So charming, you want me to raise Pokémon?

Chapter 308 Maya: The Aesthetics of Machinery Lies in Dramatic Modification

"Don't call me master, there are no slaves in the New Eastern Empire."

Wei Xin corrected Maya's statement, speaking with righteous indignation.

"Let's use a different name."

Magiana paused for a moment, then realized that the person in front of her had only denied the form of address, not the identity. A set of data appeared in her eyes: "Network connected. Inferring your favorite form of address based on your chat history and browser history —"

Hearing this, the others in the room turned to look and pricked up their ears. Wei Xin gasped in fright, his eyes widening, and quickly covered Mayina's mouth with his hand.

I'm afraid this tough girl will suddenly come up with some weird titles like Doctor, Commander, Captain, Traveler, Pioneer, Strategist, Knight, Lord, Onmyoji, Warlord, Torena, Admiral, Summoner, Master, Shopkeeper, Duelist, Guardian, and so on.

Unfortunately, it was to no avail.

"My mouth is merely decorative and has no other function," Magiana explained expressionlessly, her eyes suddenly lighting up. "Statistics complete. Based on your preference, I should address you as—"

"Godfather!"

"Why would he be my godfather?" Cynthia asked, puzzled. Shouldn't boys this age prefer mushy terms like "brother," "darling," "husband," or "baby"?

Do all men like being fathers?

"According to statistics from Mr. Wei Xin's past chat records, Mr. Wei Xin's friends have repeatedly called him their godfather and asked him to help carry items such as lunch deliveries, with a success rate as high as 93%," Maya said logically.

Just as Wei Xin was wiping the cold sweat from his forehead with lingering fear, thankful that he had enabled incognito browsing back then, Maya innocently added insult to injury.

"Furthermore, Mr. Wei Xin has repeatedly entered a string of numbers, 350————, in the comments section of his videos."

"Cough cough cough!!!!" Wei Xin coughed loudly, drowning out Maya's voice. His expression was complicated. He immediately gave three orders: "From now on, you are not allowed to look through my chat history or browser history, and you are not allowed to surf the Internet without my permission! Especially entertainment-related content and the comment section."

The newly awakened Magiana is as pure as a blank sheet of paper and must not be corrupted by the abstract network.

No way! A beautiful, intelligent, and dignified young lady from a respectable family would become a mindless, internet-addicted slacker spouting cheesy jokes!

Fortunately, Maya was very obedient.

"clear."

"And what should she call me?" Wei Xin stroked his chin and thought for a moment. Maya was made entirely of metal, hard and sharp, and she called him "godfather" all the time. What if she suddenly had a brain fart and grabbed the halberd and charged at him?

It made him feel very insecure.

After a brief moment of contemplation, he chose a relatively pleasant form of address: "Call me sir."

E

"Understood, sir."

"So obedient." Maya's ethereal voice filled Wei Xin with satisfaction, and he couldn't resist giving the new family member a close hug, opening his arms, "Come here, let me hug you."

"Okay," Magiana said, standing up. Two slender, sharp, cone-like metal legs shot out and, with their immense weight, pierced through the glass coffee table beneath her feet.

Magiana, who was helping the Iron Warrior repair the pipes, heard the noise and turned her head 180 degrees. She saw Magiana in front of Wei Xin lose her balance, swaying from side to side, waving her arms in the air trying to regain her balance. She exclaimed, "Get away from her quickly! It's no joke if she falls on someone!"

Wei Xin confidently spread his arms wide. Who do you think I am? No matter how heavy you are, Mayina, can you be heavier than Cai Dou, who is made of high-density muscles all over her body?

Wei Xin leaned closer. Because there was no external force, the speed of the fall was only affected by the acceleration of gravity, so Wei Xin did not notice anything wrong until he held Maya in his arms.

I felt an unexpected weight.

