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

Upon hearing this, Marie appeared slightly saddened and then stepped back to move on to the next person.

As Leon watched Olivia walk up, he quietly stepped back behind her, pressed his earpiece, and began to ask questions in a low voice.

"Lucasion, were there any disturbances around you during this divination?"

“Master, according to what you said, divination is similar to seeing the future in advance, but the future can change because of everything, so divination is inaccurate. Besides, Master, you don’t believe in divination.”

"Ahem. Let's keep a low profile. Although we don't believe in divination, the data still needs to be recorded."

“The data has been recorded continuously. As for the artificial intelligence within that ruin, I'd like to discuss it with you in detail once we return to the warship.” Lucaccion’s voice carried a hint of tension.

"no problem."

While Lyon and Lucaccion were talking, the results for Olivia and the others were also announced.

Olivia is prophesied to become a great figure who will pioneer the world of magic in the future.

Angelica, with the help of a benefactor, will awaken the power within her. Therefore, at this moment, her gaze towards Olivia is filled with gratitude.

Kuraris, on the other hand, became a dutiful and supportive wife.

These words immediately drew envy from Olivia and Angelica, but so far, Kuraris has been handling most of their affairs.

As for Helterutti, she received a vague answer: her dream would come true in an incredible way.

Therefore, Olivia and the others are now all looking at Leon.

"What are you..."

"Leon, go and do a divination."

"Go, Lyon."

"Let's go have our fortune told."

Hearing the urging voice in his ear, Leon walked up somewhat helplessly and placed his hand on the village chief's hand in a proper manner.

If this old guy dares to try and fool her, she'll be in big trouble! Anyway...

"Your Excellency Lyon, I've spotted a..."

Pfft!

Before the village chief could finish speaking, Lyon immediately dodged the blood spurting from the corner of his mouth.

"Damn it, we have witnesses! The village chief vomited blood on her own, I didn't do it."

Just as Leon was clarifying his situation, Olivia, Angelica, and Marie stepped forward and used healing magic. After stopping the blood that kept flowing from the corner of his mouth, they said with some helplessness, "Your village chief must have overused his magic. I'm really sorry."

In response to Olivia's apology, the arriving elves simply said that it was nothing to worry about and that they would prepare everything the village chief had promised.

Seeing this, Olivia and the others didn't say anything more and returned to their group.

late at night.

After comforting Olivia and the other two women, Leon returned to the warship's control room, feeling somewhat exhausted.

“Lucassion, what’s the deal with that ruin? The monsters we encountered in the corridors seemed like they were just created recently? And those elves, you mentioned before that you found human genetic information in them.”

As Lyon asked his question, Lucaccion controlled the light and shadow on the door of the control room to display the genetic information of the old and new humans and elves.

The three double helixes, each a different color, are labeled.

The red ones are genes related to magic that the old humans did not possess, but that the new humans and elves have.

The blue color is something that the new humans don't have, but that the old humans and elves possess.

The green area represents the genetic information shared by all three.

Looking at the simple annotations above, Lyon had roughly figured out what was going on, and a hint of admiration appeared in his eyes.

"These elves were created by the old humans using biotechnology to fight against the new humans. Their great strength, long lifespan, and rapid growth were all designed for war. It's just unexpected that the old humans ultimately didn't survive, while these elves did. It's truly a sad story. It's as if..."

"It's as if magic is a virus to the old humans, something they can't resist and can only watch helplessly as they die."

Upon hearing this, a hint of pride flashed in Luciano's red electronic eyes.

“Master, your guess is correct. After conducting data simulations, I concluded that even if the old humans used biotechnology to modify their genes, they would not be able to survive, just like biological evolution.”

"Let's not talk about that. Didn't you say you'd developed the artificial intelligence within the ruins today? How's it going? Does the data support our ideas?"

Leon didn't care about the deaths of the old humans; he only cared about what he had gained this time.

The biggest and most valuable thing in the ruins is that artificial intelligence. As for the other biological products, they are all useless and worthless. It would be better to just blow them up.

"Master, please name the artificial intelligence."

Lucasión's slightly nervous voice came through, his red electronic eyes showing the same fear as a girl confessing her love.

Lyon was completely unaware of this, and after a moment's thought, he uttered the name.

"Ilya, let's call her Ilya."

As soon as he finished speaking, a spherical object identical to Lucaccion appeared in the control room, except that its eyes were devoid of any spiritual blue light.

"Master, thank you for naming me. Now please allow me to introduce the combination of biotechnology and the Cradle of Life technology you mentioned earlier."

"The Cradle of Life can be made? I remember that required nanobots, didn't it?"

Upon hearing this, Lyon was immediately taken aback.

"Master, there hasn't been a breakthrough in nanotechnology. However, the effect I achieved by combining some biotechnologies is twice that of the original Cradle of Life. In addition, based on Lucaccion's report, I have developed a reagent for designing experiments that can enhance the development of physical abilities."

As Ilya spoke, a smartly generated project introduction screen appeared in front of Leon.

"Lucasion, grant research access to Ilya! We need it!"

"Okay, Master."

A hint of joy lingered in the mechanical, electronic sound.

