Angel-type automatons are also divided into three grades.
The [Dagger] used by the miscellaneous fish; the [Great Sword] used by Loki, and the [Golden Great Sword] that finally appeared in front of the two of them.
You can feel the difference in the sense of oppression.
But to be honest, the magic power on it is not as much as Loki's.
[Five Visions] Help Xiao Lin quickly find the enemy. He raised his head and looked at the window on the third floor. A slender gentleman was looking down at Xiao Lin and Loki calmly. His expression was calm and not because the two were making a fuss like Erha. Lose your composure.
The gentleman stepped on the window frame, leaped into the air, and then landed in the atrium as light as a feather.
Xiao Lin raised his eyebrows.
If this is an effect achieved through telekinesis, it is really an amazing amount of control.
"I seem to be lucky."
The gentleman turned his chiseled face towards them and said coldly: "After all, you can get such a rare [part] in your pocket without any effort."
"——!"
Loki's eyes widened and his legs couldn't stop shaking, like a newborn deer.
The gentleman in front of him is Loki's father.
Bronson.
By the way, is it necessary to be so scared? No, fear is for sure. The fear that has been built up in Loki's mind for a long time makes him dare not resist even if he can show his fangs to the opponent.
Bronson looked at the two of them and said indifferently: "Luring him into the trap that was already laid, you did a good job, son."
Hearing his words, Loki shouted excitedly to Xiaolin: "Don't believe it, this is...!"
"Sowing discord."
Xiaolin took over, while sighing and shaking his head with regret and said: "You are too panicked. If it were Akabane-kun, he would definitely take the opportunity to act and attack at the critical moment. It is a pity to waste such a good opportunity."
In the final analysis, there is still no tacit understanding.
In other words, after meeting "father" Bronson, Loki lost his usual calmness.
Loki clenched his fists.
He was angry, but not at Xiao Lin, but at himself for not living up to expectations. Showing intense anger, he glared at his adoptive father Bronson.
On the contrary, Bronson looked calm and glanced at Loki with his sharp eyes.
"Just follow my words and act according to my ideas, and your mistakes will be erased. Son, are you crazy?"
"...I was crazy before. I had no doubts about anything and just waggled my tail at you. But a fool who would rather be tied to the gallows than save my sister woke me up! So! I'm back to normal now!"
Gabriel behind him reacted to his master's anger and raised his two long swords on the left and right.
Loki released his magic power and let it charge forward, shouting, "Go to hell!"
Controlling Gabriel is heavier than it appears on the outside. It's like riding a unicycle while carrying a hundred kilograms of weight. If you're not careful, you'll lose control.
But Loki was completely unaffected, which shows his talent and strength.
Gabriel raised his long sword high and swung it towards Bronson's neck with great precision.
However--
A white feather-like dagger intercepted it, but it didn't move at all after receiving the fierce blow just now.
What dominance is this!
Gabriel jumped back to distance himself, but there was a golden sword waiting there for a long time. The towering golden sword instantly changed its form and turned into the shape of a human, the golden angel Lucifer. Like Gabriel, it held a long sword in both hands, and then slashed downwards.
There was a loud noise, and the unsuspecting Gabriel was struck by the long sword in his back bone, which broke instantly.
"Tsk."
Loki smacked his tongue softly and glared at Xiaolin in displeasure.
It's all because the man in front of him relied on brute force to dismantle Gabriel until he was reduced to his body, otherwise he might not be able to deal with Lucifer for a while with a dozen floating daggers.
Xiao Lin asked strangely: "What's wrong?
, looking at me like this. "
"Humph, I'm just unhappy that you're getting in the way here." Loki's venomous tongue skills are not low either. He said bluntly: "Get out of here, don't get in the way here!"
At the same time, he swung his sword to slash at Lucifer, but it slid across the surface nonchalantly, making the blow in vain.
——Hot air operation.
The magic circuit equipped on the angel-shaped automaton, the trick "Father" Bronson used just now, is to use high-density hot air to offset attacks, a magic that is deeper and more subtle than spinning.
Just can't believe it.
It's like shooting a bullet at an incoming bullet to change its trajectory.
Loki's expression was wrong.
"Gabriel, turn around!"
After receiving the order, Gabriel changed into a sword stance.
In an instant, Xiao Lin's perception made him aware of the jet nozzle that was invisible to the naked eye, and the concentrated spray of hot air, which he felt as real as if he had seen it with his own eyes.
Jet, and gain reaction.
There is more than one jet port, and the sword acquires complex maneuverability under the combination of multiple thrusts.
With that huge thrust, the sword flew through the air.
Loki tried his best?
