Chapter 200
Xingnuo found a very small pub in this city.
There are colorful decorative light signs, and once you enter you will see a space that has been expanded using technology. The waiter has a robotic arm and half of his head is made of metal.
Xingnuo sat inside curiously, ordered the cheapest cocktail, and sat in the corner silently observing the protagonist of this world.
A man whose half body is made of heavy metal.
He looked strange yet powerful, and Xingnuo couldn't help but stare at him for several more seconds.
"067, the people in this world are so weird."
067, on the other hand, didn't think so. He liked this kind of metal body, which could reach the peak of strength and power. If it broke, he only needed to replace the parts.
"You don't understand. This world is more advanced than yours. It is inevitable that humans will become metal bodies. Otherwise, their lifespans will not be extended and they will die easily."
Xingnuo said "oh", took a sip of wine, and asked:
"Is this the body you want?"
067's cold tone was rarely accompanied by a hint of pride as he replied:
"Yes, as long as I have enough energy, I can anthropomorphize into a perfect mechanical body."
Xingnuo held up her face, her fair cheeks looked beautiful and delicate, her eyes flashed with a little bright light, and she asked like a curious baby:
"What if there's not enough energy?"
067 seemed a little disgusted and couldn't help but say, "Then we can only simulate a very weak body, which may not even be as good as a human child."
Xingnuo thought that if 067 was really a child, he would definitely have a paralyzed face, stiff and expressionless, which would look very strange.
Xingnuo burst out laughing, propping up his chin and teasing:
"Then you won't even be able to walk, and you'll be treated as an alien by other kids!"
067 didn't seem to care about this. He looked at the protagonist who was about to get up and leave, and said hurriedly:
"Stop talking, the protagonist is leaving! Go up and talk to him!"
Xingnuo drank the cocktail slowly, looking at the sparkling liquor in the glass, and said calmly:
"Why rush? Wait until I finish drinking, then pretend to be drunk and get close to him."
067 was indeed very anxious, but there was nothing he could do. He could only wait for Xingnuo to finish his drink and come forward to interact with the protagonist.
As a result, before the glass of wine was even finished, an accident happened.
Another system brought the host closer to the protagonist first, trying to plunder the protagonist's luck energy directly through contact!
067: "You are a step late! Someone else got there first!"
Xingnuo said nothing and continued to watch the host touch the protagonist's arm. He raised his head and saw the protagonist's half-smile.
At that moment, Xingnuo's eyes widened instantly, and his vigilant radar reached its peak at this moment.
"No! Let's go!"
067 hadn't noticed any danger yet, but saw Xingnuo jumping to the door as nimbly as a rabbit.
The next moment, there was a loud explosion in the house.
Xingnuo was standing far away, but was still hit by the aftermath and was forced to hit the wall of the street, then rolled down and lay on the ground.
A hole was blown through the door of the tavern.
The thick, pungent smoke in the cave gradually dissipated at the door, revealing the situation inside.
When Xingnuo saw it clearly, his pupils shrank.
The protagonist with half a metal body stood in the smoke, holding the host in one hand, and in the other hand, holding a round ball of light that was neither too big nor too small!
That's the system!
067 was also startled. He heard a crackling sound of electricity and was unable to react for a long time.
"How could this happen? This protagonist knows about the existence of our system!"
Xingnuo raised his head and looked at the tech-punk city around him, feeling as if that was how it was.
"This world is of a very high dimension, 067. In the eyes of the locals, your system is probably just an advanced electronic machine."
What's more, 067 is just a branch system with weak energy. It is considered good enough if it can be kept turned on every day.
067 fell silent, looking at the ball of light pinched by the protagonist, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"Let's run!"
Xingnuo felt that the protagonist must have some detection tool on him that could detect who the outsider was.
Before the protagonist could react, Xingnuo got up from the ground, limped away.
Xingnuo and 067 hid and blended in with the scavengers in the city, making themselves dirty for fear of being found by the protagonist.
There are all kinds of thin-screen blue-light transparent electronic players on the streets. Xingnuo stood at a corner, watching a piece of news playing on the screen:
"Recently, the captain of the ninth inspection and management team has captured another outsider. Citizens should be alert to people who approach unexpectedly. These people generally do not have metallic features on their appearance and carry an advanced electronic smuggling system. If you find such people, please contact us immediately!"
Xingnuo's anxiety reached its peak as he read the news.
"067, this world is too dangerous, is there any way for you to leave?"
067 has been silent since that day, as if he was hit hard by this incident. He answered:
"No, as you know, we obtained very little energy in the first two worlds. We were able to come to this world only by stealing some energy from the main system."
Xingnuo felt something was wrong and asked again:
"Did the main system let you come to this world?"
