The following two days passed in a flurry of activity that Han Yu had not anticipated would be so… exhausting.
Not physically, but mentally.
From the moment Han Yu had agreed to collaborate, Elder Jurhanzi transformed into an entirely different person. The previously composed and somewhat reserved elder now behaved like a man who had discovered a long-lost treasure.
He spoke faster.
He walked faster.
He thought even faster.
Han Yu quickly realized why the man was the head of the Research Division.
"Your force modulation is good, but it is still too linear," Jurhanzi said while pacing around the prototype puppet. "You need a layered response system. Something like cascading thresholds. If one fails, the next compensates. Also, the vibration feedback loop, good idea, but crude. We can refine it. Maybe embed a secondary sensing filament into the tools themselves…"
Han Yu listened carefully.
He did not interrupt.
He absorbed everything.
