Chapter 442: The Essence of Red Devouring

"What?!"

After all, Geelong was Yavid's biological father, and hearing that the Eclipse Cult might be related to King Geelong's madness, Yavid suddenly stood up from the golden throne.

"King."

Mallard turned his head to look at the people waiting in line on the spiral staircase of the council chamber, and gestured to Avid with his eyes.

"Whew~"

After controlling his emotions, Yavid let out a breath.

"Mallard, let the ministers leave the notes and retreat first, and I will return them one by one after the documents are corrected."

"Yes."

After Mallard took the order, Yavid stepped down from his throne.

"Lu Xiao, it's not convenient to discuss the matter of the first king here, come with me, let's change places."

……

Calga was founded only 500 years ago, and thanks to the fragments of knowledge excavated from ancient ruins, the civilization of the Kingdom of the Sun developed very rapidly, and it took only 500 years to have the prototype of the Earth Renaissance.

The two sides seem to live in different worlds compared to the Nora people, who still live a primitive life, and the development of civilization in the Calga Kingdom is at least 10 centuries ahead of the Nora people.

The Sun King's Palace covers a very large area, and Lu Xiao followed Yavid around the palace, and finally came to an open garden.

The Meridian City, built on a hilltop platform, is a beautiful sight, and a cascading waterfall can be seen in the lush mountains opposite the palace.

Yavid noticed Lu Xiao's movements along the way to watch the beautiful scenery, and after taking a seat in the garden pavilion, he asked proudly, "How is it?" How does the Kingdom of Calga compare to the tribes you've traveled to before? ”

Lu Xiao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Suddenly coming from a primitive society to a kingdom with a developed civilization, there is a strange sense of time and space separation. ”

Yavid smiled and took the wine glass from the maid's hand: "Many people who come to Meridian City for the first time say this, come, try the royal family's own red wine, which is brewed according to the ancient method." ”

The wine vessel is very exquisite, and the golden cup surface is inlaid with emerald green jade, which is gorgeous and does not look too extravagant.

Gently taking a sip of the red wine in the glass, Lu Xiao's tongue automatically analyzed the ingredients in the wine and determined that there was no form of "additive", and then began to truly taste the taste of red wine.

"Oh?"

Raising his eyebrows in some surprise, Lu Xiao said admiringly: "The fragrance is mellow, the taste is soft, and it is a great red wine." ”

This is not a special compliment for Lu Xiao, the manor he bought in Italy originally stored a lot of unsold red wine underneath, and after long-term drinking, Lu Xiao's taste for red wine is gradually improving.

Even in modern times, this high-quality red wine can be sought after by many enthusiasts.

"If only it suited your taste."

Yavid is not like some kings who like to be eloquent, and his attitude is also very calm when facing outsiders like Lu Xiao.

So far, Lu Xiao has a good impression of Yavid, he doesn't look like the kind of conspirator who kills his father for ambition.

"Let's get down to business."

Putting down the wine glass, Yavid's expression became solemn: "Lu Xiao, you said before that the Eclipse Sect may be related to the madness of the previous king, is there any evidence to prove it?" ”

Lu Xiao nodded: "There is no direct evidence, but indirect proof can be obtained through the patchwork of clues." ”

"First of all, King Geelong's madness coincided with the time of the Red Eat."

"Red Devouring is a mechanical frenzy, and the always gentle mechanical beasts suddenly went berserk inexplicably and began to actively attack the villages and towns inhabited by humans, right?"

"That's right."

Lu Xiao put the overclocking element he had obtained from the degrader on the stone table in the pavilion, and took out the red and black energy he had collected from the degrader.

Lu Xiao solemnly reminded the seal of the Rune in his hand: "King Yavid, please don't touch it directly with your hands, this corrupting energy will also cause harm to the human body. ”

Lu Xiaokong's left hand pointed to the overclocking component on the table: "This is the part I removed from the degrader, and the Eclipse Sect can forcibly control the machinery through it." ”

"And then there's this weird energy."

Lu Xiao tilted his head and asked Yavid, "By the way, does the royal family have domesticated mechanical beasts?" I can show you how. ”

"Yes."

Avid clapped his hands, and a veiled, coolly dressed maid walked out of the garden with small steps.

"Tell the palace guards to bring a watchman to the hunter's house."

"Yes."

About ten minutes later, several heavily armed palace guards arrived in the garden with a cart containing a small watcher, the weakest of the mechanical beasts, in a cage.

"Boom!"

The watcher never stopped ramming the cage, its monocular still spewing a weak beam of light, unable to break the special metal cage that bound it.

In order to ensure safety, Javid did not wave off the palace guards, but only asked them to retreat to a corner of the garden, so that they could be rescued at any time in case of accidents.

"Crunch!"

In front of Yavid, Lu Xiao bent the stout metal railing with his bare hands, grabbed the watcher's neck and dragged it out of the cage.

Yavid's brow twitched slightly, he didn't expect that the "ordinary traveler" with whom he had chatted quite happily before would have such terrifying powers.

Pressing the watchman to the ground, Lu Xiao gestured to Yavid, who was stopped behind by the palace guards.

"King Arvid, the current watcher is normal, not aggressive, and its resistance is only out of self-defense."

"Let's try the OC components first."

Lu Xiao pressed the parts seized from the Eclipse Cult onto the watcher, and after about five seconds, its original bright red indicator turned harmless blue.

Let go of the restrained watcher, it stood honestly beside Lu Xiao, and would only act if it received the command from Lu Xiao with Focus.

"It's amazing."

Avid said with some amazement, "If we can master this technology, the people of the Calga Kingdom will not have to worry about the mechanical beasts when they go out in the future." ”

Lu Xiao shrugged: "It's not that simple, the overclocking element can only control the small mechanical beast." ”

"I've done a special test, and I can't control a model of the size of the tooth mouth beast."

"Next ......"

Lu Xiao motioned for Yaved to step back, and he injected the red-black energy in his hand into the body of the watcher, who was no longer a threat.

At the same time as the energy invaded, the watcher's light changed from blue to black and red, and its body began to tremble uncontrollably.

The strange energy spreading from the watcher is corroding the lawn of the garden, and the flowers and plants that are contaminated are showing a decaying and withered yellow.

Avid was shocked: "Red Devour! ”

"Whew!"

Dodging the uncontrolled watcher's tail-flicking attack, Lu Xiao nodded in agreement: "That's right, the so-called Red Devouring is a mechanical beast that has been corrupted by this energy. ”

"Once it is touched, the core program of any machine will be distorted, and all moving objects around it will be attacked without distinguishing between friend and foe."

"Boom!"

At the end of the demonstration, Lu Xiao smashed a straight fist into the watcher's head without any fancy, completely destroying its ability to act.

Extracting unknown energy from the broken watcher's body, Lu Xiao sealed it again.

"Here's the proof."

Lu Xiao turned to look at Yavid, who frowned: "Although I haven't conducted human experiments, I have tested it with raccoon cats in the wild, and creatures corrupted by unknown energy can also be harmed. ”

"King Yavid, if you agree, you can bring a death row prisoner out of prison, and we'll do another experiment on the spot."
