Novel The Max Level Hero has Returned! - Chapter 480
Episode 480:
Edison’s golem Doom, who crushed the saber tiger that had completely turned into a lump of scrap metal in the quiet silence, knelt down on one knee and spread both arms as if it were a ceremony.
Usually, golems implement the lowest artificial intelligence as a magic algorithm.
So, it was said that simply giving the order to charge was all about recognizing the target and pushing it with enormous defense and attack power.
It was really out of common sense to calculate on your own, avoid the opponent’s movements, deal critical hits, as well as break enemies and move on your own.
“Nonsense…”
The first to break the silence was Duran.
He hesitantly walked out with an expression of disbelief.
“This is nonsense!”
“What can’t be said? Hehehe, that guy is really mean.”
He patted Doom’s leg part, as if he was satisfied with making it himself.
And then he said it in a fit of rage.
“I did this, but I wouldn’t do anything wrong! Hurry up and make a declaration!”
“Ah… ah… The winner of the competition is Edison Technical Advisor!”
One member of the evaluation team, who had been absent-minded with an absurd face, hurriedly stood up and shouted.
He looked as if he was going to run to Edison at any moment.
Such behavior manifested itself not only in him, but also in several others.
All of them were faces full of questions about the absurd high-tech technology that Edison introduced rather than the result of the golem competition itself.
Write it… As expected, Heinz Youngji’s technology is the best in the world.
“This is nonsense! I demand a re-evaluation!”
However, there were still people who did not understand the subject and went on a rampage.
Duran shouted with a huff and walked out into the center of the arena, shouting as if he was convinced.
“Four days! Edison’s technical advisor, who hadn’t even been able to properly build a skeleton, made such a golem in such a short time? No words! This must be some kind of dirty trick!”
The audience fell silent at his cry.
“Tell the truth, Edison Technical Advisor! The operation of that golem makes no sense with common sense! Isn’t that right?!”
At his call, some rise up and join him. Normally, I would say stop saying it’s ugly.
Edison’s golem’s technological prowess was so out of common sense that even those in a neutral position could not easily say anything.
“If so, how did that golem move?”
As Edison snorted and said annoyedly, Duran tapped the staff in his hand on the floor.
“You never know! Maybe someone is sneaking around and manipulating it in a tin can that’s just made to react to magic!”
Elder Francis frowned at his cry.
“Magic is not so omnipotent. Prince, and even if someone controls it, if it’s a battle golem with that level of flexibility and durability, it’s no problem at all…” ”
Yes! It’s too much of a problem!”
He squealed, his face shaking.
“This is unmanned! In other words, a competition between golems that operate according to orders! It means Edison Technical Advisor broke the rules! evaluation team! If so, what will be the verdict!”
At his cry, an evaluation team hesitated and then spoke cautiously.
“That’s… disqualification comes. Lowering.”
“Look! And beyond words! Where the hell did you make that golem when the parts were destroyed and it was almost impossible to complete? Please tell me. Edison, technical advisor, didn’t you at least give money to the Mage Tower and receive something that was made for research?!”
“What?!”
An enraged Edison tried to shout something, but Duran cut him off.
“okay! If there is a saint of the Holy Land, even the Mage Tower will not be able to do it carelessly! The prince of the Heinz estate is an important customer even in the Mage Tower, so no wonder!!”
In response to his anger, Edison was silent, as if asking him to do something.
Of course, his granddaughter, Tiara, seemed unable to bear the false accusation.
“Wait! What do you know, you say!? Doom is definitely a golem that my grandfather built himself! Without knowing!”
“Who believes that! Is there any evidence?! There is a limit to watching dirty things. Lady Tiara!”
“Don’t be ridiculous! This is tyranny!”
T-ara, who couldn’t stand it, eventually showed tears and complained of injustice.
“There is such a possibility. It’s definitely great, though. No one has ever seen them do it themselves. But even so, there is no evidence that the prince’s proposal is certain, so stop the competition and start a new competition…” ”
Why are there no witnesses?”
The crowd is silent at my words.
“That’s why, since no one has ever seen him make Doom himself, he faked that he made a golem he brought from somewhere and put it on the market. What is this?”
He exclaimed angrily at my question.
“Outsiders please leave!”
