"The Days of Being a Spiritual Mentor in Meiman"
, the days when I was a spiritual mentor in Meiman
Whether the efficiency of energy acquisition is high or not, it can be compared to oil.
Global oil production is calculated in thousands of barrels per day. The daily oil production in Saudi Arabia alone is about 10 million barrels. As of March 2022, the global oil production is about 100 million barrels per day. Although It is now 1989, and the output is temporarily not so high, but there must be a lot.
As I said before, the size of the dark owl is about the same as that of a real owl. About 100,000 owls may sound like a lot, but if you pinch them together, they may not be equal to one minute of global oil production per day. Output, how can such efficiency work?
Therefore, Schiller began to organize everyone to further improve production efficiency. The main solutions are those that reduce time costs on the one hand and automate the entire process on the other.
Compressing the cost of time, because it is really difficult for these children to concentrate for a long time, and if they are unwilling to sing and confuse their pronunciation, there is no way to attract owls.
Moreover, it is also difficult to ensure that all these children are on time for work. Sometimes someone has something to do at home, and sometimes someone gets sick. The essence of doing this is to protect the children, so it is not possible to put the cart before the horse and exploit them. If so, the time cost is incompressible.
The use of human employees has such shortcomings, so everything falls on the head of mechanization. If humans can be replaced by machines, then as long as the energy is sufficient, he can work all the time, and there will be no problems of absenteeism or poor condition. .
In this regard, Constantine was almost driven crazy by Schiller, he said: "You want robots to use magic??? Do you listen to this rhetoric?!"
"They don't even have souls! Even if they can produce that kind of syllables with a recording device, it's impossible to attract owls!"
"That's why I need you." Schiller looked into Constantine's eyes and said, "Now you just have to figure out how to make something that won't get tired, and then let them fool owls."
Hal looked at Constantine with some sympathy, he had never seen Constantine so embarrassed and haggard.
Usually, Konstantin is a scumbag, and he still takes care of his image, otherwise he can't go around hanging around. In the past, he always looked like a British yuppie, and he has a unique charm when he is serious , People are attracted to him unconsciously.
Although he occasionally appears crazy and decadent due to excessive drug use, it also imbues him with a punk aesthetic, and there are still people who eat this set.
But now, Constantine can no longer be called a punk. The distance between him and Robinson is only a self-made spear.
Among the plan proposed by Schiller, Constantine is the most tiring, because he has to arrange hundreds of grids around the entire school room in a circle. He has not closed his eyes for more than a week, and he is unshaven. Very haggard.
If Schiller hadn't promised to give him 10% of the energy, he wouldn't have done this kind of work, and now, even if Schiller promised to give him 10% of the energy, he didn't want to do this kind of work anymore.
Konstantin scolded: "You **** capitalist, vampire! Give me a little favor, just want me to work for you like this..."
Schiller stretched out another finger, waved it in front of him, and said, "add another 10%, you can get 20% by yourself, Hal and I can only share 10%, and Bruce even has 10%." Not in Chengdu."
Konstantin was really going crazy. He felt that a devil named greed had come to him again. He could almost see the black flame burning behind Schiller, which made him more angry than any devil. crazy.
Gritting his teeth, he said: "You forced me to do this, it seems that I have to talk to my old friend."
After finishing speaking, Constantine left. Schiller didn't know who the old friend he was referring to, but he knew that some demons might be in trouble.
Two days later, Constantine came back even more haggard, and at the same time, brought back a small voodoo doll. He said: "I contacted all the friends I could contact, and finally found One way."
He put the voodoo doll in his hand, then put it in front of several people, and said: "This is a kind of magic from Africa, it's a bit like the kind of magic used by ghost mothers, and it's all aimed at children of."
"In African tribes, they put the souls of dead children into a special kind of voodoo doll, and the special devil will feel this soul, and then send power into the voodoo doll in exchange for Soul, the priests of the tribe can use this energy to cast spells."
"But where do we get the child's soul?" Hal asked: "Don't tell me, you want to..."
"I never thought about it, I'm a good person." Constantine said with a sigh.
