While [ Zhongde ] led the players on a wild tour of Ginkgo Town, Motley, who was taken to the vicinity of the castle, ultimately could not escape his destined fate.
The Grand Knight Commander received his own wheelchair, a completely upgraded version compared to the one Bennett Motley.
This wasn't some kind of "preferential treatment"; it was simply because Motley was too strong, and as a member of the Tree Worship Church who lived in symbiosis with plants, he was naturally quite tough.
The electric shock that would make Bennett scream was only slightly better than a tickle on Motley; it wouldn't even make him groan.
But everyone has weaknesses. With his previous experience, Ed quickly found a new way to control the Grand Knight Commander and handed the new wheelchair to [ Traditional Eccentric Wheel ], who longed for automation to appear in this world, and [ Do Some Farm Work ], who longed for mechanized agriculture.
With its basic structure remaining unchanged, Motley's wheelchair can unleash Psionic Energy Formula " Disorder " that lasts for thirty seconds.
This is much scarier than electric shock. Although electric shock is painful, you can get used to it after a while. As long as you are prepared, you can grit your teeth and get through it.
However, " Disorder " is completely different. Just like the name of this spell, even if the same caster casts Disorder on the same target, the effect of the spell will never be exactly the same twice.
In other words, compared to predictable pain, Motley's punishment was more like opening a blind box.
If the primary attribute is transferred to [ Animal Compatibility ], his body will begin to grow scales, hair, or abnormal proliferation of bones and muscles in some parts of his body.
If the primary attribute is transferred to [ Mechanical Compatibility ], Motley, who has no mechanical armor or prosthetic body, will lose control of his body. Even more terrifying is that if Mechanical Compatibility reaches a certain level, he may even hallucinate that his wheelchair is talking to him.
But the most sinister thing is that his main attribute becomes [ Psionic Energy Compatibility ]. Whenever his Psionic Energy Vision is activated without warning, Motley feels his sanity rapidly slipping away.
Especially when Ed is nearby, once that terrible " Black Sun " appears, he completely loses his ability to think, and can only barely manage to avoid things like incontinence by relying on instinct.
With the threat of the devastating weapon " Disorder," Motley's level of submission was remarkably high.
However, his punishment went far beyond that.
Just as he easily subdued Yiden's [ Parasitic Boston Ivy ], Ed once again relied on Little Green's exceptionally high rank to outmaneuver Motley's symbiotic plant [ Resilient Beechwood ].
Without the symbiotic plant, Motley has Incarnation a completely incompetent husband, essentially a super punching bag with an incredibly high health bar.
However, his control over the plants remained, so following Ed's instructions, the two players, eager for automation, quickly began developing Motley's functionality...
But unlike Bennett, a pure Pavlov dog, the wheelchair-bound Motley has a higher potential, but is also more difficult to train.
Bennett is able to be manipulated by electric shocks because vampires rely heavily on hierarchy and Psionic Energy to transmit commands, a relatively subjective power system.
But Motley was assigned to the mechanical engineering program, which was different—for mechanical engineering, an objective subject, you simply can't do it if you don't know it.
Why are the Grand Foundry Master revered by everyone in the Graycast Corridor? Is it simply because they are powerful?
Wasn't it because he invented one mechanical structure after another, successfully protecting these people and allowing them to live a relatively stable life on this continent?
Therefore, both [ Do Some Farm Work ] and [ Traditional Eccentric Wheel ] have very similar expectations for Motley: let's teach him casually first, so that the work later will be much easier, after all, as the saying goes—
Even the most slow-witted person can't learn calculus, right?
Besides, they weren't going to teach Motley calculus; they just planned to give him a very basic introductory course in mechanics. As the Grand Knight Commander, Motley would surely learn it quickly... right?
At this very moment, in a house next to a farmland.
[ Do Some Farm Work ] is seriously questioning a student twice his age:
Please explain the definition of inner diameter.
Motley's forehead was covered in a fine layer of sweat, like a weak, pitiful, and helpless elementary school student being kept after school by the teacher.
"Uh, you know, the cylindrical one, the one inside the round object..."
[ Do Some Farm Work ]'s face fell. He slowly walked behind Motley and placed a hand on the " Disorder Controller":
"Looks like I still need to learn my lesson..."
"Wait, wait!"
Motley shouted anxiously, his mind suddenly clearing up:
"Inner circle! Diameter of the inner circle!"
[ Do Some Farm Work ] removed his hand from the lever and returned to Motley's front:
"You've passed this time, but..."
His face darkened.
"Your performance was much worse than I expected. I find it hard to accept that a Grand Knight Commander would behave like an idiot in this regard... If you still can't understand what I'm saying in a couple of days, we might as well have Simon come and listen instead."
"Get ready, the [ Traditional Eccentric Wheel ] is about to teach you about transmission."
Without giving Motley a chance to explain, he turned and left the room, leaving Motley alone, sitting blankly in his wheelchair.
Just now, he felt a long-lost fear, a fear he hadn't experienced in many years.
After rummaging through his memories, the forty-something Motley finally remembered where the fear came from. [ The Do Some Farm Work ]'s tone just now was like his first swordsmanship teacher when he was a child. He was a stern and unsmiling swordsmanship Master who liked to Tree Worship Church others down. No matter how hard he tried, he could never get any praise from him.
Back then, I was still a weak person, and I would work tirelessly to become stronger.
What about now?
What am I now?
As Motley fell into deep thought, [ Do Some Farm Work ], who had left the room, saw [ Traditional Eccentric Wheel ] approaching from a short distance away and quickly went up to greet him:
"You're here so early today? Where's Gray?"
"I took Bennett to catch Blood Corpse nearby."
He glanced in the direction of the room and asked:
How is he feeling today?
"Still clumsy, but a bit more obedient than before. Our PUA techniques should be working."
"That's good. I really hope he can help us soon..."
