Chapter 2942: Chapter 980: The "Miracle" of the Mechanical Church - True Overlord Learning Machine

The news of players breaking through a stronghold of the Mechanical Church and rescuing the Pallian Sisters was quickly reported up the chain and reached Murphy, who couldn’t help but marvel at the swift actions of his players, considering them Transylvania’s rapid response force.

However, upon hearing that the Pallian Sisters were suspected of being "brainwashed," Murphy immediately frowned.

These two girls were not considered significant figures in Transylvania’s political spectrum; even if they returned home, they would find it difficult to directly contact the upper ranks, let alone engage in any "special operations."

The Mechanical Church exerted great effort to brainwash the Pallian Sisters; the whole affair seemed odd, with a low cost-effectiveness, but if it was merely to add two members to the Church, the scale of the operation seemed oversized.

Given the strangeness hinted both inside and out, Murphy decided to go and see for himself.

After hearing that the missing persons had been rescued, Master Minks, who was gathering mechanics for an underground operation, arrived with several of his students just as Murphy completed the examination of the Pallian Sisters in the area controlled by the heroes.

Though not a Psychic, Murphy was not professionally adept at dealing with residual powers on the spiritual plane, yet even so, he noticed the abnormal dilation of the pupils of the two girls.

"This does not resemble a Charm Skill or other mental control effects. I have seen Triss use suggestion techniques, and Psychics capable of using enchantment or suggestion usually do not leave such apparent flaws."

Murphy seriously said to the Dust Beater beside him:

"It seems you need some professional help. Quickly take your girlfriends to the Blood Covenant Clan’s base; descendants of arrogance have strong resistance to mental attacks, and the Grand Duke of Triss is there. She will surely help Delia and Mia recover quickly."

"Sure, I will go right away."

When the Dust Beater saw Sir Murphy coming over personally, his heart settled. In this game world, Murphy is probably the character that gives little players the most sense of security.

Past experiences have proven that no matter how bad the situation is, as long as Sir Murphy steps in, everything will get better.

However, when the Dust Beater and his good brother Bricklayer, along with his fiancée, Earth Princess, prepared to move the two unconscious girls, Master Minks, who came over with a refined mechanized cane, said:

"Before sending the patients away, can I check their condition? Although I am not a Psychic, I have dealt with similar situations before."

"Please have a look then."

Seeing that Master Minks was volunteering to help, Murphy immediately gestured "please" and informed the players of the bearded old half-body man’s identity. Upon hearing that he was one of the leaders of the half-body man’s faction, all the players collected their smiles and showed their most reliable side, hoping to earn goodwill in front of the leader.

Master Minks did not inspect the Pallian Sisters’ physical condition like a doctor; he used a very special, clock-like device to awaken the two girls ensnared in sleep by the Divine Arts, then asked gently:

"Don’t be afraid, I only want to ask a few questions... Did the members of the Mechanical Church use ’Wisdom Enlightenment’ on you?"

"What is that?"

Delia, shrinking timidly in the Dust Beater’s arms, asked quietly.

She hugged her sister tightly and inquired in a low voice. The old half-body man succinctly explained:

"It is an engineering device, with a release end resembling a meticulously crafted mechanical headband, often used in conjunction with a main device that looks like a vending machine.

Once you put on that thing, specific knowledge will be ’copied’ and transmitted into your mind through brainwave resonance. As far as I know, whenever a Sage of the Mechanical Church senses imminent death, they use this method to mass-train mechanic apprentices, choosing disciples capable of inheriting their expertise from among them.

Your companions were just discussing the strange things happening to you.

Within just a few days, you went from knowing nothing about engineering to quickly progressing to the point of assembling mechanical squirrels on your own. In Charldo Harbor, only such ’Wisdom Enlightenment’ could achieve similar effects."

"We... we don’t recall, Master."

The braver sister among the Pallian Sisters, Mia, whispered:

"But we did indeed learn that knowledge when we woke up on the second day after being invited to the Mechanical Church stronghold, and that night both my sister and I had nightmares..."

"Hmm, it seems to be Wisdom Enlightenment for sure."

Master Minks nodded and turned to take a mechanical box filled with medicine from the disciple behind him, handing it to the Dust Beater, saying:

"This medication can help stabilize the brain’s active areas quickly, but do not overconsume; take two pills per person each day, and until their spirit stabilizes, avoid spicy and stimulating foods, ensure they rest, don’t stay up late, and refrain from reading or learning other knowledge during this period."

The old half-body man seriously advised:

"Wise Enlightenment has altered their brain structure, this change is not permanent, but the infused knowledge can be retained. If you want to retain that knowledge, consuming half of the medicine in the box will suffice."
