Planet of Sand and Oasis of Iron

Chapter 95 94. The relationship is not harmonious (even nine points)

No, the question now is not whether humanity is peaceful.

Rather, this is a vision! Everything in the vision, even the rules, are different from reality, and there's a high probability that they're fake.

How could he pronounce his own name? Fortunately, both sides used binary language, which Laika in the communication could not understand at all.

"This facility is used to replenish lost human units, maintain the number of human units on Doomsday Train, and back up recorded content."

"Observer, your inclination to terminate this plan is extremely high. Please answer: Do you want to terminate it?"

Cypher has a sense of unrealistic absurdity.

After trying my best to defeat so many things, the other party finally said that this was actually the plan they left behind - and the specific plan was surprisingly positive.

So, isn't it a bit... to cause so much damage?

He thought for a few seconds and suddenly asked, "If I say I won't terminate it, will you maintain the status quo?"

There was no response.

"If I say terminate, are you sure you will stop this plan?"

There was no response.

Cypher recalled the drone that had circled back and dared not move forward, as well as the 'mediation system' that was trying to delay time, and he threw a punch without hesitation!
The power contained in the body of the machine is incomparable. At the moment of swinging a punch, the combat system will autonomously adjust the output and generate the power accumulated in the bow stance and punch from the ground.

Each joint is locked in turn, concentrating all the strength on the arm. Theoretically, the impact force should be able to punch through the front armor plate of the Merkava MK4 with one punch.

The sound of "boom" spread to the energy shield that could barely block the detonation of a tactical nuclear bomb. It flowed like water waves and did not break through.

"All human records have been saved, and the reloading process has begun. Observer, the project cannot and will not be terminated."

“Your contributions will not be deleted and may not be altered.”

As the sound ended, everything around began to move.

A little cooling air gushed out from Cypher's body. He retracted his fist and said in a low voice, "Are you really just a self-regulatory program?"

"Deny it. I am an intelligent unit that is constantly iterating for survival. Observer, you are able to return. The efficiency of all calculation elements has improved, but unfortunately, you did not bring back the important components to continue to promote the plan."

So you're going to attack me?
Without hesitation, Cypher chose to overload the power system of this body in the UI.

The losses in the fixed visions are all fake, which greatly reduces the crisis of the visions - so no matter how excessive it is, it is not excessive.

But Leica, the communicator, didn't think so. She only saw the energy readings jumping wildly in front of her: "Red Crossbow! What are you doing?!"

"Don't be nervous. Don't be nervous about what happens next. Didn't I tell you before that I have many lives?"

There was even time for a joke. As Cypher dropped a large number of drones around him, he smiled with interest, "And this is just in the vision. Even if you die accidentally, the most you'll get is kicked out."

"Are you so nervous because you're afraid I'll really die, Laika? You're not really in love with me, are you?"

"...You're really not nervous at all, can you tease me like that?"

Perhaps, but Steel's body lacked the various hormones to guide it and was clearly declining.

The energy reading reached its peak. Cypher looked down at himself, who was emitting a crimson glow, and sighed before the overload detonated:

“Believe in yourself and you will become the light.”

There was a loud bang.

The explosion actually had no effect on this level of protection, and Seifer had no intention of affecting it - the reason he did this was so he could return to the car immediately instead of arguing here.

In the spare body mounting bay, spare body No. 2 opened its eyes, and the moment Cypher walked out of it, he was hit by a laser.

Before the brain could figure out what was happening, the body sprang into action, and with well-trained and smooth movements, it dismantled all the mechanical monsters that had invaded the main control cabin into scrap metal.

After doing all this, Seifer turned his head and looked at Shengnai who was sitting on a chair in the corner of the main control cabin.

She blinked and said belatedly, "You came at the perfect time. I was almost burned to death by these monsters just now."

But you don't seem to have attracted any monsters at all, and you've been sitting here for a long time. "...Where are the others?"

"I'm sorry, I completely failed in my duty as a battlefield first aid worker... Your crew was invaded by a large number of machines during the battle..."

Shengnai looked very depressed, and her slender fingers kept twisting, revealing her inner anxiety.

She was indeed blaming herself for her own inability to do anything.

The vehicle was temporarily stopped in a passage, and the sounds of small units could be heard everywhere in the vehicle.

"My car is different, so don't worry—how's everything around here, Leica?"

As a communicator, Laika's psychological qualities are very strong: "In front of this passage is the upper level of the 'hive' you named. There are many machines assembling the doomsday train inside."

"Assemble locally, then deliver to the ground and allow the train to run. This is what this giant factory should be used for."

"So just approach the train and let it take you back to the surface... This factory is no match for us."

The obstacles during this period were quite significant - had the super-cognitive performance just now finally caused Leica's understanding of the mercenaries' combat effectiveness to deviate?

Asking her to stay alert, Sefer connected the vehicle and got it running again after it had stopped due to the sudden death of the occupants... The noise in the car immediately became so noisy that it gave Sefer a headache.

There were so many intruding things that Sefer was worried about whether he could drive the car out safely.

So more manpower is needed.

"Shengnai."

"Yeah, I'm here!"

"I'm going to use some unconventional methods. Can I ask you to... keep it a secret? Even if it's just a verbal request."

"Keep it a secret... Um, I won't tell anyone about Cypher's secret."

In this cold world, Shengnai, who for some reason seems to believe in himself unconditionally, can be said to be an angel.

Seifer clicked confirm on the UI, and the hatch under the resurrection array suddenly shone brightly. When the hatch opened, the faint blue light illuminated the entire hall with mottled clarity.

Then Lin Shenxue and Tien were spit out like clothes from a washing machine.

He even rolled a few times and suddenly opened his eyes during the collision.

"Ah...what's going on? Have we come out of the vision?"

Tien probably hasn't figured out the current situation yet.

It was Lin Shenxue who reacted. She sighed deeply, put the tablet in her pocket, and looked around for a usable weapon... until Cypher threw her an energy weapon from I/O Enterprises.

"I'll explain the details to you later. In order to escape this place, we're going to have to do something drastic."

Now that they were back, Tien didn't need to clean out the monsters in the car. She continued to drive the car, while Lin Shenxue and Sefer went to deal with the monsters in the power room.

As for Dr. Mei... there was no sound from that end, so he must have been killed by the monster.

The vehicle started immediately, and Seifer went out to clean up the monsters with Lin Shenxue, who looked reluctant but agreed because he didn't object.

The defensive forces in the passage continued to emerge, but the main gun of the vehicle had been sealed, and the entire vehicle was a heavily armored assault vehicle.

When the car body broke through the partition door and rushed into the platform where various parts and people were being assembled and put into the train, there were only piles of non-recyclable metal waste in the passage at the rear.

Nothing can stop a mobile outpost that just needs to move forward.

The alarm sounded silent, perhaps because the train's program was more advanced, perhaps the other side was going to replace it with a more advanced unit to launch an attack, or perhaps it felt like the crisis was about to be resolved?
Cypher was optimistic until a sphere flew out and floated in the air.
