Chapter 370 Children, don’t be afraid.
In the thick fog, the fifty drones were hovering in the sky like falcons, and the machine gun muzzles began to rotate slowly, accompanied by a low buzzing sound.
Bang, bang, bang—
The silence of the dark night was broken, and the firelight flickered like a bright meteor shower.
That was the moment when the bullet was fired from the machine gun, piercing the sky and creating a brilliant light and shadow. These bullets left a series of short and bright trajectories in the air, like drawing a complex astronomical map in the thick fog. The bright firelight and bullets intertwined in the sky, forming a huge web of firepower, like a spider web in the sky. Whenever the bullet meets the fog, a faint vapor is produced, like stars flashing through the clouds in the night sky.
Ioni took the lead and stood in front of the two companions. Looking at the fire like a meteor shower, her eyes unconsciously revealed a sense of despair.
"It seems that this is the end of our journey..." Ioni said bitterly in her heart.
The builder admired the desperate expressions of the three people. He said to the three people in an extremely cold tone:
"Die, disgusting insects..."
『Buzz——』
Tick-tock~
Tick-tock~
In the chilling silence, two completely different sounds sounded simultaneously - a roar of thunder and a series of regular ticks.
The whole world seems to have been stripped of color, and the whole world seems to have been robbed of sound.
The sound of sharp and tearing bullets suddenly became eternal silence. The endless bullets seemed to be held by a huge palm, and every dynamic element suspended in the air was frozen—— Countless bullets that have not yet landed are frozen in the air, like thousands of metal bees hovering on their stage.
The thick fog, the rolling clouds and mists, seemed to be tightly grasped by the giant hand of time and stagnant. Their winding rolling trajectory became extremely obvious and became still. The rolling clouds and mists also stopped and became fixed. at the moment they are frozen.
The light in the sky, due to the shuttle of bullets and the flames of the machine, should have been colorful and bizarre. But at this moment when time stopped, the entire picture took on a strange monotonous tone. All the colors seemed to be stripped away, leaving only a strange gray-blue color. Not only is this tone depressing, it's like proof of being trapped in a time prison.
『Time Slot——』
『Time Distortion·Pause! 』
“Oh, look what I found, a wild builder who is not active on the front lines of the war.”
A twisted Möbius strip appeared in front of the builder. A handsome young man with blond hair and golden eyes stepped out of the twisted space ripples. The illusive purple-gold avatar behind the blond young man raised his right fist high and tight. His muscles seemed to ripple slightly under the monotonous light, and the compressed space ripples wrapped around his huge fist.
『Vector control! 』+『Boundless power! 』
Boom——
The battle prosthetic body designed by the builder with the most advanced [Valden Metal] and [Elder Blueprint] was penetrated straight through, and the huge fist was like a meteorite It penetrated straight through his abdomen, followed by a dull loud noise. At this moment, sparks flew everywhere, and these flying sparks lost their color in an instant and were frozen.
The gears, pistons and mechanical devices inside the builder were exposed under the firelight. Their originally steady and orderly operation was disrupted by this fatal blow, making a harsh friction sound. The metal structure expanded due to the extreme temperature, and brown mechanical liquid spurted out from the penetration hole, burning into silver flames. The gears and mechanical devices became distorted in the flames, and some even began to melt and flow into molten iron.
They happen quietly, and then are frozen again.
In this gray and monotonous world, except for Xia Xiu and his incarnation, everyone else is like bugs stuck in the web of time. Not only can they not move, but they are also slaughtered at will by the king of time. .
Puff——
[Sisyphus] retracted his fist, and a new Möbius strip appeared under the trio below, and then the space began to distort. , the trio was brought to Xia Xiu.
"Time begins to flow." The blond young man said.
At this moment, 3.23 seconds have passed in the monotonous world.
『Buzz——』
With the blond young man as the center, the monotonous world is once again filled with his colors.
Bang bang bang——
The bullets drew a long trajectory in the night sky, as if countless meteors fell at the same time, shooting to the empty ground, leaving behind Many small holes.
