Chapter 19 Survivor

"Rumbling!" A few minutes later, the rumbling motor sounded from the bulky generator in the hangar.

"Okay! The magic crystal collected during this period should be able to work for another one and a half years!" A blonde girl jumped off the engineering mecha, patted the generator, and said happily.

"Well, let's go, the elder and everyone should be waiting in a hurry." Another engineering mecha turned off the explosion-proof light on the robotic arm, jumped off a black-haired young man from inside, turned on the flashlight with the girl, and walked shoulder to shoulder toward the outside of the hangar.

"Tang, I heard that the underground resistance organization in the eastern part of the mainland has also collapsed. Do you think we can still return to our previous lives?" The blonde girl walked a while and asked softly to her companions beside her.

"I don't know. Several elders said that most areas on the continent have fallen, and they may have been controlled by the enemy. Their floating city is very close to the holy city. For some reason, they have been waiting dozens of kilometers away and have not marched towards the holy city again!" The black-haired young man was silent for a while and replied in a low tone.

"Will it be related to the huge orange-yellow shields that appeared in the Holy City this morning?" asked the blonde girl in confusion.

"It's possible! Unfortunately, all the saints in the Holy City have left, otherwise we will know what the reason!" said the black-haired young man depressedly, "Elder Amellis said we should leave as soon as possible. It was the orange shields that seemed to has isolate the portals in the base. We can only wait, hoping that it won't be delayed for too long!"

"Dang, have the elders and the human races of Nathan Continent agreed? Are they willing to accept us?" asked the blonde girl softly.

"I don't know very well that those subhumans must hand over the mecha technology. Several elders originally disagreed, but now the situation is getting more and more urgent, and I'm afraid we have no choice!" said the black-haired young man with some anger, "It's just some subhumans who dare to make such rude requests..."

"Don, their technology is lower than Atlantis, not subhuman! And they have a lot of help from saints..." said the blonde girl bitterly, "Maybe now, we Atlantis people are subhuman in their eyes!"

"Saints..." the black-haired young man thrashed the steel wall hard and said, "Don't mention those saints. If it weren't for them, how could the Holy City be like this now!"

"This has nothing to do with most saints. Those wise races who mock us are not wrong. The reason why saints gave up the holy city was that our high-level leaders had fallen, and there was a problem with the civilization system from the root!" The blonde sighed softly.

"...Forget it, what's the point of saying this now!" the black-haired young man murmured, "Meimei, do you think we still have a chance to return to the Holy City?"

"I think we may not have a chance. Maybe our younger generations can learn from our lessons and return to the Atlantis continent to recover the Holy City!" The blonde girl shook her head with a wry smile.

The two of them fell silent at the same time and walked quietly in the dark passage. After a while, they turned into a spacious passage and came to the front of a steel gate. The gate was about five meters wide and about ten meters high. It looked very heavy, like a dam gate.

The black-haired young man walked to the edge of the steel gate, opened a hidden secret block, pressed a few passwords, and greeted the caller inside the secret block.

A vague mechanical sound came from the caller.

"McG, it's me, open the door!" Perhaps because of the previous conversation, the black-haired young man was in a bad mood and shouted at the caller in anger.

"Dang, what's so fierce about you to attack McGonagall? It's just an intelligent robot!" The blonde girl glared at her companion and said something softly to the episte.

"Kake!" As the password was checked, the steel gate in front of the two people slowly rose, revealing the situation behind the gate.

This is a large warehouse in the base, with about a hundred surviving Atlantis. The corners are filled with various substances, and it seems that the weapons and grain used in the base are stored here. The middle of the warehouse is covered with steel wire beds and hammocks used by soldiers, and several small rooms specially isolated are used as office spaces and medical rooms.

Compared with humans on Earth, Atlantis are more toned, mainly white and yellow. The average height of men is about 1.9 meters, while women are about 1.8 meters, and most people are not as handsome as elves. In addition, the Atlantis are well-developed in technology, no wonder they look down on other human races and think that they are all subhumans.

The Atlantis, who were still awake in the warehouse, just glanced at the blonde girl and the young black haired at the door, and stopped paying attention to them and dealt with the matter at hand. Since it was midnight, most of them were sleeping peacefully, and only a few sentries on duty stood at the door.

