Energy Warrior!
An extremely powerful Energy Warrior!
The moment Des was sent flying by his lackey's glare, a series of nouns and adjectives flashed through the minds of Nika, Dunlop, and the thirty or so men and women who came with them.
Des's lackeys, on the other hand, were in a daze, completely unable to react. To them, everything happened too quickly and too strangely, they did not have the time to form a logical chain of cause and effect.
Energy Warriors who trained their bodies, even before the arrival of the apocalypse, were not unfamiliar to them. The legend of the great Ma Mingcheng was a powerful Energy Warrior.
In the Middle Ages and before modern times, Energy Body Warriors were a glorious military profession. However, with the rapid advancement of science, the Energy Body Warriors, who progressed slowly and trained arduously, finally lost their usefulness in front of cannons. Faced with all kinds of weapons that became more and more advanced and powerful, the Energy Body Warriors, who only had individual advantages, were gradually and mercilessly eliminated by the times.
Before the arrival of the apocalypse, only a few ascetics who were known as masters still persisted in this ancient profession, the rest of the ordinary people, aside from the occasional need to exercise, basically no longer involved themselves.
They were not like the five countries of the new world, who had seen the power of the cardinal ruling over everything, of course they were not oppressed by the cardinal, but they were also not like Earth, where science was excluded from the dark energy system before the arrival of the darkness, and after the darkness, the weapons created by science fell behind the cultivators.
But after the arrival of the apocalypse and the arrival of the aliens, everything changed drastically.
All advanced weapons could not be used, any modern electronic products were classified as taboo, and the strength of a single individual became the rule of the underground order. The ancient military profession Energy Body Warrior was resurrected from the rot, becoming the new ruling power of the underground cave.
Des was an Energy Warrior, and a very powerful one at that. That was why he could occupy the most spacious and best cave in the vicinity, nurturing hundreds of thugs and hundreds of people under his rule, becoming the local tyrant of the cave.
However, even the veteran lackeys who had followed Des on 'expeditions' and witnessed the battles between the three major forces, had never seen an Energy Warrior who could send someone flying with just a glance. Furthermore, this Energy Warrior was actually Des's insignificant follower, someone they were familiar with.
The appearance of the alien machine finally perfectly explained the incomprehensible contradiction in their hearts. All of this was attributed to the cold machine that drilled out from the bottom. There was no need to waste any more brain power to think about the reason — the aliens could naturally do anything, no matter how unbelievable it was.
The scene that followed was not too chaotic. The people who had dealt with the alien robots for four years naturally knew what to do. They all knelt on the ground in a standard posture, dropped all the weapons in their hands, and dragged their tails on the ground to show their absolute submission and lack of resistance.
The reason why the alien robots appeared here was obviously because of the explosives. Thus, Des's men handed Dun Lou and the others over without hesitation.
Based on past experience, the alien robots would leave on their own after executing Dun Lu and the others who violated the rules. They would not harm the "innocent".
Dun Lucius was dragged by Des's men to the side of the pile of explosives under the cold robot. His face was ashen, and the 30 men and women with him were also in despair.
The aliens would never tolerate the use of explosives, and the only thing waiting for them was execution.
Nika felt as if she could finally be freed from the nightmare that had haunted her for four years. Her heart was abnormally calm. She put away the dagger in her hand and looked at the trigger on the explosives.
At this moment, she really wanted to rush over and blow up everything that had rotted here and perish together with the alien robots. But she knew that was an extravagant hope. The robots were far faster than her, and the explosives she made were not powerful enough to blow up the alien machines. Instead, they would collapse many underground caves and bury and kill many Homo sapiens.
But at this moment, a figure flashed in front of her. She wanted to stop it, but it was too late. The figure passed by her and went in the direction of the robot.
Des' men also saw it, and all of them were pale with fear. They didn't know what was wrong with this follower who had a little problem just now. Was he going to drag everyone down with him?
Even the robot looked at it with a "strange" expression. It seemed that no one had ever dared to be so presumptuous in front of it — not since the decisive battle three years ago.
It seemed to be "enraged" by this presumptuous behavior. The cold weapon's muzzle slowly opened from its body, as if it wanted to smash this disobedient life into a pulp.
Des' men were extremely nervous, and Dun Lou couldn't say anything. He stared at the follower "floating" past his body. Yes, floating past, as if there was no gravity, or as if it was being lifted by some force, walking in the air!
Then, the most surprising moment finally arrived. The robot, whose dignity seemed to have been challenged, also seemed to be stunned. This follower actually ignored it and directly floated past its body.
Then, it became angry. The weapon finally opened, and the sound of metal whirling echoed in the cave.
However, the moment it aimed at this arrogant and ignorant person, an even more powerful program coldly sounded in its body:
"Your authority is not enough!"
"Your authority is not enough!"
"Your authority is not enough!"
…
If it was a real intelligent life, it would definitely be shocked or terrified at this moment. However, it was only a robot. It could only feel that there was a higher and more powerful program controlling it, making it lose all of its "dignity".
