"Oh?"

"When I was exploring the surrounding waters before, I did not find any traces of sirens, but I had more time to look, and finally I increased the scope of the search, and then... I saw a team of mass-produced sirens The siren is coming towards this mirrored sea."

"Purifier...? How strong is that fleet?"

"Very weak, just a few iron-blooded ship girls can deal with them."

"Hiss...then this is a bit strange..."

Hearing Hegner's words, Leon began to be confused again. The worst plan he made before was that this place was a siren trap. They deliberately released smoke bombs to let the Sardinian Empire's ship wife bring him here. ,but...

If the other party really wanted to do this, then they would not have sent such a weak fleet to this mirrored sea area, and...the Purifiers even came here later than they did, which is not in line with the Sirens at all. style of doing things.

Could it be that... this mirror sea was not created by sirens at all! ?

Thinking of this, Leon suddenly had a guess in his heart. Before, Black Helena told herself that everyone's real enemy is that kind of unknown giant beast. That kind of giant beast has already invaded many worlds, but the other party is with The mental Rubik's Cube also comes from high-dimensional creatures. Even if they want to come here, they must first find the coordinates.

Could it be... this tower is the coordinates they set up! ?

The inadvertent thought in Leon's heart made him sweat instantly, if this kind of thing that even the siren can't defeat came here...

Then they are going to send it! ?

For some reason, Leon felt that this reason seemed to be the only solution that could explain the status quo. The purpose of the Sirens coming here should also be to pull down the tower.

But...there is a loophole in this guess, if the Sirens knew the danger of this tower...then why did they send such a weak fleet?

"Leon, are you okay?"

While thinking about these questions, the expression on Leon's face was also gloomy and scary. Seeing this, Hegner stretched out his hand and patted Leon's shoulder with a worried face.

"No...I'm fine, but...we may really encounter a big problem this time, by the way, when you were sent out to fight...have you ever seen a tower similar to that tower? thing?"

"That tower... sorry, Leon, you should know what kind of situation I was in the past, the memories related to that time... I can't recall it now, if I can get close As for the tower... I may recall something about it."

Answering Leon's question with a wry smile, Hegner could only helplessly shake his head at Leon at this time. The original Rubik's Cube of her mind was almost completely blackened, and her mind suffered a lot of wear and tear. If it weren't for Bismarck The appearance of Leon and Leon's ability...

Then she might really become a monster who only knows how to fight now.

"That's it... Forget it, we can only wait until we get in to solve these problems. You have done a good job in the sea area exploration. Now... you should go back and rest first."

Since Hegner couldn't remember, Leon didn't intend to ask her too much about this question. He reached out and patted Hegner's shoulder, and Leon signaled that she could go back to rest now.

"I get it, but... you also need to relax a bit. Tensing your nerves for a long time will make your body collapse. You are the backbone of everyone, and the person who can't have any accidents... is You are right."

Turning around and taking a few steps forward, Hegner finally turned around to comfort Leon. She likes this new home very much, and she doesn't want to see the iron-blooded leader bedridden because of overwork.

"Well, I'll pay attention."

He smiled at Hegner with a smile on his face, and Leon waved his hand again to show that he had no problem. Seeing this, Hegner walked away from here.

"Whoo~"

After watching Hegenai leave, Leon leaned his back against the railing and let out a long sigh. If... that tower is really the coordinates set up by the enemy...

Then what should I do?

As for the Sirens...will this change their long-standing course of action?

......

After lunch.

The action of entering the mirror sea area will be carried out in one hour. At this time, the builder has almost finished analyzing the distant sea area. Now...

Leon was making final preparations in his room.

The command knife given to him by Ling Min before can protect him in critical moments, and the cloak given to him by Akashi can also avoid damage to a certain extent. Coupled with the doll of Black Helena and the cloak of Heishan, Leon suddenly felt another It's a lot more practical.

If the worst happens, then at least there are these META girls participating in the battle on his side.

"Boom boom boom!"

Just when Leon was thinking about these things, a knock on the door suddenly rang out, and after tidying up the clothes on the bed, Leon came to the door and opened the door.

"Huh? Is that you?"

As soon as he opened the door, Leon saw Trieste with short magenta hair, until the short hair on the cheeks covered half of Trieste's face, but her exposed eyes were showing a slight smile at the moment looking at Leon.

"It's me, Lord Leon, can I go in and have a chat with you?"

Still dressed as when they met in the morning, looking at the smiling Trieste, Leon finally turned sideways to let her into the room.

"What do you want to talk to me about?"

