Tang En and the others brought Tim's modified soul core to the empty experimental field. The large open space had been designated as a military restricted area, and now there was only a giant golden statue standing there.
With the help of Tang En, Tim reloaded the modified experimental soul core into the body of the giant golden statue and set up a link with the magic channels in other areas.
Afterward, he inserted an advanced magic crystal into the reserved groove, and the Golden Giant God Statue barely regained its driving power for the time being.
Tim explained, "Although the high-level magic crystal can also drive the giant golden statue, its ability to fight continuously is not strong. I'm afraid that the magic inside will be used up in less than a week. In actual combat, using the magic essence should be the best choice."
Tang En stroked his chin and suddenly said, "Since the artificial soul has been removed and replaced with heroic spirits to directly control the giant golden statue, how about we let them directly absorb magic and store it in the giant golden statue according to their habits when they were alive, and then use it to drive the giant golden statue?"
Tim was stunned and said with a startled face, "I've never thought of this, but … it should be feasible!"
Yu, Tisa, and the others had all been transformed into alchemy dolls, and they could still practice and use spells. The ability to sense and absorb magic had not disappeared, which meant that the souls still retained that instinct after death.
As long as he could create a place similar to a Mana Pool inside the Giant Golden Statue to store mana, he might be able to get rid of the troublesome part of loading Magic Crystals. Even if he didn't get rid of it, with the two working together, he could greatly reduce his reliance on Magic Crystals, greatly increase the duration of battle, and greatly reduce the consumption of Magic Crystals.
Tim immediately remembered Tang En's hint and decided to go back and try to see if he could further improve the design in this area.
"So what should we do next?"
Victor looked at the giant golden statue with interest. He did not expect that these "heroic spirits" would eventually return to the world of the living in this way and fight to protect this world.
"What else can we do? Just fly in and drill into the soul core."
Tang En said in a bad mood, "Do you think we need to shout 'Six Gods Combine' or 'Moon Prism Transformation'?"
"What's that?"
Victor said casually, and then floated up and drilled into the giant golden statue.
A moment later, everyone suddenly heard Victor's exclamation. "Dear Gods! There's actually — God! — It's incredible! "
Tang En and the others looked at each other. A moment later, Victor's head came out from the chest of the giant golden statue and said with a happy face, "That's all I can say! It's really great inside! I think those guys will fall in love with it! "
Tang En's mouth twitched, and he could not help but ask Tim, "What adjustments did you make in the soul core? He doesn't look like someone who has just found a war machine. Instead, he looks like someone who has just found a love nest. "
The lazy Tim said, "It's just some adjustments made to the living habits of us humans. After all, artificial souls didn't require such changes in the past … In addition, according to the technology derived from artificial souls, some targeted optimizations have been made. For souls, it should feel very comfortable."
Tang En nodded and looked at Victor having fun there. A moment later, he finally could not help but shout, "You should get down to business, stop fooling around."
"Oh!"
It was only then that Victor remembered what he had to do. His head drilled back into the Giant Golden Statue. A moment later, he did something, and the Giant Golden Statue that had been silent for thousands of years suddenly trembled with a buzzing sound. Then, it opened its eyes, emitting a rich golden light.
The giant golden statue slowly raised its hand, and a muffled rumble sounded like thunder. It seemed that the body that had not moved for a long time was quite cumbersome to move again. Listening to the loud noise, Tang En could not help but want to lubricate it.
However, the joints of the giant golden statue were not rune structures, nor were they bearing structures. Even if he wanted to lubricate it, there was no place for him to do so. As for how it moved, Tang En felt that even if Tim explained the principle to him, he probably would not understand.
After all, he was just a half-baked transmigrator who was riding on the coattails of the gods.
"It moved! It really moved! "
Brian's eyes widened, and he shouted, "Damn it! I'm not even as tall as this guy's foot! The pressure is too strong! I really should call that guy Clotho over too! "
"Clotho has already seen him before."
"Then he must be very sad."
Brian gestured at his beard. "He may not even be as tall as the giant statue's toe."
Tang En said snappily, "At least, he's a giant in thought, and you, whether in thought or action, are a dwarf."
Brian stomped his foot. "You're slandering me!"
Tang En pursed his lips and shouted at the giant golden statue, "Victor, how do you feel?"
The giant golden statue's right foot shook, as if it wanted to raise it, but after shaking for a long time, it still could not raise it. In the end, Tang En shouted, and the giant golden statue's body tilted and actually lost its balance. It fell to the ground with a bang, smashing a big hole in the ground.