The follower floated up and went to the other end of the cave without looking back. It seemed to have encountered some trouble. At this time, it turned around and spoke to the robot. This caused Des' men's jaws to drop, and Dun Lou and the others seemed to see some hope. The second scene that Nicar would never forget in her life —
"Come here and help me with something."
…
In the darkness, many people had already climbed up. They rubbed their eyes and looked at the scene in front of them in disbelief. The cold alien robot was like an obedient servant, working hard to drill into the bottom of the cave in front of the follower.
They looked at each other. It was so strange that Des' men and Dun Lou's men temporarily forgot about the tense situation before them. Des, who had just woken up, couldn't even breathe properly. He crawled on the ground and pretended to be dead.
This scene was so strange that it was a little scary!
"Could it be, it's, it's …" Dun Lou's voice finally recovered a little, but it was still trembling. He looked at the enemy just now. At this moment, Des' forehead was bleeding. Suppressing the huge panic in his heart, he said: "It's, an alien?"
They had never seen a real alien before. Many people even guessed that the alien was not a human at all. Maybe it was just a radio wave. The scene in front of them: Des's follower, an obedient robot … seemed to confirm this rumor.
Des also seemed to have forgotten about the grudge just now. He bit his lip and said: "No, I don't know, but it's definitely not Wyvelent. It's not him, it's definitely not him!"
He denied it as if he had seen a dead person, and stared at the other end of the cave.
The robot was still obediently drilling into the bottom, and the follower followed behind it. It seemed to be thinking about something, and from beginning to end, it didn't say a word to them. It seemed that it had never said a word before.
The speed of drilling was very fast, and the robot and the follower's shadow quickly disappeared from the hole.
Des and Dun Lou looked at each other and didn't know what to do. What happened today was too strange, even more terrifying than death. But for some reason, it made them feel a little uneasy. After all, they had never heard of a robot listening to the orders of a Kraken, even if it was a Kraken that had been invaded by aliens.
Nika Er was the first one to follow them and enter the dark cave.
The others didn't know what she was thinking, but soon the second, the third … followed.
This change, a phenomenon that had never happened in the past four years, it meant that it might be an opportunity, or something was about to happen. Although they didn't know what the opportunity was, if this "follower" was really an alien and wanted to kill them, it would have killed them just now. There was no need to wait until now.
Des and Dun Lou were the last to enter. The two of them seemed to have suddenly changed from enemies to allies.
Des's people had martial strength, while Dun Lou's people had the most outstanding brain power in this area.
In the darkness, they felt their way forward, and Des's "wealth" was also revealed. More than a dozen glowing stones were brought over and used to illuminate the path. But the strange thing was, the robot at the front did not turn on the light, and the follower seemed to be able to see it.
They followed cautiously all the way down, maintaining a distance. In fact, this distance was only a psychological effect that they felt safe. The follower never turned back from the beginning to the end.
The newly drilled hole became steeper and steeper, and the energy bodies on Des's side also played a role. Otherwise, it was almost impossible for them to continue following. If they were unlucky, they would fall down directly. If they fell on the body of the "follower", they would probably die even if they didn't.
They walked and climbed all the way down. After a long time, when almost everyone was exhausted, they finally reached the bottom.
The cold robot was like a harmless printer before doomsday, lying motionlessly on the ground at the bottom of the hole.
When they carefully avoided it and came down, they realized that there was another world here. Although it wasn't very big, it seemed to be a big cave.
The "follower" floated in front of a "door". As for why there was a door here, they didn't want to think about it anymore.
Des and Dun Lou squeezed through the crowd that didn't dare to go any further and came to the front. Then, they heard Dun Lou carefully and nervously shout, "Nika, don't go over there, come back!"
In front of the two of them, Nika was walking towards the "follower".
But she didn't turn back, nor did she stop.
Dun Lou was scared and anxious. He wanted to pull her back, but was immediately stopped by Des who said in a low voice, "Let her go."
Dun Lou looked at Des under the dim fluorescent light and struggled for a moment, but in the end, he gave up.
He knew what Des was thinking. He wanted to use Nika's life to test how close the "follower" would be to them. Or, he wanted to use Nika's life to test the intentions of the "follower".
Perhaps there was a chance, but something had to be sacrificed.
Only now did Dun Lou truly believe that Des, this treacherous person, was indeed not someone who would be willing to pay any price for a woman's body.
Nika's footsteps stopped a few steps away from the "follower". She had a feeling that even if she didn't stop now and walked over and stood beside it, it would seem as if it couldn't see her. As long as she didn't interfere with what it was doing, it didn't matter where she appeared.
This kind of feeling, it was very easy to find an analogy — a small animal!
Who would care about a tiny ant crawling beside them when they were making explosives in a cave?
Right now, she felt that she had become that ant. This kind of feeling was very strange, because the other party was also a humanoid, or at least its body was.
She didn't continue to verify her guess, because that would only bring disgrace upon herself. It seemed that there was no need to do so.
So, she stood to the side and observed the "follower", trying to understand something from its every move.
But after a moment, she powerlessly gave up.
