Chapter 246 City of Machines
Shang Jianyao briefly recounted his experience on that island, and finally concluded:
"There are no difficulties, there are no monsters, maybe they are hiding and discussing how to surrender decently."
Jiang Baimian ignored Shang Jianyao's last half of the sentence, and said to himself while thinking about it:
"It's really weird.
"What kind of psychological shadow is it a mapping?"
Saying that, she looked back at Shang Jianyao and made a suggestion:
"Try it a few more times and see what changes."
This is also a way to do it, in the case of insufficient prerequisites, you can only rely on trying to collect intelligence.
Long Yuehong, who was next to Shang Jianyao, smiled when he heard this:
"That 'island' looks like it's used for rest and vacation."
"Probably not, every 'island' in the 'Sea of Origin' must have its meaning." After Jiang Baimian's eyes moved to Long Yuehong, he laughed, "If it were you, then I can guess what kind of psychology this 'island' corresponds to and judge what will happen in the future."
"What is it?" Shang Jianyao was curious.
Long Yuehong tried to stop it, but failed, Jiang Baimian said with a smile:
"It is Xiaohong's fear that her will will will be corroded and disintegrated.
"Think about it, the sunny island, the warm sea breeze, the spacious and exquisite houses, all kinds of ingredients, the supplies that are not lacking in anything, a beautiful wife, all relatives and friends, frequent outsiders, all of this will definitely make Xiaohong forget her ambitions and wear away his will to work hard."
All of these are there, why are you still working hard? Isn't this the purpose of my struggle? Long Yuehong didn't dare to say what was in her heart.
"He may think this is the gift of the year." Shang Jianyao said helpfully.
This time, Long Yuehong did not refute him, but simply corrected a mistake in a low voice:
"Heaven."
He doesn't believe in any elder, of course it is a gift from God.
Jiang Baimian accepted it when he saw it, did not continue the topic, and said to Shang Jianyao thoughtfully:
"Is that island really corroding your will?"
"I just feel bored." Shang Jianyao replied truthfully.
Seeing that this matter would not be discussed for a while, Jiang Baimian picked up the walkie-talkie, pressed the button, and said to the car behind him:
"Did you hear the reminder of the relic hunter just now?"
Although she wasn't sure if it was a team of relic hunters, in the wilderness, everyone she met could be temporarily called "relic hunters".
Jorgensen took the spare walkie-talkie that Bai Chen threw to him when he set off, and replied earnestly:
"I heard it.
"However, don't worry, it's very close to Tarnan over there, and once the people of 'Mechanical Heaven' receive the news, they will send intelligent robot guards to clear it. They are not afraid of the 'higher mindlessness'."
I shouldn't be afraid of the awakened either...... Jiang Baimian muttered silently and asked directly:
"How long will this take?"
"I don't know, it depends on when Tarnan receives the news." Jorgensen replied honestly.
Jiang Baimian pondered for a moment:
"Is there any other way around that area?"
"Yes, it takes an extra half a day, the road is also very bad, and trucks and the like can't go at all, but we have two cars now, so there should be no problem." Jorgensen tried his best to play the role of his "guide".
He didn't want to be tied behind his back before getting into the car like a few of his companions.
When waiting for the car behind her to overtake, Long Yuehong couldn't help but be a little worried:
What if the "higher mindless person" changes places and happens to be stuck on the new road?
This is not a real beast, it will have a fixed activity area, and even if it is a beast, it may "move" when it encounters stimulation.
Long Yuehong didn't raise this question, he was afraid that it would be effective as soon as he said it.
At that time, Shang Jianyao will definitely "sigh" gloating again:
"Hey, this is the power of a bad name."
…………
It may be because Long Yuehong held back that problem, but there were no accidents on the road after the "old tune team", but because the road was broken, the car drove very slowly, and there were obstacles to clean up from time to time, wasting a lot of time.
In the evening, after crossing an old stone bridge, Jorgensen reported over the intercom:
"Drive south for half an hour, and you can reach Tarnan."
So smooth? Long Yuehong couldn't believe it.
He was anxious, and the next development was calm: after it was almost dark, the "Old Tune Team" and their "Servant Army" arrived in Tarnan.
It was a small city across a river, with not many towering buildings, and the roads were gray, neat, and intact.
"Lady Luck blesses." Jiang Baimian can finally say this.
"Wrong." Shang Jianyao retorted, "It's the blessing of lucky Xiaohong."
"How did he bless you?" Jiang Baimian replied.
Shang Jianyao, who was driving, smiled and said:
"He didn't speak."
Are you two enough...... Long Yuehong shouted weakly in her heart.
Fortunately, as the vehicle entered Tarnan, Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao's attention was focused on this small city dominated by intelligent robots.
