Puppets were one of the symbols of the Tree Shade.
Every time an outsider came to the Tree Shade, the first thing they were surprised about were the steel monsters with round figures or small mecha. These puppets had made a lot of contributions to the territory's development history.
Tang Yu came to the study room. His spiritual power turned into a big hand and took down a thick book from a ten-meter-high bookshelf.
"Equipment Encyclopedia".
Author: Tang Yu.
This was another magnificent masterpiece after his "Demonic Beast Illustrated Handbook", "Strange Beast Illustrated Handbook", "Herb List", and "Mineral Overview".
Tang Yu also planned to compile a historical novel about the Fourth Era, "The End of the Age", based on the collected materials of the Fourth Era. It would describe the process of the thinning of the Origin Qi and the extraordinary changes.
Of course, he didn't know much about the Fourth Era. Yan Dingtian, including the Nanlin Kingdom, only knew a small part of it. Yan Dingtian knew very little about why the doomsday era appeared in the early Fourth Era.
Among the secret realms he had excavated, the one in the Alliance of Mages branch could be said to have the most books. Tang Yu also learned many secrets about the Fourth Era from it … much more than Yan Dingtian knew.
However, the end of the Third Era and the beginning of the Fourth Era seemed to be a taboo.
Only legend said that the Planet of Origin was very glorious in the first three eras.
Shaking his head, Tang Yu opened the "Equipment Encyclopedia". Weapons, armor, props, puppets, vehicles, etc., from D-rank single rune equipment to A-rank triple rune equipment. Almost everything that the territory currently owned was recorded in it.
Including the equipment characteristics, sharpness, inscribed runes, and manufacturing blueprints.
It could be said to be a true supreme treasure book.
The Lord's Castle could be considered to have stored treasures on the table!
Tang Yu quickly skimmed through the weapons chapter and armor chapter. After selecting several main products to be launched in the Norland, he turned to the puppet chapter.
Using selling puppets to make a name for himself, and then driving the sales of other products. This was Tang Yu's plan. He believed that as long as the shop's reputation spread, the entire Norland defense circle could have tens of millions of hunters. As long as the Tree Shade's production could keep up, spirit stones would flow into his pocket.
At that time, it wouldn't be difficult to trade high-end weapons for rare materials.
… …
The combat power of a Basic Warrior Puppet was roughly equivalent to that of a 1st Awakened.
Basic Warrior Puppet (Enhanced Type), replaced with alloy material. Its combat power was about equal to a Double Awakening Hunter, and its energy core was powerful when it self-detonated. It could kill a Fourth Awakening Demonic Beast at close range.
Combat Puppet (Low Version). Combat power is about equal to a 2nd or 3rd Awakened.
Combat Puppet (Medium Edition). Combat power equivalent to a 5th or 6th Awakened.
Combat Puppet (Advanced Version). Combat power comparable to a Level 10 Awakened.
This referred to the situation when it was naked. The biggest advantage of a gladiator puppet was that it could carry all kinds of weapons and use them skillfully … Although a gun gladiator puppet could not compare to a sharpshooter, it was at least a veteran with decent marksmanship.
These two types of puppets were the current mainstream in the territory.
In the past few months, Tang Yu had seen other puppet blueprints in the market, such as Spearman Puppet, Archer Puppet, Gunner Puppet … these were all ordinary ones.
There were also some more advanced ones, such as …
Guardian Puppet: Over two meters tall, humanoid, good at defense, melee bodyguard-type puppet.
Destroyer Puppet: Equipped with long-range bombing weapons such as lava cannons, good at demolition.
Giant God Soldier: Super large puppet … its combat power is difficult to evaluate, but in terms of destructive power, it's much higher than the Great Awakening Stage.
… …
These puppet blueprints were of high and low value. Some were practical and some were useless. But Tang Yu bought them all.
Even the most expensive Giant God Weapon blueprint was only three hundred thousand Origin Crystals, and the cheaper ones were only a few thousand. Buying it would be a good way to increase his collection, and it would also be a good way to study it.
"But I can't sell all the puppets I put in the Norland market."
The Giant God Soldier Puppet was expensive. So far, only three were built. Not many people in the entire territory knew about the Giant God Soldier.
The Destroyer Puppet was a grade lower than the Giant God Soldier, but its destructive power was also too powerful. The Adventurer's Guild didn't allow it to be exchanged.
Guardian Puppet, four-star adventurers could exchange.
As for the Fighter Puppet (Intermediate Version), only 3-star adventurers had the qualifications to exchange for it. As for the Low Edition, the exchange limit was two-star adventurers.
Basic Warrior Puppets had been removed from the Adventurer's Guild's exchange list and sold in the Tree Shade Supermarket, including some low-level puppets. Similar to many E-grade weapons, there were no purchase restrictions.
"However, although there are many types of puppets, there aren't many that are really popular in the market."
The normal and enhanced versions of basic Warrior Puppets (exchanged at the Adventurer's Guild) were very popular. The Low Edition Warrior Puppet was also one of the most commonly exchanged items for three-star adventurers.
But the Medium Edition had very few people exchanging.
The sales of other high-level puppets were also far lower than C-grade and B-grade weapons.
"The cost is a problem. The materials for the Medium and High Level puppets are more precious, causing the exchange price to be higher. Puppets are non-living things. As the hunter's strength increases, they will soon be eliminated."
Weapons were different. A B-grade weapon was more than enough to be used until the Great Awakening Stage.
The Medium and High Level Puppets were not cost-effective.
On the contrary, the Low Level Puppets were cheap and helpful to newbies who had just stepped into the hunter's path. Even if they were used up, they wouldn't feel bad.
"The North Court has a large population base, and there are a lot of new hunters. Many of them didn't directly go out to fight demonic beasts after awakening. Instead, they worked to earn money and buy equipment. When they were ready, they would go out of the defensive circle and hunt demonic beasts to level up."
"Therefore, the survival rate of new hunters in the North Court is relatively high. They also have extra money in their hands. The sales of basic warrior puppets should be good."
Tang Yu listed several popular puppets on the list.
He once thought of forming a puppet legion, but due to the high cost, he only had thousands of Warrior Puppets to cooperate with the garrison corps to maintain the stability of the territory.
Like the Giant God Puppet, although its combat power was good, the production cost was much higher than cultivating a Great Awakening.
The puppet legion could be used as a special means, but Tang Yu didn't want to use it in a regular battle. Even if he was a big boss with a daily income of hundreds of thousands, he still felt distressed.
"Unless … I can create puppets like No. 1 and No. 2 that can cultivate and become stronger on their own."
He shook his head.
Tang Yu flipped through the "Equipment Encyclopedia" page by page and suddenly saw a puppet he had ignored in the corner.
[Demon Wolf Puppet]
This was a rare beast-shaped puppet with combat power comparable to the Triple Awakening Stage. But because the production cost was much higher than the lower version of the Warrior Puppet, Tang Yu had always ignored it.
Looking at the puppet's appearance on the page again, a bold idea suddenly emerged in his mind.
