Chapter 243 Unit-01
Jiang Xia had seen the spiritual wooden puppets in Mo Shuang Mountain with his own eyes.
Those puppets used to make low-level magical instruments are crudely made and can only meet the needs of free movement and patterned work, much like primary industrial robots.
Lao Jiang couldn't determine whether Mo Shuangshan had combat puppets, but he guessed that there should be some.
But the art of Mo Wu has been lost.
Even if Mo Shuangshan really made combat puppets, they were definitely not authentic Mohist guards, and could not cooperate with the Mohists in combat. At most, they could be used to deploy human wave tactics when attacked.
The spirit stone figurines of various shapes scattered throughout Mo Shuang Mountain are also used for the same purpose.
But that is obviously not what Jiang needs.
He believes in the principle of "better to have nothing than to have something inferior". Since he already has the production method of the authentic Wuwei, why should he use defective products?

Amid the sound of mechanical collision, the left arm of the executor robot was completely removed. This was the last part to be taken out. Now, only the torso of the robot was left lying on the workbench.
Jiang Xia was sitting on another workbench nearby. There were carving knives on the tips of the five fingers of his left hand. The tools of a small drill popped out, and he was engraving ink symbols on the disassembled left arm of the robot.
In front of his left eye's field of vision, the structure diagram of the human-X Wuwei on the Tianji Ink Book was also moved to the position of his left arm, with the engraving positions of forty-six different ink symbols marked on it.
Uh, don't get me wrong.
This is not about using ink symbols to increase the destructive power of the robot.
We are far from that point yet.
This was only the first step in Wu Wei's production, engraving ink symbols for controlling the puppet. Including the forty-six ink symbols on the left arm, the workload of this work reached a staggering 370 engravings.
If a rune is carved incorrectly, it will affect the quality of the finished product and it will have to be thrown away and started over.
Fortunately, with the help of chip data planning, Lao Jiang can engrave according to the records in the Tianji Ink Book, and with the accurate "copy" of the left-hand prosthesis, there will be no problem at this step.
He made it slowly.
Since it was the first time, not only did I have to complete the production, but I also had to learn in the process. At least I had to know the effect of each of the 370 ink symbols.
Understand why you use it in this position and not in others.
It is important to have thorough knowledge.
Because the Tianji Ink Book has already made it very clear at the beginning of the Mo Wu chapter.
No two martial guards in the world are exactly alike. According to the different focuses and needs of the Mo warriors, each carefully crafted martial guard will use different combinations of Mo symbols to achieve different effects.
The set of ink talismans that Lao Jiang has reproduced now is just for new disciples to practice with. It is the most basic, simplest, most comprehensive, but also the most mediocre combination.
“This fully proves that every Mo warrior is actually a qualified Mo Fu master. I originally thought that the three Mohist arts were calculated separately, but I made the Hun Tian Magic Cube and gained insights when making tools.
Plus now that I’m making Wu Wei for the first time, I understand this.”
Jiang Xia thought:
"These three arts have different branches, but the foundations are the same. They are all based on the proficient understanding and mastery of the Five Elements Ink Talisman. The so-called distinction and emphasis of the three arts is for the Ink Talisman Master.
For the disciples, there is no such thing as branch learning... stupid understanding is not enough to reach that high level.
The Mohist doctrine is all-encompassing. The difficulty of controlling the five elements of ink symbols alone is like a universe on your fingertips. The official authorities really discourage it.
Not for idiots. "
While Old Jiang was complaining, he continued to carve the ink symbols at hand.
Still reviewing Mo Wushu's knowledge in front of me.
According to the standard process of making this Wuwei, the Mo warrior must first use his skilled mechanical skills to find the best spiritual materials and make a prototype of the puppet before he can engrave the Mo rune.
Just don't care much about the material.
Wood will do, steel will do, and according to the records in the Tianji Ink Book, there was even an Ink Warrior who used fine jade to make spell guards, which fully proves that the Ink Warrior Guards are extremely inclusive.
But for Jiang, this step can be skipped.
