After Akka entered the cell, he was stunned for a while. He didn't understand why he came out in that situation and admitted that Blackstone came to find him.
He sat with his knees in the corner and thought for countless times, what would his end be?
Humans are shrewd animals. For the sake of his own life, he has long recited the legal provisions over and over again. After thinking about it, Akka felt that with the problem at this moment, he might not necessarily be executed. After all, the law did not mention how to bring back human beings to be punished.
The only thing that can be related to him is the crime of crossing the line. But Akka was careful not to reveal any whereabouts in front of surveillance cameras. As long as these robots, who only abide by the regulations, cannot judge whether he has left the ant nest in private, the charges are not convicted.
And Blackstone's problem is even simpler. He has neither identity nor is he a fugitive from other areas. In this case, it is very likely that both he and Akka will be found not guilty - the premise is that Blackstone will not reveal to the robot that Akka Information that once slipped out.
However, once the clones filed suit, Akka was arrested for theft and executed immediately.
Akka is very fortunate that he made a correct decision subconsciously. This decision seemed to save Blackstone, but it actually saved him.
Thinking of this, Akka glanced at the black stone opposite, thinking about how to tell him his thoughts without being monitored and recorded. When he looked up, he found that Hei Shi was also staring at him. They were separated by two cells whose bars were criss-crossed by lasers.
"Blackstone," Akka said.
Blackstone glanced at Akka.
Akka: "What on earth are you doing here?"
Blackstone replied, "It has nothing to do with you."
Akka: "You..."
Akka had no choice but to take the black stone. The black stone looked around, with doubts in his eyes, and wanted to reach out to touch the laser fence. Akka immediately said nervously: "Don't touch it, don't move anything!"
Blackstone said indifferently, "Shut up!"
Akka said simply: "You touch it, don't blame me if you die."
Blackstone was silent for a long time, but in the end he didn't try to risk himself.
"Don't talk." In the end, Akka could only tell him that.
Blackstone just stood silently, staring at Akka. Akka was thinking over and over in his heart, how should he explain it to Blackstone? This adult man who was picked up is simply an inexplicable lunatic.
He doesn't know anything. When questioned, you should and should not lie. What's worse is that he doesn't know the status quo, the city of machines, the status of humans, and the relationship with robots. Akka only feels very difficult.
When Akka looked up, he found Blackstone looking at him.
"Listen, Blackstone," Akka said, realizing that it might be necessary to demonstrate to Blackstone the fact that there are dangers everywhere, so he took a small screwdriver from his pocket and threw it at the laser cage with a "snort" sound. , a plastic screwdriver was cut into two pieces and fell to the ground.
Blackstone stared at the screwdriver.
"Don't talk." Akka said, "don't say anything, or you will die. First tell me the truth, why are you here?"
Heishi said: "No reason, I have to find a way to get out, you can continue to stay here."
Akka gritted his teeth and said, "I saved you twice! Black Stone! Is that how you treat your savior?"
There was a sound from outside, and the two of them noticed it alertly, and sat down in their cells each. Akka couldn't stop looking at Blackstone, thinking about him for a while, and thinking about the clone revolution for a while. He closed his eyes, and suddenly heard a dull sound in the distance, and the wall shook gently.
Immediately afterwards, the entire cell area went dark, leaving the laser fences flickering.
Gunshots rang out in the distance.
Akka stood up instantly, the energy was cut off! How is this going? According to the information I got from the chip, shouldn't the clone revolution be on the 27th?
The laser sounded "buzz-buzz-", reflecting on the faces of the two of them. The situation was strange, and after a few seconds, all the light sources disappeared.
Akka ran out of the cage, staggered, and bumped into someone's arms. He was taken aback by a strong arm.
Akka said: "Let go of me!"
The man snorted coldly, it was Black Stone's voice, pushing him aside. Akka thought to himself: That's enough... As soon as the cell was opened, all the prisoners were trying to escape. It was pitch black and unable to identify the road, Akka had to recall the road when he came, and shouted: "This way! Blackstone! Come with me!"
He turned and ran towards the exit on the left, but at the exit he heard the sound of robot tracks, as if many patrolling sentries were approaching. He turned around subconsciously and ran to the depths of the cage.
Akka: "There is danger! Turn back!"
Akka ran deep into the aisle, where there were rows of cells. As soon as the laser disappeared, everyone was alert, and the cell was full of chaotic shouting and shoving. Akka was pushed to a stagger and grabbed a person.
"Blackstone! Blackstone!" Akka yelled anxiously, but didn't respond. He thought he had lost his way, and Akka couldn't care less about looking for someone in the dark. A messy voice sounded.
+++++
"Free!"
"Get out!"
"There is a problem with the energy system!"
"Everyone be careful! Lie down!"
In an instant, Akka felt someone pounce on him and rolled on the spot. He was agile, and laser bullets flew from all directions. The robot guard opened the hallway door, and spots of light flew through the air, screaming and blood everywhere. Akka's heartbeat stopped in an instant, and he felt dizzy when he touched the creamy liquid.
"Here." Blackstone's voice was still calm, unreasonably calm. Akka only felt that he jumped and was pulled into a certain place by the black stone, followed by a tumbling, the door slammed shut, and they entered the passage outside the cell.
Unable to see anything, Akka groped in the dark and turned over a cover on the side of the passage, smashed it a few times, and asked, "Heishi, are you still there?"
There was no sound, the surroundings were silent. Immediately afterwards, there was a loud bang, and the cover in front of him was smashed to pieces. Akka was startled, took out the cold light and turned it on, and saw that Heishi's hands were covered in blood. If it weren't for the blood, he even suspected that Blackstone was a robot.
