After leaving the school gate and walking a little more remotely, Wu Jian and Ioneira entered the station square in Liverpool, and the first thing that caught their eye was a huge spaceship made of steel.

"Oh! Isn't this a French-made battleship - Daedalus!? What are the French thinking about using it for an exhibition!? Ionella exclaimed.

"Of course, it's a show of national strength, and in non-war periods, this is a very powerful bargaining chip." Wu Jian explained.

But Ionella looked at Wu Jian with very disappointed eyes and said, "Can't you say it's romantic?" It's a date! ”

Wu Jian shrugged his shoulders and said he had nothing to say. They have all come to visit the warship, how can there be any romance at all?

And Ionella also showed an excited expression in a blink of an eye, as if she was about to preach, and said, "Do you know the Tao? This is an automaton too! ”

"Really?" Wu Jian looked up at the huge battleship, and said a little speechlessly: "I've seen all kinds of puppets here, even dogs can be said to be automatic dolls, this is normal." ”

"Ah~~~" Ionella looked crazy, pointed at Wu Jian and said, "How did you get into this academy?" You didn't figure it out at all, it's not called an automaton because it's human! In the final analysis, this is just a noun for a class of things, because the first one to make it was a human form, and then the maker named it this way to pass it down! The current automaton is an artifact equipped with Eve's Heart, which allows magicians to perform powerful magic with unprecedented speed and precision through a built-in magic circuit! This ship can be called an automaton. That's because it fits the characteristics of an automaton, got it!? ”

Wu Jian nodded, showing that he was taught, and Ionella retracted her gaze with satisfaction and threw herself at the huge battleship again.

Next, Wu Jian and Ionella continued to shop, but basically Ionella was in charge.

"Oh~~~ This Eve's heart is very precise!"

"Look, isn't this puppet beautiful!?"

"Oh~~~"

That's the case, Wu Jian basically didn't have room to interject along the way (although he also learned Karakuri magic-related. But compared to a professional genius girl. That's no topic). At first, Ionella would talk to Wu Jian about something she wanted to know about Wu Jian, but after coming to the various shops in the square where she was transformed into a puppet store, she was attracted by the masterpieces of various puppet masters.

Suddenly, Ionella, who was lying on the glass window of someone else's shop, beckoned to Wu Jian. After noticing Wu Jian's approach, he stretched out his white and tender little hand backwards: "Give me money." ”

Wu Jian directly put his hand on it. said: "You're really welcome." What do you want to do with the money? ”

Ionella shook her hand and put it on the back of Wu Jian's hand, revealing her soft palm. He said, "Of course I bought it, and if I can analyze it well, it will definitely be useful for my research!" ”

Wu Jian glanced at the price and gasped, it was worthy of making Ionella look at it, it was really not an ordinary product (price), and it was really a shame that she could unceremoniously ask for money from the man she had just met.

"Hurry up~~~," Ionella said in a sweet voice.

"If it's good for research, why don't you just use your research funds to buy it?"

"Research funding?" Ionella craned her neck.

"Hey, you're not, aren't you? How did you come up with the materials you used in your research? ”

"The school prepared it for me, and if I say it, they will send me what I am afraid of needing."

"I see, I see. If you really want that, how about going in and talking to the maker? You're also a well-known puppet maker, so I'm sure I'd love to talk to you. ”

"Huh!? Is that okay? That's everyone's skill, right? ”

"If you can figure it out just by letting you take it apart a few times, I think the other party will be happy to communicate with you."

Looking at Ionella like this, if you really communicate with people, eighty percent of them will be turned over by others. But it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if this level of skill is known by others. If Ionella can grow, Wu Jian is also happy to see it.

Listening to Wu Jian's words, Ionella also plucked up her courage, but she froze after putting her hands into fists in front of her chest. Turning his head mechanically, he asked Wu Jian, "How do you say it?" Which one is the maker? ”

Hey, hey

Wu Jian pressed her forehead to see how skillfully she could talk to herself, she originally thought she was a genius girl with both IQ and EQ, but now what is going on with this girl who is afraid of life?

"Forget it, I'll go with you and ask."

Wu Jian was about to walk into the store, but Ionella grabbed the corner of his clothes.

"Huh? What's wrong? ”

"Still don't want it," Ionella grimaced, as if she had thought of something bad.

It seems that this is why she subconsciously refuses to communicate with the same puppet maker.

Wu Jian planned to investigate deeply, so he asked, "What is it for?" ”

Ionella silently walked to the corner next to the shop, her back against the wall. After Wu Jian came over, he hesitated for a long time, and finally said as if he wanted to vent: "In fact, my research is often ridiculed by my peers."

