This night, the entire city is discussing the name of the masked monster.

Some think he's dead, others think he's alive.

He seems to have become Schrödinger's cat, life and death are entangled in the quantum state, and if he is not observed, he has never been able to draw conclusions, and he is forever in the superposition of dead summer and living summer.

Of course, Susha was busy running for her life and didn't know anything about most of the discussions.

If he knew that he had become a physics beast for the time being, he would most likely be relieved for a moment.

Speculation about his true identity is also widely spread in various cities in the southwest region, and people are curious about what the face looks like under the mask.

Is it a high-level creature that has been rumored to have been missing for years, or is it some ordinary small city dweller?

Or is it not a face at all?

As long as the metal mask remains, his true face will never be seen.

It's like a cat, when you're not looking at it, does it still exist in the form of a cat?

When you close your eyes or turn your head, will it turn into another animal, such as a beautiful girl?

It's just that when you look at it, it turns into a normal cat again, let you observe.

Su Xia is the cat, and as long as his true appearance is not discovered, he can satisfy anyone's conjecture - some people even said on the Internet that Su Xia is his father who has been missing for many years.

In this way, a strange name [Mask Strange Cat] spread unconsciously.

"What, you say he's a cat?"

"No, it's just a cat metaphor, don't you understand?"

"Then why can't it be a wolf?" One person asked, "The masked monster is fierce and cunning, so it's not appropriate to use a cat as a metaphor." ”

"Whatever you want......"

Regardless, the cat metaphor is accepted by most people.

As long as he doesn't take off his mask for a day, his mystery prolongs for a day.

Many people are saying that he has been killed by the Automata and that his head will be hung in the central square of Coral City.

Therefore, someone has already planned the destination of the next trip.

"Let's go to Coral City!"

"It's not far from Seahorse City, so it can be regarded as a sister city."

"Why can't it be a sister city? Do you look down on sisters? ”

"Damn, where are there so many good ...... on the Internet?"

“……”

The night was not over, and the rain gradually stopped, leaving a wet world.

The people began to pack their things, intending to head to Coral City, where they waited for the cyborg to hang out the masked monster's head.

Soon, however, they got a strange piece of news.

"Something is wrong, why is the city still under lockdown?"

"What?"

"What do you mean?"

Someone tried to get out of the city, but before the car could reach the checkpoint, it was stopped by a patrol soldier from the Mech.

The atmosphere in the city is still tense, and martial law has not ended at all.

It can be seen that the mechanical base in the northern part of the city is brightly lit.

In addition, the same is true of several sub-bases around the city, and from time to time there is a violent roar.

"Buzz—buzz—"

One after another, the combat robots rushed out of the base, either finished repairs, or received ammunition and energy supplies, and flew into the distance again, drawing a cold arc in the sky, and soon disappeared into the vast night.

Looking at their directions, it is clear that they are all heading south!

The direction from which the big bang came from before was also southern.

"Why are there still robots flying over there? Hasn't the Masked Monster been killed yet? ”

"But the stance devices have been turned off, so it can't be that there is not enough energy, right?"

Everyone was puzzled and looked up at the sky.

Not long after, they were driven away by the mechanical soldiers on the road, and had to return to their respective organizations to wait for the latest news.

"Didn't the masked monsters get killed? All the news that came out before was fake? ”

For a while, news from all walks of life was flying all over the sky, and it was impossible to distinguish who was true and who was false.

Quite a few people realized that their previous conclusion was too early - the masked monster may not be dead yet!

It's just amazing.

After all this time, are Mask Monsters still fighting?

How could a flesh and blood body fight against a steel body for a long time, and if it was a normal fifth-level creature, it would have died of exhaustion, right?

Mystery flashed through everyone's minds, no matter how you look at it, it is impossible for the masked monster to hold out for such a long time.

"Boss Hu, did the mechanical clan send you a message?" Someone whispered and asked Hu Hanhai, a fifth-level creature with a better temper.

"No, keep waiting."

Hu Hanhai gave an affirmative answer.

He and Liu Jinjia were waiting, not only for news from the mechanical clan, but also for news from the tavern itself.

In the entire tavern branch, only the two of them knew that the wheelchair man, codenamed "Divine Stick", had already taken a group of high-level creatures from headquarters to hunt down the masked monsters.

It was a secret operation of the tavern to circumvent the censorship of the cyborgs and leave the city in a special way.

