Lord of Arcane

Chapter 2260 Big Purchasing Conspiracy
However, although the puppet is not practical, it does not mean that its technical content is not high. Even in Xia Duo's hometown, robots are definitely a high-tech industry.

Thinking about it this way, Xia Duo still decided to order some human-shaped secret devices, not for anything else, just to understand and study the newer creation technology on Imaska's side.

So he asked Jam to take him to customize the puppet first, and then go to the secret weapon shop in the battle direction, but Jam gave a not too unexpected answer:
"The puppet customization business is generally only capable of being undertaken by those larger chambers of commerce, and those chambers of commerce generally also operate the business of combat secret devices."

"That is to say, we only need to go to one family?"

"Yes, shall we go now?"

"Go, but before I go, I want to buy some books on creation magic and secret weapons."

Xia Duo finally revealed the real purpose, but Jam did not refuse, but said: "Generally, books appear in libraries or colleges, and few are sold outside. Even if there are, most of them are related to creation, Encryptor has nothing to do."

"Then what if I want to get books on this subject?"

"I'm sorry, I can't help you in this regard, but I will convey your request to Prince Aben. If it's just some basic knowledge, I don't think His Royal Highness will refuse you."

"Well, then I will trouble the tax officer Jam, and now please take me to customize the puppet."

……

The place that Jam introduced to customize the puppet is actually not far away, it is near the business district where Xia Duo is now, but it is not open to the public, and someone needs to be introduced to enter.

"The Absolu Chamber of Commerce has a store in the Mars Commercial Street just now that sells secret weapons, but it does not accept customization there. What we are going to now is their boutique workshop in Inupuras. There is Prince Aben's I can only take guests there with tokens, and I am not qualified to go there normally."

"Thank you Prince Aben for me."

"I will."

Then there was silence all the way, but while walking, Xia Duo suddenly discovered a problem, so he took the initiative to ask Jam:

"I found that there are very few means of transportation in the city of Inupuras. Like we are now, can we only go to places on foot?"

"what?"

Jam was stunned for a moment, and then explained with embarrassment: "It's not that there is no more convenient way to travel, it's just that outsiders cannot use it without corresponding permissions.

"For example, the shopping mall we just entered on Mars Commercial Street itself exists in another dimension. Similar existences are almost everywhere in Inupuras, and those other dimensions are all related to Purple Star. The center is connected, and through the purple star center, you can quickly reach various blocks and even more specific locations."

"Is it the same nature as the planar channel mentioned in Janjit City?"

"Yes, but only the two old capitals of Inupuras and the split period have a complete internal transmission network, and the other cities only have transmission channels with Inupuras for the time being."

"So it is!"

Xia Duo suddenly realized, and at the same time, he also had a guess. This Inupuras may not be as deserted as it seems on the surface. The real prosperous place should be hidden in a different dimension, but those places are not right for him. Such outsiders are open.

He has only come into contact with the "outside world" of Inupuras, but the "inside world" it really contains is still a mystery.

After that, Xia Duo didn't ask how to get to those hidden dimensions, because he could indeed go to some places, such as the shopping mall just now, but he couldn't use the links between the shopping mall and other dimensions.

Even if you ask Jam, as a tax official, it is difficult to make any guarantee.

If what Jam just said is true, if that Prince Aben really wants to obtain more crystals of arcane energy, he may be able to use this to gain a chance to visit the real Inupuras.

……

Soon, Xia Duo and his party arrived at the boutique workshop of the Absolu Chamber of Commerce that Jam said. Unfortunately, Xia Duo did not see the craftsmen in the workshop.

After Jam showed Prince Aben's token, a man in charge soon came out of the workshop, and took Xia Duo and his party to a reception room.

"Master Athos, Manager Harman asked you what are the specific requirements for puppets? It should be noted that the detailed functions of different general directions cannot appear on one puppet at the same time. For example, the combat category can only be used in the general direction of combat. design, not mixed with home-like functions."

"I see."

Of course, Xia Duo understands that the more functions there are, the more difficult it is to realize them. Even if it is a customization with a high premium, it needs to consider the actual benefits.

After discussing privately with Niya, Xia Duo put forward his own needs: "I need to customize two batches of puppets. The first batch can be decided by their chamber of commerce. They must have combat, protection, and home functions. The more the better, the other group of me needs to be as human as possible, with most of the abilities of a real person, and it would be best if I could have wisdom."

"It turned out to be such a request?!"

After thinking for a while, Jam conveyed Xia Duo's request to the chamber of commerce manager. After the two discussed in front of Xia Duo for a while, Jam translated and gave the answer:

"Currently, the Absolu Chamber of Commerce is developing a multifunctional puppet that can perfectly meet the first requirement of Master Athos, but the price will be much more expensive than ordinary puppets.

"As for the second customization requirement, Manager Harman said that the Absolu Chamber of Commerce can also meet it, but wisdom cannot be truly anthropomorphic, and even a smart puppet cannot be completely like a human being."

"What level of wisdom can that achieve?" Xia Duo immediately asked again.

"There is no intelligence, only a fixed feedback mode, but if you ignore the details, you can perform close to real people."

"It's quite honest!"

"Creating wisdom can only be achieved by a very small number of top craftsmen. Although the Absolu Chamber of Commerce is strong, it does not have such craftsmen. Even if there are, wisdom puppets are not within the scope of sale."

"That's such a pity!" Xia Duo expressed regret from the bottom of his heart.

In fact, he really wanted to see how intelligent the intelligent puppet of Imasca was, and what was the difference between it and the tower spirit created by Netheril.

The tower spirit is just a copy of the consciousness of the caster. If Imaska's wisdom puppet is a brand-new way to create wisdom, it means that Imaska's craftsmen have already achieved outstanding achievements in the field of consciousness.

Maybe it's pure artificial intelligence.

"Jim Tax Officer, help me ask Manager Harman, what is the total price of this order?"

"Equivalent to 270 million Makala!"

Makala is not the currency of Imasca, but a bargaining chip agreed between them and Comanso. Even if Xia Duo takes out the currency of Imasca, it needs to be exchanged for Makala before the transaction can be carried out.

Of course, he can also choose to try to bypass Jam and conduct private transactions with people from the chamber of commerce, but private transactions are risky, in all aspects, this is not within the scope of Xia Duo's consideration, at least when he has a choice, he will not consider it. Private transactions.