Well, Wu Jian nodded silently.

"Classmate Wu Jian, do you know the principle of disharmony of Dao Demon activity?"

Wu Jian nodded.

"If you ask, whoever it is, they will say that there is no way to deal with it, and there are no two magic spells that coexist in a single individual at the same time - the direct intervention with magic will be easily offset by the other party's magic. This is because the magic that is activated from within itself has priority over the magic that invades from the outside. My research is aimed at solving this dilemma, hoping to make the dispute disappear and hopefully prevent the outbreak of war. In order to disarm the opponent - I hope to make the opponent lose combat power without fighting or killing. ”

Wu Jian didn't nod this time, but silently closed his eyes.

It's no wonder that they will be ridiculed, regardless of the difficulties, how can this prevent war? Moreover, if her research is successful, it will be a big killer. Not to mention preventing war, as soon as a certain country gets this result, I am afraid that war will break out immediately. It's no wonder that Japan wants to get information on Ionella's research.

"You idiot?"

Huh?

Originally, it had already created a sad atmosphere, but Wu Jian suddenly scolded. Ionella froze there, not knowing how to react.

"So that the war can be eliminated? You're saying that there were no wars hundreds of years ago, right? ”

"Eh, that"

"The reason why war broke out in humanity. The simplest way to put it is because of the uneven resources. If you want to eliminate the war, show me how to farm! ”

Eh~~~

Ionella had never heard such a statement, and was speechless for a moment.

"I've never done anything like farming."

actually responded seriously, this guy has become too cute, right?

Wu Jian couldn't help but hug her.

"Huh!? Eh~~~!? ”

Ionella was in complete disarray. What did the previous words come to the conclusion that she was going to be hugged by Wu Jian?

"It's easy to buy it for you. But "

Ionella had intended to break free. But when I heard this, I stopped and listened quietly.

"It's not a clever thing, and you don't really want it that much. Case. I'll introduce you to someone. ”

"Who?"

"Tony, you know the truth, right?"

"Iron Demon King!?" Ionella slammed Wu Jian and said excitedly, "I know him!" Although I have not seen his dolls, I have seen his papers. Not only is he a magician, but he's also an excellent puppet maker, and I've always wanted to talk to him! ”

didn't expect him to have a paper that could make Ionella so fanatical, but Wu Jian was unexpected.

Scratching his cheeks, Wu Jian said: "It's him, I'll let you go and study with him for a while, what do you think?" ”

"I do!" Ionella replied without even thinking about it, but soon became confused: "You know him?" ”

"That's right, and presumably he wouldn't refuse to teach some basic things."

A powerful reincarnation of technology, his so-called foundation is far more advanced than this world, enough for Ionella to learn for a while.

"And where is he now!?"

"Don't forget now, we're still dating."

"Yes, yes! Well, let's go on a date now! ”

Ionella hugged Wu Jian's arm and pointed ahead with a happy expression.

But, the pleasure was only temporary, when a squad of soldiers found Ionella.

While everyone wondered why there were soldiers and not police, Ionella was able to confront them with ease.

"You are"

"Professor Arianti, His Royal Highness the Prince, please."

Ionella seemed excited, and immediately agreed. On the way to pull Wu Jian over, she introduced who the so-called prince was. It was the Black Prince of the British Empire, and a supporter of hers - obviously not much invested, but it was part of her naivety that Ionella was naïve about how important it was to have someone who identified with her research at a time when everyone was laughing at her.

Coming to a two-storey tavern, there was no one around except for the soldiers, and it seemed that the venue was cleared.

"How bold you are to make the great king wait so long! Professor Elianti! ”

As soon as he entered, he saw a man with black hair and black clothes with his arms outstretched.

"King? Aren't you a prince? And I didn't agree with you to meet," Ionella wondered, why did she say she was late?

"Hmph, anyway, you're the goddess who made me king!"

"Ha" Ionella didn't understand what was going on at all, and answered perfunctorily. looked at the prince, the green-haired girl beside Edmond.

The green-haired girl bears some resemblance to Ionella, but she is not Ionella's sister, but a doll made by Ionella based on herself. It's not a taboo doll, but it's also an excellent doll with its own personality and a human-like mind. But her current appearance was strange, and instead of saying anything, Ionella was staring blankly ahead, not focusing her gaze.

"What's wrong with Ivan?" Ionella asked, tilting her head.

