Although the judgment was made, the doubts in Leo's heart did not decrease, but in fact became more, because in the time cases of the Earth Federation, without exception, time was passing forward, and in no case was it going backwards.

But Peter Alcott's situation is like when he was a child, he entered the world of Velen sixty years ago, then spent some time with the owner of the villa at No. 9 Golden Oak Street, and then moved to the present sixty years later.

, appeared in Miria City.

In other words, time is like a toy that can be adjusted at will to Peter Alcott, but the interesting thing is that Peter Alcott who appears in other worlds is in a child state and has no adult state.

"Could it be that becoming an adult will make him lose his abilities?" Leo suddenly guessed in his mind.

"You shouldn't be here, noble lady! But it doesn't matter, we will keep you safe."

A burst of noise came from not far away, waking Leo from his thoughts. He looked towards the place where the sound came from. He saw a group of low-class people living in the slums surrounding a woman wearing a nun's uniform, stretching out her hands to pull her.

Pulling, it looked like he wanted to drag her to the house made of wooden planks and gravel aside.

"It's her!" With such an obvious outfit, Leo could easily identify who she was, and he could vaguely guess why she appeared here. However, he had no intention of taking action, and was instead very interested.

Look at this scene not far away.

At this moment, the surrounded maid turned around in the group of low-class people as if dancing, and then the group of low-class people fell to the ground in pieces like cut straw.

This scene was witnessed by the surrounding bystanders. They all fled away in panic, and a large open space immediately opened up around the maid.

The maid ignored the broken corpses on the ground. She walked like a nimble cat, carefully avoiding the broken pieces and blood on the ground as if she were walking in a garden avoiding flowers, and walked towards Leo.

come over.

To ordinary people, this maid just turned around in the crowd, but in Leo's eyes, this woman fired at least seventeen swords during the circle, and it took less than two seconds. The most peculiar thing is

It was her sword hidden in her arm.

At this time, Leo also realized that it was inappropriate to call this maid by her, and it was more appropriate to call her because this maid was not a real human being, but a psychic puppet.

Among the psykers of the Earth Federation, there is a type of psyker who can use certain techniques to combine their psionic power with some intelligent robots to make up for their own lack of strength, and can do so without increasing their psionic level.

By continuously upgrading the equipment of intelligent robots, thereby improving their own strength in disguise, this type of psyker is called a puppet master, or a puppeteer.

This type of psyker is a rare type of psyker. There are less than ten such psykers in the history of the Earth Federation. One of the two most famous puppet masters controls a certain mechanical Death Star.

The master brain of the alien planet controlled the entire planet, including the aliens on it who were connected to the master brain using brain chips, and became the master of this alien planet. The other one discovered a seed spacecraft of an ancient cosmic civilization and controlled

This spacecraft created a new cosmic civilization on the edge of the spiral arm of the Milky Way.

The maid in front of me is obviously a psychic puppet created and controlled by the puppet master. When we were in the villa before, because the attention was not on the maid, and the puppet was too well made, even the accessory brain system was destroyed.

It was a lie, so Leo never noticed anything unusual.

It wasn't until the moment the maid took action, a crack opened in her elbow and wrist, and four nearly transparent long swords stretched out, that Leo realized there was something wrong with the maid's body. Later, through the investigation of the mental network

, discovering that the maid is actually a puppet that is almost the same as a real person.

Although Leo used the mental net to detect every detail of the maid's body structure, including the positions of small parts such as screws, gears and springs in her body, and could also use the accessory brain system to perfectly restore it, he still felt

Even if I imitate the original, I'm afraid I won't be able to make an identical puppet.

Because there were so many counterintuitive arrangements in the puppet's body, he didn't even understand the composition and operation of the puppet's shell, let alone how the puppet's core power system worked. The only thing he figured out was

One thing is that the Earth Federation's knowledge of mechanical engineering cannot be used on this kind of psychic puppet.

Just when Leo was analyzing the psychic puppet in front of him through his secondary brain, the maid had already walked up to Leo, like a real person, and said coldly: "Master wants to see you, please come with me."

After saying that, without waiting for Leo to respond, he turned around and walked back, but Leo only hesitated for a moment before following him.

Just after Leo and the maid left, the poor people hiding in the shanties cautiously poked their heads out and looked outside. After confirming that there was no danger, they ran out of hiding and rushed to the broken corpses, turning over the corpses.

, looking for the belongings left behind by those people.

Not long after, city guards came here. They dispersed the people gathered around the corpse and casually asked about the situation. When they heard that the matter involved the noble's maid, they stopped asking any more.

, he directly restrained the body, turned around and left, as if nothing had happened.

At the same time, the maid led Leo to District 11, which is close to the aristocratic city.

District 11 is a derivative of the aristocratic city. The vine platforms that build the city are extended from the aristocratic city. This is also one of the largest districts in the outer city. Originally, it was only used to house aristocratic servants and their families.

In the urban area, some powerless descendants of nobles later established various handicraft workshops here to manufacture some daily necessities specifically for the nobles. Now many nobles have built their own factories and shops here, which has made this place

became extremely prosperous.

However, after the maid brought Leo to this city, she didn't seem to have any intention of taking him to the most prosperous area of ​​the city. Instead, she took him to a building close to the bridge at the entrance to the noble district, and came to a building on the ground floor platform next to the

Inside the cabin on the lake.

Outside the hut, some guards dedicated to the noble area surrounded the place and did not allow anyone to approach. Some metal mesh wizard objects were hung in the rooms of the hut. These strange objects can produce interference fields.