She didn't know what method that "follower" used, but it opened the door in front of it, revealing a narrow space with nothing but dust. Then, it closed the door, and opened it again, repeating this process over and over again. It was impossible to see what it was trying to do.
In the back, Deus, Dunlop, and the others saw that Nika was walking around the 'follower' without the slightest sign of danger. In order to get a clearer look at what was behind the door, or perhaps to get closer to some kind of opportunity, they gathered their courage and began to move forward.
Des fell behind again, but he was still cautious. Perhaps it was because he was considering that this matter would require Dun Lou's help in the future, he pulled the man whose mouth was still red and swollen to the back.
The crowd gathered around it. One step, two steps, three steps, getting closer and closer. The "follower" did not move at all. Gradually, the crowd became bolder and bolder. Finally, they surrounded it from behind and stuck their heads out to look inside.
Seeing this, Des estimated that it was now safe, so he pulled Dun Lou and squeezed forward again. There might be some secret behind the door, but what he cared about was not the secret, but the sliver of opportunity brought about by the changes today. He had to show some sense of existence.
At this moment, while he was still squeezing, he heard the "follower" say something to itself. Of course, they couldn't understand it.
"They must have been here, but what did they take?"
Then, it stopped repeatedly opening the door, turned around, and with a wave of one hand, an invisible force pushed the crowd, including Nika, Des, Dun Lou and the others who were squeezing forward, backwards, and landed on the opposite wall of the cave.
All of a sudden, the crowd was terrified, thinking that it was their time to die. They didn't even have the courage to escape. Of course, since they followed, they were already prepared for this.
But after a while, they realized that they were fine. Other than a fall or a collision, they didn't have any other injuries.
In the midst of their shock, they didn't have time to think too much before they saw the cave suddenly "light up"!
Beams of light came out of nowhere and reflected each other in the cave at an extremely fast speed. Before they could adapt to this intense light that they hadn't seen for a long time, the surrounding cave seemed to have disappeared in an instant.
What replaced it was a dream-like three-dimensional space. Grid lines crisscrossed the ground and the surroundings, overflowing with light. It was as if they had arrived in a world where their visual systems couldn't distinguish between reality and illusion. Below their butts, there were obviously stones used to smash people.
Then, an extremely beautiful lifeform, illusory yet real, appeared in front of them, speaking to the "follower" in words that they couldn't understand.
"… Sequence member, what do you need me to do?"
The follower said, "Bring me all the records of the lifeforms from the outer space after they arrived."
The extremely beautiful lifeform said, "Alright, send it over immediately. Do I need to restrict their authority? I've recorded some illegal operations. "
The follower said, "No need, I need them to not know what I'm doing."
The extremely beautiful lifeform said, "Alright, their authority is lower than yours. You have the authority."
…
Deth couldn't understand at all, but Dun Lu seemed to have finally remembered something.
"You understand?" Deth didn't want to miss a single detail of Dun Lu's expression as he stared at him.
Dun Lu shook his head, a little confused, or perhaps uncertain, he said, "No, it's the words from above. Just now, I felt that it was somewhat, somewhat, similar to the words of the Emissary?"
Deth's eyes widened, his heart pounding as if it had been detonated by dynamite. After the explosion, he realized that the greatest opportunity of his life had finally arrived!
At this moment, Deth wasn't the only one who could hear Dun Lu's words. After a short moment of astonishment, everyone else in the surroundings collapsed — —
"Is it them?"
"Is it the cosmic race that the Emissary came from?"
"Yes, I've heard of them before. They are extremely beautiful."
"Have they finally come?"
"We're saved, Mother. Can you see it? We've finally arrived. "
"It's been four years …"
…
Nika, who had slammed into the wall and injured her arm, was also slightly moved. She felt like crying, not only because of the follower in front of her, but also because of another reason.
Back then, when the last space station was destroyed, the distress signal sent from the ground was disrupted by the aliens. Everyone pinned their hopes on Corrien, who used his life to complete the distress signal at the last moment.
And now, if the body of the follower in front of her really belonged to the great cosmic race that the Emissary came from, then it meant that Corrien had succeeded!
However, she had taken away Corrien's chance to escape …
Her eyes were a little moist, and then she felt a little uneasy. This was because the feeling she sensed from this follower was perhaps not what the excited people around her thought.
Will they come to save us?
…
The follower was looking at the records quickly, and suddenly stopped at a spot. He asked, "They already left half a year ago?"
The extremely beautiful lifeform said, "Yes, but I don't know what the machines they left on this planet are trying to do."
"To confuse us," the follower said. The follower then explained another detail: "When we came here, we forgot that this gate was actually a double gate. The key we used could only open one gate, and the other gate required the Life Force of both genders of the Bi royal family, not just one — —"
Then it turned around and looked at Deth and the others. For the first time, it spoke in the Bi language. "Do you know where the royal family is now?"
Deth, who was waiting for an opportunity, slapped Dun Lu's already red and swollen mouth again. Then he respectfully stood up, walked to the front, and kneeled down. "Great lifeform, the royal family's bloodline has gone extinct. Those aliens killed them all."
