I rely on myself

Chapter 328 Persuasion
"…Kill them both for me."

Following Edmund's order, the surrounding guards raised their guns and shot at the two men. At the same time, the mechanical hounds beside them suddenly jumped up.

Faced with such a situation, Lin Yuan instantly launched a counterattack. It was as if materialized magic power rose from Lin Yuan's body. A shock wave spread out from Lin Yuan out of thin air, instantly deflecting the attacking bullets and mechanical hounds.

This is not over yet. Lin Yuan understands the current situation very well, but he cannot escape like this. The magic power gathers in the palm of his right hand and even forms a flame. Then Lin Yuan points his palm at Edmund without hesitation, and a large amount of magic power turns into a pure beam of light and shoots out.

"Your Highness!!"

Faced with this sudden attack, General Guredan on the side instantly became nervous and shouted, then quickly ran to Edmund and deployed magic defense to block the sudden attack.

Seeing this attack blocked, Lin Yuan was not surprised at all. While everyone around him was focusing on Edmund, he quickly picked up Io, who had not reacted, and shouted, "Let's go!"

Using the rigid body to strengthen his physical ability, Lin Yuan jumped directly onto the roof, then ran towards the academy directly on the roof.

At this time, Edmund pushed away General Guredan in front of him, with a look of shock still on his face. Lin Yuan's attack just now was really intended to kill him, so Edmund really had a close call with death.

Watching Lin Yuan and Ioun fleeing, Edmund gnashed his teeth and said, "Asshole, you are just a lowly citizen of the Qing Dynasty. Since you dare to do this, good, very good, Ivan!!!"

Following Edmund's shout, Ivan, who was knocked away by Lin Yuan at the beginning, stood up and began to sing again. The invisible vibration that could only be heard by the magician and the automaton appeared again.

Along with this invisible vibration, the automatic dolls running wild on Liverpool Street seemed to have received some kind of instructions. Although they continued to run wild, wantonly destroying the surrounding buildings and kidnapping citizens, they would pay attention to their surroundings from time to time.

In this situation, it was obvious that Edmund had issued orders to all the controlled automatic dolls through Ivan's "Absolute Kingship", asking them to pay attention to the figures of Lin Yuan and Io and to kill them at all costs.

Although Lin Yuan did not know what Edmund would do later, he could guess it just by thinking about it. After all, he almost took his life just now. Edmund, who thought of himself as the king of the world, certainly could not accept this, so he would definitely order all the automatic dolls under his control to kill him.

That's why Lin Yuan is now moving through the rooftops of surrounding buildings instead of walking on the streets, just to avoid getting involved in a battle with those controlled automatic dolls. But even so, the current situation is not good.

Just when Lin Yuan was in distress, Yiou in his arms came back to his senses and said with a sad face: "Put me down, Lin Yuan, if I'm not a burden, you should be able to escape safely, so put me down."

Listening to Yiou's grief-stricken voice, Lin Yuan roughly understood her current state of mind, but still asked, "Why?"

"Because it's me who caused all this! If I hadn't researched Absolute Kingship and Infinite Chain Reaction, Liverpool wouldn't be in chaos now. If I hadn't trusted others so easily, Ivan wouldn't have fallen into the hands of others so easily. If it weren't for me, these things wouldn't have happened now. I must be responsible for this, so let me go, Lin Yuan..."

Yiou directly told the reason for the current chaos in Liverpool. Even though Lin Yuan didn't look at Yiou's expression directly because he had to pay attention to the surrounding situation and hurry on his way, he could still imagine how desperate her expression was now.

Lin Yuan knew that if he didn't say something, Yio would never be able to cheer up.

"Really, I won't say you have no responsibility at all."

After hearing this, Yiou's face still had no expression. Lin Yuan didn't care and continued: "But, if you die like this, can you really be at peace? Do you really plan to do nothing?" "…………"

After hearing this, Io's eyes lit up for a moment, but he soon fell silent again.

Seeing this, Lin Yuan knew he had to use some strong drugs, so he spoke again: "You just watch the so-called Black Prince continue to do this, don't you have any thoughts of revenge on him?"

“…I, I…”

"Of course I don't want to!" This is what Io thought in her heart, but before she said it, she realized that there was no way she could compete with the other party. She was just a researcher, and even her most beloved work (daughter)————

Io couldn't help but widen her eyes because she remembered the existence she cherished the most.

Lin Yuan then continued, "Ivan is your daughter, the daughter you love the most!!"

“…Y-yes?!”

As he said this, tears welled up in Io's eyes again and he spoke in a trembling voice.

"Then go and take her back. Since she is your most beloved daughter, take her back as a parent (puppet master)!"

Lin Yuan stopped talking here, because he had said everything that could be said. The rest depended on whether Yio himself could wake up.

As for Io, although tears continued to flow down her face, the look in her eyes became brighter and brighter, because she was thinking in her heart.

"Yes, I did make a stupid mistake, handing my beloved daughter over to that kind of person so easily. But even so, I still have something I must do, which is to save that child. This is what I must do as a 'mother'! ! "

Io thought it through. Even though he had made a big mistake and even implicated many people, he could not die like this and lose his life so easily.

Because her 'daughter' Ivan was still waiting for her, and if possible, she would punch the man who deceived her hard in the face.

Seeing Io's revived face, Lin Yuan couldn't help but feel relieved. To be honest, persuading others in this way was not something he was good at.

Those words just now were said based on the fact that he, like Io, made his own automatons and regarded them as family members and even children.

If he still couldn't cheer Io up, then there was nothing he could do.
