Chapter 1129 Industrial Shaman
This night was destined to be a sleepless night for Bran Fire Dancers, and Tagaroga is a terrifying existence for any native Mosan tribe.
Even though Leo said he didn't know whether the mysterious existence was Tagaroga, Bran Fire Dancer still believed in his judgment because the way that the mysterious existence attacked the caravan was the symbol of Tagaroga.
He was not without doubting that Leo was lying, but he could not think of the reason why Leo told such a lie. Moreover, he had a strange perception that could easily distinguish lies. Although this perception did not work every time, it failed few times, and he believed in his perception.
On the other hand, although Leo was not sure whether the mysterious existence was Tagaroga, he still followed Bran's idea and temporarily applied Tagaroga's name to the other party. After Bran calmed down, he asked: "Do you know why Tagaroga attacked you?"
"I don't know why Tagaroga was targeted by Tagaroga?" Bran also looked confused, and then said with a gloomy face: "But Tagaroga has always been considered a natural disordered incarnation. Nothing he does requires a reason, and he will do it if he wants to."
Leo shook his head, obviously disagreed with Bran's opinion, because he had had contact with Tagaroga at close range and knew very well that the other party was not the kind of madman who was willing to act, but Bran in front of him obviously didn't understand the situation, so he couldn't ask anything useful if he continued to ask.
Bran has determined that the mysterious existence of the attack on the caravan is Tagaroga. He is very glad that he and his caravan can survive the attack of Tagaroga, and have more speculations about Leo's identity, and even some doubts whether Leo Dodd in front of him will be the one from the Dodd group.
So, driven by curiosity, he asked: "May I ask, is your Excellency the Toran Dodd from the Dodd group?"
"No, I'm not Toran Dodd." Leo couldn't help but smile when he heard Bran's inquiry, shook his head, and then asked with interest: "Can you tell me about Toran Dodd?"
After Leo knew about the existence of the Dodd Group, he knew very well that the person who founded the Dodd Group was either Sylvia or Toran, so when he collected the information, he also tried to collect relevant information.
However, most of the information about Dodd Group he collected was just some public commercial information, and there was not much information about the senior management of Dodd Group. Even in the black market, there was no information about Sylvia, Toran, and Ailin after the fog year. Obviously, this should be Sylvia using his power and influence to prevent the leak of himself and Toran and his information.
This is not a good thing in Leo's opinion, because it means what Sylvia and the others are guarding against, and it also means that they have enemies or opponents that need to be concerned about.
Although the Fire Dancer Caravan has no close relationship with the Dodd Group, the caravan is engaged in some low-level daily necessities transactions and has almost no contact with the Dodd Group's main industrial products, as a large caravan that specializes in roaming the Kuishan Allied Powers, the Fire Dancer Caravan naturally needs to collect information on the Dodd Group, a commercial group that almost controls most of the economy of the Kuishan Allied Powers, in order to avoid conflicts with the Dodd Group's top leaders and cause unnecessary losses and troubles.
According to normal circumstances, it is impossible for Bran Fire Dancer to tell Leo the information he collected about Dodd's group, but because Leo saved the entire caravan, and the other party's surname is Dodd, and when he heard Toran Dodd's name, he showed that kind of close feelings, so he felt that Leo Dodd in front of him might have some close relationship with Toran Dodd, so he didn't have much concern and gave some of the information about Dodd's group collected by the Fire Dancer Caravan to Leo.
Leo has learned about the commercial achievements of Dodd Group from the information collected from the black market and other places. For example, it appeared after the fog year. The entire group is mainly industrial products. Almost half of the steam engines in each continent are produced from Dodd Group, including the steam locomotives on the railway around the mainland.
In recent years, the Dodd Group has also become interested in weapons trading, and has quickly become the only weapon supplier in many countries in the Mosanne. The weapons it produces have become one of the important commodities in the black market because of their cheap and durability. This is why the black market does not have the Dodd Group's non-public intelligence information.
In short, Dodd Group is the largest business giant that emerged after the fog year. There are not many commercial groups that can compete with Dodd Group so far, and most of those commercial groups have a strong country as support.
It is precisely because of the strength of the Dodd Group that intelligence information about the senior managers of Dodd Group is also the focus of the collection of intelligence departments in various countries. However, due to various reasons, there is very little information. Caravans like the Fire Dancer Caravan with a large tribe-supported caravan have not collected much information from the senior managers of Dodd Group, and most of these information are data that can be collected by intelligence departments in various countries.
For example, almost all the senior executives of the Dodd Group are people with extraordinary power, some of them are extraordinary people, but there are also some mutated clans and mutants. There are only a few normal ordinary humans, and those ordinary human senior executives are all in positions that are related to the outside world, such as press release officials.
As for the true master of the Dodd Group, the Fire Dancer Caravan can only collect some information about Toran Dodd, the founder of the Dodd Group.
Most of these information are some positions held by Toran Dodd in the Dodd group and some business decisions. There is only one thing that has nothing to do with business, that is, Toran Dodd once rejected the identity of the Selected by the Lord of the Sky Church, went deep into the wasteland alone, and became a shaman under the guidance of a hidden tribe.
This incident seems very absurd to many people, because shamans advocate nature, their beliefs and power come from nature, and they return to nature after death. Shamanism has always believed that industry is an existence that destroys nature, so they have been secretly obstructing the development of industry.
