Chapter 129: Runaway Maintenance Machinery
Inside the fortress and near the core area.
The two elders Taotao and Jiejie were running in a hurry and finally arrived at the nearest safe house.
Considering that the core area is also the enemy's key target of attack in wartime, the safe house is specially set up a little further away.
Of course, the more important reason is just a space chosen by the designer... After all, no one thought that someone would be able to attack here.
As soon as they closed the heavy door, they didn't wait for the two of them to breathe a sigh of relief, they saw the door made of multi-layer composite steel plates shaking.
Immediately afterwards, a layer of white frost quickly climbed on the door panel, and the white frost quickly condensed into a thin ice shell. Taotao Jiejie and the others hiding inside felt a biting cold.
Click!
The ice layer suddenly cracked a hole... and the door below also cracked.
boom!
There was another loud bang. This time the door could no longer hold on, like fragile porcelain, cracks crawled all over the door panel in the blink of an eye.
Then, the door that was highly anticipated was shattered all over the ground.
A terrifying man with a cold air all over his body was now outside the door, looking inside with no emotion.
The two great elders of the Shen clan were stiff and did not dare to move.
After a moment of stalemate, Jiejie forced himself to press the fear in his heart as if he had come back to his senses, stepped forward and blocked his companion, while taking out a wrench-shaped staff from his pocket and whispered tremblingly.
"Jiejie, are you crazy?" Taotao's low voice came from behind.
The Shen clan is not good at fighting, nor is it good at magic from other demons. However, it does not mean that they do not have combat capabilities, nor does it mean that they cannot use magic.
In fact, most of the best large-scale ritual magicians in the demon world are from the Shen clan, or are the guys who have studied abroad in the Shen clan.
However, the Shen tribe called the magic they used as "arcane", a special method of casting that is completely dependent on wisdom and standardized rituals.
Jiejie, the fourth elder of the Shen clan, is a master of great arcane.
If he is given enough time and space, he can even exert terrifying attack power far exceeding the level of the Demon King.
But... just like all the demons of the Shen clan, if they encounter close combat, any leader of the thousand men can kill him...
In Woz's eyes, this was even more unthreatening - at least, he didn't have the time to wait for Jiejie to finish reciting the spell.
"Enough!" Woz tapped his head with his staff, forcibly interrupting the other party's spell.
The great elder of the Shen clan, who was overly frightened, fell to the ground and looked at Woz in shock.
There is also a demon of this breed? Woz muttered in his heart, but he was too lazy to ask more questions.
"What's this place!" he asked straightforwardly.
"This is a safe house, a place to protect us from the war!" Taotao also told the truth.
"The core area of this world should be nearby, right?" Woz asked again. He completely mistakenly thought these two timid guys for ordinary craftsmen and did not use too much scheming.
Usually, small people have a little less confidentiality awareness and will always reveal a lot of information unconsciously.
"Uh, the core area needs a little more inside."
However, although the two great elders of the Shen clan are in high positions, they really do not have any sense of confidentiality.
"Yes." Woz looked back, "Thank you..."
At this time, the ground was vibrating violently.
Taotao Jiejie knew that this was a change in the module inside the fortress, or a movement caused by some large-scale machinery moving.
His Highness Sophia's mechanical legion is coming here!
"Then, please hide it." Woz walked out of the safe house, shaped an ice cube with his backhand, and closed the safe house tightly again.
Neither Woz nor Taotao Jiejie noticed that in the short breath just now, a small object shining with a metallic luster fell from Taotao's waist.
After several bounces on the ground, the small object left the safe house.
The brass gears gain energy through the vibrations from the ground and roll tirelessly along the passage.
Soon, it hit a certain obstacle.
A repair puppet made of steel.
This puppet is the most common model inside the fortress, with a scorpion-like lower body, a human-shaped upper body and hands.
The maintenance puppet is more than two meters tall and has a body length of more than two meters. Compared with the small gear under its feet, it is a huge monster.
At this time, the repair puppet is undergoing repair work. Its scorpion tail is a high-energy laser welding machine, releasing dark red rays to repair cracks on the wall. The wide back space is its tool box and material rack, filled with various tools for its use.
The maintenance of the puppet is not intelligent, so it completely ignores the weak impact under the feet.
But the brass gear stopped moving forward, as if it had accumulated a scorpion power in place, then suddenly bounced upwards, changed its trajectory in the air, and flew to the maintenance puppet with a whoosh.
The maintenance puppet stopped working immediately, as if suddenly realizing something, and looked down.
Buzz!
The brass gear rotates at high speed and turns into a small chainsaw, tearing open the shell and armor of the repair puppet, and then drills into it.
A violent movement sounded in the maintenance puppet's body, and the whole body was twitching and trembling like an ordinary human being electrocuted. All the joints were twisting strangely, and the mouth that was originally used for decoration also opened wide, making a silent roar.
In just a few seconds, everything suddenly calmed down and the maintenance of the puppet returned to normal.
Except for the wound on the chest, it is no different from before.
The maintenance puppet turned its head and looked around. Then lowered its head and opened its hands to look carefully.
Slowly wrap your five fingers, clench your fists, and then slowly spread them.
Boom! The buzzing sound of the machine running at high speed suddenly sounded in the body, and the brass gear embedded in the transmission mechanism of the body rotated at high speed.
The eyes of the maintenance puppet lit up instantly.
It reached out and pulled out a chain saw from the toolbox on its back.
Buzzing...
The chain saw is directly connected to the power source in the puppet body and instantly enters an overloaded state.
call!
The maintenance puppet tried to wave it, leaving deep tearing holes on the walls and floors.
Nodded with satisfaction, lowered the chain saw speed, and repaired the puppet patrolled forward along the passage.
Opposite, Woz was walking towards him.
Woz saw a repair puppet patrolling the passage from a distance, and didn't care much.
Woz already had a lot of knowledge along the way, knowing that this model of puppet is just a repairman, and its preset procedure is to repair the damaged parts of the fortress, not including combat.
So later Woz chose to ignore them and walked directly from the side.
But... Woz frowned and glanced at the repair puppet for an extra glance.
When approaching it, strictly speaking, the moment when you enter the attack range of the chainsaw, the roar of the motor suddenly soared several steps, and it felt like the crazy speed of the engine was about to burn out, driving the chainsaw into a truly violent weapon!
The rapidly rotating chain saw fell down when it was headed.
Woz looked like this indeed and he avoided it calmly.
But unexpectedly, this maintenance puppet had unexpected sensitivity and power. After finding that this attack could not work, he quickly changed his move to sweep!
This is not in line with the normal performance of a puppet! Woz was shocked, and it was too late to dodge again.
So I could only raise a staff to block it.
Sizzle, Mars are splashing everywhere.
Due to power overload, the chain saw made an unpleasant sound and quickly scrapped.
At the same time, the staff in Woz's hand was also sawed out of a crooked wound - this was the first time since this staff was injured!
Chapter completed!
