Chapter 219 The Mother of All Machines! The Machine Kingdom! The Rat Emperor has rebelled! Mother River Civilization (monthly votes requested)
Although it is cool to depart at night, Wanxing City is located in the middle of the Dark Star Domain and is a transportation hub, which means...
there is still half the journey to go.
You can go to bed now!
But there was a small incident in the middle. Because the commotion caused by Archbishop Rimu of the Church of the End was too big, it has spread through the Internet and has caused panic in a small area.
So the crew began to distribute the Anti-Evil God Cult manuals that had just been printed and still had the scent of ink, and quickly comforted the passengers by saying that everything was safe.
Some people did not expect that such a big thing would happen in Xingwan City while they were shopping.
"Fortunately, we are leaving the Dark Star Region, so we shouldn't run into this crazy guy!"
"I didn't expect that after the demise of the Dusk Cult, there would be another Church of the End. The world is getting more and more chaotic." "
Although the sword master who uses tentacles as swords is crazy, he is inexplicably handsome. Absolute strength crushing is the romance of men!"
"A big family like the Lin family should not be clean either. Maybe they were robbed by villains."
"Where did you get this victim-blaming theory? Stop hating the rich, okay?" "
..."
People were talking about it. Most of them were afraid and watched, and a small number of people were gloating.
As for Lu Yu, three female stewardesses from "bcc" also brought picture albums. Although he couldn't eat them, women, like men, have a great interest in looking at beautiful things.
And they knew that the charm of one person was not enough, so they changed their mindset and invited five people to play games together to gain points, but Lu Yu declined.
Boys have to protect themselves when they are outside.
Don't think that others are crazy about you. Once some people get entangled, it's not easy to get rid of them!
Lu Yu closed the door and looked at the cover of the picture album. Because he didn't take a photo, the profiler drew the figure of the yellow robe Baizhi based on the survivors of the Lin family.
A yellow-robed figure stood at the boundary of light and darkness, with a half-sun ring shining behind him. A snake-like golden mist lingered around him, and countless tentacles descended from the darkness!
Huh! ?
How come he looks better than I did?
"This artist is a professional in Photoshop beautification, and he has no professional ethics at all. In order to prevent him from losing his job, Lu Dashan copied this image!"
Lu Yu did another good thing. When he turned around, he saw Shushu sitting on the soul cloud and sighing, and asked casually:
"What's wrong with you?"
"Cultivator, can you not go to the nightmare prison for training today?" Shushu pleaded weakly.
Lu Yu nodded: "Okay, let's go tomorrow!"
He was a little tired after running thousands of miles overnight, fighting with the eternal giant, and counting money until his hands cramped.
The best way is to combine work and rest!
However, after hearing this, Shushu was not happy, but continued to say:
"Then... can we not go tomorrow?"
Lu Yu frowned when he heard this, thinking that this lazy hamster was lazy again!
However, after listening to the explanation, he couldn't help but roll his eyes.
It turned out that Shushu was... exploding!
Because this time, a large number of mouse clones were used as disguises. They abused their power for personal gain. While they were not working, they bought and robbed sheep, and stockpiled a large number of potato chips, fat house happy water, and various snacks.
