My timeless tavern

Chapter 565 Alita's Mission
A gleam of light gradually appeared in Alita's eyes.

Memories of the past flooded into her mind like a tide.

She thought back to her training in the Martian Alliance, the mysterious and powerful mecha arts, and her purpose in coming to Earth.

She wants to destroy Salem!

Her eyes gradually became firm.

"How about it, do you remember it now?" Hua Mulan's words interrupted her thoughts.

"Oh, yes," Alita said, coming back to her senses and looking around, "I haven't said thank you yet."

"It's just a small matter," Tushan Honghong waved her hand, "It's not too late to thank you another day. You haven't told me what you remembered yet?"

Alita pursed her lips and recounted her past in general.

From the time she could remember, she learned mecha skills, was called up to become a Fire Alliance warrior, and came to Earth on a spaceship to destroy the floating cities, leaving only Salem behind.

"Those living in those floating cities are just bodies without souls. They are self-righteous, high and mighty, and enslave ordinary people," Alita said in a deep voice with murderous intent in her eyes, "Only by destroying them can mankind have a future!"

"You mean, the people living in the floating city are all robots?" Daenerys asked curiously.

Two months ago, a new person named Sarah came to the pub.

When Sarah first came to the tavern, she was being chased.

Daenerys enthusiastically offered her help, and then learned that the one chasing her was a robot, and there was another robot protecting her in secret.

From the robot that protected Sarah, Daenerys learned that the world would be ruled by a robot called Skynet in the future, with the intention of exterminating humans.

She was so impressed by this incident that she thought of it the first time she saw Alita.

After all, Alita's mechanical body is amazing.

The only difference between her and the robots she had seen was that her brain was still human.

Daenerys could sense this.

Alita thought for two seconds and shook her head: "They are half."

"Why?" Yingning asked curiously.

She is no longer a technology novice, and at least she understands what robots mean.

"Their bodies are just like yours..."

When they heard Alita's words, their expressions became strange.

Hua Mulan almost said, "You are the odd one out."

"But they don't have brains," Alita said, changing the subject. "People living in the floating city will have their brains removed during the coming-of-age ceremony and replaced with chips..."

"They can only think and live according to the rulers' wishes. Once they have any offensive thoughts or the possibility of seeing the truth, their thoughts will be tampered with, expelled, or even wiped out!"

"This group of monsters who have lost all human emotions occupy a high position, squander the most precious resources, and enslave real humans. Their existence itself is a blasphemy to the human race!"

Alita's voice was murderous and her eyes were determined.

This is not only the obsession of the Fire Alliance warriors, but also her pursuit.

She wants to overthrow the rule of these monsters, destroy the last floating city, and trample these high-ranking nobles into the dust!
Only then did Hua Mulan realize that she had misunderstood.

She shuddered at the thought of her brain being replaced by a machine and her memory and thoughts being tampered with at any time.

When she heard Alita talk about the difference between Salem and Scrap City earlier, she thought that people living in the floating city must be very lucky.

Now that I think about it, they were just a group of self-righteous zombies!

Daenerys' eyes flickered slightly, and she said, "But someone knows the truth, right?"

"I mean the people who live in that floating city?" she added.

"That must be it," Tushan Honghong saw it clearly and said, "The guy who replaced their brains must be the culprit."

"Think about it, that guy must be very proud of himself for being able to play with a group of superior people at his fingertips!" The little vixen smiled playfully.

Hua Mulan also came to her senses and echoed: "Some people may not be unhappy even if their brains are taken away."

Daenerys nodded. "If those people living in the Iron City had a chance to enter Salem by removing their brains, they might also flock to it!"

Yingning nodded, but her smile faded a little.

Alita shook her head firmly and said, "This is not right!"

"But you can't stop others from making their own choices," Daenerys smiled and shook her head, "otherwise they will become tyrants despised by the people!"

"I can't sit idly by and watch them get deceived," Alita said seriously.

