Great, I'm surrounded by villains.

Chapter 261 Miracle and You
Owl picked up the camera again, held his breath, and recorded the incredible scene before him.

The completely transformed infected people rushed forward until they seemed to have stepped over an invisible barrier. The next moment, the mechanical parts of their bodies were rapidly degenerating, turning back into their former flesh and blood at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The rushing movement stopped, and the fierce expressions on their faces turned into confusion and puzzlement.

They fell to the ground, looking at their hands that had recovered as before, and the patients next to them. They vaguely remembered that they had been robbed of their consciousness by the flesh and blood curse and turned into monsters driven by machines.

but……

The curse of flesh and blood clearly has no possibility of being cured!
Owl looked at his arm that had been scratched by the townspeople. Like everyone else, the machinery had been transformed back into flesh and blood, allowing him to feel the touch of the camera more clearly.

The texture was hard and the surface was warm because his palms were sweating.

He also saw a familiar figure.

The man who was regarded as "the most dangerous man in the universe" turned and walked towards the door after seeing the people who had regained their flesh and blood.

He did not seem to intend to explain to the confused and stunned people on the ground, to announce to people that he had just saved them and bestowed the miracle equally on everyone.

Owl was sure that he had heard correctly that Duan Mingyuan used a power called "barrier".

He caught up with Duan Mingyuan and found that the isolation door that was originally sealed had a gap that was big enough for one person to pass through.

"Mr. Duan Mingyuan!"

The owl chased after him, but when the camera was pointed at Duan Mingyuan, only a snowflake remained on the screen.

He had no time to analyze what kind of power this sudden electromagnetic interference came from. The man who stopped in front of him suddenly gave Owl an idea - it seemed that as long as the other party was willing, he could achieve any incredible miracle.

"You just left like that?"

"if not?"

"You should tell them you just saved them all and what a miracle it was!"

Owl said excitedly that he had stayed in the quarantine area for a whole night and learned that the curse of flesh and blood was a desperate plague. People who suffered from this disease would eventually complete the transformation. This long process would devastate the human mind more than any disaster.

There is no possibility of recovery. As time goes by, the body will turn into a machine bit by bit until the mind is also occupied by despair.

The seriously ill patients behind the door are the first group to be abandoned.

As a journalist, Owl knew very well that if anyone else accomplished the feat just now, they would spare no effort to publicize it and let their fame spread throughout the universe, which would bring him countless supporters. Even with proper publicity, the "big devil" could become the "savior."

In fact, most people don’t know Duan Mingyuan, and don’t know much about this person’s background. They can only piece together a vague silhouette from the fragmented information they search on the Internet.

But this is the universe today.

In this era, if you do three points, you have to say ten points.

Owl never thought that the last person to appear in the intensive care unit would be Duan Mingyuan, or even if he really brought a miracle, it was out of strong political intentions.

“This is not my own achievement.”

Duan Mingyuan said.

The prerequisite for converting humans and machines into each other is that he has sufficient understanding of both sides. For this reason, he stayed in the Mechanical Throne for the entire afternoon, learning about the curse of flesh and blood, mechanical energy, and everything on this planet.

"that is it?"

Even though the camera in his hand was experiencing strong electromagnetic interference, Owl still pointed the lens at Duan Mingyuan out of professional habit. Every word they said at this moment was crucial and would cause strong repercussions in the universe in the future.

Maybe Duan Mingyuan didn't even know what he had done.

This is a great opportunity to transform from a "big devil" to a "savior"!

After experiencing the curse of flesh and blood, Owl changed his strategy. He has found more explosive news - what could be a more wonderful reversal in this day and age than from a devil to a savior?

As for the instructions given by the editor-in-chief of the newspaper, he had long forgotten them.

Owl decided to believe his own eyes. He was witnessing some unprecedented historical process, and he was sure that he was right in the middle of this wave.

"that is it."

Duan Mingyuan's tone remained calm. He didn't understand why the owl became so excited.

"No, it can't be like this!" The owl raised his voice and said, "If you need to say something to the people of the Mechanical Planet and the universe right now, what would you say? This is very important, and it concerns more than just you."

He prayed in his heart, praying that Duan Mingyuan would not enter the state of Master of Nonsense again.

Duan Mingyuan was thoughtful, and then suddenly thought of something.

In the royal court, he learned the story of the previous chief physician, realized that Linglong had been fighting against the curse of flesh and blood all her life, and seemed to understand the meaning of her words when she was pushed to the execution ground.

Even though Linglong still couldn't find a way to break the flesh and blood curse at the last moment of her life, everything she did was not meaningless.