The new executor robots made by Emma's Immortal Society are quite mature bionic designs. When they were attacked in Blackhand Town before, it was proven that there were no problems with their structure.
This is the culmination of wasteland engineering mechanics.
In terms of exquisiteness and practicality, it is in no way inferior to the Wuwei structure recorded in the Tianji Ink Book, and the robots produced by modern technology are more in line with Lao Jiang's aesthetic views.
He likes this kind of steel creation that exudes a futuristic sci-fi atmosphere.
Just like, which man doesn't like a certain iron man? That cool suit of armor is the dream of every man.
"The engraving will be complete in another hour. Now let's start thinking about the next stage, manipulation."
Jiang Xia let his left arm continue working, and picked up a cigarette from the table with his right hand and lit it. As the smoke rose, he squinted his eyes and looked at the bluish-white jade beside him.
This thing is called the Spiritual Jade.
It is the kind used by the Wood Spirit Puppets of Mo Shuang Mountain. It collects residual souls and nurtures them, and allows the residual souls to receive commands and act. Since it only has this one function, the production of this jade is not difficult.
The first task for Lao Jiang and his companions after they entered the inner sect was to maintain the wooden spirit puppets and at the same time learn how to make spiritual jade.
It is equivalent to a small magic tool. The only difficulty is that in addition to the five elements of ink symbols, a "Yin Symbol" must be added. This is considered advanced knowledge of ink symbols.
In addition to gold, wood, water, fire and earth, there are also yin and yang symbols, which make up the Yin Five Elements and Yang Five Elements, allowing the Five Elements Ink Talisman to have more variations, but new disciples will definitely not learn this.
Just learning the Five Elements Ink Talismans was enough to give them a headache.
"This can replace Emma's 'Human Brain Data Unit'."
In the quiet cellar, there was only the slight sound of the left arm prosthesis moving. Jiang Xia looked at the empty spiritual jade in his hand and thought:
"The only difficulty now is how do I connect the soul and the mechanical data signal together? Well, Emma seems to be facing the same problem.
The method she chose was to try to digitize the soul, converting it directly into mechanical data signals, using robots as nodes for uploading and downloading.
Wow, it’s really simple and crude, yet surprisingly easy to use.
But I...
I am luckier than her. In the Bitterwood Realm, in addition to technology, I can turn to more mysterious powers for help. "
Jiang Xia blew out a smoke ring, raised his head and looked at the white circle of light from the spotlight above his head.
As the smoke rose, he thought:
“In the records of Mo Wushu, there is a secret manipulation technique called ‘Mind and Body Knot’, which requires the support of Yin Five Elements Mo Fu, and there is also a simpler and less scientific thing called ‘Pulling Thread Knot’.
According to the ink book, through continuous sacrifice and training, and continuous strengthening, when the human X Wuwei is strengthened to the level of the earth pivot Wuwei, it will be connected with the ink warrior's mind.
All one needs to do is to actively kill the enemy with a thought, but that is too slow. If one has to practice one by one, when will the Wuwei army be formed?
Moreover, practicing with divine thoughts, when the minds are communicating, will also put me at risk. Once the martial guards are destroyed, my soul will also be damaged.
This risk is too great. Before making a more powerful Earth Pivot Guard, don't consider this! As for the Heavenly Secret Guard that can move freely like a living creature, it is even more distant, like a legend.
Um……
Maybe I can learn something from Emma.”
"Click"
The prosthetic left arm stopped functioning, and the ink symbols on the robotic arm in front of him were engraved. Lao Jiang stood up, picked up the robotic arm, and walked towards the workbench.
He thought:
"First, I need to capture a complete, thinking soul and put it into the spiritual jade. It doesn't matter if it's human or a monster. It will then be able to receive my orders and fight for me.
Use chips to lock their loyalty, and if there is any rebellious behavior, the robot body will be locked immediately.
A perfect transition system.
As for the conversion between soul signals and mechanical data signals, let's put this question aside for now. After Lao Wang completes the conversion formula between spiritual energy and electrical energy, I will throw this question to him.
