Chen Rui only said three "ideas" and it changed Master Toto's attitude toward him.
First, this Gundam … Uh, puppet, can it be designed and tested separately according to its function type? For example, defense, attack, speed. Also, can it transform into a demonic beast to facilitate fighting or marching?
Second, that missile … No, can the magic crystal cannon's launch be attached with a tracking function to lock the target?
Third, although the magic crystal cannon's mobility is poor, it can be designed as a defensive object that can move freely like a carriage. If it is equipped with the magic crystal cannon, can it become a mobile attack fortress? Oh yeah, let's call it a tank …
Master Toto was a pure technical person, so he wasn't ashamed to ask. He quickly took a pen and asked while recording, like a small reporter following the team for an interview. Although Chen Rui was a layman in machinery, his unconstrained "creativity" shocked Master Toto. You can learn if you're not skilled, but creativity is a natural inspiration. You can't even plagiarize it (someone was embarrassed).
After some discussion, with Chen Rui's ideas and the "contribution" of a few physics knowledge, Master Toto's eyes glowed. He no longer questioned the word genius. This was a true all-around genius. It was the same in any field.
Sabrina originally wanted to use the relationship between the crystal dragon and Chen Rui to win the challenge. She didn't expect Chen Rui could really rely on his own ability to win the recognition of the most prestigious master craftsman in Mystic Valley. Maybe he could really win by then. She secretly gave Chen Rui a thumbs up. Seeing that the two of them were talking happily, she walked away to avoid disturbing them.
After learning that Chen Rui was also born in an unorthodox way and wasn't a disciple of a "righteous sect", Master Toto, who was originally from an "evil sect", had a better impression of Chen Rui. However, a good impression was one thing and the challenge was another.
Chen Rui's opponent this time was the Mystic Valley's commander, Norris, who was the dark elf who killed the former commander, Spanda, in the previous challenge. The Mystic Valley's challenge wasn't about combat power, but the content of a certain research.
The former commander, Spanda, "specialized" in beast-taming and mind domination. He belonged to the "biotechnology" talent. Norris defeated Spanda in his strongest field. In the end, Spanda died and Norris ascended to the commander's throne without any dispute.
"Master Toto, can you tell me the specific content of the challenge?"
Toto's answer surprised Chen Rui a little. The scope could be the research field of "machinery" or "biology". The specific content was not limited. Judging from the situation of the last challenge, it should be decided by the challenged. The time when Norris won the commander's position was a challenge. It was to lock two people and a beast in a closed magic circle. They used mind domination, spirit or various magic and secret techniques to control the beast to attack the opponent.
The rule was that they couldn't kill the beast or attack the opponent directly. Whoever died first would lose. So this kind of challenge was also called a death match.
The beast was the highest research result of the Mystic Valley. It was a terrible half-demon half-beast creature that had been transformed. It was bloodthirsty and manic, and its combat power was quite strong. At present, it was only a semi-finished product. It was extremely difficult to control. Even if the beast-taming or mind control reached the top level, it would be difficult to control it.
In that duel, Norris and Spanda used all their skills. Finally, under the control of Norris, the beast tore Spanda into pieces, and Norris won the final victory.
Chen Rui was secretly shocked. This kind of challenge was not a real fight between two people, but the degree of cruelty was beyond that. It was the same in any field. Winner takes all. Only the fittest survived.
"Norris is proficient in dark magic, curses and mind control. It is estimated that this challenge is likely to use the content of the last one. You have great potential to become a guru, but there are specializations. In this aspect, you are definitely no match for him. I suggest you don't participate in the challenge. You can come directly to the Mystic Valley. I will appoint you as the deputy chief craftsman! "
Master Toto had good intentions, mainly because he couldn't bear to see the future guru who was also a talent with "scientific research" potential die prematurely. The position of the deputy chief craftsman was also in desperate need of talent. As a matter of fact, the dual-specialized mechanic master Horford that Izola brought was only an ordinary "project leader". Someone like Chen Rui was one of a kind.
Chen Rui couldn't really stay here to be a mad scientist, so he naturally wouldn't accept this kindness. However, he asked calmly, "Master, if these experiments are successful, the entire Demon Realm will be turned upside down. There will be a war by then …"
"Yeah!" Master Toto's eyes were shining, "Yes, by then, these new weapons can come in handy! It will definitely cause unexpected lethality! Even a Demon Overlord may be exhausted to death! This is simply a great success of epoch-making significance! My name, Toto, will be recorded in the history of the Demons! Haha … "
Chen Rui said a few more words indirectly, but it made Master Toto even more excited. He was completely immersed in the great vision of being worshipped by the future generations. Chen Rui finally understood that this Master Toto was a fanatic type. To persuade him to change his idea of being famous in the "history of science" was probably more difficult than persuading a demonic tiger to become a vegetarian. I can be famous for eternity or be infamous for thousands of years. As for maintaining the peace of the universe, screw it.
This "reminder" made Master Toto look at the future deputy chief craftsman more pleasing to his eyes. He showed him around for a while. Finally, Sabrina left the Mystic Valley with Chen Rui in satisfaction.