Before Xiao Lin had time to react, the sword transformed from Loki's automaton drew a large arc in the air and slashed towards Lucifer.
But Lucifer doesn't go head-to-head.
Instead, he stepped back and fired four daggers at the same time. The dagger passed by Gabriel and directly attacked Loki who was standing behind him.
A popping sound.
Four daggers penetrated Loki's body, two slicing through the shoulders and two piercing the abdomen.
The arrogant middle school boy was knocked to the ground, his whole body limp.
Seeing Loki struggling in pain, "Father" Bronson said with a disappointed look on his face: "It's really stupid. In actual combat, it is common sense to attack the manipulator."
"Same feeling. Dolls are much easier to deal with than automatons."
Xiao Lin nodded in agreement.
Loki turned his head in pain, saw Xiao Lin standing next to him, and roared: "You idiot! Why are you still here? Didn't I tell you to stop being in the way?"
"...Well, no matter how you look at it, I'm not in the way. After all, you were knocked down all at once." Xiao Lin complained.
From his perspective, Loki is "I'm on it!" One move was instantaneous! What’s there to say! 】The slogans are quite passionate, but they can't even stop the enemy's footsteps, which is too embarrassing.
Xiao Lin took a step forward, stood in front of Loki, and said:
"Although I am humble and tolerant...but there are still three types of people who cannot be forgiven: those who order me, those who resist me, and those who are more pretentious than me!"
"you……"
Loki's eyes widened slightly as he lay on the ground.
It was clear that he was robbed of his lines, but this time he was not angry at all.
"Hmph." Bronson snorted softly and said to Xiaolin: "I have seen your battles, and your magic affinity is very high, higher than mine... No, higher than anyone I have ever seen. high."
He has a very high opinion of Xiao Lin.
Even--
"So, do you want to come to my place and join the D-orks workshop?"
"……What did you say?"
Xiao Lin frowned slightly, not understanding what he wanted to express.
Bronson opened his hands and said rather enthusiastically: "I was too one-sided before. I blindly believed that with magic power, I could create automatic dolls that could influence the battlefield. For this reason, I even forced them to treat the experimental subjects as consumables. No matter what it takes. But after seeing you, I understand that magic power alone is not enough! - The affinity for magic power is the key to a high degree of matching with the automaton!"
"I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're talking about at all. Speaking of which, I'm just an incompetent puppet maker." Xiao Lin spread his hands to express that he was just a layman.
"Well, that's really a shame.
regret. "
Bronson suddenly lost interest in showing off his knowledge. After all, what insiders said to outsiders was just a waste of time.
However, this does not affect his continued recruitment of Xiao Lin.
For this reason, Bronson offered a very high price: "I can give Fleur to you, or even stop her and Loki from participating in the experiment. Even if I don't abandon those [Gams], I can promise you. "
"Oh ho? It's really a tempting bargaining chip." Xiao Lin pinched his chin, but his eyes became sharp, "Then, what's the price?"
"Bear me a child."
"……What?"
"I want you and Fleur to have ten...no, a hundred children for me!"
His words echoed in the silent night sky.
Loki's eyes widened as he lay on the ground, not believing his ears.
Xiao Lin couldn't help complaining and said, "Do you think Fleur is a pig? She gives birth to ten babies in one litter, and she gives birth to ten babies in ten years?"
After hearing the other party's ridiculous conditions, I even began to wonder if the other party was insane.
Can anyone come up with this?
It’s too outrageous!
Bronson is obviously not a person without common sense. He said: "Of course, Fleur alone cannot complete this difficult task, but you also saw other Bai Shenzi (experiments) in the orphanage. Those children are yours to choose." . Even if it doesn’t suit your preferences, it doesn’t matter, I can make it again!”
It was clearly a condition that would make any man excited, but from his mouth Xiao Lin could only hear the contempt for life and the aloof indifference.
"Harem? It does sound like a good option, but...I refuse! I like to say No to self-righteous people the most!"
"Refuse? I think this is an excellent condition for you."
"That's just for you!"
Even if it is a simple exchange of interests, there are still situations where he is unwilling to accept it. What Xiaolin hates the most is the RT experiment!
He stared indifferently at the devil in gentleman's skin before him and said, "I have a question. What do you...take your life for?"
"...Do you think I'm cruel? But this is a necessary sacrifice."
Bronson chuckled and shook his head.
Then, he added: "The development and progress of science is a kind of accumulation, and there is no possibility of reverse progress. No, retrogression or stagnation is not allowed. For human beings, stagnation is equivalent to destruction. Mysterious research , the pursuit of truth, and the development of science are the paths we humans should take. Magicians must contribute to this development. This is why the academy exists, and the throne of the Demon King also exists..."
