I rely on myself

Chapter 279 Contempt
After a long while, Charlotte suddenly asked, as if instinctively: "Why...? Why do you want to do this..."

"Why would you ask such a stupid question? Since you chose to study in this college, could there be any other motives?" Felix said simply and clearly without hesitation.

"It's to become the Demon King. I want to be the king of the magic world."

Charlotte felt as if she was stabbed in the heart. The severe pain in her heart even made her feel unable to breathe.

Felix smiled and spoke gently with his usual smile.

"The night party is a ruthless competition for survival. Only those who can completely eliminate all those who get in the way can gain everything. That's your argument, right?"

"........."

"I like what you said because I feel the same way. But..." Felix suddenly showed a cold look. "There is one thing about you that I can't stand - that is your naivety."

After saying this, he gently raised his hand towards the automaton beside him, releasing all the magic power from his palm and injecting it into it.

Upon receiving the magic power, the magic circuit in the puppet's body is instantly activated, converting the received magic power into some kind of physical phenomenon.

An invisible force gathered and then spread out, and in the next moment, a beam of light burst out from the sword in the puppet's hand. It was a reflection, a flash of water.

The violent water flow came like an arrow, turning into a sharp spear and shooting straight at Charlotte's forehead.

There is no doubt that if hit, Charlotte's life will end. As Charlotte's automaton, Sigmont directly stood in front of the water and wanted to use his body to block the attack.

However, without the magical support of the puppet master, even an automatic puppet like Sigmont would not be able to block such an attack and would be pierced instantly. At this time, an accident happened.

"Qiang!"

With the sound of metal collision, the water flow that turned into a sharp spear was instantly broken up into splashes all over the sky, and the golden spear reflected the light like the sun.

The one who blocked the attack was none other than Karna. Seeing Charlotte not taking any action at all in the face of the attack, Karna felt unbearable and took immediate action, instantly dispersing the oncoming water flow.

Karna glanced at Charlotte, who was immersed in pain and had not come to her senses in this situation.

"Is he trapped in self-blame because he caused trouble for others? Should I say that he is really kind-hearted?"

This thought flashed through Karna's mind. Although the current situation was troublesome, it was not unpleasant. This was a thought that came from the bottom of his heart.

After all, being able to worry about others is undoubtedly a beautiful thing.

As a hero of charity, Karna firmly believes that "every human being has his own potential, and different flowers will bloom from it", so he is able to treat most people equally.

As for those who have good qualities, such as Charlotte, Karna still admires them very much, so he doesn't mind helping them.

Sigmont flapped his wings and flew to Karna and said, "Thank you. Although it is very rude, could you please lend us a hand?" When making his request, Sigmont's tone clearly revealed shame. After all, after someone helped to block an attack, he troubled them to continue helping, which was undoubtedly a very bad behavior.

But Sigmont took a look at Charlotte who had not yet recovered, and knew that he would not be able to fight against the opponent unless his puppeteer recovered.

In order to protect Charlotte, Sigmund made such a shameless request.

But before Karna could answer, Felix on the opposite side spoke up, unwilling to be left out.

"Hey, isn't it a bit too much to leave me aside and chat by yourself? I'm still here."

When he said this, Felix's face was smiling as always, but now it looked a little colder, as if he was looking at a dead person.

When Sigmont and Karna heard this, their attention was instantly drawn.

"And you don't think you can defeat me by asking another puppet to help you, that's ridiculous." Felix focused his attention on Karna. "I was originally planning to let you go, but I didn't expect you to take the initiative to get involved."

Felix said this in a very sarcastic tone, not taking Karna seriously at all, as if he was just a small fry who would be dealt with later.

This is a very unusual thing. Karna is a special Heroic Spirit Doll and also an Automaton of Lin Yuan, who is also one of the thirteen. Of course, he has fought in this academy. Even if not all of them, he has shown amazing combat power.

Logically speaking, Felix should have been wary of Karna's joining, but at this moment he was not. Instead, he looked very relaxed.

However, Sigmont did not have any problem with Felix's appearance. It was more like most people in the world would not have any problem with it.

The reason is very simple, that is because Karna's puppet master Lin Yuan is not here.

Although automatic puppets have strong combat capabilities, and even some high-end puppets can exert combat capabilities comparable to that of a legion, this is all under one premise, that is, they have the control and support of puppet masters.

No matter what kind of automaton it is, in order to exert its own abilities, it cannot do without one thing, that is magic power, and the automaton itself cannot generate magic power on its own, which also makes the automaton unable to move without the control of the puppeteer.

Only forbidden puppets like Sigmont, which are made of biological materials, have a certain amount of magic power in their bodies, thus having higher self-discipline, but that's all. If they want to fight, they still need the puppeteer's magic power to inject and control them.

Therefore, in the absence of Hayashi Yuan, the puppeteer, it is natural that Felix does not take Karna seriously.

Karna did not show any emotion due to Felix's contemptuous attitude, but replied in his usual cold tone.

"No, you have no intention of letting me go, otherwise you wouldn't have disclosed your plan to me directly, because in your opinion it would be better to get rid of me as well."

"Ah, yes, that's right." Felix raised his eyebrows and then admitted it directly.

"After all, my goal is to become the Demon King, so the Qing man who is also one of the thirteen is of course one of my opponents. Now that I have a chance to weaken his strength, I will certainly not let him go so easily."