Simply put, it is equivalent to winning the lottery and becoming rich overnight. They don't want to work anymore! Now the biscuits drawn by Shushu don't work! Lu Yu asked in confusion: "When they come back, won't all this be yours?" When did this hamster become so easy to talk to? Shouldn't he say "You
have already got a way to die" and then take back the treasury? Mouse pouted and said, "Although they didn't inherit Mouse's diligence and hard work, they did inherit amazing wisdom. They had already thought of this result in advance, so they went to find Spider Sister and marked out a small area from the Void Treasure Chest as a granary!" He felt that he had gotten up very hard today! Even Mouse's clone would go to Spider-Man to open an account! He glanced at Spider-Man, who was holding a big watermelon and nodded vigorously. "Huh!" It's true! Mouse continued to say aggrievedly: "Originally, I wanted to do something shady with Spider Sister and let Spider Sister directly turn it into a bad debt for me, and then I could use the Fire Dragon to burn down the warehouse when asked about it later. But Spider Sister is too upright, saying that the mouse clones are also family members, and that each mouse's property is sacred and cannot be violated. Moreover, they have formed the [Mouse Clone Rights Protection Union], united with the rest of the mouse clones, and refused all malicious exploitation. They have begun to demand the repayment of previous arrears and a wage increase, otherwise they will go on strike directly!" Little Spider smiled and did not comment on this. For the sake of family harmony, fairness must be the priority. The owner can't do that either, unless he touches his head! Thinking of this, Little Spider took a bite of the watermelon, with a satisfied look on his face. "So sweet! 』 Lu Yu was also surprised. He didn't expect that the mouse clones not only knew how to hoard food, but also developed a worker mouse union to unite the majority of mice to fight again! This set of combo punches is much more exciting than some business wars such as pouring boiling water on money trees, throwing shared bicycles, and buying security guards to turn off the power? The next step... won't it be to hang the big capitalist mouse on the street light? Lu Yu also listened with relish, but still found a blind spot: "Then why don't you just make up for what you owe? I think I bought you a lot of potato chips, right?"
"How can that be!!"
Shushu shook his head like a wave drum and said seriously:
"They are me. I exploit myself. What opinions do I have? And if they dare to ask for wages today, they will dare to ask for repairs tomorrow. Shushu will never tolerate this kind of evil trend!
What's more, Dandan ate all the potato chips I stored last time. Even if I want to pay wages, I can't!"
"Roar?"
Dandan, who was half asleep and half awake, heard the key word "eat", raised his fierce dragon head, opened his hundreds of eyes, and looked around curiously.
Where is the food?
Isn't it time for dinner?
"I see!"
Lu Yu also understood that Shushu embezzled public funds, but encountered a cash withdrawal frenzy, which was about to trigger a bank squeeze.
It looks like this guy is about to go bankrupt!
Lu Yu suddenly realized and said, "It seems that you are here to transfer your debt to me!!"
He wants to find funds from outside to fill the gap. This hamster is getting smarter and smarter!
But isn't this - [Potato chips hit rats, rats (potatoes) are gone]!
"Hehe!"
Shushu scratched his head with his little paws, showing a flattering smile, and came up to him and said:
"Xiu Ren, what do you mean by transferring the debt? That's so ugly. This is called angel investment. You invest in my project and we can grow it together.
With just a few hundred bags of potato chips, you can fill up Shushu's bank and get a group of hardworking working mice, who are at your disposal!"
Although the way he spoke was still strange, Lu Yu would not be fooled this time and refused decisively:
"I have paid your salary, you should wait for your weekly allowance. Since you said they are you, you have to pay for the snacks for the mice. It's not expensive. I'll round it off and give you 800 yuan!"
Lu Yu wanted to see the next step of Shushu Wume, so he naturally couldn't help.
What's more, the intelligence of the mouse clone is getting higher and higher. In fact, the skill proficiency of [Soul Clone] is constantly improving, and it has reached the perfect level of 99%! It is
only one step away from breaking through to the pinnacle!
Let Lu Yu be the pusher and help Shushu reach the sky.
If it fails... I can only blame this shrewd mouse for doing too much in the past and completely arousing public anger!
"What!?" Shushu was petrified on the spot. Not only did he not get the funds, but he also had to bear an extra debt.
How sad it is!
In fact, the problem is not that serious, because tomorrow is Monday, and the new weekly funds will arrive, so it won't be difficult to pay off one more debt.
The problem is that there will be salary increases in the future...
In this way, the comfortable life that Shushu has obtained by squeezing the mouse clones will be completely shattered, and life will be very tight.
It's difficult to go from extravagance to frugality!
Looking at the cultivator who turned around to wash, Shushu's expression changed, and suddenly he clapped his little paws and murmured:
"There is a way, the big capital Shushu will not fall!"
