"What?" Huai Shi did not understand.
"The car."
Tongji raised her wings and let out a roaring engine sound. "That car that can drive on any kind of lousy road! The one that can be used to pick up girls and blow up thieves! "
She emphasized seriously, "Look at how cool other people are when they drive. I won't allow other people's children to have things that my contractor doesn't have!"
Don't!
Why do you still need a car?
Huai Shi was so scared that he almost lost his grip on his chopsticks. "Don't you have a horse?"
"That's not convenient to transport goods. It has a bad temper and has gained so much weight recently. Also, it likes your students more than it likes you. It doesn't even want you to ride it."
Tongi wrapped her little wings around his neck and began to murmur like a demon. "Think about it. With Helios, won't you be able to go wherever you want? Rob whoever you want? Steal whatever you want?"
"No, no, no."
Huai Shi finally caught the rice that had spilled out of his mouth. He wiped his face and shook his head. "I have to be that lucky too!"
"Why don't you have that kind of luck? I see that your life is precious beyond words. You're just a lousy car that's one version behind. You're destined to be a virtuous person like you … "Tong Ji egged her on even more." Besides, don't you still have me, your sister? "
"It's because of you that I'm scared!"
Huai Shi's eyes widened. "This lousy car. Even the sisters outside don't have it, but you insist that I have it. I don't think it's anything good … Besides, it's trying to steal from a master. Do you want to die?"
How could he not know?
Previously, he had used too much of a cheat, causing Young Master Ming to enter a titled state and unable to use her soul weapon.
Now, he only had a high-grade Xiangjun without any money. Unfortunately, Xiangjun was a stigmata relic. She could not inherit her biggest advantage, the large amount of source substance. She could only use it for self-defense.
After careful calculation, other than Beelzebub, there was only a dog left.
What could he use to fight Publius and Garland?
Just because his dog's head is hard?
Moreover, didn't he say that he would take the opportunity to take some of the Reflection Crystals back? Why did he suddenly want to take the car back?
"Are you stupid? There's still a half-finished god above Helios. Just kill that thing and you'll get as many Light Crystals as you want."
The more he spoke, the more ridiculous it became!
He had to be able to f * cking kill it!
"Don't worry, it's not that difficult." Tongi saw through him at a glance. "Aren't you just worried that you can't beat Pubrus and Garland? They're busy fighting each other now, and it's hard to say what the final outcome will be … Most importantly, there's still a powerful backer to fight for! "
"Who? It? "
Huai Shi subconsciously looked at Silly Skeleton beside him.
Skeleton was also scratching his head and looking at him.
I don't understand why this person is talking to the air … Is this the custom and habit of the Modern Realm? No, no, no. No matter how he looked at it, he was too lonely.
Was this the pitiful guy who fantasized about having a girlfriend in those magazines?
How pitiful, give him two more bowls of rice.
Silly Skeleton became more sympathetic.
Huai Shi couldn't figure out what was going on in Silly Skeleton's empty head at all. He only felt that he was getting more and more confused.
Putting aside the fact that Silly Skeleton had some of the power of a Grand Master when he was at his peak, now that he had lost almost all of his memories, he was only left with his instincts. He could only function by convulsing, which was more exciting than drawing cards.
No matter how he looked at it, it didn't seem reliable.
Tongi rolled her eyes. "Who said it was Silly Skeleton?" "Have you forgotten … Helios also has its own rules?"
Huai Shi's movements stiffened for a moment.
Only then did he react.
Helios himself was not an inanimate object that had no consciousness.
To be precise, this sun chariot that originally represented the movement of the sun. Although it was already outdated, it was still an authoritative relic that inherited the will of heaven.
Even if it didn't have its own will, it still carried out the orders left behind by the gods of the past.
It carried out a futile patrol between the stars once every seventy years.
It had a rather flexible and 'unmanned' system that could cope with all kinds of changes, including self-maintenance, forward movement, docking, charging, and internal updates, as well as other aspects of the situation.
This included limited cooperation with alchemists, as well as opening part of the internal mysteries to the outside world in exchange for the progress of its own restoration.
Just like a rigid AI, it could perfectly execute all preset instructions, and even had a part of flexible thinking.
But the flaw was that once its own rules were controlled by others, it would fall into a passive state and be unable to react in the face of unexpected situations.
That was why alchemists were allowed to exist on the chariot for a long time.
Helios provided its own unique resources and even a unique internal environment, and even the mysteries left behind by the gods. In exchange for the service and protection of alchemists.
The two sides were essentially in a cooperative relationship, not master and slave!
There had always been only one object of loyalty, and that was the long-dead Olympian gods.
But now, it was obvious that the rigid AI had been tricked.
This time, it was the veteran who had been tricked!
How tragic.
Huai Shi could understand what had happened just by patting his head.
It was obvious that a bug in the internal rules had been exploited and it had fallen into a trap. All its belongings had been taken away by Pubrilius and used to build the Transformers!
But this did not mean that Helios had lost its power. On the contrary, although its body had been destroyed, its power had been strengthened like never before in this secret ritual.
It was just that it could not control itself.