Sabrina saw Chen Rui was silent along the way, so she thought he was afraid after knowing the cause of Spanda's death. She comforted, "Master, don't worry. Today, we're mainly testing and letting you have a general idea in your mind. It just so happens that I saw you talking about the large puppets just now. We just need to ask Sir Jacob to help us formulate the challenge content related to this, then we can win safely. "
"Madam, there's no need to change the content …" Chen Rui shook his head. Puppets and whatnot, it's fine to brag about it, but it definitely won't work if it's really tested. Even though he had recorded a lot of relevant data with [Deep Analysis], he wasn't good at biology or that kind of machinery. Even with [Deep Analysis], he couldn't really understand it at once, so it naturally couldn't stand scrutiny.
On the contrary, the most likely challenge had some hope. He didn't know if that kind of beast could be communicated with with [Analytical Eyes]. However, judging from the situation described by Master Toto, the beast should be a kind of fighting machine that only had killing instinct left. The possibility of communication was extremely small. The "God-Eating Mask" should be able to make the beast into a puppet, but the number of puppets had reached the upper limit of two. Fatilu definitely couldn't be abandoned, so he could only abandon the chess piece, Snowden, who was far away in the Red Spirit Estate. It was just that he must wear a mask on his face when performing the puppetry. In this way, the "God-Eating Mask" would be exposed. Now, there was only one method that was more reliable, which was the black territory power that he learned from Shura. There were control attributes in it, such as control, chaos and so on.
"The content won't be changed?" Sabrina was taken aback. Chen Rui was from the Nightmare Valley, and he was highly valued by her uncle, Manu. If he died in the Mystic Valley because of her, Manu would never let it go.
"These few days, I have to calm down and think about how to help madam win this challenge."
Sabrina noticed that he didn't just say it casually. After all, this matter was a matter of life and death, so it couldn't be treated as a joke. She secretly wondered if this Master Arthur still had a powerful mind control skill?
Sabrina thought for a while and said, "Alright, I won't interfere much. I'll leave everything to you, master. Just let me know if you need anything."
"I'm just about to tell madam that I need to trouble madam to gather some materials. The more the better and the faster the better. I need to make an item to deal with the challenge 6 days later."
Most of the materials listed by Chen Rui were rare materials for making Thunderous Sound. There were even many of them. Some were aura conversion materials. Anyway, it would be a waste not to take advantage of him at this critical moment.
When Sabrina heard the names of these materials, she frowned slightly, but she didn't doubt it because the challenge was related to Chen Rui's life. She thought for a while and pointed out that there were one or two items that couldn't be gathered. This was already better than Chen Rui imagined. He believed that at this time, Sabrina wouldn't be perfunctory with him.
Just like that, Chen Rui returned to the Nightmare Valley. The effect of the grand master-level healing potion was indeed extraordinary. Freya's hand had basically recovered, but she still seemed very cautious when she saw him. Chen Rui comforted her a few words and began to train in the lab.
Seven days passed in a flash. Finally, it was time for the Mystic Valley's challenge.
As Chen Rui expected, Norris, as the commander, chose the previous challenge content, which was the death match of controlling the mad beasts.
In the Mystic Valley, the crystal dragon, Jacob, personally came to the scene as the arbitrator. On both sides were Sabrina and Izola. The people in the Mystic Valley were usually immersed in their work. It was rare for there to be such an exciting challenge. Except for those who couldn't leave, the rest came to watch the fun.
Norris was Izola's confidant. He was a dark elf with a mutated bloodline. His strength had reached the early stage of the Great Demon King level. Based on the analysis of his comprehensive strength value, he was a magician. This reminded Chen Rui of another Great Demon King in the Dark Moon, Skye.
If it was a direct one-on-one battle, with Chen Rui's combat power and those attributes of anti-magic, he could easily kill Norris (of course, under the premise of exposing his strength). However, the challenge today wasn't a direct fight. Instead, it was controlling the mad demons to attack the opponent. Once he failed, his life would be in danger.
In terms of strength, "Arthur" was only at the early stage of the Demon King level while Norris was at the early stage of the Great Demon King level. He was proficient in control techniques and had a record of defeating the former commander, Spanda, so the chances of winning were much higher. Almost everyone was optimistic about Norris.
Norris glanced at Chen Rui and smiled cruelly, "The top genius mechanic master of the Demon Realm? The person most likely to become a grand master? You're the one who's courting death. After you're torn into pieces by the mad beasts, let's see how you become a grand master! "
Before Chen Rui could refute, a cold voice sounded, "Master Arthur, just try. With me here, you'll be fine no matter whether you win or lose."
Norris' smile froze on his face. The one who spoke was today's arbitrator, the strongest Demon Overlord in the Crystal Valley, crystal dragon, Jacob.
This is still an arbitrator? He's already "blowing the whistle" before it even starts!
Jacob didn't care so much. Master Arthur was the key figure in modifying the recovery magic circle, and he was also his important servant in the future. Nothing must happen to him. As for the outcome of these two women, it had nothing to do with me!
