Arknights, Suika's Messenger Journey

Hearing his words, an ordinary-looking Victorian nodded and walked towards the passage. His appearance changed with every step, and there was no way to know what his true appearance was.

Fortunately, Suika only had her last encounter with Rhodes Island after arriving in Lontinium, so it took the shapeshifter a long time to track down the Shihuai family.

But when the shapeshifters followed the clues and found the Shihuaiya clan, the Shihuaiya clan had all moved to the Duke of Kaster's territory.

The shapeshifter did not continue to investigate, but reported the news to Tracy.

Due to some previous agreements, people from the royal court could not easily enter and leave the Duke of Caister's territory, and he had more important tasks that required shapeshifters, so he put this matter behind him.

On the other side, Suixiang and the other two finally returned to the foot of Rhodes Island around four o'clock in the afternoon.

Considering the situation of Viscount Scott in the car and the fact that he had been invaded by the Blood Demon Lord, the vehicle did not enter the ship.

Instead, Logos brought several magic masters nearby to conduct magic inspections on everything in the vehicle, including the three people.

Of course, when everyone saw the car full of dolls, their expressions looked a little strange.

Because the incident happened suddenly, Scout did not explain the details of the previous battle clearly, so even Kal'tsit, who came to help out of worry, did not know that these seemingly beautiful dolls were the biggest contributors to stopping the Blood Demon Lord.

"Why did you buy so many dolls? Some of them have been repaired...

What the hell is this! "

Logos was about to pick up the repaired doll when suddenly all the dolls stood up and formed a square formation behind Suika, to the horror of the others.

"They..." After being shocked, Logos squatted down and looked at the dolls curiously.

"They are called Shanghai Dolls. I asked a friend to get them for a batch of high-quality dolls." Suixiang answered, pointing to her nose.

Chapter 178: The Magical Use of Dolls

"It's not a machine, it's a spell!

But what about the energy supply, the spell patterns, and the spell incantations?"

As the top magic master in Rhodes Island, Logos picked up a puppet and began to study it.

"Be more polite. They are all ladies. If you openly look under their skirts, they will be unhappy."

Seeing Logos holding up the doll to check if the spell was under the skirt, Suika spoke up to remind him.

Logos put the doll down and watched the other party run back to the team holding her skirt before turning around and asking

"They all have their own consciousness? How do they do that?"

Logos' first thought was to stuff souls into them, but he only felt positive emotions such as curiosity and happiness from these dolls.

There was absolutely no fear or terror of having a living soul extracted and stuffed into a doll.

If this is not the option, could it be an artificial soul?

When this thought came into Logos' mind, he shook his head and dismissed it.

Even in the Sarkaz witchcraft that has been passed down for thousands of years, there are various studies and explorations of the soul.

But it is almost all about usage. It’s not that no one has tried to “manufacture” it, but the results are mostly full of defects, and the cost is disproportionate to the return.

Like these little guys in front of him who can run, jump and have self-awareness... He looked at Suixiang, her clones were very similar to these dolls.

"Wow, so cute!" At this moment, Amiya's voice came from the side.

There were several dolls around her, dancing happily up and down, and she was holding one in her hand and smiling happily.

Kelsey came over after dealing with Viscount Scott's body.

"That guy's blood and essence have been almost drained out. It was indeed the work of the Lord of the Royal Court.

However, it is a good thing that you were able to return safely from his hands.

Can you tell me how you escaped from that person's pursuit? "

Logos, who was about to continue asking questions about the doll, stopped and looked at the three people.

Although he didn't want to admit it, the Lord of the Royal Court was of the same level as his mother.

Even he could not guarantee that he could retreat safely after meeting the enemy, but they only lost an insignificant Viscount Scott and ran back safely.

Logos is also curious about how they did it.

After Kal'tsit finished speaking, Scout and Kal'sil looked at Suika and the puppets beside her.

Suika pointed at the doll girls and said

"Let me introduce these little guys to you.

I originally only wanted one or two, but my friend gave me a whole bunch.

They are called Shanghai Dolls.

She is good at housekeeping, cleaning, washing clothes and cooking. She can do everything.

He also knows a little bit of force and can protect others.

When there are multiple puppets gathered together, they can also use a trapping barrier to trap the target in the middle, giving the protected person a chance to evacuate.

We were able to escape thanks to this ability of the puppets."

After hearing what Suika said, Logos and Pith raised their hands and asked in unison

"Can you let me see that barrier?"

"Of course! Girls, activate the rose barrier!"

In front of everyone, the world once again turned into a mirror and pulled the two into the barrier.

Ten minutes later the barrier disappeared. The two looked around and shook their heads at each other in frustration.

"How is it?" Kal'tsit asked.

"It's a very powerful barrier. Ms. Pith and I used dozens of large-scale spells in it... and now it seems that it has no effect on the surrounding area." Logos replied.

"If it is a ban of this strength, it is indeed possible to trap the Lord of the Royal Court in place." Pith also replied in agreement.

"Huh? What is this!" Logos saw Suika handing over a stone tablet the size of a baby's palm made of Originium.

"Nothing, I just happened to hear you mention that blood demon, and thought of something interesting, so I put some pressure on him..."

Under everyone's gaze, Suixiang rubbed several stone tablets with her hands and handed them to the people nearby.

"That's enough. If there are any more, the little bat might get killed, which wouldn't be good!"

???

