Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer
chapter-251

After understanding enough about the thunder prison, Sam went on to the next object he has to evaluate.

The next object is the spherical glowing object he took out of those puppets.

First, he took out the one that belonged to the first puppet.

Without using any ability, Sam first observed it normally. Now that there is no glow covering it, he can now observe it clearly.

Just from his n.a.k.e.d vision he can get many details and first thing is that the object although spherical in shape looked like a combination of small cubic sections.

It is light blue in colour and each section can be felt as a separate entity.

He pressed some sections which acted like buttons, but nothing happened.

It was as if it was puzzle box and something would happen only if he presses the buttons in a right order.

He closed his eyes and used the observation ability.

He could see that the outer surface which is giving the object a spherical look is nothing but a shell or casing.

He could see the mechanism which is making this spherical casing as a lock. Inside the hollow structure, he can see a different mechanism occupying half the space inside.

After hours of studying the mechanism, Sam finally figured out the right combination and as soon as he keyed it in, the upper hemisphere split into four quadrants and moved towards four diagonals, revealing a mechanism inside.

The mechanism is not an orderly looking one. It looked like a random arrangement of small cubes, but when Sam used the observation ability, he found something familiar and that reminded him of the mechanism he just saw a little while ago.

It is similar to the brain of that thunder prison, but it is very, very common place and small compared to the brain.

In this structure also, there are many rooms. But he could sense that they are way less compared to the thunder prison. There must be around hundred or so rooms inside.

He sent his spiritual sense into the first room and he saw an altar but on this, rather than the diagrammatical sketches of a structure, there are some type of fist techniques that are engraved on it.

They are detailed and precise. Sam could sense that these are some of the moves that the puppet used on him.

He entered the next room. The altar is filled with movement techniques, the next one with kicking technique, the next one with some sword moves, wind moves, combos, fire spells, combos, water spells, combos… Every room was filled with something.

In the centre of the hall, instead of the pool, there was a platform. It looked like it was made for a person to sit.

Sam doesn't know how a person would enter, but he sent his conscious over to that and he himself felt as if he was able to sit there. And when that happened, he could sense all kinds of rooms and all kinds of techniques the rooms accommodated.

When he willed to get out of that, he returned back to the hall and was again looking at the platform.

He felt that the platform is from where a person can control all the rooms.

Since, this is a bit different from the thunder prison, he started listing the details of both mechanisms.

In thunder prison. Only one room was filled, it has power source, which is the pool. The room will be having a detailed drawing of the structure that the prison has to change into.

As for this one. It is similar to the brain in rooms, except for that, he could see that the rooms are already filled with techniques and the spiritual conscious of a person can take the control.

There is no power source.

From this he can deduce one thing and to verify that, he took out the puppet he stole from the palace and placed the sphere back inside. He created the gears with some random metal, so that he can use temporarily and fixed the puppet back.

He placed the puppet and once again he entered his conscious inside the spherical object which was inside the puppet.

Sam then spread his spiritual sense and suddenly the whole palace structure lit up.

He could sense his surroundings, along with his body, he can also sense the spiritual energy in the surroundings and he can also feel the limbs and the body of the puppet.

When he thought of walking, the puppet moved, but at that time a small wisp of spiritual energy entered the puppet from Sam's body and the surroundings and the spiritual energy travelled towards the palace and then converted itself into the motion energy. The gears and the links of the leg and the hip started moving and then the puppet took a step forward.

Soon, it took another step forward, and another one.

He stopped walking and sent the spiritual energy to the first room with the fist techniques and suddenly as set of techniques entered his mind and he even felt inherently familiar with the technique and once Sam thought of using them.

The hands of puppet punched through the wind as if it was cutting through it. He didn't feel that he controlled the motion or he performed it, rather it felt as if he was driving a robot.

He withdrew his consciousness and started drawing new speculations.

First one, the whole puppet and the sphere can form a robot.

The whole puppet is the body of the robot, the power source will be the person that is controlling it as well as the spiritual energy in the surroundings.

The sphere, is a Central processing unit and all the rooms inside the palace are like a storage which stores a programmed code of operation that the robots need to be performed and last the Intelligence which drives the robot, is the conscious of the person.

Sam felt that there are some drawbacks to the system.

Yes, the first thing he noticed are the drawbacks. First one being, the power source. If the puppet has an inherent power source, it can be more versatile, more powerful and more efficient.

The second one, is the intelligence unit. If he can create an artificial intelligence that could handle the control of the puppet, then he would be gaining another soldier by his side.

And this soldier is more trustworthy than any other human.

But he was stumped at one thing though. How did the palace of inheritance control a puppet? What is the use of the imprint that Sam destroyed?

He started thinking, he has some ideas of how to solve the issues. First one in particular, all he has to do is install an energy cell as the power source and he can even attach a magazine of energy cells near it. The magazine will be made of space jade and after one energy cell was emptied, another one can be used.

As for the second problem, he wasn't able to think about anything easily.

He is thinking but his knowledge is clearly limited by his abilities. Then he had a sudden epiphany after a day of brainstorming and entered the library inside the tower.

He went towards the data related to dark element and researched the soul section in particular.

After more than two days inside the library, he finally got what he wanted.

A skill specific to the dark element. An inscription master with the dark element can only use this. The Soul enchantment and Soul imprint.

These two practices made it possible for the puppet to be controlled.

First skill, soul enchantment, is summoning a stray soul from the death. Souls that escaped the reincarnation cycle.

Or by forcing a soul to escape the cycle and placing attaching to an object.

The soul which is highly related to the conscious of a person.

This can replace Sam's conscious in the puppet.

As for soul imprint. This is the imprint which bounds the soul to the enchanter.

If Sam were to use this, he can place a soul which will use its sentience and intelligence to activate the attacks that are engraved in the rooms and the soul imprint will let him command the soul to use the puppet as he wants and not let it cross his words at all times.

In this way, Sam can indirectly control the movements of the puppet without leaving his body. Now he understood why there was an imprint on the back of the puppet and the string of spiritual energy that was holding the imprint.

The palace must have used a similar method, if not the same and that string is the one that connects the puppet to the palace through which the spiritual energy will be transmitted acting as a power source.

Sam felt that his deductions have a very high possibility of being right and after discovering the existence of this technology right in his hands and also having the raw materials in his possession, Sam felt thoroughly excited.

Now, he has one more research direction he has to pursue.