After the blonde girl and the brunette young man entered the warehouse, an old man in a white priest's robe walked towards them with a steel robot with a human-shaped skeleton.

"Elder Amellis, Tang and I have repaired the generator in the hangar. The two outsiders who broke into the base are still trapped in the main control room!" The blonde girl bowed to the old priest and said respectfully.

"Elder, why don't we just open the alert system left in the main control room? In that case, we can directly eliminate the two intruders. Judging from their appearance, they are definitely not from us Atlantis!" asked the black-haired young man in confusion.

"No, that will reveal our existence!" The old man in the priest's robe frowned with his long white eyebrows and shook his head. "And... the alert system in the general control room may not necessarily kill those two people. I suspect they are the saints sent by other intelligent races to explore the Holy City... Hey, McGonagall, why haven't the gates closed?"

"There is a heat source outside the door!" The robot's electronic eyes flashed and he turned his head and said in a muffled voice.

"There is another source of heat?! Not good!" The three Atlantis who were talking were shocked. The black-haired young man widened his eyes and shouted at the robot, "Magic, put down the floodgates immediately!"

"It's too late!" The old man in a priest robe smiled bitterly and pointed to the door. The blonde girl and the black-haired young man looked back and saw a slender figure walking slowly towards the warehouse in a dark passage outside the gate.

"Please tell me the order if you come!" The robot with a human-shaped skeleton picked up the laser rifle in his hand and walked towards the figure in the dark, with a slamming and mechanical sound coming from his mouth.

"Haha, the information processing system of this robot is very good. It should be equipped with anthropomorphic brain, right? It seems that Atlantis' machinery and information technology are even more clever than the outside world's rumors!" A young man with a smile slowly walked out of the darkness. With his hands rolled, he held two classic black and white revolvers in his hand.

"Please put down your weapons and receive inspection...Dudu!"

"Bang bang!" As soon as the robot was halfway through, the young man fired his guns, and the two crisp gunshots seemed particularly loud in the darkness, completely shattering the tranquility in the warehouse.

Two bullets with streaming light instantly destroyed the robot's electronic eye. The robot's skull raised backwards, and the laser rifle in his hand was fired at the same time. A bright laser also hit the young man. However, a fiery red light lit up on the young man's body surface, completely offsetting the damage of the laser rifle.

"There are other sensors on this robot? It can actually offset the Shabak Wall with more than 200 scales. This laser rifle is very powerful!"

The young man raised his eyebrows slightly, a breeze swayed around his body, and his figure immediately disappeared from the spot. When he appeared again, he had already flashed to the robot's head, clamped the robot's skull with both knees, twisted his waist and pulled the robot's head off.

"Crack!" The robot fell to the ground with his hands dancing, and a ball of fire burst out from his broken neck, twitching constantly on the ground.

"What's going on..."

"What happened?"

The sleeping Atlantis people in the warehouse woke up one after another, poked their heads out of the wire bed and hammocks, and looked at this side in a daze.

Several sentries in charge of guarding at the door immediately raised their guns and pointed them at the invading young man. There was a cracking mechanical sound at the back of the warehouse. The two tall mechas stood up suddenly. The two mechas were bumpy, with a lot of steel patches, and huge rotary cannons on their hands.

The young man who broke into the warehouse ignored them. He flashed and went to the front of a dining table, grabbed a military kettle, poured it into his mouth, and drank it on his own.

"Put down the gun, put down the gun! Go back!" Elder Amellis stopped the young man in sweat, blocking the muzzle of the sentry, and shouted loudly at the two mechas behind the warehouse.

Several sentries looked at each other and hesitated to lower the muzzle. The two mechas also slowly lowered the rotary cannons. The electronic eyes on their heads kept flashing, as if the pilot inside was judging the situation in front of them.

"Elder, is this person... a saint?" asked the blonde girl with a trembling voice.

The old man nodded, turned his head and whispered to the dazed young man and the blonde girl, "I'll go negotiate with each other, and you'll wake up everyone else. Remember not to let them act rashly. Even if there are two mechas, we can't fight against a changed saint!"

After Elder Amellis told the two of them, he dusted the priest's robe on his body and straightened his back toward the young man.

"Dear Saint, what can we do for you?" The old priest put his right hand on his chest and bowed to the young man.
