With this question in mind, Fang Zheng first went to the forest where the girl first turned into a giant, but he didn't find any useful clues. He only found a huge pond near the place where the girl turned into a giant. What's interesting is that according to Fang Zheng's investigation results, this pond seems to be a meteorite crater created by a meteorite from outer space a long time ago...
Unfortunately, no UFO wreckage or anything like that was found inside.
Then all that's left is the west.
Fang Zheng remembered the information in the holographic glasses, saying that there was a mechanical army in the west that was rebelling and wanted to destroy the whole world. At that time, he did see the battle between the giants and the mechanical army, and he had to admit that the firepower of the mechanical army was quite strong, the only problem was... they were not big enough.
At least not as big as a giant.
This is very embarrassing.
However, there was one thing that Fang Zheng found very strange.
That is, according to the records on the holographic glasses, when the old king was alive, the mechanical army's attacks on them were still quite fierce. This is also normal. After all, machines will directly use F2A when encountering enemies. They will not be afraid, and will not worry about losses. If they can't win, they will explode their troops. If they still can't win, they will look for weaknesses and continue bombing. Could it be that they are afraid of you?
In fact, it was precisely because of the crazy attack of the mechanical army that the old king had to repeatedly postpone his so-called plan of "unifying the world and becoming the savior."
After all, you can’t even win in a fight, so how can you be the savior of ghosts?
Until the death of the old king, the kingdom he created was just like Tokyo being besieged by monsters in Ultraman. As long as Ultraman performed normally, Tokyo could be saved. If Ultraman died one day, then... the result was self-evident.
So now a problem arises.
Logically speaking, at present, this kingdom is obviously doomed, and giants as powerful as that girl have not appeared again. As for those giants who are only a dozen meters tall, they are definitely no match for the mechanical army. In other words, if nothing unexpected happened, the mechanical army should have flattened this place long ago.
But they didn’t do that…
Could it be that something went wrong with the Mechanical Legion as well?
The people in that city only mentioned the threat of the giants, and didn't mention anything about the mechanical army. Did they not know about it, or did they deliberately conceal it? If they didn't know anything about the mechanical army, did it mean that the mechanical army was doomed?
With this doubt in mind, Fang Zheng turned the airship around and headed west.
At first, the situation did not change much, except that occasionally a few giants could be seen walking around. However, Fang Zheng was curious, so he stared at a giant that was walking towards the west, wanting to see what it was going to do.
Although the giant's movements were not very fast, it was tall and walked at a fast speed. Fang Zheng had been following the giant for two days and watched it cross a snowy mountain... When they came to the back of the snowy mountain, the scenery in front of them surprised the three of them.
I saw several ostrich-like creatures standing by the river at the foot of the snow-capped mountains.
The reason why they are said to be like ostriches is that their appearance is similar to that of ostriches, with two long legs and their heads buried in the soil as if they are trying to avoid seeing anything.
The reason why they are things is even simpler, because these ostriches are machines!
That’s right, rather than being ostriches, they are more like ostrich-shaped robots made of metal!
You are a robot, what are you doing burying your head in the soil?
"roar--!!!"
Seeing these strange mechanical animals, the giant's eyes lit up and he rushed over with a roar. Hearing the giant's roar, the ostrich-shaped machines that had been lowering their heads by the river also raised their heads, made a "clicking" sound, and rushed directly towards the giant.
Well, ordinary creatures would certainly be afraid, but mechanical creations would not have this problem. Even when facing giants that were several times larger than themselves, they were still fearless and rushed forward directly.
“Oooooohhhh!!”
The attack of these mechanical ostriches immediately angered the giant. He squatted down, swung his big hand suddenly, and smashed all the mechanical ostriches in front of him into pieces like a naughty child smashing a model.
Well, if these mechanical ostriches were toys of some figurine geek, they would definitely rush up and fight the giant to the death when they saw this scene.
“——!!!”
However, the giant's attack was like a fuse that ignited the battlefield in front of them. The next moment, dozens of mechanical creatures of different sizes came from all directions. Their eyes changed from blue to red at the same time. They stared at the giant and then attacked it.
Naturally, this scene was also seen by the three people above.
“Sister Katima, are those animals too?”
Looking at the metal creation below, Mikasa blinked curiously and looked at Katima, who also looked confused.
"That... I don't know either, Lord Kasugano?"
"It's not a living thing. Although it looks similar to an animal, it's actually something that was created."
Fang Zheng briefly explained to Mikasa, and the girl looked at him curiously again.
"Then can you make it, sir?"
"In theory? Yes, but not in reality. This is because this airship doesn't have the facilities to manufacture such things... But your question is indeed very interesting."
As he spoke, Fang Zheng narrowed his eyes meaningfully and stared at the battlefield below.
"These mechanical creations must have been manufactured."
So the question is, where are they made?
While Fang Zheng was thinking about this, the battle below also ended. Although the giant was able to gain the upper hand in the face of the mechanical creatures' attacks at the beginning, as the saying goes, ants in large numbers can kill elephants. The mechanical creatures have fully proved that as long as there are enough of them, all problems will not be a problem.
In the end, the giant was killed by the mechanical creatures, and then...well, the following scenes are not suitable for children.
"I see. That's what they call biofuel."
Fang Zheng frowned slightly as he watched the mechanical creatures below dismember the giant and absorb it into their bodies, then transform and recharge it. He had learned from the holographic glasses that the out-of-control mechanical troops at that time had such terrifying abilities, but this was the first time he had seen it with his own eyes.
Next to her, Katima had already covered Mikasa's eyes to prevent her from seeing this scene.
After all, it's not a good look.
"Okay, let's leave here for now and go deeper."
Fang Zheng quickly retracted his gaze and drove the airship forward again.
However, at this moment, Mikasa suddenly opened her eyes and looked forward.
"Sir, something just popped out of these glasses!"
"Oh? What is that?"
"That...I don't understand."
This is understandable, after all, they have lost their memories.
"show me."
Fang Zheng reached out and took the holographic glasses from Mikasa's ear and put them on his ear. Then a line of prompts immediately appeared in front of him.
[An unknown signal is detected. Do you want to connect? ]
Unknown signal?
Seeing this prompt, Fang Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up.
This is what I'm looking for!
Fang Zheng quickly took out the terminal and connected to the network of the holographic glasses. Not long after, he locked onto another signal source.
"Let's go there and take a look first!"
