I rely on myself

Chapter 337: The Secret of "Summoning Heroic Spirits"

No one on the bridge could answer Edmund's doubts at this time. After all, apart from him, there was only General Guredan and his puppet beside him, and no one else.

Although General Guredan was very familiar with the use of mechanical magic, it did not mean that he had some advanced knowledge of mechanical magic, so naturally he could not explain the scene in front of him to Edmund and could only remain silent.

"……snort……"

Edmund became even angrier when he didn't get an answer, but he also knew that this was not the time for him to lose his temper, so he just snorted coldly and stopped caring about it, and started thinking about how to solve the problem.

"It seems that we can't stop those three guys with just the cheap stuff we snatched from the Expo. What should we do? They are obviously automatons too... Wait, automatons!"

Edmund's eyes lit up, and he suddenly realized something: the three beings below that were crushing the mechanical army were automatons.

Then for him who holds the "absolute royal power", there is nothing to worry about, and it is actually better this way.

Edmund showed an ecstatic smile on his face, and transmitted his magic power through some kind of connection to his goddess, that is, Ivan who was standing on the splint of Daedalus at this time.

Accepting the magic power of his master, Ivan began to sing the sad melody again. The invisible waves began to surge again and instantly enveloped the whole of Liverpool.

Just when Edmund thought that the three extremely brave automatons would be instantly under his control like the other puppets and become his weapons to conquer the world.

Arthur, Karna and Xiang Yu certainly felt the unnecessary fluctuations that were enveloping them, but they only paused for a moment after feeling it, and then they completely ignored the fluctuations and continued to crush and destroy the runaway automatic dolls without any sign of being controlled.

"How can it be!!"

Edmund was incredulous and even stood up from his seat in excitement. He walked quickly to the window to see more clearly, but that was the fact.

Faced with the invisible fluctuations of Absolute Kingship that could invade and modify Eve's heart, the three heroic spirit puppets, Arthur, Karna, and Xiang Yu, paused for only a moment, and then had no effect at all.

Edmund sensed through some connection that Ivan had indeed activated Absolute Kingship at this time, and had indeed enveloped the three automatons with the invading waves, but the situation was just as he had seen, with no effect at all.

"What exactly is going on!?"

Edmund's doubt was also shared by the other people who saw the same scene. They were also very curious about why the three heroic spirit puppets, Karna and Xiang Yu, could ignore the invasion of "Absolute Kingship".

Yio took action and asked Lin Yuan beside him directly.

"Lin Yuan, why? Why is <Absolute Kingship> invalid? What is going on?"

Before the attack, Io once asked Lin Yuan that if they wanted to defeat Edmund with the help of the automatons, the first thing they should solve was the invasion of "Absolute Kingship".

As for Io's question at that time, Lin Yuan did not directly answer it, but just smiled mysteriously and said "Just watch it" and did not say anything more. Now that he saw that the problem of "Absolute Kingship" was really solved, whether it was for the purpose of solving the rebellion or out of the curiosity of the researcher, Io could not sit still and asked Lin Yuan immediately.

This time, Lin Yuan did not hide it any more and said it directly.

"To put it simply, the effect of Absolute Kingship is to control other automata by invading and modifying Eve's heart. Now that we know the principle, it should be easy to guard against it, right?"

"Eve's heart?"

With a little hesitation, Io said the answer he had thought of, and of course he got a positive answer.

"That's right. Since we control other puppets by invading and modifying Eve's heart, then we just need to prevent them from being invaded. The magic circuit in my Heroic Spirit puppet has exactly this effect. It's called ＜Heroic Spirit Summoning＞!"

"<Summoning Heroic Spirits>!? But isn't the effect of that Magic Circuit to reproduce the legendary power of Heroic Spirits in the puppet? How could this be..."

Although Yiou did not continue, Lin Yuan already knew what she meant and explained directly: "That's of course because you don't understand the full mechanism of ＜Heroic Spirit＞. After all, like your ＜Absolute Kingship＞, ＜Heroic Spirit＞ was created by me, so of course I am the only one who knows it best."

"........."

Hearing this, Io was speechless, because it was absolutely appropriate. Just as Lin Yuan said, her understanding of "Summoning Heroic Spirits" was inferred through the information she heard, and it could not be guaranteed to be accurate.

Lin Yuan looked at the three heroic dolls, Arthur, Karna and Xiang Yu, who were killing people in the distance, and a proud smile appeared on his face.

"The effect of ＜Summoning Heroic Spirit＞ is indeed to reproduce the power of the legendary Heroic Spirit in the puppet, but what does it mean to reproduce it? It is not enough to just have the same power, weapons, or even abilities. Of course, it must be combined with their will to be considered a complete reproduction."

When Yiou heard Lin Yuan's words, her eyes widened involuntarily, because she already had a guess in her mind.

"So the effect of ＜Summoning Heroic Spirit＞ is not just to change the puppet's body, but also to change Eve's heart inside it. It can be said that once ＜Summoning Heroic Spirit＞ starts to work, its power will be directly connected to Eve's heart, injecting the will of the legendary Heroic Spirit directly into it, forming a stronger self than the forbidden puppet, which cannot be separated at all. Naturally, ＜Absolute Kingship＞ is also ineffective."

Upon hearing that this was the method to negate the effect of Absolute Kingship, Io was surprised and also felt extremely curious about this technology.

Because through Lin Yuan's statement, Io discovered that the puppets made in this way are already very close to a complete individual. In the words of the current magic world, it is "divine ingenuity."

The characteristics displayed by the Heroic Spirit Dolls now are undoubtedly very close. If they were not still mechanical bodies, Io would have considered them to be "divine machines". As for now, they are only one step away from the final stage.

Now, in the whole world, countless magicians and puppeteers are working day and night to research the "divine ingenuity". At an unknown moment, the heroic puppet that is only one step away from the "divine ingenuity" has been born in Lin Yuan's hands.