"You're so strong," Akka said with lingering fears, "doesn't it hurt?"
Akka looked at Blackstone's hand, the back of the hand was scratched.
Hei Shi did not answer, but instead said, "I'm leaving, be careful yourself."
Black Stone turned to leave, Akka was completely out of temper, so he had to take the cold light and move forward carefully.
In the blink of an eye, Black Stone didn't know where to go. Akka illuminated the road ahead with a cold light, and searched for the passage nervously and cautiously, for fear of running into a robot. However, after dangling, I found that there was someone in front of me, and I ran into Black Stone again.
"Let's go together," Akka said. "You're not familiar with the passages here."
Blackstone didn't answer, didn't walk with Akka, and walked towards the depths of the passage. He stopped in front of him, looked back at Akka, turned his head, and held something that didn't exist in one hand, as if he was holding a cold light. A-Ka was vaguely aware of something: Blackstone was learning.
He guessed that Blackstone should be imitating and understanding his every move. In other words, apart from language, Black Stone has a part of behavior and thinking that is completely blank, just like a human child. But now he didn't bother to ask Blackstone, the first thing was to save his own life.
While keeping up with Black Stone, he shared his thoughts with Black Stone.
Akka: "This place is called the ant nest. It is a place where humans live. You are also a member of humanity."
Blackstone still had an air of indifference.
Akka: "We are now trying to find a way to escape from here."
Blackstone didn't respond, and Akka added: "The light helps us see the road clearly. This kind of light is for clones, they are not robots. Robots are equipped with infrared lenses, so they can see people even in darkness. So... "
"You are too noisy." Blackstone said.
Akka: "…"
Akka finally broke out and roared: "I'm unlucky to know you!"
Hei Shi turned around and looked at Akka threateningly. Akka then hesitated and didn't dare to yell at him again.
Heishi said coldly, "What did you say?"
Akka didn't dare to say more, but fortunately, Blackstone didn't beat him, just turned and walked forward.
"There are other people fighting outside." Akka followed behind Blackstone, realizing that this was not the time to quarrel with Blackstone, and then said again, "So we can leave here while the chaos."
Blackstone gave a perfunctory "um" and turned his head, as if recognizing the voice in the darkness. Akka knew that he understood it completely, so he followed him all the way forward.
The cold light shines in the passage, reflecting the road structure ahead, halls, passages, halls, passages, most of the isolation steel walls are open, and occasionally half of the steel walls fall down, probably due to energy problems. Akka looked at the wall several times, trying to find the map guide in the passage, but gradually found that it was futile.
Only the living area of the ant nest has a map guide, and after leaving the ant nest, the robots and clones are equipped with a navigation system and do not need a map. Since he was blind, he didn't know where he was, so he could only follow Black Stone forward blankly.
After the appearance of the black stone, Akka suddenly found that his luck had become good. He seemed to have brought the goddess of luck to Akka, and also brought changes. Without Blackstone, Akka would probably have been captured and executed by clones by now. As for whether the clones had forewarned in advance because of the loss of the chip, and launched a war, it was completely beyond Akka's expectations.
After walking for an unknown period of time, Akka gradually lost his strength and said, "Wait for me for a while, I need to rest."
Blackstone looked at Akka impatiently, and finally said, "I'm leaving."
Akka said, "Where are you going?"
Blackstone replied, "It has nothing to do with you."
Akka had nothing to do with the black stone, he always seemed to be obsessed with the conversation between the two after Akka picked him up at the beach for the first time and woke up. That conversation was unpleasant. But in the final analysis, it was also based on the hostility that Blackstone showed when he first met Akka.
Akka said: "Wait for me, you can't live here alone."
Black Stone's footsteps drifted away, leaving Akka where he was before leaving.
Akka turned his ears sideways and put them against the wall of the cave to listen, but couldn't hear anything. In front of it is a long tunnel for transporting living materials. There are many such tunnels in the ant nest, criss-crossing each other, shuttle in the underground space, and carry the things that human beings need. Finding the track is equivalent to finding a network of passages.
Akka rested for a while and started walking slowly along the track, but unexpectedly ran into Black Stone again.
There was no exit in front, and Blackstone was looking up to study a device that looked like an electric box.
Akka said: "Pull down the gate outside. This is activated by magnetic force and will not be affected by power failure."
Black Stone pulled the gate, and there was a roar from the rails, opening an iron gate embedded in the ground.
+++++
"Good job," Akka said. "You can't find an exit if you go alone."
Blackstone didn't answer, Akka jumped off the endless track and walked forward along the track. Black Stone also followed, and there was a faint sound of explosion in the distance.
I don't know how the human cloning plan is going, and Akka is a little worried. If he has not escaped, the clones will fail collectively. What should I do? While walking, Blackstone suddenly pulled Akka, and the two almost collided with a minecart.
The road is blocked.
"What?" Akka asked.
Blackstone stepped forward and pushed the minecart with both hands.
The minecart weighed at least a ton, and Black Stone bowed and pushed it hard. Akka was about to stop him, but found that the minecart was moving slowly, so Akka also bowed and pushed the iron wall-like minecart with Blackstone, panting forward on the track.
After an unknown amount of time, they arrived at a temporary transit in the orbit. A cobweb-like orbit existed in a hall, surrounded by holes. Blackstone listened for a while and chose a path.
Akka stood at the entrance of one of the holes and heard a moan, could it be the exit?
It was getting colder all around, and the air-conditioning system stopped because the power was cut off.
"What?" Blackstone asked.
