Mythic Card Master: Start with a Knight

Chapter 355: Surface and puppets

Thunder light surged from Chu Ming's palm, and the long black sword could not exceed half an inch. The demon doll was wrapped in red, and its expression could not be seen clearly.

He glanced back at Ronnie, "Why are you still standing here?"

Ronnie came to his senses, bowed slightly, then turned around and hurriedly flew down the street.

"Roar!"

The demon idol seemed to have completely lost consciousness, with its mouth wide open and roaring like a beast.

"boom!"

The thunder exploded, and a red light like flame spread towards Chu Ming.

"Stop!"

"boom!!"

A thunderstorm suddenly broke out with Chu Ming as the center, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and thunder and lightning roared continuously.

As if the demon was hit hard, the thunder and fire on its body subsided, revealing the array pattern that turned red due to overload.

Chu Ming spread his spirit and wanted to shut down the demon, but the demon seemed to have been touched to the bottom line. It struggled wildly, roared randomly, and blocked his mental power.

"Can't you shut down normally?"

He frowned slightly, grabbed the devil's neck with his right hand, and grabbed the devil's torso with his left hand.

"boom!"

A big hole was instantly opened in the demon doll's chest, and the magic energy core flashed with red sparks, and Chu Ming held it in his hand.

"Roar!"

Without the energy core, the golem's eyes became extremely dim, but the power of memory soon gathered in its chest, trying to make up for the vacancy in the magic energy core.

"It's really troublesome, and it takes time to repair it."

Chu Ming sighed, pressed his palm on the back of the demon doll's head, and squeezed hard. The metal made a "creaking" sound, and he forcefully pulled out the memory crystal from inside.

"Zizzizi..."

The firelight splashed down, and the devil completely lost its mobility. It was holding its hands and feet, and the red formations were fading away.

Chu Ming casually stuffed the demon into the sub-space and looked down.

On the streets, demon dolls were raging, mingling with guild knights. The scene was extremely chaotic, and screams would be heard from time to time.

The golden flames in his eyes flowed out like lava, his eyes were cold and solemn, and he pulled out the sword of guidance.

"thunder!"

"Boom!"

The black clouds were mixed into a ball, and there seemed to be a huge beast swimming in it. The lightning flashed and fell straight down, hitting the sword in his hand.

"go."

His arm suddenly shook, and with lightning speed, the sword hit the street with a "bang".

"Rumble..."

Thunder was attracted by the sword and chased after him. In an instant, a thunderstorm swept through the entire street. The thunder snake shuttled through it, penetrating the body of the out-of-control demon, and the red formations burned its face black.

"This lightning?"

The knights on the street looked around in confusion. They found that Thunder seemed to have deliberately avoided them. Even if the golems were exploded by Thunder's electric shock, there were no traces of burning on their bodies.

"It's the grown-up."

The knight looked up to the sky, his tone extremely excited.

Everyone looked up, their eyes resting on the thunder shadow, and they couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.

The thunder continued until the last demon doll died and fell to the ground. Chu Ming used magic to slowly descend and pulled out the sword that had made a big hole in the ground.

He glanced around and finally found Miguel in the crowd.

"What's happening here? Why are there such large-scale golems out of control?"

Miguel smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "There was no sign that the demon puppets were out of control. The demon puppets on the street suddenly went crazy. If I hadn't been able to hide quickly, I might have ended up here today."

Chu Ming frowned, obviously he was not satisfied with this answer.

"Mr. Ryan."

At this time, the presidents of the three major guilds rushed over.

Sichu thought for a while, then looked up at the three of them, "How did the puppet lose control?"

The three of them looked at each other. Grayson swallowed and stood up and said, "At that time, we had just finished discussing the formation of the knight organization with the mayor of the city hall and returned from the city hall."

"Unexpectedly, as soon as we entered this street, the golems working around us suddenly lost control and attacked the surrounding knights indiscriminately."

The man wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Fortunately, here are all knights with extraordinary strength. If any civilians are injured, it will be in trouble."

"Um……"

Chu Ming fell into deep thought.

"Brutal!"

Suddenly a long cry came from the sky, the Iron Eagle Knights rushed in, and the Iron Eagle glided from the sky and fell to the ground.

Chu Ming turned around and saw that Captain Iron Eagle, who was headed by him, was none other than Iron Eagle Knight Haiwen, who had checked the airship when the magic airship landed.

