179, sick girls

Before the sound of the system could end, several people fell to the bottom area due to the collapse of the ground.

The intricate steel bars above smashed down like icicles.

Cha Bai was the first to fall due to gravitational acceleration, caught Li Nuo, and then grabbed Su Mei, who had poor air retention with a floating hand.

The two members of the Resistance are in excellent physical fitness and are not afraid to fall from a height.

"Come here!"

Chabai dodged the falling steel bars, and found a notch in the dusty steel path to hide.

Several people hid inside, staring into the sky.

A floating mechanical body stands above the sky.

It is huge, about 6 meters tall, holding a large pure white magnetic energy railgun, its arms are connected to organic oil pipes, and its body is similar to the shape of a dragon's head, and the round head of a mechanical life form is blocked by its body, which looks funny and weird.

The guy turned to where Lino was hiding.

A high-pitched voice came out of his body:

"Locked the intruders - kill them - kill them - kill them β€”β€”!"

A large number of mechanical lifeforms crawled out of the narrow pipes.

Wren took out a skill card [Cooling Zone] and floated a circular field around him, and the temperature of things in this field plummeted.

"We've got three minutes to prepare...... "Wren said, "and in the meantime, these guys won't be able to lock down our position." ”

Miles bit his finger.

"I remember there are no such mechanical lifeforms, do I?"

Su Mei took out a pair of ring-shaped sunglasses like a track and put them on, and the lenses showed the analysis data of the floating mechanical lifeform.

"Strength question mark, the dragon head of the body is the core, and there is also a torrent cannon energy block in the body."

She paused.

"Oops...... This thing has a 'shielding system' start switch on its head. ”

"In other words, we have to kill it to end the mission."

"Hey...... Don't be impulsive. Miles looked at the two Resistances, "Are there any of your companions here?" ”

The Captain of the Resistance said, "There is a squad of twelve, but it has ...... I can't get in touch anymore. ”

Li Nuo glanced at the passage behind him.

There can't be only one way to clear the mission, and hard work is the most brainless, but the danger is too high.

In such a large factory, not to mention finding another way to clear the level, even if you can find a hidden exit route or item reward, it is worth it.

"Captain and Dora come with us." He said and threw out [Zero Five].

Su Mei caught the technological sniper rifle and touched the gray body: "Awesome...... Cybertech weapons, you've been to Cyberpunk? ”

Li Nuo didn't answer her, it didn't matter.

He gave the [Daybreak God Cannon] to Miles.

"The three of you are troubled to contain that floating mechanical creature, let's find other ways to clear the customs, the factory is so big, maybe there are trigger conditions that can be solved without hard fighting." Li Nuo paused for a moment and said, "Pay attention to life safety, don't fight hard." ”

He weighed the outcome of the battle when he saw the floating mechanical lifeform and the railgun.

Looking at this place from near the bomb shelter, the collapse of the factory tower is supposed to be the masterpiece of this mechanical lifeform.

Its combat effectiveness is excellent, its strength is full, and it is impossible to win without bloodshed and without death.

What's more, there are a large number of mechanical lifeforms here, which cannot be singled out, and are bound to be harassed by mobs, as long as there is a distraction, the floating mechanical lifeform can be killed with one blow.

He was sure that there were some items of tactical value hidden here, skills, equipment, and even story items, and it was possible to find one in the shortest possible time, and then quickly turn back to deal with the monster.

Miles pulls the trigger with both guns, and the blade pops out of the back of the gun and stands on the muzzle, and the chamber spews flames to enchant the blade. He tied the [Cannon of the God of Dawn] to the strap behind him, and said with a smile, "If I die, I will be buried with this cannon of yours." ”

As soon as the words fell, Miles stepped forward, immediately attracting the attention of the mechanical lifeforms, and immediately began to fight.

Wren and Sumi followed.

"Hey...... It's too easy to talk to......" Li Nuo originally thought it would take a little bit of speech, but he turned his head: "The captain and Dora follow us. ”

Then he ran towards the passage behind him, leaned forward, moved at high speed, and leaped into the passage with a hurdle-like motion.

Cha Bai grabbed the two resistance soldiers and followed.

Four people entered the inside of the factory.

Outside, there was gunfire.