39 years later, all her research results brought many inspirations to a visitor from afar.

Therefore, Duan Mingyuan did not think that all the merits would be attributed to him. He stood on the shoulders of giants and took another step forward.

Thinking of this, he said, "The great secret treasure really exists."

It’s just that everyone’s definition of the great secret treasure is different.

The first master craftsman of the mechanical planet gave the mechanical energy as a gift to the people of this planet, along with a lame rap song that placed his hopes on it. The first master craftsman seemed to think that "decryption" was the nature of the mechanical planet people and the essence of the mechanical energy, so he wanted to leave an interesting puzzle for future craftsmen. However, the queen believed that the master craftsman's legacy contained the key to solving all difficulties, and only in this way could it be worthy of the value of a "great secret treasure".

Duan Mingyuan believes that the great secret treasure is the various research results left by Linglong, as well as the girl who was given the same name as her and drifted to the Blue Star.

Without this treasure, even he would not be able to bring any changes to this planet that is about to become a "cocoon".

However, the miracle has not yet truly arrived on the planet Jiqi, and now is far from the time to pop open the champagne.

Duan Mingyuan used his real name to boycott the practice of opening champagne at halftime. History has proven countless times that this will only bring misfortune.

There were other things waiting for him to do.

——Transforming critically ill patients is only a temporary emergency measure, and the process of the Mechanical Star becoming a cocoon is still continuing.

As long as the mechanical energy continues to expand without limit, all living things on this planet will eventually fall into the curse of flesh and blood again.

So he returned to the King's Court.

There is the legacy left by the Queen. She used the "Golden Hourglass" to cover the entire surface of the planet with mechanical energy, and used the "Mirage" to hide the royal court. There is also a mechanism that allows him to observe the outside world even when he is in the "Mirage".

Owl followed Duan Mingyuan's footsteps, and the reporter's intuition told him that more would happen tonight.

Duan Mingyuan did not stop him. He focused all his attention on the mechanical energy itself.

If you want to change the current situation of the Mechanical Star, you need to fundamentally change the Mechanical energy, which will require all the Queen's research results.

By injecting elements of life energy into mechanical energy, a new energy will be constructed.

The entire journey was speechless.

The owl also followed Duan Mingyuan silently.

The end of the journey was the king's court's observatory, where Jiu Yue and Ling Long had been waiting for a long time.

The moment he stepped into the observatory, Owl was shocked by the scene inside. When he walked to the middle of the observatory, he seemed to be able to see the entire planet.

The walls, the top of his head, and the ground were all scenes of the Mechanical Planet. The entire planet became very small here, and he was at the center of the planet, witnessing its "cocooning" process with his own eyes.

The mechanized surface is spreading visibly, like an unstoppable wave that will eventually submerge everything on the planet.

Jiu Yue acted as a temporary interpreter. "Before the Queen's consciousness became confused, she often came here to observe the movements of the Mechanical Planet. Thanks to Linglong, she cracked the mechanism outside the observatory and made it work again."

Linglong was in a somewhat sluggish state.

She was in a state of high tension for the entire afternoon.

She tried her best to crack one mechanism after another, and when night fell, she was finally able to take a break.

The owl glanced at Duan Mingyuan's back again. The latter was looking up at the changing light and shadows above his head. There seemed to be a small town there.

The "cocooning" wave has submerged the town, leaving only the completely transformed residents of the Mechanical Planet.

The next moment, the owl's eyes widened.

He saw blue.

The proportion of blue increases, outlining the rivers on the yellow background. When several blue lines converge together, it forms the ocean.

Then came green, replacing the dry sand and spreading in all directions like blooming vegetation.

Then, more and more colors appeared on the board.

Mountains, rivers, blue sea and blue sky.

This khaki-colored drawing board is also filled with the breath of life and becomes vibrant.

Finally, a rain fell.

Owl still remembers that the residents of the town said that it had not rained on the planet of Mechanical for a long time. Ever since the Queen used the "Golden Hourglass", the planet seemed to be dead.

Then, he seemed to hear a faint roar.

The roar came with the wind, full of anger. The owl looked around but saw nothing.

He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that an invisible existence was staring at them with a resentful voice, questioning Duan Mingyuan again and again.

"Why, why are you helping them?"

This resentment invaded Owl's consciousness, inciting his emotions, as if wanting him to hate Duan Mingyuan as well.

Then, the intense anger and the roar echoing in the ears came to an abrupt end and disappeared along with the evening breeze.

Duan Mingyuan still looked up at the scroll above his head.

He saw the invisible existence again. In the scroll, there seemed to be a pair of eyes looking at him.

He exhaled and said, "Because, I am them."