“Outsiders? I am definitely participating in the production process, so am I an outsider?”
I smiled at him as he gritted his teeth with a snapping sound.
“evidence. there is.”
At my words, he frowned.
“What are you doing…”
Ignoring those words, I took out a small mana stone and threw it into the center of the arena.
ugh!!!!
At the same time, the video recorded in it began to emerge.
It was a video recording artifact that recorded the scene at the time.
The first to be seen were Lynn and Edison, who were working on crafting the golem.
The scene of hard assembling and knocking on something is revealed to everyone as it passes by.
“The proof that that is that golem is…”
“If you don’t believe it, try opening it yourself.”
The manufacturing process is often kept secret from the technicians.
It was said that there were very few cases of recording like this.
However, the record remained and it can no longer be said that he did not make it himself.
“Kuh…”
I said coldly with a smile on my face as Duran gritted his teeth and groaned.
“Actually, I was hoping for a commotion like this.”
“what?”
“That way I can officially strike you down and kill you.”
As my words began to pour out of my body, Duran’s expression began to turn blue. Not only that, but also the fear on the faces of the technicians in the area.
“That royal guard!! What are the guards doing! protect me! That lunatic is trying to kill me!!”
At Duran’s cry, some of the worse guards tried to block my way, but before they could get close, Lynne kicked them away.
At the same time, the wings the size of a human forearm on Lune’s back fluttered in everyone’s sight.
“Lynne is the culmination of ancient technology. A high-performance golem of ancient technology. Stated that if such a threat is made further, it will be sanctioned with force.”
Everyone held their breath at her calm tone.
“Prince Davey… It’s never good to threaten a country’s royalty in that country, no matter how saintly they are.”
When the King of Pogos, who was worse than me, spoke with an angry voice towards me, I nodded my head.
“I don’t do this for no reason. your majesty. That’s why I say it.”
“Something.”
“If I had a reason to be so angry, would you accept it?”
He is silent at my words.
I didn’t hear the answer, but I showed it first.
While ignoring the trembling Duran, as I raised Mana slightly, the speed of the video stone began to play and pass by.
Edison, exhausted during production, stretches out, and Tiara, who carefully carries him to the bed, leaves the workshop with me.
When we reached the warehouse after a small conversation, another scene began to appear.
It was six figures secretly entering the dark warehouse.
Five assailants wearing robes, and a man wearing a sinister smile without even wearing a robe.
Everyone knew who the man was.
“Prince Duran?”
“What?!”
As everyone held their breath watching the video, astonishment preceded them.
What was recorded in the video stone was that shocking.
With the help of a being related to vampires, Duran led an unknown assailant to Edison’s warehouse, broke Edison’s parts, and stole the blueprints stored in a box in the warehouse.
“The frivolous parts were dummy parts, so it doesn’t matter if they break, and the blueprints are at the level of children’s graffiti, so you can take them with you.”
I asked while glaring at Duran’s face, which was so blue that he couldn’t even feel the color of his blood.
“When I caught a sample of the assailant and examined it, it contained the power of vampires. I want to ask since when did the human royalty become allowed to join hands with the continent’s official vampire and commit such a thing?”
At my words, the king showed an expression of disbelief.
“This is manipulation! It’s manipulation!! your majesty! This is manipulation!!”
At his cry, the King of Pogos shouted with a stiff face.
“quiet!! Prince, is this the unmistakable truth?”
“If you want to confirm the truth, I will provide the body of the murdered man in front of the Mage Tower and the investigation team of the Seongguk Empire. Where would you like to investigate?”
The Kingdom of Pogos is a city-state famous for its alchemists, but it has lost many people in the previous war with vampires.
In fact, the fact that a large number of war orphans from Pogos were admitted to Hines Academy was also an issue requested by the King of Pogos himself.
Above all, the reason why the King of Pogos extremely hates the radical vampires who invaded at that time.
It was a fact I had heard from Illina, but it seemed that a princess of this country had participated in the war as a priest and had not returned alive.
With the jade leaves, did the king join hands with those who killed his beloved daughter?
There is nothing more to see in the game.
Did you say he was a homeless person?
They said there are no dog-like children under a tiger-like father.
I thought that saying is now a thing of the past.