Wren rushed in front, the long sword was a European-style straight sword, the name was simple, it was called [Straight Sword], and the sword body was shining with thunder spots. The attack method is straightforward, without a little false move, and the fight is a skillful one.

Miles followed, fast and swift, slicing through the robot's body with twin knives in his hands.

The two of them cooperated to fight their way out of the mechanical lifeform.

Su Mei opened [optical camouflage] in the rear and put a gun in the dark to cover.

Melee combat, ranged, and cooperation, as if it is not the first time to cooperate, in fact, it is because they are too familiar with their own strengths and weaknesses to quickly enter the state of cooperation.

In the "Endless Corridor", players can theoretically develop in all directions, which is as difficult as saying in reality that anyone has a chance to become an all-rounder.

As the quest progresses, in order to survive in a more difficult world, players will solve quests in a habitual way, resulting in those who are good at getting better and better, and those who are not good at it are left aside.

Players don't have a class, and the means to survive are all.

The attributes in the early stage are very important, after level 25, when it comes to difficult scripts, skills and equipment become more critical, and the growth of equipment and skill systems can make every player not get lost in complex combat orientations, while ensuring the personalization of personal style, it also gives a "focus" for development.

Almost only in five minutes,

The clanging shouts stopped.

Dozens of damaged mechanical lifeforms slanted skewed along the plant's platform path.

The battlefield was silent, save for the sound of Wren's breathing with red eyes.

"Your physical strength is poor enough." Miles' face was wet with sweat, and he threw the arm of a mechanical lifeform to the ground. Teasing followed.

Several people looked up.

Wooβ€”β€”!

Floating mechanical lifeforms emitted anomalous sound waves, and more mechanical lifeforms crawled out of the cracks in the pipes and walls.

With swords, heavy axes, and bombs, they pressed up layer after layer.

After the demise of humanity, a war broke out between artificial humans and mechanical life forms that lasted for thousands of years.

It is said that it is a war, but in fact, the victory or defeat has long been concluded.

Since the arrival of aliens on Earth, mechanical life has been produced on a large scale around the world, and this behavior has not stopped for thousands of years after the aliens have been destroyed.

During this period, androids were also in large-scale production, but due to the fine workmanship and the fact that the energy area was occupied by mechanical lifeforms, the production speed was limited, resulting in the androids being unable to resist the huge number of mechanical lifeforms.

Delicate gears can't resist popular machinery.

The android loses at the beginning.

Players like Wren have known all the stories of this world for a long time.

However, it is only now that they understand what kind of enemies these androids face in thousands of years of reincarnation.

"Damn ......"

Su Mei hurriedly bit off the cigarette between her teeth.

She flicked the hook on her wrist and grabbed at the superstructure.

"Catch me! Just kill that floating mechanical lifeform! ”

……

In the black-pressed passage, Chabai ran at the front, and this straight corridor had an up and down fork.

"Down!"

Li Nuo jumped over and ran towards the spiral staircase leading to the lower level.

The Resistance squad leader shouted from behind, "Wait...... The connection below should be the undersea area, where it is more dangerous! ”

Li Nuo ran briskly, adjusted his breathing and said: "The total area of the factory is about 20,000 square meters, except for the tall tower in the middle, the rest of the area is the same as the garbage dump, the main building of the factory, that is, this tower-like structure, the upper floor has been blown up, and there is no other road except down." ”

"Excuse me......" Dora quickly followed Li Nuo's side, and asked when she was shoulder-to-shoulder, "How do you know the area of this factory...... What is the general structure? ”

It's always been occupied by mechanical lifeforms, and even the androids in the vicinity don't know what is going on.

"When we were bounced just now, couldn't we see this place in mid-air?"

Lenovo's explanation is as simple as it gets.

The simpler it was, the more puzzling it was for the Resistance, who would have the heart to observe the structure of the factory in that case?

"No, no!" The squad leader shouted, "You shouldn't split up now, the situation of those three is very dangerous!" ”

Li Nuo: "What do you think! If I can fight, won't I fight, there are many people on the other side, and the main general is powerful, act in batches to find loopholes and then attack! ”

"What kind of philosophy are you?"