"Cold." Akka said.
Blackstone obviously didn't understand the definition of "cold" and walked away.
Akka was extremely depressed, and couldn't help but complain: "Then what are you asking..." He shivered a little, and noticed that Hei Shi had been wearing the linen robe he had given him, thinking that although he was strong, he still had to Find some clothes to put on... otherwise it will be more troublesome if you get sick. As they walked, they stumbled and stumbled on invisible tracks.
There were several cloned corpses lying on the track, and someone moaned in the distance: "Save me... save me..."
Akka took a deep breath, his heart beating violently.
"Which squad..." The surviving clone turned his head and saw Akka and Blackrock.
His head was destroyed, one eye protruded from the socket, and his lower abdomen was penetrated by a bullet hole. Seeing that Akka was a human, he said, "Human."
His hands were trembling and raised, as if trying to grab Akka, and Black Stone pulled Akka and made him stand a little further back.
"What happened?" Akka eagerly wanted to know whether the war was won or lost.
"Human." The clone said feebly, "Let's go." He closed his eyes immediately.
A-Ka held the cold light and looked around. It seemed that there was a fierce battle here. The robot guards in front were destroyed a lot, and the light of electric current flickered in the wreckage of the robot.
Akka stripped the clone's corpse of clothes and put it on Blackrock. Blackstone undid the linen robe, put his hands into the vest, and kept his eyes on the clone as he put it on, and Akka knew he had doubts. Sure enough, after a while, Heishi opened his mouth.
"Why do these people all look the same?" Hei Shi was puzzled by what he saw in front of him.
"They are clones," Akka said, "a messenger made by the machine regime to serve them."
"What about you?" Blackstone asked again.
Akka replied: "I am a human, and in the city of machines, the class is lower than that of clones."
"Class?" Blackstone heard a term he didn't understand.
Akka lets Blackstone get dressed, and as he walks, he absently explains to him the city of class and machinery, and the makeup of human society, including how clones execute robots' commands and help manage humans, helping robots to do things that steel lifeforms can't Competent job.
The clones are managed by a unified organization. They are not afraid of injury or illness. As long as their organs are damaged, they can naturally be replaced. Their blood types are all the same, and their organs can match each other, so clones are much easier to survive than humans, just like biological robots.
"How did they get here?" Blackstone asked a second question.
Akka replied: "Made by humans."
"Humans have reached the sky and the earth in the most glorious era, and they are omnipotent," Akka explained to Blackstone, "The machine army and clones headed by 'Father' are all works of human beings. These are manufactured for human beings. But the clones betrayed the human first, then the 'father', and the machine regime controlled the production line of clones, and finally brought the clones under the rule of the machine."
"What about humans?" Blackstone asked again, "A human like me."
"Some stayed here and were treated as slaves," Akka said. "I am. The rest ran away, and I heard that they established a new country on the other side of the ocean."
Blackstone nodded, and Akka moved in his heart, thinking of the moment when Blackstone was washed up on the shore. Could he have come from a distant continent? There are various rumors about the Utopia on the other side of the ocean. Some people say that the Utopia is the world of magicians. They call the wind and call the rain, can control the nature, and change the world with their spiritual power. Some people say that the refugees are all dead, and the so-called ideal country is just an ethereal legend.
Some people also believe that the army of the Utopia will one day arrive in the city of machines, destroy the "Father", the great demon they created many years ago, and liberate the humans here.
But instead, it was the clones in the City of Machines who took the lead in setting off such a revolution.
After hearing Akka's explanation, Blackstone's expression became even more indifferent. A-Ka suddenly thought of something and guessed: "Could you come from the Utopia?"
Akka imagined Blackstone's life experience many times along the way. Perhaps it was a survivor who drifted from a wrecked ship; perhaps three thousand years ago, he came to the Third Continent with a certain mission. However, Blackstone had forgotten all about it, and only hoped that he would remember it someday in the future.
After Blackstone and Akka met, apart from asking questions, he was silent most of the time and observed the outside world. Akka didn't bother him either, and threw him his boots for him to wear.
The air is getting colder and colder, and Akka's breath has turned into a white mist. Wrapped in thick clothes, the two walked through the scene after the war. As far as the eye could see, there were cloned corpses and wreckage of robots all over the floor. It was obvious that they had experienced a thrilling battle.
The further inwards we went, the more corpses there were, until outside a door, it was almost densely piled up. Akka realized that this might be a very important place, an unremarkable hallway, a door without any signs.
"Why did he die here?" Akka was puzzled. There were nearly a hundred corpses and wrecks in this corridor. It seemed that he was guarding something very important, and there was only this door at the end.
Looking back, there is no way to retreat. Now he can only bite the bullet and move forward. Akka suddenly realizes that there will be a central control room where "Father" is stored? But he immediately overturned this speculation. This is just an area where the tracks of living materials intersect, and it is impossible to store "Father" in a sealed remote underground.
Blackstone removed the corpse and the mechanical wreckage, revealing the door completely. He pressed his shoulder against it, but couldn't push it. Akka pondered for a while and said, "I'll try it." He opened the controller beside the door. There were dozens of combination locks inside, which was quite tricky.
He accidentally found that the clone lying on the ground closest to the door was holding a card tightly in his hand, and he realized that the rebels were about to enter the door.
What's behind the door? Akka's curiosity was simply uncontrollable. He used the security card to open the gate of the independent power supply, and it was dark inside. The cold light shone on his and Blackstone's faces, surrounded by empty nutrition capsules, and in the center sat a dying human.
An old man.
"It's finally here..." the old man said.
