Universal Mechanic

Chapter 486

Anna: So this is what you got from this trip? Come and have some tea.

As she spoke, Anna took out the golden crystal wrapped in special cloth and tossed it like a toy.

Noel picked up the tea and said: Hey, boss, be careful. According to the intelligence, this thing has the ability to destroy a battleship.

Anna: Don't worry, I'm confident. Besides, this crystal doesn't have much energy anymore. Normally, the lightning I use to strike you is much stronger. But this is just for decoration, so its power is not important at all.

Noel: I won't ask you what you want to do. Anyway, can I leave now? Charlotte is still waiting for me.

Anna: Do you still have a job?

Noel: But the main player is Charlotte and I am just a foil.

Anna: Is it a diplomatic job now?

Noel: It is mainly to further cooperate with the top leaders of the Universal Federation to make it easier for us to do things in the future.

Anna: You can’t say that. After all, we are helping them.

Noel: That's why Charlotte has to go to their headquarters in person. Although it won't be fully disclosed yet, the top management are aware of it.

Anna: Do you want to take this opportunity to get rid of those guys with bad intentions?

Noel shrugged and said: I don't know about that, well, it's time for me to go over.

Anna: Be careful on your way. Oh, and take this with you. I heard that the flu on a planet is quite serious recently.

After saying that, Anna threw a small bottle to Noel.

Noel looked at the shiny liquid in the small bottle and said: Is this holy water?

Anna poured tea and said: Well, remember to disinfect it well.

Noel: ...I see.

After saying that, Noel opened the space gate and rushed to Charlotte.

Anna said after she placed a new teacup on the table just after he left.

Anna: Since you’re here, why not have some tea in the long night?

Lin Changye: Let’s have a drink.

As he spoke, Lin Changye jumped down from the balcony on the second floor and sat opposite Anna.

Anna: You also feel it, right?

Lin Changye nodded and said: Yes, but I have already let Luo Yuan go. If it doesn’t work, the two of us can take action.

Anna: It probably isn’t at that stage yet, but I really can’t give this thing to them, or it’s better for me to keep it.

As she spoke, Anna knocked on the crystal on the table.

Lin Changye: So what exactly is this thing?

Anna: ...This is probably a relic of the Saint of Fate of the previous generation.

Lin Changye: You said this is the relic of Joan of Arc?

Anna: That's right, or can it be said to be the crystallization of power? If certain conditions are met, the power inside can be released. I deliberately created a world vessel for this purpose.

Lin Changye: Did you take advantage of the similarity?

Anna: Well, after all, there is a big difference between me being the saint who controls fate and Joan of Arc of fate. If I want to use this to attract this thing, I have to add fuel to the fire.

Lin Changye: So what is the use of this thing?

Anna: Change the fate of a specific area, but I don’t know what price to pay.

Lin Changye: What a good plan, but why is this thing there?

Anna: I don't know about that. Is Zhongyan here? She might know some information.

After Anna finished speaking, Zhongyan suddenly appeared behind Lin Changye.

End: I don’t know much. Joan of Arc has never met me. After all, I am protecting the Saint of the Spirit. I only heard from the Saint of the Spirit of that generation that they went together to fight a demon duke, but in the end Joan of Arc seemed to be injured and chose to retire and travel around the world.

Anna: Well, that is in line with the saint's approach. After all, apart from Yunqi who has the characteristic of serving the king and will always stay by Changye's side, the other saints are the type who cannot sit still.

End: Yes, every generation of the Holy Spirit Maiden only comes to me when she has had enough fun.

Lin Changye: Hey, hey, we are getting off topic! What are the conditions for using Anna?

Anna: The old trick can only be used when there is a world crisis. This is probably why they attacked the Qianyuan fleet. They encountered a bunch of crazy gods, so they needed the power to change their destiny. This calculation was not bad.

Lin Changye: And there is someone who can bear the side effects...it’s time for an activity that we haven’t seen for a long time.

Anna smeared Lin Changye's face with holy water and said: Oh, calm down, there will be a chance, and then you can use your murderous intent.

Lin Changye: ...I understand. But next time, please tell me before throwing the holy water.

Anna: Anyway, it is compressed by holy light and you can absorb it.

Lin Changye:…….

Meanwhile, in the federal conference room

Charlotte said as she stood in front of the podium in the center.

Charlotte: I don't deny your concerns, but at the end of the day we're not here to be your superheroes, we're just doing this for convenience.

But Ms. Charlotte, we are not helpless against unexpected situations!

Charlotte: I'm not sure about this, but since you are a big force, it would be too embarrassing if you can't even handle a small situation. Our request is very simple. Don't hinder us from doing our work. In return, we will also help you solve natural disasters and man-made disasters.

But Ms. Charlotte, we have no way of knowing the extent of the damage and how much it will cause. Under such circumstances, we really cannot easily agree.

And since you said your identity should be kept confidential, what if someone impersonates or uses your identity?

