According to Reynaud, Lucius and the others were given the astonishing fact that the far west of the Western Continent, the plain at the other end of the Misty Forest, was ruled by a mechanical fortress.

Reynolds didn't know when the rule of the machines began, he only knew that the entire plain was ruled by those machines, and under the seemingly calm and peaceful appearance, there were hidden those emotionless and brutal rules, which were more terrifying than the overlords of the city in the woods.

All living beings on the plains are ruled by those machines, which strictly enforce a special and cruel way of rule, and will run some of the plains in mechanization.

Just like the many races on the plains, the machine will limit the number of creatures in each race, neither too many creatures in one race, nor too few in a certain race, and always maintain a steady level.

As for the surplus creatures of each race, once discovered, they will be snatched away by those mechanical beasts and brought back to the mechanical castle in the center of the plains.

If the number of creatures in a certain race increases, the automatons will massacre indiscriminately, regardless of gender, young and old, until the number reaches a certain amount.

This almost cruel system, while maintaining the equality of resources on the plains, also puts the lives of all ethnic groups on the plains in danger, and they live in fear almost every day.

But this is not the most terrible, the real threat to the survival of all races, the most terrible system is that the mechanical castle is uniformly rationed, that is to say, each tribe, each town, each village, is completely according to the head of the distribution of various supply shares, even the most important food.

Mechanized distribution is very rigid, just like controlling the number of individual beings in a group. There is no distinction between men and women, young and old, but various distributions are made according to the prescribed number of individuals.

The most direct problem with this kind of distribution is that many ethnic groups and villages and towns are in short supply of food, and many living beings will be starved to death, and the mechanical castle does not restrict the fighting between ethnic groups, resulting in the situation of mutual robbery of supplies.

"Hey......" Renault sighed at this point, "Those mechanical beasts you see will not attack the creatures recognized by the mechanical castle, even if those creatures come to us to rob the supplies, so the matter of snatching the materials is an extremely common thing on the plains." ”

Puzzled, she asked, "Why don't you hunt or grow your own food?" And we've seen a lot of wild beasts along the way, so self-sufficiency shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Without waiting for Renault to answer, Norco analyzed in a low voice: "Didn't Renault say that the entire plain is under the monitoring of the mechanical castle?

Renault nodded and said, "Yes, the mechanical castle will monitor the entire plain, once someone is found hunting privately, they will send out powerful mechanical beasts at a very fast speed, not only the hunter will be killed, but even the city, town and even the clan where he is located will be sitting." Hunting one will seat ten people in a row. ”

"What? How can this be, then this is too harsh, right?" Reynolds' words made everyone exclaim, it was difficult to understand why Plains' policy was so harsh.

Augustine, on the other hand, calmly jumped from Lucius's shoulder and onto the table in front of Lucius. He cleared his throat and said, "This is actually quite normal, ordinary machines have no heart, they will only mechanically execute orders." ”

As soon as Augustine spoke, all the people in the room looked at him, Beluti, and Three and Four. Ogufodin hurriedly explained: "Don't look at us, the three of us are not ordinary machines, we have wisdom and hearts. Besides, I'm a mechanical deity, with the same complexities as you. ”

Lucius then explained: "They are different from ordinary machines, three and four are evolving into mechanical spirits, and Beludi is already a high-level mechanical spirit, Augustine, in his own words, is already a higher mechanical god, and they all have the same affection and independent thinking wisdom as we do." ”

"No, it is said that those machines in the mechanical castle are also mechanical demons, they also have the ability to think independently and have wisdom, but they lack emotional fluctuations, and they think in a mechanical way, and some people once said that those machines treat all the creatures on the plain as machines. ”

Hearing this, Augustine and Belletti glanced at each other, and then Augustine said with a puzzled face: "It's a little strange to say this, it stands to reason that the mechanical demon spirit cognition should be specially instilled by someone, and it shouldn't appear, they will treat everything as a machine." ”

Beludi, who has never liked to talk much, also said: "There is only one possibility, and that is that the makers of those mechanical demons are also a machine. ”

"What, little girl, do you mean, there's a mechanical god in that mechanical castle too?" Shocked, Augustine jumped up and down to Belletti.

