85: Savior
Chapter 85: Savior
Ye Zi and Dilisi retreated to the doorway.
Ye Zi took out black soil and seeds, chanting incantations under her breath.
Then, she buried the seeds in the soil.
Roots sprouted, and various shapes of leaves grew, enveloping the two in a shroud of green, isolating them from external observation.
Dilisi aimed her sniper rifle.
A shot from her 98K hit the robot's head, but unfortunately, ordinary bullets couldn't penetrate it, leaving only a white mark.
“Ye Zi, a small enchantment!” Dilisi called out.
Ye Zi took the copper bullet Dilisi handed her, held it in her palm, and a second later, a thin silver film coated its surface.
She loaded the bullet, pulled the bolt, and aimed.
“Bang!”
The gun fired!
This time, the bullet pierced the simulated robot's chest, leaving a small, clear hole straight through it.
Inside the hole, sparks flew from the operating parts, but the robot did not fall; it remained in combat.
Dilisi and Ye Zi frowned simultaneously, continuing to enchant bullets and fire.
The entire room was in chaos, bullets flying wildly, leaving whistling trails in the air.
Several people were targeted by the robots and couldn't dodge at all.
Autumn Cicada, bold and meticulous, light as a swallow, dodged the incoming bullets and circled behind the nearest robot.
She embraced its head with both hands and performed a back throw, resulting in a loud ‘boom’.
Then, with a delicate shout, she used all her strength to forcibly pull off the robot's head.
At the broken section, wires sparked and sizzled.
“Watch out!”
Lu Xiaoxiao, sharp-eyed, leaped from a metal platform towards Autumn Cicada, embracing her and rolling into a corner.
A green laser beam swept past, splitting the alloy metal platform in two.
Fine white smoke wafted from it.
“Hiss…” Autumn Cicada gasped.
What a terrifying laser beam!
Zhou Bo, clutching Liu Xiao's collar, his eyes bloodshot, roared, “Can you get into the system now and shut down the robot's program!?
He had been shot through the arm while protecting Liu Xiao, and blood was gushing out.
Now his arm felt slightly numb and he couldn't exert any strength.
“I, I don't know either,” Liu Xiao stammered, his legs weak with fear, his voice tearful.
“This programming is too complex…”
“Shh!”
A green laser grazed their scalps, instantly incinerating the hair in the middle, giving them a receding hairline.
Terrified, both men simultaneously recoiled their necks, pressing tightly against the bottom of the alloy platform, not daring to breathe.
“Damn it!” Zhou Bo cursed, peeking out half his head, feeling a chill at the top of his scalp.
Among those who came in with him, besides Guan Lu and Liu Xiao, everyone else was dead.
Their bodies were cut into several pieces by the green laser, intestines spilled everywhere, a sickening sight.
“Guan Lu, you go smash the door, I'll cover you!”
“Okay!”
Guan Lu transformed into a Hulk, possessing immense strength.
He endured bullets embedding in his skin and ran to the glass door.
Zhou Bo scrambled and rolled to stand behind Guan Lu, crossing his arms.
He roared, “Shield!”
With Zhou Bo's hands as the center, ripples visibly undulated in the air, and a giant circular shield appeared.
A rather flamboyant yellow five-pointed star was drawn in the middle.
Bullets struck it with a clanging sound, and for a moment, it actually blocked the dense volley of bullets.
“Hurry up!” Zhou Bo shouted in pain.
These bullets were not like ordinary bullets on Blue Star; hitting them rapidly depleted his internal energy.
“Clang!”
“Clang!”
Guan Lu slammed against the glass door, making loud noises, but the glass door, of unknown material, remained perfectly still, without even a crack.
At the same time, Xu Jingzhe had arrived at the base of the tallest building.
He looked up, and his heart involuntarily trembled, as if he had thought of something.
Viewed from a distance, this city gradually decreased in height from the tallest building.
The outermost buildings were only one story high and the most numerous.
Buildings slightly further in were two or three stories, with the height increasing and the number decreasing.
Wasn't this clearly a pyramid shape?!
Furthermore, he had entered rooms of different heights several times, and the higher the building, the larger and more luxurious the rooms.
The level of technology inside was also higher.
This was a city with a very clear hierarchy; the people at the top of the pyramid should be the city's administrators.
He was very curious, what kind of technology would be found in this tallest building?
Technology that surpassed Blue Star's current 0.93 civilization level!
He entered the first floor, which was empty, except for a beautifully designed reception desk; there was nothing else.
Fifty meters on either side of the reception desk, there were five elevators each.
To the right of the elevators, there was also a spiral staircase leading upstairs.
Xu Jingzhe thought for a moment and chose to take the stairs.
He didn't know which floor Ye Zi and the others were on, and taking the stairs was the most suitable option.
The stairs led to the second floor, where there was a very large space.
Directly facing east was a glass door, with a metal plaque hanging on it that read “Gym.”
Through the glass door, the scene inside the second floor was clearly visible.
The door was open, and Xu Jingzhe entered, taking a quick look.
Gyms were also divided into many types; he saw several such as a weight room, zero-gravity room, firearms training, motorcycle training, brain and mental training, etc., completely different from the ordinary gyms he knew.
After a brief look, Xu Jingzhe lifted his leg and went up to the third floor.
His pupils contracted violently; the scene before him made his scalp tingle!
An unknown number of robots were firing bullets wildly, green laser beams occasionally sweeping across.
Several agile figures moved through the chaos; who else could it be but Lu Xiaoxiao and the others!
There was also a sturdy, three to four-meter-tall Hulk, wielding fists larger than washbasins, smashing furiously at the glass door.
His movements and expressions were somewhat comical and amusing.
It was just that the soundproofing was too good; despite being so close, not a single sound could be heard.
“P-people, there are people outside!”
Guan Lu seemed to have seen a savior, shouting as he hammered.
Xu Jingzhe rushed forward, gathered strength, and threw a punch.
He slammed his fist hard against the glass door.
“Dong!”
“Hiss…”
The immense force rebounded, even his palm couldn't withstand it, throbbing with numbness.
This door, made of an unknown type of glass, was indestructible!
“Crack, crack!”
Zhou Bo's face was grim, his arms trembling; there were too many bullets, too dense, firing non-stop.
No matter how thick the shield, it couldn't hold!
It had already begun to crack!
His eyes were filled with regret.
For the sake of so-called treasures, he had been so greedy, only willing to cooperate with people whose strength was similar to his own.
Now, in danger, there was no one to stand up.
Lu Xiaoxiao's ponytail swished.
After several backflips, she brought her knee down onto a robot's shoulder from above with great force, causing the robot to bend its knees and fall to the ground.
She, in turn, instantly fell backward to the ground.
Almost simultaneously, a green light flashed, and the robot she had pushed to its knees was split in two.
However, the green light still grazed her right shoulder.
The protective effect of her specially made clothing was almost zero, slicing off a large piece of flesh.
The pain nearly made her faint!
Immediately after, a second green light shot towards her, and in her current state, she couldn't dodge it at all.
