The gray sky dome.

Desolate, parched red soil.

A drowsy sandstorm brews at the end of the sky.

Collapsed tall buildings are buried in the wasteland, and dark red rust spreads over the ruins of the steel city.

Green vines spread over the broken barrel, and a small white flower bloomed in the muzzle, swaying in the wind.

Off-road vehicles drive through vanished city roads, smoke billowing behind them.

Under the guidance of the cockroach brother, the car finally stopped at the door of an abandoned building.

The gate was boarded up, and I don't know if it was to prevent sandstorms or something else.

"Open the door, it's me."

In a short word, the identity has been confirmed.

The cockroach brother changed into a self-made big body and took Lu Wen into this building.

A pair of unfamiliar eyes, with scrutiny, cast on Lu Wen beside him.

Lu Wen was also looking at the building and the androids in it.

The interior of the building was dilapidated, with a little dust invading it, and in the corner there was a diesel generator, a few old wires, and a few light bulbs.

Androids don't need lighting, but such an environment is perhaps closer to a human atmosphere.

……

They were either lying on rusty iron plates or sitting on tattered sofas.

One by one, they were dressed in tatters, which made Lu Wen feel that he had come to the slums.

Some are missing arms, some are missing two legs, some are badly damaged, some have only half of their brains left, and all four chips are exposed.

Lu Wen also met the old man with a broken arm who fled for his life in Baida Plaza before.

"Together, these organizations can make the parliament temporarily give in?"

This was just Lu Wen's heart, and he didn't say it.

Brother Cockroach is obviously used to it, and to be here is to be home, and he is at ease.

"Dear families, compatriots, our organization, today there is one more member......" Brother Cockroach jumped on the abandoned front desk on the first floor of the building and began to give a passionate speech.

Let's start with Lu Wen's joining.

To the future development of the organization, a three-year plan, five years of hard work.

The goal of constant pursuit, the magnificent blueprint.

Talking endlessly, the mouth is like a river.

"How is this a bit like ......?"

Lu Wen remembered that he was almost tricked into some organization when he just graduated in his previous life, and later escaped by relying on keen details to find out.

But he looked around and saw that the androids had all looked at them, all looking expectantly.

Lu Wen suddenly understood.

These androids need a home, a stable home.

The abandoned edifice is not yet stable, and they have experienced many tragic things, whether they have been tortured by humans, or they have seen their companions fall in front of them, and they have gone through many hardships to find their own organization.

Only that unattainable goal can give them some solace in their hearts.

"Huh?"

Lu Wen frowned and looked up.

In the corridor on the second floor, a figure stood silently, looking at him with a scrutinizing gaze.

"It's ......"

This android looked a little different.

The biological material on the outside is not as real as the five generations of androids, and at a glance you can see that he is different from humans, and his facial features are also somewhat different from humans, and the two eyeballs have a very serious artificial texture.

Second generation?

And it's very high-numbered.

This android is a product of seventy years ago!

According to the time, Lu Wen can call his grandmother.

"My friend, come up and speak."

Same as Cockroach Brother.

This android can also type words directly in Lu Wen's mind.

Lu Wen is sure that he is not connected to the Internet, so there is only one possibility, the cracking program given to him by the cockroach brother has other incidental programs, of course, the cockroach brother should not have any other meaning, it is simply packaged for him.

"Wait a minute."

Lu Wen walked down the dusty winding staircase of the hall on the first floor to the second floor.

The man waited for him in front of the only remaining intact glass window on the second floor, the rest of which had long since been shattered and sealed with wooden and iron plates.

"You're going to ask about Zero?"

"You're the leader of this organization?"

The two looked at each other.

"Zero......" The man looked out the window, and the dust was flying in the distance, "Some people say that he is the first android to awaken, some people say that he is the first prototype of all androids, the A00 that was lost by Azure, and some people say that he is the disappeared generation of Azur and Xinhong, that is, one of the first generation of machines......"

She paused, her fingers tapping on the window.

Only then did Lu Wen realize that the metal bones exposed in the broken skin of her epidermis were already crawling with scarlet rust.

Time is the most terrible weapon in the world, no matter who has to be stabbed, you can't escape, you can't get out.

I don't see the beauty in the twilight, and I don't see the hero's white head.

"I've been to the north, and outside of the two northernmost human cities, there's a city that belongs to the androids, and it's called Eden, and I've heard them talk about Zero...... He was the most mysterious of androids, having been killed by the humans several times before reappearing, and his body was never found. ”

"There are rumors about him, which have appeared in all nine human cities, some say that he has an extreme hatred for humans, some say that he is looking for something, and some say that he is ...... He could be human, and he wanted to retain the human mind, to have a mechanical body, to be a god, to be immortal. ”

Mechanical Ascension?

Lu Wen suddenly thought of this word.

"My name is Sha Lin, this is what I know, in fact, many awakened androids who live a little longer know it, this is not a secret, thank you for bringing blue blood, we are very short of these materials." She turned her head to look at Lu Wen, one eye rolled, and the other eye was a little gray.

"You can't get it yourself?"

Lu Wen thought of the cockroach brother who swaggered on the airship.

It's all so high-profile, can't you take away a few buckets of blue blood?

"He's out on an airship again?" Sha Lin smiled, although she was a second-generation android, her emotional expression was already very anthropomorphic.

"There are only three human identities in our organization, and this airship belongs to one of them." She explained.

"Human identity?"

"Kill the original owner and replace the original owner."

A short sentence reminded Lu Wen of Li Meng, of course her situation was not like this.

She was still sleeping in the cold storage.

"But the original owners we killed were all forced to do so, and none of those good people were good." Seeing that Lu Wen didn't speak, Sha Lin explained.

"If you buy too many blue blood with one identity, you will be investigated, even if it is a private channel in a machine shop, it is very unsafe."

The android organization isn't doing well.

They survived in the ruins, looking forward to a second Eden in a day of panic.

There are countless such organizations in the vast wasteland.
