Cheng Huaijin remained outwardly calm, but his heart was in turmoil.
What?! Mechanical beasts are created by combining machines and pet beasts?! What's the point of doing that? Is it to turn pet beasts into emotionless tools that only know how to obey commands?
But that doesn't make sense either. Let's not even talk about the complex mechanical beasts. There are many mechanical beasts that exist only for a single function, like the mechanical beast I saw at the pet supermarket that could enlarge and shrink pets... No matter how you look at it, there's a bug in that.
Could this so-called No. 01 be trying to fool me?
More importantly, why should I tell her something so important?
Number 01 said sarcastically, "However, she did give me a clue. Since we can transfer the abilities of pets to mechanical beasts, what if we could transfer human abilities to robots?"
Cheng Huaijin had a bad feeling: "You want to turn people into robots?"
Number 01 laughed and said, "Yes. What's so good about being human? What's so bad about being a robot? Robots don't get sick or suffer. As long as the chip exists, they can change bodies at will! Their minds are free, so why be trapped in this flesh and blood?"
Cheng Huaijin sneered inwardly, having already seen through Number 01's outward strength but inner weakness.
The chip for No. 01 is definitely inside this handheld console, but it can't move and can only stay inside it. Even moving requires the help of other robots. Based on No. 01's previous ramblings, Cheng Huaijin reasonably guessed that No. 01 might have been a human before, who was turned into a "robot" after being experimented on.
However, judging from his current extreme state, he has not obtained the freedom he wanted at all.
So he wants everyone to perish like him!
However, he lacked sufficient ability, so he could only lure these naive young beast tamers over.
...The above is Cheng Huaijin's speculation.
Number 01 took out a small remote control and said with a smile, "I invited Miss Cheng here mainly because of the mechanical tiger beast."
Cheng Huaijin slowly backed away and said cautiously, "I don't know anything about mechanical tiger beasts. I'm here to retrieve the antidote."
Number 01 feigned sudden realization: "Oh right, I almost forgot about that." He suddenly pressed a button on Cheng Huaijin's head, and Cheng Huaijin felt as if he had been electrocuted, his legs went weak, and he knelt on the ground.
What are you doing!
On the electronic screen number 01 was a laughing face: "Hahahaha. Miss Cheng, it doesn't matter if you don't know the Mechanical Tiger Beast, it knows you, that's enough. Only you can awaken it, that's why I invited you here."
"You invited me? I'm just a middle school student, what use is it for you to invite me!" Cheng Huaijin trembled all over, Chao Huan in her arms had already slumped down, and she pulled her into her wrist mark, "What did you do to Chao Huan?!"
Number 01 pressed the remote control again and saw Cheng Huaijin tremble and collapse to the ground, unable to get up. He said gently, "Don't be nervous. I won't hurt the pets. Pets are just like us, pitiful creatures who suffer from human cruelty. I feel sorry for them." As he said this, he even pretended to wipe the "electronic tears" off the screen.
"I'll let you go as long as Miss Cheng can hand over the mechanical tiger beast's chip to me."
Cheng Huaijin felt as if all his strength had been drained away, leaving him unable to move, with only his mind racing.
Damn it, after listening for so long, I still can't figure out why this madman is targeting me! Now I can only take it one step at a time, and figure out where this path leads first!
“Okay, I promise you,” Cheng Huaijin said, struggling to her feet. “But I have absolutely no strength right now. How can I get the mechanical tiger beast’s chip for you?”
Number 01 seemed quite satisfied with Cheng Huaijin's cooperative attitude: "You'll have the energy again soon." After saying that, he pressed the button again, and before Cheng Huaijin could speak, everything went black.
When she opened her eyes again, she found herself in a familiar place.
"Cheng Huaijin! Tell me, how many times has this happened this month?" A familiar nurse looked at Cheng Huaijin angrily, her tone full of disappointment.
"Huh?" Cheng Huaijin opened his eyes on the hospital bed, looking confused.
"I think you've gone mad from the fever!" The nurse's tone softened, and she sighed, "I really don't understand you. Sigh! Rest first, I'll come see you again later."
Who are you?
Cheng Huaijin opened his mouth, but couldn't bring himself to ask the question.
She thought she must know this nurse, but...
Who are you?
She had something on the tip of her tongue, but she just couldn't remember it!
Seeing her contorted face, the nurse shook her head, tucked her in, and left with a pile of documents.
Cheng Huaijin summoned Chaohuan and held Chaohuan's soft little body, as if regaining some of her rationality. Holding Chaohuan, she got out of bed to look at the name on her hospital bed.
[Bed: Number 1]
Name: Cheng Huaijin
It's me, Cheng Huaijin.
Cheng Huaijin exhaled, feeling a sense of relief that he himself was unaware of.
Since Chao Huan exists, then she must be in the Beast Taming World.
The world of beast taming—what other worlds are there besides the world of beast taming? That's right! She transmigrated here. Before the world of beast taming, she came from an ordinary city in the 20th century, a typical office worker. In that city, her parents died early, but she still had a best friend from her school days…
"ah!!!!!"
A scream came from outside the door; it was the nurse who had spoken to her earlier.
Cheng Huaijin felt a sudden pang of panic and rushed out to check on the nurse.
The nurse seemed to be her best friend who had been with her since her student days...
When the nurse saw Cheng Huaijin rush out, she immediately shouted, "Run! Cheng Huaijin, run!!!!!"
A gaping maw was biting the nurse's waist, and red blood dripped onto the ground. All around were people in a panic.
Cheng Huaijin's eyes widened in fury, and the familiar name slipped out: "Lin—Yu—!!"