Bruce glanced at him and seemed a little surprised, but what Constantine said was the truth. Whether it is in terms of deeds or heart, Constantine is actually a good person. On issues of principle, he and Batman Just as unshakable.
"I contacted the devil who would respond to this kind of spell. He told me that human priests are really cunning. With the development of modern medicine, fewer and fewer babies die, but the priests still want to continue using spells. They figured out another way."
"It may be possible to kill innocent children, but the efficiency is too low. They choose to deceive the devil, use a special ritual to forge the soul of the child, and after attracting the devil to pass by, trap them there, so that they can Use the power of the devil."
When Konstantin said this, he didn't think there was anything special at all, but Hal looked at Schiller, and Schiller looked at him and said, "What are you looking at me for? This only shows that, Human beings are like this, and I am not special."
Constantine nodded approvingly, and he said: "If you want me to say, the thing that human beings are best at is deception. We have many tricks in deception, and even cunning devils will be fooled occasionally. "
"However, their deception has been eliminated, because the devil will not be fooled again after being fooled once, and at most it just loses a little power, so now they have developed many other versions , but we can't use it."
"I found someone to contact the priest who can use this version of deception. He told me the method of forging a child's soul. The other materials needed are relatively simple, but there is only one thing that is difficult, and that is the need for breast milk."
"It's also easy to handle." Schiller looked at Bruce and said, "The Wayne Group should be able to solicit breast milk from the society for a fee in the name of medical experiments. As long as the price is high enough, it should be able to collect it soon. "
"One more question..." Schiller looked at Constantine again and said, "Can the soul of the forged child sing?"
"Of course not, it's just a bait, so I have to use another kind of magic to control this voodoo doll to sing."
"Do you need to control them all the time? What if you are tired?" Schiller asked a question again, and Constantine took a deep breath and said, "Although I don't need to control them all the time, but you It's really too greedy, you don't even want me to take a break..."
Schiller turned his head away from looking at him, and then said: "On the extremely efficient production line, no one can rest, including me."
Several people shook their heads, obviously they couldn't stand him, even Bruce, who likes to pursue high efficiency, felt that this was a bit too extreme.
Fortunately, it wasn't them who were exploited by Schiller. In the end, it was still the owl who was unlucky.
After a few more days of preparation, Constantine started to produce raw materials with all his strength. In order to prevent Constantine from exhausting himself, Schiller asked Hal to heal him with the energy of the green light.
As long as Constantine is tired, Hal will give him a healing spell, that's it. He was full of energy again, and under such inhuman exploitation, Constantine made thousands of voodoo dolls in a few days.
Then, he began to cast a puppet-manipulating spell on each doll, the same kind he used to control ghosts before, and after casting, he could make the voodoo dolls sing by themselves.
Then, after placing these dolls in the center of those formations, and starting the same process again, the efficiency doubled again, but Schiller was still not satisfied.
The point of his dissatisfaction is that every time he needs to manually clean up the magic circle, and then infuse energy into the ark reactor, although he is not tired or afraid of being bored, it still takes time. Time is money, and no waste is allowed in the extremely efficient production mode.
Therefore, he forced Constantine to start technical reforms, asking him to build automatic energy transmission lines between several magic circles, and then connect the lines to the ark reactor, so that automatic extraction can be realized The dark energy of the owl is planned.
Konstantin was really in bad luck. He wanted to run away several times without even paying for the sunk cost, but he was still caught by Schiller.
In the end, he also broke the pot and began to study how to make the energy pathways between the various magic circles.
As we all know, optimizing the circuit is the biggest difficulty in the automation game. Constantine was stuck on it for more than a week, but in the end, Constantine, who was stimulated to his full potential, still came up with the most efficient version. .
Finally, this huge equipment for automatically extracting the energy of the dark owl was completed. When the entire assembly line was in operation, the efficiency reached the highest level. Even one storage module of the Ark reactor was not enough, so Bruce added it temporarily. Got a few.
From the perspective of the spirit world, the entire living **** has become a huge oil drilling well. Countless magic circles are connected in lines to form a ball emitting red light, and countless dark owls are like moths to a flame. Generally, they rushed there, and finally all were annihilated in the light of the magic circle. The extracted energy pulsed into the ark reactor along the energy channel like a blood vessel, and was stored.
