Chapter Forty-Six: Into the Darkness
"By the way, I've always wanted to ask, why do you keep calling this little ghost professor? Is he actually a professor? Suddenly, Wall's Jack came out of nowhere.
"No, it's just a nickname. Because he knows a lot of things that we don't know. Wang Xuanjun replied directly.
"It's just a nickname, I thought it was really a young genius in reality, and I was awarded the title of professor early." Jack said with an arrogant look on his face and tone of voice.
This made Xiao Chu very unhappy, in fact, he couldn't stand his superior attitude since yesterday.
"What, aren't you a ghost yourself." Said angrily at him.
"Who do you say is the imp?"
"Okay Jack. Nicknames are meant to be what you love to call what you want. Speaking of which, it's not good for me to always be a kid, and I'll call you a professor kid in the future. ”
Wall came over to round the scene, and Jack had to shut up when he saw Wall say this.
"Do you have to add a kid..."Chen Xingying whispered on the side.
Then, everyone began to act and came to the door of the room where Xiaoyu and Xiao Chu were attacked yesterday. After signaling to each other to be careful, they rushed in.
It's a medium-sized room, still filled with all kinds of incomprehensible devices.
After everyone cautiously took two steps forward, the red dot appeared.
"Now, hurry up and find cover and hide." Wall instructed.
The crowd hid behind cover and shot desperately at the front.
Chen Xingying was able to shoot at a normal distance because of the change to "Xiaoxin".
"You guys, don't shoot out of sight." As he spoke, Wall threw a flare at the red dot. The intense light instantly illuminated it clearly. I could see the myriad of small robots over there.
Now everyone can aim at the target and attack properly.
But although the efficiency here is very high, countless small robots have been destroyed, and even the wreckage of the small robots has been piled up.
But as new little robots are spawned, the number does not change at all.
The small robot swarm kept moving forward, regardless of the losses. After all, robots are not human soldiers, they are emotionless.
"Ah" The other party has gradually pressed closer, and a bullet almost hit Chen Xin directly.
"Are you okay, Sister Kobayashi?" Xiao Chu on the side asked worriedly.
"It's okay, don't worry about me." Chen Xin said and continued to shoot forward.
Xiao Chu's worries are not superfluous, after all, the person with the least familiarity with the use of firearms here should be Lin Chenxin, who is a novice on the road.
"Professor, this is endless, sooner or later our defense line will be broken through by infinite little robots." Xiaopeng shouted at the professor.
From the very beginning, Professor "......" observed the dynamics of the enemy while fighting.
Suddenly, it became pitch black again, and only the light of the little robot was visible. Wall was about to drop the next flare.
"Wait, Wall, don't throw it yet." Chen Xingying stopped him.
"Well, what's going on, professor boy?"
Chen Xingying seems to have discovered something.
The red dot is flashing... Sure enough, this is it.
Chen Xingying suddenly rushed out of cover alone.
"Hey, what are you doing? Don't rush over alone. But Xiaopeng's persuasion was useless.
The little robot seemed to sense Chen Xingying's movements, and all of them aimed their guns at him.
But it's too late, that's too soon. Chen Xingying directly teleported to one of the small robots, and took out "Xiaoxin" to destroy the robot at close range.
Then something magical happened, and all the other little robots actually stopped moving, lost their light, and collapsed there.
Seeing that there was no movement, everyone poked their heads out to inspect.
I saw Chen Xingying shine a flashlight on them, signaling that it was okay to let them come over.
Everyone walked to Chen Xingying together.
"All paralyzed, what's going on, Professor?" Chen Xin asked.
"Actually, I didn't notice it before. But I've always been convinced that they're not infinite. It wasn't until the moment the flare's light disappeared that I noticed something unusual, and it was only this machine.
Chen Xingying used a flashlight to shine on the little robot she had broken with her own hands just now. Only the red dots of his scan were flickering erratically. So I instantly understood that it must be through this machine to send signals and instructions to all the little robots around me. With the idea of giving it a try, I went straight up and killed the machine.
However, even if I guessed wrong, I would still be able to come back safely. ”
"Oh!" The crowd exclaimed.
"By the way, there is a difference in appearance between this robot and the small machines around it."
Everyone listened to Chen Xingying's words and shone a flashlight, and found that sure enough, compared to the upper part of the little robot that was damaged by Chen Xingying, there were obviously more horns that had always been like antennas.
"The command plane is like a swarm of bees." Xiaoyu said.
"Okay, anyway, we're breaking through here, let's move forward." Xiaopeng walked forward alone, signaling everyone to move forward by the way.
"Be careful, after this is the area fortified by the other party, I don't know what dangers will be hidden." Chen Xingying told him to walk slowly.
Everyone opened the door on the other side, and behind the door was still a narrow corridor.
Continue to move forward cautiously. After about a quarter of an hour, we finally came to the end.
"You stay out of the way, I'll open the door." Wall slowly pushed the door open sideways.
Suddenly, a blinding light came from behind the door.
Upon entering the room, everyone was stunned. What caught their eye was a large park.
Relaxing benches, rich landscaped gardens, and rockeries and a fountain in the middle, although the fountain does not spray water, it does not hide the ornate design of the water.
"What's going on? How did we get out there? Wang Xuanjun exclaimed
"No, look at it, look closely, it's an artificial sky." Xiaoyu pointed upwards and said.
Everyone looked up one by one to confirm that yes, if you look closely, there are indeed obvious traces of artificiality, but if you don't look carefully, you can't tell them at all, just like a real outdoor garden.
"Maybe this park is hiding some secret, Master!" Xiao Chu shouted at Chen Xingying.
"Well, it's possible, so let's look into it." Chen Xingying agreed with Xiao Chu's point of view, and then signaled to everyone.
……
But after almost an hour and a half of investigation, there was nothing special about this garden except that there were all kinds of different types of flowers and it was really beautiful.
Chen Xingying stared at the fountain in the middle for a long time.
"Professor, what's wrong with this fountain?" Chen Xin, who was passing by, saw him and walked up to ask.
"Hmm... Actually, there is nothing wrong with it, but the design of this fountain is a bit out of place compared to the park. Chen Xingying replied.
