Chapter 124 Kill Me
Lan Hu and his companions carefully bypassed wave after wave of mechanical beasts and walked towards the direction they were rushing from.
The deep mountains are full of potholes and there is no road. As you walk, you will see a deep pothole. After walking a little further, you will see a mountain of garbage.
Just after crossing a hill, Zhang Yi suddenly screamed, "Help, help!"
He walked in the middle, just in case. Everyone followed in the footsteps of the person in front to avoid stepping on empty space.
In front of Zhang Yi was Changzi, who was fine when he walked past. But when it was Zhang Yi's turn, he stepped on Changzi's footprint, and suddenly several iron hooks emerged from around his feet. One of the iron hooks just happened to hook his ankle. In an instant, Zhang Yi trembled with pain.
But before he could react, his body was inexplicably lifted up, and his companions seemed to be descending in his eyes.
The ground around them made a rumbling sound, and several of his companions jumped away. When they heard his shout, they turned around and looked at him, all with expressions of astonishment.
Zhang Yi stood on the back of a mechanical beast with many huge claws on its back. His ankle was caught by one of the claws.
The mechanical beast looked like it had been buried in a garbage dump for a long time. It was covered in dust, and the smell of rust and decay was overwhelming, making it suffocating.
But that wasn't important. What was important was the sheer size of this mechanical beast. It shook its body rapidly, shaking off the debris. Perhaps sensing a larger piece of trash hanging from its body, its large claws reached for its back to scratch.
Lan Hu leaped up and pounced from the back of the mechanical beast, grabbing a dorsal bone spur for support and pulling Zhang Yi up with his other hand. He looked up and saw several of his companions staring at him with horror.
He didn't need to look back to realize that the mechanical beast's claws were waving towards him, and the whirring wind it brought out made his body sway.
The distance was too close to avoid, so Lan Hu picked up Zhang Yi and jumped onto the mechanical beast's claws. When the mechanical beast was about to pinch its claws, Lan Hu jumped to the ground again.
Lan Hu's body and the genes in the suppressor are integrated very well. Although his defense is not as good as Shi Lao Ren's, his speed is definitely the strongest in the field.
His leap and dive to save people took only a moment, and everyone only reacted when he jumped down. Yao Leng immediately rushed towards Lan Hu with the Meteor Pot in hand.
Just as the mechanical beast looked over, the few of them covered Lan Hu and Zhang Yi with the meteor pot.
The Meteor Pot could not only block them, but also their scent. They crossed several mountains along the way and encountered wave after wave of mechanical beasts. It was only thanks to the cover of the Meteor Pot that they avoided a head-on collision.
Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, they heard Changzi say tremblingly, "This big guy didn't leave. He lowered his head, as if staring at the meteor pot from the sky."
Yao Leng said decisively, "Move forward in an S-shape. Changzi, continue to observe the opponent."
"It's really staring at us. It can see us."
Lan Hu threw Zhang Yi to Old Man Shi and turned to Yao Leng, saying, "If it charges towards me, I'll hold it back while you find a chance to leave."
Mechanical beasts and deformed beasts are different. They cannot detect the level of the other party. As the strongest in the field, even Blue Tiger feels that the other party is very dangerous and not something they can deal with easily. They can only find opportunities and run away as many as they can.
Zhang Yi was carried on the shoulders of the Stone Old Man. He ignored the injury on his leg and said hurriedly, "I have an idea."
~~
Jiang He had a brief conversation with Xiao A in his mind.
Little A didn't have any information about "Mother" and "Nest", and even the idea that Jiang He was a robot was unbelievable to him.
[The nest is too dangerous. If it's really as the mechanical bird said, going offline is the same as what humans would call death. Queen, are you sure you want to go?]
Jiang He was about to leave, and the question of where she came from was like a ball of wool that was getting bigger and bigger. The "mother" mentioned by the mechanical bird seemed to know her origins very well and was coveting her body.
If I don't go to see him, all the clues about the system, myself, the core source, and how to leave Planet A62 will be cut off in this deep mountain.
But she has come so far from the training camp to here, so why would she hesitate at this time?
The mechanical bird was extremely frustrated. The female it had secured flew away like that, leaving it feeling very sad and upset. "Even the mechanical beasts wouldn't go near the nest, so why did you insist on going?"