Li Nuo said nonsense: "Sun Tzu's Art of War: The First Strategy"! The husband is the victor without a fight and the temple is counted as a lot, and the temple is not a winner without a fight, it is counted as less, and more is counted as a win, and it is not a matter of nothing! ”

The Resistance was stunned by this.

Cha Bai was used to it, and when she saw the [Type 40 Tactical Knife] on Li Nuo's back, her pupils trembled slightly: "This knife ......"

Li Nuo: "I almost forgot...... I was given to it by a dead parasitic man. ”

Li Nuo handed the knife to Cha Bai, who hesitated a little.

The [Type 40 Tactical Knife] is a special weapon for the Jiye troops, and she is a little resistant.

Li Nuo nodded, what he meant was that with the existence of the weapons of the Jiye Army, Cha Bai could upload his memories to the weapon, and in order to modify Cha Bai's body and clean up the virus, this step was essential.

Cha Bai still withdrew his hand: "Let's talk about it after this operation is over......"

Leno noticed that she used the term "action."

Subtly, does it still have an impact......

At the end of the spiral staircase is a crumpled tin tin door.

The praying mantis cannon pops out behind the tea white, and one shot enters the soul!

The gate was blasted open by a high-explosive bomb!

Several mechanical lifeforms on floating disks jumped out of it.

Li Nuo jumped up, stepped on one of them before the enemy could shoot, took out the [Eight Star Gun] aimed at the target, and pulled the trigger with a slap in the face!

High-explosive shells destroy the target instantly.

The effect of upgrading ranged weapons is to increase the number of bullets or reduce recoil, and [Eight Star Gun], as the exclusive weapon of Adam's hammer, is powerful enough to face the weapons of the world of "Nier".

Fragmented iron sheets were scattered in the air.

The slain mechanical lifeform explodes.

Behind them, seven or eight round mechanical lifeforms pounced like black shadows!

The leader of the Resistance squad shoots cover in the back.

Cha Bai snapped his fingers, the sparks on his fingertips fell to the ground, the heels rubbed against the sparks on the ground, flames erupted from the soles of his feet, and the form of his boots [Yinga] activated, accelerating the fold line dive, and his body gracefully dodged the purple energy balls shot out of the mechanical cannon.

A flaming kick destroys a mechanical creature with a ranged weapon.

The floating arm of the control detached from the hammer and flew through the air like a motorized aircraft, smashing into approaching enemies.

Inside the dark factory, the lights flickered.

The sound of shattering and noisy splinters echoed through the mottled interior of the factory, bullet casings falling to the ground, energy balls crashing into corners, mechanical creatures derailing from their tracks, mutilated iron corpses, bullets, blades, blunt objects, flashing away, and finally only life suddenly disappeared.

The four of them managed to clear the large group of mechanical lifeforms behind the door.

Li Nuo had the time to look around, and there were mechanical lifeforms that looked completely different from the original game.

He didn't know if it was a sign of a demon change or something......

"Someone's here!"

Dora's voice tightened their strings again.

Cha Bai stood in front of an artificial corpse of the Leaf Sending Force, not knowing what to say.

The black-haired Parachus Organgist sits in a corner, holding a broken gun in her hand and a hole in her head that tells others that she committed suicide.

Li Nuo remembered the details of the mission he had seen earlier:

[Sending leaves to the G squad to collect combat data, the squad is five people]

[5B, Offensive, Deceased (Killed during Descending Battle)]

[16D, Defensive, Dead (Brain Penetration)]

[3G, Shooting Type, Deceased]

[5H, therapeutic, infected with logic virus, dead (suicide)]

[6S, Scanning, Infected with Logic Virus, Dead (Terminated by 3G)]

"Suicide, she's 5H."

Li Nuo found a disk from 5H's hand, and the team leader thoughtfully took out the projector.

There was a voice from inside about the landing operation:

……

"This is the landing record of Team G of the Jiye Army, and the sound wave is being adjusted."

"It is currently 50,000 meters above sea level. We have already broken through the maximum temperature point. Now start cooling the armor. ”

"So, this is the sea."

"Hey, what do you think the Earth should look like?"

"It should be the same as the simulation."

