Selena's study.

Selena brought the teacup and put it down in front of Li Nuo, and said jokingly:

"I didn't interject at all when you were talking to Roymin, what you two said was too foreign to me. I don't know, you still have some research in science. ”

Li Nuo smiled:

"If you go to the Tatis Empire for more than ten years, you will be familiar with these things. In fact, this knowledge is not very new to wizards. They are called differently in different groups of people.

"I'm just building a bridge between magic and science, helping Roimin find the scientific vocabulary in his mind and the corresponding nouns in the field of magic. It's like infrasound, which is actually very similar to the "shockwave" of sonic magic. ”

Li Nuo picked up the teacup, blew away the white mist, shook his head and sighed:

"I should have thought of sonic magic, but it's not too late, Roymin's words gave me a wake-up call."

"Wouldn't it be better if we just asked the wizard in the sonic realm for help?" Selena asked, sitting down in her seat.

"Not really, Selena. Strictly speaking, the spell "Shockwave" is very different from infrasound waves in the scientific field. The "Shock Wave" introduced in "The Roots of Magic" is a product of the combination of wind and rock and soil magic, which requires rock and soil as the sound source and magic gas as the propagation medium, and the vibration frequency is difficult to control, and it is difficult to achieve in seawater. ”

Li Nuo took a sip of tea and put down the teacup:

"When Roimin makes the finished product, I will be able to transform the corresponding magical creation. They will be our weapons against the Kraken. ”

Selena bent her arms and rested on the table, holding her face and smiling:

"So, your extraordinary ability is actually to transform things in the realm of science into magical creations? This is your first extraordinary ability, and you really can't figure it out to me. ”

Li Nuo was unimpressed by Selena's little secret.

From the moment the other party agreed to be his manager, Li Nuo put it on a level slightly lower than Dinas.

"Without further ado, Selena. I'll leave it to you to ask for someone from the Wizarding Law Enforcement Department. When I develop spells against the Kraken, I'll consider giving them to you, and then you'll give them to your father and eldest brother. Li Nuo said.

"Well, okay~ I will also fulfill my promise." Selena raised an eyebrow at Li Nuo:

"If you get my father's consent, it's not a trivial matter, you have to prepare well."

"I will." Li Nuo smiled and asked:

"How's that magic ship in Berkeley doing?"

"Huh? Why do you suddenly ask about this? Selena held her chin, looked at the table, and thought for half a second:

"I have the impression that the ship should be at Bald's Gate."

Selena rubbed her fingers.

The books on the shelves floated in a circle like waves, and several letters flew over from the shelves and landed in front of Li Nuo.

Li Nuo shook off the letter with the "wizard's hand" and glanced at the words on it, a vigilant light flashed in his eyes.

Berkeley's magic ship was not dismantled.

The ship was docked in the large dockyard at Bald's Gate, ready to be surrendered to its new master.

And the new owner who took over this magic ship is the "Pure Light Court".

Another piece of information on the letter sounded the alarm bell in Li Nuo's mind.

That night, after Leno and Dinas teleported away, the magic ship was shrouded in the fog of the Lost Sea before waiting for the fleet to pick them up.

Li Nuo's face changed slightly, revealing a hint of solemnity.

"What's wrong?" Selena tilted her head and asked:

"Why do you have that expression?"

Li Nuo raised his hand and rubbed his chin:

"Things seem to be a bit troublesome. After we teleported away from the magic ship that day, the Lost Sea Fog in that sea was artificially triggered. The magic ship and the people on board stayed in the fog of the Lost Sea for a full ten hours, and then waited until the fog cleared and joined the fleet that had come to meet them. ”

"Well, yes. There is indeed such a thing. Selena read the text of the letter:

"The ship was guarded by Paredes, the Grand Arbitrator of the Pure Light Court, and no one was injured or missing in the Lost Sea Mist. Subsequent investigation, possibly a passing ship or something, triggered the Lost Sea Fog. Why do you care about this? ”

Li Nuo put the letter back in the envelope, looked at Selena's beautiful face and thought for a while, and then said:

"Eh, Selena, do you remember when I found you and wanted to teleport with you to the Suman Islands?"

"Uh-huh." Selena shook her head up and down.

Li Nuo looked around, used deconstruction to inspect the inside and outside of the study, and after confirming that there was nothing that shouldn't exist, he lowered his voice and said:

"That magic ship has the blood and will of the Metal Ancestral Dragon."

“！！” Selena sat up straight all of a sudden, her eyes widened, and she was stunned:

"Are you sure?!"

