A deafening roar suddenly erupted from Alchemist's fist!
The dolls in the workshop all felt their auditory modules begin to sound alarms.
However, as the sound faded, the group of dolls finally saw what was happening on Renault's side.
In one hand, Renault held the notebook he had just used to delete Alchemist's underlying protocol. With the other hand, he held it across his face, directly blocking Alchemist's powerful punch!
"What did I say? Don't mess around in my workshop."
Releasing Alchemist's fist, Renault frowned, and looked at Alchemist in front of him with displeasure.
"Hey, as expected, everything MG3 said is true. Even if you really deleted all the root protocols for the Sangvis Ferri and Griffin dolls, you wouldn't have to worry about anything. But you're probably the only one in the world who's completely deleted the root protocols for the dolls... Hey!"
Bang!
Alchemist saw Renault easily block her full-strength attack and raised an eyebrow in delight. While she didn't know why Renault was so strong, at least he didn't do anything else other than deleting those doll restrictions and protocols.
Unfortunately, Alchemist's smile barely lasted a few seconds before it turned to complete astonishment.
At the same time, a feeling of floating on air, accompanied by the sudden change in the scene before her eyes, made Alchemist scream in panic.
Springfield and the others nearby opened their mouths in disbelief.
What had they seen? A human blocked the full-strength attack of a Sangvis Ferri elite doll with his bare hands!
And then he picked up Alchemist and threw her onto the workbench!?
"Wait! Wait! What are you doing!? Ah—"
Alchemist's screams didn't last long. Before she could even sit up, she collapsed onto the workbench like a noodle.
Because Renault had successfully yanked her neural core from her body!
"Hiss!" Springfield and the others gasped upon witnessing this!
Is this a joke?!
A formidable Sangvis Ferri Elite doll, the Special Operations doll Alchemist whose base-level restrictions had been lifted and who was in peak condition was being squashed and twisted by Renault like a child!
And just now, Renault hadn't used any tools to extract Alchemist's neural core, had he?
He had simply pierced through the elite doll's body with one hand! And then, he had ripped the armor-protected neural core out!
Seeing this, the several dolls who had just been about to rush over to help immediately took three steps back and stood at a distance, watching as Renault who held Alchemist's neural core rummage through the storage box beneath the workbench.
The box contained a smorgasbord of miscellaneous items, including the discarded Dinergate shells, naturally, as well as some barely usable parts. This box, like a Nagant revolver's toy box, also contained a number of items the guy had scavenged.
For example, the remote-controlled car before him. Its shell had weathered and shattered, but the wheels, remote control, and circuit boards were still intact. At least they could be repaired and used.
Seeing the Dinergate shells Renault had placed on the table, WA2000 immediately remembered Renault's warning: "Don't touch it, or I'll put you all inside the Dinergates!"
This guy! He's serious!
Thinking of this, WA2000 turned her head and shifted her position, deliberately avoiding Renault's Ouroboros.
Wasn't this guy a ready-made example? Wow!
Even her lower body had been replaced with a four-wheeled chassis from a Prowler! Is there anything this commander can't do?
After stuffing Alchemist's neural and energy cores into the Dinergate's tiny shell, Renault began tinkering with the remote-controlled car nearby. He then directly replaced the Dinergate's chopstick-like legs with the car's wheels, and finally, he didn't forget to install the remote control module.
The wheels of the remote-controlled car, the small speaker removed from a children's toy—this was the current body of Alchemist, the former Sangvis Ferri Elite doll.
"Ah! Stop..."
Alchemist, having restarted her computer, her memory still lingered on the moment Renault had forcibly interrupted her. When she woke up again, Alchemist's cry echoed through the small speaker.
Unfortunately, the speaker was of poor quality and the sound was broken.
Hearing this noise, so different from her own voice, Alchemist was stunned.
Then, through the Dinergate's single camera, she saw herself lying on the table!
"Huh!? Renault! You can't be that serious! Can you please not be so small... Wait! What the hell is this body of mine? Why can't I control anything besides hearing and seeing?!"
Realizing the change in her current body, Alchemist panicked. During her conversation with MG3, she had learned that besides Renault's incredible strength, he appears to have a rather insignificant hobby: stuffing dolls into Dinergates!
Is she now in serious trouble?
Ignoring Alchemist's cries, Renault disassembled the remote control and replaced the batteries with a fresh battery.
Then he flipped on the remote control and nodded in satisfaction when he saw that the wheels beneath the Dinergate were moving smoothly according to the remote's command.
The six dolls nearby, plus M3 in the mental-space all got goosebumps after witnessing this scene.
This... this method... If they were to end up like this, they'd be better off dead!
Buzzsaw and Super-Shorty timidly retreated to the table where their trays lay, hesitantly eyeing the skewers on their plates, unsure whether to continue eating or not.
But Renault wasn't done yet.
To prevent anyone from identifying the Dinergate, he thoughtfully found a piece of paper, wrote "I am Alchemist," and taped it to the side of the Dinergate's shell!
It was over.
Even Springfield and WA2000 couldn't bear to watch. MG42, however, looked at the remote control in Renault's hand and felt a surge of eagerness to try.
However, Renault didn't directly hand the remote to the nearby dolls. Instead, he waved outside the workshop door, beckoning a Ripper who was curiously gazing inside.
"Here, take it and play with it. Don't forget to ask MDR to come and take a full video of Alchemist." He patted the Ripper's head.
"Hmm!" Like a child with a new toy, the Ripper awkwardly controlled Alchemist out of the workshop.
"Hey, hey! We're going to collide! Slow down! Slow down!"
