Chapter 1529: Chapter 1082: Large Project (Part 2)

She spoke while dragging up the half a puppet beauty she had discovered to showcase.

It was an image of a woman with painted eyebrows and eyes, but unfortunately, only half of the face remained. The other half exposed mechanical parts, and even a layperson could tell that the crafting technique and materials used were of the highest quality.

"Definitely possible!" Yun Ying’s eyes gleamed as she saw it, exclaiming with great joy, "This body doesn’t have a soul seal, so I can dismantle it to get many reusable parts and learn from its crafting technique to improve my puppetry skills."

Jiang Yuan couldn’t help but overlook the various details the system popped up, and looking at the endless array of recyclable treasures, he laughed while waving his hand, "If you fancy something, just toss it into the storage bag. You’ll be busy for a while."

First, he asked in the small courtyard communication group who was available, and after receiving numerous replies, Jiang Yuan summoned dozens of people, including core members like Qing Niao, Little Lark, and Bai Yunqi, to come and help.

The loading bar finished, and as everyone appeared simultaneously, a purple light immediately enveloped them. Then, they all fell into varying states of sleep, their divine souls entering the dream realm.

"Oh wow, City Lord Yan’s technique is truly overwhelming." Jiang Yuan exclaimed in awe, filled with admiration for the Nightmare Technique.

With the current demonstrated abilities, it was practically a realm completely open, no matter who entered the small space, they had to report to her first.

Luckily, Yan Zheng quickly understood the situation and opened the door to send them out.

"Brother, was I dreaming just now?" Qing Niao stood up, seeing the scene in front of them overlapping with memories, immediately becoming excited, "I wondered why you three weren’t home, turns out you ran here for treasures! Wow! This is spectacular, brother, what place is this? I can’t remember, but I’m sure I’ve been here."

Bai Yunqi, despite claiming to have seen many big scenes, still couldn’t help but inhale sharply, "Sir, am I not dreaming now? Are all these... puppets?"

Leng Yutang, after a brief shock, became so excited he seemed to be going mad!

He casually grabbed a part, unable to put it down, then looked at the one beside him he liked even more, looking around seemed like an endless ocean of puppet parts and refining materials, he excitedly rolled twice on them.

"Mom! That scared me, I thought they were all living people!"

"You know, looking closer, these imitation people look like real ones, truly impressive!"

"Riches! Hahaha... so many refining materials, I’m striking it rich!"

"Shush! Quiet, listen to what Sir has to say..."

...

After a brief commotion, Jiang Yuan motioned for silence, "Summoning everyone here is to ask you to help find puppets sealed with souls from these discarded items.

Now spread out and look for anything enveloped in purple.

Remember: wherever you find them, immediately bring them to me, don’t carry them further away. This concerns whether the sealed souls can continue to ’live’ peacefully, don’t be careless."

Upon hearing there were living people’s souls sealed in the discarded puppets, everyone was very surprised.

The courtyard had examples of Yun Shu and Yun Ying, everyone knew living souls could continue to survive in a puppet body. But the problem was, these were clearly discarded waste materials, how could living souls be thrown away?

Jiang Yuan gave a brief explanation, and everyone looked as if they had swallowed a fly.

"Soul-stealing artifact refining, Ten Thousand Puppet Sect has clearly fallen into the Evil Dao!"

"This is just the tip of the iceberg, the souls condensed by the City Lord are very few fortunate ones, more souls are being traded, the more you think about it, the more terrifying it gets!"

"In my opinion, find that Ten Thousand Puppet Sect and destroy the entire Evil Dao sect..."

...

From shock to righteous indignation, everyone was filled with compassion for the sealed souls they were about to find.

With examples of the previously found two discarded puppets, everyone tacitly spread out, each responsible for an area to begin searching. The outer layers had many puppets and parts corroded by demonic energy, Jiang Yuan gathered these into the storage bag, and through the courtyard communicator, directly placed them into the accelerator’s fuel box.

Some systems showed recyclable refining materials, which were processed separately in the Treasure Forging Workshop and Melting Workshop.

