Chapter 23 Only unreserved trust is the basis for mutual protection

Yue Chen and Jack were dragged by Helena to Edison's underground workshop early in the morning. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Edison and Tesla tugged at each other's collars and argued whether the robot would be powered by alternating current or direct current.

Edison's hair exploded at the roots, and he showed his sharp teeth like a demonstrator at Tesla: "Fart!" How could I possibly let a dirty AC motor pollute this great invention of genius! What's more, it is impossible for an AC-powered motor to run my machine! ”

"Humph! Is there any other use for direct current than electric chairs? Compared to this murderous current, my alternating current is the most stable, perfect, and most capable of embodying the art of thunder and lightning! Tesla's metal arm emitted electricity and pointed it at the lion in front of him.

Yue Chen, who passed by the two of them, asked Helena weakly: "What, how long have the two of them been arguing?" ”

"Hmm...... Since yesterday's dinner, I've been arguing there, really, it's just a power source, and it's been arguing like this until now. ”

Yue Chen looked at the two people who were still roaring, and couldn't say anything except for a word about his mother's sale.

Can they really do their job like this?

"Ahh

By this moment, he had followed Helena to a clearing, and Frankenstein was standing in front of them, carrying a hammer in his hand.

Unlike the original production lines, this area is more akin to the punk style than the steam age of the Industrial Revolution.

"This is the vacant space that I asked Charles to vacate for us yesterday." Helena said.

"Well, this is Babbage's workshop." Yue Chen said, "What about the Babbages? ”

"I'm going to patrol with some robots that have already been built~" Helena laughed, "Although those two stupid people who claim to be geniuses have been arguing there, the work has not been left behind, and some basic assault robots have been sent to the front line." ”

【Ding! The system prompts that player Yue Chen has killed 500 zombies and won the title of "Zombie Hunter"! 】

"What the hell, I've been standing here, and I've already killed 500 zombies?"

"Well, after all, the zombies killed by your Servant are also counted as your kills~" Mozuku said with a smile.

"Wouldn't that break the rules?" Yue Chen scratched his head and asked, after all, even he felt that this was really cheating.

"Is it difficult for the summoner to call out a bunch of junior brothers to fight, and it can't be considered cheating?" Mo Shizuku said.

Yue Chen continued to ask, "But the problem is that Babbage and Edison can't be counted as summoned by me?" ”

Moszuku nodded, and continued, "Oh, you said this kind of thing, indeed, about this, I think there should be maintenance soon-"

Mo Shizuku's voice stopped abruptly, and at the same time, in Yue Chen's mind, a conversation window appeared-

[The Destiny Crown System has entered emergency temporary maintenance, the estimated maintenance time is 8:00a.m~11:00a.m, please forgive me for the inconvenience caused to players. 】

"It's maintained again, how many stones will be compensated this time?"

"What's wrong? Mr. Yue Chen? Helena asked.

Yue Chen shook his head, then looked at Frankenstein and asked, "Okay, then what are we going to do next?" ”

"Mom? Need Jack for anything? Jack grabbed the corner of Yue Chen's clothes and asked a little nervously.

Helena didn't say a word, and pushed Yue Chen and Jack into the open space and stood in front of Frankenstein. The next moment, a metal cage fell from the sky, completely enveloping the three of them.

"Huh!?" Yue Chen and Jack were taken aback by this sudden change and looked around a little bewildered.

Helena showed a charming smile and said: "Be careful, Mr. Yue Chen, this is an electrified iron cage made by me asked Thomas, a real high-voltage electricity, maybe Jack will be fine, but you are afraid that it is not necessarily, if you accidentally touch it, you will die." ”

Helena looked at Frankenstein and said with a smile: "Fran, you don't need to keep your hands, use your full strength to attack!" ”

"Ahβ€”β€”β€”β€”!!!h

When Frankenstein heard this, she immediately let out a shout of unknown meaning from her mouth, and the next moment, the hammer-shaped treasure in her hand, "Maiden's Chastity", burst out with a strong electric current and smashed it at the two people in a daze!

β€œοΌοΌŸβ€

Yue Chen felt that he was shrouded in fear for a moment - Frankenstein's speed was too fast, yes, this is the power that the Servant has, and it is an existence that far exceeds the limit reaction speed of human beings!

"Mom! Be careful! ”

Jack immediately knocked Yue Chen down, and he was able to dodge this almost a fatal blow for him!

The hammer fell to the ground, and dazzling lightning erupted from the spot, and a burning smell came from the floor - the originally flat ground was dented, and the floor near the depression was completely scorched by the thunder and lightning!

"Isn't that going to work?" Helena crossed her arms and said, "If that's all there is to it, I might have to change my attitude towards you, Mr. Yue Chen." ”

"Ahh Frankenstein once again raised the treasure and let out a low roar at Yue Chen and Jack, only this time, Yue Chen could understand what Frankenstein meant - if he didn't attack, he would die!

"Jack, please attack!"

"Okay! Mommy, Jack - [we] are going to go! Jack took the dagger from behind her back, and the moment she got it, her expression changed.

A cold breath came out of her body, stripped of her lovely daughter's coat, and in her, Jack's reality, she was still the shocking ripper!

β€œβ€”β€”β€”β€”β€

At this moment, Yue Chen was suddenly a little speechless, he had an urge to stop Jack, and even- he felt that even if he went up to replace Jack, he could do it.

