"It seems that this breeding area is indeed resisting something."
Faced with the rapidly changing dome lights and the harsh and shrill sirens, Joshua remained calm. In fact, whether he was facing the current unexpected situation or the previous Siberian people who were slaughtered as livestock, Joshua behaved very calmly. At most, he was surprised by the buildings and decorations made entirely of human matter. As for the other Yes, the soldier had no idea at all.
Because so far, he has not been able to confirm the truth of this world.
The Soul Puppet side has indeed done many incredible, frightening and disgusting things, whether it is brainwashing technicians and making them work for a day for decades, killing and recycling souls after death, or treating people as a source of materials and breeding them. Killing and even collecting the special bodies to obtain souls and super units are actions that make Joshua feel uncomfortable and disgusted as an intelligent life... But until now, he has not found conclusive evidence that the soul puppet is The evil side.
Sound incredible? But it is. Joshua, who has traveled to many worlds, especially the world of Grandia, knows that many things cannot be decided by 'right or wrong'... If the world of Hyboria collects souls and burns them in order to continue the existence of this world, How should he evaluate it? Furthermore, if it is said that the people in the breeding area are all clones, and there are a group of natural people in the outside world running all this, what can he say more
Joshua is a legendary strongman from the world of Mycroft, not from the world of Hyboria.
In order to survive, for the sake of the world, order and civilization will find their own way. No matter how bizarre and filthy this road is, it is their choice. The descendants from another world have no position of superior evaluation.
The above are all reasons that the warrior can reluctantly accept, so until now, he has not ignited anger, but looks at everything from an indifferent perspective.
But now, a conflict has arisen, and the party opposite the breeding area appears, and Joshua plans to go and take a look at the situation.
The huge soul puppet started, and it slowly walked towards the east where the huge explosion occurred. As this huge steel body walked, the surface of its body trembled slightly. It could be seen that many parts of Joshua's body surface were being fine-tuned. Some parts and structures disappear, others become thicker. Overall, Joshua's body became larger and more sophisticated.
With the power of steel, the warrior is optimizing and transforming his current carrier all the time. Every time he takes a step, he becomes stronger.
But halfway through, Joshua stopped. He frowned, as if he thought of something.
"My current appearance is still that of a soul puppet... I am in a hostile relationship with the party attacking the breeding area. If I walk past like this, I will definitely be regarded as an enemy."
All beings in the breeding area, whether soul puppets or the people being cultivated, are unable to communicate, but the attacking party might be able to. Joshua does not want to miss such an excellent opportunity to learn about the world. But changing one's own image is still a bit difficult for today's warriors. His body is not liquid metal yet and cannot be freely deformed. Even if it can, who knows if the attackers can detect it
After thinking for a few seconds, Joshua immediately thought of a seamless plan.
Turning around and returning to the maintenance area, Joshua came to the door of the sixth maintenance room. He opened the door and entered the dark maintenance room. The soldier walked to the bed of the unknown technician, then squatted down slightly and pressed his hand. On the opponent's head.
The next moment, the steel fragment located in the center of the soul puppet's chest began to rotate. The silver glow originating from Joshua and the purple-green light mixed with the fragments of Siberia were mixed together and released, and then poured into Wuming along the warrior's hand. in the mechanic's body. At this moment, a hazy halo appeared on the surface of the unknown mechanic's body, and the huge vitality was converted by the power of steel. It could be seen that the wound on the opponent's head that penetrated the brain was being repaired rapidly, just like the time flowing backwards. General.
A few seconds later, the wound on the unknown technician's head had basically healed, with only a little blood remaining. The stiff body became soft as if coming back to life, and the heartbeat could even be heard in the chest - but Joshua was still not satisfied. He controlled Infusing vitality into every cell of the body, the unknown technician's old face and pale hair suddenly began to change rapidly.
Muscles bulged, wrinkles disappeared, white hair fell off, and black hair grew back. Ten seconds later, when Joshua looked at the body of the unknown mechanic who was almost reborn as a boy, he felt that he had gone too far.
"A little too young... but that's okay, just pretending to be a kid from the Garden District."
