According to myths and legends, it was the gods who first used puppets. In order to restrain the living beings in the world, the gods created puppets that can make people lose their health one by one, and spread them all over the world. The ancestors of these puppets were called "Sick Demons", and it was by imitating them that they gave rise to today's puppets.

Golems need silk thread traction, and any puppet is just a piece of waste if it is not led by a puppeteer. So the alchemists tried to give the puppet a soul, and after a thousand failures, the puppet that could act on its own was revealed.

————————————————————————————————————

As Brian and his men left the Abomination Factory, several 'meaty' mud dogs chased them out and barked cutely, making people feel strangely comfortable. The subordinates took out a few bones and threw them at them, and they pounced on them to 'lick', not to mention more affection.

When it comes to creating abomination, there are always unusable scraps, so the assemblers use a blender to break up these small pieces of corpses, and then pinch plasticine to pinch out the 'meat' mud dogs, and infuse the souls of some canine creatures into them. Although the barks of 'meat' mud dogs are cute, their appearance is definitely not cute. Contrary to the skeleton dog, the 'meat' mud dog is a bunch of dark red 'color' and 'meat' sauce, the eyes are two 'meat'-'holes', no eyeballs, often lying on his stomach softly, even Walter 'Bo'le? Cullen, the necromancer, wondered if this guy was a relative of a ghost wolf or a flesh slime. Speaking of which, the 'Meat' Mud Dog is the third regular beast class after the Ghost Wolf and the Ghost Hound, but their combat effectiveness is far lower than that of the two close relatives.

Since the Flesh Slime is very fond of eating the Meat Mud Dog (which the player says is a perfect match for pasta), the puppies run back to the factory after chasing them for a while, after all, it is safe there.

After taking a shortcut, the two came to the puppet workshop.

His Majesty didn't originally want to build a puppet workshop, this thing is not in line with the development direction of the Necromantic Empire, not to mention the money burning, the rate of return is still very low, in addition to attracting some old nerds who have a strong interest in puppets, it can only add some prosperity to the city, it can be said to be the "chicken" rib of the "chicken" rib;

The puppet workshop is a small house with a chimney and a red roof, and the 'color' tone is the brightest in the "City of Waiting". In front of the 'door' are not statues, but two humanoid puppets that have been stripped of their intelligence cores and power sources. As soon as you walk in, you will see an old-fashioned wooden workbench with all kinds of gadgets that you think you have seen but can't name, and a slightly rusty lathe. A few old craftsmen wearing thick spectacles sat in front of the stage, carefully studying a few small parts that were difficult to see with the 'naked eye'.

Brian raised his chin, and his subordinates put the cursed doll that had been in their hands on the workbench: "Your Excellency, please check this puppet." ”

The desktop was 'messed' and 'messy' (although it was already 'messy' enough), and an old craftsman looked up and was about to scold, when he saw the doll with a resentful face, he exclaimed: "Senior puppet!" Hearing this, several other old craftsmen who were immersed in their work immediately raised their heads, and there was nothing in their eyes except for the puppet. They are all researchers from the Joint Research Center who are particularly interested in puppets, and high-level puppets are very attractive to them, after all, puppets and puppets are both man-made humanoid tools, and they have a lot in common.

Puppets are divided into three grades, low-level, intermediate, and high-level, among which high-level puppets have their own souls, can communicate with the puppeteer's heart, and fight more fiercely. The name of a high-level puppet doesn't sound loud enough, but the hero-level puppeteer only uses high-level puppets.

"It's not a high-level puppet, it's just a curse puppet with a will, and its strength is still very weak, but it has the 'nature' of growth, and maybe it can become a high-level puppet in a few hundred years." Brian's tone remained calm. High-level puppets must be at least level 65 or above, while Curse Dolls are only level 40.

"Director, how do you need us to check?" The old craftsman asked.

"See if she's got any traps or traps in her."

"Good!" As he spoke, the old craftsman reached out to break the mouth of the resentful doll, for this place is the easiest place to hide a mechanism. The chin of the puppet is generally made into a movable type, and this one is no exception, and when you open it, a black gas comes out of it, which makes the old craftsman cough a few times: "What a thick dead air!" ”

At this moment, the wall lamp suddenly turned on and off, as if a strong wind was blowing, but there was no wind here! The ghosts flashed outside the window, and everyone looked again, but there was no vision!

Brian approached and said to the open-mouthed cursed doll, "Do you like to pretend to be a god and 'mess' with ghosts?" ”

The cursed doll clicked her head and stared at Brian, the end of her black hair slowly lifting up as if defying gravity, trying to entangle Brian. Obviously in an extremely dangerous situation, Brian's eyes were still quiet. At this moment, Princess Suo'er's voice came from outside: "Uncle Brian! Where's my gift? Show me! ”

Brian took a step back and sighed: His Highness learned the news so quickly, it must be a letter from the Soul Fire Envoy, this little guy is really unreliable. Seeing this skeleton holding a book take a step back, the curse doll is also a lot more settled, with black hair hanging down, blank eyes, pretending to be like an ordinary doll, and first-class acting skills.