The sudden sound startled Akka.
"You... Who are you?" Akka hurriedly stepped forward to check the old man's condition, and found that there were many tubes of different colors stuck on his body, all of which were life-sustaining devices.
"Where is General Libull?" The old man raised his cloudy eyes and looked at Akka.
"Li... General Bull?" Akka said, "I don't know... A lot of clones died outside, how are you?"
"The revolution failed..." the old man said tremblingly, "how did you come to this place?"
Akka briefly described the process of his escape. The old man forced himself to listen and said weakly: "In the end, it was a human who came to me... my mother clan..."
"What... what do you mean?" Akka asked inexplicably, trying to pick up the old man, "Can you act?"
"I'm going to die soon..." the old man said. "Child, do me a favor... get this thing out..."
Hei Shi held up the cold light and shone on the old man's face. Akka looked at his wrinkled face carefully, feeling vaguely familiar, like someone he knew. Especially his indigo blue eyes, he always felt like he had seen them somewhere.
"We know each other?" Akka was puzzled, always feeling that the old man seemed to know each other.
The old man didn't answer, and took Akka's hand tremblingly, and Akka hurriedly handed it to him. The old man pressed Akka's finger on the handle of his wheelchair, and there was a light "click". Akka felt something pierced through his fingertips and cried out in pain.
Akka staggered back a few steps, and Heishi stepped forward to grab the old man's neck, trying to push him out, but Akka said loudly, "Wait!"
The old man had dozens of tubes stuck in his body, but was lifted from the wheelchair by his neck. This action hastened his death, his eyes rolled, a complex and eerie smile appeared on his face, and he managed to lift his fingers.
"Don't be so rude, let him down." Akka hurriedly said.
Black Stone put the old man back in the wheelchair, and Akka looked down at his ring finger, which was dripping with blood.
He was dizzy for a while, and heard a mechanical sound in the distance, and the secret passage was bad. The old man said again: "Give this... to General Libull..."
He handed a chip to Akka, closed his eyes, Akka said anxiously: "Hey! Wake up!"
The old man's head fell, dead.
The mechanical sound was getting closer, Akka quickly hid the chip and turned back: "Go."
Blackstone hurried to the passage, and a laser bomb was shot outside, and Akka hurriedly shouted, "Be careful!"
"Go back! There are enemies!" Blackstone replied.
Akka swiped the security card, the door slammed shut, and the explosions sounded one after another, and they were trapped in this room.
"Find an exit." Akka said immediately.
Akka and Blackstone quickly separated, looking for the exit here. As Akka checked all possible passages, he couldn't stop thinking about the old man's indigo blue eyes and his familiar face. He always felt that he had seen this old man somewhere, and he still saw it often... While thinking, he suddenly saw Black Stone stop, standing in the hall, looking at the old man's body with doubts.
"What's wrong?" Akka asked straight up.
Heishi said: "I know him."
Akka was startled and asked, "What's his name?"
Blackstone shook his head silently.
Akka wanted to inquire about the old man's origins, but Blackstone didn't know what to do, and forgot everything.
Akka had to say, "Let's look for the exit carefully."
Heishi said: "Don't look for it, this is a prison."
Akka woke up in an instant, and Blackstone's inference was good. From the moment he came in until now, all signs showed that the old man was a prisoner. In other words, except for the entrance, there is no other way to go.
What to do?
At this moment, there was another violent collision outside the door, which deformed the door. Akka was looking for a place to hide, but the door was twisted under the impact of the external force, flames shot out from the crack of the door, Akka subconsciously turned around and ran to Black Stone, and Black Stone flew cleanly, and the two collided in mid-air , hold them tightly together.
At the same time, the door exploded with a "boom", flames shot everywhere, and Black Stone rolled on the spot with Akka in his arms, and rolled into the corner.
"Quick! Take people away!"
"God... already dead!"
"Humanity?"
"There are two humans here!"
"Don't do it!"
"what happened?!"
There was chaos in the room, several clones rushed in, Akka was dizzy, stood up, and was protected by Blackstone behind him, and the strong light came and went.
"We escaped in," Akka explained.
"When did you come in?" a clone asked anxiously. "Dr. Callan was alive when you came in?"
Blackstone was about to answer, but Akka squeezed his palm and replied, "Alive. He has something to tell me to General Libull."
There was an explosion outside. This time, the explosion was extremely clear, as if the whole world was about to be overturned by the explosion, the ground shook, and several people were almost unsteady. The captain of the clone army said: "It's too late to say more! Take them away!"
Under the protection of the clone army, they rushed out of the passage again. There were more and more robot guards around. From time to time, some people shouted "Hold up! They are counterattacking". For some reason, Akka felt dizzy and staggered. He ran out, feeling weak and dizzy.
Akka volleyed a few times, grabbed Black Stone's hand, and was blocked by Black Stone. He couldn't hold it any longer and fell to the ground.
Black Stone came back again, frowning and said, "Why are you so fragile."
Akka said angrily, "leave me alone!"
Akka couldn't breathe, his vision was blurry, and he felt as if he had a fever. Blackstone picked him up and ran after the clone. Behind them are members of the resistance army holding the old man's body and a wheelchair.
They walked through the aisle in the turbulence, Akka was dizzy and awake, and after an unknown amount of time, the sudden appearance of light shone on him for a while.
He came out, the sun was blazing, Akka covered his eyes with his hands, he had never breathed the fresh air on the ground so much, and felt the blazing sunlight like a ball of fire, radiating and burning his soul.
Everything turned pale, like a wind of particles from the stars shrouded it.