This was Joshua's plan to resurrect the unknown mechanic's body and use his mind to control him to disguise himself as a Siberian and communicate with those who invaded the breeding area.
The mechanic's soul was taken into the soul abyss by Joshua. It was a weak and on the verge of being broken. It would take a long time to recover to the point where he could communicate, let alone be resurrected. But just in time, Joshua planned to borrow it. The other party's body, if this body still exists after solving the problem of the Steel Python Siberia, then he wouldn't mind helping the technician resurrect this young body - if the other party agrees.
At Joshua's current state, death and life, nothingness and existence are not absolute. He can resurrect the dead, create things from the void, and create life. He can project quality, influence the world, recreate the ecosystem, and reshape the ecosystem for an ordinary person. It is not difficult to return the body to the soul. He has actually been resurrected in several worlds.
On the bed, the black-haired boy slowly stood up. He opened his eyes, his eyes dim and rigid. But soon, as Joshua fell in love, a silver light flashed in the young man's eyes, and his eyes began to move, suddenly full of vitality and vitality.
"It feels okay."
Controlling the black-haired boy to get off the bed and take a few steps, the warrior felt like he was controlling a puppet... Generally speaking, they were carbon-based biological puppet machines, but with him, it was the other way around.
Joshua happily accepted the fact that he was a robot.
"The clothes are a bit big, but that's okay."
Using the nameless mechanic's own body matter as a rejuvenation resource, the body that returned to boyhood was naturally smaller than that of an adult, making the gray maintenance suit a bit too roomy. However, with Joshua's slight modifications, the roomy maintenance suit became It turned into a white robe like the child in the garden outside. Confirming that there was no problem with his control, Joshua nodded, then stretched out his hand, put the body on his shoulders, and walked out of the maintenance room. He walked toward the end of the garden area, the eastern breeding area.
It was only then that Joshua discovered that the garden area was actually very small.
This is a hemispherical area covered by a translucent glass dome, with a diameter of up to five kilometers. Except for the maintenance area, medical area and garden in the center, most of them are some inexplicable-looking buildings. They are boxy. Square, with no doors or windows, these extremely weird and uniform buildings stand like tombstones on the outside of the garden area, occupying about three-fifths of the area.
However, because Joshua could see electromagnetic signals and soul fluctuations, he quickly discovered that these tombstone-like phalanx buildings should be information relay stations for the soul puppets to issue tasks.
When he reached the edge of the hemispherical glass dome, Joshua did not see the door, so he punched, created a door, and walked out.
And just when the soldier took a step forward and arrived at the breeding area, he felt the oncoming hot wind and the indescribably bad air.
"The average temperature exceeds 35 degrees, and the density of fine dust in the air... makes it easy to get lung diseases."
Joshua with a mechanical body didn't care about dust, but the boy's body as his puppet couldn't ignore it. He felt strong discomfort. It was much better after the warrior created a dust-free zone to shield the dust.
One behind the other, inside and outside the dome, garden area and breeding area, they are basically two worlds. The temperature in the garden area is between 22 and 24 degrees, the air is fresh, almost free of dust and germs, and the light is bright and comfortable, while the average temperature in the breeding area outside the glass dome is 35 degrees As mentioned above, there is so much dust in the air that it can even be said to be air pollution. The germs are still within the normal range, but the light is dim and yellow, which greatly affects vision.
At this time, he looked around seriously and observed the world outside the garden.
There is an invisible boundary line between the breeding area and the garden area. In this approximately 500-meter-long boundary area, there are no objects or obstacles. It is completely blank and no one can avoid attracting attention. Crossing this boundary line, and beyond the boundary line, are lush vegetation and crops, they are swaying in the high temperature hot wind, as if they have long been accustomed to such an environment.
Joshua adjusted the focus of his mechanical eyes. He could see that they were pieces of land that had been adjusted and planned a long time ago. Each piece of land was square. Every few pieces of land like this, you could see a turbid road. The water channel, like a spider web, crosses every piece of land.
