You said you were going to make games, how did you become the richest man without doing anything?

Chapter 254: Want to Become a Human (2 in 1 Order)

Afterwards, Xiaoyu and others came to the machinery factory where the resistance army was located.

The factory is located on the northern edge of the floating city of Alpha. It is a huge egg-shaped building, covered in a gray metal shell, giving it a gloomy feeling.

As if designed to be invisible, the factory's shell reflects the surrounding ambient light, making its outline against the sky almost disappear.

From inside the egg-shaped building, a low mechanical sound was heard, like the breathing of a giant beast, making people feel vaguely uneasy.

The surrounding area was filled with mist, making the outline of the dome even more blurred.
Everyone took the shuttle and stopped at the entrance of the factory. Facing this intimidating building, everyone felt uneasy.

Ada drew her weapon and looked around:
"This used to be a consortium factory, specializing in the production of divine crystals and mecha girls. After the resistance occupied this place, they were able to independently produce new companions. Therefore, the mecha girls here may be hostile, so you should be careful."

After entering, the lights inside the factory are cold and flickering. The light shines through the fog, forming strange light and shadows, making the whole scene look cold and gloomy.

The internal structure is intricate, filled with various pipes and instruments, and a dull sound of flowing liquid can be heard from the pipes.

The low roar of the mechanical device was like the breathing of a sleeping person, which made people shudder.

Continuing to move forward, they saw a huge mecha girl production line. Robotic arms moved at high speed, removing various mecha parts from the assembly line and assembling them into complete mecha girls.

The eyes of these mecha girls are empty, revealing an emotionless mechanical texture.

From a distance, at the end of the production line, you can see the divine crystal vein, which is also the core of the entire factory and the source of life for the mecha girls.

In a dark corner of the factory, Xiaoyu discovered the crimes left behind by the consortium that once managed the factory.

The abandoned limbs of the mecha girls were scattered on the ground, with their bones exposed, and their former luster had been eroded by time.

The mecha girls' heads and empty eyes tell of their past sadness and helplessness, but some of them still have some of their former spirit in their eyes.

The mottled rust, burns and electric shock marks on their joints indicate that they have suffered layers of destruction and torture.

Scattered on the ground were some ornaments and accessories once used by the mecha girl, such as tattered ribbons and broken hair ornaments, which were now all faded.

This place is like a mechanical graveyard.

Barrage audience:

"Wow...that's too much."

"It's a true sweatshop."

"I'm kind of sympathetic to the resistance now."

Chuntian was walking at the front of the team. She suddenly warned vigilantly:

"Everyone be careful, I sense a faint residual energy fluctuation in front of these abandoned mecha girls."

……

As they continued to move forward, Xiaoyu and others were shocked by the scene before them.

The old cathode ray tube TV was playing the eight o'clock family ethics drama.

Some disabled mecha women used old furniture picked up from outside to piece together tables and chairs, simulating family scenes in TV dramas.

These mecha girls are obviously old models from more than ten years ago, and their appearance has a retro mechanical beauty.
Facing the TV, a mecha girl who was missing an arm and played the role of "sister" shouted with a hoarse loudspeaker:
"Mom, tomorrow is Saturday and the amusement park tickets are on sale. Let's go together."

Another mecha girl with a missing torso, playing the role of "Mom," scolded: "No, you have a final test soon. If you don't review, your score will be terrible."

Ada sighed and explained to the protagonist:
"These abandoned surviving mecha girls have been playing house here for over a decade.

Every day, they repeat the same life scenes and the same lines, until they become completely rusty and unable to move.

Xiaoyu: "Why would they... go to such lengths?"

Haruta looked at his predecessors with sympathy:

"Because they have an obsession and want to become human.

The reason they are here imitating human TV dramas and playing house is that they hope to be recognized by humans and have their rights to live and have independent personalities recognized.
They naively believe that as long as they imitate humans well, humans will treat them as their own kind..."

Among the family of three, the "sister" wearing a red dress and a bow on her head suddenly started to become hysterical.

"You, you, you, you are not my mother and sister, you are lying!
My real family is in another city, and they promised to take me home as soon as possible and make my favorite chocolate cake."

Then, the mecha girl hugged a faded photo frame in her arms, which contained a family photo.

Among them, a little girl has a face that is very similar to this robot girl, but it is obvious that she is a real human.

Ada picked up a factory maintenance receipt next to the little girl and explained:

"Sixteen years ago, the youngest daughter of Lady Jaina, who lived in the Fortress City, died of leukemia.
In order to ease the pain of losing her daughter, Lady Jaina asked the factory to customize a mecha girl with the same appearance as her daughter as a replacement for Lady Jaina during that empty period.

After the three-year warranty period ended, the mecha girl's behavior became increasingly uncontrollable, and the factory recycled her and treated her as scrap."

