Just now, Huimao had received an electromagnetic wave transmission that indicated that these robots were planning to rebel.
However, what puzzled Silin was why they didn't rebel earlier or later, but instead waited for them to arrive. Also, was it Azrael's people who caused the robots to rebel?
Although he couldn't be sure, Silin still had to be cautious when it came to matters involving "Azrael." Otherwise, he would regret it if they were all wiped out.
A person dressed in a servant's uniform came over and led Silin to Frenz's study.
Silin didn't deliberately look at the servant who led the way. This servant was also a robot, and he was also one of the "rebels." From the looks of it, this servant was still playing the role that Frenz had given him. He was polite and had a smile on his face, looking very friendly. If Huimao hadn't received the electromagnetic wave from this servant, Silin wouldn't have guessed the robot's next goal.
Standing at the door of Frenz's study, the servant pressed the notification bell. A light screen popped up on the door, showing the face of a middle-aged man.
"What's wrong?" the middle-aged man asked.
From his voice, it was obvious that he was dissatisfied with the interruption just now. This man was Robert Frenz.
"Master, this gentleman said he has something to tell those two about the T13 mine," the servant replied respectfully.
At this time, Falvey and Shotton, who were sitting inside, felt their hearts skip a beat. Frenz didn't set it to private mode, so Shotton and Falvey could clearly hear the conversation between the master and servant. They could also see Silin standing behind the servant outside. Because of this, they also knew that Silin wouldn't say something like that for no reason. Silin didn't know the details of the T13 mine contract, so something must have happened.
Although they both had their own thoughts, Falvey and Shotton didn't show it on their faces. Falvey took the initiative to cover up the lie with Silin.
Frenz's expression softened a little, and he nodded. "Since it's about the T13 mine, let's talk inside."
Following Frenz's voice, the door to the study opened, and Silin walked in.
Shawton noticed that Cillin's fingers that seemed to be hanging casually at the side of his body had vibrated very slightly. It was a very short period of time, less than five seconds. Within these five seconds, Cillin had walked through the door, greeted Frenz, and performed a simple bow. But for Shotton and Falvey, the impact of these five seconds was too great.
The code transmitted by Cillin's fingers was, "High alert. The robots are rebelling. They want to kill Frunze."
Frenz looked at Silin and was about to speak when suddenly, more than ten gun barrels jumped out from Carl's arm and shot at Silin, Falvey, and Shotton.
The servant who came in took out a high-energy lightsaber and a disc-shaped device in his other hand. He rushed to where Frenz was sitting. There was a transparent energy shield there, and the servant threw the disc-shaped device at the energy shield.
The disc sucked on the energy shield, causing it to become weaker and weaker. Frenz, who was inside, obviously couldn't react to the current situation. He really couldn't understand why the robots would react this way. It wasn't until the energy shield dissipated and the servant rushed over with the lightsaber that Frenz thought of dodging.
Silin kicked the servant away and chopped off the servant's wrist with the wrist knife in his hand. There was no blood at the cut area, but some fused fibers and transmission lines.
The wrist knife in Silin's hand was obtained from the stronghold. It was better than the wrist knife that had been destroyed like tofu, and he could still cut down the robot with ease.
The robot didn't feel any pain when its wrist was chopped off, and its movements wouldn't slow down because of the wrist.
Dodging the servant's sudden kick, Hao Ren ducked to avoid the attack of the lightsaber, and at the same time, he slashed the servant's neck with the wrist knife.
Chi —
Although it wasn't completely cut off, it was almost there. Some of the lines were cut off, and the lightsaber in the servant's hand disappeared. However, Silin didn't relax because of this. Sensing that something was wrong, he turned his head reflexively. Two beams of light brushed past the ends of Silin's hair, which emitted a burning smell.
The two high-density energy beams came from the servant's eyes. His neck was almost cut off, but he was still able to fight back like this. Silin had no choice but to continue smashing.
Yes, smash. He punched the servant's face again and again. When he fought with the servant just now, he knew that the robot's exterior was made of hard materials, so he could smash it with his bare hands.
Only when the servant's entire head was smashed into a pancake did he put down his kicking leg and stop moving. Only then did he really "die."
Facing Carl's attack, the three people who were already prepared dodged in time and opened their energy shields. Before coming in, their guns were all placed in the storage box in front of the door, and they only had wrist knives and some small knives on them. But this was enough. If they could open their energy shields, they could get close to Carl and find an opportunity to kill him.
While Silin was fighting the servant, the two captain-level characters were fighting Carl at the same time, forcing him to keep retreating. In the end, Carl seemed to see the situation clearly and retreated.
While there was movement on Silin's side, the battle in the hall had also begun. The entire hall was a mess because of the battle between the two sides. That luxurious dining table had already been destroyed beyond recognition and turned into scraps.
