Almost identical to the metal puppet that previously pursued Ronan, the difference lies in the black humanoid which had a rust-covered, unrecognizable head. Moreover, its body was in a semi-illusory state and it lacked the signature massive dark hammer.
According to the essence provided by the spell medium, it can replicate the original form of the medium to a certain extent.
After Ronan emerged, this spell was being cast for the first time.
Ronan observed the Magic Puppet summoned through [Mirror Soul] Spell, thought for a moment, and then made further modifications to it.
He slightly lifted his right hand, and the metals from surrounding streets and buildings began to peel away and converge towards the black figure, quickly forming a substantial puppet-like body.
It even replicated the original puppet’s giant hammer weapon on a one-to-one scale, although the quality was vastly different, it nonetheless added some lethality.
Ronan commanded the puppet to attack, and it smashed the ground, creating a crater of moderate size.
Its strength was roughly equivalent to a typical level 2 Wizard, which Ronan found satisfying.
Within the Mechanical Heart, where metals and Metal Attribute Free Energy Particles had a high concentration, summoning a Metal Magic Puppet was undoubtedly the most appropriate choice.
Although the puppet’s strength was average, the ease of its summoning was a plus, and there’s no regret if it gets damaged as metals suitable for use as media were abundant everywhere.
The summoned beings from [Mirror Soul] Spell, though disposable, would not disappear until the spell medium was completely depleted.
Ronan even considered temporarily forming an army of Magic Puppets in the Mechanical Heart.
Of course, that was an exaggerated statement; even if it were possible, Ronan didn’t have the energy for such, a small puppet squad would be sufficient and quite handy.
Ordering the Metal Magic Puppet to guard the area, Ronan then took the opportunity to examine the metal box found by Dudor the Third.
It looked almost identical to the Magic Box given to him by Kosti, apparently, it was indeed Schiper’s Surprise Magic Box.
Even Ronan hadn’t expected to find one so quickly, hardly putting in much effort, which brought him slight anticipation.
He picked up the Magic Box, scrutinizing it closely.
Kosti had informed him how to unlock the Magic Box, stating it required solving the "lock" on it first.
The lock wasn’t complex; the main difficulty was in acquiring the Magic Box itself.
Ronan watched the numerous rotating gears on the box for a while, then reached out a finger to lightly tweak a few gears.
After a sequence of mechanical sounds, all the gears on the black metallic Magic Box stopped turning at once, and a faint white light emitted from it, followed by the box opening outwards in all directions like a blooming flower.
A thumb-sized Crystal Potion Bottle lay quietly inside the box.
Ronan picked up the bottle and looking through its crystal clear body, he could see the fingerprints on his thumb.
Ronan frowned slightly, shook the bottle gently, and then noticed there was a potion inside. It was just so transparent and clear that at first glance, it seemed like an empty bottle.
Ronan hesitated momentarily but decided to open the Potion Bottle.
He pressed the bottle’s lip with his thumb, slightly tilted the Crystal Bottle allowing a drop of the potion to touch the tip of his thumb.
The moment the liquid touched his thumb, it disappeared instantly.
"Invisibility Potion?!"
Ronan blinked and after repeated trials, confirmed that this was indeed a special potion that caused objects to turn invisible. It was much stronger than the typical Invisibility Potion, perfectly hiding not only one’s appearance but also odor, body temperature, soul aura, and fluctuations in spiritual power.
A slight delight appeared in Ronan’s eyes; this potion could be useful at times.
He estimated that this bottle of "Invisibility Potion" could be used two to three times; if not highly diluted, perhaps more than ten times.
As for the duration of the potion’s effect...
At least after a preliminary analysis by Ronan, his vanished thumb hadn’t reappeared yet.
Ronan tossed the first golden gear to Dudor the Third, who made a cheerful "meh" sound, then gobbled up the golden gear like a small biscuit.
Ronan had examined the composition of the golden gear. The material was quite ordinary, even inferior to his Magic Nightmare Tungsten Steel and Neiman Alloy, but it was imbued with a unique magical power, making it extraordinary.
It resembled the effect of [Silverization].
It had some research value, but the metal itself wasn’t of much value. Now that he had another Magic Box, he didn’t mind giving the gear to Dudor the Third as a snack.
Ronan fed Dudor the Third some more metals.
Ronan didn’t need the mutual sensing function of the Magic Box right now, entirely relying on Dudor the Third, treating him like a "search dog" to be utilized.
Dudor the Third seemed quite willing to be at Ronan’s service, sprinting off quickly with his four short legs.
The metal Magic Box unfolded like a flower before Ronan, emitting a white light that dissipated, releasing a torrent of dark green, foul-smelling gas from within.
