Academy City's Puppet Master

"You got your bloodline from the blood bestowed by Baiyin Yao, why do you behave like the first bloodline?"

Ling Xingye looked at his hands and said, "Maybe it's because... I was born silver."

===Chapter 64 New Puppet===

Hitomi Shiranui hurried into the lounge, seeing that Ling Xingye was safe and sound, drinking water and resting, he breathed a sigh of relief, showing a calm expression.

"Thanks, thanks for your arrangement." Ling Xingye walked up to hug the girl.

"Is the enemy strong?" Hitomi Shiranui's voice trembled a little. She didn't really understand the strength of the water behind and the danger Ling Xingye was facing until just now when she kept receiving the latest battle reports.

She couldn't help feeling a bit of fear in her heart—fortunately, she managed to persuade Accelerator to help, otherwise...

Feeling the girl's trembling body, Ling Xingye gave a wry smile and patted her on the back lightly.

"It's really powerful, but it's not enough to kill me." He comforted, "Don't worry, I won't die so easily."

"But judging from the current situation, you are so easy to die - if you are still prepared to continue to fight." Commander Hua poked at the inopportune time.

Ling Xingye stared hard.

Commander Hua snorted: "Am I wrong? Even if you can recover yourself, but in a monster state... remember, you are a puppet master after all."

After being reminded by her, Hitomi Shiranui noticed the sprite lying next to him on the workbench.

The tragic injury that nearly destroyed half of her body made her exclaim.

Affected by Ling Xingye, Shiranuo Tong also has feelings for the sprite, and it is very sad to see it in such a miserable state at this time.

The puppet masters of the "Baiyin" organization are powerful, and the combination of their profound inheritance and the blood of Baiyin makes them a literal "superman".

But as Commander Hua said, no matter how powerful they are, they are still puppet masters after all.

Pulling silk and puppets are their real fighting power.A puppet master without a puppet is like a soldier on the battlefield without a gun - there is a high probability that he will be killed.

"There's still time, if you gather enough materials, it should be repairable." Ling Xingye said.

Hitomi Shiranui said suddenly: "I brought the clown."

With that said, she broke free from Ling Xingye's embrace, and beckoned the people outside the door to bring in a box.

It was the new puppet that had been delivered to the door of the apartment a few days ago.

Commander Hua is very familiar with this puppet - the packing box was found from her by the spider.

"Although I still can't agree..." She sighed, "But it's the only way to go now."

Hua 72 also said: "That's right, now sprites have become the main reason for restricting Xingye. If you want to become stronger, you must switch to a stronger puppet."

Ling Xingye looked at the clown in the box, and was a little surprised: "It's because you thought of bringing it here, Tong."

"It was suggested by Ah Yao." Hitomi Shiranui said.

"What about her?"

"I didn't come, it seems that something happened." Hitomi Shiranui shook her head, "We contacted by mobile phone."

"That's right..." Ling Xingye looked at the two puppets in front of him with a complicated expression, "Even the 'prophet' said that."

But the bewildered look only lasted for a short moment, and Ling Xingye immediately cheered up.

He stepped forward and patted the sprite's body: "Sorry, partner. Wait a moment, and I will fix you later."

Seeing this move, none of the people present felt surprised.

Everyone in the flower group is a puppet master themselves, and it is even more clear that there is such a close relationship between the puppet master and the puppet.

Shiranuotong also knows Ling Xingye's painstaking efforts and affection for the monster, and sometimes she even envies such a puppet...

Shiranui Hitomi let out a soft "Huh" suddenly, and looked over carefully.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but she seems to feel a pair of eyes flashing brightly.

But when he looked again, he found nothing.

"Is there still time to familiarize yourself with the temporary replacement of the puppet?" Third Senior Sister Yu Wufei also walked in.

With her is a mechanical spider the size of a schoolbag.

"No way," said the spider, "Compared to this, repairing and upgrading sprites will take longer... Really, wouldn't these problems disappear if you get familiar with the new puppet earlier? Thankfully, I sent it to you specially. ..."

Yu Wufei asked suddenly: "Xingye, I remember that your monster can move by itself? And it looks very powerful, why..."

In her impression, when she was kidnapped by Kihara Qianmu, the sprites behaved extremely fiercely, making it impossible for Kihara Qianmu to attack Ling Xingye.

Ling Xingye shook his head: "It was an accident, we can't rely on him..."

——Unless there is no other way out.

Ling Xingye said silently in his heart.

He knew very well that if "that guy" came out, he might really be able to defeat the water behind.

But the price is likely to be the disappearance of "Ling Xingye", and "Ling Qianji" will replace it.