Jiang He replied casually, "Who told you to keep talking about Mother? I have to go see what this guy who is more powerful than me looks like."
The mechanical bird froze when it heard this. It was only the size of a palm, and when it froze, it looked like a lifeless bird model made of fine iron, very delicate.
Of course Jiang He would not treat it as an ordinary bird model.
She observed the robots that had crawled out of the ground. "They're even more powerful."
"They are the first generation, so naturally they are powerful," the mechanical bird said proudly. "And their hibernation is also a way to upgrade themselves."
Perhaps because it couldn't bear to see Jiang He die, the mechanical bird was listless and silent, and would freeze and become sluggish from time to time.
Jiang He couldn't get any important information out of it, so he ignored it and walked towards Chaoxue.
The closer they got to the nest, the fewer mechanical beasts there were around. Gradually, Jiang He was the only one left. The surroundings were desolate and getting darker, and the sound of the wind "woooooo" echoed in his ears.
There is a lot of various kinds of garbage on the ground, the road is very uneven, and huge mechanical waste can be seen from time to time.
At first glance, she was the only living thing, with only the sounds of her breathing and the wind to accompany her.
When the "sizzling" sound was heard, Jiang He did not stop.
The mechanical bird stood motionless on her shoulder, and Jiang He felt that it was more like it was offline at the moment.
After walking a little further, Jiang He saw a huge sphere.
The sphere is like a bird's nest, made of many metal steel pipes wrapped in circles. The lowest end is supported by a giant steel pipe. The sphere is suspended in the air about ten meters above the ground.
The gray fog in the deep mountains was like dust, blocking the view. Only when Jiang He got closer could he see clearly that there were many rotten electric wires hanging from the sphere. When the wind blew, the wires swayed.
She tilted her head and stared at the ball, guessing that this was the nest that the mechanical bird mentioned.
The mechanical bird that had been stuck suddenly said, "Don't go up there."
Jiang He: "Does it know I'm here?"
"Yes."
"But I'm fine now." Jiang He smiled, her tentacles popped out, wrapped around the steel bars of the nest and jumped up.
Jiang He's tentacles moved around the nest, but couldn't find the entrance. She hardened her fist and punched one of the thickest steel pipes.
The steel pipe was deformed by the impact, but the nest is made of countless steel pipes wrapped together, and the deformation of one steel pipe will not affect the entire nest.
Jiang He did not retract her fist. Instead, she retracted her hardening ability and grabbed the steel pipe that had just been deformed.
The surrounding steel pipes seemed to have consciousness and slowly spread outwards the next moment, making way for Jiang He.
Jiang He just stepped into the nest, and in the blink of an eye, a white space appeared in front of his eyes.
"0112, let me introduce myself. I'm 0, your mother..."
Jiang He interrupted: "Say it again."
"0112, let me introduce myself. I'm 0, your mother..."
Jiang He continued to interrupt it calmly: "Say it again."
No one responded this time. The pure white space stretched as far as the eye could see. Jiang Hetai didn't care about the other party's lack of response. She looked around without any panic or fear.
"0112, do you know the origin of the mechanical beast in the mountains?"
The sound came into Jiang He's ears from all directions, and he couldn't tell the other party's location.
"I don't know, why?"
"These mechanical beasts were personally assembled one by one by our master over a period of a hundred years."
Jiang He noticed that the other party said "we", and it seemed that the other party also included her as a part.
"Your master is quite powerful."
"It is very powerful." Zero said proudly, "Master, if you wish, you can control the entire world."
Jiang He didn't say anything. She wouldn't flatter me.
0 didn't like Jiang He's attitude. He said disdainfully, "Do you know why I know everything about the master? I'm also his confidant, but you've forgotten everything?"
Its tone was like a little girl who had been rewarded with candy by her father and was showing off to her sister.
However, the other party actually knew that she had lost her memory. Jiang He said calmly: "You also said that I have forgotten everything, so I definitely don't know."
"Because you betrayed your master. The mechanical beasts cannot leave the mountains and have to hibernate underground, all because of you."
Jiang He: "Oh, how did I betray you?"
