Women only affect my ability to spread the fire

However, when he thought that the mastermind behind these mechanical puppets was still watching him from behind, Russell stood there proudly.

Russell stood still and straight, facing these mechanical puppets in silence, like a victor inspecting his spoils.

Perhaps Russell's pretense worked, and the island became peaceful again. No second wave of mechanical puppets came to harass the Cornflower.

…………

"Hmm? What happened? Today, there are more loopholes in the patrol routes of the mechanical puppets in this mansion, making it much easier to sneak in. Is it a trap? Have they changed the patrol routes?"

The gray-haired old man was full of doubts.

"No, I can't act rashly until I figure out what's going on."

In the end, the old man gave up on cracking the mechanism today.

"I've been trapped for so many years, this day won't make a difference. But once I'm discovered and the mechanism is changed, all my previous efforts will be in vain."

Having made up his mind, the old man bowed politely to the painting in the room and said, "See you tomorrow, beautiful lady."

The elegant old gentleman seemed to be saying goodbye to an old friend with whom he had been accompanying for many years.

The girl in the painting always maintains her eternal smile, does not respond to the old gentleman's greeting, and silently watches the old gentleman leave quietly.

…………

At the same time, Russell and his three companions also made new discoveries.

Russell was surprised to find that the material that made up the bodies of these mechanical puppets was the same as the long sword of the Demon Centurion he had seized before.

This discovery completely destroyed Russell's previous suspicion that there were no demons on the island.

Come to think of it, after destroying the source of fog, the cunning demon centurion was still able to disguise himself as his own butler. If there is a more advanced cunning demon on this island, then it should not be difficult for it to walk in the sun.

With so many high-level materials, perhaps only higher-level demons can possess them.

Tsk, now the trump card is almost exposed under the nose of that devil.

Thinking of this, Russell smacked his lips unhappily.

What made Russell even more regretful was that this cunning demon did not send low-level demons that could provide souls to test him, but instead sent these mechanical puppets. As a result, after destroying these mechanical puppets, Russell was unable to absorb more souls.

But Russell was not completely without gain.

At least, these mechanical puppets gave Margaret and Rosaline a lot of inspiration, and they are now enthusiastically studying the structure and principles of mechanical puppets.

Russell also gained a lot of inspiration from the mechanical puppet. After examining the part of the mechanical puppet that was cut by the sword energy, Russell found the melted and deformed part.

In other words, although Russell could not melt the metal by directly heating it with flames, the high temperature generated by his sword energy could actually melt the metal.

Since this was a metal used by demons that neither Margaret nor Rosaline had ever seen before, Russell decided to name it Demon Steel.

Regarding the smelting of magic steel, Margaret offered her own opinion: "The heat of flames always diffuses in all directions. If we could just use a magic circle to concentrate all of your flames, so that they only heat a specific area, would we be able to smelt the magic steel?"

After Rosalin modified the magic circle several times, Margaret's guess was confirmed.

"Great, that's great. These magic steels are enough to make three sets of full body armor, and there will be some left after making weapons for you. What kind of weapons do you want?" Russell asked with great interest.

Ever since Russell gained a lot of forging knowledge from Flame, he has been eager to try it out, but unfortunately there has never been a suitable opportunity - when he was on Saint Margaret Island, steel weapons and armor were almost useless, so Russell did not choose those materials.

Now that these mechanical puppets have been destroyed, Russell finally has enough materials.

In addition, the technical difficulties in smelting magic steel have been overcome, which makes Russell eager to try and even impatient.

Russell already had a complete plan. He planned to first build three sets of magic steel armor, and then remake the hilt and scabbard of the sword with magic steel - the transitional steel scabbard that Russell had used before was already in danger of being pierced by the sharp blade.

Next, we need to create weapons for Margaret and Rosaline.

As for the remaining magic steel, Russell planned to melt it into magic steel ingots and store them.

Russell simply regarded the demon who sent out the mechanical puppet as the transport captain, and he almost couldn't help singing praises for the demon.

"My Lord, I shall wield the sword like you." Margaret said with a smile, "I am glad to fight alongside you."

