91: War Machine-Scar, Stars Become Stars
After instinctively retracting his arm and stepping back.
The powder gushing from the star iron seemed to lose its guidance, paused for a moment, and then slowly drifted back to where the star iron was.
At the same time, a strand of Yang Dian's long hair behind his head moved without wind, coiling around his ear.
"Beep ~ beep ~"
Feeling the happy emotions coming from Dudu, Yang Dian looked at the star iron with some complexity.
He opened his mouth, about to say something, when a flurry of footsteps suddenly sounded from outside.
In the blink of an eye, a group of security personnel wearing exoskeleton armor and carrying unknown but clearly high-tech firearms rushed into the exhibition hall, aiming their guns at Yang Dian and the old man standing in front of the display case.
"Hands up, don't move!"
The old man looked back at them, then waved his hand:
"There was a small accident, don't make a fuss."
The leading security personnel raised his hand, and the others surrounding them immediately put away their firearms, saluted him and the old man, and then exited the exhibition hall.
However, the leader did not leave, taking two steps forward to stand beside Yang Dian and the old man.
He glanced at Yang Dian, then looked at the display case:
"Old Qian, why did the display case suddenly crack?"
Qian Xueming looked at Yang Dian:
"You'll have to ask this young comrade."
Yang Dian turned to look at the person in exoskeleton armor, then back at the star iron inside the display case, which was still slowly reabsorbing the powder.
Before he could speak, a crackling sound suddenly erupted.
The next moment, the exhibition hall door shattered, and a dark figure stumbled and fell into the exhibition hall.
"Number: 9527."
"Codename: Scar."
"Here to protect!"
Looking at the robot that got up from the ground, wearing a large gold chain and a small watch, with a nameplate hanging askew on its head, mechanical eyes blinking, and "Serving the People" written on its display screen.
Yang Dian looked at the two people beside him with some bewilderment.
Qian Xueming's eye twitched:
"Scar."
"A combat robot built with the most cutting-edge domestic technology, powered by nuclear Fusion, and possessing all-terrain combat capabilities."
"It's loaded with nine strange items and is one of our trump cards against Beast King-level mutated creatures."
"It's just that there was a small accident during activation."
Qian Xueming pointed to his head, saying nothing more, but those who understood, understood.
"You can think of it as Silicon-based life."
"Of course, he is also our good comrade."
Hearing the words "good comrade," Scar blinked his electronic eyes, puffed out his chest, his red flag on his chest gleaming, and extended his right hand to Yang Dian:
"Hello, comrade, I am Scar, affiliated with the Huaxia Martial Security Bureau, number 9527."
Yang Dian instinctively reached out and shook his hand:
"Hello, comrade, I am Yang Dian, a Second-Level Peacekeeper of the Huaxia Abnormal Affairs Administration."
Seeing Yang Dian's action, Qian Xueming reached out and slapped his head:
"Scar, listen to my command."
Scar stood at attention:
"I am here!"
"Guard the door!"
"Mission accomplished."
With that, he strutted out the door, holding his rifle and blocking the broken entrance.
Yang Dian blinked, withdrawing his gaze from Scar:
"Old Qian, how many of these war robots do we have?"
Qian Xueming held up his index finger:
"There are many war robots, but there is only one Scar."
Perhaps not wanting to dwell on the topic, Qian Xueming's gaze fell back on the display case.
"Enough about that, let's talk about the star iron, shall we?"
"We've conducted related experiments before, but no matter how we experimented, the star iron always remained sluggish."
"It reacts to everyone, but all its reactions are exactly the same."
"Slow, like an old man."
"Why is it different when it comes to you?"
Yang Dian thought of Dudu, and also of the pool of energy in the place where the Soul resides.
But after careful consideration, the greatest possibility was still Dudu.
"Old Qian, can you tell me when and where this star iron was obtained?"
Qian Xueming frowned in thought for a moment, then looked at Yang Dian's hair and said thoughtfully:
"Nine days ago, the military unexpectedly obtained it in low Earth orbit while testing an aerospace fighter."
"They studied it for two days without finding anything, so they sent it to us."
As he spoke, he pointed to Yang Dian's hair again:
"Speaking of which, that little guy on your head, which you named Starlight Jellyfish, was also caught by you around those days, wasn't he?"
"That little guy, just from its appearance, also sparkles like starlight, very similar to the star iron."
Seeing that the old man knew everything, Yang Dian simply had a thought.
Dudu began to detach from the Fusion state.
Strands of hair behind his head moved without wind; as they swayed, they quickly merged, instantly transforming into glowing tentacles.
A flash of starlight, and Dudu transformed into a hat, covering Yang Dian's head.
"Dudu ~ Dudu ~"
After slightly squeezing Yang Dian's head, Dudu exerted a force and flew to the display case where the star iron was placed, circling the case and emitting joyful chirps.
As Dudu chirped, the spherical star iron suddenly began to expand.
It easily shattered the bulletproof glass display case, which was said to be impervious to heavy sniper rifles.
After pushing open the display case, the star iron continued to float upward and expand.
Until it filled the entire exhibition hall ceiling, transforming into a vast sea of stars.
Dudu swam around in the sea of stars, emitting joyful "Dudu ~ Dudu ~" calls.
After playing in the sea of stars for a while, Dudu seemed to remember something, extended a tentacle, and wrapped it around Yang Dian's wrist.
With a gentle tug, Yang Dian floated up as if weightless, pulled into the sea of stars by Dudu.
Feeling the sense of security that arose from his heart after entering the sea of stars, Yang Dian looked at Dudu in a daze:
"So, this is your home?"
"You used to live in the sky, not in the sea?"
Dudu turned around and "plopped" onto Yang Dian's head.
He couldn't speak, only continuously radiated happy emotions towards Yang Dian.
He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.
Looking at the sea of stars swirling around him, Yang Dian suddenly had a thought that he seemed to be able to control it.
He tried to extend one hand.
The next moment, a large expanse of starlight attached itself to Yang Dian's arm.
Yang Dian's eyes lit up.
'More, please.'
'Turn directly into a nano mecha for me!'
Unfortunately, things didn't go as he wished.
The amount of starlight controlled by Yang Dian was limited.
Even if he used all his strength, he could only condense an arm guard on his right forearm using the starlight.
Condensing his Qi and blood to the tip of his right finger, reversing the growth into a bloody Dragon claw, Yang Dian then swiped at the starlight arm guard.
"Screech ~ ~"
A harsh scratching sound rang out; the arm guard wasn't completely undamaged, but it only had a scratch.
And in just the blink of an eye, the scratch disappeared.
'So, how can I fully control the star iron, control this sea of stars?'