Or you can wait patiently for Emma's evil research to bear fruit, and then snatch it away!
Perhaps, both of them can give me some surprises.”
"Click"
After the mechanical arm with the ink symbol was engraved, it was installed on the robot. Lao Jiang then popped out the small tool in his left hand and began to engrave on the robot's torso.
This work lasted for forty-five minutes. After the last notch was completed, Jiang Xia rubbed his eyes and took a step back.
He looked at the headless robot lying on the workbench in front of him, looked it over, then activated the robot's internal energy. The green energy rings on the headless robot's arms, legs and torso ignited one after another.
But because it has no central control system, it cannot move, just like a vegetative person with cerebral palsy.
"Try it first."
Jiang Xia moved his left and right hands, put the two black iron rings he had made earlier on the index fingers of his left and right hands, poured spiritual power into the rings, and then closed his eyes.
The Yin Five Elements Formation engraved on the surface of the ring was lit up.
Mo martial arts: body and mind bond, activated!
"Shua"
The next moment, the 370 ink symbols engraved on the limbs and torso of the headless robot lying on the workbench also flashed a faint light.
Then, the headless robot stiffened its body, as if it had come alive, and sat up with its hands on the workbench.
Lao Jiang maintained the action of casting the spell.
His soul sank into the sea of consciousness, still in his body, but with the magical connection of Mo Wu's body and mind knot, he controlled the Wu Wei in front of him, just like a naughty kid holding a remote control and playing with a robot toy.
It's like a VR holographic game.
The 370 ink symbols on the robot's body replaced the five senses of the human body at that moment, transmitting the alienated perception to Lao Jiang's soul.
It was as if Jiang Xia had a new body.
"First, do a set of punches to test its flexibility."
As soon as Lao Jiang's mind moved, the headless robot in front of him immediately jumped off the workbench, moved its limbs, and under Lao Jiang's control, performed a set of military boxing in an orderly manner.
Because of the Eternal Life Society's superb bionic design, the robot's movements when punching are extremely smooth, without any lag at all, just like a martial artist who has practiced martial arts for many years.
After completing a set of punches, Lao Jiang became more and more proficient in controlling the body and mind knot.
The headless robot in front of him stretched out his hands, stood on tiptoe, and ran forward like the best gymnast. Then, using his legs to exert force, he rotated two and a half times in the air before finally landing steadily.
"good."
Jiang Xia was very satisfied, and then he dispersed the Mo martial arts skill, Body and Mind Bond.
He opened his eyes, withdrew his spiritual thoughts, and the Wuwei puppet in front of him also stopped moving.
“The mind-body knot is very useful. As long as the mind can hold up, this warrior can fight more than ten kilometers away from the main body. But the problem is that when maintaining the mind-body knot, the main body cannot move.
It is very useful for doing dirty work.
Now let’s try the more difficult string knot.”
Lao Jiang took a deep breath, raised his left hand, and the black ring on his index finger was infused with spiritual power. After a few breaths, his five fingers moved slightly like an artist manipulating a puppet.
The headless robot in front of him also moved at this moment.
But it seemed like it couldn't walk at all, its limbs had their own ideas, and as Lao Jiang moved his five fingers, it walked crookedly and ended up bumping its head against the wall.
"Oh, this is a little harder."
Jiang Xia looked at Wu Wei lying on the ground awkwardly. He touched his forehead and said:
“You need to practice more.
It is said that if this Pulling Thread Knot is used to a high level, one person can control more than ten warriors to fight. Above the Pulling Thread Knot, there is the more advanced Hundred Battles Knot, as well as the legendary magic Red Dust Knot. "
"But that's all for the future."
Jiang Xia walked forward, constantly making fine adjustments with his left hand, controlling the headless robot, walked back to the workbench, and lay down again.
He looked at the robot in front of him, his eyes shining, and said:
"The first test was successful."
"Hello, Unit-01, I have to give you a name to commemorate my beginnings in learning Mo martial arts... Since you don't have a brain, I'll call you the Headless Knight."