However, Jack is a little faster than him, and she has already rushed to Frankenstein to fight her!

Jack's speed far exceeds Frankenstein's, but the lightning attached to Frankenstein's body always makes it impossible to get close, and once he is close, he will be hit by lightning.

After all, in the novel, Frankenstein Frankenstein is a monster resurrected by thunder and lightning, so her treasure also has the ability to control lightning to attack.

Therefore, even if Jack's speed is fast, after a stalemate for a while, Jack is still caught by Frankenstein and hit by lightning, causing his movement speed to drop significantly.

In addition, Frankenstein's strength is also higher than that of Jack, and Jack, who has no speed advantage, is quickly suppressed by Frankenstein.

Helena frowned, she could obviously sense that something was wrong with Yue Chen, because Yue Chen was a little overwhelmed, or that his current emotional fluctuations were too big compared to before!

If it is really as Babbage said, Yue Chen is indeed a person with excellent command skills and adaptability, then it stands to reason that he should be able to defeat Frankenstein easily.

What's the problem? Helena couldn't help but ponder.

"Good morning, Blavatsky...... No, Miss Helena~"

McCarty and Poison Island came to Edison's workshop side by side, and just after they learned from Komuro Takako, Yue Chen and Jack were dragged away by Helena early in the morning, and out of curiosity, the two of them came to this clearing together.

"Good morning, William." Helena nodded and said with a smile, "How's the two of you going?" ”

Poison Island's face was a little red, no matter how she didn't get surprised, this kind of thing was still a little embarrassing for her.

McCarty laughed very calmly: "Well, thank you Miss Helena for your concern, I have a very close relationship with you now~"

Poison Island wrung McCarty's flesh behind his back, looked at Yue Chen and Jack in the center of the clearing, and couldn't help frowning.

"Yue Chen's mood seems to be a little unstable."

"Do you even see that? That looks like that's it. Helena nodded.

McCarty looked at Yue Chen and said, "Indeed, Master doesn't know what he's afraid of at this time, and hesitant or resistant, as if hesitating or resisting, seems to be struggling with the right and wrong of something......

"That's not what it was like when you were directing Mr. Charles."

Helena lowered her head and seemed to think of something: "Is it difficult, is it so?" ”

At this moment, Frankenstein and Jack staggered, but Jack was already a little out of breath.

"Ahh Hmmm......"

The hammer in Frankenstein's hand was still thundering, ready to launch a further attack, however, at this moment, the high-voltage electricity covering the iron cage suddenly disappeared, and Helena, who walked into the clearing, shouted.

"Wait a minute, Fran."

"Huh?"

Helena walked up to Yue Chen with a serious expression on her face, and said flatly, "Mr. Yue Chen, you are resisting from the bottom of your heart. ”

"............" Yue Chen lowered his head, he knew. Helena had probably read through her thoughts.

Helena looked at Yue Chen's eyes and said slowly, "You, you're afraid of Jack." ”

"Mom...... Mother? Hearing this, Jack suddenly turned his head and looked at Yue Chen in disbelief, "Why...... Be afraid of ......"

Yue Chen stood up and looked directly into Helena's eyes: "Indeed, I, I am indeed afraid, but Helena, you should know, I am not just afraid of Jack, no, in fact, I am not afraid of Jack." ”

Yue Chen stretched out his hand and said a little heavily: "Because I have personally experienced Jack's past, a total of twice, the first time, I couldn't face Jack for a long time because of fear. ”

"But, the second time, I was not afraid, but sad." Yue Chen looked at Jack and said solemnly, "I could clearly feel Jack's feelings, her pain, her sadness, her expectations - I have a deep understanding of all her feelings. ”

Yue Chen walked up to Jack and said a little heavily: "At that time, I really understood that whether it is from the mind or from her thoughts, Jack will always be just a child, an ordinary little girl, and I hope she can really live like a little girl." ”

"Stay away from fighting, stay away from killing, it's not for her, as long as you don't take up arms, Jack is just an ordinary little girl, and once you pick up weapons, Jack ...... will become a [Ripper], which is the last thing I want to see......"

"Then you shouldn't have brought Jack over." Helena said solemnly, "If you want Jack to fight, why did you bring her to this place closest to war?" The way you look is just hypocrisy. ”

"Because...... How could I have left Jack. Yue Chen picked up Jack, looked at Helena and said, "Because, Jack is my [daughter], I don't want her to fight, and I don't want her to fight, too...... Definitely don't want to abandon her. ”

"Even if I'm really not qualified as a [mother], I still hope to be able to protect Jack'......"

Helena sighed and continued, "Yue Chen, you have to know that you are not protecting you like this...... Jack is a Servant, you have to be prepared for the awareness that she will participate in the battle one day, so that your Servant can survive better and better cope with all kinds of battles, while you command your Servant to fight, and constantly defeat all enemies, this is the most important problem that a Master and Servant should face. ”

"Cheer me up, lad." Helena looked at Yue Chen and said, "Don't you want to protect Jack?" Then you have to go to her and make you stronger! ”

"Believe in Jack, and believe in yourself, this is the bond you need to build now." Helena said this, and turned away.

"If you can't even build a bond that can trust each other unconditionally, how can you protect each other? I'm a little anxious today, in short, you should think about this truth first, and then continue the special training. ”

Before leaving, Helena left such a sentence to Yue Chen, who had been silent.

"Remember, only unreserved trust is the basis for mutual protectionβ€”Yue Chen."
