Chapter 1813: After Modification: Chapter 550 Machinery Ascends to God_3

"Oh, I see..."

Lenny did not understand the Southern Continent, nor did he know the cost of constructing a nine-story magic tower.

But hearing Leonard Churchill say this, he had no more doubts.

He didn’t know when it started, but he found that he had an inexplicable sense of trust in this young man before him, a trust that did not question.

It was as if whatever this man said must be the truth.

Especially after knowing that he was a friend of King Augustus, he felt complete trust.

With an answer, Lenny also thought of the follow-up and guessed, "So, you think the people of Orlan will wait until those people start evacuating before making a move?"

"Yes." Leonard Churchill nodded, "Once the evacuation begins, panic will spread rapidly. No one will care about the bait anymore, and everyone will inevitably strive for a spot on the ship. There are only two Void Dragon Ships, and they can’t carry many people in one trip..."

"...

Hearing this, Lenny’s expression also showed a hint of helplessness.

Even he could see that the Orlan Royal Court’s move was really a blunder.

Originally, more than half of the people in Sinless City were natives of the Eastern Wilderness. This indiscriminate killing was one thing, but the aftermath of this matter could even affect the entire Eastern Wilderness.

But such matters were beyond his reach, so he didn’t ask much.

...

The mark on Ray’s body was placed by Ivan, so no matter where he went, he could be precisely located.

Leonard Churchill was not in a hurry.

He had come out mainly because he felt inexplicably frustrated and wanted to take a look.

The fierce fights in the city had nothing to do with them, and they couldn’t get involved.

Thinking of something, Leonard Churchill asked, "By the way, Lenny, how is your research on mechanical puppets going?"

Lenny did not hide anything and said, "Not bad. Currently, it barely has Sixth Tier combat power. But you know, a Puppet Master’s combat power is greatly limited by the quality of the puppets. As an old man without much wealth, I can’t get any good materials, nor can I afford good battle armor. Sigh... If I could get a few Hunting God Armors, my strength could surpass most Seventh Tier in a short time. I even estimate that with about thirty pieces of Hunting God Armor, I could try for the Eighth Rank..."

Leonard Churchill listened curiously, "Oh. You can precisely control so many high-precision mechanical puppets now?"

As expected of the Playgod Clan’s direct descendant, Lenny’s achievements in the fields of puppets and machinery were very high.

But last time he heard, Lenny could only rely on puppetry techniques to control a few pieces of battle armor. Now it had increased tenfold?

This strength, if the puppets were good enough, would surpass even the official Four Royal Knights under the king.

"Yes, I had a bit of fortune during this time." Lenny humbly said, and continued, "Previously thinking that I didn’t have much time left to live anyway, I ventured into some Alternate Dimensions I had not dared to go before. Luckily, I came out alive and obtained some items highly compatible with a Puppet Master. Of course, the most important thing is that I got some fragments of the consciousness of my Playgod Clan’s ancestors from the [Mist Legacy Relics]. Not only did my ’Thousand Mechanism Puppet God Sect’ secret skill greatly improve, but I also gained a lot of inspiration..."

Hearing that it was related to the relic, Leonard Churchill became interested, "Oh?"

Anyway, they had nothing else to do, so the two started chatting.

Lenny said, "It can be said that almost all the quirky ideas we think of were already studied by some extraordinarily talented ancestors long ago. This includes mechanical prostheses; I am just following in the footsteps of my predecessors... Like the [Diamond-10 Mechanical] path, which actually studies the method of deifying mechanics... That is a forbidden technique that merges consciousness with machinery... Of course, that path is extremely dangerous. The ancestor who attempted it went mad and thus separated that part of cognition..."

"..."

Leonard Churchill listened carefully, growing more expectant as he listened.

One must know that the Playgod Clan has always been one of the Four Royal Knights’ families, not just because of their hereditary titles, but more importantly, because these four families were inherently very strong!

The descendants of strong individuals inherit some of their ancestors’ talents through their bloodlines.

With the addition of royal court resources, the four families of the Royal Knights have produced countless geniuses throughout the generations.

The accumulated knowledge and insights from the research of countless geniuses are the heritage of the family.

Lenny shared all the opportunities and insights he had gained.

Leonard Churchill listened with great interest.

He then realized that the mechanical technology tree of this Extraordinary World had gone off-kilter, truly leaning toward the deification of machinery.

According to ancient myths, there are even purely mechanical planes.

Just like with Great Dragon Titans, there are countless legends about mechanical gods there...

Leonard Churchill had never underestimated machinery, but he didn’t expect its upper limit to be so high.

In the end, Lenny humbly said, "Of course, mechanics are not the mainstream of the Card Master Civilization. The knowledge and skills I currently possess are far from reaching the legendary level... Sigh... If only I had better research conditions."

He muttered to himself, "It’s a luxury... This old body of mine won’t last much longer..."

"..."

Leonard Churchill’s expression remained unchanged as he listened, but many thoughts ran through his mind.

Speaking of research equipment and materials, the New World Machinery City has the best in the world.

Lenny’s understanding of mechanical technology and the data he possessed would fully qualify him to be a teacher there.

As for prolonging life...

Lenny’s lifespan was mostly reduced due to poisoning.

Such acquired life span loss could be healed by the [Xismark Holy Grail] that Camilla possessed.

However, Leonard Churchill had no intention of being a benevolent person.

In his current view, equitable exchange is a universal law, and the most reasonable way for people to interact.

Even between friends.

A thought process formed instantly in Leonard Churchill’s mind.
