105: Son of the Wild Beast Spirit, I’ll give you half of the credit!

For a moment, Beruke grew even warier of Roen.

However, Roen still didn't answer his question.

Seeing this, Beruke didn't press further.

After all, being ignored by him repeatedly, Beruke had already gotten used to it.

However, what Roen did next took him by surprise.

"You want me to take off my mask and see who I am?"

At this, Roen looked up at Beruke and let out a soft chuckle.

"Then, as you wish."

Immediately, Roen, without a word, reached out and removed his mask.

His speed was so fast that Beruke, Pete, and the others didn't even react.

"Huh?"

At that moment, when the three of them—Beruke, Pete, and the rest—saw Roen's true face, they were all stunned.

"Damn it, are you messing with me again? There's another mask under the mask?"

When Pete saw the alchemy construct's metal face, he blurted out.

Hearing this, Beruke's mouth twitched, and he said, somewhat speechless.

"No, Pete, that's not a mask, that's... a mechanical alchemy construct!"

Beruke recognized the identity of Roen's alchemy construct at a glance.

So, Pete also reacted, suddenly realizing.

"So, the needles on your face and shoulders..."

At this moment, Roen placed two Blast Bombs.

From his left and right pockets, he inserted them into the ammunition depots on both sides of the alchemy construct's abdomen.

Besides the Blast Bombs, the dazzling bombs, poison gas bombs, and sonic bombs from before had all been pre-positioned by Roen in various hollow parts of the alchemy construct's body.

Although the alchemy construct's inherent combat power was only at the initial stage of the Apprentice Knight realm.

However, with these alchemy constructs added, even a Just Knight would have to give way.

"Now, can we talk in private?"

The alchemy construct Roen said to Beruke, the metal plate on its mouth trembling slightly.

Hearing this, Beruke took a deep breath, then nodded at Roen.

"Alright, please follow me."

At this point, Beruke completely reined in his arrogance.

He first told Clay and the other person to take the temporarily blinded people back for treatment.

Then, he led Roen to his office, which was a simple study.

Now, only Beruke and Roen were in the room—if an alchemy construct counted as a person.

The two sat down, and Beruke pondered for a moment before speaking.

"This... sir."

Beruke was very cautious, asking tentatively.

"May I ask, how did you know I was from the Sloan family?"

Hearing Roen, beneath the stiff, expressionless metal face of the alchemy construct, a playful chuckle filled with mockery emerged.

"Oh? Why did you change the question? Why aren't you still asking who I am?"

Beruke's mouth twitched, and he looked at Roen, somewhat speechless.

He was now certain that this alchemy construct was indeed a lunatic.

Otherwise, he had asked so many times before, and the other party refused to answer.

Now that he wasn't asking, the other party started again?

Seeing the alchemy construct remain silent, Beruke could only swallow his anger and ask submissively.

"Then, who exactly are you?"

At this moment, Roen in the restaurant couldn't help but curve his lips into a smile.

Following the pre-written script, he recited his lines.

"My name is Uz, perhaps you haven't heard of me."

"But it doesn't matter, you must know who my father is."

At this point, the alchemy construct stood up.

It assumed an arrogant posture, looking down at Beruke.

"Your father?"

Beruke was a bit puzzled, but when he remembered that the person in front of him was an alchemy construct.

Suddenly, his heart stirred, and he thought of a possibility.

"alchemy construct... mechanical alchemy construct... could it be?"

Before Beruke could speak, he heard the alchemy construct proudly announce its lineage.

"My father is the great Five-Ring Mage, and also the noble Fifth-Tier Alchemist—Uld!"

Uld!

Hearing this name, even though Beruke had anticipated it, his body still trembled.

"So, the Wild Beast Spirit is your father?"

Beruke said Uld's nickname, filled with awe.

The alchemy construct was very satisfied to see Beruke's attitude change drastically, becoming incredibly subservient.

And in Beruke's heart, his reason for acting this way was half pretense.

The other half, however, came from his genuine sincerity!

Because this Uld was no ordinary Alchemist.

He specialized in the creation of beast-type alchemy constructs, capable of integrating magical beasts with mechanisms and performing multi-threaded control.

In other words, Uld could simultaneously operate two or more magical beast alchemy constructs to engage in battle with enemies.

Coupled with his own strength as a formidable Five-Ring Mage, his overall combat power was extremely strong.

Among the numerous powerhouses at the Thieves' Guild headquarters in Windwhisper Plains.

Most believed Uld to be among the most top-tier Fifth-Tier powerhouses.

Beruke had also heard some rumors, claiming that Beruke had even trapped and killed a Sixth-Tier Sky Knight.

Of course, he had only heard this by hearsay, and its veracity was unknown.

However, there was one thing he knew for certain was true.

That was, Uld had once fought three opponents alone and killed all of them.

And the realm of those three opponents was all Fifth-Tier Earth Knights!

It was because of this battle that it was passed down by word of mouth.

This then led to Uld being given the nickname Wild Beast Spirit based on his combat characteristics.

"Respected Mr. Uz, what happened earlier was all a misunderstanding."

"I, Beruke, on behalf of all members of the branch, welcome your arrival..."

Beruke's expression became solemn, and he quickly bowed to Roen.

Although he was also a "second-generation thief," he was still somewhat inferior compared to Uz.

Therefore, he was initially arrogant but then respectful, and his attitude immediately became humble.

Roen controlled the alchemy construct, letting out a hearty laugh.

He then reached out and helped Beruke up, patting him on the shoulder and saying.

"No need to be so polite, I came here secretly this time, and I still need your help."

Hearing this, Beruke's heart immediately stirred.

Immediately, he quickly put on an enthusiastic and generous demeanor and said.

"Oh? May I ask what Mr. Uz needs help with?"

At this, the alchemy construct turned and came to Beruke's side.

Despite its face being devoid of any expression, the slight tilt of its head clearly made one feel as if it was smiling.

"I want to cooperate with you to jointly manage this branch."

"..."

At these words, the smile on Beruke's face slowly froze.

He then looked at the alchemy construct with some astonishment, saying in great confusion.

"Excuse me, I don't think I heard you clearly, what did you just say?"

The alchemy construct stared at him with a "smile" and said, enunciating each word.

"I want half of the credit for establishing this branch, have you heard clearly now?"