It thought of a wonderful way, it only needs to prepare for a period of time, and it can make the mouse clones obediently submit!
At that time, you can do whatever you want and enjoy the amazed looks of the cultivators!
"Hehehe..." Shushu's sinister laughter rang out, and then Lu Yu, who had just finished washing, taped him and physically sealed him.
In the following days, Lu Yu lived a stable schedule, eating and drinking during the day and entering nightmare hell training at night.
Among them, the little spider's [Illusion] skill successfully broke through the pinnacle of 1%, and added an extremely simple effect.
Sublimation!
Directly upgrade the intermediate [Illusion] skill to the high-level [Illusion Protection]. While the power of the skill itself remains unchanged, the illusion created becomes more real, and the consumption is reduced to half of the previous one.
Although the illusion system is no longer the main ability of the little spider, don't forget that it still has the fantasy [Dream Bubble]!
The more real the illusion is, the stronger the ability to deceive!
Reverse illusion and reality!
Shushu directly paid half of the wages to most of the rat clones after the money arrived. Although the [Rat Clone Rights Protection Union] was dissatisfied, after Shushu took out Xiu Ren and gave an impassioned speech, the rat clones were moved and began to train their skills.
Lu Yu was surprised that this savage rat was willing to cut off his flesh, and he was somewhat relieved.
The effect is also very obvious. Although the soul clone has not broken through, the super skill [Shadow Control] has reached the pinnacle of 90%!
It is about to become a saint!
As for Dandan… the rest of his skills remained the same, but [Immortal Hunger] had already broken through to 1% of the perfect level in just a few days!
Even with the proficiency template, this progress was so fast that it was incomprehensible!
This guy is too compatible with "eating"!
In the world of immortals, he is just a child's heart!
Time passed by little by little, and finally at noon on the fifth day of riding the [Star-piercing] train, we left the Dark Star Region.
As the Star-piercing train traveled at high speed, we soon saw a 300-meter-high platinum-colored metal wall, like countless metal giants standing side by side, with no end in sight.
However, this heavy metal, like water, keeps flowing and changing, and various weapons emerge. From ancient times to the present, all mechanical creations are emerging, but they sink into the metal and keep changing.
Such a scene brings a terrifying sense of oppression to the life inside and outside the domain!
At the same time, the beauty of the machinery is felt!
"Xiu Ren, is this the Mechanical King Domain? Why did it build such a big door? What's the use? Aren't they afraid of being bypassed?" Shu Shu exclaimed.
Lu Yu looked at the huge metal door through the car window. Hearing this, he smiled and said,
"This is the Gate of All Machinery. It is one of the masterpieces of the Mechanic Alliance. It includes the entire Mechanical King Domain!"
"The entire domain!"
Shu Shu widened his eyes and said in disbelief:
"Is it true?"
Lu Yu nodded and explained, "Of course it is true. In fact, the Beast Tamer Alliance in the Mechanical Domain is called the Mechanic Alliance, and it also has a nickname, called the Infrastructure Maniac. The Gate of All Machinery is one of the masterpieces of the Mechanic Alliance, which can protect the entire domain.
These mechanics have constructed countless mechanical spiritual inscriptions, as well as tens of thousands of advanced weapons, countless turrets, and electromagnetic and laser technologies, etc. ...
All of this is controlled by the top intelligent computer [Mechanic Mother] of the Mechanical Domain Alliance. It has a computing ability close to the true king level, but it is only a computing ability, not psychic power or force.
But even so, it can also target Different monsters are dealt with differently, and hundreds of large military factories are connected for supply. They can deal with thousands of monster battlefields at the same time, and handle all matters of the entire domain.
It is also one of the base stations of the network we use, responsible for building the network, connecting signals, and even participating in a lot of low-level code writing and programming.
