In the library transformed into a temporary laboratory, Perfikot was "dissecting" a maid automaton.
An already shut-down maid automaton lay on its back on the huge experimental table; its maid uniform was removed and neatly folded aside, and the panel on its abdomen was opened, revealing the intricate gears and steam core inside.
These maid automatons were also driven by steam. However, Perfikot's precise design allowed them to move freely without needing strong power, and models like Beifa could even burst forth with strong combat capability when needed.
But due to the use of a miniaturized steam core, the output of these maid automatons was limited, making it impossible for them to deliver stronger power.
After all, the abdominal cavity of a maid automaton only had that much space, and Perfikot had already streamlined their internal structure as much as possible, yet it was still challenging to fit a higher-power steam core inside.
