Under the detailed scanning of the data terminal, the secret of the legendary class of Black Sword Knight was finally revealed little by little.The truth is astonishing.Hao Ren didn't expect that there would be such a situation full of black technology on this planet that is similar to the level of Holletta no matter how you look - the essence of the black sword knights has been separated from the category of humans, according to the data terminal, they are actually a kind of semi-biochemical and semi-mechanical synthetic people with an extremely complex structure, and their "raw materials" may be real humans, but when they swing their swords, they can no longer be counted as regular life forms."
Most of the organs have different degrees of degeneration or function transfer, there are two sets of blood circulatory systems, one is the original cardiovascular system, and the other is maintained by something similar to a mechanical pump, and there are intricate pipes distributed in the body, which flows with oil that can conduct magic, the bones have been semi-metalized, and the vital parts are also covered with additional alloy armor......"
The data terminal scanned while projecting the results in mid-air, anyway, the Charlemagne brothers and sisters were no stranger to this scene, "Brain tissue is seriously degenerated, The major nerves even show a fibrous tendency, and the atrophied brain body is less than 10 percent effective, and the nerve signals used to direct the body are all concentrated near the spinal cord, where there is a complex electronic structure......
According to this world, it is a magic device......
"The structure of the black sword knight's whole body is projected, and on the body covered by the armor, traces of mechanical structure erosion and transformation can be seen everywhere, if it weren't for knowing that this is a world full of magic, Hao Ren almost thought that he was following the old popsicle from the 111 Vault to scare the synthesis......
"It's a little interesting......"
Leah also showed an interested expression, although these techniques were very shallow in her eyes, But in this world, it is clearly several levels beyond the current era, "magnify the artificial nervous system near the spinal cord and show me." ”The data terminal zooms in on the image, and the holographic projection presents a spindle made of countless thin lines and nodes."
Is this his real thinking organ?
Wait a minute......
No......"
Leah frowned, her eyes glinting slightly, the true face of the spindle structure was quickly revealed under the gaze of the gods, "It's just a device for nerve signal forwarding and release, the real signal source is not ...... it" "What do you mean?"
”Hao Ren was stunned for a moment, "Isn't this a thinking organ?"
So how did these Black Sword Knights move?
”"If I'm not mistaken......
It's remote," Leah said, pointing to the tip of the spindle, "it's a signal receiver that takes instructions from the outside world, which then translates into nerve impulses and controls the body.In other words, the Black Sword Knights themselves are incapable of thinking, they are just a kind of remote control puppet. ”"Remote?!"
This time, even Lily, who has always been clear-headed, widened her eyes, "Who's in control?"
Could it be His Majesty the Emperor?
”As she spoke, she thought of the legendary Dragon Soul Emperor sitting in her palace, with the map screen open in front of her, and the black sword knights arranged on the map one by one......
The husky girl was impressed with her own brain hole and gave herself a thumbs up."
Don't be cranky, it's definitely not what you think," Leah waved her hand, "remember......
This guy fell after the mechanical sword was destroyed. ”Lily: "Huh?
”"Although this conclusion is a bit weird, the most straightforward explanation is this," Leah nodded, "It's not so much the knight wielding the sword, but the sword directing the knights, I had a vague feeling that their mechanical sword was a little weird, always releasing some vague fluctuations, now think about it......
That should be the signal that the sword sends when it remotes the knight's body. ”Charlemagne and Evenna looked at each other, they had never heard such a fantastical story since they were children with formal education, the latter blinked his eyes and combed through this statement for a long time, and said in disbelief: "In other words, the soul of the Black Sword Knight is on the sword, and the body is the tool?"
So they can't move after destroying their swords?
The truth......
Is that so?
”"I'm a little strange, hasn't anyone ever found out about this truth?"
Hao Ren frowned, "The Black Sword Knights have been active in this world for so many years, no matter how powerful they are, they are just elite troops, and there are more powerful guys than them, has no one ever separated them from their mechanical swords?"
Or is there no precedent for destroying a mechanical sword?
”"The mechanical sword and the body are connected by remote control, and the distance is probably not short, the signal receiver in their spinal cord can receive signals within half a planet, and this distance is completely sufficient for this blocked planet, so it should be useless to separate the black sword knight from the sword," Leah answered on behalf of the Charlemagne siblings, "and as for destroying their sword......
Those mechanical swords are very special, the material is weird, much stronger than the knight's body, I think in the case of a normal battle, it must be the knight himself who suffered a fatal wound first, and then it was their turn to be a sword, so the secret of these black sword knights has been kept to this day. ”"Until they meet such an out-of-spec combat power as you," Hao Ren glanced at Leah, "and directly dismantled their weapons......"
