I really only stop

With a soft word of encouragement, the emperor picked up the teacup and asked casually:

"What's the limit of what you can control? According to this number, I will arrange how many remaining guards."

"Huh? The amount that can be manipulated?"

Feeling that she was expected by His Majesty the Emperor, Nana, who was the worst at dealing with such things, panicked.After hesitating for a long time, she bit her lips:

"Ten, one hundred thousand is okay? If not, I'll try to make more..."

"puff--"

Vaguely, Lu Xi seemed to hear the sound of a sip of tea, and when he quickly turned his head to look, he only captured the appearance of His Majesty the Emperor calmly wiping his mouth with a towel:

"...cough, one hundred thousand? Are you sure?"

"Well, one hundred thousand can be taken out now."

Nodding vigorously, Nana glanced timidly at the emperor, and tentatively whispered:

"If it doesn't work, just give me three days...two days...well! One day! If I work harder, I will definitely be able to prepare more!"

"Enough is enough."

Feeling that his brain was a little swollen, His Majesty the Emperor took a deep breath, and turned to look at Lu Xi, who had a normal face beside him:

"Lu Xi, including Yuxia, you really found a group of teammates who are not easy."

[It's really hard for you. 】

Seeing the subtext in the emperor's eyes, Lu Xiqiang replied with a smile:

"Ahahaha, thanks to this, every day is very pleasant."

[Just a little tired. 】

"Since Nana can provide more than expected puppet combat power, then all ordinary guards can be cancelled."

His Majesty the emperor of cash is definitely a model of doubting people and using people without doubting.The aura of a born emperor made him never have futile doubts about trustworthy people.After asking Chen Nana about her strength, he said decisively:

"I will sign the special action order now. In this incident, Nana can freely draw energy ores and other materials for the golem from the treasury—as for the new dolls made with these materials, don't worry. I won't take it back."

Open the treasury, provide alchemists with almost unlimited high-quality raw materials, and don't care too much about the finished products after the incident-the emperor's magnanimity is undoubtedly revealed in such an action order that can be called "free money".

"But……"

Nana panicked for a while at a loss, before saying:

"My dolls don't seem to need energy to move—woo!"

Covering the mouth of the silly boy who didn't take the money when he saw it, Lu Xi turned around and assured His Majesty Tesla loudly:

"Yes! The mission must be completed!"

PS: Nana (shivering) (soft girl) (timid): Ten, one hundred thousand is okay?

PS2: Speak the most ruthless words in the tone of the softest girl, really the hero among the softest girls.

Chapter 343 Alchemist: Ordinary

"Why didn't Lu Xi let me tell the truth just now?"

Walking out of the emperor's study, Nana sneaked closer to Lu Xi's side, looking at him with some doubts:

"It's true that my puppets can move on their own without using ore for energy. The action order signed by His Majesty the Emperor is useless to me."

It seems that this overly honest soft girl really doesn't know how amazing her talent is.

Rubbing Nana's head helplessly, Lu Xi sighed:

"Didn't you notice the strangeness of Uncle Emperor when he heard [One Hundred Thousand]? Being able to control such a number of puppets, your value in the eyes of any party is no less than that of an entire army. Composed of puppets The army already obeys the command and will not betray, if you let Uncle Emperor know that you use dolls without any consumption, it will definitely cause an uproar."

Although Nana doesn't know her own value, in the eyes of any ambitious person, the power of this soft girl cannot be ignored.

Unlimited summoning, one-man army, no consumption, powerful and absolutely loyal soldiers... Each of these words represents almost infinite war potential, and when they are gathered on one person, it creates even more An existence close to a [monster] appeared.

That's right, it's [Monster].

With Nana's board and talent, he would be a proper Lich King if thrown into a traditional Western fantasy world, the kind that would not be inferior to the real Alsace.