067: "Yes, this world has the most energy."
Xingnuo's face was serious, and his tone was heavy:
"You've been deceived. Since we came to this world, two hosts have been captured. This world is a high-risk world. The main system definitely doesn't want you to return alive!"
067's initial setting program was engraved with the rules of obeying the main system, and he subconsciously refuted:
"No, the main system needs us to help it collect energy, why would it throw us into such a dangerous place?"
Xingnuo smiled, laughing at 067's innocence.
"What's impossible? You can't betray the main system, but didn't the first two worlds steal its energy? The main system is probably having some problems, and its control over you has weakened. It's also afraid that you might have some ulterior motives, so it wants to recycle you directly. This world is the best opportunity."
"Look, in less than five days, two systems have already died."
Xingnuo's face was very cold, his eyelids were slightly pressed down, and he looked completely different from his usual optimistic little sun.
"I bet that within two days, the next system and host will be discovered. What do you think will happen after they are discovered?"
067 did not answer. It had already used its energy and started contacting the main system.
As a result, all the information fell into oblivion and there was no way to contact them at all.
067 At this moment, I have to admit that Xingnuo is right.
These systems have been abandoned.
067 was ranked low, as the system No. 001 ahead of it had already started its missions a few years ago. As a completely novice system, it had no energy to resist even if it was deceived.
In this world, 067 is probably really going to die here.
In order to avoid pursuit, Yi Yitong hid in this cyber-tech city.
In just half a month, five more systems were discovered.
Xingnuo picked up a newspaper, and the font on it automatically changed to a small screen and started playing:
"Everyone, beware of outsiders! The smuggling systems these people carry will absorb energy. They are extremely despicable and shameless. If you see them, be sure to call them immediately..."
Xingnuo couldn't help but sigh when he saw the newspapers on the street were all looking for wanted notices for these foreign illegal immigrants.
"You see, I told you it's not good to steal other people's energy. In the eyes of the locals, we are just despicable stowaways."
067 After hiding for a few days, his simple and indifferent personality has changed a lot, but he still feels a little confused.
"Why?"
067 began to doubt the meaning of its own existence. It was abandoned by the main system and despised by people in higher planes. It seemed that it was a wrong existence from the moment it was created.
Xing Nuo sighed and said, "I have inquired about it. If we are caught, the system will be destroyed. Outsiders like us will go to the labor camp for transformation for a hundred years!"
Xingnuo's lifespan is not as long as these mechanical humans. He will probably die after being transformed for a hundred years!
067 was silent for a long time, and suddenly said:
"You can get money for transformation, and you can save money to buy mechanical limbs to extend your life. Xingnuo, you still have hope."
Xingnuo sensed that something was wrong with 067, but before he could speak, he heard him say:
"We both disliked each other to begin with, and I have never provided you with any help. This is my first and last gift to you, Xingnuo. Let's untie each other."
Xingnuo opened his eyes wide in surprise, as if he couldn't believe that his long-cherished wish of being untied and regaining his freedom had been achieved so easily?
But the next moment, Xingnuo still smiled and said:
"But you and I were the first to know each other and we signed an agreement. Have you forgotten?"
067 thought that since the main system could no longer be contacted, it was not impossible to simply cancel the agreement.
But from the perspective of the void, he saw Xingnuo's smiling face.
She has a small dimple and her eyes are very bright. She is looking at a certain point in the sky, as if she is looking at 067 intently.
At this moment, 067 felt his electronic chip vibrate slightly.
Very light, but very intense.
Xingnuo didn't say anything else about agreeing to be untied, because someone from the inspection and management team discovered him, and Xingnuo started to flee again.
There is no room for the city anymore.
Xingnuo had no choice but to take 067 to the desert outside the city.
In the cyber and high-tech era, the area outside the city has become a vast desert with sandstorms everywhere and a harsh environment.
But it also gave Xingnuo a chance to catch his breath, and he could finally sleep peacefully.
Xing Nuo sat up in a daze from the desert, looked at the red sun rising in the east, blinked, and suddenly said:
"Lu Qi, eh, that's weird, why should I call you this name? Do you feel like we shouldn't be in the desert?"
067's boot speed became a little slow. He had no energy and his speech speed became very slow.
"Yes, there are some, but didn't we come to the desert to avoid being hunted down?"
Xingnuo shook his head, feeling that this desert looked very familiar, as if he had walked through it once with a certain system, sleeping in the open and looking exhausted.
Xingnuo didn't know why he had this idea, and he always felt that he had something very important to do.
Xingnuo wanted to tell 067 about his doubts, but 067 would be confused every time and advised him not to think too much.
Xingnuo frowned, fell silent, and suddenly said:
"System 067, where do we go next?"