, making it impossible for people to peek into the house.

After the maid opened the door, she led Leo in. At this time, Peter Alcott was already sitting next to a heater in the hut. Compared to just now, his clothes looked much more casual at this moment, and more importantly, he

Her dressing style is very French, and some obvious parts of her clothes are embroidered with the national emblem of the French Empire.

"Do we know each other?" After Leo came in, Peter Alcott suddenly asked without any warning, and while asking, his eyes were always fixed on Leo's expression, trying to see what was on Leo's face.

What clue is coming?

"I don't know." However, Peter Alcott was destined to be disappointed. When Leo answered, his expression was very calm, and there was nothing worthy of scrutiny.

"Don't you know?" Peter Alcott did not show a disappointed look. He pondered for a moment, shook his head slightly, and said: "No, I'm sure we must know each other... No, it's not right to say we know each other, we should.

We have met before, we must have met before, and you must have left a deep impression on me, so I have an obvious sense of familiarity when I see you."

Leo walked to the chair opposite Peter Alcott and sat down. He did not show any low-profile behavior because of the other person's identity. He said calmly: "Maybe you were deceived by your own feelings."

Peter Alcott ignored Leo's words, but looked at Leo carefully, and suddenly said in a confused way: "Your clothes are very special."

"Same for you." Leo responded.

Peter Alcott looked down at the clothes he was wearing, then looked at Leo, and asked with a quick thinking: "Have you ever had a dream?"

"Of course." Leo nodded.

"Then do you remember what happened in your dream?" Peter Alcott asked again.

Leo responded calmly: "Some remember, some don't."

Peter Alcott nodded as if he was satisfied with Leo's answer, and then continued: "I had many dreams when I was a child. I dreamed that I went to countless magical dream worlds, and encountered some interesting things there.

, but after I woke up, I didn’t remember anything. Until the day I became an adult..." At this point, he suddenly paused, and a look of fear flashed across his face, but he quickly returned to normal and continued.

: "I began to gradually recall the things I experienced in my childhood dreams. Those things were extremely magical, but also very real. I couldn't help but doubt that the world in those dreams was real. For this reason, everyone in the family tried to kill me.

As a madman, do you think I am a madman?"

"There is often only a fine line between genius and madness." Leo did not answer directly, but said tactfully.

"An interesting thing to say, you are much smarter than other people. Only smart people can understand the thoughts of smart people, and only smart people can be friends with smart people." Peter Alcott changed his lazy attitude and said

He moved away from the back of the chair, sat up straight, and leaned forward slightly. He took the initiative to reach out to Leo and introduced himself: "Peter Alcott, a genius who is regarded as a madman."

Leo looked at Peter Alcott, smiled, shook the extended hand, and introduced himself: "Leo Dodd, a curious traveler."

"Maria, make us a cup of succulent water, using the fruits just picked from the garden two days ago." Peter Alcott ordered the maid and asked Leo: "Would you like to add some insect honey? There is no toast.

The roasted fresh Sugu soaked in water is a little bitter and a little sour, and people who drink it for the first time may not be used to it."

"No, just leave it like that!" Leo shook his head and said.

After receiving Leo's answer, the maid turned and walked out of the hut, leaving only Leo and Peter Alcott.

"Just letting your maid and protector leave like this, aren't you worried about your own danger?" Leo watched the maid walk out of the room, and suddenly looked at Peter Alcott with malice in his eyes, and sneered:

"You have to know that we are so close now, it would be a very simple thing for me to kill you."

"I'm sure you wouldn't do that," said Peter Alcott, smiling.

Leo raised his eyebrows habitually and said, "You are so sure that I won't do anything."

"I just trust my intuition." Peter Alcott smiled confidently: "My intuition tells me that you are not a threat to me, and it also tells me that we can become collaborators. I believe that my intuition will not

Something went wrong.”

"Accurate intuition, stupid approach." Leo said bluntly.

"Haha, you are not the first one to say this." Peter Alcott admired Leo's casual attitude very much and seemed very happy. He smiled and said: "You know the last person said this to me?

Who is the person who said this sentence?"

"Who is it?" Although Leo was not interested in this matter, he still followed the other person's words and asked.

"First Chief." After Peter Alcott finished his answer, he looked at Leo expectantly, hoping to see some interesting expressions in Leo's always dull expression.

However, he was destined to be disappointed. Leo's reaction was just a nod, as if in his eyes the first chief of the Wizards Association was just like an ordinary person everywhere.

Peter Alcott was slightly disappointed and confused, and then asked: "I heard from the old butler that you have a pair of very good weapons. Can you take a look?"

Leo nodded and took off the king and queen again, but this time he didn't hand them to each other, but put them on the table.

The unique and exquisite shape of the firearm immediately caught Peter Alcott's attention. He wanted to reach out and take a look at the pair of psychic weapons in his hands, but found that the weight of the pair of weapons was far beyond the

It's hard to imagine, let alone his poor health now, even if he was in good health, he probably wouldn't be able to pick up these weapons.

Although he could not pick up the weapon, he still showed no interest in it. He took out a crystal ball-like object from his pocket, placed it on a bracket, moved it next to the king and queen, and reached out to scan the crystal ball.

Then, the crystal ball immediately bloomed with dazzling light, illuminating the room and clearly illuminating the king and queen.

Just as Peter Alcott was admiring the king and queen up close, Leo's attention also fell on the luminous crystal ball that Peter Alcott took out.
