Me! Cleaner!

Chapter 440 A stick

It seems that junior high school geometry is still valuable...

After getting off the carriage, which was only allowed in the inner courtyard of the palace, and looking at the outer wall of the palace that had been plated with a layer of iron, Lyon once again confirmed his previous judgment.

The abnormal object that caused the change should be in the palace, and its location is similar to what I calculated. It is most likely the palace in front of me.

In the squares and streets outside the palace, only "living objects" such as pedestrians and horses were affected. After entering the inner courtyard of the palace, even "dead objects" such as city walls and buildings began to turn into iron. .

Although the stone pavement under my feet still feels like stone slabs when I step on it, the floating dust and dust on the surface of the stone slabs have turned into dark brown rust marks at some point.

Although the garden in the distance is still full of green, it feels a lot less lively, and the leaves on the treetops no longer sway in the wind. Rather than a carefully constructed garden, it looks more like a giant steel-cast iron building. metal bonsai.

The biggest change was the bedroom in front of him.

The originally simple and solemn architectural style with a deep sense of history has suddenly become a lot more rounded and frivolous. Large pieces of dark red iron have appeared on the top spire, and the tall, long and exquisite exterior windows have also changed. It became short, chubby, and lost its clear edges and corners, almost becoming a completely different appearance.

This strange change is like gluing the original human palms with distinct knuckles together with some extremely strong glue, and then kneading all the bones and flesh into a round ball. There is a weird smell everywhere, which is different from the surroundings. Compared with other buildings, they seem so out of place...

"leader!"

Just as Leon touched the head of the black goat and inspected the palace with his soul vision, Joshua, who got off the carriage, quickly followed him and said with shock on his face:

"What happened? Why did the palace suddenly become like this?"

You ask me who I ask? I still want to know!

After glancing back at "Joshua" who still had slap marks on his face, Leon answered:

“Something abnormal must have been triggered.

I just looked carefully and saw no obviously abnormal soul, so the thing that caused the palace to become like this probably did not have a 'user', but an abnormal object that went berserk because it lost control. "

"Then...what should we do? Shouldn't we stop the operation?"

"Cannot abort."

With the help of the black goat's soul vision, after discovering the princess's beating soul flame in the bedroom belonging to her, Leon couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, and then stepped forward and said:

"There should be only this one chance for you guys with anomalous objects to participate in the coup. If it is stopped now, I don't know how difficult it will be to achieve this level again.

In addition, Princess Veronica is still within the scope of this anomaly. Her succession to the throne instead of the old king is the result that will cause the least damage to the entire kingdom. If something happens to her, then we have to do the worst. plan.

If that happens, even if we succeed in the end, many, many people will definitely die, and the entire kingdom will be severely damaged. It may not take two or three generations to recover, so Now I can only bite the bullet. "

"I see!"

After nodding vigorously, "Joshua" asked nervously:

"Then chief, should we protect the princess first and make sure nothing goes wrong with her, or should we knock out the guard captain first and let me control his body to distract the guards and let our people come in?"

Should we save the princess first or find the captain of the guard first?

After looking at the princess who was full of panic and fear, beating wildly with great anxiety, but still staying in the room without moving at all, Leon said decisively:

“Let’s do these two things together!

Let's split up. The situation with the princess is a bit strange. I have to go take a look first to make sure nothing happens to her.

As for Luke, you are using the prince's body now. The guard captain will not have much defense against you. In the case of a deliberate sneak attack, it is not difficult to knock him out. "

"Okay! I'll go over there right now!"

After hearing what Leon said, "Joshua" nodded, and the two of them happened to have reached the door of the palace. He took a deep breath, followed the usual appearance of the freckled prince, and walked up to the guard standing guard. His face was arrogant and he said:

"Where is your captain? I need to see him for something, take me there quickly!"

After hearing what "Joshua" said, the iron soldier who was standing guard blinked, and then, as if he had just woken up from a dream, he directly picked up the ceremonial stick in his hand and gave "Joshua" a blow with his head.

No one expected that the guards in the palace would actually attack the prince. Unprepared, the stick hit "Joshua"'s head firmly, causing him to fall down with a thud. Damn it? ! !

Confused by this unreasonable blow, Leon hurriedly pulled "Joshua" up from the ground, and found that he was knocked unconscious by the blow. Then he looked at the guard with a look of disbelief on his face. .

"No...why did you hit him?!"

"Your Majesty the Prince!"

Facing Leon's angry questioning, the guard holding the ceremonial stick saluted hurriedly, then blinked his glass eyes, and said with a puzzled look on his iron face:

"He is a civilian, and he is still wearing the clothes of a criminal. If he approaches the palace rashly like this, he will definitely be beaten out!"

This is obviously Joshua's body, what are you talking about?

Leon couldn't help but frown when he heard this, but just when he was about to say something, he suddenly remembered something.

Luke and himself, who have taken over Joshua's body, are both possessors of abnormal objects with "impregnation value", so they can not be affected by the cognition, and still have the senses of normal people, and can distinguish between humans and the Tin Woodman.

Even when looking at one's own body, what one sees in one's sight is completely normal. If one does not touch one's own body, one would not even notice that one has become the Tin Woodman. It is normal to look at each other.

As for Joshua... Although he didn't have any abnormal objects, he went to the headquarters of the Cleanup Bureau and saw a lot of abnormal objects. After that trip alone, he probably had a few tenths of dip value on his body, and he also had some The ability to distinguish between iron sheets and humans.

But the tin soldier in front of him was different.

Since these ordinary people who were affected by the abnormal objects and thought they were Tin Woodmen did not show any doubts when they saw themselves, it proved that in their eyes, they and Joshua were probably Tin Woodmen.

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

This kind of mutual observation among the tin men does not seem to be based on the physical body. Their senses and judgment methods seem to be more inclined to the level of the soul, or things like identity, status, and profession.

Therefore, although Luke occupied Joshua's body, in the eyes of the Iron Guards, he was not Prince Joshua, but a "civilian criminal close to the palace", so he would not hesitate to raise his hand and strike him with a stick. .

This is really troublesome...

Looking at Luke who lost consciousness after being hit by the stick and automatically separated from Joshua's soul, Leon couldn't help but sigh, and then reached out and pinched Joshua's middle hard.

"ah!"

After shouting unconsciously, Joshua, who had fainted, suddenly sat up. The iron guard next to him rubbed his eyes, and then said with a shocked face:

"Your Highness? 伱...you just clearly still..."

"ah!!!!"

A scream sounded from high in the sky, interrupting the Iron Guard's words.

A tin doll wearing a bright red dress screamed and fell from the outer window of the palace, hitting the ground in the distance with a thud, which really shocked Leon.

"What?"

"Reply to His Excellency the Prince."

After hearing Leon's question, the iron guard blinked his empty glass eyes, and then replied with a respectful expression:

"If you are asking who the person who fell just now is... it should be Her Majesty the Queen."

“…”

"ah?"
