This was similar to drawing a picture on a piece of white paper. It didn't take much time, but it wasn't easy to modify a painting full of graffiti and turn the graffiti into a painting that could be seen.
But the best way to make Crowits interested was to directly modify Crowits' work and turn the semi-finished product into a finished product.
Making a new finished product was good, but it was too advanced. Others could be fooled, but if Crowits saw it, he would definitely think that Lin Yun was the reincarnation of a God. Moreover, that old guy was a Peak Artisan, so it wouldn't be easy to fool him.
After the modifications were completed, Lin Yun took the Max Mana Reactor to Crowits' alchemy shop.
Crowits was still minding his own business and didn't even look at Lin Yun, acting as if no one had come in.
Lin Yun put the Max Mana Reactor in front of Crowits.
"Sir Crowits, did you make this Mana Reactor?"
Fluctuations flashed in Crowits' eyes as he glanced at the Mana Reactor with disdain and pride. He really didn't feel like paying attention to Lin Yun.
Lin Yun didn't wait for Crowits to answer and walked to the side, minding his own business. He looked at a Level 15 puppet next to him and put his hand on it. Mana surged and Lin Yun's hand turned into a shadow.
In less than a second, that puppet loudly turned into a pile of components that scattered on the ground.
An awkward expression flashed on Lin Yun 'face.
"Sorry, I was in the middle of dismantling it and made a mistake …"
Looking at the pile of components, Crowits raised his head and looked at Lin Yun's actions.
Dismantling a Level 15 puppet in a second … Crowits could see that Lin Yun's accomplishments in the field of puppeteering were pretty good. He was definitely an Artisan, and an Artisan very proficient in puppeteering.
To dismantle a puppet in a second, one needed to have a complete understanding of the puppet's structure, the position of each component, the mana reactor, the control system, the operating system, and so on. Covering it with mana and causing a mana resonance would instantly turn a complete puppet into components.
The puppets here weren't standardized, they were all casually made by Crowits. Even if they were casually made, they were a lot stronger than those of the same rank and had their own unique designs.
Lin Yun looked at the other puppet on the side and put his hand on the left side of its chest. He quickly opened that puppet's chest and removed the mana reactor in its left chest.
Crowits watched attentively. Lin Yun could tell with a glance that this puppet was different, and he could understand that this puppet was designed to use a heavy weapon in its right hand and a shield in its left hand. Its center of gravity was unstable, thus, the mana reactor was designed to be a bit biased towards the left side, increasing the mana intensity of the left side.
But when Crowits saw Lin Yun open that incomplete mana reactor and put a Level 10 fire mana crystal and a Level 10 ice mana crystal inside, he frowned.
'Damn, that guy, could it be that he wants to stuff that incomplete mana reactor into the puppet's chest?
'Arrogant guy, that mana reactor's design is decades ahead of this era. Even I can only do a design and concept, it simply can't be used as a normal mana reactor.
'Does he think I can't see the changes he made?
'What a mess, those new right-angle patterns have been messed up by him. Do you still want to use it under such circumstances?
'I'm afraid that the mana reactor will explode from the fierce reaction of the fire and ice mana crystals the instant I use it.
'The mana resistance of the fire and ice mana crystals is too strong, that's why the right-angle patterns were designed to limit the frantic flow of mana. What kind of mess did he make? According to those changes, the mana flow would be even faster and wouldn't have much of a restrictive effect.
'Forget it, forget it, that Dunas guy came yesterday to beg me not to provoke that human, so I'll just let him be.
'In any case, it's only two Level 10 mana crystals. Even if they explode, there won't be much power. With that human's strength, he shouldn't be injured.
'Even if this alchemy shop explodes, it doesn't matter. I don't plan on staying here any longer. I don't want that human to bother me every day and make it impossible for me to continue my research in peace.'
Crowits was fretful. The longer he stayed in the Grey Beastmen's fort, the more he didn't want to pay attention to his clansmen. He couldn't find anyone he had a common language with.
Even those Master Alchemists in the fort would talk like children playing with mud, childish and simple. The longer he stayed, the more he felt that the fort's alchemists were a group of idiots.
Especially as his rank increased and he became a Peak Artisan, Crowits became more and more reclusive. He moved to this remote place and didn't want to pay attention to anyone.
