Mechanical Doctor

…

“Buzz buzz buzz…”

Amid the buzzing sound, “hair” began to grow on the mechanical clone.

Countless straws with a metallic luster took root and grew on the metal surface of the mechanical clone.

And at this moment, something strange happened.

“What? What’s going on?”

The straw people responsible for maintaining the magic circle suddenly felt that the magic circle seemed to be abnormal.

The mechanical clone, which had been passively absorbing gray-black energy, began to actively absorb energy.

At this time, the surroundings of the mechanical clone were like a floor drain in a swimming pool, madly absorbing the surrounding energy.

Its absorption speed was so fast that a huge energy vortex was formed directly in the air.

In just a few breaths, all the gray-black energy in the entire magic circle was swept away by the mechanical clone.

And the magic circle without energy also began to collapse quickly.

The altar composed of various crops, as if it had experienced countless years, began to rot and decay until it turned into a pile of black ash.

At the same time, a huge scarecrow lying flat in the void moved slightly, as if he sensed something.

However, his lazy nature prevented him from making any extra movements. Of course, as an evil god, he could not do anything without the help of the sacrificial ceremony.

In this way, the huge scarecrow was still floating in the void casually as usual.

...

"This..."

This sudden scene confused the scarecrows.

On the contrary, Manolin, a novice who participated in the evil god sacrificial ceremony for the first time, was still a little confused.

He asked the scarecrow:

"Is the ceremony over like this? So fast!"

Noel scratched his head made of straw and said in confusion:

"Uh... This is the first time for several of us to hold a ceremony of this scale, but according to common sense, it shouldn't end so quickly."

"Could it be..."

As he said, he turned his attention to the mechanical clone lying there.

Probably sensing the gazes of the crowd, the mechanical clone sat up in an instant, just like the zombies in Hong Kong movies coming out of their coffins.

"Hey! How are you!"

Manolin was afraid that the mechanical clone would have problems and infect his original body, so he cut off the connection between him and the mechanical clone when he threw it into the magic circle.

Therefore, he could only confirm the current state of the mechanical clone by asking.

"I feel a little strange now..."

While speaking, the mechanical clone raised his hands that had turned into straw and looked at them curiously.

After confirming that the mechanical clone was still rational and had not become a madman because of the power of the "Scarecrow God", Manolin carefully approached the mechanical clone.

At this time, the mechanical clone looked about 70% similar to those scarecrows.

Normal [Scarecrow] professionals, because of their different levels, have some human organs in addition to straw on their bodies, which makes these scarecrows, especially low-level scarecrows, extremely terrifying - as if there is a corpse hidden in the scarecrow.

The mechanical clone is different. His current image has completely turned into a real scarecrow, but there is a difference. The straw on his body is actually made of metal.

Then, Manolin conducted a detailed inspection of the mechanical clone.

The inspection results made him a little disappointed.

I don’t know if it’s because the "Scarecrow God" is too weak compared to the abyss, which makes the mechanical clone gain real life, but not get a new profession like the [Abyss Mechanic] of the mechanical demon, but become a first-level [Scarecrow] professional.

Originally, Manolin thought he could make a [Scarecrow Mechanic], but now it seems that he is just overthinking.

The current mechanical clone has become a [Scarecrow] professional with a lot of mechanical and medical knowledge.

It can be said that his combat power is not much different from that of an ordinary mechanical clone.

Even because the built-in weapons in the mechanical clone have become metal straws, his combat power may be greatly weakened.

However, the mechanical clone becoming a [Scarecrow] is not completely without good news. At least his potential is greater than that of an ordinary mechanical clone.

After all, the [Scarecrow] profession can also be upgraded, while the strength of ordinary mechanical clones only depends on the accessories installed on them.

In addition, this [Scarecrow]The mechanical clone can also move independently from its original body.

Overall, Manolin's experiment was successful this time, and there is nothing wrong with his idea.

...

After thanking the scarecrows, Manolin led the mechanical clone he named Metal Scarecrow back to the [Pterosaur] for a more detailed inspection.

If there are no problems in this inspection, he will continue to make several mechanical clones of this special type.

Of course, he is not going to make mechanical clones of the [Scarecrow] profession this time.

After all, the scarecrows are so lazy, and it is already a great honor for them to help him hold a ceremony this time. Manolin is a little embarrassed to let them hold a ceremony again.

So this time he plans to use the power of the "God of Justice" and the "God of Fungi" to create a new clone.

For the [Brave] profession of the Justice Cultist, Manolin is a little jealous.

"Fighting monsters and upgrading" is a very pleasant experience for everyone.

If it were another world, the [Hero] profession could be the exclusive profession of the protagonist.

If he had not joined the Church of Justice, he would have become half-mentally retarded. I believe that many people in this world would have chosen to become a [Hero] without hesitation.

Manolin quickly found Gist and told him his needs.

The legendary justice believer did not refuse Manolin's outrageous operation.

However, due to the special nature of the "God of Justice", it was a bit troublesome for Manolin to sacrifice to him - the "God of Justice" only accepts blood sacrifices of sinful people, and cannot use conventional means for sacrifice.

Therefore, if Manolin wants to obtain the power of the "God of Justice", he must offer him a group of people who are full of sins.

This is a bit troublesome for him.

If you want to hold a large-scale sacrifice, at least one or two hundred people will be needed.

The prison in Zesora City plus his unused experimental materials can barely gather one or two hundred people.

But the problem is that most of the people in the prison are those who have committed minor crimes and do not meet the conditions for sacrifice at all.

Moreover, these people are not guilty of capital crimes, and Manolin cannot kill them.

Therefore, if he wants to gather so many people in a short time, he can only capture them now.

Fortunately, there are many people who can meet the conditions for sacrifice in the New World, and he can gather them by wasting some time.