“Abama! This is a mothership! That author!”
“Duran!!”
“Yup…”
“Is that true?”
“That’s…”
“I asked if it’s true!!!!”
Duran sat down at his furious cry. The shivering seemed to have properly taken the fright.
“Speak Duran!! Did you join hands with those who killed your sister!!”
Everyone’s eyes narrowed.
Those who defended Duran did not step forward as if they were cutting their hands early, perhaps realizing that something was going wrong.
“Oh misunderstood. your majesty! I didn’t know! I just paid and hired an escort to protect me…”
“You’re lying again.”
He was taken aback by my words.
Toow!!!
There is a prescription for a man who lies.
I started raising my divine mana.
Duran is startled by the pure white power flowing from my body.
“Divine magic is meant to protect ordinary people, but if you become a saint, you can use it differently.”
When he took a step back at my words, I stretched out my hand and wrapped my holy power around him.
“I am speaking to the Goddess Pria, who has given me, so please borrow your power to make a confession.”
Duran resisted my words and used evil to get away from the divine power.
“If you tell lies from now on, the divine magic will become a new flame and burn you to death. The most painful thing in the world.”
At my words, some nobles who sided with Duran until the end tried to rise violently, but the King of Pogos stopped them.
“Now then, Prince Duran! tell me where lying is death Did you hold my hand even though you knew you were a vampire?”
He shuddered at my question.
He didn’t answer in the end, but that was enough.
“Listen to the guards!!”
Enraged, he rose from his seat.
His expression was as if he would kill Duran at any moment.
“Are you a human? I asked if you were a person!!!”
“Please save me!! I am just!”
“Keep him locked up! Lock them up and don’t give them a sip of water! I will play that bastard’s joke myself and find the whereabouts of my vampires!!”
“yes!! your majesty!”
“Abama!! Obama!! please save me!! Obama!!”
I looked at him with a cold expression, leaving behind him as he was being dragged away in a frenzy.
Radical vampires, unlike moderates, do not hesitate to do vicious things.
If Duran got caught, he would have put a switch to cut his tail.
Whether it was self-destruction or mutation.
It seems it was the latter this time.
Chew!!
“Quaaaaagh!!”
With screams, the guards who were dragging Duran screamed and fell to the ground.
Fatal wounds were avoided, but significant wounds.
“Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr…did… said no!!”
Red eyes, twisted hands that turned into monsters.
Everyone looked at him in amazement at Duran’s bizarre transformation.
Seeing him drooling and acting as if he would attack at any moment, the King of Pogos grabbed his forehead with one hand and tried to get over it.
“your majesty!!!”
A surprised official helped the king of Phogos.
“Hehe… Hehehehehe! okay! It was! What are you going to do! I needed power! It took strength to ascend the damn throne!!”
Enraged, he glared at his eyes, which had turned red to the whites of his eyes.
Before long, he comes out and glares at Tiara.
“You bastard… You bastard! You are the root of all evil!!! T-ara girl! Come over here right now! Four years is mine! It is mine!!”
As if it was difficult to judge properly, Tiara was frightened by the sight of him screaming and waving her nails all over the place, hiding behind Edison and trembling.
“If it mutated, it would be a summary execution.”
As I watched, I said quietly.
At the same time, something white swung quickly beside me.
Kwaaang!!!
Dust rose with a great explosion.
And when the dust cleared, what everyone saw was Lune’s bandaged little foot trampling on Duran’s body, who was rampaging with great strength.
Lyne, who had been looking down at him expressionlessly while stepping on his chest with her left foot, collected the particles in one hand.
“Waiting for Lynn’s command.”
“Praise Ohhamma highly.”
As I spoke quietly, she gathered the particles together and formed the shape of a large sledgehammer.
It may seem like a moderately heavy weapon from the outside, but you could tell just by looking at it.
That’s an ignorant hammer weighing over 100kg.
The simple destructive power must have more power than the crowbar that she wielded.
Then, she lifted the hammer as if it were going to strike at any moment, and she looked down at Duran expressionlessly.
“Lynne highly rated her ability to kill targets. Adopt Ohama. This…”
“Oh no!!”
“Lynne appreciates saying yes!”
Kwaaang!!!!
With a tremendous explosion, the dust spread all over the place again.
