My exclusive card pool

Chapter 85 Go, Pinocchio!

Under Queen Theana's astonished gaze—

The seemingly invincible armored robot suddenly went silent, standing motionless in place.

Its neck is covered with a large, dog-faced helmet, pierced from the inside out by dense, bright blue spikes, making it look like a blue sea urchin's head.

This is precisely one of Wang Xi's methods.

Its name is:
"Blueberry Jellyfish in Full Bloom: Armstrong Cyclone Brain Explosion Technique"

In short, it's called "Jellyfish Explosion Technique"!
Intracranial orgasm! Puppet Boy!
The greatsword in the puppet's hand clattered to the ground, its scarlet eyes dimmed, and its entire body fell straight backward.

Bang! !

With a muffled thud, dust rose up.

But Caius did not send any notification for a long time.

Clearly, this type of standard machine gun, despite its four-star rating, is not worth capturing.

Wang Xi was slightly disappointed.

It looks nice but is useless.

Not a single card dropped!
The sounds of fierce fighting in the hallway outside the door did not last long. After a loud bang and a slight tremor in the room, silence fell.

Pinocchio returned to his room as if nothing had happened.

Aside from a bit of dust, he was completely unharmed. He clapped his hands, like a good child who had just finished chores, and flashed Wang Xi a bright, toothy smile.

See, that's what you call professional.

They are both four-star mechs, but they are worlds apart.

Of course, one is a basic unit and the other is a hero unit, so comparing them side by side really lowers Pinocchio's level.

'Wait, something's not right.'

Wang Xi's eyes suddenly narrowed.

He noticed that the words above Pinocchio's head had changed at some point.

The dazzling silver patterns remain, but...

"Masterpiece: Pinocchio (Green/Five-Star)"

Pinocchio quietly gained a star!
He grew up secretly, following my lead.

It's hard to say about the spiritual aspect.

But they have indeed grown taller.

Good guy!
Wang Xi couldn't help but marvel inwardly.

'No wonder Pinocchio was able to drop a unique black card; it turns out to be a mecha with upgrade potential!'

It truly deserves the title of masterpiece!
"Gai, let's hurry and chase after Calvin, don't let him get away."

Pinocchio spoke.

Wang Xi hummed in agreement, transformed the decapitation sword back into a card, and put it away. He was about to leave with the Queen when he heard hurried footsteps and the rustling sound of armor rubbing against the ground outside.

"Quick! Move faster!"

"Lord Calvin has ordered that Her Majesty the Queen be rescued at all costs!"

"The Queen has been kidnapped and controlled by an evil sorcerer!"

"Surround this place!"

"Don't let them get away!"

"..."

Wang Xi and Pinocchio looked at each other in bewilderment.

Theina's expression was extremely unpleasant.

Clearly, Calvin had already secretly taken control of the palace, and most of the people there were his.

I really don't know who His Majesty is.

Even if the Queen were to step in and explain, it would probably be to no avail... because she is currently "controlled by the male witch," and her words and actions are not of her own volition.

"Pinocchio, you take the Queen down first."

Wang Xi thought for a moment and then said.

“Yes, Kai.” Pinocchio answered without any questioning or hesitation. With a gasp from Queen Theana, he was steadily hoisted onto her back. “Your Majesty, hold on tight!”

"It's time to take off!"

Pinocchio, carrying the Queen on his back, jumped directly from the window on the fifth floor of the tower.

"what--"

Immediately, the Queen's screams faded into the distance.

At that moment, a team of fully armed guards arrived at the scene and stormed into the Queen's boudoir with fierce expressions.

This is the fourth time tonight...

A large group of people still poured in.

Fortunately, Queen Theana had already taken off, otherwise she would probably have started cursing.

"It's Kai Farrell!"

"Where is the Queen? Where did you hide the Queen?!"

"Hand over His Majesty immediately!"