It felt like a small mountain was pressing down on him. His chest collided with Maya's metallic skirt, and in a daze, he heard a cracking sound, seemingly coming from his own sternum.

Gardevoir and Sylveon sensed something was wrong and quickly intervened, using their psychic powers and tentacles to wrap around Magearna's body, doing everything in their power to prevent Wei Xin from being smashed into a double screen by Magearna.

Magearna landed steadily on the ground. Gardevoir and Sylveon withdrew their psychic powers and tentacles, and the tiles on the ground were actually cracked by Magearna's footsteps.

Seeing that Wei Xin was unharmed, Old Ma Jiyana breathed a sigh of relief and scolded, "I told you it was very dangerous."

"This weight is wrong!" Wei Xin, who had just been on the verge of death, clutched his chest. Luckily, it was just his imagination and his bones weren't broken. He subconsciously asked, "The average weight of Magearna is 80.5 kilograms, which is only three Sylveon Eevee."

"Mia!" Sylveon cursed and lashed out at Wei Xin with her antennae. What did she mean by three of herself?! What kind of unit of measurement was she?

"No, the craftsmen specifically controlled our weight to 99 kilograms in order to collect the ultimate Yang energy."

"That's not right either!" Wei Xin retorted, pulling Sylveon along with its antennae into his arms, but he didn't say the four Sylveon names that were on his lips.

"Because later I added modules and extra toolkits for her and myself."

As Maya spoke, with a whoosh, countless tools appeared behind her: drills, chainsaws, crowbars—many modern metal tools of all sizes unfolded behind her and in her hands like a peacock spreading its tail feathers. At the same time, she lifted her skirt, and tools such as wrenches and hammers clanged and clattered on the tiled floor.

As a mecha girl, it's perfectly normal for her to carry tools with her, right?

"It weighs about two hundred kilograms in total."

Seeing this, Wei Xin's Mayana also followed suit and opened her own modules and toolkit.

Swish!

What weapon master?

Everyone leaned back strategically, covering their ears to block out the annoying noise, their mouths agape, speechless for a moment.

Uncontrollably, I started to wonder how Mayana managed to hide these tools inside her body, and whether a chainsaw could really be considered a repair tool.

"Don't make a fuss. We're machine girls, and our bodies are worlds apart from ordinary Pokémon," Magearna said nonchalantly. "I tinkered with this in the tomb, repairing and replacing each piece one by one. Anyway, I had over two thousand years of free time. I even added a voice module to myself. Otherwise, how do you think I talk? I don't have telepathy."

As Magearna said, although Magearna, as an artificial Pokémon, understands writing but cannot speak, who would have thought that this machine Pokémon has a highly intelligent AI, or rather, she has a soul like other living beings and can actually learn on her own.

If it weren't for adhering to the First Emperor's dying wish for thousands of years, perhaps one day they would shout that Magearna also has dreams, and then make a realistic "Pokémon League: Magearna Era".

"If you don't like it, you can let her download other voice packs, plus the built-in MP3 player, recorder, and external hard drive," she turned to the Iron Warrior, "Do you need me to install a language module for you too?"

Iron Warrior beeped twice, then shook her head. She wasn't used to speaking, and there was no need for language as a medium between her and her trainer.

"Then forget it," Magiana changed her proposal, "Do you want more weapon modules?"

Iron Warrior was silent for a moment, then beeped twice. Wei Xin understood that it meant agreement. The biggest difference between Iron Warrior and the other Pokémon in the family was that Iron Warrior had witnessed a future that no one else could imagine, just like Trunks witnessed the despair of a world without Goku. Therefore, only enough power could make her feel at ease.

"Remember to take it easy, don't mess up the Iron Warrior's program." Wei Xin respected the Iron Warrior's choice, but only gave a word of advice.

"Don't worry, artificial Pokémon have a different body structure than other Pokémon," Magearna said confidently.

