Chapter 1259: You call this a puppet?
In Zhu Tian Wan Jie, puppets are extremely luxurious treasures, but the puppet that the Artifact Master Alliance elder just pulled out...
With Dongfang Hong's eyesight, it's naturally not hard to see that this damn thing is practically a defective product, trash.
Look at those details, it's ridiculously rough, and what the hell material are you using?
"Um... may I ask what the raw material of this puppet is?"
"Black iron."
Huh???
"Black iron?" Upon hearing that, Dongfang Hong was dumbfounded—you actually used black iron to make a puppet?
Although this black iron is indeed a material for forging weapons, damn it, it's a low-grade material.
For low-level cultivators at the Sensory Qi Realm and Meridian Opening Realm, using black iron to make some weapons is passable, after all it's sufficient for that realm.
But using it to make a puppet? That's going too far.
He opened his mouth, and Dongfang Hong continued to ask.
"Then what is this puppet's strength?"
"Oh, it's almost zero; even a Body Refining Realm cultivator can easily destroy it."
Huh???
This left Dongfang Hong completely speechless—damn, even a Body Refining Realm cultivator can destroy it; what's the point of making such a puppet? You're just bored.
Dongfang Hong naturally didn't know that the Artifact Master Alliance elder had also created a Mìfǎ specifically to match this puppet.
Indeed, without this Mìfǎ, this puppet is basically useless—it can't even match a Body Refining Realm cultivator; what use could it have?
The Body Refining Realm is the threshold for cultivators, the start of the Xiūliàn path.
"Everyone, please stay calm."
The Artifact Master Alliance elder formed hand seals, and quickly established a connection with the puppet before him.
Everyone else knew what was going on, but Dongfang Hong was completely baffled.
What is this for? Are you blessing the puppet?
"Now is............?"
"This is a Mìfǎ created by the Artifact Master Alliance elder; it can establish a connection with this puppet, not only allowing simple control of its movements but also enabling shared vision."
Huh???
Damn me, this is damn heaven-defying.
Upon hearing that, Dongfang Hong stared blankly at the puppet before him, which looked like scrap copper and rotten iron.
Originally this puppet wasn't much stronger than a pile of scrap iron, but with this Mìfǎ, its controllability is much greater.
Do the people of Haotu Shijie have something wrong with their brains?
Moreover, Dongfang Hong couldn't have imagined that this puppet could have such a use; how did you come up with this?
Looking at the Artifact Master Alliance elder with his eyes tightly closed, Dongfang Hong inwardly cursed—no, he praised.
You're really a genius.
At this moment, under the control of the Artifact Master Alliance elder, the puppet limped along, extremely unnaturally, walking toward the Demon Cave's exit.
"Damn, you're too lazy to even bother with walking?"
Watching the puppet's arduous advance, Dongfang Hong couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
Even if you're trash, at least get the basics right.
But the Artifact Master Alliance elder obviously doesn't care about these things; anyway, sending this puppet out basically means it won't come back, so he never expected it to return.
So many details are roughly fine; why be so picky? After all, it's all about cost—cost must be controlled.
From the moment the Artifact Master Alliance elder conceived this puppet, what he valued most was cost.
So he didn't pay attention to those minor details.
Just like now, having just reached the exit and not yet stepped out, with a clang, the puppet's entire left arm fell off.
Huh???
Seeing this, everyone's faces darkened; they had only taken a few steps—probably not even ten—and lost an arm?
"I'm asking, can this thing even work? Don't fall apart before you even get out."
Yun Xiantai said somewhat dissatisfied, "How could your hand just fall off? Didn't you reinforce it when you built it?"
Dongfang Hong expressed deep agreement, "Yeah, at first glance it looks like it's 'about to die'."
Hearing that, the Artifact Master Alliance elder couldn't help but blush.
"Cost, there's no way around it—worrying too much about cost just drives it up."
"Besides, it's just one arm; it shouldn't affect anything, right?"
That's what he said—it's just one arm; anyway, no one expected this puppet to fight; as long as it can walk out of the Demon Cave and let everyone know what's outside, its mission is accomplished.
So, losing an arm doesn't seem like a big problem.
"Alright, hurry up and see what's outside now."
"Sure."
Hearing Yun Xiantai's words, the Artifact Master Alliance elder again controlled the puppet to move forward; the exit was already not far away.
But as he set down a step, another clang rang out, and everyone instantly went numb.
Damn, the left leg is gone? Having lost a leg, the puppet staggered and collapsed straight to the ground.
That fall scattered a bunch of parts.
Just losing an arm wasn't a big deal, but now you've lost an entire leg—damn, can it still walk?
Not just one hand and one foot—this fall actually knocked off half of the puppet's body.
"What do we do now?"
Yun Xiantai's face darkened as he looked toward the Artifact Master Alliance Elder and asked.
Now we can't even stand up—how are we supposed to go to the Demon Realm?
Hearing this, the Artifact Master Alliance Elder's face flushed red, and he forced himself to speak.
"It's not a big problem."
"Huh???"
"It's come to this, and you still say it's not a big problem?"
The completely numb Dongfang Hong didn't know what to say anymore—it wasn't like he had just walked a few steps back and forth; your puppet is about to fall apart, and you still call this not a big problem?
"What kind of shoddy counterfeit product is this you've made?"
Dongfang Hong knew this puppet was trash and useless, but he never imagined it could be this bad.
This probably doesn't even need the demons to act—a gust of wind could blow it away.
The Artifact Master Alliance Elder didn't know what Dongfang Hong was thinking; after his words fell, he continued to keep his eyes tightly shut, and then everyone's faces darkened—only to see the puppet, with only half its body left, begin to crawl bit by bit toward the exit............
"Exactly, it's crawling—moving with one hand and one foot."
"Although slow, it is indeed wriggling on the ground, advancing bit by bit."
"Faced with this scene, everyone's expressions were complex, their hearts filled with myriad feelings—do they really have to go out? Can they not go?"
Even Ye Zhangqing saw in this puppet a stubbornness and perseverance, a feeling of being physically crippled yet steadfast.
"Damn, this puppet makes me want to cry."
"Just then, the Artifact Master Alliance Elder added:"
"Just watch—if you go slower, it'll be fine."
"Huh???"
"Upon hearing that, everyone's mouths twitched—'What are you saying?' Yun Xiantai's face darkened, and he said impatiently:"
"Hurry up."
"Okay, I'll try, but this thing just can't go any faster."
The Artifact Master Alliance Elder nodded, doing his best to speed up the puppet's wriggling.
