After finalizing the deal with Lux, Jiang Yan left the exercise venue.

According to the transaction, he can blackmail Lux more research talents, at the cost of giving Lux an artificial meridian and a spiritual crystal to Lux for private research.

Of course, Lux can only do some simple research in private when he gets something. It is prohibited to spread it to others, and he cannot take the technology cracked from it for himself. He can register it with the Imperial Technology Bureau in exchange for meritorious achievements.

of.

Because of the need for confidentiality, Jiang Yan gave Lux only one finished product, but no relevant technical development information. Jiang Yan believes that Lux cannot develop something truly valuable. Because Jiang Yan

The most critical secret of this kind of Lingshu crystal is to seal the parasitic data-transformed soul bodies inside the crystal. This is the key to the automatic operation of Lingshu crystal.

The data-formed soul body equivalent to the "artifact spirit", the remaining so-called spiritual clutch crystal is at best just a crystal with a magic array engraved with the effect of the low-level "Meditation" technique, although it only takes this

The art formation in the crystal stone can still be automated to cultivate spiritual power, but this requires the user to take the initiative to control it.

Only those who can independently drive this kind of art array are those who understand the practice of "Meditation" by elves, and those who understand the practice of "Meditation" cannot do it; but for extraordinary people who already know how to practice, they come.

Although Jiang Yan engraved the "Meditation" art array in the crystal of Lingshu is a new art array, if you use this thing to cultivate spiritual power, the actual practice effect is not very good. After all,

The article "Meditation" in which Jiang Yan chose to make the prototype of the art is itself a very popular basic practice method, emphasizing general applicability rather than efficiency. It is okay to use it as an introduction, but this is definitely not a profound practice.

Dharma! For those extraordinary people who already know the way of cultivation, they can only be said to be useless.

If the advantage of "automation" is lacking in the practice of "automation", it would be better than relying on their own practice efficiency.

Therefore, unless Lux can imitate something similar to the data-transformed soul type created by Jiang Yan's superpower to replace the function of "artifact spirit", the only value of the Lingshu crystal to him is the "Meditation Technique"

》The relevant inspiration may be brought by the structure of the stylistic array.

If this old man could develop a new type of art formation that is more advanced and more efficient in assisting cultivation based on the ideas of the low-level art formation in the Lingshu crystal, Jiang Yan would be very happy because as long as the other party is the same

If he can develop it, Jiang Yan has the confidence to steal the other party’s technical achievements!

If Lux could really imitate the digitized transformation soul body similar to Jiang Yan's superpower without the help of Jiang Yan's superpowers, Jiang Yan would only imitate the numerals of the spirit body.

You will be even happier and then steal the other party's skills to enrich your knowledge.

As for another transaction object, the manufacturing technology of the ‘artificial meridian’ is difficult to imitate even if the technical information is shared, so Jiang Yan is not very worried.

In addition, Jiang Yan is willing to share these technologies with Lux, not only because he is not afraid of leaking secrets, but also has an accompanying purpose.

It is for this reason that the soul body of the "artifact spirit" in the spiritual crystal he handed to Lux was not removed in advance.

...

As Jiang Yan expected, after getting the material production technology of the "Spellent Engraving" circuit and a sample of Lingshu crystal from Jiang Yan, Lux hurriedly said goodbye to Jiang Yan and returned to his own private

laboratory.

Because of the confidentiality required during the transaction, these things can only be studied by him privately, so Lux directly dismissed his assistants who had helped him on weekdays and let the guards guard guard the door of the laboratory, and couldn't wait to put them in the lab

The Lingshu crystal was taken out and placed on the experimental bench, and the observation was carried out with some auxiliary instruments.

"So that's the case. Based on the spiritual power furnace heart, the reverse improvement was made in the art crystal according to the principles of "Basic Meditation", thus constructing a art formation model similar to the spiritual power furnace heart? With mental power and cells

Vitality is fuel, and after it is transformed and synthesized through the furnace heart, spiritual power is formed! However, from the perspective of the art array, it is still impossible to see how it operates automatically... Well? Wait, what is this?"

With further careful observation, Lux indeed discovered the digitized modified soul body in the standby state deep in the Lingshu crystal.

The reason why I didn't realize when I first got the Lingshu crystal was that it was because the difference between the data-transformed soul body transformed by Jiang Yan's supernatural powers and the ordinary soul was too big. If this soul body is not active,

If it gives people a very low sense of existence. They have almost no sensual components. As long as they restrain their soul breath, their existence will be like the weeds and stones on the roadside for people with natural perception.

, very inconspicuous.

Data-based souls with extreme control, if they want to perfectly restrain their breath without leaking the slightest, they are as simple and casual as humans eating and drinking water.

In fact, Lux can suddenly notice it now, partly because it is proactive.

After sensing Lux's view of his own vision, the level 0-level intelligent brain soul body in the Lingshu crystal actively turned into an "active" state, and the extremely weak soul aura appeared, and a light inside the Lingshu crystal also lit up.