"Guys, we're in the middle of a descent attack. Don't say things that don't matter. ”

"Alright, alright...... No. 3, don't embarrass her. ”

"This is Command. Yurha squadron please reply. ”

"This is number 3. The program is well underway. We will arrive at our destination within 40 minutes. No enemies were found...... It's going to be easy. ”

"Don't let your guard down, you're approaching the enemy's air territory."

"You've always been so worried, Miss Commander."

"Number 5 is under attack!"

"What's going on?!"

"Number 6 is under attack!"

"No!"

"They're going to attack when we land."

"The 16th, the 5th are attacked!"

"Number 3, calm down!"

"Number 5? Number 5 answer me! ”

"Command! Where's the support?! ”

"We'll reach an ignition point in five seconds."

"Please hurry!"

"Incoming heat source detected!"

"46 short-range missiles!"

"Avoid!"

"We can't do it!"

"Activate the anti-magnetic field sheath!"

"Missiles have-"

……

A violent explosion drowned out the last sentence.

Cha Bai remembered the first and only time he descended into battle.

After entering the atmosphere from the fortress of space, the scene of countless missiles of mechanical lifeforms crashing into sight like a shower is awakened by this recording.

Li Nuo picked up the tactical knife and the damaged laser pistol on 5H's body and continued on his way.

In the dimly lit corridor, the corpses of mechanical lifeforms displayed on both sides were scattered like garbage.

Li Nuo's eyes are sharp.

I saw a bloodstained hand in the old, scattered parts.

He pulled his hand out, and it was the corpse of a player, with its jaw shaved off and bloody.

[Note: In this script, due to special protection, the player's corpse will be defaulted to the "ignore" state by the android.]

"In disguise, let the players not mess with the script, right?"

Li Nuo snorted, squatted in the backpack that took off the corpse, and put his equipment in it, which was not a kind of "picking up the corpse".

He had a flash of inspiration, thought of Xu Muye's [Book of Inferior Brigades], and chose to bind the equipment.

[Hint: There is a hidden threshold for players to bind props and equipment, and they will get negative feedback if they exceed the tolerance range, and the feedback needs to be forcibly unbound from another prop or equipment to be offset, please explore it by yourself]

Li Nuo took out the book with a calm face, and the worn-out book automatically floated in the air.

【Identify the player's available skills】

[You can't strip skills yet, this player doesn't have any linkage with you]

"Heh, it's better to call it the Book of Erwuzai." Li Nuo received the book into his coat: "It's okay, sooner or later, a player who can slaughter will come to the door." ”

"Hurry up!" The leader of the Resistance squad in the distance shouted, and she spotted a thermal image of her companion.

In one room, three more surviving resistance soldiers were found, all of whom were scattered.

Li Nuo didn't have time to listen to this, anyway, he could guess the process and lead the way in front of the rapid run.

At the end of the corridor, a large door.

Li Nuo went up and kicked the door open, scaring the other party before he could scare himself behind the door.

He had just stepped out of the doorline when he suddenly braked sharply in front of him, and spread his arms to block the resistance and Cha Bai who were following him.

In front of me is a suspended plank road against the wall, and the hollow under the center has the sound of sea water fluctuations.

Hundreds of mechanical lifeforms stood opposite, as if they had fallen into an evil spirit, jumping from the edge of the plank path to the bottom one by one.

Leno remembered that there was a similar scene in the "Nier" game, but it seemed to be a plot related to religion......

Puzzled and suspicious, he walked out slowly, looked at the big hole underneath, his pupils were stunned, and his scalp was numb.

A massive orb of countless mechanical lifeforms, hovering and rolling like a crawler beneath the hollow.

Li Nuo took out the telescope he had just picked up from his bag, and in the center of the giant sphere, a strange thing was imprinted on the retina through the lens.

It was a cluster of gears, cables, pulleys, screws, and a fiery red spot in the center.

Li Nuo put down the binoculars.

He glanced at the mechanical lifeform that was still jumping in the distance.

He took the telescope and looked down.

After watching it back and forth several times.

Cha Bai asked worriedly, "What's wrong?" ”

Li Nuo: "A large sphere in the center?" A bunch of mechanical lifeforms swirled around it. ”

Squad Leader: "What...... Spheres?"

Dora: "It can't be a black hole, right?" I've read about it in human literature......"