On both sides of the clean and tidy cement avenue are street lights, and under the black night, they are emitting bright light, like stars reflected on the ground.
Further out of the sidewalk, there is a building with not too many floors, and at a glance, the tallest building is only fifteen or sixteen floors.
These buildings form a semi-enclosed courtyard, and although the exterior walls are old, they are very clean, and no plants grow out of the gaps.
This reminded Long Yuehong, Bai Chen and the others of the ruins of Swamp No. 1.
After the lights were lit there, it was vaguely like this, but it was larger and looked more shocking.
At this time, a slightly complex red truck turned from the intersection and stopped next to an extinguished street light.
In the next second, the small truck underwent a strange change.
It first slowly supports itself, then stretches out the parts and reorganizes certain places.
After about thirty or forty seconds, it slowly turned into a robot five or six meters high.
Then, it moved slowly but unusually steadily to remove the broken street lamp and repair the circuit.
When the four members of the old tune team in the jeep saw this scene, they all opened their mouths halfway and did not come back to their senses for a long time.
The only difference between them is that there are certain differences in their emotions:
Shang Jianyao was excited, curious and excited, Jiang Baimian was surprised, excited and longing, Bai Chen was stunned, shocked and puzzled, and Long Yuehong was shocked, dazed and surprised.
Seeing that the car behind him slowed down, Jorgensen picked up the walkie-talkie and said:
"Don't worry, this is Tarnan's repair robot, bulky, inflexible, and not good at fighting."
"But it can turn into a car!" Shang Jianyao's voice came through Jiang Baimian's walkie-talkie.
That's enough!
Jiang Baimian withdrew his gaze, exhaled and said:
"Take us to Mayor Gnawa first."
"Okay." Jorgensen tried to introduce in detail, "This is Hexi, the area where the robots of the 'Mechanical Paradise' are active...... After crossing the bridge, we arrived at Hedong, which is a place specially reserved for humans...... The mayor's house in Ghnava is by the bridge on the west side of the river......"
As he spoke, he instructed the robbers driving to their destination.
——After obtaining the consent of Jiang Baimian and the others, he released a companion he could deal with and took turns driving with him.
The city is not big, and in less than ten minutes, the "old tune team" arrived at a relatively new-looking bridge.
On the right side of the bridge, in the area near the river, stand single-family buildings, all of which are hidden by trees, and some of them are covered with green lawns in winter.
"That white building is." Jorgensen asked his companion to park the car and open the door to make an introduction.
With the light of the roadside lights, Jiang Baimian, Shang Jianyao and the others barely saw clearly the area where intelligent robots lived, and also saw a group of people walking towards this side from the bridgehead.
Pannania, the leader of the "Mountain Fox" bandits, took his horn helmet and said to his subordinates:
"It's better to go directly to Chief Gnawa, our losses this time are too fucking heavy, if we don't sell the materials as soon as possible, we don't know how to survive the winter!
"Those profiteers, looking at us, will definitely lower the price, or these robots are fair, although they won't give too much, but there will definitely be a lot."
As they spoke, they turned into the riverside road and prepared to walk towards the residence of the robot town mayor Gnava.
At this time, under the light of the road lights, they saw several familiar figures.
This includes the companions they gave up before, and the group of people who caused heavy losses to their team!
Although they did not encounter Shang Jianyao at the time, and they could not see Long Yuehong's appearance clearly through the helmet of the exoskeleton device, the beauty carrying a single bazooka on her shoulder still left a deep impression on them:
On one side is blood and fire, and on the other hand, it is picturesque.
With a buzz, the alarm bell rang in their minds, and without thinking, they took out their weapons and put on a defensive posture.
Jiang Baimian, who found them coming in advance, quickly swept it and said to himself:
"Fourteen ......"
She immediately said to Shang Jianyao:
"In front of you, behind us."
It means that you are in charge of the first nine, and Xiaobai and Xiaohong suppress the next five.
It's simple.
When the atmosphere instantly became one-sided, Jorgensen and the others trembled a little, not knowing whether to follow the orders that the current "master" was about to issue and fight against the boss, or to take the opportunity to turn against the water and get rid of the shackles, or, leave nothing else for now, don't pestle between the two sides - this will be shot to death.
In the next second, next to a street lamp, a black surveillance camera emitted an electronic synthesizer sound:
"Private fights are prohibited in Tarnan, please put away your weapons immediately, and violators will bear the consequences."
Hearing this, Panania and the other robbers breathed a sigh of relief at the same time:
Fortunately, it was in Tharnan.
As soon as they flashed such a thought, they saw Shang Jianyao rushing under the street lamp, raising his head and urging excitedly:
"Say more, say more!"
The talking surveillance camera was silent, as if he had never encountered such a request, and there was no corresponding content in the database.
