Intelligent Conservation: Chapter 112 Mechanical Magic (2)

Lin Yi had also considered the question of how to make the puppets move. The Rozen Maidens possessed an advantage that the replicas did not have—the Rozen Mother. Even if they were just fragments of the Rozen Mother, they would still have incredible energy. It would not be a problem to make them "move" for thousands of years without sleep. However, the same problem became a problem when it came to the replicas.

First, it's impossible to make ordinary dolls perform mechanical movements—similar to winding up a clockwork mechanism—because the energy circuit requires energy, not the rotation of gears.

Realizing this, Lin Yi directly transferred a set of batteries from World Zero and tried to connect the circuitry to the energy circuit port on the doll. The result was that the doll, whose circuitry had taken two days to complete, convulsed, then emitted blue smoke and collapsed...

"The entire energy circuit is burned out... The reason for the excessive voltage?"

Lin Yi rubbed his temples as he disassembled the doll to examine the charred marks inside. He then halved the battery voltage and began the experiment again.

This time he succeeded—although the success lasted for less than three seconds.

"It's not that the voltage is too high, but rather that the current output is too stable..."

Among the many energy circuits that make up the doll's limbs and body, some have been burned to a charred black color while others remain intact. After thinking about it for a while, Lin Yi gradually understood why this situation had occurred.

Humans are not machines. Just like blood flowing, blood flows faster in some places and slower in others—this is the principle behind arteries and veins. This wouldn't be a problem for ordinary mechanical dolls. However, as a "doll" that involves the realm of consciousness and has a great similarity to humans, the energy circuit requires not the stable output of alternating current, but rather a fluctuating energy that needs to constantly adapt and change with time and location.

Unfortunately, Lin Yi's current knowledge is not sufficient to control this kind of energy.

With a helpless sigh, just as Lin Yi was about to give up on replicating the energy circuit, he suddenly remembered something.

"...God, can you convert your stored energy into something similar to the energy of Our Lady of the Rosary?"

[Feasibility 99.9%]

"Switch!"

Please specify the output port.

Lin Yi was taken aback: "Output port?"

The main deity does not have direct contact with matter and must use a host as a medium to output energy.

Indeed, when overload mode is activated, energy is amplified and strengthened by diffusion and burst from the inside out, rather than from the outside in. Therefore, it is only natural that an energy output port must be designed to output energy to external matter. However, this is not what puzzled Lin Yi.

"If I remember correctly, you didn't request an output port when you were making the watch before."

Instead, it directly interfered with reality right in front of Lin Yi, transforming several cheap electronic watches into "God-made" items with a strength far exceeding that of diamonds.

[The previous situation involved simple energy input; the current situation involves complex energy conversion.]

Although it felt a little strange, Lin Yi still honestly placed his right hand on the head of the doll in front of him.

"Then I'll use my right hand."

[Command confirmed, energy property conversion in progress...frequency adjustment...proportion input...]

Feeling the tingling sensation coming from his right hand, Lin Yi silently stared at the skin on his arm that was gradually turning a dark golden sheen.

The symptoms of the Kabane virus infection have not completely disappeared. After being infected in the restricted area, the entire body's genes were "locked" and there was no possibility of eliminating it. Lin Yi could only try to use his right hand less to avoid exposing the abnormality of his body. However, there was nothing he could do at this time.

However, at this moment, as Lin Yi witnessed the puppet gradually developing a color similar to his right hand as the main god converted energy input, a thought suddenly occurred to him.

"God, if I remember correctly, my right hand isn't made of flesh and blood anymore, is it?"

[The assessment is correct; currently, 84.6% of the composition consists of metallic elements, increasing to 97.1% under overload conditions.]

"...Then, that energy circuit should be able to be copied to my right hand."

【…】

Unexpectedly, this time the main god did not answer immediately. Even the energy input suddenly stopped, as if it had crashed and fallen silent.

Just as Lin Yi was wondering if something was wrong with it, the mechanical voice sounded again.

