  Chapter 74 Ordering

  Although he didn't know what Duanmuhuai wanted to do, Buddy still agreed to his request. Take him to the workshop and start making dolls.

"Generally speaking, there are two types of dolls made by puppeteers, one is relatively simple, and the other is relatively complex. The simple ones are mainly because the puppeteers can control them through silk threads, while the complicated ones can perform some autonomous actions. "

  While introducing, Buddy picked up tools and began to make dolls.

   "I've seen simple ones, but I'm curious about how those dolls that move automatically are made."

   Duanmuhuai has seen the first type of doll before. For example, Augis's guardian doll is manipulated by her using silk threads. On the contrary, those puppets that move automatically confuse him a bit. Although Duanmuhuai has used those puppets more than once, but... To be honest, he still doesn't understand the reason for this.

  Mechanical soldiers are easier to understand. After all, they are related to machinery. There is a core circuit inside, but what about dolls?

   "Actually, apart from the relatively complicated internal structure, there is not much difference."

   "What about the material?"

   "Well, most of them are made of wood. Of course, some of them use steel and some special materials, but they are basically considered for special purposes."

While Buddy was answering Duanmuhuai's questions, the work under his hands did not stop. Duanmuhuai saw his hands "swish, swish" moving on the workbench, and carved a piece of wood into a doll in the blink of an eye. Limbs, bodies. Then Buddy took out some gears, assembled the brackets and springs and things like that, and put them together... well, a figure was formed in no time.

  Then Buddy took out a key, inserted it into the back of the doll and turned it a few times, and then Duanmuhuai saw the doll open its eyes and slowly raise its head. Then it raised its head, looked at Buddy, and said.

   "Hello, Master."

   Seeing the puppet in front of him wake up, Buddy nodded in satisfaction.

   "Well, that's it."

   "Wait for me?!"

  Seeing this, Duanmu Huai finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"how did you do that?"

   "That's how it was done? Didn't you see it all?"

   "I just saw that you stuffed a bunch of parts into this doll's body?"

   "That's right, that's why I said that the automatic puppet will be a little more complicated. If it is a puppet to be manipulated, you only need to make the body and limbs and then assemble it."

   "No...but..."

  Of course, Duanmuhuai knows that pure technology can sometimes achieve some magical things, such as wooden cows and horses, and dolls that can walk automatically when they are wound up. The ancient craftsman technology is also very magical. But taking a step back, even if the things they created could move, they would only repeat actions according to certain rules.

  However, the doll that Buddy created just now can not only walk, talk, but also obey orders.

   This is obviously already at the level of a robot, okay!

  Where is its information processing center? Doesn't this thing have a core? ?

   "Can I see the material?"

"certainly."

   Duanmu Huai got up and came to the workbench, carefully checking the materials one by one.

  Springs...ordinary springs.

   Gears... just normal gears.

  Other parts are just pure metal parts.

  He came to the puppet that had just been created again, opened its abdomen, and saw that the gears inside were constantly rotating, driving the spool to turn around. And Duanmu Huai took a closer look at her head - except for the parts used to control the eyeballs and open the mouth to speak, there was nothing in the head.

  ? ? ?

   What kind of technology is this shit?

  Duanmuhuai was completely confused, he said that he really couldn't understand this thing... Where is the power source? Where is the information processor? Why can it obey the orders of others and still have its own judgment ability? Why can you talk without a sound device?

  Is this unscientific?

   But it's magic.

  With this in mind, Duanmuhuai and the dwarf technician communicated again, and finally solved some of the doubts.

To put it simply, this kind of "automatic doll" can act autonomously to a certain extent, but that must be requested by the manufacturer, such as "dolls specializing in sales" or "people specializing in guards". Puppet”, a puppet like this will carry out certain autonomous actions within the scope of its own duties.

  But if you ask them to dance or cook, they will say "I don't have this function".

   As for the subject of "Let the puppet have its own heart", Buddy gave an explanation to Duanmuhuai. To put it simply, among puppeteers, this is indeed a topic worthy of attention, just as there are always people who study robots in order to create robots that are like humans.

   But for now, there are only two feasible methods.

  One is to take the soul of others and stuff it into a doll. Of course, this is actually tantamount to turning a person into a doll. Although such a puppet can be controlled, most people obviously would not choose this method. On the one hand, this violates morality and ethics, on the other hand, this method is prone to problems.

  The other one is simpler. To put it bluntly, it is...to be refined.

  That’s right, if the puppet in this world is used for a long enough time, it will indeed gradually increase and awaken self-awareness, and finally become a puppet with a heart and complete self-awareness. But it takes almost a hundred years to start, and it also requires a good environment for the puppet. Otherwise, even if you finish making a doll and throw it in a box for hundreds of years, it will not change.

  Duanmuhuai finally gave up understanding the doll-making skills, but looking at these dolls made by Buddy, Duanmuhuai's heart suddenly moved.

   "Since you can make dolls that move, what about animals?"

   "Of course you can."

   "Then... can you build me a mount?"

   "Mount??"

  Hearing Duanmuhuai's request, Buddy was stunned for a moment, then he looked up and down Duanmuhuai, and then showed a suddenly realized expression.

"you mean……"

   "That's right, a mount that allows me to ride."

  Since the other party saw it, Duanmuhuai didn't hide it. He really needs a mount now. Although the previous two-wheeled automatic car can also run, it is done according to the proportion of normal people. Sitting on it, Duanmuhuai felt the same as an adult riding a buggy, how awkward it was, so he gave up after riding it only once.

  But now seeing that Buddy can make dolls, and thinking about the running mechanical dog he saw in the doll area, Duanmu Huai suddenly had an inspiration.

   Indeed, with my body size, it is difficult to find a mount.

  But...he can do it himself!

   Well, of course, Duanmuhuai can’t make it, but he can make it to order!

  According to Meluti's introduction, Buddy is the most skilled doll craftsman in the doll area, so it shouldn't be difficult to make such a mount, right?

"Um………"

  Buddy crossed his hands and looked at Duanmuhuai carefully.

   "It's not impossible, but I'll make you waste..."

"money is not a problem."

  Duanmuhuai seemed very calm, after all, the archbishop rewarded him with a large sum of money and had no place to spend it. If this can be a war horse that can match his size, it will be worth it!

"All right!"

  Hearing this, Buddy also clapped his hands vigorously.

   "This is the first time this old man has accepted such a commission. Do you have any requirements?"

   "It needs to be fast, flexible, and strong... Also, make it look better."

"nice?"

   “Yes, shape is important.”

   Duanmu Huai doesn’t expect to change his appearance, so he can only work on the mount. You can build a unicorn or a pegasus, at least it looks like that, doesn’t it?

   I have to say that Buddy was really surprised when he heard Duanmuhuai's request, but he still nodded.

   "No problem! Leave it to me!"

   "Then please."

  Hearing Buddy's answer, Duanmuhuai also heaved a sigh of relief.

   It can be regarded as somewhat harvested.
