I rely on myself

Chapter 204 Extraordinary Facts

"We've been watching for so long. Now that everything is completely over, it's time for you to come out."

Following Solomon's shout, the people hiding knew that they had already been discovered, so they came out directly from their hiding place.

A group of people wearing black coats, elegant coats with gold trims, with deep hoods and no visible faces, like a religious group from somewhere, came out from hiding. They were the Gray Cross Unit of the Magicians' Association.

A leading person stepped out of the line, and judging from her exposed chin, she should be a woman, and what happened next also proved this fact.

"Hello, unknown automaton. I don't know your name, so please forgive me for using such an impolite name."

The female voice gave people a cold and gorgeous feeling. Although she spoke respectful words, her cold tone only gave people a feeling of being polite and perfunctory, and that was indeed the case.

Solomon did not have any emotional fluctuations because of the other party's attitude. After all, these people had nothing to do with him, so there was no need to care about their attitude.

"Gray Cross? It seems that the Magician Association is not as slow as other forces. Did you realize that there is a problem within your own faction in this incident? And you were able to see my true identity. It seems that you are not an ordinary person either."

"Personally, I would like to thank you for your compliment. As you said, although it is a bit embarrassing, this incident seems to be an internal problem of ours. So I would like to ask you to hand this person over to us for disposal, please?"

After some pleasantries, the female member of the Gray Cross directly stated their purpose, which was to detain Old Cole. After all, the other party was a member of their Magicians Association, and they also had many questions that they wanted answers from Old Cole.

As the female member of the Grey Cross stated this purpose, although the members of the Grey Cross did not appear to have changed on the surface, they all tensed up their bodies and were on guard at all times. After all, they had seen clearly how amazing the opponent's strength was.

If the other party becomes dissatisfied with their words and takes action, they will not have a good ending. But they cannot keep silent, because this concerns whether there are other accomplices in the Magician Association. So they have to take the risk of angering the other party and boldly initiate the inquiry.

Unlike the anger that Gray Cross had guessed, Solomon felt a sense of relief. After all, the original plan was for him to capture Old Cole, then find a way to hand him over to the Magicians Association and expose his actions at the same time.

And now that Gray Cross has taken over on his own initiative, this is the best thing for Solomon. He can finish his work early and go back to continue his experiments, so Solomon responded directly.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you. I don't have to put in any more effort."

After he finished speaking, a magic circle suddenly appeared under Solomon's feet, and with a flash of light, Solomon's figure disappeared without a trace.

Everyone in the Gray Cross couldn't help but be stunned when seeing this scene, but they reacted immediately. The female member of the Gray Cross who stepped out immediately said, "Quick, treat the prisoner's injuries immediately and get him out of danger first, otherwise he won't be able to hold on for long." Upon hearing this, three people in the Gray Cross team immediately stepped out and walked towards Old Cole, giving him treatment and first aid to prevent him from really dying. After all, they still needed to know from Old Cole who else had accomplices in the Magicians' Association.

Then the Gray Cross female member continued, "We also sent some people to check on the situation of the action team, but they should have finished their work there."

"Oh, why be so judgemental, Comrade Warbler."

That's right, this female member of the Grey Cross is Kimberly, codenamed "Orybito", who is also the professor of mechanical physics at the Royal Institute of Mechanical Engineering.

Perhaps because the people around him were all his own people, he simply pulled down his hood, revealing his cold and beautiful face.

"It's very simple. The whole process is very simple. There was no so-called kidnapper at the beginning. It was just that this criminal used his power in the association to secretly switch the children. Then they were accidentally discovered and rescued. In order to find out why this happened, they pretended to be kidnappers and sent anonymous letters demanding ransom to the association. This was all their plan."

As Kimberly explained, she glanced at old Cole who was still in a coma.

"So no matter the kidnappers the action team encountered, or the automatons we encountered, they are all in the same group. Their goal is to lure this guy out and then expose him. So if nothing unexpected happens, the action team should have finished. After all, the goal has been achieved, and the other party will not stay any longer. As for those children, they will probably be returned to us."

After listening to Kimberly's explanation, the surrounding Gray Cross members also completely understood the whole story.

"And judging from the way the puppets left, I'm afraid they are the ones who destroyed God's Workshop and killed Bronson. After all, those people also used the same method to teleport away from the scene."

Kimberly suddenly spoke again at this time, and the Gray Cross members around heard it, compared it, and instantly matched it.

However, a member of the Gray Cross suddenly spoke up, "Comrade Ying, you really didn't see it wrong, that person just now was really an automaton? It's not that I don't believe in your knowledge of mechanical magic, but this is too amazing. He can perform magic instantly with just a wave of his hand, and it's magic of many different attributes and types. More importantly, he used so many magics in the whole battle. Logically speaking, an automaton can't sustain this consumption without a puppet around to provide magic power."

The doubts expressed by this Gray Cross member were also the doubts in the hearts of other members. To be honest, when they heard Kimberly say that the other party was an automatic doll, many people subconsciously wanted to refute it, but because of the tense situation at the time, they had to suppress this doubt in their hearts. Now that someone has raised this doubt, everyone is very curious.

And Kimberly gave a direct answer.

"I know it's incredible, but it's true. After careful observation, I found that he is indeed an automaton. This can be seen from some of his movements and structure. As for why he can break through the Principle of Magical Inconsistency and use a variety of different magics, as well as his huge magical power, it is probably related to the Divine Technique..."