For example, there is no truly complete railway around the mainland in Mosan so far because of the influence of shamanic forces. The reason why the Fire Dancer Caravan only engages in daily necessities transactions with very low profits rather than those industrial goods transactions with extremely high profits is also because of the influence of shamanic beliefs.
However, the founder of the largest private industrial group in the world in Viron became a shaman, which was undoubtedly the biggest rebuttal and irony of the shamans' claims that industries would destroy nature in the past. Because of this reason, governments found excuses to refute that the Continental-ring railway plan of the Mosan continent was implemented.
However, in this way, Toran Dodd became the object of hatred by most shaman forces. Although the shaman forces did not dare to attack Toran Dodd directly for various reasons, some small actions against Dodd's group have never stopped. The substantial influence of Dodd's group has been limited to the Kuishan Allies so far.
However, there are people who oppose Toran Dodd, and naturally there are people who support Toran Dodd. Within shamanism, some shamans believe that the times have changed and the world has changed. If humans want to survive in this world where monsters are rampant, they must rely on more accessible and effective forces, such as the power of industry.
Even the stubborn shaman has to admit that the cold weapons produced through industry are sharper and more durable, and weapons such as steam crossbows can help the tribe resist monster attacks and reduce tribe casualties.
Therefore, some new shamans believed that since Toran Dodd could become a shaman, it means that nature also recognized that industry is part of nature. Therefore, these people quickly gathered together and established a not particularly large shamanic branch doctrine, proclaiming themselves as industrial shamans, and advocating the integration of industrial power into themselves.
Although the Fire Dancer tribe follows the teachings of ancient natural shamans, it is obvious that Bran Fire Dancer should be a new shaman who agrees with industrial shamanism. Therefore, he seemed particularly excited when he mentioned industrial shamans, and even completely forgot that Leo wanted information about Dodd's group, and instead introduced Leo to Leo's teachings of industrial shamans to Leo.
At first, Leo was not very interested in the industrial shaman doctrines mentioned by Bran. The reason why he did not stop Bran was because the shaman branch doctrine was related to his son. However, when he heard the more detailed introduction to industrial shamans, he felt inexplicably familiar. When he heard the industrial shaman install some mechanical devices engraved with mysterious inscriptions on him, he immediately felt amused and laughed, because most of the contents of the industrial shaman's teachings seemed to be from his random thoughts.
When he was in Black Castle, when Leo encountered a bottleneck in his research on psychic skills, he would put down his research and instead do other things to organize his messy thoughts. The thing he liked to do the most was to record some of his own ideas about steam machinery, extraordinary power and the composition of the world. Among these ideas are the prototype of industrial shamanism.
Leo once saw the mechanical device installed in the human body through existing medicine and extraordinary power in Milia. He also saw the mechanical maid who was almost as polarized as the mechanical industry in Hushang Town. Because he was a biochemical warrior, he cared about this matter very much, so he often had some related ideas. When he was in Black Castle, he sorted out his past ideas and wrote a complete plan.
In the plan, he explained in detail how much energy efficiency the human body can produce after combining mechanical devices, and wrote about the various criticisms that this practice would encounter in secular society. He also wrote about solutions and some self-judgment ideas, etc., which are the main contents of the current industrial shamanic teachings.
Leo even suspected that industrial shamans are actively implanting some steam machinery to make their bodies semi-industrial, which is also due to his other simulation plan on how to make mechanical strange objects, implant machinery to improve combat effectiveness, and eliminate rejection reactions after mechanical implantation.
The reason for this plan was that Sylvia mentioned that there were a large number of disabled veterans in the United Kingdom. Although these soldiers could receive some relief from the royal government, they were in a very bad life. If these veterans could be allowed to restore their combat power, they would be a considerable force.
The reason why Sylvia mentioned this to Leo was because she hoped that Leo could create a therapeutic agent that could treat disability, but Leo thought of using existing, relatively mature mechanical transplant surgery to implant more powerful and ergonomic mechanical devices to those disabled soldiers.
At that time, the mature mechanical prosthesis was almost all installed and was not convenient to use. Even if there was an implant, it was necessary to take some drugs with great side effects due to the rejection reaction of the body, which would seriously affect the lifespan. For example, if the old man Rembrandt had not had a special identity, he could often get priests from various churches and priests used divine techniques to clean up their bodies, and they might have died long ago.
The mechanical transplant plan deduced by Leo through the knowledge he has mastered is to make the transplanted mechanical device into a strange object. The extraordinary power of the mechanical magic object itself can reduce the rejection reaction, and at the same time, it can also allow the implanter to gain some power that only the extraordinary person has.
The entire mechanical implantation plan was completed very smoothly. With the support of a huge database, it took Leo less than half a day to complete the plan from conception to completion. However, after the plan was completed, Leo discovered that there was a huge loophole in his plan, that is, he forgot to calculate the tolerance of the implanted person.
This ability to withstand not only the physical and psychological ability of the implanter to adapt after implanting the mechanical object, but more importantly, whether the implanter can withstand the erosion of extraordinary forces continuously generated in the mechanical object.
In Leo's deduction in the spiritual world, even if he is an extraordinary person, it is difficult for him to withstand the erosion of the steam mechanical magic he created over the years. In the end, without exception, all of them undergo out-of-control mutations and become a half-human and half-mechanical monster.
It is precisely because of this that this plan was put on hold by Sylvia and was not implemented.
However, a drug specially developed by Leo in this plan to reduce the rejection of implants was attracted by Sylvia because it did not involve extraordinary power and was prepared to use it in the future.