Her tone was indifferent, as if she was completely unconcerned.
Number 0 was angered by Jiang He's words, but he didn't get angry immediately. After a moment of silence, he laughed at himself and said, "That's right, you have lost your memory and don't remember anything."
As soon as it finished speaking, Jiang He's feet felt empty and he suddenly fell downwards. He fell very fast and it took a long time before he reached the bottom.
At the same time, scene after scene flashed before my eyes.
In the pouring rain, she sneaked into the army of mechanical beasts and removed their core sources one by one.
In the cramped space, she stabbed the other person's neck with the dagger in her hand, cutting his throat with one blow.
In the noisy crowd of people, countless shadowy figures waved at her and shouted, "Kill her, kill her!"
The shouting was so sharp and piercing that Jiang He felt a sudden pain in his brain and his whole body was shaking.
"You betrayed us." 0's voice sounded, "You are a traitor. You should be punished by being offline."
Jiang He, trembling all over, released her hands that were hugging her head, raised her head, and looked forward with a smile. There were some chaotic scenes in front of her, but her eyes clearly passed through them.
"No." Her voice was calm but firm. "I will not accept the punishment of being offline."
0 didn't expect her to refute it at this time. It shouted angrily: "Why don't you accept it? You have no right to resist!"
"You're panicking." Jiang He's body continued to fall. Amidst the whirring wind, she spoke slowly, "0, what are you feeling guilty about?"
The mechanical bird told her that "Mother" had the ability to take any mechanical beast offline, including her. As long as she entered the nest, she would be taken offline by Mother.
But it is clear that the mechanical bird's cognition is biased.
Jiang He felt that if No. 0 wanted to take her offline, he had to get her consent.
This should be one of the necessary conditions, otherwise the other party would not waste time and talk to her so much.
"I feel guilty?" Number 0 said loudly, "You should be the one feeling guilty. You killed our master. How dare you still live like this?"
It says live, not run.
Jiang He: "Either you restore my memory so I can see what's going on and decide whether I should log off, or you can stop yelling. I'm not interested in these rubbish you're creating."
Jiang He's body touched the ground and stopped falling. Although she knew that the fall she just experienced was not a real fall but was just a visual guide, her legs bent reflexively when her feet touched the ground and she almost fell to the ground.
It was still a pure white space, stretching as far as the eye could see.
No. 0 did not respond. Jiang He walked slowly in the pure white space. Since this was the first thing that knew about her amnesia and perhaps also knew about her past, she gave the other party enough time to think.
A white line suddenly fell from the sky in front of Jiang He.
Jiang He looked at me curiously: "If you want me to hang myself, you need to put a loop around this string first."
No. 0, "Bite your finger and connect it, and I will share my memories with you."
Jiang He was amazed by this method of memory sharing. She looked down at her fingers and asked, "By the way, do you know Senas?"
"I don't know." Number 0 urged coldly, "Hurry up, my patience is limited."
Its rejection was very quick and cold, and it didn't sound like a lie. Moreover, in this situation, Jiang He felt that there was no need for the other party to lie to her about something that was already in her pocket.
If No. 0 hadn't tampered with Senas's system, who could it be? Could it be the guy No. 0 called his master?
Jiang He bit her finger, and the moment the wound touched the white line, it felt like something quickly jumped from her finger into her body and spread to every part of her body.
Her body trembled rapidly, and as her eyelids trembled, her eyeballs were slowly covered by white.
A man slowly appeared in front of her and stretched out his hand and slowly moved it across her eyes.
"Jiang He, your name is Jiang He."
"No, you don't need to call me Master like them. You can call me...Brother."
"You don't have a number, and you don't need one, because you have a name."
"This is my world, and it's yours too."
"I'll give you everything you want, but Jiang He, I can't give you freedom. You and they all belong here. This isn't imprisonment."
"You are different from them. You are Jiang He."
At the end of the scene, he was lying on the ground, surrounded by blood. He looked at her, his eyes happy and disappointed. "Jiang He, are you happy to kill me?"
Jiang He's fluttering eyelids stopped the next moment. She sat up suddenly, her heart pounding. She stared at the pure white space in front of her, her eyes fixed on the sky, and muttered, "Xiao Sen!"