Chifeng had long since lost that naive look from before. Right now, his entire body was filled with a brutal aura. The long claws at the tip of his fingers directly penetrated a maid's heart and then forcibly ripped it open. Watching the maid whose body had been split in half lying on the ground, Chifeng clawed at the maid's head again. Someone had been injured by the beams of light from these robots' eyes just now, and he didn't know if they were dead or not. Therefore, Chifeng was very cautious. He would completely destroy any threatening parts, and if one claw didn't work, he would follow up with a few more.
Not far away, the people of Earth Three B Squadron who saw Chifeng's actions felt their eyelids twitch.
This is … too fucking brutal!
Although Tang Qiuqiu didn't have Chifeng's brutal abilities, his marksmanship was excellent, and he was shooting almost non-stop. There was no so-called aiming time at all, and it was all based on touch and instinct. The modified bullets entered those robots' eyes and then exploded. Therefore, every shot Tang Qiuqiu fired was a true headshot.
A headless robot would also have a certain degree of offensive ability, but it was indiscriminate. Not only did it attack the people of Team Three and Sixth Team, it also attacked the other robots. This also lessened the burden on the others.
There was also a white shadow scuttling around, and wherever the white shadow passed, there would always be robots sent flying, crashing into the ceiling or the surrounding walls. The walls didn't have any dents, but the robots were on the verge of falling apart, and those that didn't were also slow.
Meanwhile, the starships outside the planet had also left the spaceport, avoiding the possible threat here.
Before Silin went to Frentz's study, he had already sent a message to the starships outside the planet. Of course, it was encrypted. Outsiders would see one message, but after the people in the team decrypted it, it would become another message. Silin told them to pay close attention to the movements here, and to leave the spaceport once they found any abnormalities, and not to get involved with matters related to this planet. Reinforcements had to be arranged carefully, and they couldn't be killed in the air before they could come to the rescue.
In the study, after getting rid of the servant and forcing Azrael away, Silin briefly explained the development of the matter to Frentz. After all, it was a robot under Frentz's command that had betrayed them, and whether or not it was because of "Azrael" was the cause was still undetermined.
Frentz looked at Silin with a complicated expression, silently walked to the wall behind the chair, and pressed his palm on it.
Where Frentz's palm touched, a flat surface that looked like an electronic board appeared. Frentz pressed a few numbers, but those numbers were definitely not passwords. Otherwise, he wouldn't have entered them in front of Silin and the others.
After entering, compared to a picture and some data from Zhan Kai, Frentz was stunned. "Third-generation …"
"What?" Falvey asked. He was very unhappy that a deal had turned out like this. His team members were still fighting the robots outside, and he didn't know what the situation was like.
Frentz sighed. "All the third-generation robots have betrayed us!"
Third-generation robots?
Silin and the others didn't know what Frentz meant by "third-generation" robots.
Looking at the picture on the wall, a group of light dots surrounded the center. The one in the middle should be the castle, and those light dots were the "third-generation robots" that Frentz had mentioned.
Frentz operated on the light wall for a while, then turned to look at Falvey. "Have the people you brought here all entered the castle?"
"Everyone is here except the people on the spaceplane."
"That's good. The castle will be sealed. The traitors have surrounded us."
Falvey turned around and walked outside without saying a word. Since the castle was sealed, then the "traitors" inside the castle must be eliminated.
The "knights" and "servants" inside the castle had already rebelled, and the original guard roles had been changed. The bloodstains on the ground belonged to the Third Squad and the Sixth Squad. These robots didn't have blood. Therefore, Falvey and Shotton felt their hearts heavy when they saw the bloodstains on the ground.
Regardless of whether their lives were in danger or not, a lot of blood had been lost.
Perhaps Frentz had activated the castle's defense system, but the rebellious robots were attacked from all directions. They had nowhere to hide inside the castle, and of course, they wouldn't hide.
Very soon, the rebellious robots were cleaned up, and the medics were treating the wounded. Two Third B Squadron members were dead, and many were heavily injured. Fortunately, there were a lot of good medicine and medical equipment inside the castle, so the heavily injured were treated in time.
But right now, both Shotton and Falvey were in a pretty bad mood. They were trapped inside the castle, and they had no idea how the spaceplane was doing. They couldn't get in touch with it at all, and their communicators couldn't receive any signal at all. Therefore, Falvey went to Frentz and used his communicator to contact the people on the spaceplane.
Fortunately, the spaceplane didn't seem to be under attack. Right now, the people inside were still wondering why they had suddenly lost contact.
Before this, Silin had only told them to be on high alert, but he didn't tell them to leave the castle in case they needed the spaceplane urgently. But right now, they really didn't need it.
Therefore, Falvey and Shotton ordered the people inside the spaceplane to leave the planet and rendezvous with the starship. They would contact each other when the time came.
Although Falvey and Shotton really wanted to leave this place on the spaceplane, the spaceplane would definitely be shot down before it could even get close to the castle. Third-generation robots didn't just travel on the road.