Every piece of land is exactly the same, at least in Joshua's eyes, their length and width are almost exactly the same, even those who work on the land are the same... The warrior can see that on the land closest to the garden area, There is a figure patrolling the fields, seemingly fertilizing. Although these male Siberians have different faces, their walking methods and movements are almost exactly the same. Their expressions are dull and numb, and the clothes they wear are also the same gray-brown color. Simple style.
Joshua did not stop. He picked up his feet and walked forward along the canal. He found that even if there was such a violent explosion at the edge of the eastern breeding area, the working Sibiya people did not react at all. They even There was no response to Joshua's arrival. Everyone was working in unison, like robots imitating each other. Qiao Xiu saw that behind the farmland, there were square houses with exactly the same architectural style. In each house, there was a female Siberian who was dealing with debris and carrying the finished crops. The only difference was that occasionally there were a few There are young children in each house, and women with young children will take care of the children and will not work.
Too average.
This was the only feeling Joshua felt.
The same land, the same canals, the same clothes, the same houses... Even the ratio of men to women is evenly distributed. When a man is paired with a woman, everyone is the same indifferent, and their eyes are also blank and empty, as if The Walking Dead.
The breeding area is extremely vast. In addition to growing plants, there are also pastures. The only thing that is fortunate is that Joshua did not see the human pastures he suspected. Behind the wooden fence, there are six-legged animals that look like hippopotamuses. Fat animals, although the herders are also Siberians without any human flavor, but at least, this is not the worst scene. Whether it is unintentional or intentional, the soul puppet and the existence behind it do not regard the Siberians as a source of meat, which makes Do Joshua, who had prepared for the worst, breathed a sigh of relief.
Of course, maybe the reason is just because the Siberian people don't have much meat, which is not nutritious and not delicious, that's all.
At this time, the flash of magic power could be heard in the distance. At this point, Joshua no longer continued to observe the situation in the breeding area. He stabilized the carbon-based puppet on his shoulder, cast a protective barrier for him, and then moved forward. Striding forward - the ground sunk, the water flow broke, and accompanied by the explosion of the air being torn apart, Joshua flew across the square farmland. In just a few minutes, the warrior had reached the edge of the battlefield.
This is the edge of the breeding area. A majestic black wall about twenty meters high extends to the end of the field of vision. It wraps up the entire breeding area and looks indestructible. But even such an indestructible wall was blasted with a gap of more than thirty meters, and the magma caused by the high temperature melting of the rock was still flowing.
It could be seen that there were many fortifications built inside and outside the city wall, but all of these fortifications were destroyed. Joshua could already hear the fierce sound of fighting. He raised his head and looked in the direction where the sound of fighting came from. Suddenly, He saw a dense army of soul puppets and a small group of distinctive Sibiya people.
There are more than five hundred soul puppets in the army. Each puppet is nearly two meters tall. They are armed to the teeth, equipped with thick metal armor all over their bodies. Some puppets even hold strong counterattack shields. These puppets all hold different weapons in their hands. The ones in the front are shields and metal swords, while the back row is a variety of magic equipment similar to furnace ray generators. Their movements are uniform, and they can advance and retreat in both offense and defense. Spend.
There is no doubt that the combat effectiveness of these puppets if placed in Mycroft's world would be comparable to the alchemy puppet army of the Church of the Seven Gods. However, at this time, such a puppet army was defeated by a Siberian army with only seven people. The team was completely contained and could only barely survive without being breached!
The long-range attack puppet in the back row simultaneously raised the ray generator in his hand, and rays of various colors flew out, including golden-red furnace rays, ice-blue solidification rays, and even the miserable green solution rays. There are also rays. These powerful ray attacks are endless with the exquisite cooperation of more than 300 soul puppets. It can be said that they are almost without interruption. However, as a girl in the Xibeiya team stood up, she raised her With his hands, countless ray attacks were all blocked by a shield glowing with sparkling white light.
The entire team was enveloped by a semicircular white shield. Various ray attacks fell on it, but not even a ripple could appear. The aftermath spread, and the surrounding ground either melted, condensed, or was completely dissolved. Leaving, but the team is safe and sound.
