Chapter 1126: Chapter 909: The Bronze Guardian God Is a Machine Spirit_2

Tifa asked, "Are you trying to imitate the Empire warship’s power?"

Chifanda: "Not even close!"

Tifa was stunned: "The difficulty of the Empire’s technology lies not in the structure, but in the materials!"

Chifanda laughed: "As for the materials, you can visit Tissina’s Gem Workshop, which is right next door."

Ah, so this means Cui’s jewelry store has also moved into the cave.

The Siren laughed, "Then please visit Cui’s workshop."

After passing through a spacious corridor and entering a large door, a shimmering crystal scene unfolded before them. It was indeed a warehouse full of crystals, the kind brought back by the Pirate King’s shipwreck. But Aziza had hidden all those crystal stones on Plague Island.

The Guardian God, an expert in such matters, was astonished: "Divine Stone Crystal Ore!!"

The long-lost and plump Cui appeared as radiant as ever: "Divine Stone? I don’t know much about it, do you, my guest?"

The Guardian God exclaimed: "It’s said that Divine Stones can only be found in the deepest void or under the highest pressure underground, containing a variety of components. The metallic ones include Magic Gold, Mithril, Secret Iron, and Bronze. The crystal ores are collectively known as Divine Stone Crystal Ore. Their appearance here undoubtedly points to the fall of a Divine Stone from the void—once others find out, a massive war is inevitable."

The Siren said, "Actually, most of the Divine Stone Ore has been almost completely mined. What’s left is just to dig out as much as possible before others discover it. Then, the Old Turtle will carry the island away, and that’s why we’re researching power imitation."

Ah, it’s almost been a month since the mining, so that’s the confidence with which the Merfolk allied with the Sirens.

The Guardian God spoke gravely: "The Empire has a vast airship fleet, and even the Void Fleet of the Golden Divine Throne could join the battle. What will we do then?"

The Siren sighed deeply: "This is indeed a troubling dilemma for me. What do you think we should do, my guest?"

The Guardian God remained silent for a moment, then took a deep breath: "I’ll help imitate the power."

Holy Shit!

Tifa was shocked: "God... Can this even be imitated?"

The Guardian God smiled: "I used to be a Machine Spirit after all. Although I can’t build it directly, I can help with testing! Having me here is a completely different situation."

No wonder, the Bronze Guardian God was a Machine Spirit! Truly a perfect match for the job.

The Guardian God continued: "Besides, knowing such an important secret on the island, it would be awkward for me not to get involved."

Chun shivered at the thought! So, this is actually a ruse orchestrated by the Merfolk and Sirens. If the Guardian God doesn’t help... but it is the Guardian God, internal conflict would be too rash!

The Siren laughed heartily: "Don’t misunderstand, my guest. If we were worried about you leaving, we wouldn’t have invited you here."

The Guardian God smiled faintly: "Madam, do not misinterpret. I find this very interesting, and with so many Divine Stone materials here, it’s a dream come true for me."

Tifa added, "I’ll stay and assist too."

Chun breathed a sigh of relief; as a Divine Artisan-level Mechanician and the Island Lord returning, he couldn’t shirk his duty: "I’ll help too!"

The Guardian God said: "Time is of the essence, with several of the Empire’s Princes in pursuit offshore, let’s speed up the work and start immediately without any further tours."

Ah!

Chun couldn’t help but ask directly: "How... madam, do we defend against those Princes?"

The Siren shot Chun a look, blinked, and pouted slightly: "When you arrived, didn’t you notice the Algae Sea increasing?"

Um... what kind of attitude is that? What do you mean increasing, it’s not like I’ve been here before...

Chun could only ask, "Is it the seaweed defense?"

