I! Cleaner!

It seems that junior high school geometry is still valuable...

After getting off the carriage, which was only allowed in the inner courtyard of the palace, and looking at the outer wall of the palace that had been plated with a layer of iron, Lyon once again confirmed his previous judgment.

The abnormal object that caused the change should be in the palace, and its location is similar to what I calculated. It is most likely the palace in front of me.

In the squares and streets outside the palace, only "living objects" such as pedestrians and horses were affected. But after entering the inner courtyard of the palace, even "dead objects" such as city walls and buildings began to turn into iron. .

Although the stone pavement under my feet still feels like stone slabs when I step on it, the floating dust and dust on the surface of the stone slabs have turned into dark brown rust marks at some point.

Although the garden in the distance is still lush and green, it feels a lot less lively, and the leaves on the treetops no longer sway in the wind. Rather than a carefully constructed garden, it looks more like a giant made of steel and iron. metal bonsai.

The biggest change was the bedroom in front of him.

The originally simple and solemn architectural style with a deep sense of history has suddenly become a lot more rounded and frivolous. Large pieces of dark red iron have appeared on the top spire, and the tall, long and exquisite exterior windows have also changed. It became short, chubby, and lost its clear edges and corners, almost becoming a completely different appearance.

This strange change is like gluing the original human palms with distinct knuckles together with some extremely strong glue, and then kneading all the bones and flesh into a round ball. There is a weird smell everywhere, which is different from the surroundings. Compared with other buildings, they seem so out of place...

"leader!"

Just as Leon touched the head of the black goat and inspected the palace with his soul vision, Joshua, who got off the carriage, quickly followed him and said with shock on his face:

"What happened? Why did the palace suddenly become like this?"

You ask me who I ask? I still want to know!

After glancing back at "Joshua" who still had slap marks on his face, Leon answered:

“Something abnormal must have been triggered.

I just looked carefully and saw no obviously abnormal soul, so the thing that caused the palace to become like this probably did not have a 'user', but an abnormal object that went berserk because it lost control. "

"Then...what should we do? Shouldn't we stop the operation?"

"Cannot abort."

With the help of the black goat's soul vision, after discovering the princess's beating soul flame in her bedroom, Leon couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, and then stepped forward and said:

"There should be only this one chance for you guys with anomalous objects to participate in the coup. If it is stopped now, I don't know how difficult it will be to do it again.

In addition, Princess Veronica is still within the scope of this anomaly. Her succession to the throne instead of the old king is the result that will cause the least damage to the entire kingdom. If something happens to her, then we have to do the worst. plan.

If that happens, even if we succeed in the end, many, many people will definitely die, and the entire kingdom will be severely damaged. It may not take two or three generations to recover, so Now I can only bite the bullet. "

"I see!"

After nodding vigorously, "Joshua" asked nervously:

"Then chief, should we protect the princess first and make sure nothing goes wrong with her, or should we knock out the guard captain first and let me control his body to distract the guards and let our people come in?"

Should we save the princess first or find the captain of the guard first?

After looking at the princess who was full of panic and fear, beating wildly with great anxiety, but still staying in the room without moving at all, Leon said decisively:

“Let’s do these two things together!

Let's split up. The situation with the princess is a bit strange. I have to go take a look first to make sure nothing happens to her.

As for Luke, you are using the prince's body now. The guard captain will not have much defense against you. In the case of a deliberate sneak attack, it is not difficult to knock him out. "

"Okay! I'll go over there right now!"

After hearing what Leon said, "Joshua" nodded, and the two of them happened to have reached the door of the palace. He took a deep breath, followed the usual appearance of the freckled prince, and walked up to the guard standing guard. His face was arrogant and he said:

"Where is your captain? I need to see him for something, take me there quickly!"

After hearing what "Joshua" said, the iron soldier who was standing guard blinked, and then, as if he had just woken up from a dream, he directly picked up the ceremonial stick in his hand and gave "Joshua" a blow with his head.

No one expected that the guards in the palace would actually attack the prince. Unprepared, the stick hit "Joshua"'s head firmly, causing him to fall down with a thud.

Damn it? ! ! !

Confused by this unreasonable blow, Leon hurriedly pulled "Joshua" up from the ground, and found that he was knocked unconscious by the blow. Then he looked at the guard with a look of disbelief on his face. .

"No...why did you hit him?!!"

"Your Majesty the Prince!"

Facing Leon's angry questioning, the guard holding the ceremonial stick saluted hurriedly, then blinked his glass eyes, and said with a puzzled look on his iron face:

"He is a civilian, and he is still wearing the clothes of a criminal. If he approaches the palace rashly like this, he will definitely be beaten out!"

This is obviously Joshua's body, what are you talking about?

Lyon couldn't help but frowned when he heard it, but just when he was about to say something, he suddenly remembered something.

Luke and himself, who occupied Joshua's body, are both holders of abnormal objects with "infection values", so they can not be affected by cognition, still have normal senses, and can distinguish between humans and tin men.

Even when checking his own body, he is completely normal in his sight. If he doesn't touch it, he can't even realize that he has become a tin man, and it is normal to look at each other.

As for Joshua... Although he has no abnormal objects, he has been to the headquarters of the Cleanup Bureau and seen a lot of abnormal objects. After that trip alone, he probably has a few tenths of an infection value on his body, and also has the ability to distinguish between tin and humans.

But the tin soldier in front of him is different.

Since these ordinary people who were affected by the abnormal objects and thought they were tin men did not show any doubt when they saw me, it proved that in their eyes, I and Joshua were probably tin men too.

And this kind of mutual observation between tin men did not seem to be based on the flesh. Their senses and judgment methods seemed to be more inclined to the level of the soul, or identity, status, occupation and other things.

So although Luke occupied Joshua's body, in the eyes of the tin guards, he was not Prince Joshua, but a "civilian criminal near the bedroom", so they raised their hands without hesitation and hit him with a stick.

This is troublesome...

Looking at Luke who lost consciousness after being hit by the stick and automatically separated from Joshua's soul, Leon couldn't help but sigh, and then stretched out his hand and pinched Joshua's philtrum hard.

"Ah!"

After unconsciously yelling, Joshua, who had fainted, sat up suddenly, and the tin guard next to him rubbed his eyes, and then said with a face full of shock:

"Your Highness? You...you were just..."

"Ah!!!!!!!!!!"

The scream from the sky interrupted the tin guard's words.

A tin doll in a bright red dress screamed and fell from the outer window of the bedroom, and hit the ground in the distance with a bang, which really scared Lyon.

"What is it?"

"Reporting to His Excellency the Prince."

After hearing Lyon's question, the tin guard blinked his empty glass eyes, and then replied respectfully:

"If you are asking who fell just now...it should be the respected Queen."

"..."

"Ah?"
