This isn't a souls-like game at all.

“As far as I know, puppeteers are the royal craftsmen under the Lord of Life and Death and the Heavenly Forger. Their purpose is to independently create puppets that can operate autonomously without relying on clever techniques or divine machines.

"People who engage in this kind of research are called puppeteers."

"Autonomous operation..."

Ye Yiyi pondered for a moment, and suddenly understood the essential difference between the puppeteer and the royal craftsman Andrew.

The former intends to get rid of Transformers and create artificial intelligence that belongs to mankind.

The latter intends to engage in human transmutation.

And it is obvious that the former was accomplished, but the latter was not even touched.

Otherwise, the item description of the Ringed Blood Heart would not specifically mention the Puppet Master.

He suddenly became curious. What kind of puppet could he make with this ring-blood heart?

After putting the heart away, he took out the gem from the head of the Devouring Earth Dragon and looked at it.

In addition to the lightning gem, he also obtained a variety of enchantment gems.

Among them, the white one that emits magical fluorescence is the wisdom gem.

【Gem of Wisdom】

Item Description: A gem found in the wreckage of the wise man.

Used for qualitative enhancement of weapons.

A qualitative enhancement that can impart "magic power"

Or it can increase the damage compensation of the weapon's "intelligence" attribute.

On the alien planet Ron Moya,

Magic is seen as the crystallization of wisdom.

Therefore, the magician who produces gems after death,

Also respected as a wise man.

"So this thing... is actually a magician's version of a relic?"

Ye Yiyi stared at the gem in her hand with a somewhat conflicted expression.

With his intelligence of 70, I'm afraid he will be able to burn out a lot of wisdom gems after his death.

Corresponding to the Gem of Wisdom is a Gem of Faith that emits a faint golden light.

【Faith Gem】

Item Description: A gem found in the remains of the Pious.

Used for qualitative enhancement of weapons.

Can give "sacred" qualitative enhancement,

Or increase the damage compensation of the weapon's "Faith" attribute.

Only those who are sincere in their faith and the path ahead, and who are thus enlightened,

Only then can he be honored as a saint.

"This is a bit low-grade. I thought this thing was found in the body of an enlightened saint."

Ye Yiyi muttered in his heart, "Otherwise, the Archbishop still owes me a Gem of Faith."

In addition, Ye Yiyi also obtained two fire gems, two power gems, and one fool gem.

He had already obtained a Fire Gem in the Fairy Mountains. The Strength Gem was similar to the Skill Gem, and the item descriptions were basically the same.

However, he found the effect of the Fool's Gem very interesting.

[Gem of the Fool]

Item Description: A special gem found in the wreckage of the Mind Severer.

It has sacred symbolic meaning and is regarded as a symbol of blindness and foolishness.

Used for enchantment slots in weapons.

When the user falls into the abnormal state of "frenzy" or "prophecy",

Can increase the damage compensation to all attributes.

The more ignorant you are, the closer you are to the truth.

The crazier you are, the further away you are from death.

"It's okay for the blind and foolish, but does this mean it's only for the believers of Azathoth?" Ye Yiyi complained silently.

However, the effect of this gem is very powerful, especially when paired with a cheater like Ye Yiyi who has infinite health.

Alice also saw these gems and gave an explanation for their existence.

"Like the Linlang Gem Beast, any creature that feeds on stone will have a chance of producing this stone essence.

"But compared to the Gem Beast, the output rate of the Mineral Earthworm is too low."

"They grow up eating stones, so what are their excrement?" Ye Yiyi suddenly asked.

"It's stone too, but it's just impurities in the stone," Alice answered.

"Is there a possibility, Alice?" Ye Yiyi thought, "This so-called essence of stone is actually the essence of shit?"

"?"

Alice was a little confused.

"After all, what is pulled out are impurities. In other words, they are purified, exotic gems with various powers."

"Ah..." The girl stared at him blankly, "I've never thought about that."

"I'm just saying this, just take it as a joke and don't let your imagination run wild."

Ye Yiyi stuffed the alternative "feces" in his hand into the four-dimensional chrysanthemum, returned to the island, and came to the ruins to check.

"There's a tombstone next to it."

Alice shook off her confusion of shit and piss, and sighed at the ruins.

"This must have been the residence of an observer who, after his death, did not leave the rainforest but was buried next to his home."

"Maybe." Ye Yiyi curled her lips, walked along the ruins to the tombstone and took a look. It was indeed a holy monument.

He lit it silently, without Alice noticing the movement.

In this regard, Alice was just like those ordinary people, and was completely unaware of the light emitted by the holy monument.

This also saved him the trouble of thinking hard about a lie.

After all, Alice had just seen so many things that were impossible to talk about.

Since she didn't ask, Ye Yiyi pretended nothing happened.

Anyway, we can delay it as long as possible. Let’s go to the catacombs first.

As for the name of the holy monument here:

"[Lupei Rainforest, Lone Star Swamp Central Island]?"

So they were nearly halfway there.

It seems that the outpost on the other side of the swamp is not far away.

"Yiyi, come and take a look."

He was thinking when he suddenly heard Alice calling him anxiously.

"What happened?" He followed the sound and came to the interior of the ruins. Then, under a wooden beam, he found a skeleton wearing the armor of a Knight of the Fire Crown.

"Why is there a dead person here?" Alice asked in confusion.

"This..." Ye Yiyi shook his head blankly, "How should I know this?"

He knew why the Fire Crown Knight existed here, but he didn't know how the knight died.

Is it because of the Devouring Earth Dragon?

Alice frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly suggested:

"How about we bury him and let the departed soul rest in peace?"

"Okay." Ye nodded.

After moving the damp wooden beams away, Alice unexpectedly discovered a rusty two-handed hammer and a leather backpack.

"Is this his relic?" Alice picked up the backpack, opened it and took a look, then she took out a damp parchment scroll from it.

Ye Yiyi was moving the beams of the house when he suddenly saw this scene, and his heart was lifted up.

If Alice saw the contents of the file, wouldn't that be...

Chapter 186 No One Can Sleep Tonight

"Bang!"

Before Alice could spread out the document to check, a loud sound of a wooden beam collapsing suddenly came from beside her, frightening the girl so much that she trembled.

"what happened?"

She looked up and saw Ye Yiyi throwing the broken wooden beam aside with a dark face.

"This house is built right in the middle of a swamp and is severely affected by moisture. Although it has collapsed already, the possibility of it collapsing a second time cannot be ruled out. You'd better go out and wait." Ye Yiyi suggested.

This is the truth. He didn't make that noise on purpose.

"I'd better come and help you."

Unexpectedly, Alice shook her head, put the parchment back into her backpack, and put it outside the door. Then, she and Ye Yiyi took out the knight's body and weapons.

She looked back and forth at the Fire Crown Knight, who had turned into a skeleton, with a frown on her face.

Ye Yiyi was checking the rusty metal hammer.

The hammer is very large, with a long metal handle and a heavy iron block on the top that is the size of a human head and is finely carved to look like a blooming flower.

In terms of length, it is shorter than the Coiled Horn Hammer and a little lighter. It does not fall into the category of extra-large weapons, but is just an ordinary sledgehammer.

Even so, after a rough estimate by Ye Yiyi, the weight of this hammer exceeded 20 kilograms, which was not a weapon that a normal human could use.

"A weapon like this simply cannot exist in reality..."

He sighed as he swung the sledgehammer, testing the feel of it.

"The balance is quite good. It must be made by a skilled blacksmith."

Then check the light curtain.