"So you will destroy them?" Daenerys smiled.

"I'm helping them get out of this," Alita said.

"Physical relief?" Daenerys smiled. "They may not like it."

……

Alita's expression became more and more serious, but Daenerys' smile remained the same.

This made Alita feel irritated, and she felt that the other person's smile was particularly glaring.

She is really not good at arguing with others and prefers to resolve disputes with her fists.

What's worse is that she found herself somewhat shaken by what Daenerys said.

Seeing that she no longer defended herself, Daenerys said, "The purpose of war is to achieve strategic goals, not to annihilate the enemy, so there is talk of surrender. Alita, why don't you think about it, what is your ultimate purpose in doing this?"

"Destroy Salem?" Alita's tone became a little uncertain.

Hua Mulan hesitated to speak.

Alita frowned and thought for a few seconds, then gradually realized: "No, I want to eliminate injustice and liberate mankind!"

"Right," Hua Mulan clapped her hands and laughed, saying, "So you don't have to destroy Salem, just kill the main culprit."

"There can be a just trial, so that all the deceived people can know their fate of being fooled and decide their own future!" Daenerys said with a smile.

"The floating city doesn't have to be exclusive to the nobility. Everyone can enter and exit freely. As long as you work hard, you have the opportunity to live there." Tushan Honghong also said, "Maybe it can also be used as a good tourist attraction."

Alita looked thoughtful.

She knew that these people were helping her.

Unfortunately, she is not good at anything other than fighting.

But she soon figured it out.

She is a Fire Alliance Berserker who fights violence with violence!

As long as the culprit is found and killed, someone will naturally take care of the rest.

The instigator, that is, the ruler, seems to be called Nova.

Even though three hundred years have passed, Alita is sure that the other party must still be alive. Then she only has one goal left: kill Nova!
Then let Salem become a free city-state.

Alita clenched her fists unconsciously.

She stood up and said in a deep voice: "I will go back now to complete my mission!"

"Wait," Hua Mulan grabbed her and asked, "What are you going to do with your current body?"

"I know where the spaceship crashed. There is a more powerful body there. I'll ask Dr. Ide to help me change it!" Alita said.

"By the way, Dr. Ide! I have to stop him!" Alita suddenly remembered the purpose of her coming out.

"I know you're anxious, but don't be anxious yet," Tushan Honghong grabbed Alita's other arm and said, "Maybe you should see what's in the tavern first."

"Don't you want to be as powerful as Red?" Daenerys also said.

Yingning just looked at her with a smile.

Alita calmed down a little and sat down.

Tushan Honghong pointed to the wine list and said, "Look what that is."

Alita looked in the direction of her finger and her eyes were quickly attracted by the fine wine.

Noticing her changing expression, Daenerys introduced: "Gold, technology, and all extraordinary treasures can be exchanged for time-space coins, just like the spaceship you mentioned, and even the floating city called Salem, can be exchanged for time-space coins."

"So this body of yours limits your potential. The human body's potential is truly unlimited," Hua Mulan also explained, "You'd better change to a real body!"

"Hey, when will Taiyi Zhenren come back? I'll help you look for him and see if he has time." Tu Shan Honghong saw the fat man on the other side who was eating an elbow and stood up quickly.

"Don't!" Alita was about to stop her, but saw Tushan Honghong had already left in a flash.

Alita's eyes turned away from the wine list, but she couldn't calm down.

She finally understood why these people were so powerful.

By drinking those fine wines, one's physical fitness can be easily strengthened thousands of times. In comparison, those mechanical prosthetic bodies are just like children's toys.

And the most expensive wines can allow people to travel across the universe in the flesh, blow up planets with one punch, and even swallow the sun!

If this place hadn't shocked her so much, Alita would have thought it was a lie.

She suddenly felt that her goal of killing Nova was too insignificant.

After hearing the introduction of Daenerys and the others, she looked at the list of collections in the treasure house again, and her already calm expression became exciting again.