Charlotte: I can understand your concerns, Senator. The reason why we keep it secret is because our boss is the saint who controls destiny and she doesn't want anyone to bother her. Please don't be too optimistic. Even if she doesn't do it herself, it can bring about consequences beyond your imagination, the kind that even Luo Xiaoyao can't stop.

Hey, you're insulting me as soon as I get here. I didn't provoke you. I'm just here to help you.

As he spoke, Luo Xiaoyao jumped out of the space gate.

Charlotte: That's because I said I'd help you get some information next Valentine's Day, right? And I don't believe you're not prepared at all!

Luo Xiaoyao: That’s right. Don’t you think about who I am? I have prepared hundreds of alternative plans!

Charlotte: ...No wonder His Majesty said you were going crazy a while ago.

Luo Xiaoyao: Don’t compare me with that guy. I don’t know how he managed to prepare gifts for two people at the same time...

Charlotte: Your Majesty may look a little lazy now, but his IQ and EQ haven't dropped. And I'm not saying that the two of them like anything Your Majesty prepares.

Luo Xiaoyao: ...It seems so.

Noel threw playing cards to attack the two men and said:...I said you two are off topic!

Luo Xiaoyao said as he caught the playing cards and threw them back.

Luo Xiaoyao: It’s okay. This will help them understand how dangerous we are.

Noel: You don't need to release the sword, do you? Resisting is also very tiring. I'm very busy and have to go to other planets at night.

Luo Xiaoyao: I just finished dealing with some things. I was supposed to go see the boss first, but she was fighting with the Knight King, so I was probably too free.

Noel: ...What are they doing?

Luo Xiaoyao: Who knows... I finally found the things she asked me to get.

Charlotte: Did you find it?

Luo Xiaoyao: Let the divine beasts in my house come out to help, otherwise who knows when we’ll find them.

Noel: Why not just do that from the beginning?

Luo Xiaoyao: ...I haven't seen you guys for so long that I forgot these mythical beasts have grown up.

Noel: Is this something that can be forgotten?

Luo Xiaoyao: I've lived too long and accidentally remembered it wrong. Of course, I think the problem is that I was in seclusion trying to break through until a year or two ago. If I hadn't accidentally found a disciple, I would still be thinking about whether I should start over again.

Charlotte: Stop it!

Luo Xiaoyao: It's obviously very convenient. The modified version I made can convert 99.99% of the power. In theory, there will not be any loss, and you can also find out where you took a detour! The possibility of a breakthrough is greatly increased!

Charlotte: ...Take this renovation maniac away! Let's continue the meeting!

After saying that, Charlotte kicked Noel on the back, making him crash into Luo Xiaoyao.

Luo Xiaoyao opened the space door and said: ...Brother, you are really miserable.

Noel: ...Just in time to run away.

After the two of them simply slipped away.

Charlotte: Okay, everyone, please cheer up and continue the meeting! Let's start with the guys you're worried about who are impersonating or using our identities. Please open the folder next to you. There is a small gift from my companion.

After hearing Charlotte's words, thousands of congressmen present opened the folders on the table and looked at the documents inside. As they read, many of the congressmen present broke out in cold sweats, and some even almost fainted, only to be awakened by two slaps from the congressmen next to them.

Charlotte: I believe you all have seen it! We have the largest intelligence agency in the world! Anyone who wants to cause trouble will be known to us even if there is only a hint of it. It will be like this!

As soon as Charlotte finished her words, a hundred gods who were beaten half to death fell out of the space gate in the sky.

Finally, Luo Yuan yawned and walked out of another space door next to Charlotte.

Luo Yuan: Feng Ling, can't you let me have some free time so early in the morning?

Charlotte: It's nine o'clock at night here! And you'll be okay even if you don't sleep, right, Dark Nightmare?

Luo Yuan: But I’m still busy. What a bunch of garbage that I have to clean up.

Charlotte: You are so efficient! If I were here, I would definitely kill myself by accident.

Luo Yuan: That means you still have time to practice! Anyway, I'll take these rubbish away first.

After saying that, Luo Yuan opened the space door and threw these gods to a place that was obviously not accessible to living people.

Then Luo Yuan jumped down as well.

Charlotte: OK, do you have any questions? I will answer them as appropriate.

Meanwhile near Asta's house

Ashtar: Are you sure you can do it?

Luo Mengli said while inspecting the land: It's normal for an alchemist to want to refine a world, right?

Asta: ...You normal wolf cub, don't tell me you have forgotten that you blew up a volcano in order to refine the Philosopher's Stone.

Luo Mengli: Don’t worry, that was just a mistake. Now I can control my abilities freely.

As she spoke, Luo Mengli picked up a stone and squeezed it tightly. When she opened her hand again, the stone disappeared and was replaced by a red crystal less than one centimeter in size.

Luo Mengli: Equivalent exchange is the basis of alchemy, so the Philosopher's Stone can be made from any stone on the roadside, but the size cannot be determined.