Li Nuo picked up a screw scattered on the ground and threw it down, only to see that the screw was stuck in the iron sheet that was gathered together by the machinery.

"Mechanical matter will stick."

He pulled out the alchemy materials, the witch's eyeballs, from his bag and threw them down.

The eyeball hits the mechanical orb below and falls further into the seawater below.

"Flesh and blood may not be glued."

Li Nuo touched the mask on his face, and his scalp was really numb.

"It's familiar."

"The fire of Prometheus? If this is the thing...... As long as you don't touch it, it's not dangerous. ”

"Tell me?" Cha Bai asked.

He used his telescope to take one last look around, and on the side of the sphere, there was a door.

"Walk, go down and take a look, and be careful not to touch anything associated with it, including the mechanical lifeforms attached to it."

"Are you sure......" The team leader was still thinking about his companion, this thing in front of him was too weird.

Leno snorted.

In order to be rewarded with this mission, he must keep the Resistance with him and keep him safe.

"The god of mechanical lifeforms, 33P, comes from the story of the Neil generation, which is thousands of years ago in 11942, where you live."

When Li Nuo tells the above paragraph, the resistance forces around him will automatically be blocked by the system about the "Endless Corridor".

"To put it simply, a robot that has been confined in a secret room awakens to consciousness one day after being killed, generates emotions, and shapes itself into a huge ball through the fusion of various mechanical things, and sends it to the sky, and when it sees the war between artificial humans and mechanical lifeforms, it is puzzled."

"Why kill."

Li Nuo learned the original text and recited the story as much as he could:

"What has become of the world? Where have the humans gone? In the process of consolidating his thoughts, 33P detected a violent tremor. A missile hit its body directly. The second and third missiles also hit one after another. ”

"33P, a robot that has become a huge ball and fuses with various machines, thinks."

"Why are these machines fighting?"

"The conclusion is simple, because they received such an order."

"Machines and androids are designed to do only what they are told, and destruction is work."

"We tremble, we fear death, where will we go when we die? What is the point of being destroyed, being destroyed? Once damaged beyond repair, what exactly awaits us ahead? ”

Carefully follow the stairs to the bottom.

A small door was seen under a vertical ladder.

"Why are these machines waging horrific wars? There is no other reason, because they don't fear, fear is the consciousness brought by the ego, they are not surviving, so there is a way to fight. Then give them the meaning of life. ”

"Hmm......" Li Nuo scratched his mask: "That's probably the original text." ”

"And then?" The team leader asked.

"Later? Later, P33 wrote consciousness and emotions into the programming of mechanical lifeforms, and since then P33 has become the god of mechanical lifeforms. ”

Leno pointed to the group of small mechanical lifeforms that were constantly jumping down above.

"Na~ just like them, they later developed a form similar to religious concepts, and began to be martyred regardless of themselves, of course, this is my guess."

The squad leader shrugged his shoulders: "Nice story, so you still don't know what this big ball is?" ”

Li Nuo guessed that the androids would not believe it, and like the mechanical lifeforms of the time, most of these androids had not been able to rewrite their own command programs, and only a few "deserters" who had lost their internet connection lived their own lives.

Next, he asked the Resistance to stay here and answer outside.

Li Nuo and Cha Bai decided to climb down the ladder with a drop of six meters.

Cha Bai thought of a scene in the "Nier" game and asked Li Nuo to go down last.

In order to prevent danger from appearing behind the door, Li Nuo carefully pushed the door open.

Inside was an empty room.

It's dark.

Under the light of the oil lamp, he made sure that there were no traps or anything like that in the vicinity, and then he went in carefully.

There is a computer.

There is also a human skeleton.

From the clothes and equipment, it can be seen that the corpse is a player.

Similar to the H5 seen earlier, the gun in the corpse's hand and the bullet holes in the head indicate that he also committed suicide.

The skeleton should be a man, the skeleton is intact, no mechanical lifeforms or androids have ever discovered him, or it may not have been discovered under the influence of the "Endless Corridor".

Cha Bai wrinkled his brows: "It's been a long time since you've been dead, right?" ”

Li Nuo picked up the oil lamp, irradiated the white bones, and observed carefully: "Under normal circumstances, the white ossification of adult corpses exposed to the air takes more than 10 to 1 month in summer, more than 5-6 weeks in spring and autumn, and more than several months in winter...... Hundreds of thousands of years. ”

Cha Bai found a key from the table.

