Chapter Twenty-Four: The Witch, the Servant, and the Prophecy
"Lord, Lord. The servant, the servant will admit that the master has never been, this is impossible, absolutely impossible! Servants are the last line of defense guarding this world, they are supposed to be ruthless and ruthless. It's emotionless."
"They will never obey anyone. All they do should always be monster hunting."
"No, no, no, no! Another possibility, prophecy, prophecy! Prophecy! Prophecy! That's right. Hahaha! The prophecy turned out to be true. You're the one. You are the one chosen by the prophecy!! ”
The ragged old man seemed to have completely fallen into madness, and it was useless for Liao Ji to communicate, and the old man seemed to be too excited In the process of waving his hands and feet, Liao Ji noticed that there was a big hole in the old man's abdomen that was punctured by a blunt object.
This wound was only roughly covered with a strip of cloth before, but now because of the old man's dancing body, the wound was torn, and it was already bloody, and under the conditions of this world, it can be said that he was sentenced to death.
"Ahem, ahem, if it's you, maybe you can take this and hold this, please go and save my gathering place. Go there and get your answers."
The old man was already coughing as he spoke, blood foam overflowed from the corners of his mouth, and he seemed to use his last strength to take out a parchment map from his arms that had long been stained red with blood, as if he could no longer hold on, and fell to the ground with a thud.
And then, a magical scene appeared, only to see the old man who had lost the breath of life, the corpse began to turn into sand grains, in a few seconds, it was like a collapsed sand castle, the sand grains were scattered into the ground, and finally merged into this barren land.
At the same time, Liao Ji looked at the corpse of the dinosaur that had just been shot by 86, whether it was a turbid monster or a human, it was in the same form after death, all of them turned into grains of sand, or they were blown by the wind, dissipated with the wind, or sank into the ground without a trace.
Obviously, this is the end of the death of the aborigines in Dream Zero.
After all, they're just strings of virtual data, right?
Liao Ji looked down at the blood-stained map that the old man had just desperately stuffed into him.
A lot of the map was stained with blood and couldn't see clearly, but fortunately, there was 86 next to it, and after comparing and restoring, Liao Ji found that the area he was in now was called
Witch Collar.
According to the map, the gathering place mentioned by the old man is almost a dozen kilometers to the southwest of them, and in addition, the only one on the map, in addition to the terrain, is marked with a dazzling big black circle, in a church in the north?
Liao Ji looked at the location of the black circle on the map, and what was circled inside was a building with a cross, but the strange thing was that it was obviously a church, but combined with the old man's sentence "The servants were all killed by the witch" before, as well as the name of this area, this black circle should be the witch's lair.
Analogous to the game, it's a regional boss or something, right?
In addition to "witch", Liao Ji recalled the old man's words before his death, and the word that appeared more frequently was "machine servant".
Machine Servant, Mechanical Maid.
Liao Ji looked at the old man's appearance, obviously it was not the first time he had seen 86, and even on the contrary, it seemed that he had seen many times and "many".
So are there many maids like 86 in this world? And the reason why they exist is to fight against turbidity? corresponds to the old man's sentence "the last line of defense to protect the world"?
But that's weird, this is Zero's dream, and a "sister" maid like 86 should be under the control of Zero as a "sister", isn't that zero fighting against herself?
Moreover, basically the "last line of defense" is used to describe the situation, the situation is extremely unoptimistic, assuming that there are really countless 86 such combat power, what kind of powerful "witch" must be to destroy these fighting machines?
As for the final one, there is the "prophecy".
Liao Ji thought at first that the prophecy in the old man's mouth was referring to the Ash Emperor, which was a "dream awakening" mechanism of Zero? After all, he is the only one who can make these servants recognize their masters.
But later, when the old man said that he was "the person chosen by the prophecy", Liao Ji immediately reacted, and this prophecy did not come from zero.
After all, for Zero, the word "chosen" would never be put on the body of the Ash Emperor.
So.
Witches, servants and more. Prophecy.
The three points of information summarized and extracted from the old man are the direction that Liao Ji is going to investigate next, and after a long breath, Liao Ji put away the map, took the maid, and walked towards the gathering place of the old man on the map.
The other person tells himself that there is the answer he wants there. Although it is likely that it was used to trick him into passing, the Lord doesn't care how that sentence came about.
As the master, Liao Ji cares more about it now
"86, do you have any good solutions for these more than ten kilometers of road?" The young man looked at the desolate land that seemed to be endless as far as the eye could see, and rubbed his temples with his head on the ground.
Dream Zero is one-to-one with real time, and it has a strong sense of realism, and if they really rely on walking through, they will have to waste a lot of their time just dealing with the turbid monsters they encounter along the way.
Fortunately, the almighty 86 gave a solution, only to see the maid nodded, and then under Liao Ji's surprised gaze, he actually directly looked like a motorcycle man, and began to deform rapidly, and after just a few blinks of an eye, the previous mechanical maid disappeared, and was replaced by a brand new one in front of Liao Ji
Ocean blue motorcycle.
Cool sense of science and technology, fluid mechanics modeling, there are twelve accelerator tubes behind the motorcycle, no man can refuse a motorcycle, Liao Ji didn't say a word, immediately rode on, the screen in front of the motorcycle automatically lit up, and it showed Liao Ji a variety of other functions of the motorcycle, including the weapon system, which can unfold various machine guns and floating guns with the motorcycle.
"86, can you achieve this function in reality?"
"Woooooooo I'm sorry master, but in reality, 86's body is not perfect and cannot perform similar operations. ”
"Eager to try. But if you just want to ride the 86, then the 86 thinks that the 86 can meet the owner's needs for various rides without this function. ”
As if trying to express his excitement, the blue fluorescence of the motorcycle flickered again and again.
Liao Ji felt that he really had to let 86 have less contact with Irene in the future, otherwise a good maid would become full of sassy words.
As Liao Ji turned the accelerator, the blue light of the motorcycle instantly triumphed, and after a "buzzing" roar, the motorcycle carried Liao Ji into a blue lightning bolt and galloped in this dark red world.
Happy Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone!