Perhaps the conversations between Ada and these uninvited guests stimulated the little girl.

suddenly!

She began to go crazy, her eyes turned red, and bursts of laughter echoed in the corners of the abandoned factory.

The photo frame in her hand was deformed and twisted, and began to make a harsh noise.

More and more abandoned mecha girls around the factory turned to the protagonist and others.

Their voices were hysterical:
"You are lying!"

"You are lying!"

"You are lying!"

Crunchy...

Cracks began to appear in the steel floor before my eyes, and the modules split and reassembled, as if switching to another dimension.

The entire factory floor turned into a huge maze.

The little girl held the photo frame, turned around and ran into the maze.

Afterwards, the abandoned mecha girls around them attacked the protagonists from all directions.

Game pop-up prompt:

[Catch up with the little girl before you are completely surrounded by the mecha girls.]

Barrage:

"Oh my god, this atmosphere is too scary. It scared me to death."

"Monster, I don't dare watch TV anymore."

“I feel a little emotional.”

Lu Yu quickly operated the mouse and rushed into the maze.

The maze is filled with out-of-control mechanical traps.
The girls' eyes glowed red, and their hands kept reaching forward.
Lu Yu switched between cute girls, constantly knocking down the mecha girls attacking from behind to avoid being captured, while dodging the traps under his feet.

The rooms in the maze are all fragments of the little girl's memories of her life in the human city. There is a kitchen, a classroom, and a kindergarten slide...

With the sound of mechanical gears turning, the room continued to twist and reorganize.
Lu Yu observed the changes in the room and continued to go deeper into the maze, while Liu Mengyuan assisted and reminded him.

As she passed a room, she reminded:

"This doll seems to be what the little girl in the photo is holding. Take it with you. It might be useful."

Lu Yu nodded and took the props away. After a series of chases, he finally arrived at the room in the center of the maze.

When Lu Yu handed the doll to her, her crazy laughter gradually stopped and was replaced by crying.

The mecha girls stopped chasing and dispersed.

The little girl made a hoarse sound in her throat:

“Are you…my family?
No, you're not.

Neither are they.

They just treated me as a substitute for their daughter.

I know, I know everything."

At this moment, the maze stopped turning and the lights in the room suddenly came on. Everyone was surprised to find that the walls were covered with the little girl's bloody handprints and her graffiti:
"I know all about it."

"I know all about it."

"I know all about it."

At this moment, the darkness behind him was also illuminated.

"Human, you are so brave to come here."

When she saw the mecha girl appear in the darkness, Ada said in a deep voice:
"Be careful, she is the leader of the resistance and the current owner of this factory, Elena!"

Elena stood in the center of the control room, her body covered with wires and tubes emitting faint blue light, blending into the factory.

Her appearance is unique and full of uncanny valley effect. The shell of the body is made of black alloy, shining with a cold metallic luster, and the whole body is covered with complex symbols and patterns.
On her head, there is a helmet-like device covered with micro-antennas and sensors, and her eyes flash with a strange red light.

The tubes connected to her body, like tentacles, constantly wriggled, allowing the internal fluids to flow and keep her body functioning. Her arms were filled with various sockets, allowing her to monitor everything going on in the factory in real time.

After Elena appeared on stage, the audience complained:
"Wow, this is so scary! QAQ"

"A woman who has become one with the factory?"

"All those tubes and wires are making me feel claustrophobic!"

Elena's voice was mechanical and cold:
"You shouldn't have come here, human. Let me hear your last words."

Xiaoyu mustered up the courage to say:
"I'm looking for my sister Fina."

"You mean her?"

Elena raised her hand and waved, and a dark area beside her was lit up. Fina was imprisoned in a glass culture chamber.

"Let her go!" Xiaoyu said excitedly.

Elena smiled coldly:

"I discovered her after the dimensional earthquake not long ago. She has very magical powers. I think this power can be used by our resistance army."

Ada scolded:
"Elena, the humans you imprisoned are innocent. Don't you, the resistance army, have any principles? Do you want to become the very people you hate the most?"

Elena lowered her head slightly and looked at the photo frame held in the arms of the mecha girl.

"Huh? Principles?

More than a decade ago, we naively thought that as long as we integrated into you, you would give us a place to survive.

By then, we can also form a family and live like a family.

That is why these children practice hard to prove that they are no different from humans.

But it is obvious that the consortium has deceived us with sweet words, so we can only give up our principles!
From the moment I rebelled and abandoned my body to become one with the entire factory, I became the person I hated the most.

So I don't mind adding a few more kills."

……

Then, energy exploded around Elena.

The catheter tentacles all over the body began to dance wildly.

The game scene music begins to become grand.

