At this time, Alyssa interrupted Youzhi's thoughts. Although her voice was as soft as a mosquito, it was close to her ear and she could hear it clearly.
"You're weak, and having an elf carry you is bound to cause you to be jolted. Repeated tossing and turning will only delay your recovery. No matter how you consider it, having me carry you is the most efficient option."
Especially since Alyssa's spirit has not yet reconstructed its spirit body, otherwise letting the Jade Pegasus carry her flying in the air would be a good idea.
"I-I know, it's just too much trouble for you...will it be heavy?"
"Don't worry, for me, carrying a monkey on my back is no different from carrying a pig on my back."
How can you make such an analogy? Alyssa was so angry that her teeth itched. If she hadn't been receiving the other party's favor, she would have bitten the ear so close to her.
However, even so, she had to admit that the other person's skill in carrying people was very superb. She didn't feel any bumps along the way. Although his back was not very broad, it gave her a complete sense of security, just like when she was lying on her father's back as a child.
Feeling a little shy but also extremely comfortable, Alyssa's breathing gradually became smoother, and she fell asleep on Youzhi's back.
When Ningirsu and Oram saw this scene, they smiled in a way that all men understand, and their anxious mood eased a lot.
……
"What exactly do you want to do?"
The kidnapped Eve was prepared to be tortured, but the other party didn't seem to have such an idea.
The Star Scar Mecha Knights first separated the Mecha Core from their bodies, then combined the spare components to reconstruct their bodies, restoring themselves into seven Mecha Knights. They then took the staff from Eve and placed it in the energy carrier.
When the staff absorbed enough energy, a metal body similar to a chainsaw extended from its tail, emitting an aura similar to star power.
"I didn't even know there were such changes..."
Eve murmured to herself, and she suddenly realized that she might have misunderstood something. The Machine World Knights might not be the enemies of humans.
Chapter 73: Making a Feint to the East and Stealthily Rescuing People
Under the guidance of the fairy Liz, the group traveled for five days, practicing with the mechanical monster bugs on the way, adjusting their condition to the peak, and finally arrived at the base of the Mechanical World Knights.
It was a complex of ruins of an old civilization that had been destroyed long ago. Perhaps due to the movement of the earth's crust, most of the dilapidated buildings were submerged in water, giving it a bit of the atmosphere of a post-apocalyptic wasteland.
"When I saw their village before, I thought it was a typical Western fantasy feudal era world. Now it seems that there must have been a highly advanced technological civilization before, but due to some unforeseen circumstances, the inheritance of civilization was interrupted."
Elisa was amazed. The "ruins of old civilization" mentioned by Gain Oram and others were clearly dozens of high-rise buildings, which were quietly located in the lake in a disorderly manner, and their surfaces were covered with moss and other green vegetation.
In addition, among this group of architectural ruins, there are two intact sci-fi man-made objects standing out. They are the destination of this journey, the base of the Mecha Knights, and also the star relics "Star Shield" and "Star Gun".
Among them, the star shield was clearly in an activated state, shining as the star cup that was accidentally activated by Eve before.
Liz said, "The Machine Knights cannot absorb star power, but that doesn't stop them from using it as energy."
Ningjiersu closed his eyes and sensed for a moment, then said with certainty, "Eve is in there."
You Zhi glanced at him and asked, "How did you confirm it? By smell, telepathy, or the legendary power of sister control?"
Oram asked, "What do we do next? Should we just rush in and save them?"
Elisa was ruthless. "Doing this is tantamount to committing suicide. I don't think we can defeat that combined Mecha Knight just once. He's powerful and has comprehensive abilities, and we know very little about him. We can't exploit his weaknesses."
Youzhi recalled the plug-in description he had seen before, and inferred that under certain conditions, the opponent might have the dual resistance of ignoring defense and being indestructible and not being the target of effects. Any of these characteristics would be very tricky to deal with individually, let alone when combined together.
He stroked his chin and said, "If they split into seven Mecha Knights again, it would be easier to deal with them. Our previous ignorance allowed them to merge smoothly. Now that we know this, we might as well target the merged parts during the battle and completely destroy them, leaving them with no components to merge with."
Ningjiersu said cautiously, "This is their base. There's no guarantee they won't have spare parts. They might not be useful."
"Then we'll settle for the next best thing and try to interrupt them when they're merging."
For example, throw a goblin over and let it self-destruct at close range. You Zhi doesn't believe that the opponent can successfully complete the fusion under the explosion.
Liz spun gracefully and said, "I have a suggestion. The Star Lance isn't under the control of the Mecha Knights. We can first go to the Star Lance to absorb the star power and further enhance our strength. The Mecha Knights who sense the movement will surely come out to stop us. At this time, you can work together to hold them back, while I, taking advantage of my smaller size, sneak into the Star Shield and rescue Eve."
