546: Chapter 594 The terror of the Machine Race!
No emotional fluctuation could be seen on the fair, oval face of the Mecha Armor Race girl. Her red lips moved as she asked, "May I ask, what does it feel like to have a heart?"
This question left the three Mercury State Race contestants dumbfounded.
What did that mean?
What does 'what does it feel like to have a heart' mean?
The three exchanged glances, each seeing the same bewilderment in the others' eyes.
"Is it possible that this girl is a robot and has no heart?" one Mercury State Race contestant whispered, lowering his voice as he spoke to his two companions.
"We can indeed confirm she's a robot from various aspects, but the key is, how should we answer this question?"
Another Mercury State Race contestant also kept his voice very low.
"What if our answer displeases her, causing her to attack directly? The feeling she gives me is even more terrifying than An Ke..."
This was also the reason the three Mercury State Race contestants dared not act rashly.
An Ke could handle them with one punch each, like dealing with children. So how terrifying would this girl before them, who seemed even more frightening than him, be?
Could she handle them with just a single finger?
"May I ask, what does it feel like to have a heart?"
Seeing that the three Mercury State Race contestants had not answered, the Mecha Armor Race girl asked once more.
Although she made no additional movements, it inexplicably made the three Mercury State Race contestants somewhat tense.
"What should we do now? My sense of crisis is getting stronger and stronger..." one Mercury State Race contestant spoke nervously.
"I believe if we can't give her an answer soon, we'll die..."
The three Mercury State Race contestants soon saw the girl's pupils gradually turning red before them, as if they were about to reach a limit.
The pressure on the three of them also grew increasingly intense.
Finally, one Mercury State Race contestant could no longer withstand such pressure.
Gritting his teeth, he said, "Anyway, let's answer her first. It might buy us some time."
So he gave the girl an answer: "The feeling of having a heart is that your chest throbs, and you can clearly feel that you are alive."
The Mercury State contestant felt there was nothing wrong with his answer.
After all, the heart naturally causes the chest to throb, and that is proof of a living being's existence.
Even if the girl was dissatisfied with this answer, it could at least buy them a little more time.
He could sense that if they didn't answer soon, the girl would quickly attack.
Opposite him, the Mecha Armor Race girl spoke, her expression still blank: "Since I have no heart, but my chest also throbs."
"This is a meaningless answer. Nicole cannot extract any useful information from it. Therefore, I judge that your existence holds no meaning for Nicole."
"All meaningless things should be erased, otherwise they will only hinder the development of civilization..."
This lengthy statement from Nicole made the answering Mercury State contestant's heart skip a beat.
"E-erased?"
Are you kidding?
Resorting to violence over a simple disagreement?
Seeing that Nicole's pupils had already turned so red they began to glow, and that sense of crisis grew heavier and heavier.
Even reaching a suffocating density.
"Damn it! This girl's brain is really messed up... her behavior is simply incomprehensible."
This Mercury State contestant's mentality was beginning to crack.
He started to act recklessly. Staying put meant death anyway, so he might as well take a gamble.
As long as he could escape to his own Civilization Game territory, he wouldn't need to fear either An Ke or this girl.
Once the thought arose, this Mercury State contestant instantly erupted into action, using his fastest speed in an attempt to bypass the girl, enter the [teleportation channel], and reach his game territory.
His speed was extremely fast, requiring little time to accelerate from a standstill.
In the blink of an eye, he had circumvented the girl and was heading straight for the [teleportation channel].
Watching the [teleportation channel] draw closer and closer, this Mercury State contestant couldn't help but laugh loudly: "Almost there! Almost there!"
"Soon, I'll be able to leave this damned place!"
However, right at that moment.
A voice devoid of any emotion came from behind: "Code Unlock · Pseudo-Code · Dragon's Roar."
This Mercury State contestant only felt an immense surge of energy rushing towards him from behind.
Before this energy, he felt as insignificant as a speck of dust.
He wanted to look back, but his consciousness was already sinking...
A red laser pierced through this Mercury State contestant and also pierced through the [teleportation channel] ahead.
The [teleportation channel] emitted a cracking, shattering sound.
The laser did not stop. Starting from the Mecha Armor Race girl, it slashed diagonally through the void. The moment it made contact with the ground, heaven and earth turned into a vast expanse of white.
Intense light, followed by an almost suffocating silence. After the silence came a deafening roar like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami, the lament of the earth, and rapidly rising mushroom clouds.
Outside, all the viewers in the live broadcast room were shocked.
Whether human or from other civilizations.
"Is this destructive power for real?"
"It's no less devastating than a dozen nuclear bombs."
"Is this really just the damage from a single attack?"
"Is this the true worth of an S-Class?"
"..."
Inside the game.
A shockwave swept forth, charging directly towards An Ke and the others.
Tiger Mom immediately stepped in front of the group. With a loud shout, she summoned thunderclouds to stir up a hurricane.
Using the hurricane to block the massive wave capable of destroying a city.
Fortunately, because the laser landed at a considerable distance, the residual force of the shockwave wasn't that terrifying.
If it had exploded any closer, all of them would have been caught in the blast.
Given this destructive power, casualties would have been normal.
Jin Gang's eyes widened. "Seriously? Using a cannon to swat a mosquito?"
"So scawwy. Little Mouse doesn't know if I could withstand that explosion." Three Hairs looked at An Ke. "Master, master, do you think Little Mouse could?"
"I don't know." An Ke shook his head.
Three Hairs had high hardness, but its melting point wasn't high.
If the temperature reached a certain level, no matter how hard it was, it would be fatal for Three Hairs.
Kuku felt a bit distressed: "That attack destroyed a lot of the territory I had covered..."
His body had covered a considerable area of the island, acting as a super surveillance system for An Ke's group.
This one attack had cost him at least several dozen kilometers of visual range.
"S-Class is even stronger and more terrifying than we imagined..." Little Roman murmured.
An Ke nodded.
This Mecha Armor Race's attack had also exceeded his expectations.
The destructive power it caused made even him feel a pang of fear.
A single attack from an S-Class Civilization contestant already possessed the power to destroy a city.
"This is a bit troublesome..." An Ke frowned slightly.
The terrifying destructive power of the S-Class made him feel challenged.
After the other party eliminated the Mercury State Race, would they turn their spearhead towards his group?
Didn't the other party just ask: what does it feel like to have a heart?
If an answer could satisfy her, would that mean they wouldn't be attacked?
This Mecha Armor Race girl seemed to be following some kind of predetermined program...
So, could there be some room for him to maneuver, to trick this girl?
