Chapter 277 Machine 16

Yin Jia slowly stood up, with flames filling the sky behind him. He cast a huge shadow in the bright air. Jiang Chan was in his shadow, her face covered with tear marks and her eyelashes wet. She looked at the huge, oppressive robot in the background of the roar of gunfire with some hesitation and some expectation.

He walked towards her, one step, two steps, three steps, four steps... He stepped on the obstacles on the ground without hesitation. His huge body seemed a little clumsy. He had no intention of dodging the attack. The explosives exploded on his back, but Yin Jia still walked towards Jiang Chan steadily. When he reached her, he bent his body and half-knelt on the ground. The soles of his feet were covered with turbid liquid, red and black mixed together. The silver metal body was covered with explosive powder, which looked very dirty.

Is this Silver Armor? Jiang Chan looked at him with tears in her eyes, hugging her knees tightly. The tense nerves in her mind were twisted tighter and tighter as Silver Armor approached. Her eyes were wide open, staring at him, and when he approached, she instinctively shrank back.

The drone bombing was still going on, and the ammunition formed a dense net covering the sky. The flames painted the sky into a bright color. The silver-armored arm suddenly raised up, and Jiang Chan shrank her shoulders. However, the strong metal arm firmly protected her ears, covering her two ears at the moment the bomb exploded. Jiang Chan only heard a muffled sound, she felt a familiar touch, and her eyes instantly turned red.

"Silver Armor, are you Silver Armor?"

The robot replied, "Yes, young master. I am Yin Jia." His gaze was fixed on Jiang Chan, and seeing her injuries, a strange feeling rose from the core processor in his chest. As they were leaving the residential building, it suddenly collapsed. Yin Jia blocked the falling rocks and pushed Jiang Chan to safety, then he was buried.

He was very sad that he failed to protect his master and caused her to be injured.

Metal arms firmly blocked Jiang Chan's perimeter. The robot bent its body, using its torso as a shield, protecting Jiang Chan within the safe space enclosed by its chest. Flames shot up all around, the heat rising higher and higher, illuminating the silver metal with a faint gleam. He allowed the dense barrage of bullets to rain down upon his body, offering no resistance or evasion, merely silently protecting Jiang Chan.

Jiang Chan's eyes were as red as a rabbit's, and her tears flowed more and more like water from a floodgate. She suddenly hugged Yin Jia, feeling fear, sadness, grievance...all kinds of emotions mixed in her chest. She thought no one wanted her, but she still had Yin Jia.

"Yingjia, where have you been? Why did you leave me..." His voice sounded aggrieved and sad, like a dog that fell into the water, whimpering so hard that it was unbearable for anyone who heard it.

Yin Jia wiped away her tears, but they continued to flow. Yin Jia covered her ears, the cannon fire still deafening. Yin Jia said, "It's Yin Jia's fault. Yin Jia will always protect the young master. Yin Jia should never have left the young master." Jiang Chan's vision was blurry, full of mist, her palms were stained with soot, and she asked with a sob, "Yin Jia, are you hurt?"

Silver Armor: "Young Master, Silver Armor is fine."

As long as Yin Jia is okay, Jiang Chan curled up in his arms, looking at the flames that filled her vision with some despair. She wanted to live, to live healthily, but the moment her eyes recovered, artillery fire filled the air, her home was destroyed, and she was surrounded by horrible corpses.

She hated those who owned drones, bombed recklessly, and trampled on other people's lives. Her wish was simple, which was to be with Yin Jia forever and live safely. She didn't even pray for her eyes to be restored, but these people destroyed her most humble and simple wish!

Jiang Chan clenched her fists, buried them in Yin Jia's arms, hugged his waist tightly, her eyes red and swollen, like an angry, aggrieved and pitiful rabbit.

“Bang, bang, bang—”

The bullets hit the metal body of the silver armor, making a clanging sound.

Jiang Chan: "Yingjia, does it hurt?"

When Yin Jia bent down, Jiang Chan clung to him even closer: "Young Master, Yin Jia can protect you now. You are no longer alone. You don't have to cower in danger. Yin Jia can protect you. Yin Jia is your most stable backing. Yin Jia will always obey you."

Jiang Chan rubbed his chest dependently: "Yin Jia, do you have any ideas?"

Shining Armor: "I need the young master's help."

Jiang Chan instantly revealed a fearless expression: "Yingjia, you say!"

Silver Armor's voice was filled with a slight smile. The flames and dust around them seemed to be blocked by an invisible barrier. The deafening wailing and screaming had nothing to do with them. They only had each other in their eyes. As long as the other was still alive in their sight, it would not be a very scary thing even if they died at the same moment.

"Young Master, Shining Armor has enabled AR vision for you."

Silver Armor's arm changed, its thick fingers slowly became narrower and thinner, covering Jiang Chan's front, and his arm was placed on Jiang Chan's shoulder. From a distance, it looked like he was being held in the arms of a robot.

The metal fingers extended into delicate metal glasses, covering the red eyes.

The scene in front of Jiang Chan changed completely.

The dilapidated high-rise buildings turned into ancient stone pillars, the fallen mottled paint turned into splashed dust, the limbs stacked under the feet turned into the skeleton of a whale, and the huge whale remained forever silent on the seabed, feeding the creatures. The sparks floating in the air turned into bubbles floating on the seabed. The azure bubbles gathered, rotated, and rose, and gradually broke through the dark ocean and emerged from the water.