Margaret's choice didn't surprise Russell, but her next request was a bit novel: "But I hope you can engrave some magic circles on the hilt of the sword, so that I can also use them to cast some simple spells."

A one-handed sword that can release magic can be used to catch the enemy off guard in many situations and is a good choice.

Russell agreed and then turned to Rosaline.

Rosalyn frowned, as if she was thinking about something. She scratched her sky-blue hair and began to write and draw.

Then Rosalyn was not satisfied with what she had drawn. She scratched her hair in annoyance, crumpled the paper into a ball, and threw it into the sea through the porthole.

Russell took a quick glance at the piece of paper before Rosalyn crumpled it up. It was a weapon with a complex structure and a strange shape.

It seems that Rosalyn wants more than just a simple staff.

After crumpling up several pieces of paper with a bitter face, Rosalyn finally drew the staff she wanted.

Then she proudly handed the design of the "staff" she designed to Russell. When Russell took it and looked at it, he was dumbfounded.

069 Weapon Test

Because the thing Rosalyn drew was not only complex in structure, but also assembled from many parts. It could be seen that she got a lot of inspiration from the previous mechanical puppets.

This "staff" looks thin at the top and thick at the bottom, with an opening facing forward and many buttons that can be pressed.

Russell felt that rather than insisting that it was a staff, it would be more like a musical instrument such as a saxophone.

"Uh, Rosalyn, are you sure this is your instrument - uh, I mean weapon?" Russell almost let it slip.

Rosalyn didn't pay much attention to Russell's words. She nodded and said, "Yes, I got inspiration from musical instruments."

So Rosalyn began to share her ideas seriously.

"You see, I said before that when I could still control the Eye of Truth, using hand gestures to release magic was like plucking the strings of a musical instrument."

"When I confirmed that I could no longer use the Eye of Truth, I kept thinking about how I could use the magic circle to regain control of magic. Gradually, I came up with this idea."

Rosalyn pointed to the narrow opening at the very top.

"Look, I input the 'divine fire' from here to feed it energy."

Then she pointed toward the large opening facing forward.

"After being amplified by the entire weapon, the powerful spell is finally launched from this location, effectively killing the enemy."

After explaining the basic principles, Rosalyn began to point to the buttons.

"These buttons are engraved with various relatively basic magic circles, but when I combine a series of magic circles, I can unleash a lot of magic!"

"Just like you said, it's exactly the same as playing a musical instrument. One spell can correspond to a set of fingerings and a melody."

Rosalyn spoke with great enthusiasm and concentration, and she didn't even realize that a confident smile was on her lips.

"Even though I can only release a small amount of magic now, I'm already very satisfied that I've found a new way to drive magic so quickly."

Rosalyn concluded.

Russell quipped, "You're so proficient in magic circles and these magic runes, and you actually said before that you rely entirely on intuition to use magic? You're just being modest!"

Rosalyn scratched her sky-blue hair sheepishly. "Hehe, actually, before I lost the Eye of Truth, I had no idea what the point of learning magic runes and magic circles was. It was just that my uncle forced me to memorize them all. Now, I have to thank my uncle very much. After two days of intensive application of magic circles, I finally understand many of the principles of magic."

Rosalyn didn't look like a frustrated person who had lost her magic at all. Instead, she looked as happy as a child who had discovered a new toy.

She began to share her experience incessantly, her expression full of joy.

Russell felt that Rosalyn was extremely charming at such a moment, and her whole body seemed to be shining.

Is this a talented player? Russell almost wanted to use his mouth to stuff Rosalyn's lovely lips, which were still bursting with inspiration like a machine gun.

The knowledgeable Margaret listened with shining eyes as Rosaline shared many magical principles. She had a pen and paper in her hand, and was using shorthand to write down what Rosaline said.

Margaret was also very skillful in sometimes agreeing and sometimes asking questions full of curiosity.

Margaret's questions are often just right and can touch Rosaline's heart, which always fully arouses Rosaline's desire to share and discuss.

Is this what a serious top student looks like? No wonder Margaret was hired as a naturalist by the Natural History Department of Canos University at such a young age.