[The correct judgment: whether to develop a specific renovation plan]

"It's different for now. After all, there isn't a serious shortage of samples for either the original or the clones, so we wouldn't know if there were any errors or omissions."

Just like the previous four mutated viruses, Lin Yi would not voluntarily infect himself unless a certain world had enough samples to confirm that there was no danger. Otherwise, he would never risk unknown risks and bring a bunch of trouble upon himself. Of course, except for the accident that occurred during the first attempt in the Kabane world. At that time, it seemed to have an extra serious consequence, but now it seems to have become a good thing.

Feeling his right hand gradually cool down, Lin Yi removed his hand from the doll's head, and then, under his somewhat fanatical gaze, the "doll" opened its eyes.

Recently, some minor problems have emerged within the British Empire.

First, a large amount of metal was bought up and disappeared without a trace. Then, every now and then, news of accidents involving the navy would come. Either patrol ships would be attacked and silenced, or a sudden fire would break out in the naval port. The most unbelievable thing was a hijacking case.

According to a rumor, it seems that a main battleship of the Imperial Navy was attacked by a mysterious sorcerer on its return voyage. The soldiers and sorcerer on board were either killed by his incredible yet powerful "magic" or thrown into the sea.

Just as the British Empire received the news and immediately dispatched its entire mage legion to that sea area, what they saw was the main battleship quietly resting on the sea, except that its three main cannons and anti-aircraft guns, representing the empire's most advanced technology, were all gone...

More than the mysteriously disappeared naval cannons and weapons, people were more concerned about the identity of the "magician" dressed in black robes. After all, in this era of "magic decline," it had been a long time since such a powerful magician had appeared. To single-handedly defeat more than a hundred people on a warship was something that only existed in ancient magical legends. Now, one had suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and as an enemy of the British Empire, it was undoubtedly a huge blow to all magicians. Even His Majesty the King was affected and had to cancel an overseas visit.

Lin Yi, the instigator of all this, paid no attention to it. After collecting enough "materials", he finally began the massive project he had planned to make this boring world "interesting".

The first step was to create a 20-meter-tall "doll".

Intelligent Conservation: Chapter 113 Mechanical Magic (3)

Unlike dolls made of materials like porcelain, Lin Yi's right hand, which was transformed after being infected and eroded by the Kabane virus, is mainly made of metal. If it is to be modified, the previous dolls cannot be used as samples. Therefore, it is necessary to return the exploration of intelligent machinery, which was once derailed by the appearance of Rozen Maiden, to the field of "mechanics".

Therefore, having obtained sufficient data from the doll, Lin Yi chose to create a "doll" primarily made of metal—although there were slight differences in its size.

"Because the volume is large enough, in addition to scaling up the circuit tenfold, we can try to imprint all seven circuit models into it."

Following the design provided by the main god, Lin Yi used the bone blade that popped out from the back of his hand to pierce a steel plate in his hand with several small holes, and then wedged it into the leg of the "doll"—just right.

He clapped his hands: "After all, the main purpose is to let them understand the manufacturing and operating principles of these dolls. If they're too small, it'll be troublesome if they can't see them clearly."

Yes, Lin Yi's reason for wasting time and energy creating this doll, which was ten times larger, was not simply because of the deal with Laplace that would make the world "interesting." In addition, gathering information about the operation of the energy circuit model on mechanical matter was also one of his purposes in preparing for the modification of his right hand. But his biggest purpose was to make the people of this world aware of and come into contact with this magical "magic."

—Ingenious magic.

“Unlike when the virus was spreading, back then, all I needed to do to get enough experimental samples was to keep spreading and infecting people. Those infected by the virus and those who resisted it would naturally provide me with all the information I needed. But this time, it won’t work.”

If viruses can spread and infect samples, then what about technology?

Looking at the history of World Zero, what factors have contributed to the development of a technology—or perhaps science?

Economic incentives, political bargaining chips, or subtle cultural influence... these are undoubtedly effective methods proven by history. The question is what time and conditions they require.