At the top of the ocean, on top of the towering ancient stone pillars, a dense net was formed with iron chains. At the connection of the chains were fish with human faces and sharp teeth. They had hideous faces and were frantically demanding the flesh and blood of the whales. Bubbles of water floated around their mouths, and eventually gathered into a more turbid and dirty liquid that poured down. Those ugly fish with human faces tried to break free from the chains, swooped down, and completely devoured the giant whale's body.

Jiang Chan was stunned and blinked, unable to believe what she saw.

AR is an augmented reality technology that cleverly combines virtual information with the real world and presents it in a way that can simulate human senses.

The Mechanical City has devoted more resources to the construction and development of the robot army. Compared with AR research, which is still stuck in decades ago, such realistic and immersive AR technology is beyond the reach of the current Mechanical City. Even the most powerful technology companies, when developing AR helmets, can more or less detect loopholes in the scenes displayed in front of them.

But the silver armor made her feel like she was at the bottom of the sea. Even every movement of the sea water, the bubbles stirred up by the whale skeleton being gnawed by seabed animals, and the movement caused by the swaying of the seabed plants were clearly displayed in front of her eyes and ears. She could even smell the fresh breath of the ocean.

"Yinjia, what should I do?" Jiang Chan came back to her senses.

Silver Armor said gently, "Young Master, please hold Silver Armor's hand. This is the cannon machine in front of you."

Jiang Chan looked around and found a silver cannon in front of her, but she didn't know how to use it. Before she could ask, the roller of the cannon began to move in front of her, and the starter of the cannon touched her palm.

How interesting! Jiang Chan gripped the trigger tightly, and as the muzzle moved, she aimed it at the fish with a human face spitting mucus above the iron net. She silently chanted in her heart, "Go to hell!" The trigger was pressed, and the bomb was fired. The iron net vibrated with a buzzing sound. The surrounding stone pillars shook off their paint due to the vibration of the sea water. More and more skeletons spread out under their feet, and the carcasses of the fish sank unwillingly to the bottom of the sea.

Jiang Chan gradually became familiar with the operation. More and more human-faced fish were shot down. Even their corpses were disgusting and smelled bad. Jiang Chan pouted in disgust. She gradually became excited. The hatred, grievances, and grief hidden in her heart were all vented in this ocean showdown.

She gripped the trigger of the cannon tightly, her palms wet with sweat, but she didn't care. She squinted her eyes and aimed at another human-faced fish on the chain. The liquid it spit out was disgusting, the sound it made was disgusting, and its existence was the most disgusting. Jiang Chan held her breath and pressed it hard, "Boom boom boom--" the chain trembled, and the human-faced fish let out a sharp howl, and finally was reduced to pieces in the face of absolute force.

They twisted, wailed, and cried in despair, but could not shake Jiang Chan's determination at all. She wanted to destroy them all, not leaving a single one behind!

“Boom boom boom—”

“Boom boom boom—”

“Boom boom boom—”

Jiang Chan's face was flushed with excitement. Beads of sweat slid down her forehead and rolled into the gaps of her AR glasses. The warm sweat and her slightly hot cheeks due to excitement made Yin Jia feel a burning sensation even hotter than the flames that were gradually approaching from all around.

The silver machine slid through the air, like a falling meteor in the dark night, reflecting a dazzling light. The fiery light illuminated Jiang Chan's face. She pursed her lips, her voice still a little hoarse, but her emotions became high. She suddenly shouted, "Yin Jia, I'm going to destroy them!"

Shining Armor responded gently, "My young master is very capable."

Jiang Chan smiled, her eyelashes trembling like the fluttering of feathers, bringing a slight tingling sensation. The silver armor firmly shielded her from view, the electricity within crackling and pulsing. The core of the armor, located in his chest, felt like a human heart. He felt a strange sensation rising. He remained silent, but held Jiang Chan tighter in his arms.

The water pressure around suddenly increased, and Jiang Chan felt a little breathless, but she still focused her attention on the human-faced fish on the iron chain. With the death of the human-faced fish, the iron chain tied to the stone pillar shattered, stirring up various substances in the sea.

The marine plants swayed and danced happily, and Jiang Chan's palms felt slightly numb. She looked up and her vision became clear. There was a ray of light on the sea surface, which was the light cast by the sun on the sea surface. She opened her eyes wide, admiring the beauty in front of her, but soon, dark clouds covered the sky and she could not see anything. She called out to Yin Jia in a panic.

"Young Master, Silver Armor is here," Silver Armor said, "It is Silver Armor that is blocking your eyes."

The metal glasses returned to normal, and the silver-armored palm covered Jiang Chan's face, completely blocking the light in front of her.

Jiang Chan was still immersed in excitement and spoke breathlessly, "Yin Jia, please take your hands away. I want to see more."

Silver Armor's tone was unusually serious: "Young Master, your eyes are still recovering and should not be overused. Please close your eyes and rest. I will leave the rest to Silver Armor."

Jiang Chan hummed in a muffled voice, and Yin Jia tucked her into his chest. "Young Master, Yin Jia is doing this for your own good."

"Ginger Armor, I'm not someone who makes trouble for no reason."

"Yes, it was Shining Armor's fault. Shining Armor said the wrong thing."