But after becoming a Peak Artisan, Crowits felt that his alchemy skills hadn't improved in the slightest.
His greatest wish, his only wish, was to become a Saint Alchemist, but he couldn't see any hope of becoming a Saint Alchemist.
He had designed many new things, and some designs even surpassed this era by over a hundred years, but none of them had succeeded.
That spherical mana reactor was the design he was most optimistic about. Not only was the pattern of the alchemy pattern subversive, but the core principle of the mana reactor was also completely new and subversive.
As long as the design was successful and the production was successful, he would be able to take the first step on the path to becoming a Saint Alchemist, the first step to surpassing the Artisan realm!
But he still hadn't succeeded.
Seeing this scene, Crowits thought of many things and felt very complicated. In the end, he didn't stop Lin Yun and only silently raised a Mana Shield to resist the power of the mana reactor's explosion.
Lin Yun quickly installed the mana reactor and closed the puppet's open chest.
After a second, the puppet's two crystal eyes suddenly shone and it slowly raised a foot before taking a step forward.
Seeing this scene, Crowits' eyes instantly widened and his mouth opened wide. His mana fiercely fluctuated.
Looking at that level 15 puppet, he was shocked as if he was looking at a living God.
"It can actually move … It actually didn't explode … It can actually operate normally …"
Crowits mumbled to himself, his eyes firmly staring at that puppet that was slowly taking a step forward.
A second later, Crowits seemed to have suddenly recalled something. His sparse hair and thin body seemed to burst out with explosive power that was even stronger than a Sword Saint's. He kicked the table in front of him and jumped up as if his buttocks had been stabbed by the tail of a Devil.
That thin body carried an unstoppable momentum as if he had seen his father's murderer. He gnashed his teeth as he rushed in front of that puppet.
He touched that puppet with one hand, and berserk mana surged as he violently dismantled that puppet. He then used a large amount of mana to protect the mana reactor sphere.
Two Mana Hands appeared out of nowhere and swept the puppet's components to the side. The surrounding shelves were all swept away by the Mana Hands, creating a large empty space. He then grabbed a new low level puppet and flew over.
Crowits looked as if he was possessed. He quickly dismantled that puppet's mana reactor and casually threw it to the side, not even looking at it. He then carefully put that heavily protected mana reactor into the puppet's body as if he was taking care of a baby.
After setting it up, he carefully checked it three times before activating the puppet with a hopeful expression.
After a second, the puppet's eyes shone and the silent runes on its body shone one after the other.
Everything showed that the alchemy puppet was operating normally, it couldn't be any more normal.
Crowits turned around, his expression rapidly changing. One moment he was bitter, the next moment he was ecstatic.
"How did you do it? This … How did you do it … "
Crowits mumbled to himself, his eyes emitting a frightening light. It was like a starving person seeing a piece of fragrant bread.
Lin Yun's heart skipped a beat as he was startled by Crowits' fanatical gaze.
"Didn't I tell you before? As long as you join my team of alchemists, you'll be able to understand many new things and learn many advanced concepts. You'll be able to come into contact with them.
"For example, this mana reactor with full right-angle patterns. If you join my team of alchemists, you'll be able to learn the details …"
Lin Yun didn't have time to finish his words before Crowits rapidly rushed into the shop and packed a few tools before leaving the shop.
Crowits only reacted when he reached the door. Lin Yun was still inside.
"Why aren't you leaving?"
Lin Yun was stunned, he couldn't keep up with Crowits' rhythm.
"Leaving?"
Crowits' eyes were fanatical.
"To join your team of alchemists!"
Lin Yun turned around and glanced at the alchemy shop. There were all kinds of components and designs inside.
"Aren't you going to take the things in this shop?"
Crowits didn't even look at them as he casually answered, "Throw them all away.
"Throw them all away. Whoever wants them can take them …" Chen Fan said.
Lin Yun bitterly smiled. Crowits' fanaticism towards puppeteering had reached the point where he didn't care about anything else. Apart from puppeteering, everything else could be discarded.
After leading Crowits to the Radiant Fort's underground base and learning that the entire underground base was a huge puppet, Crowits walked through the passage like a devout believer on a pilgrimage.
