Chapter 180 Lament
Mr. Zhen is weighing whether he should continue to stand by Xin Que's side.
The administrator intervened much faster than he had anticipated...
Finally, Mr. Zhen spoke gently, "Let's leave here and go to a relatively safe place first, then we can discuss what to do next."
Xin Que shook her head. "The entire map is under their surveillance. Passively hiding is not a solution."
Most importantly, the clone that the other side sent out was probably just a spy.
The real enemy may be lurking outside, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
...
The light rain in the city continued to fall intermittently, making people feel restless.
A loud thud, as if a giant object had stepped on the building, echoed from above the villa.
However, its shape could not be seen.
Subsequently, the building, which had been partially restored, was crushed into ruins by this force.
One building after another collapsed under the immense force. Amidst the deafening roar, it was barely possible to discern that the force was gradually moving towards the villa where they were.
A colossal mechanical object appeared in the night sky, like a planet approaching the ground, coldly observing everything that was happening in the city.
[Target location has been successfully marked.]
[The operation to apprehend the suspects has begun.]
That power finally emerged from the countless fluorescent data appearing in the night sky.
It is a huge statue of a god.
[Operation Objective: Eliminate all individuals around the target who are suspected of aiding or abetting them.]
This includes traitors who betrayed the prison.
The rain was getting heavier.
Like a heavy curtain draping over a theater, like the thunderous applause of the audience when a play reaches its climax, it envelops the entire world.
The statue is sculpted in a neutral style, making it impossible to tell whether it is male or female. The only way to discern its sorrowful expression is from its rain-soaked features.
Then, a shrill, terrifying song echoed through the rainy night.
Perhaps everything will end in this lonely dirge.
[It's quite unexpected that you, repeat offender number 13, would show yourself.]
The enormous mechanical eye instantly locked onto the woman who was slowly walking out of the villa, and spoke in a cold voice.
Xin Que smiled. "You should have recorded all my behavioral modules since I went to prison, right? I wonder if your massive computing power has been able to figure out the logic behind my behavior?"
The mechanical eyes continued to gaze down at her, the mechanical voice devoid of emotion: "[Based on your actions, and combined with the prison higher-ups' assessment of you... a stubborn resistance, cunning and ruthless. I wonder if these eight words accurately summarize your situation?]"
Xin Que stood in the rain, completely oblivious to the fact that her hair and coat were already soaked.
She stepped into the puddles that rippled in circles, and with one hand, she made a drawing motion from the rain, revealing a knife hilt in her right hand.
As she moved, the blade was slowly exposed to the rain.
"Extremely accurate." Xin Que's gaze was sharp, the tip of the Miao sword in her hand pointing directly at the mechanical pupil in the sky.
"Since everyone is in a hurry, there's no need for us to go through those pointless formalities, right?"
The administrator looked at the prisoner who had dragged the prison into a dilemma, his mechanical eyes, capable of processing everything in the world, only showing the coldness of inorganic programming.
It is merely the AI administrator who oversees the entire prison. The core program that supports its operation to this point is to view everything with an absolutely objective and indifferent standard.
Unlike Qu Huan, it doesn't show contempt or disdain for playing with its prey; it only uses the most efficient methods to achieve its master's goals.
The mission objective has been proactively revealed.
【Operation begins.】
As soon as the command was given, the voice of the statue suddenly became hundreds of times sharper, and then the rain quickly wove together into a barrage of water arrows that hurtled towards Xin Que.
By analyzing the target's every move, and using massive amounts of data to calculate the optimal response mechanism...
That's the administrator's job.
"clang!!!"
With his long sword flashing, Xin Que parried countless water arrows, advancing faster and faster, his target very clear: the administrator sitting on the edge of the sky.
"Whoosh—"
The water jet grazed Xin Que's cheek, leaving a wound.
The dull pain of skin corrosion traveled to her brain, but Xin Que became even calmer.
Using the momentum, she leaped onto a water arrow, and a small, inconspicuous piece of ice quickly froze at Xin Que's feet, paving her way to the sky.
[A cheat virus that imitates the Second Hall of Hell's Frost and Small Hell.]
The mechanical pupils' sharp gaze encompassed every detail of the battle, quickly gathering combat data on Xin Que and the statue.
The statue that controlled attacks with its voice had a layer of loose, floating data around it that slowly merged into its body.
Perhaps because Xin Que's movements through the rain were too fluid, the water arrows broke down into water droplets, turning into harmless rain that fell into the city.
Instead, countless sharp blades combined to form a high-speed rotating auger, slashing at Xin Que from all directions.
"boom----"
As the blades flew, a huge cloud of fire burst forth when Xin Que collided with them in mid-air.
[New type of F9 high-explosive grenade.]
"You can replicate the weapons of the new world, Xin Que? Have you regained your memories?"
Xin Que leaped out of the flames, her expression crazed, "I have to thank... the mental prison for the stimulation!!"
The administrator's pupils shifted slightly, and then another layer of data appeared on the statue, as if to envelop it in a cocoon, gradually covering the entire statue.
As Xin Que made a desperate gamble, the Miao sword she gripped tightly, trailing a trail of lingering flames, slashed heavily across the mechanical pupil, the cocoon enveloping the statue gradually ruptured.
"Click, click-click".
[Combat data collection complete.]
[The battle program is now dynamically adjusted.]
The administrator was not alarmed by the enemy that was about to attack it; on the contrary, it was quite looking forward to everything that was about to happen.
Xin Que's pupils contracted.
An identical Miao sword came flying through the wind and slashed heavily towards Xin Que's neck.
She quickly raised her knife to deflect the opponent's attack. Just as she saw the opponent's true face, she was completely suppressed by the cluster munitions launched from a new type of combat device that only existed in the real world, which appeared behind the newcomer, and slammed into the ground.
The woman controlling the weapon looked at Xin Que, who was already at a disadvantage, and then mouthed something to Xin Que.
Farewell.
My blueprint.
Then, a wide-area directional bomb used by bombers appeared on the data screen floating beside her, and was launched toward Xin Que's position with unstoppable force.
The outcome is decided.
[Remain highly vigilant; the mission is not yet over.]
The administrator looked at the wealthy area covered in smoke from the explosion and spoke in a cold voice.
“Okay,” the woman replied gently, her figure identical to Xin Que's, standing before the mechanical eyes that monitored the entire world.
"The explosion is expected to end in ten minutes," she said.
"Should we take advantage of this lull to arrest the traitors who betrayed the prison?"