"I'm going to die..." For some reason, Akka felt very weak.
"Hold on!" Blackstone shouted anxiously in his ear.
Blackstone had been holding Akka around the waist for a while, and Akka felt Blackstone running, and then the voice of the clones rang in his ears.
"He's just temporarily weak..."
"I can't see why..."
"Humans follow us! Let's get started!"
"Let him bask in the sun, don't move him now..."
The sound of the tide swept over, and Akka calmed down for a moment. This was the most magical moment he had ever experienced in his life. The surrounding movement seems to be infinitely far away from him, but he can see it very clearly, as if there is an overwhelming magnetic field radiating out of his brain, and all movements are clearly seen in the magnetic field.
Gradually, the magnetic field retracted, and the final focus was only the outline of a person beside him—Black Stone.
Black Stone's outline became clear, he said something to Akka, and Akka's five senses gradually returned.
"Are you all right?" Blackstone's eyebrows were twisted into a nice knot.
Akka said: "No... it's fine."
He regained his senses, covered in sweat, and raised his hand subconsciously. Seeing that Hei Shi was looking at him worriedly, he pulled up Hei Shi's hand and intertwined with his fingers, and Hei Shi calmed down a little. Akka recalled his momentary weakness just now, and thought of the needle that the old man poked in his finger, what did he inject into him?
"Humans, hurry up and get on the ship! Don't stay here anymore!" A clone came to inform.
Blackstone picked up Akka, but Akka said, "I will go by myself." Then he staggered and followed the clone to board the small spaceship. The moment he walked into the lift, Akka was stunned.
On the platform covering an area of nearly 1,000 square kilometers, thousands of combat spaceships turned around, took off and landed, and flew into the sky, and the magnetic field protection layer around the platform shot down the mechanical aircraft that came to snipe in the sky.
The sky was full of fireballs, and in the deafening thunder, the spaceship exploded, dragging its tail into the sea.
Like a hornet's nest that was smashed, tens of thousands of spaceships took off from the ground, sending out rows of laser bombs, flying towards the very center of the city.
+++++
Akka is taken into a small battleship with only one clone pilot in it.
"Sit down! Fasten your seat belts! I'll take you to the mothership!" the pilot shouted.
Akka remembered that the old man still had something for him to give to General Libull of the clone camp, and quickly sat down. Through the hatch, you can see that the sky is full of fire, and the mechanical legion swarms out, almost covering the entire sky.
The spaceship shook violently, and Hei Shi clung to the solid handle above his head. The pilot shouted, "Watch out for your heads!"
The battleship rolled in the air, sideways dangerously and dangerously, passing through the steel tentacles of the two giant jellyfish airships, Akka said: "Can you win?"
"I can't tell!" the driver shouted, "I don't know which darn leaked the rumors, and the attack plan has been advanced as a whole!"
Akka's heart lingered, and the driver said again: "We are going to the heart of the country of steel! Be careful!"
Akka said: "Don't go! You will die!"
"The Matrix is there!" said the driver, "General Libull is on the front line! There is no way out!"
+++++
A flash of light fluctuated in the distance, illuminating the entire world, radiating fireballs whizzed, and the dazzling light drowned the entire battlefield.
At that moment, all the sounds were gone, and the surroundings became extremely calm. As if seeing something, Black Stone slowly stood up and walked towards the cockpit.
Akka held him and asked him to sit down, it was too dangerous, but the words Akka shouted were drowned in this ethereal and silence. He realized immediately that the explosion was so loud that it caused temporary deafness. As soon as he pulled Black Stone's hand and clasped it with his fingers, he instinctively felt that there was a power in the light that vaguely summoned them.
what is that? Akka for a moment forgot that he was in danger and stared blankly at the things in the white light.
+++++
In an instant, the small fighter jet pierced the light group, the sound came back, and Akka saw the environment clearly.
It was an extremely spectacular scene. The clone's mothership was as huge as a city. It was suspended in mid-air, sending out thousands of fighter jets, rushing towards the central computer like a mountain.
The central computer "Father" stood upright, emitting a dazzling light, manipulating the densely packed flying machinery to resist the impact of the mothership. The sky's dark clouds rolled into a vortex, and the magnetic field ripped the world into shattered pieces.
This was the battlefield of the gods, and Akka shuddered as he stood before it.
At this moment, the "Father"'s defense base fired a light cannon again, and one shot penetrated the flank of the mothership. The broken parts and the steel fuselage exploded and shot in all directions.
"Be careful!" Blackstone threw Akka to the ground.
A high-speed component was fired at their cabin, shattering the pilot's head in a sonic boom, blood spraying all over the cabin, and the battleship shook violently, spinning and crashing toward the ground. Akka slid to the rear of the cabin.
"Leave me alone! Get in the driver's seat!" Akka yelled.
Blackstone understood, slammed forward on the seat, pulled away the driver's body, and pulled up the joystick.
Akka: "Steady, pull back!"
Blackstone yanked the joystick, and Akka fell to the front of the cockpit again. He quickly sat in the co-pilot's position, flicked the machine gun with his thumb, and deployed laser cannons around the battleship, smashing all the parts that flew like meteorites.
Blackstone: "What now?!"
Akka: "Can you drive a spaceship?! Fly towards that big guy!"
Blackstone: "No!"
Akka: "Grab the joystick! Quick! We're going to die!"
Hei Shi roared: "It's too noisy! You can't go to the middle to get shells!"
Akka only remembered his mission, but he forgot the fact that they wanted to save his life. Just as he was about to think, time did not allow him to think any more.
"Quick, run!" Akka said decisively.
