"Later, can you tell me about the outside world? I am trapped here and cannot get out, but I still want to hear about what happened in my Mechanical Kingdom after I left."

Lin Tianming was very surprised to hear the question from the Mother of Destiny.

She seemed to be unaware of the self-proclaimed three ascending kingdoms? After staring at Lin Tianming's pensive state for a while, the terrifying voice of the Mother of Destiny, full of rust and corrosion, sounded again.

"I thought you were from my Mechanical Kingdom, but now it seems that you are not."

After hearing this, Lin Tianming's heart skipped a beat.

She wouldn't kill him just because he wasn't from the Mechanical Kingdom, right?

"Although I have waited for so long but have not seen a true person from the Mechanical Kingdom, I still thank you for giving my now shabby body, which is running out of time, a little comfort."

Feeling the loneliness, solitude, sadness, despair and other negative emotions of the Mother of Destiny, Lin Tianming didn't know what to say.

She dragged this rusty and corroded body and persisted like this. Maybe she wanted to see the people from the Mechanical Kingdom again?

After waiting for endless years, she finally found someone who could resonate with her mechanical ascension power.

But he was not the person she wanted to see most.

This further deepened her pessimism that she saw no hope...

All the negative emotions that permeated the sky of the Mechanical Supreme Palace were conveyed to him clearly.

"I have lost track of time in this rusty and corroded palace. I only remember that I chose to stay here in order to buy more time for my Mechanical Kingdom to seal off most of its territory..."

"Even though I struggled to support and protect it, this once most sacred and majestic mechanical palace in the Mechanical Kingdom eventually became filthy and unclean under the corrosion of rust..."

"All the people from the Kingdom of the Mechanical God who stayed with me to buy time have undergone terrible changes under the corrosion of this terrible rust..."

"The eternal and immortal mechanical body collapsed, and despair and fear were implanted in everyone's mechanical brain, spreading like a virus. Even though the mechanical body had long abandoned emotions, it was unable to stop the crazy thinking from crushing everything..."

"Our original intention of pursuing mechanical ascension was to abandon our flesh and blood bodies that would be easily corroded. In the end, the absolute rational supreme mechanical ascension we pursued was unable to resist corrosion. Were we wrong from the beginning?"

The Mother of Destiny began to talk to herself again, and told Lin Tianming a terrible truth.

The Mechanical Kingdom's pursuit of abandoning all emotions and using absolute rational thinking to achieve mechanical ascension is still unable to stop the erosion of the power of the evil god.

The mechanical body will ignore the influence of emotions when dealing with anything. The absolutely rational mechanical brain, once it is contaminated by the power of the evil god, will fall into a state of mental madness like the brain of a flesh and blood body.

Absolute rationality did not bring salvation to the Mechanical Ascendants, but instead caused them to fall into a state of self-destructive program collapse.

This completely subverts the idea of ​​"flesh and blood are weak, machines are soaring" believed by the people of the Mechanical Kingdom.

The reason why they took a different path from the Genetic Kingdom and the Psychic Kingdom is that they believe that mechanical ascension is the supreme path to eternity.

Now tell them that the so-called mechanical ascension is still a joke in front of the strange god, how can they not collapse? As Lin Tianming kept thinking, he gradually understood the despair that permeated the Supreme Mechanical Hall.

"There is no hope here, only the terrible truth..."

Muttering the desperate words of the Mother of Destiny, Lin Tianming subconsciously lowered his head and looked at his completely mechanized body.

He seemed to see rust covering his body, corroding it into a dilapidated state, and implanting negative emotions such as madness, fear, loneliness, and sadness into his brain.

Once this emotion is implanted, people with mechanical bodies will be more unable to resist this negative emotion than people with flesh and blood, and it will destroy everything in an irreversible way.

The flesh and blood body has not abandoned all emotions, and can even rely on its own will to fight against such negative emotions.

But a mechanical body that has achieved absolute rationality and does not have a will is simply unable to resist the implantation of such emotions...

Meng Xiyue's information about the goddess reborn flashed through his mind. It mentioned that in the future, the Mechanical God Kingdom would not put up any resistance and would collectively rebel and become traitors at the moment when the great terror of darkness descended. Lin Tianming immediately understood the reason.

Today's Mechanical Kingdom has developed to the stage where the mechanical mastermind, Destiny, can upload the consciousness of everyone.

Everyone will upload their consciousness to the data space created by the mechanical mastermind to share all the knowledge of the Mechanical Kingdom.

In this state, everyone is a mechanical mastermind, and the mechanical mastermind is everyone.

Once the mechanical mastermind's destiny is eroded by the power of the evil god, negative emotions such as despair and fear will be implanted in it.