Asta: What's the use of this thing? Turning stone into gold? I remember you refined the Philosopher's Stone to serve as Jingxue's body as a heart, right?

Luo Mengli: Strictly speaking, the Philosopher's Stone is a tool that makes it easier for alchemists to use alchemy. Of course, the one I used at that time used the power of heaven and earth. And in the final analysis, for someone like me who is proficient in alchemy, turning stone into gold is not difficult at all.

As she spoke, Luo Mengli casually flicked the Philosopher's Stone away. As the Philosopher's Stone shattered on the clothes, the killer turned into a golden eagle.

Luo Mengli said as she took out her weapon and pointed it at several killers who suddenly appeared.

Luo Mengli: To be honest, the security here is not very good.

Asta turned the crossbow and said: After all, this is the border, so don't force this little situation.

As they spoke, they both attacked at the same time and knocked the killer to the ground.

Asta said helplessly: Why can't you learn your lesson? Isn't it good to be alive?

Shut up heretic we will….

Before he could finish his words, a dagger pierced his throat and he died.

After dropping the body, Asta said: It looks like there is a lot of trouble.

Luo Mengli: Could it be someone from over there?

As she spoke, Luo Mengli tore off the clothes of a female killer, took a picture of the tattoo on her chest and sent it to Xi Qiling.

Luo Mengli: Xi Qiling exchanges a bottle of potion for information!

Xi Qiling: These are killers from the Night Moth Group, a bunch of unscrupulous little devils. Recently, they seem to be planning to buy a planet and become local tyrants. It seems that the Asta family has been targeted.

Luo Mengli said to Asta: Congratulations, your family is quite valuable.

Asta: ...Who did I offend? Did Xi Qiling tell me how to deal with it?

Luo Mengli: Let me see.

Xi Qiling: Don’t look at me, I’m right next to you.

After saying that, Xi Qiling walked out of the space door and checked the corpse on the ground.

Xi Qiling: A mass-produced low-level killer who can’t even frame someone.

Ashtar: If it were those fanatics, the first thing they would say would be praising God or something like that. But aren’t you busy?

Xi Qiling: I just happened to have some free time so I came here. Hmm, I guess I was planning to get rid of you two? Typical dog eyes look down on people. I was planning to teach those little devils a lesson anyway. Can you help me? I can pay for it.

Asta: All I need is supplies.

Luo Mengli: I want tickets to the black market auction.

Xi Qiling: Then come with me when the time comes. I can provide you with some supplies that can be shipped immediately.

Ashtar: Can it be saved?

Xi Qiling: There are quite a lot of canned foods. After all, except for long-distance travels, small ships basically have simple cooking equipment, and the canned foods are basically for emergency use.

Asta: Then please.

Xi Qiling: Okay, it happens that dealing with expiring products is also a hassle.

Luo Mengli: So are we going now? Fenghua's statistics haven't been completed yet, so I can go.

Xi Qiling: Then let’s go!

After saying that, Xi Qiling opened the space door and looked at a building that was on fire.

Xi Qiling:……

Luo Mengli: It’s really lively.

Asta: ...Is this a joke?

Luo Mengli: Hmm? Is it a hot joke?

Astha:…….

Xi Qiling: ... Stop being boring! This building is specially made, how could it catch fire?

Asta: ...Don't run away from reality. Only one phoenix has this true fire of the phoenix.

Feng Xiaoyu flapped her wings and flew down as if she heard Asta's words.

Xi Qiling: Xiaoyu, what on earth are you doing? Why did you set the fire before us?

Feng Xiaoyu: Because they made me upset! Really, they even dared to seize my goods. They really don’t know the rules. And why did you set fire?

Xi Qiling turned his head and looked to the other side and said: ...Compared to this, shouldn’t you be on Xiaoxing’s side?

Feng Xiaoyu sighed and said: It was originally here, but a batch of goods was seized, so I came to take a look and a fight broke out.

Xi Qiling was dumbfounded and said:...You seem to have skipped some messages.

Feng Xiaoyu waved her hand casually and said: It's all the same! Anyway, they started fighting, but it's not my fault that the fire got so big. The kid suddenly said that he wanted to die together and spilled some liquid, and it became like this.

Luo Mengli said as she scraped the liquid off Feng Xiaoyu's clothes with gloves on.

Luo Mengli: This is a flame accelerator and it’s of good quality, no wonder it’s like this, but this is a military supply, how come they have it?

Xi Qiling: Hmm... probably got it from the black market. Well, although I don't really want to save them, let's just do a favor for the Queen. Xiaoyu, please help me.

Feng Xiaoyu: Don't worry, I have already reduced the activity to the lowest level. It just looks spectacular but has no destructive effect.

Xi Qiling: Then let’s freeze under the moonlight!

After saying that, Xi Qiling released his magic and a huge blue moon phantom appeared. The scattered moonlight froze the entire building into an ice sculpture.

Xi Qiling: Okay, now let’s wait for the rescuers to arrive.