"Crimson Wizard! Prepare to die!"

The guards, armed with swords and shields, swarmed forward.

Seeing this, Wang Xi simply raised his hand and waved it.

Wow!

Water splashes.

A dozen or so sharp water-flowing knives were launched in a fan shape, landing on the group of guards with a soft thud.

Blood flowers bloom.

Five or six guards screamed and fell to the ground.

The others were terrified and quickly raised their shields to block in front of them, continuing their charge.

Don't be afraid of him!

"Charge over and get close to him!"

"He's just a male wizard, and his body is very weak!"

I?
Is your body weak?

Wang Xi wanted to shout.

But he didn't intend to physically shock the guards with his fists; that would be pointless and a waste of time.

Wang Xi spread his five fingers and lifted them upwards.

wow-

A large spray of water appeared out of thin air, swirling around him like dancing sprites. As Wang Xi clenched his fist, these sprays of water coalesced into fist-sized water spheres.

"go."

Wang Xi flung his hand away.

shhhhh--

Dense water spheres shot out like cannonballs, crashing into the crowd and exploding with loud bangs. The powerful impact left them dazed and tumbling to the ground. Wang Xi didn't even glance at them, turning around to brace himself against the windowsill and gracefully vaulting over, looking like a Dongguan local from another world—

He was as agile as a monkey, climbing and leaping between the windowsills on the outer wall. After a few falls, he landed steadily on the ground.

The leather boots had just stepped onto the stone pavement.

Wang Xi looked up and was stunned.

Pinocchio was seen protecting Queen Theana behind him, surrounded by torches that were quite dazzling.

At first glance, there were roughly forty or fifty people surrounding the area, eyeing it menacingly.

More than half of them wore armor, carried longswords, and wore emerald green cloaks with stag emblems; the prefix of their entries was "court swordsmen".

The rest were all "court sorcerers" dressed in dark blue lace robes.

These people are almost all two-star, with a small number being three-star.

'They appear to be the elite of the royal palace's defense forces.'

Wang Xi said secretly.

'This is getting a bit troublesome.'

He knew all too well that breaking through under these circumstances would not be an easy task.

Moreover, they also had to protect the Queen.

Siana is just an ordinary person and is easily injured by the aftershocks of a fight.

"Gai Farrell!"

At this moment, an elderly man with white hair, wearing a dark blue robe with gold trim, stepped out of the crowd.

His face was wrinkled, his eyes sharp, and he said in a deep voice:
"You traitor who willingly kneels at the feet of a witch, we consider you a disgrace to humanity... Hand over Her Majesty the Queen immediately, or you won't leave the palace alive tonight!"

Wang Xi looked toward the barking old dog.

"Court Sorcerer Chief Bertrand (Crimson/Four-Star)"

At the same time, this guy's entry was also entangled in bronze patterns, clearly indicating that he was an elite unit.

"Your Majesty, it seems that even the Chief Sorcerer of the Court has already joined Calvin's ranks."

Wang Xi turned his head and smiled at Xiana.

The Queen clenched her teeth and shouted:
"Bertrand! When you were at your lowest point, it was my father who took you in... and now you've become ungrateful, colluding with Calvin!"

“Your Majesty, it is not that I am ungrateful. Your words have truly saddened me.”

The old sorcerer looked dejected, and feigned concern by pounding his chest and stamping his feet. He quickly straightened his back, puffed out his chest, and shouted:

"The Queen has been mentally manipulated by that male sorcerer. As Her Majesty's trusted chief sorcerer, I swear to protect her with my life and rescue her from his clutches!"

As he spoke, the old sorcerer turned to the middle-aged man at the head of the swordsman's group and said in a deep voice:

"Your Excellency Franz, you lead the swordsmen into battle first, while I lead the sorcerers to provide support from the rear... but please do not harm Her Majesty the Queen!"

"Old man, I don't need you to give orders!"