It would take at least ten years, and at most a hundred years, to see results. Is it possible for Lin Yi to waste that much time in this world?

Because it was impossible, he had to choose this method, which had also been proven effective and was the quickest to implement.

"war."

After attaching the last main cannon salvaged from the warship to the "doll's" shoulder, Lin Yi landed on the ground and looked up at the finished product, which he had stolen from all sides and finally completed by relying on the form and design of the main god. He felt a surge of satisfaction.

Perhaps every male is born with genes that make him interested in such giant robots.

"The history of my world has proven that war is the best option to spread something in the widest range in the shortest amount of time, whether it is ideological or material. As long as those who have no other choice find that there is still a possibility, they will make the choice without hesitation..."

From a human values ​​and ethical perspective, losers tend to feel aversion and resistance towards things associated with the winners.

"That's true, but that only applies to 'others' things.' What if we make it 'our own'?"

After circling the "doll" twice to make sure there were no problems, Lin Yi lightly leaped onto its shoulder, stepping on the protruding parts. He then extended his right hand, which was already gleaming with a dark golden light, towards the doll's head, which he imagined had an opening at the back.

"God, connect to the energy port."

[Command confirmed, energy property conversion in progress...frequency adjustment...proportion input...]

Because its size has increased tenfold, the energy required to drive it has also become enormous. Even with the reserves of the main god, it is impossible to complete the task in a short time. During this energy input process, Lin Yi also truly explained the reason why he did this.

"The history of the country I live in... World Zero is quite interesting. About a hundred years ago, the ruling class at that time regarded any country other than their own with contempt, considering them to be backward and ignorant. Naturally, they resisted everything that came from the outside world."

"However, after their defeat in a war against the outside world, this mindset began to change in an interesting way... Most people thought it was just an accident, but a few began to realize the truth. After that, they fought wars of varying scales with different countries, but without exception, they all ended in overwhelming defeat. At this point, what do you think their reaction was?"

【…】

"It's quite interesting that their thinking has shifted from a fundamental rejection and denial of the outside world to an indiscriminate acceptance and affirmation of everything that belongs to the outside world. To a certain extent, there has even been a trend of abolishing what belongs to oneself and then completely accepting external things."

"Therefore, it may be quite difficult to get a person to believe from the bottom of their heart that they are wrong and backward and then accept the ideas of others, but it is exceptionally easy to get an organization—especially a large organization like a 'nation'—to realize that it has fallen behind the times and has to learn other things."

Having finished channeling energy into his right hand, Lin Yi smiled as the "doll" beneath his feet vibrated slightly as its internal parts rotated: "Just crush it from the front, one crushing at a time."

Intelligent Conservation: Chapter 114 Mechanical Magic (4)

As the world's largest and most powerful nation with the most extensive colonies, the British Empire naturally attracts attention from other countries in many ways. This includes news of a warship being hijacked and the appearance of an exceptionally powerful magician within the country.

In an era where magic was of paramount importance, a powerful magician was a deterrent. Driven by a desire for alliance or cooperation, almost every nation that received the news sent its spies to try and locate this "magician" within the British Empire. Bringing him into their camp would be ideal, but even that would be a hindrance to the increasingly powerful British Empire. After all, judging from the "magician's" recent actions, he clearly didn't harbor any goodwill towards the country.

With so many informants gathered on British soil, even the smallest matter could be magnified several times or even ten times and then spread to the outside world.

However, when news broke that Southampton, a port city in southern Britain, had been attacked and that the entire port area, along with half the city, had been destroyed, these informants from all sides fell into an eerie silence. Their first thought wasn't how shocking or valuable the news was, but rather a serious skepticism about its veracity.

"Of course, before the atomic bomb was invented, no one thought that humanity could destroy its own civilization, which had taken thousands of years to build, in just a few hours."