"Oh, you said her." Edmond smiled proudly, looked at the green-haired puppet and said, "Very good, even beyond my imagination!" ”

"Say so!" Ionella's eyes lit up as well. Excitedly, he said, "The research has been successful!" ”

Looks like. It seems that Edmond's side has some decisive technique that helped Ionella's research succeed.

But Ionella didn't rejoice for long, for she also noticed the green-haired girl's sluggish appearance.

"What's wrong with Ivan?"

Could it be that the study was not completely successful, and there was a problem with the young girl?

Ionella took a step forward. I want to go over and check on the girl's condition.

"Oh? That's not going to work. ”

Edmond blocked Ionella's way. A sneering smile hung on the corner of his mouth.

"What did you do to Ivan?"

Ionella also noticed that something was wrong. The main thing is the change in Edmond's attitude.

"It took me a lot of work. After all, if you only find an ordinary puppeteer, you won't even be able to do the analysis. But I didn't do anything, just lifted her restrictions. That is, to remove the meaningless shackles you have designed - the so-called feelings. Finally, last night, she became obedient. Edmond smirked.

"Give Evan back! Tell me about it, Ladian! ”

Ionella turned to a man next to her, who was her friend and professor at the Academy.

"Io, listen to Your Highness."

The professor walked over to Ionella, a gentle smile that gave Ionella a creepy feeling. As he reached out to her, Ionella was so frightened that she grabbed a chair next to her and smashed it on his head without even thinking about it.

This also frightened Wu Jian, he didn't expect Ionella to be so strong.

Don't look at Ionella nestled in the research room all day, in fact, her physical ability is very strong. The chair smashed into Radian's head, cracking with it, and Radian's skin cracking with it, revealing the metal skeleton inside.

"Automata!?"

Ionella cried out in horror, Radian was her best friend, and the two often discussed together, she had never heard of an automaton with enough knowledge to be a professor.

"That's right, because he's so uncooperative that he doesn't just want to tell Edward. Rutherford, who actually wanted to take Evangelin away from me, made him a doll. ”

Woo

The thought of the person in front of her being made into a puppet made of life made Ionella want to vomit, but she still glared at Edmond stubbornly: "Evan is my puppet." ”

"But now it's mine!" Edmond hugged the unresponsive Evangeline and stretched out his other hand: "Io, come with me too, I will love you well." ”

"Nope! I'm going to take Evan and fix her! ”

Edmond shook his head with a silent smile, and with a gesture, Radian walked towards Ionella. Even though it's just a very ordinary doll, it's no problem to catch Ionella. And it's also her friend (once), which is obviously a blow to her.

As Ionella froze in place, a kick reached out from her side and kicked Radian. After that, he flew back upside down with a fierce end, and when he was in mid-air, his body was scattered because he couldn't bear the force, and internal parts were scattered all over the ground.

"Ladian!"

Knowing that he was dead, Ionella couldn't help but let out a scream.

After that, Ionella felt that someone was hugging her shoulder, and when she looked up, Wu Jian just said: "Let him go, the soul is trapped in that body, it is better to die completely." ”

"Whew"

Ionella buried her head in Wu Jian's arms.

"Who are you?"

Edmond had already noticed Wu Jian, but he was only looking at Wu Jian at this time.

"If you want to know the way, check it yourself, now the important thing is what you can do, and what I can do."

Wu Jian let go of Ionella and comforted her in a soft voice, asking her to take a look at the side first.

"That's right" Edmond waved his hand, and the soldiers inside the tavern immediately pointed their guns at Wu Jian, and the soldiers outside also got the order to block all possible exits.

scold

Wu Jian chuckled lightly and slowly stretched out his right hand, making a gesture to grab Edmond's neck.

Edmond sneered, and the magic quietly entered Evangelin's body, and a guy without a puppet dared to be arrogant in front of him?

Suddenly, Edmond felt as if something was entangled around his neck, and before he could react, Wu Jian was close in front of him, and his outstretched hand grabbed his neck.

(What a situation!) ）

Edmond was blinded all at once, what the hell just happened!? Why will he be grabbed by Wu Jian's neck?

After Wu Jian grabbed Edmond, the soldiers were stunned for three seconds, and then they re-aimed their guns at Wu Jian. But they did not dare to act rashly, for fear of hurting Edmond.

Wu Jian sneered and said, "It's really bad, shouldn't the soldiers who are messing with you be some miscellaneous soldiers?" ”

Of course, how could a prince who was once rebuked and unpopular by the British Emperor have elite soldiers? But he doesn't need any soldiers, as long as Evangeline is in hand, it is equivalent to thousands of troops. (To be continued......)
