Chapter 23: Written Before the Great War (7)
In the dark,
A weakly lit arm lit up, and the blue light flickered, as if it were nothing.
The slender arms of the machine, the sturdy metal shell and the central device connecting the body stand out, and it is here that a faint blue light shines.
This also means that the owner of this hand is running out of time.
Drops –
On a transparent screen floating in the air, the robot's identity was confirmed.
【Downton Technology, Glory District, Lilia Niemann】
A serious female voice speaks of the body to which this mechanical arm belongs.
And she is now located in the so-called [Glory District Central Teleportation Hub].
With the black robe, no one can see her face, and no one can guess where she belongs.
It seems that in the world of magic, such a high-tech arm seems out of place.
However, in the year 2086 of the principality after the era of destruction, anything is possible, and the loss of human spiritual power means the loss of the gifts of the gods, and the arrogant self-proclaimed messengers of the gods by the prophets of calamity, in a vain attempt to push themselves to the altar.
And [Duchy 2086], everything is released in collapse and rebirth.
[Heading to——]
A serious female voice came from a transparent touch screen.
【Trench District】
The moment the female body said these three words, a feeling of weightlessness turned the black robe out of the wind, and the metal right eye on Lilia Niemann's face was bright red and bloody, and it was exposed with the moment the black robe flew up, and the scientific and technological progress of human body transformation technology is changing everyone in the Principality in the eighties of the 21st century step by step, including animals.
Immediately afterward, the aperture at Lilia's feet appeared, a special moving device, and a transparent glass tube appeared from the iron of the aperture, enveloping Lilia entirely.
Like a commodity in a factory, the transparent pipe capsule carries all kinds of silent [people] through the central teleportation hub of the Glory District at high speed, even for goods.
Tall metal buildings and roaring electronic sparks flashed, and a loud metal device made a noise passed horizontally in front of you like a behemoth.
Lilia kept her eyes on the front, inside the glass pipes of viscous liquid and rusty iron, she shot like bullets out of the towering Downton Tech buildings of the Principality, and headed for the lowest and dirtiest area of the Principality, the Trench.
In the vast ruins, all sorts of mechanically modified humans loom in the background. They all had a faint light on them, and a few of them were always incomplete.
The ruins flickered and disappeared from afar, it was not disappearing, but Lilia was moving at high speed, leaving the slum called [Shacheng District] where you could see it.
Suddenly, more "humans" riding the teleportation hub in the center of the Glory District, some looking at the floating screen in the mechanical arm, some looking up and thinking, some drooping their heads tiredly, and even a very small child leading a metal puppy from the hall of the teleportation hub in the center of the Glory District into the glass jar formed by the aperture.
They wore suits and leather shoes, and even the youngest children wore formal clothes, because when they lit up their robotic arms on transparent screen controllers, they showed enough identity to prove that they could live like this.
They are now carrying passengers.
【Rongguang District——】
【Rongguang District——】
【Rongguang District——】
Bursts of female voices proclaimed their noble status from the beginning.
And she seems to be the only one who goes to the [Trench District].
She was separated from the [transparent glass jars] she didn't know, and in just a moment, there were new passengers.
Lilia watched as the guards of Downton Tech entered the aperture with their guns, generally speaking, the inspection team formed by three people could control the entire low-end city without any new weapons and equipment, and now, it was the three of them, and the blades of the lasers were embedded in their mechanical arms like light teeth.
And for this kind of mechanical arm, there is a special name, that is, [Optical Load Manipulator], of course, few people will use this name to call their arm, but the [Light Load Core] of the Light Manipulator is widely allowed to be used in all walks of life, including weapons.
The sky is flying with the [Glory Patrol Machine] powered by the light-borne core, which regularly scans all the urban areas, and together with the inspection team of Downton Technology, it forms a tight defense system for the entire principality.
This squad is supposed to be in shifts with the next team, and they're heading to the Glory Sector together through the Central Hub.
They were somewhat leisurely off work, and Lilia in the black robe didn't pay more attention, except for one guard who looked at Lilia twice.
Lilia looked indifferent, it didn't take long to descend from the Glory District to the Celestial Trench District, but it seemed that several years had passed.
There have never been ancient birds in the distance, nor has there been a sunset, only the cold machines that patrol day and night, glowing like a stain under the artificial [Light Carrying Sun], and the light shines on people's bodies, with a disgusting temperature.
The distance from the Rongguang District to the Heavenly Trench District is an immeasurable abyss.
A criss-crossing network of bridges passes by. The transparent glass tube is like a bullet that you gleave over people's heads, flickering invisible.
People can see the people in the glass tube, and they can also be seen by the people in the glass tube, but no matter how they look at each other, it is also the distance between heaven and earth.
Floor upon floor, dirty houses criss-crossed.
One after another, the connecting bridges are closed.
They are filthy, they are filthy, they are always broken from union.
In vain lost beauty, there is only endless despair and suffocation.
Because everything in the Glory Zone is like an unreachable heavenly palace in the sky, and the flowers of civilization are colorful and splendid. And everywhere in other regions is a hotbed for insects, even if they are human, even if there is no possibility of heaven and earth intersecting.
[Arrival-Trench Area-]
The stiff and serious female voice came again, and Lilia saw the aperture shrink, the muffy-looking glass tube disappeared in an instant, and a platform port instantly came into view.
The ports are horizontal and vertical, and three words are pieced together with the rigidity of steel.
【Trench District】
Above the door plate, there is an insolent smiling face, which is the face of a fox, and it is terrible to imagine why it is so strange and abstract graffiti.
The Trench District was an area abandoned by the Duchy, but it was in the lower layer of the Glory District, but it was 108,000 miles away from the Glory District.
Destruction is the theme of the moat area.
Lilia is petite and delicate, with attractive long white hair.
Her black robe was finally no longer blown by the wind as she descended.
Her right hand was clenched tightly, and with a snap, the light gun in her right hand revealed a cyan bald head, and with just a single shot, it was able to make the new human with the light-loaded core go from existence to nothing.
Not to mention those humans who have already been eliminated.
Lilia resembles an indifferent warrior, the light-loaded core of her right hand taut and emitting a cyan glow.
It was the only cold light in this post-Age of Destruction.