At this time, except for Seahorse City, which was waiting for news, the rest of the cities in the southwest were also waiting.

Coral City, Fish Scale City, Starfish City, Swordfish City, etc......

Seahorse City, as the source of the news, is in chaos, let alone these cities.

In these cities, many people are saying that Susha is dead, and many people are grieving.

Some people have even begun to cry and burn paper for him.

"Mask-sama, you can go all the way!"

Many people were sad, wept bitterly, and scattered handfuls of paper money all over the sky.

I don't know how Su Xia will feel when he learns about it - the person is still alive, and he actually has a fund reserve in the underworld in advance.

There are also people who are arguing loudly: "Death does not belong to the Mask Lord, death does not belong to us, it is the ...... who really deserve to die"

As Li Defu said, the entire southwest region has become a mess.

Not only in the southwest, but also in other places on the mainland, this matter is also being discussed, and many people have not slept all night, staying up in front of the television or other news channels, staying up until their eyes are red, just to wait for a result.

Before I knew it, it was five o'clock in the morning.

Southwest, Coral City.

In the north of the city, in the base of the mechanical clan, there was a sudden earth-shattering explosion.

"Boom ——!"

Immediately after, a silver-gray figure rose into the sky, let out a long roar, the voice was full of anger, and then the speed skyrocketed, shining with the fire of the thruster, like a burning star, heading straight for the south of the continent.

The loud bang and the scream shocked countless residents of the city.

You don't need to go out of the house, just stand by the window and look up at the night sky, and you can see that crazy burning figure.

"Who's that?" Many looked shocked, "Such a powerful psionic energy fluctuation, I have never experienced it in anyone. ”

"Is it Mercer?"

"It can only be him, Yu Tuo is not so strong!"

Everyone speculated that the instant burst of spiritual energy just now was too terrifying, which made them tremble.

The scream contained an almost crazy rage, like a volcano about to erupt.

"What's wrong with Mercer? Isn't he very cultivated, he always likes to wear a black tuxedo, like an old gentleman, how could he suddenly be so disregarded for his image? ”

The last time Mercer fought with Fan Lu, many people learned a little bit about Mercer from various aspects.

It can be said that Mercer pays considerable attention to the image at all times.

Even in a fight with a fifth-level creature like Fan Lu, Mercer's image never collapsed, and after an earth-shattering battle, there was not even a single stain on his black tuxedo.

As a result, his current gaffe is unusual.

"Is it a broken love?" Someone said as if he was joking.

"Are robots in love too?" Someone else asked.

"It's not certain, but there will be soft places in the heart of steel."

"And how are they going to have children?"

“……”

People were discussing their speculations, and it seemed that each one had a point.

However, within a few minutes, another explosion was heard throughout Coral City.

"Boom!"

This time, the noise was far louder than the last time, and the whole city shook violently.

Immediately after, a roar pierced the sky!

The people on the ground looked up and were shocked to find that the mecha air force belonging to Coral City was rising into the sky, following Mercer to the south.

At the same time, voices were heard from several sub-bases around Coral City.

The mechanical warriors who had been dormant in the past were awakened one by one.

"Wake up, my warriors!"

In the dark and boundless underground of the base, the voice echoed, and a pair of dark blue eyes lit up, cold and permeating, and there was no emotion in them.

Whether it is the ground troops, the air forces or the underground troops, they are all fully awakened at this moment, as if they are preparing for an earth-shattering battle.

Tens of thousands of mechanical armies walked out of the base, mighty and terrifying.

This is an invincible army!

Soon, the people of the city saw these terrifying warriors.

Seeing the boundless army of machines, many people's scalps were numb and panicked: "What's the matter? Why did the Cyborg suddenly have so many soldiers? ”

Someone replied, "There are so many, but they are usually asleep and don't let us see them." ”

"Is something big wrong?"

"Why are they all awake?"

", wait, not only our city, but also the armies of other urban mechanical clans!"

"What?"

"Is it time to encircle and suppress the last resistance of the Terrans?"

“……”

On this night, the entire city in the southwest region, countless mechanical clan bases, all erupted with brilliant blue light.

Countless mechanical soldiers have awakened from the ground and joined the terrifying and boundless torrent of machinery, from the sky to the earth, on a scale, with incredible momentum, and unparalleled momentum, as if to restart the war between the two races!

A doomsday aura of destruction enveloped the entire Southwest.