After several Iron Eagle knights jumped off the Iron Eagle, they checked the golem lying on the ground, asked the surrounding knights, and started collecting information professionally.

Hai Wen noticed the presidents of the three congresses and Chu Ming not far away, and couldn't help but be stunned. He stepped forward and saluted Chu Ming: "Sir, we meet again."

Chu Ming nodded, "Hello, Knight Haven."

Haiwen said with a cup of his hands: "I want to ask about the details of the out-of-control demon doll on the street."

Grayson hurried forward and told the story again.

After hearing this, Haiwen fell into deep thought. After a while, he raised his head and thanked Chu Ming: "Thank you for your contribution to the city's security. After the incident is investigated, the city hall will award you a certificate." Medals of Honor and Awards.”

"Please help maintain the scene. The Cavaliers still need to investigate the incident."

"That's natural. Knight Haven is too polite."

The presidents of the three major guilds responded one after another.

There was nothing going on at the scene. Chu Ming said goodbye to Haiwen, took Miguel away from the scene, and returned to the guild.

"Teacher, are you alright?"

Ana and others gathered around.

Chu Ming shook his head and said, "Let's forget all the little things."

After hearing Chu Ming's words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and gradually dispersed.

"The devil lost control...how on earth did it do that?"

Chu Ming thought about it and returned to the room. He took out the dead demon puppet Ren from the subspace.

After careful study, he found that the formation marks on the golem's body, the magic energy core, the memory crystal and other important parts had been damaged to varying degrees due to overload.

The metal baffle on the demon doll's body had long since disappeared, and the array pattern was exposed. With just a gentle wipe, the array pattern fell off from it like ashes.

There are varying degrees of minor cracks on the metal joint balls on the body and the metal on the limbs used to support and expand the formation.Even the magic energy core and memory crystal he removed from the body of the demon were covered in fog, and the crystal was filled with a large number of cracks, as if it was on the verge of breaking.

Just one loss of control caused this relatively new demon to end its lifespan early, and its condition seemed worse than those that had been used for hundreds of years.

"Oh, if you want to repair it, you have to replace all the parts. There is no value in repairing it."

"But you can take it with you to Senior Sister Trina and Senior Sister Lindsey to ask why the devil got out of control."

After taking the demon back into the subspace, Chu Ming took out the memory crystal given by Lindsey and carved Andrew's third main crystal.

It was getting late, and only part of the crystal recording was completed, and he was called out by Ana.

"Teacher, that sister is here to see you again."

"Anyone looking for me?"

Chu Ming put away the crystal, walked out of the courtyard, and saw Mattie chatting happily with Luticia.

"Sister, are you really a demon?"

"Well, it's true."

"Wow, that's amazing!"

"..."

Chu Ming walked up to the two of them and asked Mattie: "Good evening, why are you here so suddenly?"

Mattie bowed and saluted, "Good evening, Mr. Lane. Miss heard that a large-scale incident of golems going out of control occurred in Knight Street, and she asked me to come and take a look."

"Mattie is relieved to see that you are okay."

"But you'd better go to the palace in person. The lady said there are some things she wants to tell you."

Chu Ming touched his chin, "Is it about the demon puppet losing control?"

Mattie nodded and blinked at him.

"There is also the latest progress in the production of the golem. The lady said that the production of the golem is going very smoothly. It may be completed in a few days. She suggests that you stay in the palace for the time being."

"Then let's leave now. I also want to know what caused the devil to lose control."

Chu Ming said goodbye to Luticia and the two of them, and followed Mattie in a carriage to the palace.

Half an hour later, the two entered the palace and walked into the previous library.

Mattie walked through the corridor at a leisurely pace. Some maids who had just finished their work stopped respectfully and saluted her when they saw Mattie coming.

The girl responded with a smile and took Chu Ming back to Lindsey's puppet laboratory.

"The ladies are all inside, Mr. Ren, please come in."

Maddie opened the door and invited him in.

Chu Ming looked inside. Lindsey had her hair tied up and was assembling a precise small ball. This small ball was a gyroscope placed on the demon doll, which was used to assist the demon doll in identifying its direction and controlling its body.

It can be seen from her relaxed expression that this job is not difficult for her, and she even has the energy to chat with Trina who is leaning on the experimental table.

After Chu and Ming came in, Trina and Lindsey ended their conversation and turned their attention to him.