After pouring a glass of water for Trieste, Leon sat on the opposite side of the sofa and looked at the Sardinian girl with her legs crossed. He didn't think he had anything to talk about with Trieste now, unless The other party wants to discuss that mirror sea area with himself.

And... for some reason, Leon always felt that Trieste sitting in front of him had a strong sense of disobedience, but he couldn't tell where this disobedience came from. produced.

Just listen to what the other person has to say.

"Of course it's the mirror sea area, Your Excellency Leon, actually... about that sea area, I have some private information that I want to share with you."

Return to Iron and Blood, Satin Style: Chapter 354 Allies and Emotions

"Private information...? Then why didn't you tell it in front of everyone?"

Trieste's words and deeds became even weirder in Leon's eyes. Suddenly, he thought of something he had experienced before.

The Trieste in front of my eyes...couldn't be changed by the observer! ?

"I think... Telling you about this matter alone is the best choice I can make, Your Excellency Leon, or...Your Excellency Leon, do you think my information is dispensable?"

Seemingly seeing through Leon's thoughts, the observer pretended to be Trieste and had no intention of pretending any longer. He looked at Leon playfully, observed and then stretched out his hand to caress his own cheek front armor.

"...Don't pretend, Observer, you can't handle this kind of figure."

"Oh~ I was discovered by you... On the way to your room, I also ran into Prince Eugen and the others. I think my disguise is perfect, and even the ship girls can't see the strangeness of me. .”

At this time, the Observer still has no plans to change back to its original appearance. She chose to become Trieste because Leon had been peeping at him before.I have to say that this kind of proud figure is really attractive. Even though Leon already knew that he was an observer, he was still looking at him straight now.

"Huh~ Forget it, I won't talk to you about this anymore, why do you come to me again in leisure?"

Looking at the observer who kept fiddled with his front armor, Leon finally decided not to look at the white waves in the room, turned his head to the side, and then Leon asked the observer with disdain. said a word.

"Of course I came to seek your cooperation. You should have discovered how abnormal this so-called mirror sea is?"

Seeing that Leon looked away, the observer got up and sat next to Leon again, and then she stretched out her hand and pressed Leon's head on her front armor.

"Hey! What are you doing!?"

The sudden softness made Leon almost indulge in it, and he pushed the observer away with both hands, and then Leon put his gaze back on the observer.

"Nothing, I just want to pay a little in advance for our cooperation. If you want... I can also become a company~"

"Don't push yourself! Observer, if you don't want to be bombarded by Gneisenau... I advise you to talk about the business first."

"Okay, okay~ I know~ But, you should be the one who pushes the boundaries, right? If we hadn't released the water a few times ago...you don't know where you would be now~ Speaking of which, where is the builder? ? Why didn't I see her?"

Shrugging indifferently, the observer then looked at the watch in Leon's hand. She knew exactly what happened to the builder, and Leon's ability to regenerate the builder in this way also showed that ...

Their guess was correct.

"She is analyzing that sea area, so she can't come out to see you."

Looking at the eyes of the observer, Leon also touched his watch subconsciously. Time is running short, and now Leon can only let the builder use all his strength to deconstruct the sea area. Therefore, the builder Now it is impossible to get distracted and change back to the original.

"Hehe~ It looks like you haven't built what the builder needs most~ But this matter shouldn't be too difficult for you. Now... let's talk about the tower."

Seeing that the builder couldn't come out now, the observer didn't ask too much about this matter, and raised his legs again, and the observer said to Leon with a serious face: "After my speculation, the tower ...He actually put it here."

"He...? You mean... the unknown giant beast you encountered before?"

"Yes, Helena should have told you about these things. Let's not mention what happened before, but now... we must pay attention to the things in front of us."

This is the first time Leon has seen the Observer show such a serious look. Although she still maintains the appearance of Trieste, Leon can still clearly feel the Observer's attitude.

"Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

After pondering for a while, Leon finally asked straight to the point, something that can make observers so cautious, Leon felt that he should also make a corresponding awareness on his side.

"It's very simple, I want you to...absorb that tower."

"Huh? Absorbed the tower!?"

The observer's words made Leon unable to understand for a while, that tower...it doesn't look like something that can be absorbed! ?

"You misunderstood me. The tower is just a container, a kind of channel, and the energy stored in the tower is the most critical existence. What I want you to absorb is the energy stored in that tower. If the energy is absorbed, then He will not find our world so easily."

"...It's easy to say, but how do I absorb the energy in the tower?"

The observer's words made Leon become silent again. This kind of illusory thing can't be done just by talking...