The Siren said: "That’s correct, it’s said that this seaweed can be refined into a treatment for pneumoconiosis, but not all seaweed can be used. You have to find the parasitic algae, which can lodge in a patient’s lung vessels, open passages, and generate oxygen. I tried to find some, causing the Algae Sea to multiply en masse, so I might as well drive a storm to mobilize the Algae Sea, allowing it to surround our island and construct defenses..."

Holy Shit!!!

Hearing this, Chun was overwhelmed; this is the formula that Mei from the pneumoconiosis Blue Grey Village provided during the last visit, which Nancy conveyed. And to think they really executed it! (Chapter 457)

This is the thrill of leadership, issuing a command and seeing it implemented, unlike in cases where I’m likely to brush off my leaders.

Chun eagerly asked: "So did you find it?"

The Siren laughed: "We’re still testing slowly."

Um, how are you testing it? Who’s trying it?

The Guardian God sighed: "Pneumoconiosis... I recall... um, it’s said that during the development of Bronze City, many miners died from this disease, and there was no cure. Praying to the divine didn’t help, and they would suffocate slowly in despair. Madam, your research is truly innovative and admirable, compelling me to assist. Let’s begin."

Praying was useless? Maybe Chun could understand the Guardian God’s early experiences better now.

In any case, the group returned to the factory workspace.

At this moment, the massive power unit of the warship had been entirely dismantled and hoisted onto the workstation.

The Guardian God exclaimed: "Your dismantling was quite fast."

The Siren laughed: "Having previously dismantled an Empire guard ship, we’ve become proficient and specially prepared these machines..."

Chifanda cleared his throat: "Goddess, you’re stealing my lines!"

The Siren laughed heartily: "Alright, I’m not knowledgeable in this area, I won’t interrupt. Excuse me for now."

Cindyvana regarding soccer then said: "I’m not interested in this either, madam, would you please continue the tour with me?"

The Siren smiled and hugged her: "I’d be delighted..."

After the Siren left, the Guardian God ceased pretending, as his humanoid form began to dissipate into a mist: "I will now transform into Machine Spirit form, possessing the power unit and moving within every component. Chifanda, there’s no need to dismantle further, I’ll draw a 3D map directly. Tifa... uh, Little Fa, compile and run the blueprints."

Tifa: "Understood!"

And me?

Since I’m not assigned any task, I’ll just watch. With my Divine Artisan-level prowess, just one glance should boost my proficiency.

Soon, the Guardian God turned into a light mist, permeating the power unit, and despite the machine’s energy being cut off, it was able to operate with a clatter!

This time it surprised Chifanda: "So this is Machine Spirit!"

Chun added: "Not just any Machine Spirit, a Divine-level Machine Spirit!"

As they spoke, a light curtain appeared in the air beside the machine, quickly forming a diagram.

Chun indeed sensed a reaction—Mechanician profession reminder: Your Divine Artisan-level Mechanician has drawn the "Power Shell No. 001 Dynamic Draft Blueprint"!

What is a Dynamic Draft Blueprint?

But seeing this numbering is reassuring; it implies hundreds of blueprints aren’t needed, does it? After all, the more parts, the less feasible building something so vast as the Old Turtle island...

Tifa and Chifanda also quickly produced light diagrams.

Soon after, diagram 002 appeared and connected with diagram 1, even operating together!

This is what Dynamic Draft Blueprints are about, similar to interactive modeling in games!

The Guardian God’s speed in producing diagrams was astonishingly fast, as dozens of diagrams followed in succession.

These dozens of diagrams essentially formed the framework of the entire machine, capable of continuous operation.

At this point, Tifa’s graphic suddenly collapsed: "Ah!"

Chun was also amazed: "What is this..."

Tifa was a bit dejected: "It’s an error in my diagram."

The Guardian God’s voice came from within the machine: "No, a Machine Spirit’s machinery differs from regular machinery, which requires absolute precision. Machine Spirit machinery needs ample room for movement. That’s why older machines with more noise and rattle are more likely to foster Machine Spirits. Your error-free drawing is what caused the issue..."