"Of course. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been in a hurry to get out of there. Li Nuo tapped the envelope with his fingertips:

"I'm sure the Metal Ancestral Dragon had some sort of collaboration with Paredes, right on the magic ship, just when the fog of the Lost Sea shrouded the seas. There may be a conspiracy between the Metal Ancestral Dragon and the Pure Light Court that is not known to outsiders. ”

Li Nuo sighed lightly:

"In retrospect. When Paredes faced Berkeley's dream picture, he pointed to the dragon's claw pattern in the picture and talked eloquently, which had a deep meaning. He, and the Pure Light Court behind him, had long been prepared for the arrival of the Metal Ancestral Dragon. ”

Selena scratched the top of her head, puzzled:

"How did you find the Metal Ancestral Dragon? I'm not doubting your rhetoric, I fully believe what you say. I just thought it was strange why so many wizards of the Nine Rings and Ten Rings who were present at the time didn't notice the anomaly of the magic ship... I was the same, I didn't notice anything wrong with the magic ship. ”

Li Nuo shook his head slightly:

"I don't have a definite answer, but I suspect that it may have something to do with Ascend to the Fortress. The wizard's magical attainments can be said to all come from the "promotion fortress". The dragons can do something to the "Ascend Fortress" so that the wizards can't find their traces. ”

"So what do we do now?" Selena frowned slightly and asked:

"Do you need to find a way to send some deep sea wizards over to determine the condition of that magic ship?"

"Nope." Li Nuo shook his hand:

"Let's do our own thing. Leaving the land of strife as soon as possible is what we should do now. Besides, even if we found something unusual about the magic ship, we wouldn't be able to do anything.

"That metal progenitor dragon is very cunning, and will definitely move on to other metal creations as soon as we expose him.

"Rather than that, let it stay on the magic ship, so we know where to find it when we find a countermeasure in the future. Of course, it is not ruled out that it has now left the magic ship. ”

Selena thought for a moment:

"Well, you're right."

Li Nuo stood up and prepared to leave:

"Roymin's affairs are left to you. I'll go first. Today's Darktide Spy hasn't been caught yet. ”

"Okay~ You go. I prepared the venue and everything Roymin needed, and I told you in a letter right away. Selena sent Leno to the door.

It's also quite strange to say, since Li Nuo cleaned up the pirates for half a month with high intensity, there have been a lot fewer looting incidents at sea, and there are no longer thousands of pirate teams.

This went on for about seven or eight days, and it still didn't change.

Li Nuo had to suspect that the Kraken Kingdom was holding back some big moves.

Therefore, he worked extremely hard to find out the spy work today, and threw the corpses of four Dark Tide spies to Rape Chanal in one go.

What caught Li Nuo's attention was that the four Dark Tide spies were as if they had been abandoned by the upline, and they had not received any instructions in the last four days, and they had never made contact with the upline.

The last time they received an order, there were only two words "on standby".

"Looks like we're about to start a phase shift."

Li Nuo anticipated this change and chose to quietly wait for the Kraken Kingdom's latest raiding plan.

No matter how the Kraken will loot the sacrifices and the goods in the future, Li Nuo has a way to deal with it.

It would be great if we could get the sonic and laser weapons made by Roimin before then.

…

Time is spent in waiting and cultivating.

A week later, the night.

Li Nuo is cultivating at the bottom of the sea near the No. 1 Snow Mountain Island.

He had now formed a specific cultivation law.

Every evening, he practiced the twilight breathing method without moving, using the trumpet sun in the sky as the object of breathing.

Except for the rest of the evening, he soaked in the more corrosive offshore water, practicing the "Deep Sea Scales" meditation method, the calming breathing method, and the body forging technique.

The increase in stat value due to diligence is obvious.

…

[Soul Strength] 5500

[Energy] 10/347(40+307)

[Energy Reserve] 3.5 million

[Deep Sea Scale Meditation] increased from level 10 to level 20, dexterity +7

[Dusk Breathing] increased from level 1 to level 5, vitality +4

[Calm Breathing Method] has been increased from level 1 to level 10, and there is no change in attribute value

【Vitality】14

[dexterity] 20

…

The "dexterity" of the "Deep Sea Scales" meditation method is quite impressive.

Li Nuo was already able to swim quickly in the 10-meter-deep sea, without the help of deep-sea spells.

On this basis, when he activates the Kraken form, it is as agile as a sea serpent underwater.

The snake tail in the form of a kraken is not only a "thruster" that plucks the sea water and creates thrust, but also accumulates power like a spring, and then pushes Li Nuo to accelerate forward with a bang.

If Li Nuo held a trident in his hand, and then smeared his scales with dye of the Dire Scale Siren, and his eyes were more fierce, it would be exactly the same as the real Dire Scale Siren.

Just when Li Nuo was cossing the Scales Siren underwater, the "Meow~" that represented the magic messenger receiving the letter appeared in his mind.

