The Immortal Wizard is watching

Chapter 61 Transformers
Like the giant wolf skull, this is also a material that can store and transform magic power.

It seems that it is not a single accident. These barbarian tribes do have inheritance, Ronan guessed in his heart.

This also means that not only this tribe, but also from other barbarian tribes, he can also collect magic materials to speed up the integrity of the war chess sandbox.

It is a pity that these tribes are too scattered and lack contact with each other.

And the area of ​​the frozen soil is too large, and the heavy snow in the cold winter will cover up all footprints.

Unless the opponent actively appears within the range of the Cold Wind Territory, Ronan will be really hard to find in a short time.

But it doesn't matter, I am not afraid of the difficulty of the goal, but I am afraid of not having a goal.

Send a flock of crows to roam the frozen sky and search slowly.

The special magic power in the animal tooth necklace is the same as that of the giant wolf skull, and it also exudes a light blue halo. Obviously, the two come from the same source.

It is estimated that it was made of the teeth of the skull.

Ronan used the blood of those barbarian savages as research materials, and after trying it, he confirmed that it was still the three magic tracks.

After it had no research value, he directly absorbed it into the war chess sandbox.

[Acquire material supplements, unlock 2% of war chess sandbox, magic power reserve 200/200 +20/hour]

[Custom Puppet (Tier 0 War Chess) 10/[-]]

The magic reserve and recovery speed increased again, and there were ten more vacancies for puppets.

Only this time, Ronan was not in a hurry to make the mixed clay puppet he had researched before.

Now with the miners in place, he is facing another troublesome problem.

How to get a lot of coal out of the mine.

The conventional mode of transportation in this era is to rely on horse-drawn carts and carts to transport slowly, which takes a lot of manpower and time to solve the problem.

But Ronan's Coldwind Territory is cold and the roads are bad.

If this primitive method is adopted, not only is the efficiency extremely low, but also the cost is much higher than other mining areas.

What's more, the manpower in his territory has reached the current limit.

Before the farmland outside Black Rock City was planted, he couldn't continue to bear the risk of empty grain storage.

Since it is not possible to rely on manpower, then use technology to make up for it.

Therefore, Ronan has been thinking about the design of steam trucks during this time, which is why he wanted to make steam engines in the first place.

But the reality is far more troublesome than he imagined.

In order to ensure battery life, the volume of the high-pressure boiler needs to be further enlarged, making the volume of the truck even larger.

But in this era, there is no way to get rubber materials to make tires. Whether it is wooden or steel wheels, even if there are steel springs on the frame for shock absorption, driving in rugged mountainous terrain is still a disaster, and the car may overturn at any time.

Not only that, thanks to the low torque of the steam engine, it can achieve high-speed driving at a low speed, and the torque output curve is smooth, so he can ignore the gearbox and clutch first.

But other safety equipment like air pressure gauge, water meter, water pump, oil pump, fuel injector, ignition device and other starting equipment.

If you want to say that he doesn't understand, Ronan knows that there are all these things in the car.

But you're going to let him make it and put it together, Ronan spread his hands and said are you kidding me?

His current progress can only reach the completion of the transmission device such as the crankshaft, gears and connecting rods, which can ensure that after the steam engine is started, it will drive the wheels to rotate and let the car start.

As for the control of the vehicle, it can only be said to be resigned to fate.

Fortunately, he not only has technology, but also spells.

If technology doesn't work, then magic will come in handy.

If you can't make a control system, let the vehicle generate one by itself.

Ronan carried a pile of ordinary steel and placed it in front of the only steam engine connected to the transmission system so far.

"Magic power injection 200, spiritual projection blessing, puppet generation."

The surrounding steel exudes a colorful halo, and after merging into one mass, it completely envelops the steam power system.

In the end form a 2×2×2 steel cube.

[Steam Powered Steel Puppet (Tier 20 War Chess): Attack: 50/Defense: 20/Spirit: [-]]

【Quantity: 1/10】

[Features: The unique dual-power structure allows it to operate by steam power in addition to consuming mana, with high battery life. 】

[Skills: deformation, self-circulation: can control heat loss in the body, realize water circulation, and greatly improve thermal efficiency. 】

[Transformation conditions: 1 cubic meter of solid steel, a set of superalloy steam power system, 200 magic power, 20 spirituality]

Ronan didn't consider letting his puppets participate in mining and transportation before, because although they are powerful, they need to consume mana to act.

Unlike human knights, puppets are dead objects.

Their power comes from the core of magic power, and as long as they move, they need to consume the magic power in their bodies.

Once it is consumed, Ronan needs to use the war chess sandbox to re-inject it, otherwise it will be an immobile statue.

Moreover, the magic core of the second-tier war chess is not strong, and the power output is not enough to meet Ronan's transportation requirements.

Therefore, he chose to use the steam engine as a power substitute, and let the puppet be the main body of the vehicle to complete the driving control requirements.

After all, making a giant wolf jump and run flexibly is much, much more difficult than driving a car.

Even if the former can be achieved, the conditions for completing the latter are self-evident.

Ronan patted the steel cube in front of him.

It began to expand, and a huge truck head protruded from the front, with a steam power system inside.

The rear body is constantly elongated, and the middle is sunken, leaving a compartment for loading goods.

Unlike sculptures that require lifelikeness, trucks do not require details, and the ability to deform is sufficient to complete the entire structure.

The overall length of the vehicle is 7 meters × width 2.5 meters × height 2.7 meters, and the maximum load is about ten tons.

It's a pity that I don't have enough magic power now, otherwise I can try to make a larger puppet.

Ronan felt a little regretful in his heart, and that was the only way to do it now.

After all, one cubic meter of solid steel is close to eight tons, plus the weight of the superalloy steam power system.

If it is made bigger, it will be difficult for the magic core to maintain overall stability.

Ronan took out a box of coal and water that he had prepared earlier, and added them to the two pipes above the front of the car respectively.

Compared with the internal combustion engine, which only takes 5 minutes to ignite, the steam engine takes much longer time from the successful ignition to the boiler pressure rising to the operational state, often more than an hour.

But Ronan's puppet has dual systems, and the internal magic core starts to operate, instantly raising the pressure of the boiler.

Not only that, he even saved the most troublesome daily maintenance of the steam truck, and the automatic repair of the puppet will help him solve the problem.

Looking at the moving truck, Ronan couldn't help but make a new attempt.

At this moment, the truck jumped up high, the front of the truck stood upright, and a steel head popped out. The rear compartment was separated into two parts from the middle, and assembled into limbs full of edges and corners.

The transformed puppet fell to the ground, raising dust all over the sky.

In front of Ronan, a tall robot with a rough shape but full of the original impact of steel appeared.

At present, it is not useful at present, it is just a show, Ronan smiled and restored it to its original state.

But wait for his level and mastered technology to further improve.

The future is hard to say.
