When going to find the doctor, Lin Qiu was in demon state. After all, Barbara didn't seem to like that form of his very much, and the aura emitted by the demon state could easily cause mechanical devices like Iron Man to become restless.
Therefore, he would maintain his normal state during non-combat time, and even during combat, he would not easily transform. Although his heart sea was no longer without magic, the Sun Wheel Armor was enough.
In addition, the research institute is very complex, but the defense is not very rich.
Presumably, most of the Fatui who followed the Doctor to defect were arrested in Liyue. The traitors in the snowy mountains were all at the end of their strength. Moreover, in such a place, the diseases and other losses caused by the cold environment were immeasurable.
Because of this, Lin Qiu did not encounter too many obstacles on his way to find the Doctor. Those Fatui soldiers were easily dealt with without him even having to do anything.
Either they were lifted up by Captain Jean using the wind element and thrown against the wall to knock them unconscious, or they were frozen in place and unable to move by Eula's cooperation with Barbara's water-ice reaction.
All Lin Qiu needed to do was to keep an eye on the Ice Firefly Mage who was leading the way, while maintaining the shields and arrow protection on his companions, and saving his energy to fight the doctor.
On the way to find the doctor, he was still thinking about why that guy set up camp in the snowy mountains, and what he wanted to do by modifying the portal to absorb objects in Mond like a vacuum cleaner.
After bypassing the complicated path, Lin Qiu and his friends arrived in front of the sturdy iron gate. The Ice Firefly Warlock said that the doctor usually liked to stay here.
Lin Qiu's system skills told him that the doctor was indeed inside the door in front of him, and the Ice Firefly Warlock had not led him the wrong way, so he untied the Ice Firefly Warlock's rope, and the latter ran away directly. He must have been an unlucky guy who was forced to rebel by the doctor.
Next, all we have to do is destroy the sturdy iron door in front of us and slice and kill the doctor's second betrayer, and everything will be over.
He wanted to release his magic power to destroy the iron gate, but found that all his magic power was used to maintain the shield.
At this moment, Eula picked up her greatsword and went on the field. With just a few strikes, as if cutting butter with a hot knife, she knocked holes all over the thick iron door. She only needed one final push to completely destroy the defense.
"Well done!" Lin Qiu gave a thumbs up.
Eula hesitated for a few seconds and gave a thumbs-up in return, with a hint of humility in her expression, as if she was replying to Lin Qiu: It's just a small matter, not a big deal.
Lin Qiu raised his leg and kicked at the tall metal door. The originally tattered door was completely broken into pieces by him and fell inside.
Rumble, as if a giant beast fell to the ground, and the iron gate was completely destroyed, and the situation inside appeared in the eyes of Lin Qiu and others.
Inside the door, a warm breath kept surging, and the deep red environment made people feel uncomfortable.
The doctor stood in front of a rock wall with his hands behind his back. On the rock wall, a scarlet unidentified object was beating like a heart. This object was the light source that turned the surrounding environment into this, and it contained indescribable energy.
In addition, there is a mechanical device similar to a podium next to the doctor. There are no other unnecessary decorations on it, only an extremely conspicuous red button.
"This is..." Qin frowned.
"The heart of the dragon Durin, and the related legends, are probably something that everyone in Mond has heard of, especially aristocratic rulers like you." The doctor stopped observing the dragon's heart and turned to face everyone. "Of course, this is not the real heart of Durin, but a cloned product based on the heart. I have cloned more than a dozen..."
Even without opening the poor man's eyes, Lin Qiu knew that this guy was not bluffing, but showing off his great invention.
"What do you want to do?" Lin Qiu asked.
"My logic of action and the subject of my research are similar to that of the slice in Liyue." The doctor was more mature and steady, and answered slowly, "My goal is to enable living things to ascend through machinery, and the experimental subject this time is the dragon."
“Why does he feel even worse than Osel?” Lin Qiu complained.
Osel is a complete demon, but Durin is not only torn into pieces now, but his original strength is not as good as that of the Whirlpool Demon. Lin Qiu is a little suspicious that the more the doctor studies, the more he regresses, and he is even worse than the young doctor in Mond.
In fact, Lin Qiu was already prepared. He activated his inherent time control to attack Dr. Tu's face and released his magic power to kill him instantly. However, Lin Qiu suddenly realized that there was a thin red film in front of the doctor, like a protective shield to protect him and Durin's heart.