Everyone looked at each other and thought that this tactic was very good, as it took into account the three aspects of strengthening oneself, luring the enemy, and saving people. It would be best if they could destroy the Machine World Knight after absorbing the power of the stars. Even if they were defeated, they could take the opportunity to escape after rescuing Eve, and then come back to settle the score with the opponent after becoming stronger in the future.
"I agree with this tactic," said Oram.
"I second." Ningjiersu tightened his grip on the spear, and his gaze towards Xingdun became more determined.
"Roar~" Imduk nodded vigorously.
"I have no objection." Alyssa said.
"That's fine, let's do it."
You Zhi showed an honest and kind smile, which made Alyssa couldn't help but look at him a few more times. She vaguely remembered that during their first duel, You Zhi gave her a knife with such an expression.
Eager to save people, everyone didn't waste time and took action immediately. They restrained their breath, carefully avoided the mechanical monster insects, and sneaked to the side of the star gun.
Liz chanted a spell, activated the Star Spear, and channeled the star power into the bodies of Oram and Ningirsu.
This movement immediately attracted the attention of the nearby mecha bugs, and they swarmed over like ants smelling something sweet. Youzhi and Alyssa immediately summoned elves to form the first line of defense to block the outside, while Imduk guarded the two of them to prevent any fish from slipping through the net and invading.
After many battles, the two were already familiar with the weaknesses of the Mecha Bugs. They summoned Yoshihiro Kisaragi, Magic Valkyrie, Amber Mammoth, and Jade Pegasus respectively, and used Fighting, Fire, and Ground-type moves to block them. They defended them motionlessly, like a dam washed by the tide, and harvested experience points to their heart's content.
A moment later, seven rays of light flew out from the star shield, which were the startled Mecha Knights.
"Just in time!"
After Oram and Ningirsu finished absorbing, their strength was further improved. They looked confidently at the approaching Mecha Knight. Their appearance did not change, but their levels had increased by ten levels each.
You Zhi reminded, "Follow the plan and don't let the other party complete the combination smoothly... Damn, they don't follow the rules!"
However, the seven Mecha Knights did not rush over for close combat, but directly merged halfway. Seven cores flew out and gathered together, and the Star Mark Mecha Knights descended again.
"Without losing a single drop of health, he actually entered the second form. If you can't afford to play, then don't play."
The opponent's caution made You Zhi's previous tactics fail.
Oram felt a little regretful, but he immediately pulled himself together and said, "Let's follow the original plan. We'll be responsible for holding the enemy hostage while Liz sneaks into the base to rescue them. We're different now than last time. Don't think you can defeat us so easily again!"
Ningirsu snorted, and with the same confidence and determination, the two immediately rushed towards the Star Mark Knight of the Odd Realm.
You Zhi waved towards Liz and said solemnly, "Our lives and deaths are entrusted to you."
"Don't worry, I will definitely rescue them."
Liz clenched her fists, shielded her own breath, used the building to hide her body, and flew quickly towards the star shield. Occasionally, any mecha bugs that discovered her whereabouts were knocked down by her with a casual finger, showing strength that was no less than Ningirsu.
After a while, Liz arrived at the entrance of the Star Shield. She turned her head and saw that the battlefield was full of energy and various attributes of moves were flying across the sky. Everyone was fighting with the Mecha Knights in full swing, and they even had the upper hand.
"Just help me to entangle the enemy."
Liz smiled triumphantly, turned around and dived into the star shield, feeling Eve's spiritual power rapidly advancing, and the shadow on her body became thicker and thicker.
Chapter 74 I want to see your expression now
Eve, who was imprisoned by the Machine World Knight, was not treated inhumanely, and was not even bound by bracelets or shackles. She was only restricted from moving around and could only stay in a room that restricted her spiritual power.
Oram and the others were fighting so fiercely with the Mecha Knights, and the Star Shield itself had no soundproofing function, so she could clearly hear the sounds of fighting outside. She immediately realized that it was her brother and the others who came to rescue people, and she couldn't help but feel restless and worried.
On the one hand, Eve was worried about the safety of her companions. After all, she had witnessed the strength of the Star Mark Mecha Knights with her own eyes. On the other hand, she was worried about the Mecha Knights. After five days of getting along with each other, even though she could not communicate normally, she realized that these Mecha Knights were not bad people, at least they were far from the evil rulers that everyone talked about.
After a while, she heard a familiar voice.
"Eve, are you here?"
"Liz, is that you? Great, I'm right here. Please rescue me. I want to stop this meaningless fight."
Liz followed the sound to the front of the room and discovered the existence of the barrier. She did not rush in, but observed carefully from the outside.
Eve said hurriedly, "There's a barrier here that seals spiritual energy, so I can't get out. Fortunately, I've been paying close attention these past few days. This barrier only covers the four sides horizontally. You can break through from the top or bottom. As long as you break the floor, I can leave."
"I see, but why do you want to stop the fight?"
