For the next few moments, the meeting fell silent for a short time, and everyone seemed to be stuck in a dead end.

They don't know what Gong Piqing and Hades have experienced, although Gong Piqing came back alone, there may be many endings after he returns; For example, when he came back alone, he said to them with a hippie smile: "Guys, I and Hades have succeeded in our mission, and I brought you back the Endless Energy Device, but I and Hades encountered a little setback when we came back, so Hades stayed to cover me, and it is estimated that he will be back soon, so don't worry......"

If he really said that, there wouldn't be so many people in this meeting frowning, trying to get something out of Gong Piqing's mouth in their heads.

But in fact? Gong Piqing has been crying and sad since he was discovered, but for him personally, his mission is successfully completed, he really brought the Endless Energy Device back from the Land of Machines, but if he is still unhappy, it can only mean that something unexpected has happened, and the grief in his heart drowns out the joy brought by the success of the mission.

And next to Gong Piqing, after Gong Piqing finished saying the words "Hades stayed to cover me", the old man's gaze slowly fell on the walnut-like metal ball placed in the center of the table.

The eyes of the others were locked on the old man, and everyone could see that the old man's eyes were already glowing with a sparkling color; His hand in the air trembled slightly, as if he couldn't believe it.

In other words, he couldn't believe that the Hades King had bought it at the cost of his own life was such a small iron ball that was not as big as an egg.

And if Gong Piqing came back with an oversized bucket-like endless energy device, they might have briefly focused on Gong Piqing.

But this time, what Gong Piqing brought back was just an empty team, an endless energy device like the small egg in his hand.

The old man's eyes seemed to be in disbelief, if the Hades really encountered danger in the Machine Realm this time, could it be that they worked desperately and even left their lives in the Demon Realm, but in the end they only brought back this small iron ball that looked full of ancient colors?

At some point, some other senior commanders, including Gong Piqing, could see that the old man didn't want to cry, but wanted to leave the meeting.

After all, he really treated Hades as his own child, and now Hades went on a mission and didn't come back, leaving only the lonely old man sitting in the sunset, looking at the night in front of him that was gradually engulfing dusk, and tears of emotion flowed in his eyes......

"I'll go and hand over the Endless Energy Device to the researchers, you talk first, and I'll go back." After speaking, the head of the ghost group got up and walked outside with the endless energy device that Gong Piqing had put on the table.

For a moment, there was only silence in the silent conference room.

"World Tree...... Let these unexpected situations go for a moment, and please report to us about the results of your mission first, okay? The head of the Ghost Team was the first to speak, breaking the tension that seemed to be a confrontation between the two enemy sides.

"I went to a small town called 'Neu' with the Immortal, and at first it was normal, I covered the Immortal with the search device of my mind, but in the end we couldn't finish the process due to some small things, and finally our eyes were fixed on an iron mine on the edge of the town."

"The Machine Lord has already laid a net for us there, and I found the corpses of myself and the members of my team during the original "Trip to the Demon Realm" project in the pit under the iron mine, as if someone had used some ability to create parallel space and killed all of us in that space.

"Parallel space? Your teammates? A senior commander asked, surprised.

Gong Piqing nodded slightly, "It's what we look like after we were trapped in a fantasy world, but in reality, we escaped and we in the story were buried below forever." ”

The senior commander in charge of the record nodded, "Okay, then moving on to the next question, you just said that you met the Machine Lord in the Machine Country, can the World Tree tell us about some of the characteristics of the Machine Lord?" We don't know anything about the image of the Machine Lord yet, so if you do, you can tell us about it. ”

"The Machine Lord does not have a fixed body, it is more like it exists in the form of an electric current or a stream of energy, and it can easily attach to a mechanical creature or something else along an unknown medium, thus terrifyingly strengthening that thing."

"Isn't that what you're capable of?" A senior commander stared at him and asked.

"Unlike me, my mutations and evolutions are based on physical bodies, and the Machine Lord, it can attach to those machines, and it can carry out the transfer and transformation of physical control without any warning at all."

"When I fought with Hades, it switched positions with those minions in this way, and after the sneak attack, I attacked Hades again, and we were all seriously injured, and Hades released his ultimate, covering me back in order to ensure that the mission did not fail."

"What? You're hurt! Where did you hurt? Let me see! A senior commander immediately asked with concern.

But in fact, even if he didn't ask, the others noticed the strangeness of Gong Piqing at the beginning of the meeting.

Because there has always been a thick exoskeleton on his chest, at first the members of the meeting thought that Gong Piqing had just gotten out of the mission and had not had time to remove the exoskeleton on his body, but now, as soon as Gong Piqing said that he was injured, there is no doubt that the wound may be in that place.

So, in front of all the senior commanders and the two department heads, Gong Piqing slowly unzipped the suit, revealing the layer of exoskeleton as thick as a slate on his chest and abdomen.

In fact, the commanders should have noticed this a long time ago, because this exoskeleton hung on Gong Piqing's chest and back was particularly abrupt, and they should have asked what was underneath it in the first place.

For some reason, when the exoskeleton was slowly fading, a smile actually appeared on Gong Piqing's face.

But the moment the exoskeleton completely fell off from his body, the smile on his face was suddenly turned hideous by the sharp pain caused by the pain; The air in the conference room suddenly filled with a hint of blood.

The exclamations of the commanders smashed into Gong Piqing's head like a hammer, and in the midst of the shouts, Gong Piqing felt that his consciousness was gradually blurred.

He didn't know how badly his body was injured, but even if he didn't think about it, he should be aware of it - the mechanical lord had obviously hit him in the back, but the wound had spread directly from the back to his chest...... It's just that his whole body was pierced by the mechanical lord's little iron pickaxe......

Oh, yes...... Even he couldn't bear the damage, so what could the Immortal do to survive the mechanical lord......