"As long as the most crucial soul core is not missing or damaged, the body and everything else can be replaced at any time. As for learning, it's even simpler. Get some materials, try it out, and you can reach the level that other Pokémon and humans spend their entire lives trying to achieve. However, your Magearna doesn't have any materials installed, so you'll have to learn these skills slowly. I'll find my study notes for you in a bit."

"Do you want to learn?" Wei Xin turned to ask Maya.

"If it can help everyone better, I'm willing," Magiyana said firmly.

"Alright!" Wei Xin nodded. Who could refuse a versatile mechanical maid?

"Where's the purple iron lizard in your yard?" Magiana turned her gaze toward Millerton outside the door.

"Goo-ga?" Milerton was suddenly surprised, two question marks appearing in his eyes. He raised his paw and scratched his iron head.

"Let's forget about it," Wei Xin said. He didn't want Millerton chasing him every day asking if he had any sandwiches.

While Magiana was repairing the Iron Warrior, Wei Xin found a document among the piles of documents on the ground detailing how to cultivate the petals and stems of the Eternal Flower. After reading it, he frowned: "Magniana, can I destroy this document?"

"Can!"

She guessed that although Wei Xin wanted the Flower of Eternity, he wouldn't accept planting it.

Wei Xin broke the bamboo slip in half with his bare hands and threw it into the courtyard: "Red Lotus Armored Cavalry, breathe fire!"

The Crimson Lotus Knight closed the armor on his arms and unleashed flames.

Hua Yedi watched as the bamboo slips were engulfed by the blazing flames, turning into ashes and black smoke with a crackling sound. She put down her full-sugar milk tea, nodded silently, glanced sideways, smiled, and sighed.

The most unique thing about the flower bud is not the flower itself, but the flower in your hand, the flower of destruction. It is not destruction, but destruction. It is an ominous flower that can only be born from an extremely large number of sacrifices that can be described as annihilation.

And the more people sacrificed in this process, the more brilliantly the flower of destruction bloomed. The one in her hand was the evil karma created by the Qin Dynasty's conquest of the six states and the massacre of millions of enemies.

Inside the room, after repairing the pipes and internal structure, Magiana installed the outer shell on the Iron Warrior, completing the metal shell and applying paint as she went. She nodded in satisfaction.

"At least the appearance and basic movements are fine, and it should be at your original level."

She inserted the activated Soul Heart into the Iron Warrior's chest cavity and instructed, "However, the internal structure and pipeline setup are too simple. Even in combat, you must pay attention to the output power. At least until you replace your body, you can only activate the Soul Heart's output at most 30%. Any more than that will greatly shorten the lifespan of this body."

"As for weapons, I've added modules for carrying other plugins, as well as a flower cannon, which you should be able to use. However, other basic weapons are far less powerful than your body, so I suggest you get some more high-tech external devices."

Feeling the energy flowing through his body, the Iron Warrior stood up and stretched his stiff body.

As Magearna said, she can't use her full strength right now, but it's still better than just watching her trainer get into danger.

The moment Iron Warrior recovered, Wei Xin and Gardevoir simultaneously experienced a strange feeling. The three of them had always had a close connection, but due to Iron Warrior's physical condition, the connection had been poor. But now it was different. Iron Warrior could respond to them, and the connection between the three intersected. If any one of them had a problem, the other two could effectively make up for it and intervene.

Furthermore, the shared memories and emotions of the Iron Warrior and Gardevoir merged together, creating a strange feeling of different players sharing a single account.

"Alright, alright," seeing that the Iron Warrior's matter was settled, Huba, who had been waiting in the video for a long time, loosened his arms and said impatiently, "Now that everything is settled, hurry up and prepare for the exam."

He snapped his fingers, and the metal ring in the room instantly expanded, leading to another space: "Come in quickly, your examiners are waiting. Remember to wear your protective suits."

Everyone stood up, stretched their limbs one last time, and after confirming that their equipment was in good condition, stepped into the portal.

I witnessed an astonishing scene.