It can be said that [Mechanical Mother] is the uncrowned king of the Mechanical King Domain, but it is a perfect king who has no desires and abides by order and rules. It uses electronic products as a medium to invisibly spread its influence and has the effect of the law of the true king. "
This knowledge was obtained by Lu Yu after praising Lilith's cabinet legs!
"Hey!" The little spider also showed a look of surprise. Just by the description, he could feel the power of the Gate of All Machines!
If he could be so powerful, he could protect his master! He
no longer had to worry about the dangers from the outside world disturbing him. He just had to live quietly in the beautiful world he had woven.
"Roar!"
Egg raised his head and looked at the huge gate. His dragon eyes were full of fighting spirit. Such a powerful thing sounded delicious. He would find a chance to take a bite and taste it!
Shushu was stunned, then thought of something and asked, "Is the [Mechanical Mother] a human creation?"
"Of course not, human technology has only developed for a few hundred years, and it is not enough to create a top intelligence like the [Mechanical Mother]." Lu Yu shook his head and asked Shushu, "Do you know what the former Mechanical King Domain looked like?"
Shushu, Little Spider and Dandan naturally didn't know, and they sat down obediently, ready to listen to the story!
At the same time, they cast admiring eyes!
Lu Yu enjoyed this feeling very much and continued, "The former Mechanical King Domain was called the [Holy Gold Domain], which is a large domain full of metal ecosystems.
There is the [Glazed Desert] which always reflects sunlight and is hot enough to scald non-mechanical life. There is
the [Forest of Ten Thousand Golds] which is full of steel needles and even the leaves are sharp metal blades. If you accidentally walk into it, you may be cut into countless pieces.
There is the [Oil Swamp] which spreads for tens of thousands of kilometers and constantly rises oil bubbles . Countless petroleum life forms were killed there
, and there was also the Copper Nickel Mountain, which was forever melting but forever huge. Just getting close to it would cause contamination by heavy metal elements, leading to physical diseases, etc.
In fact, the Mechanical King Domain at that time was not suitable for human habitation. The metal life forms in it were the overlords, until an explorer came here and unearthed an ancient relic. "
Lu Yu paused for a moment, just feeling a little thirsty, and took the brewed barley tea handed over by the little spider.
He took a sip to moisten his throat, and continued:
"He discovered that this was actually an ancient mechanical kingdom called the Kingdom of Spiritual Machinery. According to the remaining historical records, they once possessed terrifying technology that was enough to climb above the stars and get close to the main stream of the mother river. Machinery was their tentacles.
However, due to a great disaster, it was completely destroyed, but the related mechanical technology and all creations were preserved. In fact, many secret realms today are caused by the leakage of creations from the Kingdom of Spiritual Machinery."
"The adventurer who first discovered it was a beastmaster of the Metal Spiritual Puzzle, a branch of the Elemental System. However, because his form was solidified, he could not transform into an element, and his range damage was not enough, so he was in an awkward position. Therefore, no one would take the path of pure Metal System, and basically they had to use other attributes to assist.
However, after he obtained a lot of mechanical knowledge from the ruins, he suddenly had an idea, could he use metal to make machinery, so he turned his The pet was transformed into the first mechanical beast, and gave birth to a stronger spirituality. It loaded a large number of weapons left by the Kingdom of Spiritual Machinery on its own, and its strength increased a hundredfold.
What is even more shocking is that the self-created mechanical creation can also give birth to spiritual thinking called machine soul through special technology, greatly enhancing the power of the machinery and having the potential for evolution. Do you know what this means? "
Shushu murmured: "The era of machinery... has arrived!"
"Very smart!"
Lu Yu looked at Shushu with admiration and continued:
"After he returned, he used his special mechanical pets to sweep away his former peers, making them feel the fear of being dominated by firepower. This instantly caused a sensation in the alliance, and he also gained the support of the Supreme Council and organized a large number of metal beastmasters to explore.
Over the long years, they dug up a lot of technology from the Kingdom of Spirit Machinery and used it, giving the pure metal beastmaster a new name - Mechanic!
