Chapter 1270: The Secret Puppet Girl and the Mithril Warlock (III.)
"Natalia!" Isabel's eyes widened in disbelief, "You...... Still alive?! ”
However, she quickly regained her composure, stared at the black-haired and long-legged girl opposite, carefully observed the other party's metallic skin, and shook her head again and again: "That's not right! You're not my sister Natalia, you look alike, but you can't fool me, you're just a cold construct! ”
This sentence seemed to infuriate the secret girl who looked like Natalia, and her face suddenly sank, and she pounced on Isabel without warning.
Isabel hurriedly ducked behind Jack, clutching the wrench in her right hand and condensing a mechanism dedicated to destroying the construct in her left hand, ready to deal a blow to the monster who was pretending to be her sister. However, she greatly underestimated the other party's skills, and the secret puppet girl's body was covered with golden ripples, and the magic fluctuations transformed into a looming tanuki.
After receiving the blessing of magic power, the girl's steps became like that of a light tanuki, and she jumped over the head of the clockwork attendant and pounced on Isabel with a head-to-foot stance.
"Oops!" After all, Isabel lacked actual combat experience, and when she saw that the other party was like an eagle falcon swooping down on her head, she raised her hand in a panic and tried to release the trick.
Syllable! The Secret Puppet reached out with her right hand like lightning, grabbed Isabelle's wrist, and flew up and kicked her in the side of the neck.
Isabel didn't have time to react, only felt that it was dark in front of her, and then collapsed to the ground unconscious.
The secret puppet girl landed lightly, leaned down to look at the unconscious Isabel, her eyes were still indifferent, but there was a little more helplessness. Holding Isabel in her hands, she turned and walked out the door.
……
At the same time that Clockwork Squire Jack was sabotaging the steam boiler, in a warehouse not far away, Roland and Nikita were guided by Matway Wittgenstein to tour the magic locomotive he had modified.
Although Roland was not able to get Matvey out of the mountains to become Minister of Transportation, at least the other party accepted the idle position of cabinet adviser and was willing to provide technical support for the transportation industry in the Far East free of charge.
Just as Roland was listening intently to the old man's explanation of the working principle of the magic guide locomotive, a sneer suddenly came from behind him.
"Old man, after so many years, you are still addicted to this meaningless big toy, you are really getting younger and younger."
The sarcastic words seemed to come from a young man, but there was no fourth person in the warehouse. Matvey was stunned for a moment, then seemed to think of something, looked eagerly in the direction from which the laughter came, and called excitedly: "Leonid, my poor boy, are you back?" ”
"Poor boy?" The man in the stealth repeated the old man's call, and his laughter revealed contempt, "When you went to the garrison to denounce me six years ago, you already announced in public that you and I would sever the father-son relationship, so why do you pretend to be a loving father now?" It's not so much that I'm pitiful, it's better to say that you're being ridiculous hypocritical! ”
"Impolite bastard! Who taught you to speak to your father in this way? Miss Mage couldn't bear it anymore, and waved her hand to throw out a handful of "flash dust", "Unfilial rebel, you get out of here!" ”
Magical glitter dust spread through the warehouse, and a figure emerged, the gray cloak covered in dots of glowing dust, but his eyes were not blinded by the "glitter dust" as Nikita had expected, and he calmly pulled back his hood, revealing a strange face. At first glance, he appears to be a handsome young man, but upon closer inspection, he reveals that his facial muscles are unusually stiff, and he is actually made of Mithril.

Through the "Pupil of Fate" to see through the details of the uninvited guest, Roland was even more confused, and turned his head to ask the emotional Matvey: "That man is really Leonid?" But he doesn't look like a human at all......"
"He is indeed my son, Leonid Wittgenstein," said the old man with tears in his eyes, "six years ago...... Tempted by the devil, my poor son gave up his human body and turned himself into a mechanical man with a Mithril body. ”
"Hehe, my honorable father, forgive me for not agreeing with your criticism, Master Constantine is indeed from the hell of Bato, but what does it matter? At the very least, he will keep his promise to help me retrieve Natalia's soul so that she will merge with a secret puppet and stay by my side forever, and I will fulfill my promise to create a powerful constructed warrior for Lord Constantine, and cleanse this filthy world with the power of magic and steel! ”
This way of thinking is really enough for the second secondary school...... Roland complained secretly.
"Father, I've had a great time and fulfilled the past six years, and Master Constantine has funded my research, allowing me to use my talents to create any construct I want, whether it's a golem or a clockwork creature." Leonid raised his chin triumphantly and glanced contemptuously at the dusty magic locomotive, "What have you done all these years in comparison?" Isn't it still a waste of life like it used to be? My poor father, stop clinging to the magic locomotive, come with me to the film world, to see the results of my research over the years, to see what your son has invented, and when you see it, you will be proud of me! ”
Matvey sighed and shook his head gently: "Leonid, I have been thinking about you day and night for the past six years, hoping that you will return to my side, in order to apologize to you, six years ago I was wrong, and I chose the worst way to deal with the conflict between our father and son on impulse, for which I have paid the price, and I have regretted it for six years...... However, I don't think the effort I've spent on the Magic Locomotive is meaningless, and I can't agree with the path you have chosen! Leonid, following in the footsteps of the devil is destined to lead you astray, wake up and stop being obsessed! The old man spoke earnestly, trying to wake up his son, but all he got was a disdainful sneer.
"Old man, your thinking is outdated, my life is up to me, I don't need you to dictate my way!" Leonid cast a hateful gaze at the magic locomotive again, as if he was jealous of the sleeping machine for taking away his father's love, "I really don't understand, what is the point of the effort you have spent on this locomotive?" If you must let your modified locomotive work, why don't you serve the Imperial Government, go to the Holy City of Asshan to meet His Majesty the Emperor, and present your invention, after which you can build the railroad as you want, and apply what you have learned? ”