【Computer boot key】

【Plot Items】

[Brief description: The last words left by a certain player, it may not be good to read it, and it is definitely not good to not read it]

Seeing the remarks, Li Nuo faintly felt that the situation was a little strange.

It seems that the message left by the deceased is of considerable significance.

But "seeing it is not necessarily good".

What does that mean?

"Plot change? Spoiler? Hidden clues opened? ”

Many possibilities flashed through Li Nuo's mind.

Thinking about it rationally, the current situation is already very bad, and it makes no difference whether there is more or less.

It's irrational to think about it, what if the treasure chest drops one day.

Li Nuo took the key and stabbed it into the keyhole under the computer host, this kind of key is required to start the computer for the first time he has seen it, and it is quite fresh.

[Side quest triggered: Player 7300's message]

[Task Reward: Leave a Message After Listening]

The description of the subplot tells Leno that there is no regret medicine in this world.

But this stuff is important.

The computer screen lit up, and the voice that only appeared in the player's ears came out of the speaker:

"If you, or if you can hear me, I should be dead, ah...... I'm so unwilling, hahaha, let's get down to business. ”

"My name is Mani Fortes, and I'm player number 7300."

"This is my fifth time at level 25, and I'm just a little bit away from reaching level 40, but our entire team is dead in the world of 'Neil'."

"At the end of the day, we're underestimating the enemy, this damn script is full of mechanical lifeforms, I clearly remember the details of each teammate's death, lingering, just circling in my head, the world of "Nier" is cursed, it's a fuck at all, there can't be a world with a good future, don't believe in the happy ending in the game, there is nothing here but the pain of reincarnation."

"Another friend and I fled back to the Land of Daylight, and after being chased here by mechanical lifeforms, I was left alone."

"I'm seriously injured, I don't have much gold left, and I can't live if I am forced to quit the script, so I might as well die here, I plan to make a grave for myself, and it is an interesting choice to make a mechanical factory a grave, and this is near the sea, it is a seaview factory, hahaha, in my time, the accommodation fee in the seaside place is very expensive, far away...... Sorry, but then again......"

"Later, I had a whim, maybe I can do something big before I die, make myself a part of the 'Endless Corridor', and change history, this is a good choice, so I connected to the network of mechanical lifeforms, these little guys have a very strong learning ability, as long as it is conducive to the development of mechanical lifeforms, the network will record the information you upload, and promote the evolution of mechanical lifeforms in the years to come."

"I'm uploading blueprints of mechanical monsters and floating snipers."

"So I even got a key to the mother network, I tried, do you know what happened, I pulled up the [Prometheus Fire] archive! I got a chance to summon the [Projection of Prometheus Fire], this thing is still a short-range summoning key, I put it at the door, damn it! If I knew we wouldn't have to die! But I don't have time......"

"I made an electronic brain connection for myself before, connecting to the parent network, which caused the data stream to be infected with a logic virus, ha...... I'm going to have to die now. ”

"Today is the year 10006 of the "Nier Machine Age", and it will take another thousand years for the Leaf Troop to appear, and I can't see the legendary 2B and A2 before I die, so I'm unwilling to ......"

"Beep-"

There was a pause.

Then at the entrance behind him, there was the sound of wooden planks falling to the ground.

"Okay, speaking of which, the summoning scroll that can be activated when you open the door should have reached the trigger time."

"They're my hole cards."

Da –

Da –

The light source stretched the shadow behind him.

Li Nuo lowered his head and swept back to a dark shadow, he didn't dare to look up, and stretched out his hand to cover Chabai's eyes.

Cha Bai understood that something was wrong, and stood motionless, but the heat of the fire element had already been rubbed out of his palm.

[Side quest triggered: Player 7300's message]

[Reward: Player's 7300 Storage]

[Mission Details: Escape from the observation range of player 7300 within fifteen minutes, and there is a summon in this area "Painting: Sick Girl Collection"]

"My name is Mani Fortes, and I'm player number 7300."

"The mildness in front is a lie."

"Die with me."

"Beep-"

(End of chapter)
