Chapter 557 Exploitation
The alloy deformed, and the inward-bent bow arm made a creaking sound. The entire streamlined machine was pressed against Lu Meng's shoulder like a rifle.

Fire shot out from the sky, shining in the night sky.

Zero Two rushed into the flames. Most of the receptors in his body exceeded the limit of high temperature tolerance and stopped working, but the key motion bearings and the programs set in the chip continued to run.

This is the mechanical body.

This allowed him to withstand the skyfire and escape from enemy pursuit and the attack range of most long-range weapons at an extremely fast speed.

But at this moment, Ling Er was not proud of his steel structure at all.

Instead, he felt even more tragic because of the burning of the embedded flesh and skin on his body.

As the scholar's No. 2 experiment and one of the first skeletons to undergo the human transformation ritual, Zero Two's starting point was already higher than that of the others.

When he was dug out.

Born to be adapted to flesh and blood.

Its affinity with human skin is also the best.

But now, all the efforts have been wasted.

Ling Er silently recited the chapter "Humans' Walking and Running" from "The Bible of the Skeleton Tribe's Transformation into Humans", hoping to seize every minute to make up for the lessons he missed this time...

"Left foot first..."

Suddenly, there was a heavy blow, and the skeleton who had shed his human skin suddenly lost his balance.

It all depends on the gyroscope built into the body.

Only then did I gain a foothold.

"This..." Ling Er turned back in surprise.

This time, an arrow hit his head right in the head, and the camera hole covered by the chip suddenly shattered into a network of cracks - the entire human figure of the skeleton was knocked to the ground.

But he saw it too.

The one holding the bow and crossbow was the "brother" who had just got there first!
The distance between them was enough to block most ranged weapons, except for the Old World Crossbow and the Eagle Crossbow.

more specifically.

Even if it was a crossbow from the Old World, it would have been a bit of a stretch - but with this world's top craftsmanship and Lu Meng's operation, the pure steel arrow still penetrated the laser net under the Skyfire Step and hit the fleeing human figure.

Under instant high temperature.

Even the arrows have some softening.

Normally, it might not even be able to penetrate leather armor, let alone the steel body of a skeleton - but even if it cannot penetrate, the kinetic energy granted by the mechanism still exists!

"What are you doing!" Ling Er climbed up and roared.

can respond to him.

Two more arrows followed by another laser beam that shot straight towards us.

His body was burned red.

After being hit hard, it was even deformed, and alarms of dysfunction were heard all over its body.

"Oh!"

Fuel tank leaking.

The fermented food residue exploded instantly with methane, and the strong liquor that was drunk before to provide energy was also ignited by the laser.

Zero Two stood in the flames, like a sculpture that had returned from hell. His kinetic energy was lost, and he was indeed gradually solidifying like a sculpture, no longer as agile as he was at the beginning.

But he couldn't believe it.

This is not logical.

Zero Two yelled, "If you do this, the scholars will definitely punish you!"

The other party should know better than you.

Among them, cannibalism is an absolute prohibition...

Even in this case.

Zero Two was still using the encrypted language taught to them by the scholars.

"No, if he knew... instead of punishing us, he should praise us." A voice came from afar.

Because machines need to use logic, but humans don't.

When you learn this, you will be able to grasp the essence of becoming a human being.

Of course, Zero Two couldn't understand.

He simply mobilized his last bit of strength and rolled along the ground. Although he was still within the coverage of the heavenly fire, he was completely out of the range of the crossbow arrows.

"Boom!"

However, there was a loud sound of metal.

Ling Er knew that he had hit something, and the lasers in the sky stopped.

Or rather, it was blocked by something.

He glanced around.

Load the screen.

A huge machine blocked his way, and lasers fired crackling sparks on its body.

Within a few meters, it was as bright as daylight.

Four steel legs were firmly stuck around Zero Two, imprisoning him.

"Iron Spider..." The Skeleton Man was horrified and couldn't understand. "No, it's the Security Spider!"

These old-time machines, after losing control, often wander around involuntarily in certain areas and indiscriminately attack passers-by.

Such as the Iron Spider, the legendary Iron Trail is famous because of them.

But the mechanical model in front of him was not those ownerless machines in the wild, but security machines specifically responsible for guarding ancient laboratories and armories.

Bigger and more powerful.

Even though the offensive weapons that were originally equipped with it have all become ineffective, the physical impact of this steel body alone is enough to make it a killing machine.

Their only weakness is that as a defensive machine, they are slow to move actively... If you encounter one in the wild, most people can run away on foot.

But Ling Er was held back by the crossbow arrow.

This is how he was caught red-handed.

"Wait... my identification code is..." Ling Er wanted to show his unique identification code as a former citizen of the Second Empire, but he suddenly realized: in order to transform into a human being, those things had already been removed by scholars.

“——I am a human.”

He wanted to smile as the Bible said, by pulling up the muscles and skin on both sides of his cheeks - but all he could move were stiff mechanical bearings.

click!
The security spider pressed down with a bang.

In the distance, people only saw a huge machine smashing down madly under the illumination of laser fire and earth. Red steel splashed and quickly cooled into iron-gray fragments in the air.

The collision of iron and fire.

Venting out violence that is beyond the reach of any living creature.

In the legend of Shandi, there is a giant beast that can never be tamed - the Iron Beast.

Lu Meng put down the Old World crossbow.

He knew... Security Spiders usually did not leave the security perimeter they had set, which was the lost ancient ruins.

It is for this reason.

The ruins are difficult to explore and full of dangers.

For example, technology hunters will not rush there even if they find a map and traces.

But the safety spider appears here...

There is only one possibility:
They are controlled by humans and their programs are changed.

"Sure enough, the 'people' in the Land of Revenge have realized that I used them to solve the beast disaster and the Merchant Guild with the help of the Skyfire." Lu Meng thought, "Since my original strategy failed, they will not repeat the same old trick and hope that they can stop the world from spying with just the Skyfire..."

Then, another trump card will be played.

Finally, the security spider turned its camera and looked around vigilantly, then extended a robotic arm, reached into the debris under it, and took out a chip.

The shell is broken, but the lines are clear.