Due to the effect of inherent time control, it would take about five seconds to break through the protective shield, so there was no way to control the doctor first.
If the doctor cannot break through the thin film instantly, he might press the red button. It would be hard to predict what will happen then.
Because of this, Lin Qiu was waiting, waiting for a suitable opportunity, directly transforming into a demon and throwing a killing gun, killing the doctor and the dragon's heart in seconds.
"Not as good as Osel, indeed. If it is the normal Durin, it is indeed not as good as Osel, but it is not the normal Durin..." The doctor raised a smile, "And I prepared more than a dozen special hearts for Durin, and then used a mechanical body to repair its defects. With the energy provided by more than a dozen magic dragon hearts at the same time, its power can reach or even surpass the demon god!"
Lin Qiu finally understood.
This doctor wanted to create a fusion product of mechanical ascension and genetic ascension. He would use mechanical technology to create a mechanical body for the dragon, and then use genetic technology to clone a large number of hearts for it, so as to achieve a strength comparable to that of the devil.
I have to admit, it's crazier and more creative than the previous slice.
The doctor continued, "Of course, the most troublesome step is how to start Mechanical Durin. After all, it has stopped working for many years. But I recently found a good way, which is to use human negative emotions as fuel to make the dragon regain power!"
"Negative emotions..." Barbara murmured.
The doctor raised his mouth even more, as if showing off his invention. He said, "Negative emotions are actually an invisible substance that will remain in the wind like dust. In this case, this energy can be collected along with the wind element."
Having said this, Lin Qiu already understood the truth of the matter.
The reason why a drone was sent to smash the face of the statue of the god of wind, the reason why an attempt was made to kidnap the national idol Barbara on the day of the concert, and the reason why the people of Mondstadt were caused to panic, was to make people have negative emotions, which would serve as the energy for Durin to activate.
Then use the portal to suck in these negative emotions along with Mond's wind, and the mechanized dragon with multiple hearts can be activated. I guess as long as the doctor presses that button, the gears of this conspiracy will start moving at the same time.
At present, there is no sign that the button has been pressed, but it is protected by a protective cover and the doctor can press it at any time.
Lin Qiu decided to threaten him.
Lin Qiu remembered a skill that he had acquired a long time ago but rarely used - a remote slap in the face.
He waved his arms violently, his movements like he was slapping the air, and everyone looked at him in shock.
The next moment, the doctor's body flipped 360 degrees and fell to the ground, as if Lin Qiu's slap had hit the doctor's face, almost knocking off his mask.
Barbara and the others were dumbfounded.
Then, the doctor stood up staggeringly, holding onto the button stand, and straightened the cracked mask. He looked at Lin Qiu with a little surprise: "How did you do it?"
"Tsk, can't I just kill it with a slap?" Lin Qiu muttered.
If it weren't for the fact that after he turned into a demon, some of his skills couldn't be used, including slapping, otherwise he would have directly turned into a demon and killed the doctor with a slap.
"This is my ability. I can slap anyone remotely." Lin Qiu explained and asked, "Doctor, you should know that the Heavenly Justice Maintainer has been silent for a long time, as if it has fallen into a deep sleep, right?"
The doctor was stunned, not knowing why the other party asked this.
Lin Qiu then asked, "Then, Doctor, you are also well aware that Kanreya was destroyed by the law of nature because of its 'overdeveloped' technology, right?"
The doctor vaguely guessed what Lin Qiu wanted to do.
Lin Qiu threatened loudly, "Doctor, if you dare to press that button, I will remotely slap the Heavenly Justice Maintainer in the face and wake her up. By then, I don't know whether she will kill me first, or bury you and your little invention together in the snowy mountains!"
The doctor did not move and remained silent for a long time.
This man who was called a great hero actually wanted to slap the upholder of justice in the face in order to threaten himself!
Chapter 152 Mechanical Dragon, start!
In fact, Lin Qiu's slapping of the Heavenly Justice Maintainer was just nonsense to scare the doctor.
He does have the ability to slap Heavenly Justice in the face, however, the Dragon Spine Snow Mountains are sandwiched between Mondstadt and Liyue. It is not a good idea to attract Heavenly Justice's attention here, as it may easily affect the normal development of the two neighboring countries.
In other words, he said this just to threaten the doctor and would not take any actual action.
I just wanted to take advantage of the moment when the doctor was hesitating whether to press the button, transform directly, throw the killing gun, break through the protective shield and kill the culprit directly.