Until one day, all the owls disappeared, and Schiller, who was standing in the monitoring room, turned around and said to everyone: "...It seems that this plan has come to an end."
"No surprise." Bruce gave a conclusion, he said: "Even if this kind of rule runs automatically, judging from the efficiency of this device's energy extraction, they will react quickly."
"I'm more inclined, they are out of battery." Hal said thoughtfully: "If they can find out, they should have discovered it as early as when we completed the automation. If someone is really watching, they will definitely brake in an emergency."
"As early as the first time I swallowed energy, I knew that this kind of rule should be unsupervised." Schiller shook his head and said: "The reason why it will stop this time is probably because of the energy." It was taken away by us."
The reason why Schiller dared to extract this kind of dark energy so unscrupulously, without worrying that Barbatos would pay attention to it, was because he discovered that this energy should not be the original energy of Barbatos, but after some special energy. processed.
In other words, they are not picking up Barbatos' wool in real time. The Dark Owl Priest has already finished picking up the wool for them, and has even woven the wool into blankets. What they are stealing is actually the blankets in the inventory.
As for why Schiller feels that this kind of rule is unsupervised, it is not only because the dark owl did not respond when Aisha and the others devoured energy before, but also because, according to Gotham's historical records, the owl nursery rhyme spread A long time has passed.
In modern history, this song is no longer popular, and few children can sing it, which means that this set of rules has been abolished for a long time.
It will still take effect when it is awakened again, probably because the battery thrown here still has some residual power, and Schiller's purpose is to drain the residual power as soon as possible.
Some people may think that since the batteries have been discarded, it is not okay to steal electricity at any time? However, this is about Schiller's previous arrangement in the Met.
He knew there was an owl in Metropolis for a long time, so he deliberately gave the medal to Pikachu, and then borrowed Clark to tell Lex about the illegal intrusion of agents, and then let Lex go to the CIA agent.
Schiller, who has experienced the incident at the mayor’s mansion of the Metropolitan City, of course knows very well that after Benjamin’s death, the head of the CIA’s station in the Metropolis was replaced by female agent Keira, and Kayla is a KGB or Alf Reid's student.
After Kayla learned about this and received the medal, she would definitely notice that there are other mysterious forces in the metropolis. According to the KGB's way of doing things, a month has passed, and the owls in the metropolis are probably the ones who should fall. Bad luck.
In a secret meeting room under the sewers of the metropolis, a mysterious man in a black robe and a bird's beak mask said: "Those lunatics who don't believe in God have almost found here, although the great darkness The Overlord is everywhere, but for his cause, we need to stay out of the way..."
"But where are we going?" asked another mysterious man in a black robe.
"At the beginning, we left Gotham just to develop the power of the Metropolis, but now, we have several secret bases in the Metropolis, and there are many members of the Owl Council who stayed here... It's time to return Gotham is gone."
"That's right." Another deep and hoarse voice said: "When we left, we left the most precious statue of darkness there. The name ~IndoMTL.com~ Going back this time, I can just use those essence energy again..."
"Remember that spell?" A shrill female voice chanted, "Muliz...Muliz..."
Suddenly, she stopped and said, "What's the matter? Why didn't the statue respond to my call?... Come on... Owl... Come to me, and I will return to that place under your guidance. A Promised Land..."
"Muliz...Muliz..." All the men in black robes began to chant.
However, no owls flew over, they gradually stopped singing, and the room returned to silence. Go to a room with a giant owl statue.
This room is not only located underground in Gotham, but also protected by mysterious spells. It is inaudible and invisible. You can only use a special teleportation array to get here. means of concealment.
As soon as the leader of the dark owl priest landed, he was stunned, because the black owl, which was originally full of dark energy, had turned gray at this time. There is no trace of dark energy,
At the same time as they were going crazy, the four power thieves, Schiller, Bruce, Hal, and Constantine, stood in a row in the underground room.
Schiller took the lead and asked, "Recently, the energy loss of the dark owl priest has been very serious. Do you have any clues?"
Then, he looked up, looked at the dark energy storage modules piled into a hill, and said:
"... Anyway, I don't have one."
