An ocean-blue, yellow-and-green beach shirt with the same shade of beach shorts, and a pair of bare feet, this is the outfit that only a person who is sunbathing on the beach would have, but the one who is wearing this body now is not only not on the sunny beach, but it is not a human being.

The dim lights, the thick fog, and the slightly noisy sound of machinery, who would have thought that in this environment, a robot dressed in a suit that did not match the surrounding environment at all, and a tranquilizer gun in his arms, appeared in front of the turtledove, and the whole style of painting suddenly became strange.

Needless to say, it was this robot that fired a tranquilizer bullet on the back of the turtledove.

The contrasting style of painting made Ikaruga wonder if he was hallucinating due to the effect of the anesthetic, or if the fourth side effect of the "universal serum" had unknowingly exploded, otherwise he really didn't know how to explain all this in front of him.

"What...... What the hell ......"

Turtledove shook his head, trying to see if he could shake himself sober, but when he looked up again, the robot on the other side had not disappeared, so Turtledove raised his hand and pumped his two big mouths, but unfortunately the anesthetic made the muscles of his arm unable to exert a little force, and he didn't feel pain when he slapped his face.

"What should I do now?"

Since he didn't hurt himself, the turtledove couldn't tell whether it was an illusion or not, and at this point he suddenly had an idea, and bit his tongue with the tip of his tongue, - good fellow, it turned out that it was not his own hallucination!

In order to ensure that he could bite the tip of his tongue, the turtledove deliberately used a lot of strength, and this time he bit himself, so he almost didn't bite off the small half of his tongue, and the deep imprint was completely embedded in the tongue, and he bleed on the spot.

"Phew!"

Turtledove spat out a mouthful of bloody spit to the side, confirming that the robot in a beachsuit was not a hallucination, it was real.

……

Despite the high level of simulation, the robot is able to tell at a glance that it is not human, for the simple reason that all living beings have a unique look in their eyes, which many people like to call "souls", and from a certain point of view, it is not unavoidable.

Robots don't have souls, so their eyes can't be bright, but the robot standing a few meters away has no eyes, but the turtledove clearly sees a look called "shock" on its face.

What is it shocking? It was shocking how the turtledove had not been numbed by the anesthetic.

After coming to this underground research institute, Ikaruga has seen a lot of robots, such as a bionic working robot wearing a work suit, a low-level robot engaged in cleaning work, and an explosion-proof robot that specializes in fighting various experimental subjects, as well as a riot control robot that is nearly 30 meters tall.

These robots have all seen it with their own eyes, even if it is a riot suppression robot that combines power and advanced intelligence, it is still just a robot after all, and Turtledove has never seen any expression on Ali's face, - of course, the metal head of the riot suppression robot is bare, and it is not covered with silicone, and it has no ability to make any expressions even if it wants to.

However, silicone is secondary, the important thing is that having an expression means that it has a certain degree of thinking ability, and the so-called "intelligence" of robots is more of an information feedback mechanism, they can't think, they can't understand what they are doing at all.

The robot in front of him was different, and the turtledove knew it could think, at least that was how it felt to the turtledove.

Ikaruga was shocked by the difference of this robot, and this robot was also shocked by the resistance of Ikaruga to anesthetics, staring at each other with wide eyes and small eyes, and just staring at each other for about a minute.

……

"Y-What do you want to do?"

After staring for a long time, the turtledove finally spoke.

Judging from the tranquilizer gun in the other party's hand, it is estimated that the worm was taken away by it, but fortunately, the anesthetic gun will not be fatal, so the worm should still be alive, and if the turtledove wants to save the worm, he has to make a good idea on this robot.

The first thing to do is to talk to the other party.

The turtledove didn't know what the other party's reason was, so he stood there for a long time, and according to the current situation of the turtledove, if the robot wanted to make any unfavorable moves against him, the turtledove didn't have the ability to resist at all.

Fortunately, the robot did not take the next step for the time being, and the turtledove had to seize the opportunity to delay as much time as possible before the other party made a decision, because the turtledove could clearly feel that the effect of the anesthetic in his body was rapidly decreasing.

Maybe it's the effect of the rage, maybe it's the "universal serum" that works, or maybe the fast-acting anesthetic itself comes and goes quickly, but in any case, it only takes a little more time for the turtledove to get back on its feet.

At that time, how could a turtledove with defense be shot by something like a tranquilizer gun, its rate of fire was far worse than that of a gunpowder gun.

The robot didn't answer the turtledove's question, it still stood there silently, as if thinking about something.

"Hey, what's your name?"

Seeing that the other party didn't have the intention of doing anything, the turtledove simply pulled away from the robot, anyway, it doesn't take too much effort to move the mouth, if you can exchange the life of yourself and the worm with your mouth, the turtledove is willing to babble for three days and three nights.

"I can see that you have no ill will," Turtledove then chattered with the robot, "I don't have any ill will towards you, by the way, my name is Turtledove, did you also capture the little girl in front of you?" Don't worry, I don't have a good relationship with her, and it's just what I want when you take her away. ”

"I'll tell you the truth, I was forced to come here by that dead girl, if I had known that this was your territory, I wouldn't have been able to trespass here, right, I still don't know your name, it's not that I have to dwell on this issue, you see I've said so much, why don't you react at all?"

“……”

chattering, chattering, turtledove tossed and turned with the robot to talk about the car, talking and talking about his own tired, dry mouth licking lips, and finally turtledove really can't go on, the robot on the opposite side is still the same as at the beginning, and he didn't move in the middle.

"It can't be out of power, right?"

Thinking so in his heart, the turtledove kept talking, and secretly moved his arms and legs slightly, he found that the strength of the anesthetic was really over, so the turtledove quietly touched the fire axe beside him, ready to take the opportunity to rush over and chop the other party to pieces.