Sa'er had already rushed into the room, and when she saw the cursed doll, she jumped up in surprise, kissed Brian on the face, and then immediately snatched the doll from the old craftsman's hand. She stroked the doll's hair, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, and said with a smile: "Your hair is so long, just like a lettuce girl!" This story was told to me by my father, have you heard it? It doesn't matter if you haven't heard of it, I'll tell you about it tonight! I'll call you Lettuce Girl! ”

Cursed Doll (Lettuce Girl): This is a doll abandoned by its owner, full of resentment, and after a long time, its own 'spirit' imprint is born from resentment. Golem equipment (additional equipment), physical attack 50-70, physical defense 60-60, magic defense 50-50. Comes with black hair entanglement. Restores 1 durability per minute. The load is 20, and the durability is 100%. Requires 50 intelligence. The equipment is required to be a puppeteer, and level 40 is required. It must not be dropped, bartered, or damaged.

The black-haired Lettuce Girl can bind her target with her long hair, immobilizing them. Freeze for 5 seconds.

Brian was 'quite helpless' on the side, and suddenly sighed: "Your Highness, you are now a senior professional?" ”

"I only broke through yesterday, if only Dad left a few days late." Su'er pouted, a little lost. She suddenly stretched out her little finger and said to Brian very seriously: "Uncle, don't tell Dad, I'll surprise him when he comes back!" ～”

"Yes, Your Highness." Brian leaned over slightly, and also stretched out his hand to pull the hook with Sao'er.

Although His Royal Highness Suo'er has the blood of a necromancer and is intelligent and clever, and his combat effectiveness is stronger than that of combat professionals of the same level, for some reason, he has grown very slowly and stagnated at a low level for a long time. You want to fight the enemy to break through, but where is the right enemy? The Dusk Empire is like a rock reef in the wind and waves, and the enemies are all very big, either the Knights of the Iron Hoof, or the Bald Eagle and the Rock Trigger, Your Majesty will never let Su'er participate in the war. Over time, she has not progressed, and now that she has grown into a mid-level professional, Briynton is relieved that she is too old-fashioned.

"Then I'll go back first!" Su'er hugged the lettuce girl and smiled at Brian: "Come, goodbye to Uncle Brian!" ~" and ran away cheerfully.

Brian could see clearly that the lettuce girl had just clicked her jaw, leaving a smile that made her hair stand on end. After the princess left, he said to his subordinates: "Tell Jont to create more opportunities for His Royal Highness Rudy and Her Royal Highness the Princess to coexist." "Because of the relationship of the "Necromantic Lease Contract", now the capable combat professionals of the Dusk Empire have basically been hired, and there are not enough manpower, so it is impossible to keep an eye on Her Royal Highness the princess twenty-four hours a day; But Rudy is different, this distinguished guest has both time and willingness to accompany the princess, and has quasi-heroic strength, which is suitable to serve as the princess's bodyguard in every way. With Rudy here, a little cursed doll can't make any big 'waves'.

The subordinate nodded and said, "Your Excellency, you are so powerful, you think about everything so thoughtfully." ”

Brian shook his head: "Thank you, but even the bald eagle can't do it as a last resort, and I still have to learn." Alright, go tell the manager. ”

The subordinates retired. A few old craftsmen saw that they had nothing to do, complained a few words, and continued to indulge in those small parts, forgetting the whole world. Brian gently closed the door and left the puppet workshop.

Today was a quiet day, and in Brian's eyes, the tranquility was nothing more than an illusion. Whenever he looked into the distance, he felt a monstrous flood sweeping through the Twilight Empire, destroying all necromantic creatures; When the flood passed, the country ceased to exist. A strong sense of crisis has always lingered, and the only thing he can do is to stay calm and let the Twilight Empire continue to develop steadily.

Suddenly, a furious roar resounded through the sky! The soul fire that served as a street lamp was instantly dispersed by the power of the roar, and most of the city was plunged into darkness! With a sudden sound of wind, a man with a bag on his shoulders fell in front of Brian and walked angrily: "What about your dear majesty? Yes? Haven't come back yet?! ”

"Mr. Schroeder, Your Majesty has arrived at Gillyhills." Brian's soul fire was about to be extinguished under the dragon's might, but he still gritted his teeth and answered the other party's question lightly.

"Huh, avoiding me?" The other party raised a piece of human skin paper, and his originally handsome and amiable face became hideous and distorted: "I'll just say, how can you have spare money to buy corpses, it turns out that you made this ghost contract and fished out the 'door' under my nose!" Why didn't you let us know beforehand? ”