The people who took the stone tablets looked at Suixiang.

"It's a spell targeting luck, transferring my bad luck to the person who gets hit.

It has little effect on ordinary people. After all, no matter how unlucky an ordinary person is, his fortune cannot affect the lord of a royal court.

But it just so happens that I know some ways to reduce my luck..."

Suixiang pointed to the stone tablets

"A considerable amount of good luck is sealed in these stone tablets.

When I give you the stone tablet, it is like sharing my luck with you.

Without good luck, I will naturally be plagued by bad luck...

But it just so happens that someone has been cursed by me, and he will bear my bad luck during this period..."

After hearing what Suixiang said, everyone showed a wicked smile.

Although luck transfer sounds a bit absurd, it is not impossible in principle. Moreover, magic has developed by leaps and bounds over the past thousands of years. In addition, the Sarkaz themselves know many strange spells, so there is no doubt about Suika's words.

"By the way, you said these puppets have a certain fighting ability? How do they fight?"

Looking at the group of people who were laughing "hehehe", like a gathering of Soul Hall elders, Amiya poked her little head out in confusion and looked at Suixiang while holding a doll.

"You can let her go and then shout 'Battle mode activated!'" Suika raised her eyebrows. Although this was not a necessary procedure, it would be very interesting to hear the donkey...the rabbit shout it out.

Amiya carefully let go of her hands, and when she saw that the doll did not fall but was floating in the air, she breathed a sigh of relief, and then she whispered

"Battle mode, activate..."

"Can you speak louder? Haven't you eaten yet?" Suika said rudely.

"Battle mode, activate!" Amiya shouted with a flushed face.

After she finished shouting, the puppet waved her hand, and a lance appeared in her hand.

Although it looks cool, this 30-centimeter pocket lance does not look like it can be used in combat.

Amiya looked at Suika, as if asking what to do next.

Suixiang looked around and pointed to a big tree a hundred meters away and said

"Try pointing at the tree and saying 'Knights, charge!'"

Amiya followed Suika's instructions and pointed at the trees in the distance.

"Knight, charge!"

The next second, the sharp sound of wind ripping through the air reached everyone's eardrums, and the moment Amiya finished speaking, the puppet with the lance directly smashed a huge hole in the tree...

Chapter 179 The next target, Xista!

Everyone looked at Suika in surprise.

"Is this the little bit of force you mentioned?" Logos felt that he probably would not believe anything that came out of this kid's mouth.

"if not?

Don't be fooled by their fast speed. They can only move in a straight line, and their path is not easy to judge.

Hey, you see, they are not happy when I tell the truth..."

Suika pointed to her feet.

I saw a puppet standing there with its hands on its hips, kicking Suika's calves fiercely. The "bang bang bang" sound was very crisp and loud.

It was obvious that she was very dissatisfied with Suixiang's belittling of her group's fighting ability.

Suika reached out and picked her up, and found that there were many signs of repair on her body. She already knew the details of the battle, so she naturally knew that this was one of the two dolls torn to pieces by the Blood Demon Lord last night.

Fortunately, after discovering that there was no fluid in their bodies, Ducare took the blood back and had the other puppets rescue her and repair her on the spot.

Otherwise, it would be a huge loss for the puppet army to lose two of them in the first battle.

"Okay, okay, I'm sorry, I was wrong. You guys are very strong!" Considering that the other party was the hero who helped her group successfully escape from Ducare, Suixiang decisively gave in.

Seeing Suika admit her mistake, the puppet flew aside with her hands on her hips.

"That's right, even though they have a bit of a temper, they have generally good personalities and love cleanliness. They're versatile housekeepers and are perfect for taking care of children!

But there are too many of them, and I can't bring them all with me. I brought them here this time in the hope of keeping them in Rhodes Island.

It can be considered as a small gift from me to Rhodes Island."

The little doll did not go far, but looked around secretly from the side. After hearing Suika say good things about it, it flew back to the team with satisfaction.

"Well... but I need..." Kal'tsit was indeed interested in this strange thing. If she had not seen the fighting ability of these little guys, she would be happy to accept it. But after seeing the terrifying power of these special "magic props" with "life", she hesitated.

"Suika-sister, are you really willing to leave them in Rhodes Island? Really?"

Before Kal'tsit could finish her words, Amiya rushed to Suika and held her hand, with stars in her eyes.

As a girl, how could I not like something as delicate and beautiful as Shanghai dolls?

At this time, several female operators also gathered around and asked what procedures they needed to follow if they wanted to receive a Shanghai doll.

Seeing everyone so excited, Kal'tsit opened her mouth, but the words stuck in her throat didn't come out.

As an old lynx of unknown age, she didn't feel anything about this little thing. Instead, because it was too mysterious, she was naturally wary.

But before she could speak, PITH said

“The kids love it, don’t they?

She's also a Rhodes Island Operator recognized by you and me. Even if she has some secrets of her own, as long as they don't harm Rhodes Island, there's nothing wrong with being relaxed and accepting these things you don't understand."

Kal'tsit ultimately kept her own opinion.

After all, it has been a long time since I saw Amiya smile so happily since that incident.

Even if she had doubts about this, she would not express them now and spoil everyone's interest. She just planned to arrange people to keep an eye on these dolls later to see what they were trying to do.

On the other side, when Suika and Amiya were explaining the function of the dolls, a pair of hands pressed on their shoulders.
