Am I really hallucinating?

Chapter 734, Chapter Seven Hundred and Thirty-Three: The Mechanical City, Blood Cocoon

In the calm darkness, a gap suddenly appeared, its edges made of countless black squares.

Swish!

A large number of black, twisted metallic flying objects were the first to fly out of the opening, and red signal indicator lights flashed like eyes, quickly locking onto the white in the distance.

Surrounded by these flying objects, the shadow of the enormous creature slowly emerged from the opening.

As the opening widened, the giant object appeared faster and faster until it was completely revealed in the black world, finally allowing us to glimpse its full form.

This is a city, a mechanical city entirely composed of cold, unidentified black metal. Everything has a distorted yet intricate structure, exuding a chilling aura.

There is no carbon-based life in it, or rather, there is no life at all.

All they possess are endless mechanical creations.

[Transition confirmed successful; coordinate deviation within expectations.]

[Signal source detected; Mass Annihilation Command 2.0 initiated.]

[Error, error, there is an error in the number of co-location signal sources, troubleshooting is underway...]

[Signal source one: The mechanical world, confirmed to exist and intact, signs of reconstruction detected...]

[Second signal source, the White World Capital, confirmed to exist. Numerous high-energy reactions detected. Annihilation orders are being updated synchronously...]

[The third signal source is a co-existing entity of the pivot gear, confirmed to exist. Its energy response is not completely synchronized, consistent with the intelligence...]

[Signal source number four, unknown, searching...]

Zizzi——!
Suddenly, at the top of the tall triangular building in the center of the mechanical city, a crimson light shone brightly, like the eyes of a sleeping giant opening.

[Updated information: Signal source number four, Rabbi Hydwin...]

[Anomaly detected near the coordinates, Warning! Warning!]

Another rift opened in the black world, but this time it was far more violent than in the mechanical city. Fine red lines burst forth from nowhere, extending wildly to outline various contours, and finally tearing spacetime apart with force.

Boom!

A powerful shockwave emanated from the area, far more significant than the arrival of the mechanical city, as if an explosive explosion could be heard.

Gululu...

Immediately afterwards, crimson blood gushed out from the crack like a waterfall, the thick smell of blood spreading and the blood mist drifting.

A scarlet cocoon wrapped in silk threads appeared in this sea of ​​blood, like a red moon rising from the sea of ​​blood.

……

Early in the morning, the sun had only been up for a short time and hadn't brought much warmth to the ground. Although Lin Yilin had gone to bed late the night before, she still woke up with robotic precision.

She and Shang Xia squeezed into one bed last night, and Shang Xia was still sleeping in. Her sleeping posture wasn't very good, and Lin Yilin clearly remembered how many times Shang Xia kicked her last night.

Not wanting to argue with a silly child, Lin Yilin quietly left the room to wash up and change.

Zheng Fan doesn't seem to be here, nor are the three little ones. Looks like they're out playing and haven't come back yet. Didn't they get enough fun last night...? No, for Zheng Fan and the three little ones, it's probably never enough fun.

Lin Yilin didn't hesitate; the coffee machine next to her had already brewed a fine cup of coffee.

"Thank you, you've worked hard." Lin Yilin expressed her gratitude to this hidden member of the agency who had a low profile but had provided her with many conveniences and benefits.

Back then, I had some reservations about it because of the price; I wasn't mature enough then.

She touched the small gray branch that had been placed next to the coffee machine, disguised as an ordinary potted plant. Four months had passed, and it had grown two centimeters taller than when she first got it.

This size is really pathetic for a potted plant; it even needs some fake leaves to look lush. Suddenly, her phone rang; it was Teacher Niu calling.

Lin Yilin immediately answered: "Teacher Niu?"

"Two unidentified worlds have been detected heading towards Dadu! They will make contact within about half an hour at the latest, triggering a triple impact!"

"An unknown world?"

"It's not accurate to say it's an unknowable world... it's just that the data and signals we've detected make it hard to believe and we can't make a definitive judgment yet—both of these unknowable worlds are Dadu!"

Two major cities!?
Lin Yilin immediately opened her electronic resume on her computer.

Sure enough, two new pages of resume content began to appear.

[“Mechanical Capital” – The core of the machinery industry was originally called “radish”]

["Blood cocoon" (emergence stopped)——Jiang Si]

Luo Bo and Jiang Si are parallel world counterparts!
However, its scale and threat far exceeded those of the previous isolated counterparts! That's two entire capitals!