As for the reason why the Emperor Uncle just expressed his shock at this matter and did not go any further, such as "letting Nana forcefully join the army", besides his own character and aura, the most important thing is that he did not grasp the full picture of Nana's ability .

In the eyes of the current emperor, Nana claims to be able to manipulate dolls of [-] levels.Facing such an exaggerated number, he would naturally think that this is an extremely limited ability, and the most likely limitation is the subsequent astronomical consumption.

[On the premise of sufficient resources, any alchemist can form an army by itself] ——If you guessed correctly, His Majesty Tesla probably thinks that Nana’s ability is the kind of massive consumption mentioned in this proverb. Types of.

After all, if you just talk about [10 dolls], even an ordinary carpenter can make them in a few years.

"—So, besides us, it's better for you to pretend to be an ordinary alchemist in front of others."

Knowing that this is not a problem that can be easily passed by just haha, Lu Xi looked at Nana with a serious look in his eyes:

"Although it's a bit clichéd, the saying [Great power will attract all kinds of covetousness] is generally correct."

"Well, I remember."

Sensing the concern and firmness hidden in Lu Xi's words, Nana blushed and made a promise, and then tilted her head in confusion:

"But, I'm really just an [ordinary alchemist]? This is the truth, why use the word 'pretend' to describe it?"

Lu Xi: "..."

Did Nana still have the attribute of [Natural Stupidity]?

Under the sway of those puppets, what kind of twisted "ordinary" in Nana's eyes has it become?

------------

"Lu Xi, Your Highness Yuxia, and of course Miss Nana and Miss Celica, you are all here."

As soon as he walked to the big library where the orbs are kept, hearty greetings sounded from mid-air, and the next moment, the figure of Memphis appeared beside Lu Xi and his party out of thin air:

"Thank you for your hard work. Please help me. The specific details of this matter are agreed upon by His Majesty and I. You don't need to explain it to me again~"

"Uncle Mephis, where is the orb we want to protect now?"

Knowing the urgency of the current situation, Yuxia cut straight to the topic:

"I want to set up several holy light circles as traps around the orb. In this way, as soon as the demon shows up, I can immediately arrest him and bring him to justice."

Hearing the words [arrested and brought to justice], Lu Xi shivered again.

On issues related to the demons, my family's always virtuous and virtuous lady saint is so shrewd and capable, and I'm afraid.

"The orb is kept at the top of the clock tower of the Great Library. If it is arranged this way, the enemy will suffer a big loss if he can't fly. The complex structure of the clock tower itself is enough to cause headaches. I really don't think there will be any The flying ones climbed up the bell tower and took the orb right under our noses."

Stretching out his finger to the straight clock tower of the Imperial Library, Memphis suddenly blinked at this point:

"And ah! Don't you think that the treasure should be placed on the top of the tower under the night sky to be more in line with the story of the appearance of the phantom thief in the biography? The moon, the tower, the phantom thief under the moon—this is [romance] where literature reflects reality!"

...This is the real reason why you put it on the top of the tower.

Seeing through the excitement hidden in Memphis' eyes at a glance, Lu Xi was speechless for a while.

Sure enough, Mr. Memphis is still as unreliable as ever.

"So, what about the magical countermeasures?"

After nodding to express understanding, Yuxia, who has completely entered the [Demon Hunter (pseudo)] mode, will never let go of any loopholes:

"Teleportation, space teleportation... If you don't restrict them, no matter how complete the defense is, it will be useless."

"Don't worry, we have already prepared for this."

Taking out a gorgeous staff from the void, Mephis tapped lightly under his feet, and a huge magic circle that almost covered the entire library appeared.

"Wow! Are these all magic circles?!"

As a magician, even though she hardly learns professional magic knowledge, Celica can easily see the terrifying massive magic power from the magic circle under her feet:

"What an astonishing power! Generally speaking, the larger the area of ​​the magic circle, the more terrifying the magic power and spiritual power that needs to be consumed - to be able to cast such a terrifying technique! Who are you?!"