If it could be used properly, it might be possible to wrestle with the Grand Master. Even if the success rate was low, it was still better than sitting around and waiting for the friendly forces to attack.
Besides, even if it did not succeed, couldn't it give them some trouble?
Since they had nothing to do …
Huai Shi, who would never admit that he had been convinced by Tongi, coughed and put down his bowl.
"Why don't … we give it a try?"
Let's give it a try.
Let's give it a try first.
.
Half an hour later, Huai Shi once again picked up the saddlebag and the dog, ready to go.
At the door, the skeleton handed over a huge and heavy bottle. "Here, water."
"Thank you, thank you." Huai Shi filled the bottle with gratitude.
However, he was surprised to see it dragging out another box. When he opened it, it was filled with vacuum-sealed blocks.
"Ah, I almost forgot," the skeleton said. "There are also compressed … biscuits? I don't know, but they seem to be food. Here. "
"There's such good stuff!"
Huai Shi's eyes lit up. He opened the bag and began stuffing it.
The skeleton next to him was still carrying out all kinds of things. "Do you want tea leaves? You seem to like tea a lot. By the way, do you want tape? It will be troublesome if the spacesuit breaks … Ah, there's a tent here. Wait a moment. "
"Bring a teapot? Bring a pot too. I don't really need it anyway. "
"Do you want a change of clothes?"
"There's a headlamp here, but the battery is almost gone."
"Do you want a watch? It seems to be able to tell the time. I haven't figured out how to wind it yet. I don't know if you know how. "
"Bring a pair of binoculars too."
"This is a rod-shaped object that can vibrate. It seems to be very powerful. Bring it for self-defense …"
Forget about the last one!
Before Huai Shi could refuse, his body was covered with gifts from the skeleton. There was a grill in his left hand and a box of old clothes in his right. He was almost unable to walk.
Seeing the skeleton stuffing the vibrating object into his trouser pocket, he jumped back a few meters in fright.
"No, no, no, there's no need for this."
The skeleton was puzzled. He didn't quite understand why Huai Shi was so afraid of this thing. After scratching his head, he was about to recommend some more skeleton department stores when he saw Huai Shi take a few steps back. He pulled the dog that he was particularly reluctant to part with and said goodbye. "It's getting late. I'll leave first."
"Ah? Oh, oh … Goodbye! "
The skeleton was stunned for a moment and waved to see him off. "Have a safe journey, brother!"
"En, you should go back soon too."
Huai Shi took two steps and waved goodbye again. He turned and walked into the depths of the darkness.
But as he walked, he couldn't help but look back.
He saw that in the light behind the broken crack, half of the skeleton was still sitting in the same place, waving at his back.
There was no expression in the empty eye sockets, but it made people feel that it was full of blessings and expectations.
It made people feel even more guilty.
It was difficult to walk.
Huai Shi withdrew his gaze with difficulty and took a few steps forward. In the end, he stopped and sighed in frustration.
He turned back and looked behind him.
He scratched his head.
He asked tentatively, "Why don't … we go together?"
In the silence, the skeleton was stunned for a moment.
Immediately, half of the body jumped up from the ground, raised its arms, and grinned in joy.
"Yay!!!"
"…"
Huai Shi couldn't help but cover his face.
It was such a dangerous thing. You should have hesitated for a moment!
But on second thought, Helios was such a ghost. It might not be safer to let it stay here than to stay by his side.
Although it was definitely not safe to stay by his side …
Just like that, according to the surveillance footage of Helios after the incident, at 1: 15 p.m., the broken three-wheeled car carrying two people, a dog, and a little white mouse started to move!
It creaked into the depths of the steel maze.
.
.
At the same time, Hades stood in the hall that was filled with tragic blood.
With an expressionless face, he handed a photo to the darkness.
The photo disappeared into the darkness.
Immediately, a hoarse voice sounded, "Who is this?"
Hades replied indifferently, "The gold medal fighter of the Astronomy Club, the successor of the Ivory Tower, the King of Danbo, Huai Shi."
"I seem to have heard of it in hell …" the existence in the darkness glanced at the photo in front of him suspiciously. Looking at the smiling face on it, he couldn't help but frown, "Is it a man or a woman?"
"Male."
"He looks quite young?"
"Yes, eighteen," Hades lowered his eyes and sighed with admiration, "Young and promising. It's shameful."
The thing in the darkness snorted.
"How should we deal with him?" he asked.
"Find him, kill him, and chop off his head."
Before Hades finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something and cautiously emphasized, "No, you should personally chop him into meat paste, destroy the Sacred Mark, and then use the Gray Poison to contaminate all of his source substances.
Remember, don't give him any chance to jump off a cliff, escape, fake death, or resurrect. "
"So cautious?"
The blood-seeking hound revealed a sinister smile, "This is the first time I've seen you so cautious."
"And your answer?" Hades asked coldly.
"I will, just as you wish."
The darkness swirled and disappeared without a trace. Only the scattered ashes gathered on the ground, forming a line of blurry footprints that disappeared into the distance.
The person wearing the crown disappeared without a trace.