Brian was dumbfounded. "Damn! Big brother, your voice is really powerful! "
Tang En was also dumbfounded.
A moment later, Victor flew out of the giant golden statue's chest with a look of lingering fear. "Scared the hell out of me."
Tim immediately went forward, took out a pen and paper, and asked, "What happened? Why did it fall? The giant golden statue has a self-balancing device installed in it, so it shouldn't have lost its balance. "
"It's not that it lost its balance, how should I put it … I feel like I can't exert any strength."
Victor scratched his head and said with a gloomy face, "Although I can feel the whole body from the core of my soul and can barely control it, I feel like a weak old man. My hands and feet are weak, and it's hard to even raise my hand, let alone lift my foot."
"Weak? Can't exert any strength? "
Tim's pen paused, and he said thoughtfully, "Then I understand. Patriarch Eustissa said before that it's a little difficult to control such a huge golden statue with the strength of a human's soul, so a soul strength amplifier device needs to be attached to it to amplify the soul signal."
Victor was very surprised. "That kind of thing can be done?"
"Of course."
Tim waved his hand, put away the pen and paper, and said, "Ever since artificial soul technology matured, the derivative technology and application of the soul have been constantly developing."
"He's right, now the soul strength amplifier device is basically completed, and Eustissa is waiting for the results here."
Tang En said, "If you feel that there's no problem with the compatibility of the soul core now, you can continue with the next step of the test."
"Of course there's no problem!"
Victor perked up. "Let's continue with the next step."
"I'll inform Eustissa to come over."
Tang En made a phone call and asked Eustissa to come over with the soul strength amplifier device. After hanging up the phone, he looked at Victor curiously. "Speaking of which, what's inside the soul core like? Why are you so excited? "
"It's hard to describe, how should I put it … It's like a child who has been lonely for many years finally returning to his mother's embrace, very comfortable."
"Your description is too abstract, don't you have a more specific description? Picture? Spatial structure? "
"There's no way to describe it to you, after all, it's the world of the dead, and after the fusion, the entire Giant Golden Statue has become your own body, there's no way to describe it … It's like when you're alive, can you know the feeling of your soul staying in your body?"
Victor spread his hands. "If you're interested, you can try dying."
Tang En curled his lips. "Forget it, I still have to live to save this world."
Soon, Eustissa came over with the soul strength amplifier device. Looking at the Giant Golden Statue on the ground, the Winter Saintess raised her eyebrows. "Why did it fall? Did the experiment fail? "
Tim shook his head. "No, the experiment succeeded, but as expected, the soul is not strong enough."
"Try this."
Eustissa handed the ball-shaped device to Tim. The ball-shaped device was covered with complex runes, and ordinary people couldn't understand it at all. According to Eustissa, the inside was actually a modified soul crystal.
With Tang En's help, Tim installed the soul strength amplifier device and connected it to the soul core.
"This won't do."
Tang En looked at the busy Tim and said casually, "There are too many Giant Golden Statues, it's impossible for me to manually remove the outer shell and install the soul core for each one."
"That can't be helped, the Giant Golden Statue was originally designed as a single piece, and there was no consideration of disassembly, so no disassembly structure was used."
"We have to find a way to control the Oricha Steel."
"Oh, don't worry about that, Klotto is already testing it, and if nothing unexpected happens, he'll soon find a way to control it, and then it'll be easy to remove the outer shell."
Tim clapped his hands. "It's done."
"Go and try again."
Tang En let Victor go back into the Giant Golden Statue, and he, Tim, and the others quickly left the Giant Golden Statue's body.
"Boom!"
This time, under Viktor's control, the Golden Giant God Statue simply raised its hands and placed them on the ground. Then, with a forceful push, it instantly sat up. Then, with a push of its legs, the Golden Giant God Statue stood up again!
"Is this our body in the future …"
Victor raised the hands of the giant golden statue and looked at them. Then, he lowered his head and looked at Tang En and the rest, who were like ants nearby. Then, he carefully raised his foot again and took a step. After that, he stabilized himself and took another step. Then, he walked faster and faster. In the end, he actually started running around the experimental field.
Sprinting!
Jumping!
Punching!
Rays — uh, this could be used, but there really wasn't any now.
Rumble, rumble, rumble …
Huge muffled sounds echoed in the sky above Ellington, as if announcing to the world the return of the great Giant Golden Statue army.