"They are parallel world counterparts of Luo Bo and Jiang Si. Those two worlds are the parallel worlds of Dadu!" Lin Yilin quickly recited the information. "One is Dadu that was directly disintegrated and then reconstructed by combining with the mechanical world! The other is Dadu that was covered and devoured by a violent world in the form of threads, turning into nourishment!"

The information provided in the resume was truly shocking.

The mechanical doll named "Carrot," protected by the heroic efforts of Grandpa and Grandson Hydwin, escaped the clutches of the Dadu Wave Army. It bided its time, sought out Carlo, the founder of Caron Intelligence, and traded Grandpa Hydwin's all-powerful doll design for Carlo's help as a doll enthusiast. After a long period of time, it completed Grandpa Hydwin's vision and iterated and upgraded itself.

However, in the process, the mechanical world was completely conquered. Carlo, unable to escape the vortex in time because of Carrot, was caught in it and died. Carrot absorbed all the mechanical doll legacies left to him by Carlo and launched a massive revenge. The omnipotent doll design placed an excessive burden on the doll's mind. Carrot pieced together fragments in fierce battles, repeatedly surviving near-death experiences, and ultimately became a killing machine.

From master of logic to its spokesperson to the master of the world, it traversed step by step, ultimately reconstructing the entire mechanical world. All things were unified, launching an endless revenge against the mainland of Dadu. Relying on the near-infinite power brought by its constructive abilities, the mechanical army relentlessly wore down Dadu. After Luo Ye, Dadu's last line of defense, mysteriously disappeared, Dadu was utterly defeated and ultimately disintegrated and reconstructed, creating the mechanical city that now exists outside of Dadu in this world!

The vengeful mechanical demon was not content with taking revenge on a single capital city. After receiving news of a parallel world and seeing the barriers between them weaken, it successfully leaped into this world.

The blood cocoon on the other side was even more straightforward and brutal.

Jiang Si, a serial killer, roamed Dadu, slaughtering his way up the city. The initial course of events was still within acceptable limits, until Dadu plotted a violent world, leading to the downfall of the Jiang family. Jiang Qiang was no match for Adam, but at the last moment, he tore a symbol from Adam and gave it to Jiang Si. After that, Jiang Si lost control.

She left the capital for a long time, actually going to another wandering world to commit murder.

In the parallel world, Jiang Si's life is nothing but endless slaughter, gradually strengthening the symbol within her and even shaking Adam's already unstable foundation, which was weakened by Jiang Qiang's powerful blow. Adam attempts to hunt down Jiang Si, but Dadu (the capital) is unwilling to expend manpower and resources to hunt down Jiang Si, who is not based in Dadu, so Adam can only go alone.

This was perhaps the biggest mistake most of that world made. Adam disappeared without a trace, and even so, most still didn't realize something was wrong, because that was just Adam's nature.

Until one day, the violent world trembled, the sky was stained with blood, and a sea of ​​blood flowed through Dadu, marking the beginning of the Dadu massacre. They had almost lost all chance to resist. Luo Ye and Jiang Si fought for decades, buying enough time for the remaining people to barely survive. Until one day, Luo Ye mysteriously disappeared, shattering the balance. Red threads released from Jiang Si instantly engulfed the entire Dadu, enveloping it in a giant blood cocoon.

……

Lin Yilin copied the resume out and also sent it to her network of contacts.

A gloomy feeling kept settling over my heart.

The worst-case scenario was that things could get this bad. And both of these worst-case scenarios share a major turning point—Luoye's disappearance.

Without Zheng Fan and Shang Xia, and facing an excessive threat, Eliadodike, due to his own schemes, crippled himself, resulting in a severe lack of resilience, leaving only Luo Ye to carry the banner.

With the fall of Luoye, the army suffered a crushing defeat.

Why did Luoye disappear?

Although there was no basis for it, Lin Yilin immediately thought of herself, and that "worst possibility" that belonged to her, Lin Yilin, was probably something she had done!
In the group chat of their social networks, Rabbi, Carrot, and Jiang Si all responded immediately.

Although they were surprised by the different developments of the isotopes after reading their data, they were also surprised that these two isotopes had undoubtedly far surpassed them in this world.

But they were not afraid; they simply carried their own feelings and prepared to go.
