Since there weren't many dwarves, they were all summoned, and then a few representatives were chosen from among the heroes to begin operating the [Reading Puppet].
First, Annie demonstrated to them how to use the controller to control the [Reading Doll].
The moment the controller is moved, the screen inside changes immediately.
Moving the joystick forward moves the screen forward, and moving it backward moves the screen backward.
This was an absolutely novel sight for a group of people who had never seen electronic devices before!
Even Miluko was deeply attracted by this novel experience and was eager to try it out the first time she saw it.
However, Milu has already played with it enough during this period of time by helping with the adjustments, and she's completely tired of it.
But... this led her to raise a question.
Since we can control this "reading doll," can we also create other controllable dolls?
If such a small handle can control a powerful puppet, wouldn't it allow every human to guard the border and attack the demon race from their home?
When Miluko brought up this idea, An Yi knew...
The powerful army that humanity needs to protect the entire territory of the human race seems to be taking shape.
In his previous life, he relied on the "King's Hero" to transform all humans into powerful warriors in the later stages of the game.
Right now, [King of Warriors] is still developing stealthily, and is far from being fully developed.
but……
But suddenly, humanity found a new way out!
An Yi hadn't expected this before, partly because she was too focused on testing the reading tool.
It was only after Milu mentioned it that I realized.
These things could absolutely be developed as weapons of war!
With each person equipped with a remotely controllable demonic mech, how could we possibly fail to defend human territory?
While cold-weather gear hasn't been developed yet, the idea of an army capable of defeating demons has suddenly become quite interesting.
If we could use higher-grade demonic materials to create this weapon of war, and combine it with the weapons produced in this icy plain, then once war breaks out…
The demons will probably have their heads knocked off.
A force made from the corpses of high-ranking demons, incapable of feeling pain and unafraid of death.
Even if its potential is not as high as that of a hero, it is still an absolute nightmare for ordinary demons!
The heroes and dwarves quickly got used to operating them, and these [Reading Dolls] were actually placed inside the [Holy Mountain].
They don't need to control puppets to crawl around the streets like An Yi does; they just need to find books.
The height and neck length can be adjusted at will, all for the purpose of confirming the book title and finding the book.
And most importantly, a group of capable helpers have suddenly appeared in the Holy Mountain!
The succubus organization was discovered and communicated with by the Sword Hero and the Dragon Hero, and the first transaction was conducted by the Demon Hero.
The Dream House can help heroes find books!
But Annie and Lana really didn't expect that when they came out of the Nightmare stronghold, Rox was actually sleeping right next to them!
When asked about it later, they could only say that they had discovered it in advance and discussed cooperation, but they didn't expect that Rox would be the first to make a deal with the succubi.
In fact, there are quite a few demon organizations in the city, but these organizations are also divided into those that can fight and those that cannot.
Those caravans, merchant guilds, reading groups, and debate clubs are all demonic organizations; they pose absolutely no threat to the lord's position.
Just like the [Dream House], they are a group of weak succubi who can't even fight, and they only make money by finding books. The [Chaos Demons] naturally have no need to wipe them out.
However, what the Chaotic Demon didn't know was;
This was also the most direct contact between [Chaos Demon] and [Nightmare].
Volume 3: Chapter 651, Section 137: The Old Drunkard's Intention Is Not in the Wine (4k)
Soon, the heroes and dwarves, at varying paces, became familiar with using the two types of puppets together to search for books on the Holy Mountain.
When it comes to finding books, relying on the Dream House is definitely faster than the heroes and dwarves finding them on their own.
But what can they do when they can't make the mouthless puppets speak?
Considering this situation, there is a very simple solution available—
type.
No, it wasn't entirely typing; it was just that the heroes of Nightmare Earl's City gave the succubi of Dream Seekers a stone tablet inscribed with various demonic pronunciations. Seven
It's like a stone slab covered with all the pinyin characters; by pointing to each character with your finger, you can eventually get a complete word from the pinyin you've pointed out. (Four)
The puppet has no mouth, and cannot perform overly complex operations using a simple device like a handle.
Ruby can control the doll's mouth directly with her mind, something the heroes cannot do.
Because the "golden threads" can extend directly from Ruby's body, but these threads cannot be connected to other heroes. Nine
This is actually a unique aspect of Ruby's ability; not just any hero can control a puppet with their mind.
