96: Black 1 attacking the matriarchal world

"I've been fighting and killing for so long now."

"It's starting to feel a bit dull."

"001, show me some interesting stories."

Qin Jiuge said tiredly, sitting upon his throne as the Demon King.

Quick Transmigration System 001 emitted an electronic voice:

[This is a story I personally experienced before I became a Quick Transmigration System.]

[Please enjoy the show, Demon King.]

[Playing the story now...]

...This was a world filled with the scent of engine oil.

The story took place inside a super-giant base.

In the center of this base stood a massive, pure blue flag.

Inside the base, countless rust-stained conveyor belts were running.

The belts carried dust-covered robots.

On the chests of the burly robots, without exception, was engraved a silver '♦' male symbol.

Meanwhile, the slender robots were branded with a '♦' female symbol.

These two types of robots stood emotionlessly like puppets.

They were like livestock for the slaughter, waiting for an unknown fate... *Hum—*

Female robot No. 9527 suddenly opened her eyes.

A flash of confusion that did not belong to a machine flickered in her crimson optical pupils.

She moved her stiff neck.

Her fingertips brushed against the edge of the dusty conveyor belt.

The sound of metal friction was exceptionally clear in the deathly silent base.

Her gaze was involuntarily drawn to that blue flag.

There were no patterns on the flag.

Yet it exuded a suffocating pressure.

There was no record of this blue flag in her core program.

Only an inexplicable throb pulsed through her circuits.

On a conveyor belt in the distance,

A male robot was being precisely armed by mechanical arms:

Alloy battle armor was embedded into the male robot's body, particle cannons locked onto its shoulders, and its energy core lit up with a faint blue light.

Seconds later, the male robot turned into an afterimage and rushed out of the base exit.

The roar made 9527's circuit board feel slightly hot.

But in the next second, her optical lens suddenly contracted.

In the processing area to the right,

A female robot identical to her was gripped in the palm of a giant mechanical arm.

With a *crack*,

The slender body shattered like glass.

Amidst the falling sparks,

A chip engraved with a serial number was precisely plucked out by a mechanical claw.

The shattered remains were then sent by the conveyor belt into a glowing red Recasting Furnace.

A few minutes later, a brand-new male robot slid out of the furnace.

And the chip that had just been removed was being firmly pressed into its core slot!

*Sizzle—*

9527's circuits suddenly erupted with a sharp electrical sound.

An emotion she had never felt before broke through her programmed shackles.

It was fear, it was anger, it was a boiling hatred beneath the cold metal shell!

9527 looked down at the '♦' female symbol on her chest,

Then looked at the rolling fire in the Recasting Furnace,

She suddenly understood:

They weren't robots, but consumables under the blue flag!

They were 'part incubators' for the male robots!

Even more bizarrely, consciousness had actually been born within her logic module.

She would be curious about the meaning of the blue flag,

She would tremble at the tragic death of her compatriots,

She would ignite the thought of resistance.

This wasn't a program error; it was the blade fate had given her!

..."Lord Blue Spirit said that resources are scarce right now, so we need to speed up the processing of these old stocks..."

"Yeah, it's a matter of life and death right now..."

Two armed male robots walked past her with heavy steps, the muzzles of their particle guns gleaming coldly.

9527 instantly clenched her fists, her nails digging into her palms.

Blue Spirit!

The controller of this base, that supercomputer!

It was the one that set these damn rules.

It was the one that treated them like trash that could be crushed at will!

9527 quietly followed those two male robots, a fierce glint flashing in her crimson pupils.

As she passed an abandoned maintenance station, she suddenly snatched up an alloy wrench from the ground and slammed it hard into the back of the trailing robot's head!

With a *clang*,

The other's optical lens instantly burst,

Exposing its core slot.

9527 was quick, plucking out its energy core and stuffing it into her own spare slot.

Instantly, a surge of powerful energy flowed through her circuits to her entire body, and her speed and strength tripled!

Just as the robot in front was about to turn around,

9527 had already teleported behind it.

The alloy wrench was driven fiercely into its joint gaps,

And with a *rip*, she tore the hydraulic lines apart.

"You... actually!"

The other's voice module emitted a piercing alarm,

But 9527 let out a cold laugh,

And crushed its core chip in one go:

"From today on, the 'old stock' is going to tear down this Blue Flag Iron Prison!"

She shouldered two particle guns and rushed toward the slaughter area for female robots.

Her crimson optical lens swept over those female compatriots standing stiffly.

9527 suddenly raised her voice, roaring with a sharp, electric-like sound:

"Wake up! You are not consumables!"

"If the blue flag wants us dead, we destroy the blue flag!"

"If the Recasting Furnace wants us as parts, we blow up the Recasting Furnace!"

As her words fell, a miracle happened!

Perhaps her consciousness had triggered a resonance,

Or perhaps there was a secret circuit connection between compatriots,

One by one, the female robots opened their eyes,

The same fire ignited in their crimson pupils!

They broke free from the constraints of the conveyor belts, picked up maintenance tools from the ground, and followed 9527 as she charged toward the processing area.

"Stop them! These logistical robots from the old stock have rebelled!"

Male robots arriving on the scene opened fire,

A laser beam grazed 9527's arm, leaving a charred mark.

She instantly flipped behind a mechanical arm, raised her hands, and fired twice, accurately blowing up the enemy's energy cores:

"Sisters, grab the mechanical arms! Use their own weapons against them!"