The morale of the puppets will not be affected by the invalid attack. Upon seeing this, the long-range puppets stopped shooting, and the melee puppets prepared in the front row all took out their weapons and prepared to charge forward. At the same time, as the shield fluctuated, a The tall white-haired Siberian old man walked out of the white protective cover. He looked old, but his whole body was full of muscles, and his body was shrouded in a light golden halo. The old man's body moved slightly, and he had already appeared. At the side of the soul puppet at the head, he stretched out his hand and placed it precisely on the puppet's chest, directly piercing the thick armor protection and extinguishing the opponent's soul core.
call! Countless swords, guns, swords and axes fell together, mixed with high-energy rays shot out of the air. The reaction speed of the puppets was far faster than that of humans. Just as the old man began to attack, they also began to fight back - I saw countless puppets swarming up, as if forming a A steel hill was built, surrounding the old man.
But the next moment, with a roar and explosion, the old man with a golden halo burning all over his body shook away all the surrounding puppets, and walked out. His fist turned into an afterimage, knocking away the five puppets around him, and his chest The armor was shattered and the core of the soul was extinguished.
"Extraordinary ability—the energy level is close to the gold level."
At the edge of the battlefield, Joshua raised his eyebrows as he observed this scene. He had already seen that the Sibiya people in front of him were extraordinary beings who had the authority of steel and obtained extraordinary power. They had normal intelligence and strong strength. Ordinary puppets are just a piece of scrap metal to them... But how could a soul puppet only have this little ability
On the other side, I saw that the white-haired old man alone blocked the impact of almost all the melee puppets, while the long-range puppets were almost unable to break through the white shield defense. After confirming that the puppet brigade was obviously defeated, several puppets were different from the other puppets from the beginning. The special puppet standing at the edge began to move.
"No. Snova-11 Harvest Type Application Super Unit Loading—"
"No. Snova-27 suppression type application super unit loading-"
"No. Snova-31 purge application super unit loading-"
"The application was approved, the super unit started loading, and the loading was successful."
"Start the extermination of 'non-compliance'."
Accompanied by slight electromagnetic signals and soul fluctuations that can only be heard by the puppet body, the three soul puppets with special numbers began to undergo various changes - it can be seen that the leader, number 11, ignored gravity and flew out of thin air, with a strong light blue Colorful light flashed around them, and accompanied by the sound of rocks cracking, the Siberian team protected by the white shield was shocked to find that the ground under their feet was torn apart by a huge force and turned into a floating island, and this The island suddenly flipped over, taking everyone upside down towards the ground!
At the same time, the puppet numbered 27 took a step forward. It calmly tore open the protective armor on its chest like an ordinary person tearing off its clothes. As the protective armor fell off, everyone present was stunned. A blazing golden-red fireball could be seen appearing in front of the soul core numbered 27. The terrifying high temperature surged, and all the surrounding dust turned into sparks and scattered in the air. After about one hundredth of a second of aiming time, the fireball roared directly towards the downturned Siberian team!
The puppet No. 31 did not have any shocking changes at first, but as the super unit was loaded, its original steel body suddenly began to vibrate crazily. At this time, No. 31 seemed to be blurred. As time went by, Waves of violent wind began to spin and entangle around it, until finally, No. 31 was completely enveloped by the rapidly rotating and vibrating storm. At this moment, it suddenly rushed towards the white-haired Xibo who suppressed almost all the melee puppets. Old Man Ya, they fought together in an instant. The rapid battle produced sound explosions, and a terrifying shock wave overflowed between the two and exploded.
Two extraordinary combat forces, mainly close combat, bombarded the ground. The farmland rolled up and the earth cracked. Countless sand and dust mixed with sewage from the canals were swept into the sky. There was a mud rain, but it was strange and inexplicable. Surprisingly, even though the fighting was so fierce, the Siberian people working in the surrounding fields and pastures ignored them and continued their work, even though their ear holes were bleeding and their eardrums were shattered by terrifying roars.
"That does not work!"
In the small island that was grabbed and knocked down by invisible telekinesis, a rather impatient male voice came out from the team shrouded in white shields: "This plantation has too many puppets in reserve. We have clearly eliminated several of them last time. There was a Snova-type super puppet, but now three more have appeared!"