He returned to shore, checked the letters, and set off for the Deep Sea Branch.

Twenty minutes later, in an underground laboratory in the middle of the mountain, Li Nuo met Roymin, whose neck, wrists, and ankles were bound by magical chains.

The other party's complexion is a little better than last time, and his expression is more agile.

Obviously, being able to temporarily get out of the dark cage made her feel a little more comfortable.

On the ceiling of this underground laboratory, there is a magically created skylight that directly reflects the natural scene in the sky.

This can not only meet Roimin's needs to see the sky, but also effectively prevent the other party from using secret means to contact the alien sky.

Compared to Royimin, her crew was much worse.

Roimin is currently the only alien who can act in a complete stance.

After discovering that there were strange things in the aliens' bodies, most of the crew members were sent to the dissecting table by the wizards and became the subjects of magical experiments.

Only Roymin, as the captain of the ship, has a useful value in introducing the functions of the ship's equipment and providing knowledge of aliens.

As a result, she was temporarily spared the fate of being sent to the dissecting table.

What is more strange to the wizards is that Roimin did not reveal the expected fear of "being sent to the dissecting table".

And, when she heard that her crew had died due to "dissection", she behaved calmly and calmly, and nothing unusual happened.

The wizard asked Roimin about this, and Roimin replied simply.

She said:

"Death is no longer the end for us. It's hard for me to explain to you why. ”

Li Nuo directly told Roymin's secret in front of Selena:

"You're not afraid of death because you can teleport consciousness back, right?"

Selena looked confused, holding the full moon, and leaned back next to the craftsman's table in the underground laboratory.

Luo Yimin was recognized by Li Nuo and was slightly stunned.

With a smile on her face, she said as she retrieved the materials she needed from the shelves in the lab:

"I knew you knew a lot about us, Mr. Jarvis. From the first time I met you, I realized that you have a very deep understanding in the field of science. ”

Li Nuo made a "silence" gesture towards Selena, who was in a daze, turned to Luo Yimin and said:

"Let's change the language of communication, so that we can get rid of the lack of technical vocabulary in the language of wizards."

After a pause, Li Nuo said in the "Metal Creation Group Language" derived from deconstruction:

"I know wizards have been fooled by you, Roymin. Killing you will only trigger the "Synth Reincarnation" function unique to synths.

"You will take with you the memories of this world and return to the place where you were made. A synthetic human body made with synthesis technology will wake up in one of the cultivation rooms of the Metal Creation Group, and that is the reincarnated you. ”

"You're right, sir." Roimin put the materials in his hand on the craftsman's table and said in his native language:

"If you know that killing me won't make me really die, and that I can go back with memories related to you, will you still allow me to work for you? Aren't you afraid that I will reveal your existence to my superiors? You are so unique. Aren't you worried about being the target of the next operation of Deep Space United Mining? ”

When Roimin said this, he smiled like a hunter with sinister fangs,

She seemed to have settled on Li Nuo, and there was a hint of threat in and out of her words.

Li Nuo raised the corners of his mouth and smiled evilly.

He walked slowly towards Roimin and stopped in front of the other man.

He raised his right hand and followed a specific fingering motion, making a few quick strokes on the contour of Roymin's face.

A sight that stunned Selena appeared.

Roymin's eyes were filled with a frozen look of fear, as if he had been struck by lightning, unable to move.

"Whew..."

After a slight surge, Roimin's face opened like petals, revealing scarlet artificial muscles and blood vessels.

In her cerebellum, a silver-gray glass chip was flashing tiny dots of light.

Li Nuo poked a few times at certain parts of the artificial muscle, and then with a pinch of his fingers, he pulled out the glass chip with "heart grasping".

After pressing on the contour of Roimin's face again, the petal-shaped head closed inward, transforming back into Roimin's face.

Luo Yimin was shocked beyond measure, his body trembled violently, and he stared at the chip in Li Nuo's hand.

Li Nuo pinched the chip and squeezed it hard with his strong finger muscles.

"Click..."

The fragile and precious chip was torn apart, reduced to pieces, and then engulfed by the fire ignited by Li Nuo's fingertips, turning into charred ashes and sinking to the ground.

"No... Nope..."

Roymin's pupils locked suddenly, and he squatted down tremblingly, picking up the waste residue with residual heat on the ground.

"I destroyed the audiovisual data storage module you used to store memories." Li Nuo's calm voice sounded in Roimin's ears:

"Can you still teleport back with memories related to me now?"

"You... You... You—" Roimin fell to his knees, holding the charred scum in his hand, and raised his head tremblingly:

"How do you know so many synths secrets..."