"···Bugs···"
As soon as the builder finished speaking, there were numerous system errors and red warnings, and the circuit board of the built-in mechanical brain began to overheat and emit a burning smell. Part of the smoke filled the surrounding area, creating a suffocating scene.
The builder knelt down weakly on the ground, and the metal mask on his face fell off. It was a mechanical face, but the mechanical face that should have been calm and cold was now filled with pain and disbelief.
Why...what...what...
"What is going on!?"
Ione, Nina, and George looked at this scene with blank expressions.
From their perspective, they were originally ready to die, and then, in the next second, they inexplicably appeared at the builder's position, behind the drone. At this moment, the original enemy's chest was opened with a huge hole, the gears, pistons and circuit boards were exposed, and their faces were covered with the fear and despair that should have appeared on their faces.
The three people subconsciously looked at the sudden appearance of the blond young man. This sudden appearance of the young man may be related to this strange, bizarre and incomprehensible scene.
Ioni suppressed the sense of absurdity in her heart and opened her thin lips slightly when she was about to ask something.
"You are..."
Poof——
[Sisyphus] tore off the metal head of the builder, and then floated behind Xia Xiu with the head splashing with fire, and Xia Xiu also heard the sound and turned around. Looking over his head, his golden eyes reflected the trio whose faces turned extremely pale. He smiled warmly and reassured:
"Children, don't be afraid, I am a passing angel, I am... ··”
As he spoke, he had not stopped the movement of his hand. Countless fluorescent green particles floated out of his right hand, and these particles soon covered all the drones.
『Fantasy particles·incremental particles! 』
"Particle attachment·Prosthetic body seizes the body!" 』
Those drones that originally stopped due to losing the builder's instructions made a "beep" sound. Then, without the care of the builder, the internal core control chips and modules were directly [ Incremental Particle], and then was forcibly attached by the Meme virus written by Xia Xiu to seize internal control. As for the builder's head being held up by [Sisyphus], he could watch his mechanical devices being violently squeezed out of the backstage, and watch them turn into the shape of someone else.
Buzzing--
The drones were arrayed above the blond young man, and then he asked them to do it in front of the original owner. He assumed his favorite flying pose.
It didn't take long for Xia Xiu to do all this, and he didn't even have time to say a word, so when the drone formed a strange flying formation under the builder's eyes with splitting eyes, when the three Ioni looked frightened When he looked at himself, he finally finished what he just said.
“···I am a good person.”
Ioni: “·······”
Nina: “····· ··”
George: “······”
"You don't believe it?"
The blond young man blinked his golden eyes and put on a pure expression of "I am really a good person."
The three of them looked at the builder who was being held by [Sisyphus] in his hand. Because he couldn't stand the stimulation, the brain chip overheated to the point where it started to smoke, and they unanimously chose to believe it.
After Xia Xiu briefly teased his three subordinates, he got down to business.
While he was on the road, he received a synchronized record from [Adam]. It showed the record of Ioni's fight with the Deep Diver. The strength of the Deep Diver shown in the record was far greater. It exceeded the standard. This was no longer the strength that an ordinary deep diver should have. He was keenly aware of something unusual in it, so he decisively chose to change his destination and rush here.
Unexpectedly, before the deep diver's anomaly was found, he encountered the builder first.
“Okay, the simple greetings are over, let’s get down to business. You first open [Adam], update the mission diary, restore the genealogy network connection, and then open the peripheral control section, I will The authority of these drones is transferred to you."
[The signal has been restored——]
[The mission diary has been updated——]
[Authority One detected. Level sequence authority personnel! ]
[Investigator of the Bureau Sequence 00-1 (the fourth sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven): Hugh Abraham! ]
[Please obey his instructions unconditionally——]
[You have an external link application——]
[Initiated by high-sequence personnel, you cannot refuse! ]
[Peripheral link: Prosthetic Body·Shake Control (Flying Device X50)]
"Ah..., um, okay."
When they heard [Adam]'s series of instructions and measures, the three of them looked in front of them with expressions of surprise, shock, or astonishment. This blond young man with a warm smile.
