The random characters in the dating sim world are a bit bad.

"Alright! Then please tell me your names. From now on, as your master, I can't afford not to know your names, can I?"

Hearing the voice of someone recognizing their master, Leon spoke quite naturally.

"Name? Master, neither of us has one."

The artificial intelligence answered, its voice tinged with a hint of doubt.

"No name...?"

Lyon began to ponder.

Leon is experienced when it comes to naming things. In his previous life, he had many pets with names like "Little White," "Little Black," and "Four Eyes."

However, the world I'm in now is a world of swords and magic, so a two-character name is definitely not suitable. The name I choose should be more in line with the world.

During Lyon's period of contemplation, the artificial intelligence and robots made no move, waiting quietly.

"I've got it! From now on, your name will be Lucaccion!"

Lyon proudly announced the name he had come up with for artificial intelligence.

“Lucaccio? I understand. From now on, my name will be Lucaccio.”

Upon hearing Luciano's name, the robot turned its gaze to Lyon, its red eyes filled with anticipation.

"You shall be called Iron Soldier! From now on, your duty is to ensure the safety of this warship!"

Lyon spoke to the soldier with a friendly expression.

"Master, it seems you are a vengeful human."

Luciano's voice came, and when Lyon turned around, he saw a round metal sphere floating in the air.

"Ahem. Luciano, if you don't understand, don't speak."

Lyon offered a weak explanation, which Lucaccion did not believe.

"Master, may I ask why you possess genes from both New Humans and Old Humans?"

"Well? I'm afraid it's because I'm a time traveler."

"Time travelers? The so-called parallel world theory?"

Luciano quickly found the relevant information in his database.

"Well, you could say that. But the parallel world we're in right now should be an otome game, and Master, my current role is just a background character."

Lyon explained to Lucaccion, his face full of pride.

"Master, my database only contains information about passerby characters and games; it lacks information about otome games. Does Master mean your attitude towards life when you say otome games?"

Luciano recounted what he had found.

"Lucaccio, that's not important anymore. All you need to know is that Master is a transmigrator. Master doesn't treat life like a game!"

Volume One: Chapter Nine: The Traditions of the Celestial Empire

After a brief argument with Lucaccion, Lyon arrived at the warship's control panel.

Lyon slid his finger across the control panel, adjusting the language settings.

"Oh! Luciano, I never thought it could be set to Chinese characters. From now on, all warship information will be changed to Chinese characters."

"I understand, Master. But I didn't expect Master to know Chinese characters."

"Oh my! Luciano, it's perfectly normal for me, as a Chinese, to know Chinese characters, right?"

Lyon complained, then asked a more crucial question.

"Lucasion, this warship doesn't have a name yet, does it?"

"Yes, Master."

"Alright! So from the beginning he's called Bartona. Lucasion, give me a brief overview of Bartona."

“Yes, Master. Bartona…”

The Barutona is 765 meters long, equipped with 23 main guns and 57 secondary guns, as well as an energy shield and a medical life support system, etc.

After listening to Lucaccion's story, Lyon pondered for a moment before speaking.

"Lucasion, is Barutona able to move now?"

"Master, Bartona has not been maintained for a long time and needs maintenance and energy replenishment before it can be used. It will take about three days."

"I understand. Then the maintenance of Barutona is your responsibility. I'll go with Tiebing to clear away the vines outside."

After Lyon finished speaking, he led the iron soldiers out.

After watching Lyon's figure disappear, Barutona also began his work.

"Master is really an interesting human being."

…………

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Lyon, sitting in the warship's control room, said to Lucaccion with great enthusiasm, "Lucaccion, let's go!"

"Understood, Master."

hum~

A slight tremor came, and the over 700-meter-long Bartona, under Lucasion's control, slowly moved forward.

After leaving the floating island, Barutona headed in a certain direction.

Lyon and Luciano spent the next three days discussing the direction to take.

In order to ensure that Lyon would have enough power to fight against the kingdom when necessary, they decided to find a relatively resource-rich floating island in the chaotic region, secretly occupy it, and use it as a base.

As for the small island that Lyon discovered earlier, it was used as a bargaining chip to exchange with the Viscount on the border.

The laws of Holfath stipulate that the first unclaimed resource island to be reported is eligible to become its lord.

This legal provision is one of the reasons why Lyon dared to take the risk.

Lyon is prepared to exchange the habitable island for the border viscount in exchange for the latter's ability to help him secure the baronial title.

If Lyon had reported it to the kingdom himself, he would probably have only received the title of knight or baron.

After a long and tedious wait, Lyon received good news from Luciano.

“Master, we have found a floating island that is suitable as a secret base. It has the kind of maze-like structure you mentioned.”

"Alright! Let's set off then. Luciano, and the Iron Soldiers!"

After docking the warship above the floating island, Leon piloted a small airship to the front of the maze on the floating island.

"Master, is this the labyrinth you spoke of? It truly looks incredible. It contains metals and various resources, and its structure is currently beyond our ability to analyze."