As for why he didn't throw the spear when the doctor was knocked down by the slap, it was because Lin Qiu was unsure of the defensive capabilities of the shield. Transformation also takes time. If the shield could block him from transforming into a demon for more than half a second, there would be a danger of the doctor pressing the button.
Therefore, it is necessary to use the Maintainer of Heaven's Law as a threat. In that case, even if Lin Qiu makes some offensive actions, the doctor will still consider and weigh the pros and cons, and there will be time to break through the protective shield.
After all, if the dragon really resurrected, it would be a very troublesome thing. At that time, all the residents of Liyue had gone to the shelter. In addition, Osel mainly engaged in marine activities, so Lin Qiu could freely use his power.
But now, it was late at night and the people of Mond were all fast asleep, completely defenseless. In addition, the dragon's range of activity was in the sky, making it much more difficult to intercept than Osel.
The most important thing is that Lin Qiu in Demon God Mode has no ability to fly at all. He relies on magic power to release jets of fire to fly. Without the magic in his heart, it cannot last long and cannot be used as a fighting method.
Combining the above points, if it is possible to prevent the dragon from waking up, we should try our best to prevent it from waking up, otherwise it will be a big trouble. That is why Lin Qiu threatened in such a way, trying to get the doctor to click the button and find a way to kill him before Du Lin is resurrected.
Under normal circumstances, even if Lin Qiu slapped the doctor over the protective shield, he would not believe that Lin Qiu could slap the doctor.
But now, the doctor combined Lin Qiu's previous wonderful information and analyzed that this guy might really be able to do magical operations such as waking up Tianli from a distance.
After all, there has never been anyone in the history of Teyvat who could conquer gods. Lin Qiu is the first one. From this point alone, his words are very credible.
Therefore, Lin Qiu successfully fooled the doctor.
However, Jean, Barbara, and Eula did not understand what Lin Qiu was saying at all and could only attribute it to some kind of code. Despite this, they felt relieved because Lin Qiu's speech successfully stunned the doctor.
However, Dotore remained silent for a few seconds, then he sighed with regret and said, "If you want to awaken the law of nature, then act now. I can't stop you anyway."
"If you don't press this button and awaken the Demon Dragon Durin, I won't awaken the Heavenly Principle." Lin Qiu was a little confused by the other party's words and continued to explain, "This is a deal. We don't want to lose both sides. That's what I mean."
The doctor touched the crack on his mask, then looked at the button stand beside him and said, "Unfortunately, this thing is just a decoration. In fact, when the portal was opened to absorb the negative emotions released by the Mond people, Durin's resurrection had already begun."
Just as he finished speaking, the doctor pressed the button a few times, but it wouldn't work. Just as he said, this thing was not used to activate the dragon, it was just a decoration.
Lin Qiu's expression became a little tense.
It turns out that you are standing next to the button and chatting with us like a mastermind, just to show off. If you could just tell me clearly earlier, I would kill you.
I've wasted my time talking here, damn!
As soon as Lin Qiu finished his complaints, he twisted his belt without thinking and transformed. Three seconds later, the black smoke released by the belt gradually dissipated, and the great hero in the form of a demon wearing a hooded cloak appeared in front of everyone again.
After the transformation, Lin Qiu stopped the low growl in his throat and asked slowly again: "Let me ask you, did you also back up your own personality like the doctor in Liyue?"
"No, that's an idea that only the young me would have. My plan is far more mature, complete and meaningful than his!" The doctor realized that Lin Qiu would not summon the law of nature now, so he raised his mouth to an unprecedented degree, but his tone was still elegant as he said, "Even if I die, my plan will still be realized - let the magic dragon Durin realize it."
"What do you mean?" Lin Qiu asked.
The doctor lowered his raised hands and answered word by word: "The breath of the magic dragon Durin will cover all matter with organic metals and assimilate with them. Its logic of action is to ensure its own survival while covering everything with machinery."
The meaning is very simple. After being modified by the doctor, Durin will act as a paintbrush covered with paint to paint Teyvat into a mechanical world, or in other words, a world that is half biological and half mechanical.
The research topics he developed were, in a sense, more ambitious than those of the young slice from Liyue.
The one in Liyue is still thinking about letting the Demon God ascend mechanically and storing his consciousness on the Demon God, but this mature slice is already thinking about the ascension of the entire population.
