Chapter 223 Chikmagalurin
She boarded the ship alone. Inside the cabin was the only surviving part of Luminous, the lifeboat she lay in. Following the Neutral Star map and the ship's automatic navigation system, after about two hours, Xu Lingqu spotted the island where Master Forging Dreams resided.
The sea around the Dream Forging Master's island is black, and the sea is full of defensive weapons made by the Dream Forging Master, including large mechanical sea beasts and various particle cannons and laser cannons disguised as marine plants.
Seeing Xu Lingqu's ship approaching, the energy field barrier covering the entire island opened a small hole, and the defensive weapons automatically made way for her to pass through.
The boat docked at the shore, and Xu Lingqu dragged his lifeboat down.
No human showed up to pick her up. Instead, a mechanical dog came. It looked at Xu Lingqu with "curiosity" twice, then changed into the shape of a small car, signaling Xu Lingqu to put up the life capsule.
Xu Lingqu didn't put it up. What if this thing ran away with the life capsule?
The mechanical dog looked at Xu Lingqu "helplessly" twice, and finally turned back into a dog and lay on the ground.
After a while, a human finally appeared. He had long white hair and his skin was so white that it was almost transparent. He was wearing simple black and white clothes and walked towards Xu Lingqu.
He has a handsome face, but his skin is too pale, making him look like a sickly little white flower.
Xu Lingqu glanced at him, and finally his eyes fell on his right foot.
Although he was wearing long pants to cover it up, his ankle was still exposed, and it was clearly a mechanical foot.
"Hello, messenger of God, I am a student of Master Forging Dreams, my name is Chike." He ignored Xu Lingqu's gaze and stretched out a hand towards Xu Lingqu.
Chick? That name sounds familiar.
Xu Lingqu didn't say anything and shook hands with him coldly.
Chike smiled gently, squatted down, and petted the mechanical dog. "You can give it your things. Don't worry, if it runs away, you can still hold me captive."
After he said that, Xu Lingqu placed the life capsule on the mechanical dog, and it immediately stuck out its tongue with joy.
"Master Duanmeng has taken my senior sisters and brothers out to look for a new material. I don't know when they will be back, but it should be a matter of one or two days. If the envoy of God doesn't mind, you can stay here for two days." Qike walked beside Xu Lingqu and showed her the way.
There are many pets of the Dream Forging Master on the island, a bunch of mechanical animals. They are not affected by wind or rain, and they will not prey on each other. They run around the island full of energy every day. They do not produce excrement and do not need to be fed regularly. Apart from being a little ugly, they are simply the ceiling among pets.
A mechanical parrot landed on Chike's shoulder and turned to Xu Lingqu, chattering for a while: "Who are you? Who are you? What is your purpose? Who are you?"
Chick reached out and held its beak. "That's very rude to our guests."
He looked at Xu Lingqu beside him and said embarrassedly, "Sorry."
Chike has a very good personality. Even though Xu Lingqu has never said a word to him, he is still polite, considerate, humble and courteous to Xu Lingqu.
Xu Lingqu glanced sideways and looked at him again through the silver mask.
"You're just Chick, don't you have a last name?"
When she asked, Chike froze in place. The smile on his face faded instantly, and his smiling eyes were filled with an ambiguous emotion. He looked at Xu Lingqu intently, wanting to say something, but finally closed his mouth.
Xu Lingqu reached out and took off his silver mask, revealing his face for a moment, then put it back on. "Nice to meet you, the legendary commander of the league, Chik Meilin."
After he said his name, Xu Lingqu quickly recalled why the name sounded so familiar.
In addition, he and Tansen Meilin actually have similar eyebrows and eyes, so Xu Lingqu can basically conclude that he is Qike Meilin.
In Xu Lingqu's view, the man with the surname Meilin was not a good person, so she kept silent and continued to observe him.
Seeing his exposed mechanical feet and his deliberate refusal to reveal his last name, and even showing disgust when Xu Lingqu asked about it, Xu Lingqu took off his silver mask.
Chike stared at her blankly: "You're not dead...?"
Xu Lingqu's knife was already against his neck: "Yes, I'm not dead, and I still have a few questions to ask you."
After determining that he was Chik Merlin and had aversion to the Merlin family and that the Merlin family might treat him badly, Xu Lingqu no longer planned to hide his identity.
Chik Merlin was not a fool. If she didn't speak, he would definitely start to doubt her and start testing her. If she spoke to him, as a member of the Merlin family and the previous league commander, Xu Lingqu believed that he would definitely be able to identify who she was by her figure and voice.
Rather than being recognized by him slowly, it is better to catch him off guard and ask him some questions that he wants to know naturally.
Chike felt the sharp blade against his neck. There was no fear on his face. Instead, his eyes were gradually filled with smile and shock. "You're not dead... That's great."
As Xu Lingqu expected, he probably had no feelings towards the Merlin Family or even the Federation, yet he could actually say with such genuine emotion that it was a good thing Xu Lingqu was not dead.
However, it cannot be ruled out that he is a very good pretender. After all, he is the best commander of the league for three times. Xu Lingqu still confiscated his intelligent brain, and Chike cooperated obediently.
"What do you want to know? I can tell you everything?"
Xu Lingqu found this person quite interesting: "Do you hate the Merlin family that much?"
Compared to Tan Sen Merlin's attitude at that time, who wanted to put the word Merlin on his head, it was really strange that Qi Ke Merlin not only voluntarily gave up the surname Merlin, but also was so anxious to leak the news of the Merlin family to Xu Lingqu.
"Can you point a gun at me for a moment?" Chick winked.
Xu Lingqu retracted his knife and replaced it with a gun. Qike raised his hands and took two steps back, then bent down and completely lifted up his pants on his right leg.
From this, Xu Lingqu could also clearly see that it was not just a mechanical foot, but Chikmelo's entire leg was replaced with a mechanical prosthesis.
He didn't go to the battlefield, so how could he be injured so seriously?
Chick Merlin still kept smiling, but this time his smile was filled with sadness and self-mockery: "This is the reward given to me by the great Master Merlin."
His voice softly reached Xu Lingqu's ears: "Because he disliked my A-level mental strength, but felt that I was still quite useful, the great patriarch gave me a chance to enter the Merlin family's laboratory and participate in the experiment to improve my mental strength."
"I failed, and I'm still in A-rank, and I haven't lost a leg."