"Hahaha, Miss Celica is as interesting as ever. I'm Memphis."

Tapping the magic circle under his feet with his staff to make it disappear again, facing the surprised gazes of everyone in Lu Xi's team calmly, Mephis spread his hands with a smile:

"Don't take me too seriously. Naturally, such a large area cannot be a forbidden magic circle. In fact, this is just a simple magic circle used to record and track magic power. Even if you draw such a large one, it is very difficult to manipulate. Easy."

"Even that's amazing!"

Celica will not believe this nonsense that can only be used to deceive magical Muggles. She looks at Mephis with little stars in her eyes:

"Great is handsome, and handsome is truth! Magician who uses such a powerful spell, I want to express my deep respect for your power!"

In Celica's weird aesthetic, black things are cool, and big things are cool—a childish idea, really.Black flames and Gundams always attract a large group of chuuniji.

What?You ask me if there is something black and big?

Handcuffed and taken away, there is no need for interrogation, just shoot him.

Seeing Mevis who smiled wryly in response to Celica's compliment, Lu Xi glanced around, feeling a little emotional in his heart.

The middle-aged group with tacit understanding and full strength; the humanoid almighty abductee with a self-propelled holy light and an output hand, the Holy Queen; was added [Accepted, entrusted and expected by His Majesty the Emperor! ] buff so full of firepower of the strange master and her dolls; plus a soy sauce in name, in fact, even without relying on the big sister, she has grown into a powerful magician—even without me With his participation, the strength of this escort team has also reached a super-standard level.

[Phantom Thief K] Ah...

Looking up at the bright full moon above his head, Lu Xi stretched his waist for a long time, showing a pitiful smile at the corner of his mouth.

At this time, as the protagonist, I must say a handsome word as a prelude to the opening of the magnificent curtain.So--

"Artists become famous only after their death. In the name of the person who is about to arrest you, let me make you a veritable monster thief that only exists in [story]!"

Pretending to cover his face and look cold, Lu Xi slowly opened the corners of his mouth:

"Under your mask, what kind of face is hidden?"

PS: Lu Xi (this chapter): Follow the empire firmly!Thinking is not slippery, definitely stand in this team!

PS2: (————————→)

Chapter 344 Flag recovery is too fast!

"Phantom Thief K is me, I'm really sorry!!!!"

"..."

Looking at the undercover girl in front of him who sincerely bowed at ninety degrees to express her apology, Lu Xi was speechless on the surface, but the desire to complain in her heart had reached its peak——

Is Flag recycled so fast? !

Obviously, I just said coolly at the end of the last chapter, 'Whose face is hiding behind your mask' so forcefully, but after a scene jump, the real culprit was brought to me? !

exist?The God of Creation came out to be beaten!

"Why?!"

Without even touching the small coffee-flavored cake that Claire used to make amends, Lu Xi couldn't help but cover the undercover girl's forehead:

"Hiss...he didn't have a fever, could it be that he was hit by an invisible blunt object and left internal injuries?"

"Oh! You, what are you doing!"

Some flusteredly opened Lu Xi's hand, and Claire concealed her delicate mood with a delicate white eye:

"No illness or amnesia, the one standing in front of you is me, the real Claire!"

"No, that's even more wrong."

Lu Xi shook his head vigorously, and looked at the undercover girl in surprise as if seeing him for the first time:

"Do you know how much Uncle Emperor attaches importance to this matter now? What kind of [Phantom Thief K] is specially asked for when Yuxia comes back? If you really plan to keep the appointment as scheduled, it is estimated that this will be the last conversation between us. "

"I, I also know that this matter is very risky...but, but——"

Quite rare, Claire, who has always been confident about everything, burst into tears:

"Who would have expected this to happen so suddenly!!!"

---------------

"Before explaining the ins and outs of everything, I want to ask Lu Xiqing a question."
