Now facing the broken array, he could undoubtedly use Deconstruction to locate the damaged spots and obtain the solution from the system.

This is undoubtedly good news.

It proves that Deconstruction is also useful in depicting and modifying alchemy arrays.

“Let me see where the damage is…” Fars Scott frowned as he inspected the array, completely unaware that someone at the scene could easily give him the answer.

“You guys stay outside and watch. Ray Lee, you stay here with me and be on guard,” Kent ordered.

The Sewage Collection Room became quiet, Fars took out his Rune Staff and repaired the damaged parts while pondering.

The whole team entered the working state.

In the next three hours, the team moved from the First Underground Level to the Second Underground Level, repairing the alchemy array of the Sewage Collection Room, Drying and Wetting Room, and Powder Recycling Room in sequence.

As they reached the entrance to the stairway from the Second Underground Level to the Third Underground Level, Kent raised his arm, clenched his fist, and signaled the team to stop.

“There must be enemies in the Third Underground Level because it is the isolation zone separating the Underground Waterway Area and the Fissure Corridor,” Kent warned solemnly.

He continued, “As I said before, do not let your guard down. In the Third Underground Level, there will not only be Aberrations but also possibly Illegal Alchemists of Black City. In the past, when I led the team, if there were casualties, it was definitely due to encountering Illegal Alchemists in the Third Underground Level. Now, everyone, check your firearms and alchemy bombs again. We have to go through the entire Third Underground Level and make sure all the metal sluice gates are closed. It’s a long and dangerous journey.”

Noland Lee took out his short-barreled rifle and checked the firing pin and repeating spring as his eyes glanced at Fars, only to see the other person extracting a peculiar alchemy object from the Alchemy Stone.

The appearance of this alchemy object resembled a spider, about the size of a basin, with eight metal mechanical legs and a metal shell. The overall color was a dim gray that blended easily in the underground area.

Upon closer inspection, it was not hard to see that the spider’s body and legs consisted purely of mechanical parts, and beneath its matte metal shell, Noland could vaguely sense energy fluctuations.

“What is this?” someone in the team curiously asked.

Fars smiled and replied, showing off, “This is the most cutting-edge alchemical product in the Alchemy Cathedral, mates. Its name is ‘Alchemical Construct,’ a type of alchemical product that can be controlled by an alchemist.

This little thing in my hand is an experimental product. I got it from the Academy, and my research task is related to it. I just happen to test its combat effectiveness in the Third Underground Level this time.”

“So how do you control it?” the curious baby in the team asked again.

“I use this,” Fars took out a thick leather glove from the Alchemy Stone:

“This glove has a whole set of alchemy arrays that can recognize gesture signals. I can use gestures to control the Alchemical Mechanical Spider.”

Fars put on the glove, shook his palm, and moved his fingers. His five fingers waved like waves in the air.

Receiving the gesture signal, the Alchemical Mechanical Spider tapped its legs in place like the sound of footsteps and performed various actions such as turning, jumping, rolling, agile, and lively, far more nimble than a real spider.

People in the team started to chat.

“What a nimble little thing…”

“It looks like it has a gun barrel in its mouth, Fars. Did you install firearms in

“Yes, you guessed it right. It has a shotgun inside it that can switch between buckshot and single slug. There’s a ‘Perceptual Link’ between it and me so I can directly see the images it sees and hear the sounds it hears, making it perfect for dangerous tasks.”

“So how many Alchemical Constructs can an alchemist control?”

“Good question. You may not know, but that’s the hottest topic in the alchemy world this year. As a First-Order Alchemist like me, I can only use my left and right hands to control alchemical constructs, and controlling two at a time is my limit. However, Third-Order Alchemists can use the ‘Supreme Calculation’ Alchemy Suit, which combines their thinking ability and the suit’s computing power to control ten or even more Alchemical Constructs at the same time.”

Noland’s gaze, hidden behind sunglasses, flickered as he looked at the chatty Fars…

When he had checked the panel information of the book “Supreme Computational Power” previously, he already knew the relationship between the alchemy suit and the Alchemical Construct. But he didn’t expect to see the real thing now.

He sent Deconstruction at the Mechanical Spider.

In the system feedback message, the string of zeros made Noland’s head ache.

It turned out that the Alchemical Construct needed 10,000 energy points to be completely deconstructed.

Not only that, the system also prompted him that he must meet the requirements for reading the book “Supreme Computational Power” before he could understand the deconstruction result of the Mechanical Spider.

Now Noland was clear about his own position.

In the field of alchemy, his level was equivalent to a second-grade elementary school student.

As for “Supreme Computational Power” and Alchemical Construct, they corresponded to the difficulty of doctoral research projects. No matter what, he needed to learn advanced mathematics and mathematical modeling first to understand the cutting-edge research reports.

The same goes for Alchemical Constructs and “Supreme Computational Power.”

However, just using Alchemical Constructs should not require such high standards, right..