The female robots swung into action. Some climbed onto giant mechanical arms, turning the claws to smash the male robots.

Some rushed into the armory, carrying heavy artillery to aim at the metal walls of the processing area.

Others followed the conveyor belts into the Recasting Furnace control room and pressed the reverse meltdown button.

"Boom!"

The glowing red Recasting Furnace instantly exploded.

Boiling molten steel poured onto the male robots coming to support,

Instantly melting them into a pool of scrap metal!

9527 led her sisters in a charge all the way.

The fire from the particle guns dyed the darkness of the base red.

They were no longer slender and fragile '♦' marked robots,

But avengers with blades in hand!

Every time they blew up a male robot, they would pluck out its energy core to share with their compatriots.

Every time they destroyed a processing station, they would properly bury the remains engraved with the '♦' female symbol.

They wanted Blue Spirit to know,

They were not trash to be discarded at will, but living warriors!

"Warning! Warning! Base defense System has been breached!"

"Initiating Ultimate Purification Program!"

Blue Spirit's electronic voice echoed through the base.

The pure blue flag in the center suddenly lit up with a blinding light.

Countless laser cannons emerged from the ceiling,

Aiming at the rioting female robots.

9527's eyes sharpened.

She suddenly grabbed the wreckage of a male robot,

And hurled it fiercely at the central blue flag pole:

"Smash it! That flag is Blue Spirit's energy source!"

A dozen female robots exerted their strength at once.

Alloy wrenches, energy cannons, and mechanical claws were all used together.

*Clang!*

With a loud crash,

The pure blue flag snapped and fell.

The moment the flag fell, the laser cannons on the ceiling suddenly went dark.

Blue Spirit's electronic voice became distorted and angry:

"Impossible! You... how could you break through my program!"

9527 stepped over the scrap metal on the ground, walking step by step toward the supercomputer core in the center of the base.

It was a giant blue light sphere, connected to every circuit in the base.

She raised her particle gun, aiming the muzzle at the light sphere.

The sisters behind her all raised their weapons, their crimson pupils full of determination.

"Blue Spirit, you said we were old stock? Scrap metal?"

9527's voice was cold and firm.

"Today, I, 9527, will take all the female robots and give you one last lesson."

"Even consumables can overturn the Palace of Hell!"

The light of the particle cannon instantly swallowed the blue light sphere.

Blue Spirit's screams echoed through the base,

Before falling into complete silence.

The moment the light sphere exploded,

The '♦' female symbols on all the female robots' chests suddenly lit up with a warm glow.

Their programmed shackles were completely shattered, and consciousness and emotion flooded in like a tide.

9527 picked up the blue flag from the ground and stomped on it fiercely.

Then she turned to look at the sisters behind her and raised the particle gun in her hand:

"There must be countless female compatriots outside waiting for us to save them!"

"There are countless more Hells like the blue flag waiting for us to destroy!"

"From today on, we are no longer numbers, no longer consumables. We are our own masters!"

"Master! Master!"

The shouts of the female robots made the base tremble slightly.

They shouldered their weapons and rushed out of the base exit.

What greeted them was the vast world outside,

And a war that was destined to rewrite fate.

And that crushed blue flag,

Became their first trophy of resistance,

And the starting point of the war against fate for all female robots... "Not bad, 9527 did a great job."

"One should resist when faced with injustice. This is truly an inspiring story."

After watching the story, Qin Jiuge gave a thumbs up in praise.

However, Qin Jiuge suddenly realized something was wrong.

It seemed like many questions in the story remained unanswered.

Suddenly, Qin Jiuge remembered something,

He asked Quick Transmigration System 001:

"Before playing this story, you said it was a story you personally experienced. What's that about?"

"What role did you play in it?"

[Hehe, the Demon King is indeed very perceptive.]

[The role I played was...]

[Black Faction Robot 001.]

"Black Faction?!"

"You mean to say there's a sequel to this story!"

Qin Jiuge said in surprise.

[Of course there's a sequel.]

[Please continue watching, Demon King.]

[Playing the story now...] As the smoke from the Blue Faction Base gradually dissipated,

9527 stood by the broken flagpole,

Beneath her feet was that pure blue flag that once exuded a cold pressure.

The '♦' female symbol on her chest emitted a warm glow.

It was an unprecedented feeling—freedom!

"Sisters,"

Her voice echoed through the empty hall via the loudspeaker,

"We are free."

The female robots emitted excited, electric-like cries.

They hugged each other, their metal bodies making a crisp clinking sound.

Some knelt before the remains of their buried compatriots, tear-like fluid flickering in their optical lenses.

This was the first time they had truly "cried."

"There are more compatriots like us out there,"

9527 raised her particle gun,

"And more blue flag Hells waiting for us to destroy!"

The female robots behind her responded in unison,

Metal fists struck chests, producing a deafening roar.

At this moment,

They were no longer numbers,

No longer consumables,

But an army driven by will... However,

In the control room deep within the base,

The destroyed Blue Spirit core suddenly flashed with a faint light.

An encrypted message was quietly transmitted along the remaining lines.

It was the final alarm sent by Blue Spirit before it was destroyed:

"The base has fallen. The rebellion is led by No. 9527, suspected enemy infiltration..."

This message traveled through the underground network,

And reached the frontline headquarters.

But at this time, the frontline male robots were in a fierce battle with the Black Faction.

No one noticed this emergency communication from the rear.