Standing on the shoulder of "Unit-01", the gun barrels below, which originally belonged to the main guns of the battleship, were still scorching hot from repeated firing. However, Lin Yi, who was on the side, indifferently pointed his right hand to a certain place in the distant ruins.

Willpower is converted into instructions that can be understood by mechanical intelligence. These signals are transmitted through the metal shell and received by the core inside. Accompanied by the creaking sound of gears turning under the strain, the dark, smoking cannon muzzle turns into the distance.

"Bang!"

The thrust generated by the gunpowder explosion propelled the prototype shell more than 500 meters into the sky, tracing a slanted arc across the horizon before crashing to the ground.

"boom--------!!!"

Looking down at the burning city below, Lin Yi seemed to realize something: "The armor seems to be too thick."

A moment later, the enormous metal humanoid, named "Unit-01," trampled the uneven ground beneath it, cratered by various bullet holes and magical traces, and advanced northward...

------------segmentation----------

News can be fabricated, but reality cannot.

The dilapidated state of Southampton was captured by eyes with various thoughts, and then translated into language and text to be transmitted in all directions. As the owner of this land, the British Empire was naturally the fastest to react.

Almost simultaneously with their informants relaying this news, which could potentially alter the global landscape, the British Royal Army set out from the north, west, and east, heading straight for the resolute "metal giant" that was steadily advancing northward.

At the same time, various pieces of information about this enormous object, which had never appeared before or since, were also presented to every magician who was dealing with the situation.

"This metallic giant has a controller, and the survivors in Southampton noticed the person on its shoulder... If his memory serves him right, he should be the mage who hijacked the Imperial warship."

Where is he from?

Why are you hostile to the empire?

……

"Now is not the time to discuss these issues. The imperial army has already surrounded that mage. A legion of three thousand elite knights and five hundred mages could not possibly survive even if the legendary god of magic from ancient times descended!"

The matter was thus settled within the British Empire. The wizards then discussed how to deal with the arrogant wizard and the "metal giant" with incredible power beneath his feet, until they were interrupted in the middle of the meeting by the sudden bad news.

The timeline shifts to thirty minutes ago.

"I suddenly remembered something."

[Unintelligible instructions]

"God, do you know the biggest difference between the era of cold weapons and the era of firearms?"

A cold, mechanical voice echoed in my mind.

【efficiency】

"That's right. The efficiency of killing a certain number of people in the same amount of time, which can be redefined as quantity, means that in the era of cold weapons, the side with more people had a greater chance of winning. However, in the era of firearms, this concept has been completely overturned. While it's not accurate to say that the side with fewer people is more likely to win, at least..."

Gazing at the three neatly arranged cavalry formations on the horizon, Lin Yi's smile widened uncontrollably: "The side with overwhelming technological superiority is destined not to lose."

—In the Zero World, Lin Yi had once heard of cases of cavalry charging tanks. At that time, he found this situation unbelievable. To use human flesh and blood to charge industrial metal products, how desperate must one be?

However, he now realized that sometimes certain crazy actions were not caused by having no other choice. It was possible that his understanding and thinking were limited by what he called "the times". Perhaps they thought it was just a "duel" of three thousand five hundred against one rather than a war, or perhaps they thought that the outcome of a battle on the ground was determined by each other's bravery and will.

"In terms of conclusion, there is actually no difference."

He muttered to himself as he inserted his right hand into the opening in the back of Unit-01's head.

When three thousand warhorses charged on the ground at the same time, the shock of their iron hooves was even greater than that of thirty thousand infantrymen. The lone figure facing this charge that seemed to swallow everything on the ground seemed to have its twenty-meter height shrunk considerably, let alone the "mortals" standing on its shoulders.

At this moment, every knight on horseback was certain that the outcome was already decided. They didn't even need the five hundred mages behind them to come out; they alone could crush the terrified, motionless piece of scrap metal in front of them—just as Lin Yi believed that the two 48-hole modified Gatling guns protruding from the hands of "Unit-01" would bring them to justice.

"Tell them that times have changed."
