Chapter 2352 - 2352 Farewell, Storm Continent (2)
No matter how he pestered her, Shen Yanxiao ignored him to the end.
After the ambush by Satan, the dwarves were greatly impacted. The frightened dwarven alchemists were temporarily placed in the capital city. Mengmeng Qi dared not let them leave at such a dangerous time, fearing that they would be attacked again when they returned to their tribe.
Even Shen Yanxiao was shocked by the strength of the experimental subjects, let alone the dwarves.
Mengmeng Qi could only constantly increase the number of guards in the capital city. After experiencing the harassment of the experimental subjects, Mengmeng Qi had realized that if the dwarves relied too much on humanoid machines, once they encountered the experimental subjects integrated with the blood of the merfolk again, they would lose all their ability to fight back.
The sound waves of the merfolk were too lethal to humanoid machines. Once encountered, all their humanoid machines would be useless. On the other hand, the mechanical puppets were not too affected as they were operated manually by dwarves.
However, dwarves had always regarded humanoid machines as their greatest invention, and eventually this invention had been normalized by them.
“Your Majesty, if you want the dwarves to be strong, you can’t just rely on humanoid machines.” After returning to the palace, Shen Yanxiao immediately met Mengmeng Qi.
Although Mengmeng Qi, who had taken off his face-changing mask, still had a young face, his eyes were full of vicissitudes. Today’s battle had given the leader of the dwarves a thorough showing of the shortcomings of dwarven alchemy.
“What happened today has taught me the drawbacks of humanoid machines. If they really go to the battlefield, I’m afraid they won’t be as useful as we thought.” Mengmeng Qi sighed helplessly. Humanoid machines had always been the most important research direction for dwarven alchemists, but now their actions had made them taste the bitter price.
“Dwarves are not weak. They don’t have to rely so much on mechanical bodies. Your Majesty, please listen to me. In the beginning, you dwarves were swordsmen. There are still a lot of dwarves who adhere to the practice of swordsmanship. After all, mechanical bodies are external forces. Only by really making themselves strong can they be fundamental. No one can take them away.” Shen Yanxiao did not deny the strength of humanoid machines. In the last battle between gods and devils, the humanoid machines of the dwarves had created brilliant achievements in war, but today was different from the past. Satan had such a close relationship with those experimental subjects that it was hard to guarantee that in the future battlefield, there would be no experimental subjects among the devil army.
Those experimental subjects integrated with the blood of the merfolk were the nemesis of humanoid machines.
“Swordsmanship? But dwarves are not physically strong.” Mengmeng Qi was very distressed. Although dwarves had good physiques, they were too petite and were at an absolute disadvantage in terms of speed and height. This disadvantage was the key that forced them to choose to rely on mechanical bodies.
“Your Majesty, have you forgotten the holy box? The holy box used by you dwarves is the sacred tool used by us humans. This kind of thing is very powerful. It can make up for the physical shortcomings of dwarves, and the sound waves of the merfolk have no effect on sacred tools.” The alchemy of dwarves could still create glory as long as it was used in the right place.