Mechanic creates mechanical creations and gives birth to machine souls. Although they will also be deformed, The probability is greatly reduced. Even if the machine is contaminated, it can be repaired by replacing parts, unlike flesh and blood creatures, and its vitality is much stronger!
The only drawback is probably money!
Not only does it require money at home, but it also requires the ability to make money!
With the popularization of mechanical technology, the [Holy Gold Domain], which was originally poor and barren, has suddenly transformed into a mountain of gold and silver. The fierce metal monsters have also become the raw materials for making advanced machinery in the eyes of mechanics. If you want to make machinery, you can use local materials.
Later, the Mechanic Alliance was born. Some of them pursued the ultimate military force, while others derived a discipline called "Science" through machinery. Combined with the extraordinary, they developed a large number of machines suitable for civilian use and promoted them, greatly improving the level of productivity, such as cars, high-speed railways, networks, etc. Some of them inherited the technology of ancient relics, and some were improved products. The "Mechanic Mother" was found among them and repaired.
The border battlefield also had a hundred years of peaceful life in the border because of the addition of mechanics, the construction of war fortresses, and various fire suppressions! "
Speaking of this, Lu Yu also admired the human ancestors of this world in his heart. They selflessly dedicated their research results, not simply pursuing their own strength, but the strength of the race.
In this world, it is the spirituality, not the humanity, that is distorted!
They are shining brightly!
The other three pets are also listening with great interest, as if they have seen a human sage, who has used his own flesh and blood to support the glorious human civilization!
Rumble!
While they were talking, the Star-piercing train had already approached the Gate of Machinery, and the railway seemed to have reached the end.
As if it was going to hit it straight!
Buzz!
Suddenly, a large number of blue patterns like circuit boards appeared on the Gate of Machinery, shining brightly!
An electronic voice sounded:
"Detection target...Serial number x942-Star-piercing...Completeness 95%...Transformed mechanic Han Gu...Pass chip inspection successful...Passage allowed..."
Rumble!
With violent vibrations, the electromagnetic field around the metal gate dissipated, and at the moment of contact, a large hole that could just accommodate the Star Piercer appeared.
Inside, you can see the rails connected to the other end! As
the train drove into it,
the surrounding scenery began to decrease at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the road began to become neat. Even a broken tree appeared on both sides of the road, and the opposite tree had to be split in half to maintain symmetry!
It is a blessing for people with obsessive-compulsive disorder!
The scenery also began to become dominated by metal creations.
Compared with the harmonious coexistence of man and nature in the Dark Star Domain.
The feeling that the Mechanical King Domain gives people is...
order!
Just like the countless gears that make up a machine, everything is constructed in a stable and standard direction.
Maintaining stable and benign operation!
But it also lost its novelty, and I got bored of it after a short while!
"Xiu Ren, I feel like this place is not as fun as before!"
Shushu lay in front of the window, boredly looking at the unchanged scenery outside the window, when suddenly... a group of sparrows appeared, flying low, turning their heads, looking at the passengers in the carriage with eyes full of wisdom, making many people laugh.
The flight attendants just smiled and said nothing!
"These silly birds are a bit interesting, they are more beautiful than the scenery!"
Shushu responded with a face, and asked:
"Xiu Ren, didn't you say that most of the monsters in the Mechanical King Domain are metal monsters? Why can such ordinary flying birds survive safely? It doesn't feel as dangerous as you said..."
Lu Yu said meaningfully: "Take a closer look!"
"Okay!"
Shushu continued to look and found that these cute sparrows suddenly had their heads dropped!
"Ahhhh, what is this!?"
Shushu was so scared that he flew back repeatedly with a terrified look. After all, he is most afraid of the dark and scary things!
He dared not listen to ghost stories, even though he is a Thousand-Faced Soul Rat...
Many passengers were also frightened and their scalps tingled!
How can you see ghosts in broad daylight?
"Wait..."
Soon, Shushu discovered that the sparrows' broken heads did not fall off, but were connected to their bodies by springs. Their bodies were not made of flesh and blood, but a special metal structure.
