Chapter 327 Energy Source

"Abandoned? Why?" Fang Tian asked strangely.

"We don't know the specific reason." The guard explained: "Since it was used more than 100 years ago, we can no longer drive this giant cannon. The master craftsman Calvi has checked it countless times before, but He has never found any way to repair it, and he said that it may be due to the excessive adjustment of the energy power in the previous few times, which caused the damage..."

Fang Tian frowned, the giant magic crystal cannon obviously belonged to the category of advanced machinery, and he was not sure about repairing it completely, but the strange thing was that, judging from the game prompt just now, this giant magic crystal cannon was obviously not Damaged state.

The game prompts are not deceiving. In other words, the giant magic crystal cannon was not damaged, so why did the guard leader tell him that he could not control the giant magic crystal cannon?He has no reason to lie.

Fang Tian climbed onto the console, tossed and turned, and checked carefully again.

Different from the small magic crystal cannon, the giant magic crystal cannon also has a main control room. All calibration, energy storage, launch and a series of tasks are completed in the main control room.Fang Tian went into the main control room and checked the operation panel. He couldn't help but feel puzzled. He didn't find any signs of damage, so why did it suddenly fail to start?

Fang Tian fell into deep thought, could it be because his mechanical proficiency skill level is too low to detect the problem?
"I can't find the problem." Fang Tian said truthfully after jumping off the main control room.

"It doesn't matter, master, the machinery developed by the holy hall is too advanced. You can repair ordinary magic crystal cannons is already very powerful." Seeing that Fang Tian couldn't solve the problem of magic crystal cannons, the guards were still a little disappointed Yes, he continued to walk forward with Fang Tian, ​​and said, "I wonder if Master knows anything about mechanical puppets?"

Mechanical puppet?
Just as he was talking, the guard opened a small door in the warehouse.

Seeing the rows of iron puppets placed in the room, Fang Tian's pupils shrank again.

These!They were all iron puppets! ?

Iron puppets were neatly placed in the huge room, almost filling the entire room, at least thousands of them at a glance.

The guard next to Fang Tian sighed, "These iron puppets were also bought from the temple by His Majesty the King of the Empire at that time. These impenetrable guys reduced our great losses in the battle. As time goes by, they are just like the giant magic crystal cannon you saw just now, and they lose their effect one after another and cannot be activated."

Something must have gone wrong, most of the iron men here have no obvious scars, how could they all fail to start?Fang Tian immediately stepped forward to observe.

"Uh...Master Fang Tian..."

The guard raised his head halfway through speaking, and saw that Fang Tian was already standing in front of an iron puppet.

"So that's how it is, that's how it is..."

After checking these iron puppets, Fang Tian came to a sudden realization.

"What's wrong? Master Fang Tian?"

Fang Tian looked away from the iron puppet, and said, "Same as the giant magic crystal cannon we saw before, the iron puppet here is not damaged."

"What?" The guard leader was taken aback by Fang Tian's words, "Master, what did you say? They are not damaged? Then why can't we drive them?"

Fang Tian shook his head and explained: "Because they lack energy to drive them, they can't run."

The leader of the guards opened his mouth wide in surprise, enough to stuff two steamed buns worth three silver coins.

"You mean energy driven? What is this?"

"Yes!" Fang Tian replied: "It is driven by energy. Most of the machinery developed by the Holy Church, whether it is an iron puppet or a magic crystal, is driven by energy. Every time the giant magic crystal cannon is fired, it will consume a huge amount of energy. , so it is exhausted after only a few times of use and cannot be operated."

"The same is true for the iron puppet. Because you don't know how to control and turn off the energy, the iron puppet is always in an activated state and consumes energy. As time goes by, after all the energy originally stored in the iron puppet is used up, what will he do? It loses the ability to move and cannot be awakened."

Speaking of this, Fang Tian couldn't help but feel that there was some mistake. He didn't even find such a simple problem when he checked the magic crystal cannon just now.

Fang Tian's words made the guard's eyes light up, and he immediately asked, "But why are those magic crystal cannons on the city wall still usable?"

Fang Tian explained: "That's because they don't consume a lot of energy every time they launch, and they are not always active like iron puppets. They only consume energy when launching."

The guard thought about it for a while, nodded happily and said, "My lord, you are right, it is true, the magic crystal cannon on the city wall is only used when defending the city, but I heard that the iron puppet just bought it Every time, it will be used in every battle!"

"That's right!" Fang Tiandao: "Driving the iron puppet to fight will only accelerate the consumption of energy sources, and the solution is also very simple. As long as we can replenish the energy, we can recharge the iron puppet and the magic crystal cannon. ..."

The guard interrupted excitedly: "At that time, we will be able to use the giant magic crystal cannon and iron puppet again!"

"Well, indeed."

Received Fang Tian's affirmative answer, the guard was extremely excited, "Master Fang Tian, ​​how many gold coins are needed to buy energy?"

buy it?

Fang Tian was taken aback, he seemed to have discovered a problem, people in this era know very little about mechanical technology, people here don't even know about energy drive, let alone alchemy runes.

And because of the preparation for the dungeon, he emptied most of the things in the backpack before entering the game, leaving only a little supplementary energy as the energy to drive the alchemy gargoyle...

Before coming here, Fang Tian also inquired with Shen Luoluo that there are not many places where alchemy gargoyles are used in dungeons, so the energy Fang Tian brought into the dungeon this time can drive ten iron puppets at most, which is almost at the limit , It is simply impossible to drive such a huge monster as a giant magic crystal cannon.

After seeing Fang Tian who was lost in thought, the guard asked worriedly: "Master Fang Tian, ​​what's wrong?"

Fang Tian couldn't help raising his head and said, "Energy, it seems, can't be bought."

"what……"

After the joy just now, the guard seemed to be sent back to hell all of a sudden, "This...why can't I buy it?"