With all the heroes fluent in the demon language, they only need to control the [Reading Doll] to find the succubi, and the succubi will then know they are looking for a book. (Seven)
Then the stone slab will be brought out immediately, and the heroes will use the [Reading Doll]'s finger to tap the slab and produce sounds, thus "speaking." Eight
They didn't know the titles of the books they needed; they could only "state" their requirements, such as what kind of books they wanted.
Some heroes also worry that these succubi might leak information, or tell other demons what the heroes are investigating.
If what happens here were to be leaked, even if Project White Sea wouldn't be exposed as a result, it would reveal that they were researching various new materials.
Materials that can be used in permafrost.
Of course, if they were conducting research as heroes, they wouldn't worry about how the demons with "superhuman insensitivity" would react.
but……
They operate under the guise of "Chaos Demons," but what is their purpose in researching new materials?
That's so hard to guess!
It's definitely all part of their plan to conquer the next piece of land!
Having foreseen the next move of the Chaotic Demons, it was only a matter of time before obstacles appeared within the demon race.
The heroes did not make any effort to hide their appearance or whereabouts in the Nightmare Earl's City.
Since everyone has reached the level cap required to defeat level 20 demons, there are currently no demons in the city that can rival the [Chaotic Demon].
As long as the heroes travel in groups and are not "instantly killed," they can instantly pull a large group of other heroes responsible for guarding the area from the chat group.
But precisely because it does not conceal its appearance or whereabouts, the [Chaos Demon] will inevitably attract attention from all sides.
These "reading dolls" attracted considerable attention when they first appeared.
The key reason they haven't been exposed yet is that they don't just take materials science books; they also take economics, biology, and a lot of magic books—all sorts of books mixed in.
Swoosh≡≮Shuttle÷『：‖ˉwu>镏liu。 ※Si≈√〓Ai watched as this group of "one-eyed monsters" flipped through four or five books simultaneously with both hands, seemingly reviewing the entire contents.
In reality, the camera still focuses on various books related to materials.
However, the heroes did not expect such a simple disguise to fool the clever succubus.
While they were looking for books, if they paid a little attention to the proportion of books, they would find that the heroes actually looked for more books related to materials.
It wasn't even that the heroes deliberately exposed themselves; they were simply subconsciously focusing on the books they needed.
In response, the heroes and succubi signed a confidentiality agreement that may or may not be effective.
Although it appears to be just an agreement on paper, in reality, reconnaissance heroes observe the succubi's situation every day.
Observations revealed that the succubi did indeed keep their promise.
Because of its inherent "charm" attribute, it often attracts some demons with weak willpower to come and chat with it.
But the succubi didn't even bother to look at each other, and according to the agreement, they were not allowed to have much interaction with other demons.
The succubi are very self-aware and restrain themselves from saying too much.
By "design," they come here to make money.
Since the [Chaos Demons] paid money, they should provide corresponding services.
In business, integrity is paramount.
With the help of Nightmare, the heroes quickly discovered several special materials suitable for crafting the equipment they needed.
First, almost unsurprisingly, the adventurers found some materials unique to volcanic regions, including magic ores that directly release fire elements.
Then they also found another kind of demon race that did not directly isolate elements, but could flexibly adapt to temperature and lived in areas with extreme temperature differences.
I imagine that the fur of this demon race wouldn't be easily destroyed by the cold wind.
Then there are the furs of other demons, such as those from the snowy mountain region, which are completely safe from being destroyed by wind and snow.
However... to find this kind of demon, you have to go into the frozen land!
How can we get into the frozen land without the fur of these demons?
San, go kill these demons and skin them!
Where can you find such a demon to kill if you don't have skin?!
Go into the permafrost!
5. To put it bluntly, this is basically impossible to achieve.
Perhaps by forming an expeditionary force composed of strong and resilient warriors, we can find and kill these demons.
But where can we find these demon races amidst this snow-covered landscape?
Moreover, there is an even more crucial issue.
In the previous "resistance enhancement" training, high-tenacity warriors and strength warriors were asked to hike into the permafrost.
In the extremely low visibility of the snowstorm, according to the observations of the reconnaissance warriors, almost all the warriors who walked into the snowstorm showed signs of changing direction.
In other words, they lost their way in the wind and snow as they walked.
When they finally returned, they needed the guidance of the reconnaissance heroes to get back to their original positions.