"you are lying."
Xiao Lin interrupted his eloquence and said bluntly: "What you do is completely based on the pain of others. It would be fine if it was really for progress, but the so-called development and progress are just for you to gain powerful power. False appearance, you have long become a slave to power."
"...Hmph, maybe."
After being exposed, Bronson did not continue the debate with Xiaolin.
He stretched out his hand gracefully and manipulated the great sword in the distance to rotate. The same moves as Loki's were more powerful in his hands.
Come straight to Xiaolin with strong wind.
Bronson's words followed: "Don't worry, I won't kill you. After all, you have a good body."
Apparently he regards Xiao Lin as a stallion.
"Thank you so much."
The big sword was about to hit his legs, but Xiao Lin remained motionless and just looked at him indifferently. Just when it was about to be divided into two pieces, two crossed sickles blocked the sword.
It's Liu Zi.
She, who had always been a passerby, finally took action at this moment.
Xiaolin said: "I am an incompetent puppet master, and I don't even understand the inner nature of my own waiter. But...my Liuzi is invincible, the strongest automatic puppet in the world! It is my sharpest weapon. , and also the strongest backing!"
As he spoke, the sickle bounced off the sword.
Liu Zi stood up with slightly red cheeks, feeling a little shy even though she had been praised many times.
Xiaolin pointed his finger at Bronson, and when the gentleman's face was slightly distorted, he said, "I agree with what you said. In actual combat, it is common sense to attack the manipulator."
"Hmph, it's useless."
Bronson called his angel-shaped automaton back to him and put up defense to protect him behind him.
He said proudly: "Don't be too proud, kid. After all, I am also someone who has touched the throne of the Demon King. Your doll girl alone cannot defeat my Lucifer."
"You are wrong. The outcome of this battle was determined from the very beginning. As I said, Liu Zi is invincible."
Xiao Lin waved his hand.
"——Imaginary number switch!"
It's like jumping through time.
From Loki's perspective, Liu Zi's figure disappeared instantly, and then appeared behind "father" Bronson.
Then she bowed to Xiao Lin with great grace.
She would actually do such a thing during a battle. Doesn't she want to live? Doesn't she know who the enemy is in front of her? !
But the next second.
In Loki's shocked expression, "Father" Bronson stopped. A large hole suddenly opened in his chest, bright red liquid spurted out, his pupils shrank and blurred, and he was mumbling something.
"No, it's impossible...how...could..."
Then, the arrogant "father" who had always given Loki a strong sense of oppression leaned back.
With a plop, he lay on the ground.
Xiao Lin put his hands on his back, looked up at the moon and said in a very pretentious manner: "Bronson, there is only one reason for your failure, and that is because you pissed me off."
At the same time, he kept watching Loki's reaction out of the corner of his eye.
I thought he would be shocked and speechless, or flatter him with compliments.
However--
"You idiot!"
"……Eh?"
Loki suddenly roared, startling Krillin. Z.br>
But he hasn't stopped yet.
"Since there is such a powerful trick, why not use it earlier!" 「
"This is a trump card. The battle depends on who has the most trump cards. You won't be able to use it until the last moment."
"Do you still need to hide the one just now? If you had taken action earlier, you would have won! Are you happy to let me lie on the ground? By the way, you probably didn't do it on purpose!"
"Eh? Isn't this your family rule?"
"Haha?! Are you an idiot? How could you have such ridiculous house rules!"
"Really, then I misunderstood."
"Sure enough, you guys just want to see my joke, don't you?"
"Hey, don't think that because you are Fleur's brother, you can throw dirty water on me. I will sue you for defamation!"
"Then I will complain to my sister and say that you intentionally caused me harm."
"Wait a minute, this move is too much!"
"Who told you not to use it earlier!"
"Next time, definitely next time."
Xiaolin helped Loki up, who was unable to move, and looked around as if he was looking for something.
"What's wrong."
"Hmm... I always feel like I've forgotten something."
There should be someone else who is right...
The two looked at each other, and then said in unison: "Yomi!" X2
"I'm here."
During the battle, Yomi hid somewhere, but when the battle was over, he ran out again.
Xiao Lin complained: "Why do you have less presence than Liu Zi?"
"Don't say that. Just like what the boy said just now, anyone who is in the way should move away. I can't help you, so..."
Yomi showed a rare embarrassed expression.
Forget it, it's the same with or without it. Anyway, it's another day when Liu Zi drags four people around.
Looking around, it was a mess.
If you get caught, you'll be in trouble. You have to go back quickly before the academy notices.
Slipping away.
