Chapter 398 -398-Avril, Don’t You Recognize Me?
The Security Automaton was now completely convinced by Caelan.
At the same time, it became extremely attentive, providing Caelan with thoughtful and considerate service.
After all, throughout Gamma City, any existence with profound accomplishments in mechanical creations was worthy of respect.
Moreover, the beings here naturally believed that such noble talents had all received the blessing of the God of Puppets, even if the other party belonged to another race.
"Respected sir, I believe your abilities are already comparable to those of an apprentice of His Majesty the God of Puppets."
"Even in Gamma City, you are among the most honored guests!"
Caelan nodded. His gaze, however, shifted toward Vivian beside him.
Vivian’s gaze was also fixed on Caelan.
She completely could not understand how Caelan had done it.
Even within the scope of her knowledge, aside from the God of Puppets, there was no one capable of controlling nanorobots that tiny.
However...
Caelan’s nanorobots seemed to lean more toward the biological category, because Vivian had detected cellular activity within them.
So...
Had Mr. Caelan fused technology and biology together?
That truly was a topic worthy of in-depth research!
"All right, all right. You don’t need to keep flattering me nonstop."
Caelan waved his hand, then looked at the Security Automaton and asked,
"Speaking of which, do you know who designed the mechanical bodies produced here?"
"That designer has clearly plagiarized my design. The purpose of my visit this time is to find them!"
The Security Automaton froze for a moment. Then it prepared to bring Caelan to the service center counter.
Gamma City’s protection of patents was practically carved into its very bones.
Therefore, the Security Automaton was extremely disdainful of such behavior!
"Respected sir, I am very sorry that you have encountered such a matter. I will immediately help investigate this clearly and provide you with a fair response."
Caelan, however, looked completely unconcerned.
"I do indeed need a response, but what I want even more is to personally meet this designer. What kind of joke is this? Their design is way too terrible, all right? My design is so exquisitely ingenious, but theirs? Their design is just a pile of—"
Just as Caelan was madly roasting the designer, what he failed to notice was that the Angel Maiden had, at some unknown point, quietly walked up behind him.
"Whose design are you calling a pile of garbage?"
Avril raised her brows and looked at Caelan with an unfriendly gaze.
Her body trembled slightly from anger, causing her extra-large curves to tremble along with it.
Caelan froze slightly and subconsciously turned around.
Then his gaze landed on this Angel Maiden, Avril.
However, what Caelan had not expected was that Avril’s gaze toward him was filled with unfamiliarity, as if she were looking at a complete stranger.
How strange. Had she forgotten that I was the one who rescued her?
"Who exactly are you people? Why are you looking for me?"
"And also, why have you been staring at me this whole time?"
Avril looked at Caelan with a vigilant expression, then glanced at Vivian beside him.
Faced with Avril’s questioning, Vivian smiled faintly, then stated Caelan’s request.
"Our demand is very simple. My employer has come to collect copyright fees from you."
Caelan smiled.
Originally, he had still wanted to be a little more tactful. In the end, he had not expected Vivian to say everything outright.
But since that was the case, there was nothing left to hide.
Caelan directly raised his hand and displayed his skill ability to Avril before him.
"Now you should understand, right?"
After saying this, he even deliberately raised his brows in Avril’s direction.
Avril was stunned at first. Immediately afterward, her cheeks flushed red, while her eyes filled with anger!
"You thief! You actually stole the ability of us mechanical bodies!"
"Speak! How exactly did you do it?"
For a moment, the atmosphere became incomparably tense, and Caelan himself froze directly on the spot.
No, wait. Was this some kind of joke?
How was she turning the accusation back on him?
Caelan took a deep breath. He did not want to make the situation stiff at this particular moment.
Moreover, he strongly suspected that Avril before him might not actually know the inside story.
So the problem was very likely with the lord of the Celestial Realm.
After thinking of this, Caelan decided to temporarily skip over the copyright issue and change the topic instead.
"I heard that you are a student of Gamma Academy, and also an apprentice of the God of Puppets. So, for an important figure like you, can you contact the lord of the Celestial Realm?"
Faced with Caelan’s question, Avril folded her arms across her chest. A trace of a wicked smile flashed across her cheeks.
"And why do you think I should tell you?"
"Let me remind you while I’m at it. I only came to the service center to help with repairs. I am not an employee here. Understand?"
Caelan frowned, but very quickly, he generously spread his hands and said,
"Don’t misunderstand. I won’t ask you to help for free."
"In fact, I need to find the lord of the Celestial Realm to ask a few small questions. Of course, if you are willing to help, you may put forward any demand you like!"
However, Avril only gave a cold laugh.
"Do you think that with my status, I would lack anything? Besides, I do not believe you have anything worthy of my interest."
Avril carried a faintly condescending attitude toward human awakeners, and even toward all awakeners from the World of Myriad Races.
Because in her understanding, although these people might not be weak in terms of strength, their technological level was as backward as that of primitive people.
Seeing this, Caelan on the other side simply stopped hesitating. He directly took the [Sacred Armor] out of his storage space.
Strictly speaking, this was something that belonged to the [Dark Titan].
But equipment that had been worn by the previous Chosen One should be enough to attract her attention, right?
Thinking this, Caelan pointed at his [Sacred Armor] and said,
"If you think your technology is already so amazing that it’s beyond compare, then what do you think of the craftsmanship of this [Sacred Armor]?"
On the other side, Avril merely swept her gaze over it once.
After that, her eyes could no longer move away.
Because almost in an instant, she could confirm that the [Sacred Armor] indeed came from the technology of the [Celestial Realm]. Moreover, it used a large number of techniques that had already been lost.
For the current [Celestial Realm], the value of the [Sacred Armor] was completely immeasurable!
Thinking of this, Avril’s tone instantly became much gentler.
She reluctantly moved her gaze away, then once again carefully sized up Caelan before her.
Now that she looked at him properly, this human awakener really was quite handsome!
"State your request!"