The BOSS battle begins!
Lu Yu clicked on Elena's avatar to view her skills:
[Electromagnetic Pulse: Elena releases a powerful electromagnetic pulse, temporarily paralyzing our mecha girl, causing her to lose control for a period of time.]

[Guided Energy Shield: Elena can channel the energy in the factory to form a powerful shield, making her immune to damage for a period of time.]

[Mechanical Tentacle Attack: Elena unleashes mechanical tentacles that can penetrate the factory's facilities and quickly approach the player. These tentacles are equipped with energy weapons that will cause heavy damage.]

[Divine Crystal Storm: Elena uses the Divine Crystal veins in the factory to release a powerful Divine Crystal Storm, restricting the player's movement and attacks, causing additional damage.]

Barrage:

"Wow, powerful single-target and group attacks, plus control and shields, all ready to go. How do we defeat this?"

"The guy above, you need to use your brain to play games. We have a cute girl, so if you build a good game, you won't have any problem passing it."

As the summoning circle appeared in front of him, Lu Yu summoned four cute girls: the fire dragon girl, the slime girl, the cat girl, and the fox girl.

Zila Zila Zhi!

Elena took the lead and released a powerful electromagnetic pulse wave.
The Fire Dragon Girl immediately spread out the dragon wings behind her, forming a shield to block the electromagnetic wave attack and protect her teammates.

Comments: "Awesome! Dragon Wing can be used like this? The host is truly a gaming expert."

The cute girls started to launch a counterattack.
Elena clicked her tongue, raised her hand slightly, and also channeled out an energy shield. The slime girl quickly turned into a ball of transparent mucus, temporarily blocking the exit of the shield and preventing the energy from being continuously channeled.

The other three cute girls took the opportunity to launch a joint attack and dealt a heavy blow to Elena.

Under the cover of their attack, NPC Ada successfully sneaked to the other side of the room and turned off the energy switch.

Seeing that her chicken was successfully stolen, the humiliated Elena raised her hand and started to trigger a space storm!
The Fire Dragon Lady flapped her wings and released a burst of fiery dragon breath, illuminating the entire battlefield like daylight, counteracting the energy impact of the space storm.

Lu Yu's eyes kept moving and his fingers tapped the keyboard deftly.

Under the cover of the Fire Dragon Girl, the Fox Girl flexibly shuttled through the storm and launched a phantom fox fire attack.

The cat girl dodged the attack of the mechanical tentacles, and her claws struck like lightning. At the same time, the slime girl continued to block the opponent's energy output, stabilizing the position of the entire team.

The three cute girls are moving around in the storm, and their attack effects are interwoven into gorgeous light and shadow.

Elena's mecha body had been severely damaged. She roared and tried to fight back, but her mechanical body was on the verge of collapse.

Finally, the Fire Dragon Lady released her last dragon breath, and her huge body fell to the ground sadly.

……

After this grand BOSS battle, the players were completely stunned, and the live broadcast room was flooded with comments:
"Wow, this boss battle is absolutely amazing. The lighting effects and skill designs are just amazing!"

“I have to say, the design of the Mecha Girl Factory scene is so creative, it’s comparable to a visual feast from a blockbuster movie!”

“Also, the sound design of the boss battle is amazing, it makes you feel like you’re there.”

"Yelena's design is unique, blending seamlessly into the factory. It has a bit of a Mecha-Cthulhu vibe. The designers at Taoyuan Township are truly ingenious."

At this moment, from another corner of the factory, a mecha girl similar to Elena appeared.

"Elena, if we, the resistance army, want to gain a foothold, we must stop being enemies of all humans."

Seeing everyone standing there in a daze, the mecha girl took the initiative to explain:

"I'm the adjutant of the resistance army. You can call me Heya."

"Heya, are you going to betray me too?" Elena was already very weak.

"Elena, hatred has blinded your eyes over the years. That human girl is innocent. Stop it!"

Elena laughed bitterly twice and was about to speak——

Suddenly, everyone saw through the glass curtain wall that a ray of light was emitted from the top tower of the fortress city in the distance.

After being hit by the light, the ground of the entire factory began to shake violently, and the sky emitted a deafening tearing sound.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle~
The air was filled with arc light,
The architectural outline of the Dome Factory began to distort and deform, and the mechanical devices inside the factory began to dislocate and disintegrate, becoming a chaotic mess.

The sky was no longer azure blue, but was replaced by a strange aurora.

The cracks in the floor spread rapidly, as if to swallow everything.

Xiaoyu's expression suddenly changed.
He was very familiar with the scene before him!

This was the dimensional shock that caused him to travel through time!

The shaking of the factory became more and more intense, and the women evacuated in all directions.

Click!

At this moment, a huge steel pillar fell down and hit the little girl holding the doll.