However, the violent vibration triggered another fissure. The small battleship was thrown out and crashed into the computer tower. Fire erupted outside the cockpit. During the earthquake, Akka slammed into the bridge with a splitting headache.
The sound of the explosion continued, and Akka was dazed, feeling the black stone slapping him in the face.
"Wake up!" Blackstone shouted anxiously.
Akka's forehead was injured and bleeding, and he raised his head blankly, suddenly stunned.
The two of them were stuck on the edge of the cockpit, and their feet were ten thousand feet high in the sky. Not far from them, the giant mothership was bombarding indiscriminately. go down.
The small warship was stuck on the tower at an angle of nearly 70 degrees and could fall at any time.
Akka recovered and immediately turned on the emergency engine switch, the "broken" warning light came on, and the energy was insufficient.
"Is the ship gone?" Blackstone shouted in a deafening voice.
"No!" Akka said, "We are on the 600th floor of the central tower, and we will die before we run down!"
Blackstone sighed irritably and helplessly.
"What about now?" Blackstone said loudly.
"No more energy!" Akka said loudly, "Find a way to recharge the battleship!"
How to think of a way? Akka looked at the remaining 12% of the energy tank, his face was dazed, and his mind was buzzing. Blackstone gradually calmed down and asked Akka: "Is there any transportation nearby?"
"No..." Akka raised his eyes to look at the sky, the battle between the mothership and the computer tower had entered a white-hot stage. In a short moment, many thoughts passed through his mind:
1. Abandoning the ship to escape, the danger is too great, and returning to the ground from here is also in the center of the battlefield. If you escape on foot, you will not be able to run fast at all, and you may be killed by stray bullets at any time.
2. Finding a new vehicle is logically impossible. In the City of Machines, almost all the spaceships are controlled by the "Father".
"There's only 'Father' here," Akka explained. "We can't decipher his control over the flying machine..."
Hei Shi also looked up at the sky and saw countless humanoid mechas passing by, and asked Akka, "Where are those?"
Akka said: "Those are clone mechas, we can't use them."
Heishi said: "Maybe there is a bad mecha..."
Akka: "I can't fix it for a while! It's up to luck! Find a way to charge it up."
Blackstone had no choice but to nod. Akka was very anxious. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly looked up at the depths of the computer tower and had a bold idea.
The "Father"'s energy source is available, and there is a spare socket outside to charge the mechanical body... Akka suddenly had an idea.
"Grab me," Akka said.
Blackstone took Akka's hand, Akka climbed out of the spaceship, looked down, and the world was spinning.
"Be careful!" Blackstone reminded.
Performing external maintenance operations on a ship that was suspended on one side, Akka thought that he was going crazy... I never thought that such a thing would happen before. Sure enough, people can do anything when it comes to life and death.
He opened the charging gate on the side of the battleship, pulled the cable out, wrapped it around his waist, and looked left and right—the closest to them, the "Father"'s external interface, was ten meters away.
However, the entire computer tower is shaking, and the appearance is flat and cannot be used. How to climb up?
Blackstone saw what Akka was going to do and shouted, "Come back! I'll find a way!"
Akka said: "How do you think of a way? There are extremely hard metal exterior walls here!"
Blackstone returned Akara to the cabin, took the cable, and asked, "How?"
"Just put the clip on," Akka said.
Blackstone looked around, found a rubber oil pump used to unclog the pipes inside the engine, and said, "Use this."
Akka: "…"
That's a toilet suction.
Akka said: "No... No, it's too dangerous."
Blackstone didn't answer, suddenly rushed forward, jumped towards the tower, held the toilet to suck, and with a bang, sucked on the side of the computer tower. Akka was immediately dumbfounded. There was a thousand-meter-high drop under his feet. Black Stone's body shook from the explosion and vibration, and there was a cable wrapped around his waist.
Akka didn't dare to breathe, and stared at Black Stone, only to see Black Stone sticking to the outer wall with one hand, fixing his body with the friction of his palm, then taking off the toilet with the other hand to suck, and then quickly pressing it towards a higher place.
This is possible too! Akka stared blankly as Hei Shi sucked on a toilet and climbed higher and higher on "Father", feeling both apprehensive and amusing.
Blackstone approached the interface, hung the cable upwards, the energy in the cabin instantly peaked, and all the lights turned on.
"Success!" Akka yelled, "Blackstone, come back!"
Black Stone did not move, still maintaining his original posture, Akka was anxious, and his voice was drowned in the repeated explosions.
Oops! Akka turned his head again, and saw that the huge mothership in the sky was almost unable to support it, and a dazzling blue light shot out from the tower of "Father", slamming into the abdomen of the mothership. The wind of the explosion blew, and Blackstone pressed one hand on the outside of the docking port, staring blankly at the cable connector.
The joint glowed with blue light, and a voice faintly echoed in Blackstone's mind. It was a man's voice, but it was indistinct.
The recharging of the battleship had ended, Akka roared anxiously, but Blackstone was always in confusion, and Akka was about to despair.
The mothership in the distance overhead exploded one after another, and parts fell from the sky and shot flying. Akka gasped for breath, and when he saw that a burst of fire was about to engulf Blackstone, a tattered robot rushed from the fire. Akka was dumbfounded, completely unable to believe what was happening in front of him.
That broken robot is K!
How did K come here? That's his robot!
K rushed out of the firelight, slammed into the outer wall of "Father", and then reached out and grabbed Black Stone. Black Stone suddenly woke up with a stunned expression on his face, and was hugged by K in one hand and flew towards the small battleship.