"I don't know, but... haven't you experienced similar things before? It's like you help the ship girl repair the ship outfit or build the ship girl. After all, I don't know you very well What about the abilities of these high-dimensional creatures~”

After all, the observer sighed helplessly again, if she really knew how to stimulate Leon's ability, then she would have snatched Leon over and let him work.

"High-dimensional creatures... After all, how did you discover my existence?"

"Of course it's as simple as discovering this tower~ After all, this is our ultimate goal. Your appearance disrupted our plan. Of course, this also allowed us to find a solution to the problem."

Don't know if going down this road will end it all, but...

That's all they can do now.

"...I know, when the time comes...I will find a way to get close to that tower, but...what is the Purifier doing this time?"

Now that the observers have said so, Leon can only bite the bullet and give it a try now, but...the observers have decided to let themselves find a way to absorb the energy of that tower, so they also send purifiers What are you doing here?

"Oh, that's the rhetoric I prepared for you. At that time, you will definitely need some reasons to fight. This time...you can use the Purifier as cannon fodder at will. She won't die so easily anyway. Drop. Besides, I collected some information from this sea area, I think... this kind of tower should not be the only time, and in the future... there will definitely be more similar situations."

"...Is it really okay for you to say that to your companion? Does she know about it?"

For some reason, Leon felt that the observer's black belly didn't seem to be aimed at himself alone, but... although it was black belly, it should be a matter of course in the eyes of the observer...

Just like the previous builder.

Sirens are different from Jianniang, they will only act according to the optimal solution to solve things, and they will not hesitate because of emotional problems. Although doing so can indeed quickly find the best solution to the problem, but...

Now that he has this ability, Leon feels...then the sirens don't need to do this anymore, their own ability is the optimal solution, and they don't need to do various experiments as before.

"Of course she knows. Not only that, but she has already made up her mind to bury this carrier machine. You should be leaving soon, right? I think...the Purifier should also lead the fleet to ambush."

The Sirens don't need to rest. While Leon and the others are resting, the fleet led by the Purifier should have finished exploring the sea area. Now... everyone just needs to draw a perfect end to this scene together.

"I see, then we will eliminate those sirens step by step at that time. At that time... I will tell Hegneisenau that this is the mirror sea area you are building. In this way... everyone You won’t know anything about him.”

About him, Leon still plans not to tell everyone as Black Helena said, after all...the enemy he has been fighting with for a long time is actually a "good person" or something...

Leon felt that it might be difficult for everyone to accept for a while.

Unless his strength matures or his invasion is unstoppable, otherwise... Leon decided to continue acting with the siren first.

"You are a smart person, I like you and the feeling of cooperation, but... Now that we have a relationship of interest, then... I can give you a piece of advice."

"advice?"

Seeing the serious look on the observer's face again, Leon tensed his nerves and listened carefully.

"Yes, this is a very important piece of advice. It has a lot to do with your marriage ships. You should be very familiar with planning ships. Those ship girls are very adaptable to the Black Rubik's Cube. The Black Rubik's Cube You should know that it is the result of meta, but... this is not the final result."

"Not the end result?"

"Yes, the Gneisenau you saw before was just drifting away on the road of blackening. If you have seen the real blackened and completely blackened META ship girl, then you know that META is a What kind of result."

"However, you don't have to worry about your wedding ship becoming like that now. The Rubik's Cube has two extreme results. One is the meta-ization you see now, and the other... is that we have been The way to find it is to activate the mental Rubik's Cube."

"Activate...?"

What the observer said was vague to Leon. He was also confused when Black Helena introduced these things to him last time. Seeing that Leon didn't understand what he meant, the observer stopped talking.

"Of course, these things have to be the content of our exploration together in the future. This has nothing to do with the advice I want to give you today. What I want to say is... the planning ship can't completely ignore the influence of the Black Rubik's Cube, if not Because of your existence...then Bismarck and those Iron-Blooded Fleet Girls might not be able to live in this world as beautifully as they do now."

"Then you mean..."

"This tower has only appeared near the Sardinian Empire. There is no similar thing in other places. I think... bad things may have happened in the Sardinian Empire. Even I can imitate it." Trieste came to you swaggeringly, so...he should be able to do similar things easily."

This is what observers are most worried about. If He really came to this world, then...

They have to do everything possible to protect Leon.

"Hiss... Hearing what you said, I now think of a strange thing. Zara told me before that Marco Polo of the Sardinian Empire would sit alone in the gazebo in the garden every night and mutter to himself. language, could it be..."

Thinking of this, Leon couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat again. Marco Polo must have been controlled by that monster! ?

Since he can use the mental Rubik's Cube to construct a ship girl, then...he must not have similar abilities! ?