Volume 2 School Life: Chapter 99 The Queen's Punishment (3/3)

The floating island of the Elf Kingdom.

As the first rays of sunlight fell in the morning, the village chief, who had been in a coma for a long time, finally opened his eyes and shakily got up from the bed.

"Village chief? Village chief! Village chief, you're finally awake! We were all so worried!"

"Are you from the Urals? Is it nighttime? Why is it so dark? Why aren't the lights on?"

Feeling the pitch-black darkness, the village chief asked in a trembling voice, his hands appearing somewhat tense.

“Village chief, it’s morning. Could it be that you’ve been unconscious for too long, so…”

"No!"

The village chief interrupted Ural, sighed weakly, and closed his eyes.

“Ural, I’ve gone blind. I’ve seen something I shouldn’t have seen.”

"How could this be, village chief? Wasn't that demon killed by those humans?"

“Ural, the demon inside the ruins was indeed killed, but an even more powerful demon… no!”

"It should be said that an abyss filled with demons has been opened!" The village chief's empty eyes radiated endless fear!

The abyss has been the enemy of the gods since ancient times!

………………

The second day back at the academy.

Lyon looked at the royal envoy who appeared before him with a hint of weariness in his eyes.

"Viscount Lyon, a banquet will be held at the palace tonight. Her Majesty the Queen wishes you to attend and report on the Saintess's guard's outing after the banquet."

"I understand, I'll be there on time tonight."

Lyon accepted the invitation from the royal messenger and briefly escorted her. Then, without stopping, he ran to Angelica to inquire about any matters requiring attention at the royal banquet.

"The royal banquet? That makes sense. Lyon, your rank is already fifth, and it probably won't be long before you're fourth. I should explain the banquet to you now. However..."

Inside the academy's office, Angelica, sitting in her chair, looked at Leon with a mischievous glint in her eyes.

"Leon, you'll still need to report to Sister Milen after you attend the banquet tonight, right?"

As Angelica spoke, she got up from the bench, closed the office curtains, and walked with cat-like steps toward the door.

"Yes, because of the matter concerning the guard team, a report needs to be submitted."

"Really? Then there's one more thing we need to do before we tell Lyon about the details of the banquet!"

click.

After locking the door, Angelica walked towards Leon, her desire in her eyes undisguised.

Boom!

Faced with the aggressive Angelica, Leon unconsciously stepped back and then sat down in the chair.

"To avoid causing trouble for Sister Milen, we need to clean it up properly..."

"Hmm, Lyon really looks energetic."

As soon as he finished speaking, Leon closed his eyes...

After a while, Angelica took deep breaths to relieve her lack of oxygen, and looked at Leon with a hint of coquettishness and anger.

I'm liking it more and more. It really is...

"Ahem. Um, Ange. You can talk now, right?"

After tidying up Angelica's somewhat disheveled clothes, Leon asked her with a hint of reminiscence, his hands naturally pulling her to his side.

“Yes. Many high-ranking people attend the royal banquets, like my father and Kula’s father.” Angelica looked at Lyon with a hint of schadenfreude.

"Leon, I really want to see how you deal with those two tonight. Hehe~"

The delicate, melodious laughter made Leon a little angry. He reached out and squeezed it, expressing his dissatisfaction.

"Really, how come you guys aren't worried at all?"

"Because Leon, you'll figure out how to handle it. Hehe~"

Faced with Angelica's words, Leon simply withdrew his hand and ruffled his short, golden hair, a smile unconsciously appearing on his face.

It feels so good to be trusted completely.

Feeling that familiar heartbeat, Angelica closed her eyes wearily, and soon heard that steady, calm breathing.

Seeing that Angelica was already asleep, Leon could only helplessly look out the window.

"She's asleep. Looks like I'll have to rely on myself today."

After speaking, he gently picked up Angelica and walked towards the room outside the academy.

After all, boys are not allowed to enter the girls' dormitories in the academy, but girls can enter the boys' dormitories.

Night falls as the dawn fades into the darkness.

Having changed into a black tuxedo, Lyon arrived at the palace gates. After verifying his identity, he was led by a servant towards the banquet hall.

"Viscount Lyon, this is the banquet hall for tonight."

Following the waiter's directions, Lyon watched as the nobles entering and leaving the hall thanked the waiter before walking in alone.

Upon entering the banquet hall, Lyon was not greeted by the elegant music he had imagined; instead, a cacophony of boastful voices filled the air.

"This kind of banquet...it really is..."

"That's really surprising, isn't it, Lyon?"

An unfamiliar voice came from Lyon's side. Turning his gaze, he saw a middle-aged man with red hair who looked very much like Kuraris.

"Are you the Earl Bernard that Kula mentioned?"

Upon hearing this, Bernard's expression immediately turned somewhat displeased. After carefully examining Leon, he hesitated and said, "Leon, you don't seem like the kind of stupid child."

"You mean... I should call you uncle?"

Lyon asked uncertainly, his eyes filled with doubt.

"Am I, a viscount, really that sought after now? Or did Kula go back and say a lot of good things about me to his father?"

"Haha. Leon, don't be afraid. I know everything about you and Kula."