A glimmer of light. After a closer look, you can find that it was a small silver-white light ball smaller than the fingernails.

At the same time, an invisible fluctuation of thought locked in Lux's direction and spread towards him.

The next moment, Lux felt a spiritual message contained in the fluctuations of the thoughts that came to him.

"If you find a suspected user, search permissions... permission confirmation! Hello, Dr. Lux, this machine has confirmed that you have temporary permissions for this machine. Do you have any instructions?"

This spiritual thought was heard in Lux's senses, which made him slightly startled. If he hadn't noticed that the other party's spiritual thoughts contained malice, he would have almost inspired the special intentions he had worn on his body.

The soul protection technique prepared for myself.

However, on the precaution, Lux was still prepared just in case. He silently raised his vigilance and looked at Lingshu Jing, asking, "What are you...?"

If it hadn't been for careful observation and the slightest breath leaked from the other party, Lux would have even wondered if this would be just a ball of special energy.

The silver-white light ball emits a slight slight fluctuation, and a thought was transmitted to Lux's senses again: "Answer: This machine is the auxiliary intelligent brain of Lingshu crystal, and its responsibility is to use Lingshu crystal

Those who provide help.

"What is the auxiliary intelligent brain? What can you do with the so-called help?" Seeing that this thing seemed to have no malice on the surface, Lux became curious and began to communicate with the other party.

"This machine is the 'intellectual brain', which is a 'props' that are made with certain wisdom based on the soul of a living creature as the raw material. You can understand it as an auxiliary elves; this machine can help the use of Lingshu crystallization

The user can better use the Lingshu crystal, such as automatically driving the Lingshu crystal to cultivate spiritual power for users.

After savoring the information given by the other party, Lux finally realized: "The reason why Lingshu crystal can operate automatically without relying on users is because you are controlling the crystal inside?"

"Yes."

"What else can you do besides automating the spiritual power cultivation array in the Lingshu crystal?"

"If the user is willing to give authorization, the machine can also control the spiritual power on behalf of the user, such as accelerating the construction of the artifacts he wants to release according to the user's wishes, or issuing it when the user cannot take it into consideration.

Call the alarm, or actively drive the force to protect the master, welcome the enemy, etc.

"So that's it..." Lux roughly understood what kind of existence this soul body was.

If what the other party said is true...

"You just said that you were made with soul as the material, so who is your maker? Jiang Yan?" He thought about it and asked another key question.

『Retrieve information... Sorry, this unit cannot answer this question.』

"Wow? This Lingshu crystal was given to me by Boy Yan. If it was made by Boy Yan, there is no need to hide it, right? Then..." Lux asked with a very curious look: "That is, say

Is your maker someone else?"

"Sorry, I can't answer." This level 0 intelligent brain neither denies nor acknowledges Lux's question, but still gives meaningless answers.

In fact, it really doesn't know, because when it was first created, its memory data was specially processed. Even if Lux wanted to use forced means to read its memory information, it would be useless.

of.

Let’s not talk about whether he can decipher the data format unique to Jiang Yan’s supernatural powers that are different from normal creatures. Even if it is deciphered, he will only get nothing.

"...tsk!" Lux, who secretly activated the "mental detection" type of technique, did not read any distracting fluctuations from the mind of the brain, so he could only give up.

This strange soul body clearly felt that the soul strength was not very strong. At least Lux did not feel any sense of crisis, but the other party always gave him a very strange feeling, not like a normal and wise person at all.

The creature of consciousness.

Lux, who temporarily gave up asking the maker's information, changed to a question he also cared about: "How did you get it?"

However, he heard a disappointed answer again.

"Sorry, this unit cannot answer this question."

"…Why?" Lux asked patiently.

"This machine does not have this information, so it cannot be answered."

"That is to say... you don't know either?" Lux asked.

"Yes."

“…Is there any confidentiality measure?”

Lux was not sure whether the other party told the truth, but at least the feedback from the detection method did not find any problem, but he was also a little uncertain whether his detection method could work on this strange soul body.

Because the other party gave him the feeling that he did not look like a normal biological soul.

However, from the small records of the ruins left by some civilized countries that have been destroyed in the past on this continent, Lux has seen something similar to the description. He remembers that it seems to be called "Energy Spirit".

of.

He wanted to ask if the other party had something to do with that kind of civilized country, but after thinking about the previous questions and questions, Lux gave up this futile move.

'No wonder boy Yan traded the Lingshu crystal so readily. It turned out that he had already taken insurance measures... But where did that boy get such a special soul body?' Lux frowned and thought:

'Is it a 'a strange god' again?'

"Hey, it's called... 'intellectual brain', right? Do you know the 'radical god'?" Lux asked tentatively.

『Retrieve...No such information.』

"Where is the 'Dream Lord'?"