Russell thought with some amusement.

So Russell quietly took the sketch drawn by Margaret and left, leaving the genius magical girl and the serious top student to discuss it enthusiastically.

Russell prepared to start working on making a set of weapons for each of them first.

As for their subsequent ideas for improvement, they will wait until they have accumulated experience in subsequent actual combat and then slowly adjust them.

Russell first moved the remains of the mechanical puppets into the forging room, and then began to inject flames into Rosaline's improved heating array.

The flames, after being restrained and amplified by the magic circle, had an extremely high temperature and quickly melted the debris that Russell placed on the magic circle into liquid.

…………

"Thank you very much for your gift. It is very useful, my Lord. Especially since this magic steel is light and tough enough."

After practicing a set of sword techniques with Russell on the deck of the Cornflower, Margaret smiled brightly, made a sword flower, put away the sword, and then bowed to Russell earnestly to express her gratitude.

"As long as you find it convenient for you." Russell nodded with a smile, and put his sword with a remade hilt back on his waist.

Then, Russell looked at Rosalyn, who was fiddling with her strange-looking staff like a musical instrument. "What do you think, Rosalyn?"

Rosalyn pressed several buttons in a certain order as if she were playing a musical instrument, and then a beam of fire came out from the end of the staff and hit a seabird.

The seabird didn't have time to let out a wail before it fell straight from the sky and hit the deck with a thud. Its body exuded the aroma of roasted meat.

Russell noticed that Rosaline's flames were still the orange-red color they had when they first met, and had not yet "upgraded" to the same orange-yellow color as Margaret's.

As for how to "upgrade", Russell already has the answer.

However, Rosalyn had no intention of disdaining the weak flame. Her elegant face was filled with an ecstatic smile: "Excellent, thank you!"

Then Rosaline continued to fiddle with the "staff" excitedly, just like a child who had gotten a new toy.

Rosalyn's nimble fingers seemed to be dancing, causing the buttons on the staff to rise and fall.

From time to time, spells came out of the staff. Rosalyn became more and more excited, with a joyful smile on her face.

It was obvious that Rosalyn was in a very good mood after regaining the ability to cast magic.

This joy naturally infected Russell and Margaret, and they both smiled as they watched Rosaline cast magic wantonly.

When Rosalyn was a little tired, Russell pointed to a place on the staff and said, "Look here, this pick is the lock of the button. As long as you open it, you can easily remove and replace the buttons."

"If you want to add any magic circle buttons in the future, just tell me and I'll build them for you. You can then replace them manually."

"That's great, thank you so much!" Rosalyn handed the wand to Margaret, then cheered and threw herself into Russell's arms, giving him a passionate kiss.

Russell thought that Margaret had been convinced by his encouragement last night, so he naturally hugged Rosaline and responded passionately.

Margaret subconsciously took the "staff", then she looked at the two people kissing passionately, and the corners of her upturned mouth froze.

Rosaline, that cunning woman! She actually chose such a good time! I was the one who tested the weapon first! Why didn't I think of taking this opportunity to flatter my Lord?

Margaret thought unhappily.

What Margaret didn't want to admit was that she was still a little frightened by Russell's violent criticism yesterday, so she subconsciously chose to bow.

By this time, Rosalyn was completely absorbed in the passionate kiss.

Rosalyn closed her eyes and let Russell's tongue conquer her mouth. She hugged Russell's neck tightly with both hands and responded passively.

Rosalyn felt dizzy and her whole body was floating, as if she was walking on the clouds.

Russell noticed that Rosalyn began to subconsciously rub herself gently with her thighs.

It was obvious that Rosalyn's body was ready, and this was her signal to Russell that she wanted sex.

So Russell picked up Rosalyn and held her sideways. Rosalyn snuggled in Russell's arms, her head resting on his chest, her face full of intoxication.

Russell strode into the cabin.

Humph, don't try to get rid of me!

Margaret was about to catch up with him, grumbling, when Rosalyn seemed to have thought of something. She timidly whispered to Russell, "No, the island is not safe."

At the same time, Rosalyn also glanced at Margaret secretly.
