52. Invasion

Murong Tian directly threw out the doubts in his heart:

"Sect Master Fang Cai Ye said that there are many similar games in Wang Ji's palace. This 'strange snake' is not a sapient creature, but a man-made machine, but it is lifelike, almost fake. The craftsmanship and materials are extraordinary......"

He crouched down and carefully studied the motionless "strange snake".

The head is a pair of cold vertical pupils, like two bright stars, which have been extinguished at this moment.

The body is composed of an unknown metal alloy, glowing with a cold light, like a silver lightning bolt.

The whole body is covered in fine metal scales, each one like a well-polished knife, with sharp edges that can withstand any form of attack, somewhat similar to the metal armor left after the disappearance of the giant snake in the Coiling Dragon Falls.

Seeing that he was puzzled, Ye Wanru explained:

"The machine play made by Wang Ji is ingenious in the sky, and it is the same as the Eight Treasures Exquisite Pagoda that I am tied to my body, even if I have mastered the skillful use of the technique, it is difficult to understand the subtlety. Therefore, I also know a little bit about it, and the reason why I can transform 'Xiao Qi' is thanks to the 'Heavenly Heart' that Wang Ji gave me in the past. ”

She pointed to the snake's head.

Only then did Murong Tian notice that there was a small black dot on the snake's head, embedded in the crown of flesh.

Is this "Tianxin" changing the previous "artificial intellectual disability" that could not recognize obstacles and could only follow a fixed trajectory to an "artificial intelligence" that can now automatically identify targets, avoid obstacles, and can use flute voice control?

Artificial intelligence in the modern world mostly uses sensors to detect the external environment, convert external signals into telecommunication signals, and control machinery.

And this small black dot, I can't tell what material it is, I don't know how it works, and the source of power is unknown.

The answer to all these riddles seems to be solved only by that Xuanyuan clan's Wang Ji.

Wang Ji, who is it?

Will she be the source of the scientific and technological achievements that make the world of immortal cultivation seriously inconsistent with the level of development of productive forces, causing the world to produce bugs?

……

"Buzz" "Buzz"

Just as he was carefully stroking the strange snake on the ground with his hand, the strange snake, which was still lifeless, suddenly shook twice.

He was startled and fell straight to the ground.

Ye Wanru just wanted to say something to comfort her, Xiao Qi had been closed by her, however, the next scene made her stunned.

The strange snake continued to vibrate, the frequency of the vibration became higher and higher, and the snake's body slowly stood up, and its vertical pupils emitted a faint blue light.

"Buzz" "Buzz"

The small black dots on the snake's head emitted an eerie red light.

In the darkness of the dense forest, there is a rustling sound, as if to give a response.

Murong Tian's heart was beating faster, and his heart was full of tension and fear.

Some unknown danger seems to have been caused.

"Woooo"

Xuanyuan Lianxi's attendants drew their swords one after another, formed a circle, and protected the eldest prince in it.

"Buzz" "Buzz"

The forest was dark, and the moon had taken refuge in the clouds.

A few attendants, on the orders of the great prince, investigated, and scattered.

The trees towered into the sky, and the ground was covered with dead branches and leaves.

The place illuminated by the torches in their hands was empty, except for the sticky and eerie red glow of the leaves.

The sound of vibrations grew louder and louder, and an atmosphere of unease permeated the crowd.

……

In the pile of dead leaves deep in the woods, a huge tentacle crept out, its color was as blue and black as the deep sea, and the surface was slippery.

The tentacles are covered with thick suckers, stained with mud and rotten leaves, making for the best camouflage in the dark night.

Like a keen cheetah, it stealthily and silently pounced on an attendant with his back to the edge of the forest.

The attendant reacted extremely quickly and turned around to try to escape, but was still a step too slow.

He was wrapped in tentacles, and his body was tightly bound in the tentacles.

He was about to scream, only to find that his mouth and nose were covered in unknown mucus.

His struggles grew weaker and weaker, until finally, he was completely swept away by the tentacles and disappeared into the darkness.

"Boom"

The leaves shook a little, and his place was empty.

The sound of "swish" echoed in the night sky, like a preview of a battle that had not yet begun.

"Aqing is gone!"

Finally, an attendant noticed something abnormal, and his voice was frightened.

"Shoot the arrows!"

The seniors of the Flowing Immortal Sect roared, and everyone woke up like a dream.

The rain of swords slid down into the depths of the forest, but the shadows of the trees shook, and the forest returned to silence again, leaving no trace.

The tentacles seemed to come out of nowhere, creatures from another world.

The whole process is too fast to react to, and the action is mysterious and silent.

"Buzz" "Buzz"

The strange snake was still shaking, Murong Tian swung his sword towards the snake body, and the strange snake flew up in the air and rolled into the depths of the dense forest.

He shouted, "Hurry up! I don't know what else this thing is going to attract! ”

Xuanyuan Lianxi was surrounded by several attendants and ran in the direction of the stone path.

Ye Wanru stood at the edge of the dense forest, pressed a switch on the flute, and with a "rub", the slender blade slashed out from the mouth of the flute, flashing with sharp light.

"Bang"

Murong Tian lit a bamboo guide on the side, and the dense forest was as bright as day in an instant.

Both of them were shocked!

Thousands of strange snakes crawled all over the trees and grass, their scales all black, hidden in the night, and the light of the fireworks showed their tracks.

These snakes come in a variety of postures, some with elongated bodies that snake between branches; Some are short and stubby in shape, lurking in the grass.

They also vary in size, from finger-thick to bucket-like.

The only thing they had in common was that, like the captured serpent, unlike any known life form, their actions were imbued with a unique mechanical rhythm.

There is a small snake with a slender body of about a few inches entrenched on the top of a tall ancient tree, and its front body is raised in an S-shaped posture.

The head was raised slightly, and the strange red light flashed back and forth.

"It's Xiao Qi!" Ye Wanru exclaimed.

She was about to play the flute, but found that the flute could not make any sound at this time.

Murong Tian raised the bow and crossbow in his hand and aimed it in the direction of the little snake:

"It's like a signal transmitter, as if it's attracting these lurking snakes."

"Tianxin ......" Ye Wanru muttered: "Isn't there a problem with Tianxin?"

Murong Tian groaned, although he didn't know what the "Heavenly Heart" was, if it was a controller with a set program, there was a possibility of being invaded.

Like the hacking technology in the world he once lived in, this intruder may not be nearby, maybe thousands of miles away, manipulating these strange mechanical monsters.

The tech tree of this world is too crooked to be imagined......

His system has not made any sound for so long, could it be that it has also been hacked?

A chill ran down his spine.