The man named Franz had short blond hair and resolute features. He merely gave a cold snort, drew his exquisite longsword from his waist, and raised his arm to shout:
"Royal swordsmen, heed my command! Follow me to slay evil and rescue Her Majesty the Queen!"

wow-

A group of more than twenty armored swordsmen surged in from all directions, their emerald green stag cloaks fluttering in the night wind.

Wang Xi took a closer look.

"Court Swordsman Franz (Crimson/Four-Star)"

The middle-aged swordsman at the head of the group, whose entry was also surrounded by bronze patterns, belonged to the elite class.

"Pinocchio, are you confident you can handle this?"

Wang Xi asked softly.

The boy with curly black hair chuckled and patted his chest confidently.

"Leave it to me, Kai."

Having said that, he raised his right arm, grasped his right wrist with his left hand, as if setting up a cannon. At the same time, he spread his right hand, palm facing the group of swordsmen in front of him.

Seeing this familiar scene, Wang Xi couldn't help but think of the scene when he and Pinocchio faced the Weaver Girl and Medusa by the Black Lake.

However, Pinocchio was affected by the Sugar Witch Bev's debuff spell and fired a dud.

This time it's clearly different.

"Dawn roars—"

The boy shouted in a clear, crisp voice.

boom! ! !
A deafening roar followed.

A blinding flash of light appeared, followed by a ring of white smoke that was visible to the naked eye as it spread outwards.

The ground trembled, and a dust wave several meters high rose in front of them. A strong wind swept through, and amidst screams and cries, the swordsmen were thrown to the ground.

Several unlucky guys were blown into the air and then tumbled and fell like rag dolls.

Wang Xi secretly marveled at how powerful Pinocchio's cannon shot had directly killed seven or eight two-star swordsmen, and most of the others were also injured.

Before the dust had even settled, Pinocchio let out a shout and charged out on his own.

Clang!
Dangdangdang!

The swordsman Franz looked slightly disheveled, but was not injured. He was engaged in a fierce battle with Pinocchio, wielding his exquisite sword.

He seemed quite wary of the boy's iron fist, dodging as much as possible, and seizing the opportunity to counterattack with his superb swordsmanship, the sword light venomous and cunning.

But when that sharp sword, capable of severing a hair, landed on Pinocchio, it could only cut through his clothes. As it grazed his fair and smooth skin, it emitted a piercing clang and sparks.

Franz's pupils contracted involuntarily.

This boy is harder than steel!
"Your Excellency Franz, I'm here to help you."

Just then, the old sorcerer Bertrand, who was not far away, shouted.

He raised a wooden staff as tall as a man and as thick as an arm, and pointed it at the battlefield.

Bear--

A bright, blazing fireball grew larger and larger.

In the blink of an eye, it condensed to the size of a millstone half the height of a person and crashed down on Pinocchio... This momentum clearly did not distinguish between friend and foe, and also included the swordsman in the attack range.

"Bertrand! What are you doing?!"

Franz frowned and roared.

He planned to back away to avoid being burned by the high-temperature spiraling fireball. But the black-haired boy seized the opportunity to lunge forward and grab his arm.

"Hehe, don't go!"

"you?!"

The swordsman was filled with shock and anger.

He tried to break free, but found that the boy was incredibly strong, his hands gripping his forearm like iron clamps.

This guy is a tin man, but I'm not!
If he were to take a direct hit from Bertrand's powerful fireball, he would probably be roasted to a crisp on the spot!
Just as the fireball was about to hit them.

A water ball of the same size flew from a distance, collided with it in mid-air, and exploded with a bang.

The high-temperature steam surged and hissed.

Boiling water was poured over the swordsman Franz, scalding him so much that he flailing his arms and legs and screaming in pain.

In contrast, Pinocchio, drenched in boiling water, seemed completely unaffected, steaming all over his body, and even turned around and shouted:
"Thanks, Kai!"