Hugh Abraham, one of the founders of the Authority, the celestial sword-bearer who walks on Terra...
The painting of the character he and the three of them originally imagined in their minds It's different, both appearance and personality are different from their imagined image.
Ioni hurriedly took over the control of the shaking sense handed over by the fourth sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven.
"I've seen your battle records. Your fighting skills are very good, with a bit of the military style of the Oletin Empire and the fighting atmosphere of the Colosseum. The module is also very good, but it lacks some movement skills and walking skills. If you want to continue on the road of high explosiveness, you’d better make up for your shortcomings.”
Xia Xiu gave some advice to the nervous Ioni. , he glanced at the opponent's pair of deformed devil claws, and the opponent seemed to notice his gaze, and subconsciously put his claws behind his back, showing an expression of embarrassment and fear.
Ioni is very concerned about other people's attention to her alienated parts. Moreover, the person who is paying attention to her now is the fourth sword holder of the Kingdom of Heaven. She is very afraid that her abnormal parts will cause dissatisfaction to the other party, which will lead to He lost his only place of refuge and... home, the Administration Bureau.
"When I have a little free time, I can teach you some fighting skills of the Blood God. Don't worry, I will let [Adam] prepare the record and upload it to the database, and neither the management nor the angels will pursue it. What are you doing?"
The blond young man's words surprised Ioni, and she subconsciously said:
"Is it really okay!?"
The blond young man just smiled in affirmation.
"You take the drone and the body of the deep diver and report it to Teresa. I have some things to deal with here."
The blond young man said to the three of them. After saying this, he took the builder's head and disappeared in front of the three people under the distortion of the Möbius strip.
After the blond young man left, the three of Ioni looked at each other, and the scene was extremely silent for a while.
If it weren't for the headless corpses of deep divers on the ground and the many drones floating above, they would have thought that everything they had just experienced was an illusion.
"I think we should go back and report to Ms. Teresa quickly. I looked at the message box and she has sent us more than 300 messages..."< br>
Ioni was the first to break the silence and spoke to the two of them.
“Okay.”
“Yeah.”
In this way, the trio began to return to the meeting point with the headless body of the deep diver and the drones.
************
The other side.
In the thick fog, a beautiful lady stood upright, her armor shining coldly in the faint light. Her long hair was flowing in the wind, and her deep eyes shone with determination and determination.
Five deformed figures slowly formed a semicircle around her. Their eyes shone with fish-like indifference, and the scales and water plants on their bodies looked even more sinister in the moist air. But the lady remained unmoved. The sharp sword in her hand reflected the sharp light, indicating an upcoming bloody battle.
Suddenly, her body moved like lightning, and the sword light drew a bright trajectory in the air, accompanied by a clear sound of metal collision. The head of the first deep diver drew a half-arc in the air, and then fell to the ground, with blood gurgling from his neck.
During this shock, the other Deep Ones quickly attacked her. But she seemed to have foreseen every step they took, her body flexibly shuttled between them, and all the sword blades struck were fatal blows. Whenever the sword edge cuts through the deep diver's body, it will bring up a mist of blood, which will mix with the mist, presenting a magical scene.
In less than a moment, there were four headless corpses on the ground, and the lady looked like the god of war coming to the world, majestic.
The last deep diver tried to launch a surprise attack from behind her, but she seemed to have been prepared and avoided the fatal blow with one side of her body. Then, she turned around, and the sword in her hand was like the scythe of death, and she quickly struck the deep diver's neck.
Just hearing a soft "chi" sound, the deep diver's head flew up again, and the experience of the other four companions was the same.
The battle ended, and in the thick fog, only the lady in medium armor was left standing among the five headless corpses. The blood dripping from the sword tip blended with the fog, adding an eerie touch to this dead space. Chilling red.
The moment the five corpses fell to the ground, bright white flames began to burn from their bodies, burning everything about them.
"Huh~, the signal has been restored, all three of them are fine."
Teresa breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, she held her sword and looked at the space in front of her that was beginning to distort.
"The fourth sword-bearer in heaven..."