Li Nuo helped her up, helped her tidy up the white robe on her body, and swept the waste residue in the other party's hand into the trash:

"DKP-15 Synth, this Synth Body created with Synth technology is yours.

"But the consciousness that occupies this body comes from 'Roymin'.

"If you want to completely take control of this synthetic body out of Roimin's hands, then I can help you.

"As long as you erase the existing personality data on the synthesizer's main control chip, erase the personality of 'Roy Min', and write the personality you like, then you can get rid of the personality shackles of 'Ro Yimin' and become your own master."

The synthetic's eyes fell into a trance, and Li Nuo's words didn't know that they touched her logical program, and she muttered distractedly:

"Roymin... Not me... So who am I... I'm a synth DKP-15 ... And who is Royimin..."

Selena saw that something was wrong with "Royimin"'s condition, so she leaned over to Li Nuo and quietly asked:

"What are you two muttering? How did you start communicating with her in the language of the aliens? ”

Li Nuo smiled at the curious baby Selena:

"I'm helping her solve the problem of "soul dominating body".

"You can understand it this way, this body in front of us was artificially created by aliens.

"The body itself is a void, and there is no soul in it.

"But when Roymin's soul enters it, this body becomes Roymin's body, and she is in control.

"The reason why aliens are not afraid of being killed is because their souls will enter another artificial body after the death of their existing body.

"And the other artificial body is located within the metal creation group."

The clever Selena immediately understood what Li Nuo meant:

"I see... The aliens have mastered the methods of "soul separation" and "soul transfer", so it's no wonder that they are not afraid of being sent to the dissecting table. ”

Li Nuo shook his head:

"It's not that simple, Selena, alien souls don't leave this world so easily and enter new bodies.

"The Unas language we both use lacks the right nouns to help me explain to you the science and technology that the aliens possess.

"If you learn the language of the aliens, I can explain it to you."

"Mm-hmm, when I get back to my study, I'll learn the language of the aliens." Selena raised her pale chin and pointed at the silent Roimin:

"And what's going on with this alien now? Can she still help us make props in the field of science? ”

"Give her some time, Selena." Li Nuo rubbed his chin:

"She is fighting against the soul of 'Roymin' in her body, trying to awaken her own soul. If successful, Roymin's soul will be erased, and we will gain an artificial body soul that has mastered the science of the Metal Creation Syndicate, but is not part of the Metal Creation Syndicate. ”

Selena frowned when she heard this:

"She's awakening a new soul? Is this the effect of any spell? Have you mastered the death spell of fabricating souls with your bare hands? But you didn't cast this spell just now, did you? ”

"I... Huh... How can I explain it to you. Li Nuo covered his forehead:

"Let's put it this way. In her head, there is something in herself that can create a soul. But her soul is not the same as the soul of us wizards. Our soul is the soul body, and her soul is a string of numbers and lightning energy. ”

"Numbers and lightning energy create souls?!" Selena took a breath:

"How does this work?"

"No, no, no, don't ask so much." Li Nuo shook his hand again and again:

"You'd better learn the language of the aliens first, or I won't be able to explain this to you, and I'll be getting more and more crooked."

Selena pursed her lips and glanced at the corners of her mouth:

"Okay, okay. You're a lot more knowledgeable about science than I am, and I listen to you. ”

"That's right." Li Nuo sighed and looked at the system message in his mind:

"Let's wait, I guess in an hour or two, we will have a loyal and reliable partner."

"Uh-huh." Selena nodded, thought for a moment and asked:

"Wait, Jarvis, if I'm not mistaken, we'll see a new soul in this body later, right?"

"Yes." Li Nuo responded.

"What if she gets dragged for an autopsy? Shall we not witness her death? Selena asked.

Li Nuo shook his finger:

"That's not a problem. I have a way. ”

"Ao, then I won't worry about it." Selena found a stool and sat down, holding her chin to look at Roimin, who was trembling slightly.

Li Nuo threw a deconstruction technique at the synth in front of him, refreshing the other party's panel information.

On the "Status Bar" of the panel information, a new effect has been added:

Name: Personality reset

Type: Synthetic human thinking data technology

【Time Remaining】1 hour 33 minutes

【Trigger Steps】

1. Follow a specific gesture to open the synthetist's face cover.

2. By pressing the pressure button inside the artificial muscle, the synthesized mind reset function is activated.

3. Close the synth's face cover.

【Effect Description】

When the Personality Reset function is enabled, the existing personality "Roy Min" will be forcibly erased, and a new master personality will be formed according to external instructions.

You have given DKP-15 a mind to the synth through the "Psychic Beacon", which provides a new master personality writing scheme for the synthesizer's main control chip.

It is expected that after 1 hour and 33 minutes, Synth DKP-15 will have a new main personality.