The situation is completely different.
Of course, the situation is crazy. Not to mention how many creatures will die from rejection during the mechanical ascension process, the doctor has not even investigated whether the creatures in Teyvat are willing to ascend.
He disregarded the opinions of living things, arbitrarily determined their fate, and proclaimed himself the god of the new world.
Doctor Slice was still immersed in his great feat: "If you want to summon Heavenly Justice, I advise you to hurry up. If the mechanical coverage rate of Teyvat reaches 90%, I am afraid that even if Heavenly Justice himself descends, he will not be able to stop this ascension."
Lin Qiu remained silent.
The doctor continued: "At that time, the mechanical Teyvat will unite all living things and become a unique individual, a real living thing. Even if I die at that time, I will live forever in another way!"
"Then go to hell." The demon god Lin Qiuren was ruthless and didn't say much. At the cost of destroying his right hand, he suddenly threw out a killing spear.
The moment the tip of the gun touched the protective shield, cracks appeared on the shield. About two seconds later, the gun covered with thorns penetrated the protective shield, shattering most of the doctor's body and fixing on Durin's heart which was beating behind him.
The doctor, who was almost half dead, lay on the ground and said, "It's a pity that this is just a clone. Including Durin's own heart, there are five in total. If you don't destroy them all, Mechanical Durin will keep running..."
Boom! ! !
Just as he finished speaking, there was a sound of mountains collapsing and the earth cracking outside, followed by the sound of heavy snowfall.
This is the mechanical dragon's wake-up bell.
The demon Lin Qiu kicked decisively, and kicked the killing gun completely into the dragon's heart. In an instant, red liquid splashed out and turned into hot crystal after landing on the ground.
At first, the heart implanted with the auxiliary machine was still beating tenaciously, but the Death Thorn Spear itself had a special attack effect on the heart. The Killing Spear, which was modeled after the Death Thorn Spear, was naturally not inferior in power and destructive power, and eventually the mechanical assistance became ineffective.
The heart gradually stopped beating and lost its original light, and the cave slowly changed from crimson back to the color of a snowy mountain.
According to the doctor, the cloned hearts scattered throughout the snow-capped mountains should only provide power to Mechanical Durin remotely, while Durin has his original heart on his body.
Lin Qiu canceled his transformation, took out the extra Death Thorn Spears from the system warehouse, and gave them to Barbara and the others.
"I'm sorry, Eula, Barbara, and Jean. I know you're not good at using spears, but today, I have to ask you to play the role of spearmen." Lin Qiu instructed, "Please find the heart of Durin that the doctor cloned and stab these spears into it. This way, we can stop it."
"What about you?" Barbara asked worriedly.
Lin Qiu looked at his belt and replied, "I will stab the one on its body and fight it in the process to prevent it from destroying Mondstadt."
Barbara wanted to say something, but at this moment, an unprecedented strong vibration came, and the vibration was no longer accompanied by an avalanche, but the sound of cracking rocks and a huge monster flapping its wings. This was the sound of the mechanical dragon taking off into the sky.
Mechanical dragon, start!!!
"There is no time left, everyone. This concerns the survival of Mondstadt... no, Teyvat. I'm leaving Durin's heart in your hands." Before leaving, Lin Qiu added, "You have my Yin-Yang shield on you, so don't worry about the battle. Please stab the dragon's heart accurately!"
After delivering the three Death Thorn Spears, Lin Qiu released his magic power and sprayed flames out of the cave.
……
Since Heartsea is not in Mondstadt, Lin Qiu must plan his remaining magic power well, instead of doing it as he pleases like he did when fighting Mechanical Osel.
Otherwise, once the magic power in his body runs out, he will lose the right to fight for the sky.
Just relying on demonic jumps and throwing of killing guns is far from enough to fight against the mechanical dragon, which can be seen from the strength of mechanical Osel.
After all, Mechanical Osel is so powerful, and the doctor who created Mechanical Durin is much more stable and crazy than the doctor in Liyue, so this guy's creation should not be underestimated.
Not long after flying, Lin Qiu saw the doctor's creation. Rather than calling it the magic dragon Durin, it would be better to call it an aerospace mothership.
If the East Wind Dragon Tevarin is taken as a benchmark, the size of Durin who can fight with it will not be much larger than the East Wind Dragon. However, the mechanical Durin modified by the doctor can, at the smallest, carry a football field and a basketball court on its back.