Walking through the maze, Luciano scanned various pieces of information and made his assessment, his voice filled with doubt.

“Lucasion, I don’t know the principle behind the labyrinth’s existence either. But…”

After killing a goblin with a high-energy rifle from the warship, Leon picked up the gold ore on the ground.

"However, the products inside can be continuously produced. If the kingdom knew that we had this large labyrinth, they would probably demand it directly."

"Master, based on the information I currently have about you, this situation is unlikely to occur."

“Of course, Lucaccion. Let’s leave after we clear the first floor. We can leave the rest to the robots later, right?”

Leon fired another bullet, killing the pig-headed man that appeared.

"I will entrust the secret base to the master who takes good care of it. However, I still have some questions about your suggestion to build more warships."

Lucius had no problem choosing this floating island as a base for Lyon, which was large enough, had abundant resources, and produced excellent labyrinth output.

However, it couldn't understand why Lyon would ask it to build so many warships, such as the second-class warship Barutona.

Lyon categorizes warships into Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and unclassified warships. Tier 1 is the strongest, while the Barutona he currently possesses is a Tier 2 warship. The top warships of the Kingdom of Holfat are considered by Lyon to be Tier 3 warships.

In fact, Lyon had never seen the top-tier warships of the Kingdom of Holfate, but after Lucasion said that the Bartona was currently the top warship in this world, he confirmed it.

"Bartona, Master, I'm really insecure. You know, this is the world of an otome game! The more battleships we have, the stronger and safer we are!"

As a Chinese citizen, Leon's fear of insufficient firepower was fully demonstrated at this moment.

“I understand. However, according to Master’s plan, it is currently impossible to manufacture Tier 1 warships, but Tier 2 and Tier 3 warships are not a problem.”

"No rush, Lucaccion. A first-class warship must fully combine the advantages of both magic and technology. We can learn properly once we get to the academy."

After discussing for a while, Leon and Lucaccion stopped and began their assault on the first level of the labyrinth.

The labyrinthine resources of this floating island are extremely abundant, as evidenced by the fact that you obtain gold upon completing the first level.

Of course, the rich dungeon also has powerful monsters, but thanks to the various high-energy weapons that Iron Soldier and Leon had Lucaccion make for safety, they successfully conquered it without any surprises.

"Is this the treasure chest on the first floor?"

Leon opened the treasure chest at the end of the first level.

Boom!

A bright golden light shone through, causing Lyon's gaze to tremble.

The treasure chest contains energy crystals!

Volume 1: Chapter 10 A little bit of wetting your pants is nothing.

"Master, it seems that this labyrinth is very rich in resources."

Luciano became somewhat excited as he looked at the small box of energy crystals in front of him.

The operation of Barutona requires a huge amount of energy, and its source is the energy crystal in front of us.

Before arriving, Leon led his iron soldiers to thoroughly search every corner of the building, collecting all the energy crystals inside.

Because of the existence of energy crystals, this world does not have in-depth research on things like nuclear energy.

“Lucasion, energy crystals are good, but don’t forget what I told you about nuclear energy! Once that is successfully developed, it will be even better than energy crystals.”

"Don't worry, Master. I've already mentally simulated the nuclear energy you mentioned, which will be used in the construction of the base. I've also recorded the missiles and other weapons you mentioned before."

Lyon nodded in satisfaction at Lucaccion's answer, then turned and, along with the iron soldier, began their return journey, carrying the items they had obtained from conquering the maze.

The dungeon only yields abundant rewards on the first attempt; subsequent attempts will yield sparse rewards, with a low probability of obtaining items like energy crystals.

However, this world still has energy crystal ore, and this floating island has a mineral vein.

This is one of the reasons why it was chosen as a secret base.

…………

Time passed quickly; only one day had gone by since Lyon confirmed the secret base, and it was only about two days' journey to return to the border.

This is even without Barutona operating at full capacity.

On the deck, Leon was practicing with his longsword, swinging it again and again.

They stopped only when Luciano's voice came, and turned to look.

"Master, we have spotted two unidentified airships a kilometer ahead. Based on observation, they have been identified as air pirates. Should we engage them?"

"Yoshi! Lucasion, get the Alogenz ready. Let me see the results of my efforts over the past few days."

The Arrogantz that Leon mentioned is a mech created by Lucasion. It is over ten meters tall, with a dark outer shell and powerful defense, and has a box containing weapons on its back.

Lyon fell in love with it at first sight, but it wasn't finished at that time, so he could only look at it.

"Master, do you need any assistance in your battle?"

“Lucaccio, the true charm of battle can only be experienced firsthand. Just have Barrotona aim the cannons at them.”

“I understand, stubborn master.”

Lyon showed no embarrassment at Lucaccion's criticism and accelerated in his Arogantz to the air pirates' feet!

"Hey! Are you guys ready to die?"

Once Leon arrived in front of the air pirates, he immediately started taunting them, drawing their hatred to the maximum.

"You wretched brat! I'll kill you!"