Jiang Yuansheng selected two locations for large-scale cleanup. Then, he planted two small flags, one for storing useless items, and one for storing puppets sealed with souls and suspected puppet’s heart items.

Everyone prioritized items enveloped in purple light, and secondary targeted heart-shaped or similar shaped items, demonstrating their unique abilities in their respective areas.

Bai Yunqi revealed his flood dragon form, swinging his tail and causing countless discarded items to float up.

He swept his eyes over them, filtering out items that matched the target, while gathering the rest to pile at a designated location.

Qing Niao seemed to be running a production line, one discarded item after another flew swiftly to the designated location, and upon finding a target, he directly controlled it to fly to another designated location.

Jiang Yuan silently selected all discarded items within the target range, clicking to throw them into the Immortal Peak’s small space.

The items preliminarily screened by everyone were rapidly piled into the Immortal Peak. Originally belonging to the Holy Land of Leisure Sect, the Immortal Peak mainly consisted of a towering mountain with numerous Tribulation Crossing arrays arranged according to the mountain’s structure; its bottom was a deep abyss.

The ground below was flat and dry, devoid of grass, making it very suitable for storing a large number of discarded puppets.

"Crash!"

After clearing one batch, Little Lark flapped his wings and piled another large heap.

[Third edition failed puppet city-exclusive puppet’s heart, can use Information Collection Device to generate drawings and improve]

The numerous detailed analyses caught Jiang Yuan’s eye, and he immediately filtered out the nearly five-meter diameter irregular object, shouting to Little Lark, "Where did you find this heap? Don’t move it, I’ll come over and take a look!"

"Huh? Mine?" Little Lark chirped, "Right here! I didn’t move it, sir, you come look, they’re all bizarrely shaped things."

The invisible wings carried Jiang Yuan over, he glanced around, and commanded, "Lark, move these things aside, let me see what that gray thing is."

"Chirp!" Its wings flapped, all obstructing items floated up, revealing the large grayish spherical below.

"That’s strange, is it made into a ball? Not a single gap." It tilted its head curiously, unaware of why the sir was interested in such an inconspicuous item.

[Failed final version transforming puppet beast: designed and refined by the 21st generation sect leader of Ten Thousand Puppet Sect, originally intended to refine a puppet beast capable of nine form changes, avoiding fire and water, combining attack and defense in one, but this version only achieved three form changes, not smoothly.

The sect leader was very dissatisfied, temporarily storing it for modification. However, after his accidental death, the 22nd generation successor cleaned the storeroom, not knowing its use, discarded it as trash... can use Information Collection Device to generate drawings and improve]

"The refining craftsmanship is indeed impeccable." Jiang Yuan stepped up and touched it, curious about what precious materials were used to refine it, not cold nor warm, its texture was pleasantly smooth.

Following the system’s popped detail position gently pressed, a loading power source slot indeed popped up.

He took out three Immortal Jade from the account and loaded them in, then pressed the slot back, hearing mechanical clanking sounds from inside the roughly two-meter diameter gray sphere.

"It’s moving! Oh my, it’s alive!" Little Lark chirped excitedly, "Sir, you’re amazing, you even recognized what this giant ball is!"

Transforming wasn’t very smooth indeed.

But the fully charged gray sphere still managed to transform into a majestic wolf demon, raising its head to howl.

Clicking, Jiang Yuan’s vision popped a game-like list—transform, enter battle mode, enter pet mode, a string of commands to control the puppet.

Finding no other clues about a puppet’s heart, he wasn’t in the mood to play with a semi-finished puppet beast and clicked the command for the wolf to transform back into a ball, entering sleep mode before putting it in the storage bag.

"Let’s continue, if you discover anything interesting, put it in the storage bag, and we’ll examine what novel items they are once we return home."

"Alright! This is so fun! Maybe I can find more transformable puppet beasts!"

Continuing the screening and cleaning, Jiang Yuan’s mind rippled with layers of thoughts. He pondered whether to find a suitable location to use the recovered materials to build a puppet city?