Therefore, Ling Xingye instinctively refused to let him out.

It is also for the same reason that he is unwilling to replace the puppet.

Sprites are puppets of the "Antique" level, their structures are so simple that they are heinously simple, and they can only be put into actual combat by relying on the "phase fulcrum".

Although this limited Ling Xingye's strength, on the other hand, it was also the best "container" to restrain Ling Qianji.

Because of the simple structure, even if Ling Qianji is capable of all things, he can't show much.

"But now is not the time to worry about those things." Ling Xingye shook his head to calm himself down.

Ling Xingye took out the new puppet "Harlequin" and placed it beside the monster, preparing to familiarize himself with its structure first.

At this moment, there was a buzzing sound from the sprite's chest.

A ray of golden light broke through its clothes, jumped into the air and stayed there slightly.

Everyone used this to see clearly that it turned out to be a gear.

Before Ling Xingye and the others could make a move, the gear shot down again.

At the same time, as if the clown's chest had been fitted together, a gap was sunken, just for the gear to fit into it.

hum! ! !

The moment the two were combined, the gears rotated at a high speed, like a heartbeat, making the clown seem to have life, exuding an extraordinary aura.

All the puppet masters present were in shock because of this change, and the petals and mist instantly filled the room.

Ling Xingye still remained calm, and connected the clown with a silk thread.

He just moved his fingers slightly.

boom!

But the clown seemed to be convulsed, and directly ejected and took off, rushing to the ceiling, and almost half of his body was embedded in it.

Ling Xingye was also taken aback, and hurriedly continued to manipulate.

There was another bang, and the clown fell like a heavy hammer, smashing the floor fiercely.

There was silence in the room, save for the whirring of gears.

"What are you doing?" Commander Hua asked unkindly, "Do you have any objections to me?"

"It's too sensitive." Ling Xingye was sweating profusely, not daring to act rashly. "This guy seems to have his own power, which can capture and amplify my operations!"

It is extremely sensitive, self-powered, and extremely powerful. It is not an exaggeration to say that after getting familiar with it, the clown will move at will, like the existence of arms and fingers, even more flexible than Ling Xingye's own body!

"What the hell is that gear?" Hua 72 and Yu Wufei couldn't help exclaiming.

"I don't know either, I just know that Yanshi Baoliang stayed behind." Ling Xingye shook his head.

The spider said meaningfully: "The ever-changing relic, as expected, this is what the puppeteer's will is aiming at!"

Ling Xingye had no time to take care of other things, and concentrated on trying to manipulate the clown.

Unlike sprites, when manipulating sprites, Ling Xingye exerted as much force as possible, lest sprites lack combat power.

But now, it is necessary to be careful and control every ounce of power delicately like threading a needle, otherwise, if one is not careful, the clown will turn into a rampaging cannonball.

The material of Harlequin is also particularly good, even tougher than sprites.Therefore, even if it is a silver puppet master, it is not easy to be bumped.

Manipulating the clown to walk a few steps, Ling Xingye, who found the rhythm, just breathed a sigh of relief, and his fingertips trembled slightly.

The clown immediately turned into a cannonball and rushed towards Ling Xingye himself!

===Chapter 65 Puppet Mutation===

Seeing the clown rushing towards him like an arrow from the string, Ling Xingye was also taken aback, and quickly pulled the silk thread, trying to stop it.

But this time it was a step too late. Under the surprised eyes of others, Ling Xingye and his new puppet collided fiercely.

"What's the situation..." Ling Xingye lamented in his heart, feeling that the new puppet was very unfriendly, "Sure enough, let's continue to use sprites."

"It is the puppet master's incompetence to be unable to control his own puppets." Suddenly, such words came from behind him.

Ling Xingye turned around and looked, and it was the puppet clown who was talking... But the clown in front of him was no longer the bald puppet image before, but a suit of clothes, shoes and hats he found from somewhere, and at first glance At first glance, it is no different from ordinary human beings.

Ling Xingye was startled, and immediately looked around, only to find that he was no longer in the lounge just now, and surrounded by an illusory dark space that stretched into the distance.

"Did you do it?" Ling Xingye raised his eyes to look at the clown opposite.

The latter's rigid metal face softened as if melting, revealing a smile: "It's the first time we meet, please take care of me, Xingye."

"Who are you?" Ling Xingye asked.

"I am you."

"You are... Qianji?!" Ling Xingye frowned and thought for a while, and the name immediately popped up in his mind, "Is that really the case?"

Ling Xingye already knew about his second personality being "Qianji".It was also because of this that he was always on guard against the other party, not daring to let this guy appear easily.

In the end, I still couldn't escape...