During the flight, they quickly reconnected their heads through their own vibrations, and looked at the terrified people, making a "caca" sound!
It seemed to be mocking their cowardice!
Lu Yu's voice sounded again: "This is a spring sparrow. Its entire body is made of metal springs. It was created by escaping from the Kingdom of Spiritual Machinery. It is one of the species born after the radiation of the [Metal Spring Ecology].
It feeds on rusted iron and likes to scare other lives through pranks. Its nature is not bad. Its racial skill is [Spring Fission]. When it encounters danger, it can split its body and escape, and it can swallow metal. After repairing its body, it evolved into a [Spring Raptor].
A pet that is even larger and hawk-like, it can scatter a large number of sharp springs to penetrate the enemy. They live everywhere in the Mechanical King Domain, can help remove rust from mechanical creations, and maintain friendly relations with many races. "
Speaking of this, Lu Yu also sighed at the magic of creation, even springs are part of the ecosystem.
Although the probability of deformation of the mechanical pets in the Mechanical King Domain is much lower than that of other pets, they face another problem.
[Rust]!
Machinery is metal, so it will naturally rust. At the least, it will affect the operation of the machinery, and at the worst, it will corrode the machine soul, leading to extinction or loss of control!
Even some monarch-level mechanical monsters will be troubled, affecting their own advancement.
However, the solution is to let some weak low-level monsters eat the rust.
All things are balanced, mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining!
A special ecological chain is formed!
Rumble!
With a violent friction sound, the Star Train suddenly stopped, and Lu Yu also fell forward due to inertia.
Whoosh!
However, Spider-Man acted quickly, and a large amount of spider silk spread out, securing Lu Yu and the luggage. Shushu was not affected because he was floating in the air, and Dandan was as solid as a rock.
"Well done!"
After Lu Yu stood firm, he touched Spider-Man's head, and then looked out the window, wondering what happened?
However, after a quick glance, his eyes fixed, and he said in surprise:
"This is..."
At the same time, the passengers in the rest of the carriage or the second-class seats were not so lucky. Even though they were wearing seat belts, they were shaken all over and almost vomited the overnight meal. There was
also an unlucky guy who just unbuckled his seat belt and stood up, and was directly hit with a big bump.
Fortunately, the ticket price was high, and those who could get on were at least Silver-rank Beast Tamers, who were in good physical condition and not seriously injured.
"What happened?"
"Damn, the train suddenly stopped and almost took my life!"
"Are you kidding me? There are children on this train. I'm going to complain to the Union Railway Bureau!"
"..."
Everyone was full of resentment, and the train attendants also fell down unexpectedly. After getting up, they endured the pain and kept apologizing.
The anger of the crowd was slightly calmed down.
After all, there was no point in making things difficult for the workers.
The chief train attendant quickly found out the reason:
the several sections of rails in front were bitten off by unknown monsters, and the surrounding protective mechanical turrets and repelling barriers were also completely damaged.
Staff were immediately arranged to repair it, and the Star Train would refund half of the ticket price as compensation, provide free lunch, etc.
After hearing the answer and compensation, the passengers gradually calmed down, and began to complain that the infrastructure maniac in the Mechanical King Domain did not live up to its reputation.
"What's that outside the left window?"
Suddenly someone exclaimed, attracting everyone's attention and turning their heads to look.
They saw a black and red line appearing outside the metal road in the distance, which was constantly jumping...
rising a little bit!
No, that's not a line!
It's a group of mechanical rats!
They are rushing on the ground, and black paste-like oil keeps overflowing from the gaps in the metal joints, quickly covering most of their bodies.
Under the influence of the mysterious black oil, red tendons and flesh tissues began to grow out of the metal body, piling up like a disease and forming granulation tissues.
This half-mechanical, half-flesh structure not only looks extremely twisted, but
even more terrifying is that...
they seem to be crazy, with red eyes, roaring and turning into a huge tide of rats, rushing
towards the train!