Countless people were shocked and frightened, and just by looking at the terrifying army, they felt their hearts tremble, and they almost suffocated.

What the hell are the cyborgs going to do?

With such a powerful force, which human organization can stop it at this stage?

Is it to fight against alien invaders?

"It can't be for the masked monsters, right?" Someone thought about it and quickly shook his head again.

How could the Machines have used such a large force to target someone?

The amount of energy required to set off the army is almost astronomical, and it is unimaginable for ordinary people to do it, just for the masked monster's cat, it is really not cost-effective.

……

At this time, Susha was flying in the vast wilderness south of Seahorse City.

His injuries were severe, and there were still a lot of fragments in his body that had not been removed, and it hurt to move lightly.

In the past, it was long overdue to find a private place to lie down and rest.

However, this night, a sense of death pressure always lingered in Su Xia's heart, pressing him faintly unwell.

He knew that the danger was not over and that he had to keep fleeing.

"Hoo ......"

Su Xia exhaled a breath of turbidity, stretched out his hand, and slowly held a large piece of metal on his chest.

This fragment, the surface skin of a mechanical aerial warrior, was very hard, and it had pierced Susha's chest in the previous melee, piercing through the front and back, shattering his sternum and several ribs.

The injury to his lungs was just as severe, and Su Xia was now fighting against the excruciating pain with every breath he took now.

This will not work.

If he is not removed, his body will always be in a state of serious injury, and it will be difficult to recover completely.

Su Xia gritted her teeth, grabbed the piece hard, and pulled it out violently!

"Click!"

The shards were pulled straight away, bringing out a pool of blood, and the jagged irregular edges were even bloodshot.

Su Xia trembled in pain, her face turned pale, but she was still conscious, and hurriedly asked the nanobot to catch the falling blood without leaving any trace.

The pain was unimaginable, as if it was about to dissect his whole being.

After the fragments were removed, there was only a bloody hole left in the chest, constantly dripping with blood, dripping with blood, and even broken bone stubble could be seen.

"Gurgling ......"

Su Xia raised his head and drank a few healing potions to promote the healing of the wound.

In a state of total weakness, not only did his spiritual strength drop to the bottom, but even his physical recovery speed was extremely slow.

This terrifying injury, if it is an ordinary person, ten deaths are not enough.

The excessive blood loss made Su Xia's eyes darken for a while, and feelings such as tiredness, weakness, and sleepiness poured out from all parts of his body, almost occupying his brain.

But he gritted his teeth and endured it, took out another scalpel, distracted and controlled, and tore and slashed his right shoulder.

The entire shoulder had been shattered, and the crumbs of clothes and blood clots had congealed together, making it so miserable that it was difficult to look at.

In a blur of wounds, Su Xia picked out some monocrystalline silicon and diamond slag embedded in the flesh.

It's all coming from those mechanical warriors who blew themselves up.

[Your vital signs are extremely low, you need to rest]

"I know, you don't want to rest?"

Su Xia ignored the message from the little robot and continued to deal with the injuries in various parts of her body.

As in the last time in Fish Scale City, there were some small fragments of flesh embedded in them, which were no longer visible from the outside due to the rapid healing of the wounds.

Previously, during the outbreak of the potion, Su Xia's injuries healed quite quickly.

This is also the reason why he was able to kill him in the encirclement and suppression of a group of mechanical soldiers.

"The Machines will not give up, especially Mercer, a proud man of his kind, will never be willing to defeat this time, and will definitely gather more forces to encircle and suppress me."

Su Xia was now well aware that he had to flee far enough or else he could easily find himself in a dangerous situation again.

The Cybromancers will mobilize a lot of manpower to search for him in the wilderness.

This time, it was not only Su Xia who was in danger, but also those rebel forces who had been hiding in the wilderness for a long time.

"It's time for my hive to hide." Su Xia suddenly thought of the two hives that his ugly clone managed.

In this encirclement storm, once those two hives are discovered, they will definitely be cleaned up by the mechanical clan.

Although he didn't like bugs, he had too little power in his hands now, so he had to do so.

……

Fish Scale City, Northern Wilderness.

Underground, worm nests.

Su Xia's ugly clone suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils were dark red, and his blood-colored wings spread out on his back, flying to the highest part of the nest, giving orders to all the insects.

"Enter the hidden space in the deepest part of the underground, block the entrances and exits, and don't leave for the past half a month!"