The next moment, before Akka had time to think about all the unreasonable things that happened in this short moment, Black Stone had already been thrown into the cabin by K.
"Come on," K said.
The robot turned around and kicked the small battleship, which loosened. Akka's scalp was numb, and he couldn't accept the fact that K came alive in front of him.
"You... K, how could you..."
"Let's go!" The voice on K's body was anxious, and he kicked it hard to help the battleship escape. Then turned around and flew to the mothership.
+++++
Seeing that the battleship was about to fall, Akka turned around and pulled up the joystick. At this moment, another earth-shattering explosion occurred. The mothership broke through the defense layer of the central computer and hit the "Father"'s computer tower. The dazzling blue light burst out in an instant, like a tsunami of energy, overturning all the flying machines in the air.
The tsunami of energy radiated layer by layer like a chain reaction, first flying the broken mothership, and then the ground of the entire steel country cracked, staggered, and exploded.
Akka has not yet realized that he is witnessing the birth of history, and the first major turning point of the mechanical regime in three thousand years. His only thought is: he has already arrived here, and he must save his life no matter what.
All the positioning facilities had failed. He couldn't see where the sky was and where the ground was. He could only instinctively rely on his intuition and trust Blackstone's driving.
The huge wave of energy first swept the entire battleship into the air, and they became gravel in the tide, and were swept away into the distance.
In the end, all the blue light disappeared, and in front of him was the earth that kept spinning.
+++++
The spaceship dragged the billowing smoke and rushed towards a barren plain. First, it hit a mountain on its flanks, then fell off a cliff and then fell into a big river in the violent turbulence.
With a loud "Boom", water rushed in frantically, Akka got up in a daze, grabbed Hei Shi's hand, and turned on the escape pod button. However, the hatch was stuck.
"Blackstone!" Akka yelled.
Blackstone was unconscious.
"Damn it!" Akka kicked a few times, and the water flow became bigger and bigger. He carried the black stone on his back to find an exit. The black stone is too heavy, as heavy as an iron plate. The two were trapped in the battleship, and the water level was getting higher and higher. Hei Shi was agitated by the water, suddenly opened his eyes, put his backhand around Akka's waist, and kicked his feet. The bottom kicked out.
The two rushed out of the water, were dazed by the current on the river, and finally climbed ashore with difficulty.
Akka coughed out a few saliva in embarrassment and looked at Heishi, and the two couldn't help laughing.
"Hahahaha—" Akka didn't know why, he was out of breath with laughter, and Hei Shi couldn't help but smile, wiped the water on his face, and sat on the stone.
+++++
This is a barren plain, and they are still in the realm of the Iron Nation. Akka observed the direction of the sun and determined the orientation. The two stood on a high place and looked at the road in the distance.
Thick smoke billowed from the east of the plain, and the final collision between "Father" and the clone mothership caused a momentary space distortion, sending them 400 kilometers away from the City of Machines. There are also many falling meteor-like mechanical weapons embedded in the craters of the earth.
Akka removed some useful parts from the mechanical wreck, melted it in an atomic furnace, and forged a new small wrench. He thought of Robot K, and he had so many questions that his brain would explode.
Why is K there?
There is someone in K! Akka came back to his senses, remembering the words it said to himself, there must be a person driving. However, why does this person know them? Or because of the war, someone accidentally discovered K in the reef cave, and then drove it to fight, accidentally saving himself and Blackstone?
Akka couldn't understand no matter how much he thought about it, so he had to give up temporarily. Previously, his only thought was to find a nuclear fusion engine for K, but now there are nuclear fusion engines everywhere, but they can't be used.
"I'm leaving." Heishi suddenly said.
"Where to?" Akka asked, and immediately realized that the next conversation must be a repetition of "it has nothing to do with you". Akka was about to be blown up by this popularity, and he shouldn't have saved him in the first place.
"I saved you from the sea!" Akka said, "and saved your life in the living quarters! Can't you be polite to me?!"
"I also saved you several times, it's even!" Heishi said.
Akka said: "Where do you have it? If I hadn't brought you out..."
Blackstone and Akka stood tit-for-tat, and Akka suddenly realized that there was no point in arguing. On the way just now, without Blackstone, Akka couldn't survive on his own, but without him, Blackstone couldn't find a way out.
"Forget it, don't mention this." Akka said helplessly, "Where are you going?"
"I have a mission." Blackstone said.
Akka moved in his heart and asked, "What mission? Do you remember your identity?"
Heishi looked into the distance hesitantly, and finally shook his head slowly. Akka asked, "What do you remember?"
Heishi said: "No, I just know that I have a mission."
Akka said: "That's it, you don't know what the mission is, where are you going?"
Hei Shi looked a little irritable, Akka wanted to pat him on the shoulder, but Hei Shi stepped aside and avoided.
+++++
Akka didn't bother to talk to the lunatic. He jumped off the rock and inspected the mechanical wreckage scattered on the plain. After a while, he saw the black stone also came down, walking around in the wilderness, aimlessly.
"You are not familiar with this world at all," Akka shouted, "and there is no destination, don't wander! If you get lost, you can't do anything!"
Black Stone picked up a stone, threw it in his hand, and suddenly threw it into the distance, letting out an indignant roar.
Akka vaguely understood Blackstone's mood.
A person who has no past, no future, does not know what he is called, that kind of daze and distress, like a devil, will make people very uncomfortable.
"Hey, man," Akka said, walking over, "don't do that."
Heishi's whole body was tense, and after hearing Akka's voice, he gradually relaxed, and gave Akka a cold glance.
"Where are you going?" Blackstone asked.