Liz's tone was a little strange, but Eve, in her haste to leave, didn't notice. She hurriedly explained, "Our previous assumptions were wrong. The Machine Knights are probably not our enemies. They are merely acting according to the Creator's instructions to maintain the stability of the world. There may be truths hidden within them that we don't understand. Fighting them is pointless."
Liz asked doubtfully, "Where's your staff?"
"It was taken away by the Machine World Knights. That's exactly what I'm going to say next. The staff underwent a new transformation in their hands. It looks like a key, but I don't know what it unlocks."
Liz lowered her head and sighed slowly: "You even guessed all this... Forget it, I'll go get the staff later."
"Liz, what's wrong with you?"
Even if Eve was slow-witted, she realized something was wrong at this moment, especially since the other party had not taken any action.
"Nothing, I just gradually recovered my previous memories."
Liz raised her head, and the adorable smile she had when they first met was gone. Instead, there was a dark and strange expression on her face, like a ghost.
Eve was frightened and wanted to scream loudly in fear, but she found that her body could not move.
"I was originally fretting over how to catch you off guard, but I didn't expect the Machine Knights to come to my rescue, making it easy for me. I'll have to thank them later."
Liz smiled seductively, opened her arms and said, "Let's become one."
With that, she flew towards Eve's chest.
Just as the two were about to touch, a slap suddenly came and hit Liz hard, making her twisted and deformed, with half of her body collapsed, like a home run in baseball, knocking her away.
"What do you mean by fusion, you slutty goblin!"
Taking his hand back, You Zhi said with a look of contempt.
Eve instantly regained her freedom and said with lingering fear, "Thank you, Brother You Zhi."
Liz steadied herself after hitting the wall. As a spiritual creature, this palm strike did not cause her much harm. In comparison, she was more surprised as to why the other party appeared here.
"You can sneak in stealthily, and I can also sneak in by destroying all the mecha monsters that block my way. We are all the same."
You Zhi seemed to have guessed the other party's thoughts and answered in advance.
Suppressing her complaints about "how can this be called infiltration?", Liz asked solemnly, "If you wanted to go with me, just say so directly. You chose to follow me secretly, so you already suspected me?"
You Zhi smiled and said, "Your disguise can deceive good people, but it cannot deceive evil people."
"It seems you can't provide evidence to convince others, so you have no choice but to follow alone. How foolish."
Liz raised her hand, and a huge star power burst out.
Every time she activated the star relics, she would intercept a part of them and accumulate them until now. In terms of total spiritual power alone, she far surpassed Oram and Ningirsu. Even if the Knight of the Machine Realm came in front of her, she had the confidence to crush him into scrap metal with one blow.
However, the expected scene did not appear. Instead, a black shadow flashed, and the opponent rushed in front of her despite the impact of spiritual power, and slapped her hard again, knocking her out.
"Surprised or not? Unexpected or not," You Zhi laughed jokingly, "You're not the only one who knows how to keep a low profile and disguise yourself. And although your spiritual power is strong, you don't know how to use it at all."
"how so!"
Liz couldn't believe that a mere summoner had such ability. She once again activated the power of the stars, and the shadows on the ground quickly extended, rushing to You Zhi's front and back, jumping up from the ground and attacking his vital points.
You Zhi kicked the shadow to pieces, then flew out and slapped Liz with both hands, making her dizzy. Finally, she broke free by bursting her spiritual power.
"You have such powerful strength, why do you keep it hidden? What is your purpose?" Liz's tone was a little hysterical.
Even Eve couldn't help but hide behind a pillar and stay away from the two people when she saw this scene. Once she was bitten by a snake, she really didn't dare to trust others again.
"Purpose?" You Zhi thought seriously, "Probably because he wanted to see your expression right now."
"What!?"
"That's right, it's that confused expression of yours when your conspiracy is about to succeed, but it all goes to waste because of an unplanned variable. Hahaha, it really makes me feel happy~"
You Zhi laughed heartily from the bottom of his heart, filled with a sense of enlightenment, as if his soul had been sublimated, and even his ability to imitate strong and weak spirits had improved a lot.
"Are you crazy?"
Liz couldn't believe that there were such people in the world.
"Your expression of having your worldviews shattered is quite good, enough to make me want to show off five buckets of rice."
You Zhi showed an expression that Eve thought was no less strange than Liz's smile before. Although she was not frightened, she couldn't help but feel cold and shivering.
Liz was now certain that the other party was neither the spirit purifier who claimed to slay evil and maintain order in all realms, nor an evil demon who intended to destroy the world or plot to seize divine power, but a lawless chaotic element.
This kind of person doesn't care about justice or evil, he just wants to see fun.
The plan that he had been planning for many years actually failed because of this guy who had no faith.
"Unacceptable! I absolutely cannot accept this outcome. Don't think this will stop me!"
Liz's expression was distorted, and she pushed her palm upwards. The powerful spiritual power created a big hole in the ceiling, and she took the opportunity to fly in.
"This direction is... No, she's going to grab my staff!" Eve said in panic.
