out loud.
Tianyou himself is not the kind of person who cares about his image, so he is not angry. After wiping the plaster on his hands, his attention moved to the Taoist puppets not far away.
Feng Wu, who found that Tianyou's eyes were changing, finally stopped laughing and began to think about how to explain his reward to Tianyou.
Although Tianyou had previously designated the important Taoist soldiers and puppets as rewards, Feng Wu knew that those appearances could not be rewarded at all because they had no value at all.
Although there are at least 20,000 Taoist puppets piled up here with pits and valleys, in fact, all Taoist puppets here are defective.
Although the tower looks intact on the surface, it is a ruin from many years ago. In fact, it has been corroded and damaged inside. Although it can still assemble the debut soldiers puppets, because all the components have suffered varying degrees of loss, the assembled Taoist soldiers puppets are also unqualified. There is no problem that can barely stand there. Once you really want to move, you may be disbanded if you can't go far.
Moreover, the more serious thing about structural problems is that the most important array plate in the tower has been completely damaged.
This array board should be a group of things similar to lithography machines. Of course, it is not used to engrave circuit boards, but a spiritual array specially used to make psychic arrays. Its function is to engrave a set of special psychic arrays on the base plate of the array map prepared for distress. After completion, the base plate of the array map will become the control core of the Taoist soldier puppet after being stacked and packaged. It will provide power for the Taoist soldier puppet and play the role of controlling the movement of the Taoist soldier puppet.
However, because the above structures are seriously damaged, although the structure in the tower seems to be still running, it is actually impossible to engrave and print the array diagram bottom plate with a new magic array. Therefore, the so-called core encapsulated into the bodies of these Taoist soldiers puppets is actually just a blank array diagram bottom plate.
This situation is like assembling a computer with only a blank hard disk and not a system, which is even worse than a computer without an operating system. At least even if the computer does not have an operating system, it can at least complete the self-check of the computer based on the BOSS information. But these Taoist puppets are even worse. They are even empty in the BOSS information and cannot even boot up.
If this is a robot, even if there is no computer installed, at least the mechanical structure is worth learning from. But these are Taoist soldiers puppets, which are solid even in their joints and are driven by internally embedded spiritual power pipes, while the control center of these pipes is blank. Such Taoist soldiers puppets are probably similar to statues. Apart from being able to recycle some materials, they are probably worthless.
Feng Wu had known this before, so she was a little embarrassed now.
"That... you can change the requirements, whether it is magic weapons, materials or money, as long as I have them in Wanbao Pavilion, you can bring them up."
Chapter completed!