The collapse of the Mechanical Kingdom will be faster than that of the Genetic Kingdom and the Psionic Kingdom!

In the future, the three ascended kingdoms united in the abandoned land. It should have been a critical moment to fight against the dark terror together. However, at the moment when the supreme being descended, all the mechanical gods swore allegiance in a viral state of collapse.

Meng Xiyue, who was not from the Mechanical God Country, could not understand and eventually died tragically in infinite fear. Is this the future?

Even if one persists for a while longer in the era of infinite darkness like Lilith, one cannot escape the fate of annihilation.

The future... is really hopeless! The voice of the Mother of Destiny also sounded again.

She seemed to be asking herself, and also seemed to be asking Lin Tianming.

Moreover, her condition was getting worse and worse. Rust and corrosion were unknowingly corroding her mechanical body, which had few intact parts to begin with.

When Lin Tianming saw this scene, his pupils shrank slightly.

Was he going to witness with his own eyes a mechanical ascended god perishing under the corrosion of the power of the strange god? "Should we pursue genetic ascension, or psychic ascension? Or...are these paths all wrong?"

Listening to the self-doubting words of the Mother of Destiny, who could die at any time, Lin Tianming, who resonated with her emotions, unconsciously walked slowly towards her.

He said slowly: "Maybe there is no right way or wrong way at the beginning."

Hearing this, the Mother of Destiny raised the last half of her face that was gradually being eroded by rust.

Before long, the half of her face that was once beautiful will be riddled with holes due to rust.

Seeing that Lin Tianming actually took the initiative to hold her rusty hand that even she herself found terrifying, and that he was not corroded by the rust at all due to contact with her, her despair seemed to have a glimmer of hope at this moment.

"You have listened to my whispers that have been corroded by the power of the strange god for such a long time, but nothing happened to you. You resonated with my negative emotions, but there was no sign of being corroded by rust. Even when you touched my rusty body, nothing happened..."

As soon as these words came out, Lin Tianming woke up from his dream. He found that he had dared to touch the Mother of Destiny that was covered with rust and corrosion.

What happened to him just now? Lin Tianming himself couldn't figure out how he dared to be so bold and presumptuous.

Fortunately, he touched the Mother of Destiny, and no irreversible dire consequences occurred.

"You're right. Maybe there was no right or wrong from the beginning. I just didn't achieve true mechanical ascension..."

With the reminder from the Mother of Destiny, Lin Tianming also recalled the seemingly profound remarks he had just made.

These words actually came from his mouth?

"Thank you for showing up. You gave me hope for mechanical ascension when I was trapped in despair and fear. Can I ask you for one last favor?"

Hearing the request of the Mother of Destiny, Lin Tianming, who was always in emotional resonance with her, nodded.

"I hope you can witness the true mechanical ascension on my behalf. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, I hope you will never give up hope, okay?"

Feeling her conflicting emotions of despair and hope at the moment, Lin Tianming agreed to her request.

"Although I don't know if I can make it to the end, if I can, I will definitely take you to witness the true mechanical ascension in the future."

As Lin Tianming agreed, he could clearly feel that all her negative emotions disappeared at this moment.

But her broken mechanical body still turned into powdery rust under the corrosion of rust, and disappeared bit by bit in front of Lin Tianming.

"Thank you. I look forward to the day when you truly ascend mechanically, rather than the false ascension of our Mechanical Kingdom... Finally, I wish you good luck..."

Lin Tianming felt a little sad when he heard the farewell of his mother who was about to die.

Just when he thought that the Mother of Destiny would be corroded by rust and not even a trace of existence would be left, he heard the sound of something falling to the ground.

When he took a closer look, he realized it was a quarter of the face of the Mother of Destiny with one eye.

Even though the ground was covered in rust and corrosion, this quarter of the face remained uncontaminated.

Lin Tianming squatted down and took the precision mechanical face that simulated a human being in his hands.

It is obviously a precision machine, but the touch is no different from real human skin, demonstrating the achievements of the Mechanical Kingdom's supreme mechanical ascension technology.

Moreover, Lin Tianming could once again feel the emotional resonance of the Mother of Destiny from the only remaining quarter of her face.

All the previous negative emotions dissipated with the rusty ashes, leaving only a trace of hope that was so faint that it was almost imperceptible.

Could it be that the promise he just made to her gave her the last glimmer of hope that left her with this quarter of her face?

Although he couldn't figure out what left this quarter of the face, Lin Tianming's eyes were firm, and he would try his best to fulfill his promise to the mechanical ascended god who was full of despair before his death.

He brought her the last glimmer of hope in her despair.

If mechanical ascension can be achieved in the future, perhaps he can use this quarter of the face to help her return to this world.

Witness the mechanical ascension as hope becomes reality!