Trina asked softly, "Are you okay?"

Chu Ming smiled and said: "It's nothing serious. Most of the out-of-control demons are working demons. The knights around the knight street can handle them."

"But more than this, I want to know what caused the so-called golem to lose control."

He reached into the void, took out the remains of the demon doll from the silver vortex, and placed it on the table.

"The complete remains of the out-of-control puppet?"

Trina looked interested. She walked to Chu Ming's side, lowered her head and carefully observed the formation patterns on the demon doll's body that had turned into powder.

After a while, she raised her head, held on to the holders of her glasses, and chuckled: "Junior brother, that's a big help. This is the first time I've seen such a complete wreckage of an out-of-control puppet."

Afraid that he was unclear, the woman explained: "The occurrence of the golem's loss of control is random, and the entire process from the occurrence to the end of the golem's loss of control is very fast."

"These out-of-control golems are generally of very low level and cannot withstand the overload of power, and will be burned instantly."

"Normally, by the time the law enforcement team or the Cavaliers arrive on the scene, there is nothing but charcoal left."

"The materials used in the golem in your hand are of relatively high quality. It can withstand greater overload pressure and can be forced to shut down in time to retain it."

"If we can conduct in-depth research, we might be able to completely figure out the reason why the puppet lost control."

Chu Ming was stunned for a moment, "Senior sister, don't you know the reason why the puppet lost control?"

Trina blinked, "No one knows how the golem lost control yet, but I know that the golem lost control not spontaneously, but someone was behind it."

Chu Ming's mind moved, and he felt that he seemed to be close to the answer.

"Sister, do you know who it is?"

The woman smiled, her expression getting darker.

"Do you still remember the trial that took place in the mages' meeting when you just came back from the Thorn Flower?"

Chu Ming nodded and said cautiously: "Tower Master Musa Kazim and Teacher Aiman ​​have been grudges for a long time and want to deprive the teacher of his position as acting tower owner."

Trina smiled and said: "If it is just grudges, it is not enough to be the driving force for Musa Kazim's actions. After all, he also knows the consequences of a failed trial."

"The reason why he dared to stand up and accuse the teacher was all because of Victor Guzman, one of the ten people who supported him behind the scenes."

Hearing Victor's name, Chu Ming's mind trembled, and he recalled that when he and Crono went to the Floating Island to obtain the magic pattern, they met the man who presided over the magic pattern ceremony. It was Victor, one of the ten seats.

"Senior sister, you mean that Victor has something to do with the golem losing control?"

There was some confusion on Chu Ming's face. He couldn't figure out how the ten seats in the meeting were related to the distant country of demons. They also went deep into the vortex of the demon city and had something to do with the demons losing control.

Lyndsy on the side put down the gyroscope and answered for Trina: "As early as in the Violet King City, this tenth seat has been eyeing us, and the so-called conference trial is just a test of us by Victor. "

"The series of accidents that happened in the Golem City later strengthened Trina and I's thoughts."

Trina lifted her hair and apologized: "I'm sorry, junior brother, it was not because of the accident in the Golem City that I left the Violet King City. It was because Lyndsey was afraid that I would be persecuted by Victor, so she specially sent the Griffin Knights. Come and welcome me back to the country of Migliorini.”

Chu Ming shook his head and said: "Senior sister, there is no need to apologize to me, but I still don't quite understand. What is Victor's plot?"

Trina chuckled, "Junior brother, please take out the divination cards."

Chu Ming's eyes flashed, and suddenly he seemed to understand something, and his heart shook. He connected all the clues in his mind, took out the four divination cards from the subspace, and pulled out the "Puppet" card from inside.

Trina picked up the "Doll" card with her red fingertips and said with a smile, "Yes, that's what Victor is for."

Chu Ming was shocked, "Did Victor betray the meeting of mages and join the evil god's camp?!"

Trina looked deeply at the card at her fingertips, her eyes seeming to see through the card the turbulent undercurrent hidden behind it.

"Who knows."

"But Victor is indeed seeking the 'doll' of the prophecy."

Lindsey said: "Junior brother, you can stay here for the next few days. There is a high probability that Victor will recognize your identity. It will be safer in the palace."

"It just so happens that the puppet is almost finished, and it's time to carry out the final step of alchemy of the puppet's life."

The truth Trina told was so shocking that Chu Ming couldn't calm down for a while, so he subconsciously nodded in agreement.