"There are more than three. Look next to you. There is also a super puppet supervising the battle... Huh?"
"The captain's ability cannot last for more than an hour. We have been fighting for about half an hour... Considering the pursuit of the plantation puppets, we should retreat now."
"But just returning without success? We finally blew up the outer iron wall. If we can't go to the garden area to rescue a few compatriots, the losses will be too much!"
"Then I can only grit my teeth and endure it!"
boom! The lava fireball hit the white shield, and the young girl supporting the shield took a step back. She frowned, trembled all over, and blood spilled from the corner of her mouth, but she did not say a word. Seeing this, the voice calling for retreat became louder: "'Iron Wall' is overloaded. She is our only defender. The greater the loss, the greater the loss. We must retreat!"
Even though he was reluctant, the opposition was basically silenced now that the matter was over. As the decision was made, the white-haired old man who should be the captain suddenly exploded and punched the Storm Puppet several hundred meters away before breaking free. The opponent's entanglement returned to the white shield. At the same time, a cold and ruthless voice came from it: "We must consume the vitality of this plantation... We cannot come in vain."
"Let's do it, 'Magic Arrow'."
This suggestion was approved by almost everyone. As the eyes of a thin boy in the team glowed with light green, the entire white shield also flew into the air. The next moment, the Siberian team quickly headed towards Flying towards the surviving farmland and pastures on the side, another long-haired woman in the team stretched out her right hand. Gray beams of light condensed on the tips of her five fingers and shot out. Suddenly, hundreds of light arrows were seen falling from the sky. , landed accurately on all the Siberian people who were still working numbly!
In an instant, hundreds of Sibiya people died on the spot. Their heads or hearts were pierced by gray erosion light arrows, while this white light shield was still flying rapidly towards other places, killing them at an almost massacre speed. All the Siberians they could see. By the time the three super puppets adjusted their formation and prepared to catch up with their enemies again, this Siberian team had already killed thousands of people. At this time, they were returning to the wall at high speed. Gap, ready for a breakout.
"The losses this time are huge. I can only hope that the military commander will not punish..."
Sighs came from the white shield. The team preparing to retreat had almost passed through the gap. They were worrying about the unfinished mission and the enemy's tight defense. They were thinking about how to defeat those machines next time. The powerful super puppets passed through the puppet brigade and entered their destination, the core garden located in the center of the breeding area.
But at this moment, a low, clear, and cold voice sounded in all of their ears.
"Stop."
This voice seemed to come from the netherworld, and also seemed to come from the highest heaven. The unparalleled majesty was mixed with the terrifying and desperate spread of aura. Immediately, all the team members felt that their brains were twisted and confused, and they were completely unable to think. The white The shield flickered for a few times, and then disappeared directly, and the power supporting the shield also swayed, and in the end it could only allow them to land slightly gently.
"Damn it! The control system's...soul puppet!"
Among the team, there was only one young woman who looked quite sassy and had a strong soul and was relatively sober. Her eyes were full of disbelief and despair... How could it be? The most powerful soul puppets of the domination and control system should only be stationed in part of the plantations around the spiral tower located in the center of the world. Why are they here? On a remote, anonymous little plantation? !
Those super puppets are catching up... they are going to be torn into pieces and made into soul cores and super units...
Hazy, she was lying on the ground thinking this, but what came to her ears was not the uniform steps of the soul puppets, but the rapid sound of steel collisions and explosions. Vaguely, she could hear the air being penetrated. , the noise of the fireball being blown away, and she could also hear the crisp crackling sound of the mental barrier being shattered... Soon after, the sound of extremely heavy footsteps sounded in the silence, and finally arrived in front of her.
The woman raised her head with difficulty and looked upward. She saw a black-haired boy with extremely cold eyes, and... behind him, the burly and ferocious giant puppet.
"listen."
The woman felt her hair being roughly grabbed by someone, and half of her body was pulled up by a huge force. She could hear a suppressed voice of disgust and dissatisfaction echoing in her ears: "Answer my question."
"Why do you want to kill those ordinary people?"