Belletti held her chin in her hand and thought about it: "According to Renault's description just now, there is indeed such a possibility, and only mechanical gods have the ability to create mechanical demon spirits by themselves, this you as a mechanical god, you should know better than me, don't you have some kind of induction?"

"Induction? What induction? Little girl, do you think that mechanical gods are the same as those so-called gods? Can they sense a single thought with a single thought? If that is the case, then what are those things that were shot down in this town just now? What else does the mechanical castle need to monitor here?"

Speaking of this, Augustine suddenly remembered something, turned his head to look at Renault, who had lit another cigarette, and said, "I said, boy, what happened to the blue light emitted by that stone statue just now?"

Renault obviously didn't expect that the little robot who didn't look good would dare to call himself "kid", and originally wanted to refute a few words, but after thinking about it, the other party was a mechanical god.

So he could only accept the title of Augustine, "Let's take two puffs of cigarettes", puff out the smoke ring, and said: "It was left by the previous mechanical god, and that stone statue has a special mechanical device that can release that special blue light, which can destroy the power system of the machine." ”

Lucius interjected, "You rely on that stone statue to get rid of being watched by the mechanical castle? So those two mechanical beasts are not guarding you, but watching you?"

Renault didn't respond to Lucius, and Lucius didn't care, standing up and pacing, and said, "So it looks like you recognized that Belletti is similar to the stone statue when you were in front of the town, and you deliberately attacked us in order to use our hands to get rid of the two automatons, right?"

This time, Renault's expression changed suddenly, and he took a big gulp of the cigarette in his hand, not even noticing, and the cigarette spark quickly extended to his fingers.

It wasn't until the cigarette sparked his fingers that Renault exclaimed "ah", threw the cigarette away quickly, rubbing his hands a little restrainedly, and never dared to raise his head to meet Lucius's gaze.

However, under Lucius's unrelenting gaze, Renault finally relented, and said helplessly: "Okay, you're right, I did deliberately want to borrow your hands to get rid of those two mechanical beasts, but you also know the situation in the plains, and I also have a hard time." ”

Lucius smiled when he heard this, and said, "Yes, there are difficulties, everyone has difficulties, but if it weren't for that little girl who recognized Belletti, you're afraid you wouldn't have let us into the town, right?"

This time Renaud was completely shocked, and looked up at Lucius in disbelief, he really didn't understand that just a few words of his own would make the other party guess so many of his thoughts.

Seeing Renault's shocked eyes, Lucius smiled and said, "It seems like this, I guessed right, are you planning to borrow our hands to get rid of the mechanical beasts, and then block us out of the town, so that we can deal with the mechanical castle punishment?"

At this time, Renault knew that there was no way to continue to hide it, so he could only sigh: "Okay, what you said is all right." ”

As soon as Renault's words fell, Du Liniang said disdainfully: "You are really a fool, do you think that if you borrow our hands to get rid of those two mechanical beasts, with us, the mechanical castle will not punish you? ”

"Of course, I know that without that statue, our town would be reduced to a bunch of toys under surveillance, just like the rest of the world, but relying on that statue alone, we still can't fight against the mechanical castle, so we need to rely on the strength of others. ”

As soon as Renault's words fell, the soft sword on Du Liniang's waist flew out, hitting Renault's face directly, and a blood mark was drawn on Renault's face, Du Liniang said viciously: "Since you want to use our strength, then put away your little cleverness, don't play tricks on the old lady." ”

Lucius let Du Liniang's soft sword cut through Renault, and said to Renault indifferently: "Actually, you are wrong, since we have come to this plain, even if you don't do that, we will go to the mechanical castle, and we will also go to figure out the qiē on the plain, because I am a disciple of the owner of that stone statue." ”

"What? you, you, are you the legendary inheritor?" Renault looked at Lucius in surprise, not caring about the wound on his face.

Lucius and the others looked at each other when they heard this, and finally Augustine said proudly: "As the heir of Hope, this is your responsibility, you can't escape, you must face it, you must know that the situation on the plain is likely to be a hidden danger left by Hope, so you are even more responsible." ”

Hearing this, Lucius couldn't help but smile and said, "Hehe, it seems that I, the inheritor, am really busy, and I don't know what the teacher will leave me this time?" (to be continued......)