Tushan Honghong had already walked in front of Taiyi Zhenren.

After seeing her finish eating the elbow, she pointed at Alita from a distance and introduced her to her, saying that she wanted help in refining a body.

"I'll provide the ingredients, plus a bottle of nectar..." said Tu Shan Honghong.

She had already secretly calculated that the total was only tens of thousands of time and space coins, which was not a lot for her.

She was happy to help this new friend.

"What materials? Do I need that little money?" Taiyi Zhenren glanced at her, suddenly smiled and said, "I heard that you brewed some bitter love wine with the bitter love leaves. Can you give me a bottle?"

"Haha, it's no big deal. I would have given it to you even if you didn't ask!" Tushan Honghong said with a smile.

"Then let's do it tomorrow. I'll go back and ask someone to get some lotus root powder..." Taiyi Zhenren said, "As for her appearance, ask her if she has any requirements. She looks weird, so she won't want it this way, right?"

"But if you look closely, it's still a bit cute." Taiyi Zhenren said, touching his chin again.

"Then I'll thank the real person on behalf of Alita," Tushan Honghong waved her hand and said, "I'll go tell her now."

After hearing Tushan Honghong's words, Alita was filled with gratitude.

After seeing those fine wines and treasures, she has realized that her mechanical body has become a hindrance to the growth of her own strength.

The mecha skills she was so proud of were worthless in the tavern.

This time she insisted on thanking Taiyi Zhenren in person.

Unfortunately, Jigong had already left, and she didn't have the chance to thank him for the time being.

As for the appearance of her new body, she thinks it's pretty good now.

After chatting with a few people for a while, she decided to go back quickly because she was still thinking about Dr. Yide.

Before leaving, at the suggestion of several people, she asked Xiaolongnu to help her identify the valuable things she had.

When she saw that the price of the mecha was only two hundred time and space coins, even though she was prepared, she still felt a little regretful.

The secret fighting technique that was treasured by the Fire Union and other forces was priced lower than her "heart" worth 500 time and space coins in the tavern. Her emotions were inevitably a little up and down.

She even felt a little bitter, as if the things she treasured had become trash in the eyes of others.

But she quickly suppressed this emotion. Thinking of the magical wines and the various skills contained in them, she felt a strong excitement.

After selling the mecha technique and making an appointment with Tushan Honghong and others to meet again tomorrow, Alita left reluctantly.

When the scene in front of her turned dark, she squinted her eyes slightly uncomfortably.

Looking at the dim light, she even missed the pub she had just left.

But a burst of fighting noises soon attracted Alita's attention.

"Could it be that Doctor Yide took action?"

Alita's heart trembled and she rushed towards the source of the sound.

Although Dr. Yide saved her life, she would not sit idly by and watch him do evil.

He must be stopped!

Alita's figure flashed quickly under the street light, and she found the source of the sound in just a few minutes.

When she saw the scene in front of her, she was suddenly shocked.

It turned out that Dr. Ide was besieged by several cyborgs.

When Alita saw the appearance of the cyborgs clearly, especially the identity of the woman in red, she finally woke up.

Dr. Ide is not an evil looter at all, but a bounty hunter hunting down those thugs!
Now it seems that he has clearly fallen into the trap of these thugs.

Seeing Dr. Ide being knocked to the ground and a hideous-looking cyborg about to give him a fatal blow, Alita rushed out immediately.

Her body rolled nimbly in the air, and her legs were like whips, knocking the cyborg to the ground.

When he saw clearly that it was her, Ide was not happy but surprised, and hurriedly shouted: "Alita, go!"

He already knew he had fallen into a trap and recognized his attackers.

The big cyborg in front of him is called Greushka, the number one bully in the underworld. He has infinite combat power and few people dare to mess with him.

What's more, his two companions were not unknown either. They were ranked very close to each other on the bounty list.

However, when Dr. Ide saw Alita's fierce movements and beating those people without any chance of fighting back, he was at a loss again.

Who is she?