"I don't know," Akka said with a smile, "I finally escaped, didn't I? The world is so big, there is always a place to go, you still owe me two lives, why don't you go together."
Black Stone said coldly, "I don't owe anyone's life."
Akka insisted: "I saved you twice."
Guessing that Black Stone shot again instantly, covering Akka's head with his palm.
Akka: "?"
Black Stone said lightly, "One time."
Akka: "…"
Blackstone took his hand away and covered it again.
"Twice, I saved you twice."
Black Stone walked away, A-Ka frantically said: "What does this mean?!"
Hei Shi turned his head back and said, "I could have killed you just now!"
Akka was completely speechless.
+++++
Three hours later, Akka was struggling to dismantle a mecha, and Black Stone was still wandering aimlessly nearby, but he didn't come to help or go far. Akka yelled, "Can't you do me a favor?!"
Heishi said: "Say 'please'."
Akka said helplessly: "Please."
Hei Shi grabbed the arm of the mecha and threw it on the ground. Akka looked at the black stone, thinking that this man has a lot of strength. But he's neither a clone nor a robot... A clone's blood won't be red, and a robot won't bleed.
This time Blackstone didn't leave. He stood aside watching Akka dismantle the parts, without asking or speaking, until Akka assembled a laser gun, handed it to Blackstone, and said, "You have to take self-defense with this."
Blackstone looked at the laser pistol for a while, then took it, imitating the costumes of those clones, pinning the gun to his waist.
"After leaving here, we have to pass through the sphere of influence of the City of Steel and head west." Akka said to Blackstone, "Go to the new continent to survive."
"When are you going?" Blackstone asked impatiently.
Akka explained patiently: "Be well-prepared, or you will die halfway through."
Heishi said: "You will die, I will not."
Akka said angrily, "You won't, go by yourself."
Black Stone scoffed, and suddenly asked again, "Are they dead?"
"Who?" A-Ka immediately realized the current situation in the City of Machinery. He is also not sure about the "Father", but the knowledge he has learned since childhood tells him that "Father" is almighty. The computer tower on the ground is only part of the "father", and the larger fuselage is still buried in the ground.
Akka really wasn't sure, so he could only briefly explain it to Blackstone. He remembered the chip that the old doctor gave him, so he took it out and studied it carefully. Of course, neither of them could explain the reason. Come, Blackstone has no interest in the chip at all, so Akka has to put it away again.
As night fell, they turned on the atomic furnace under the wreckage of the machine, snuggling up to keep warm. Black Stone returned to the river, shot a few mutated fish with a laser gun, brought it back and threw it in front of Akka, and let him bake it. Because these fish grew up in industrial wastewater, there are a lot of heavy metal elements in their bodies. Akka only ate a little, and did not let Black Stone eat too much, so as not to poison the two, and then hid in the mechanical wreckage and slept.
In the middle of the night, it snowed heavily on the plain, and the north wind blew in the wilderness. Akka was shivering with cold, but he didn't know where the black stone went. He shrank into the mechanical wreckage, trying to hide himself in the wind. It was so cold that he felt like he was freezing.
Just when Akka was so cold that he almost had hallucinations before his eyes, a warm body came in and pressed his back against him.
"Where have you been..." Akka asked vaguely.
"It has nothing to do with you." Blackstone replied in a cold voice. Akka was so cold that his teeth were fighting and he couldn't stand it. He burrowed into Heishi's arms and felt that his chest was like a hot atomic furnace. After a long time, he finally warmed up and fell asleep peacefully.
The next day, Akka woke up from the cold, and when the sun was in the center of the sky, Black Stone came back.
Akka shrank out of the ruins of the mecha, and found that Blackstone was dragging the feet of a clone corpse, dragged the corpse back, and threw it in front of him.
Blackstone: "Eat it."
Akka: "Stop joking! How can you eat people?"
Blackstone: "He's not the same as you."
Akka knows that clones are actually a combination of various proteins for humans, not to mention dead clones. However, he looked at the frozen blue-purple face of the clone and couldn't help it. Eat a creature that is about the same size and appearance as a human.
"I... I don't eat," Akka said.
"Then I'll eat it myself." Heishi said.
Akka yelled frantically, "If you eat this clone, stop talking to me!"
Hei Shi said, "Why are you so troublesome?"
Akka said angrily, "You can't eat clones anyway."
Akka couldn't accept the process of Black Stone sawing off a "human" leg in front of him and then roasting it and eating it. Blackstone hesitated for a moment, but finally gave up the clone's body and went to find other food.
They were not the only ones who were swept up on the plains, but unfortunately, the living creatures inside of the machines that contained clone soldiers died. Blackstone detached an arm from the mecha and tried to wave it, with a little difficulty.
Akka said, "Don't bring anything too big, do you like heavy weapons?"
Blackstone didn't speak.
Akka laughed and helped him remove a long steel plate and welded the handle. Black Stone tried it out, and with a whirring sound, he carried it behind his back, like a broad sword.
"Let's go." Akka sorted out his temporary satchel, which contained a compass, a healing supplement box used by clones, some injection-type stimulants, a portable energy stove and electromagnetic repair tools such as wrenches and screwdrivers, and a Set of magnetic field generators.
"What are you doing with these?" Blackstone asked indifferently, "I can't even carry it myself."
It was indeed a bit difficult for Akka to carry so many things, but he insisted: "A mechanic's repair tool is equivalent to a soldier's gun. It will come in handy in the future."
The large tracts of snow on the plain were dazzlingly white, and Blackstone put on a pair of sunglasses taken from clone soldiers and stepped into a new unknown world with Akka.