"And the secrets of the Black Sword Knight are probably not completely unknown," Charlemagne said, "I have heard from my court mentor about the Dragonon Empire, and I have also mentioned that the Black Sword Knight lodges his soul on the sword - but this theory is usually regarded as a legend on the White City Federation. ”Hao Ren nodded: "The information is not smooth, the sample is too small, and the search for the truth will not bring matching benefits, so the secret will be maintained." ”At this time, Vivien suddenly remembered something and exclaimed in a low voice: "Ah, if that's really the case......
I'm afraid none of the three Black Sword Knights we killed before that died.I saw very clearly at the time, although they were blown away, their swords were intact......
"Avena blinked, and said softly: "It is said that after the Black Sword Knight is killed in battle, its sword will be recovered by the attendants and sent to the 'Holy Arsenal' of the Black Steel Castle, and when the qualified candidates are selected, they will take over the mechanical sword from their ancestors and become the new Black Sword Knight, this process is called 'promotion', and the promoted Black Sword Knight will live a life similar to that of a monk, breaking with the previous life... … This is what I saw in the naturalists. ”Hao Ren's eyes narrowed: "So, these mechanical swords are passed down from generation to generation, and knights are consumables for one stubble after another......
But I have another question, is their mechanical sword broken and one missing?
Although those swords are very strong, they have not yet reached the point where the divine soldiers are not damaged, and they have always been consumed over the years, right?
In this way, won't the number of Black Sword Knights be getting smaller and smaller?
”"There will be new mechanical swords being forged to make up for the loss, so the size of the Black Sword Knights will not be reduced," Charlemagne said of the knowledge he had gained from the court mentors, "but correspondingly, their size has never increased - since the founding of the Dragon state, the Black Sword Knights have 770,000 soldiers, and since then the empire has expanded day by day, and the size of the Imperial Legion has increased countless times, but the Black Sword Knights have never increased by one or decreased by one, Even now that the Dragon's Empire has expanded to the point where the size of the Black Sword Knights is difficult to protect the entire territory, His Majesty Berendine has only added a large number of standing troops to fill the lack of the Knights, the real Black Sword Knights......
There are still only the 770,000 when they were in the army. ”770,000 people, this is a very delicate number, for a small kingdom that has just been established, such a large number of super soldiers is enough to allow it to sweep all the surrounding opponents of the same level, or even sweep the level, but when the Dragonon Empire expands to occupy half a planet, this number is obviously not enough to deal with the long border.According to Charlemagne, the new mechanical sword can be forged, so the factors that will balance the size of this knighthood are curious."
There's only one explanation, they can only forge 770,000 mechanical swords, and the number of certain key ingredients is limited," Vivien said thoughtfully, "Considering the function of these swords, maybe this ingredient is a soul......
But is the soul also finite?
”"This is probably only known to the Brending himself," Hao Ren shrugged, "Anyway, these 'Black Sword Knights' are full of mysteries, and this is not a secret.I haven't figured out why they've mutated like this. ”The data terminal shook its body up and down: "That's right, according to what the brother and sister just said, the normal black sword knight is actually the same as a normal human in appearance, and the machine also confirmed this when it scanned their body structure just now - the mechanization in their body only strengthens the body function, and will not cause the external image to become a monster, this is a fairly mature mechanical synthetic human technology, and theoretically there is no toxicity." ”"In other words, there is something else that causes these originally normal-looking Black Sword Knights to become like relatives of the ancient gods," Hao Ren rubbed his eyebrows, vaguely feeling that he was coming into contact with some truth, "Leah, can you feel any ......
'breath' from them?"
Like the influence of the Lord of Madness or something. ”Leah hummed and felt it seriously for a moment, and then the little goddess shook her head: "No, I can't feel it at all." ”But then she added: "But the possibility cannot be completely ruled out, maybe the breath is too weak and has reached the level of indistinguishability, or maybe the residual madness power of this world has changed and become something I don't know - we still have to keep an eye on it, after all, the mutations that these knights have now are full of blasphemy, how do you look like the painting style of the Lord of the Hustle......"
Charlemagne and Avenna were confused when they heard it, and said in unison: "What is the Lord of the Hustle?"

”"Abstract performance artists, especially can harm your aesthetics," Hao Ren waved his hand perfunctorily, "I don't know if I can tell you yet, so don't ask yet."
We now have a more important question than that......
Are we sure we're not on the wrong track?
