Hanging Gardens.
Karenina grabbed the Kurono staff's clothes and shouted, "Where did you keep the commander? For a whole day! You said it was just some random data training, but he didn't eat three meals a day and didn't even send a message. What's the meaning of this?"
The staff member pushed Karenina frantically: "I, I, I don't know either! I'm not responsible for this matter, what's the point of asking me?"
Lucia asked, "Haven't you ever seen the commander coming in and out of here?"
The staff member said in panic: "I only saw him once, and he never came out again. How would I know where he is now?"
Liv quickly pulled Karenina aside and said, "Alright, Karenina, we've asked so many people, and even General Connie doesn't know. How could a small clerk possibly know? Let's go inside and ask again!"
Lucia and the other two were about to go inside when Schmidt suddenly stood in front of them and said, "Who do you think you are? You're stopping the staff and causing trouble."
Karenina looked at the man in front of her and instantly became furious. She raised her head and wanted to hit him. Liv quickly stopped Karenina: "We are just the commander's team members now. We are no different from ordinary constructs and have no rights."
Smith smiled smugly. "That's all I need to know. The Chief is in there eating, drinking, and working well. If you interrupt him like this, what will happen to his progress? It will take even longer then. Go back now and don't bother us."
After hearing what Schmidt said, Lucia and the others had no choice but to leave.
In the forest at night.
No. 21 and the others sat among the purple-red trees. We specifically looked for trees without fruits on them. There was also a clean stream next to them. I picked up a piece of cloth and spread it there. No. 21 and I sat on the ground and prepared to take a rest before heading to the suspected target location tomorrow.
After I distributed today's chocolate-filled candies, I took off my armor and lay on the rags. No. 21 and Jianon lay on me with their eyes closed and fell asleep. I touched No. 21's head and ears with my hands. No. 21 showed an expression of enjoyment and rubbed my chest.
Jianon fell asleep holding No. 21's tail, and I slowly closed my eyes and prepared to have a good night's sleep in the wild. After about two hours, No. 21 suddenly licked my face with his tongue.
I felt my face was a little damp in my hazy state, and then I saw No. 21 licking my face. I sat up helplessly and said, "No. 21, what are you doing so late at night? I haven't slept enough."
Number 21 waved his hand and said, "The Commander has something coming over."
I was still a little confused. I yawned, "Ahhhh! What the hell? Waking me up in the middle of the night."
Then several pairs of glowing eyes emerged from the surrounding jungle and stared at me closely. The ferocious look made me tremble all over.
Kanon also woke up, looked at the horrified gazes around him, and hid behind me in panic, saying, "These are those monsters, the things the captain called mutants."
I quickly put on my armor and held my knife as I watched the monsters emerge from the darkness, opening their bloody mouths and roaring at us.
Number 21 looked at the monsters and suddenly gave a detailed explanation: "The Hanging Gardens archives contain records of these monsters. The ones with four wolf legs but a sinister skull are called Heterozygous Wolfs. That lump of a thing with two arms is a common mutated Fitting Creature. The one that looks similar to what Harel described is probably a cognitive frustrate that devoured humans. What do you think? Commander 21 has memorized them all."
I was a little speechless and said, "This should all be in your database, right? There's no need to memorize it!"
No. 21 extended a modified iron claw from his sleeve. "Commander, do you need No. 21 to go all out and destroy these things?"
I became interested: "Then let's go together!"
I took the knife and rushed over in an instant, chopping off the wolf's head with one stroke. I couldn't help but feel a little excited in my heart, as I could finally exercise.
The killing began. I took advantage of the terrain of the woods to jump onto a tree, and then quickly rushed over to chop the monster down.
Except for the wolf head which was a bit difficult to chop, when I used the pulley knife to chop the bodies of the other two monsters, it felt like chopping a piece of tofu. I felt extremely refreshed and spun my body wildly while chopping at the group of monsters.
Suddenly, a monster with four limbs opened its mouth wide and swallowed me directly. The monster's mucus seemed to be corroding my armor. I directly cut open the monster's belly with a knife, and the monster's blood plasma fell from beside me like rain.
He was so happy chopping that he didn't notice Jianon, who was surrounded by several monsters under a tree. Jianon cried out in tears: "You two are too much to leave me here."
Seeing that the monster was about to touch Jianon, I rushed over quickly and cut off the monster's body in an instant. Blood sprayed all over Jianon, and then I flew down holding Jianon.
At this time, No. 21 was frantically tearing the monster's body apart with an evil smile on his face. No. 21 was emitting purple light all over his body and shuttled back and forth in the woods. Even the huge trees were directly split in half by No. 21.
Only after all the monsters were destroyed did No. 21 retract his claws, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared. Then No. 21 came back and rubbed my armor like a young wolf.
Jianon wiped the blood off his face with his hands and said in disgust, "How disgusting! I need to take a shower."
No. 21 jumped directly into the stream and soaked in the cold water, but in fact, the construct was not afraid of this problem at all.