Before the arrival of the Third and Sixth Division, Frentz was the only one in the castle. The other members of the Robert family, Frentz's wife and children were all on the other side of the planet. This was equivalent to Frentz's place of work.
After the incident here, Frentz contacted the people on the other side of the planet and activated the highest level of defense. There weren't many third-generation robots on the other side. Eighty percent of the Robert family on the planet were there, and with another layer of protection, Frentz wasn't worried about the situation there.
"A, send the signal," Frentz, who was lying on the chair, said softly.
A signal was sent from the castle and covered the entire planet. All the fourth-generation and fifth-generation robots that received this signal began to change. Their previous roles were no longer needed. The people in the villages and towns that Silin and the others had seen, regardless of whether they were men or women, old or young, immediately changed their status.
After a while, Frentz finally left his study and came to the hall. After all, as the host, he had to explain something to the guests.
He drew on the wall with his finger, and the wall turned into an electronic screen, showing the situation outside.
"The third-generation robots have all been infected with the 'virus'. Now, I've named this virus' Rebellion '. All robots infected with this virus will no longer be controlled by the original core program and will instead execute the program of the virus, which is what you've just encountered. But the strange thing is that the fourth-generation and fifth-generation robots are all normal. This virus can obviously infect the fourth-generation and fifth-generation robots, but in reality, it's not like that. In other words, this behavior has a purpose. "
"Azrael?" Shotton asked.
Frentz nodded. "It should be. The Robert family wouldn't do such a thing. Silin also said that he received an electromagnetic wave signal from 'Azrael.' "
He didn't ask why Silin was sure that he received the electromagnetic wave signal from 'Azrael,' nor did he ask why Silin knew that the robots would rebel. Frentz didn't have time to worry about these things now.
Looking at the image displayed on the wall, Falvey frowned and said, "If the fourth-generation and fifth-generation robots you're talking about are the civilian-looking robots we've seen, even though they have the advantage in numbers, it seems that they can't completely withstand the third-generation robots."
After a pause, Falvey said, "Since there are third-generation and fourth-generation robots, then are there first and second-generation robots?"
Frentz didn't answer this question. He just looked at the image displayed on the screen.
Outside the castle, the fourth-generation and fifth-generation robots were fighting against the third-generation robots. Whether it was in terms of material or equipment, they weren't as good as the third-generation robots. However, their suicidal attacks were a huge obstacle to the third-generation robots.
In the image, a "child" with only half a body left grabbed a third-generation robot and self-destructed. Such a close range explosion was indeed a great threat to the third-generation robots. However, looking at the scene of the explosion, everyone felt a strange sense of depression in their hearts. Even though they knew that it wasn't a human, they couldn't help but feel that it was unavoidable.
Many people looked at the image on the wall, but Silin only looked at it for a moment and then stopped paying attention. Although his eyes were still on the screen, his thoughts were no longer on it.
The robots' "gossiping" earlier was actually to figure out if these people could understand the meaning of their communication. Wheeze didn't act like it understood what they were saying, so everything happened very quickly. But right now Cillin was puzzled as to why the robots chose this time to talk to him.
In other words, why would "Azrael" choose this time to make the third-generation robots betray him?
Frentz definitely didn't know about this. Silin could see that he wasn't lying.
So, what was "Azrael's" purpose this time?
He definitely didn't want to kill Frentz. Otherwise, the robots wouldn't have stopped Silin from going to the study. The reason was because they didn't really want Frentz to die.
After thinking about it, Silin speculated that "Azrael's" purpose was still on Frentz. However, he didn't know how exactly Frentz would react.
The fourth-generation and fifth-generation robots became fewer and fewer. In the end, many fourth and fifth-generation robots were destroyed by the powerful firepower before they could even get close to the third-generation robots.
The guns on the fourth-generation and fifth-generation robots could only make a small hole or dent in the third-generation robots' bodies. Anyone with a discerning eye could see the difference, and they also expected this result.
"What should we do?" Falvey looked at the screen and said.
This question was asked by Frentz, and no one else said anything. Kari rubbed his shoulder cannon, and Chifeng was playing with his fingers. He probably hadn't killed enough. Xueqiu was very quiet, sleeping next to Tang Qiuqiu. However, if one looked into its eyes, they would know that this white fatty had been "playing" very happily.
More and more third-generation robots had gathered around the castle. The third and Sixth Team didn't have the patience to calm down. They didn't know how long the castle could last, and they were prepared for the robots outside to break in.
Frentz rubbed his eyebrows and said helplessly, "A, activate the second-generation activation wave signal."
Second-generation activation? Second-generation robots?
What did the second-generation robots look like?
The screen showed an image of another part of the planet. It was a mountainous area with many tall mountains. However, gradually, everyone was shocked.
One of the mountains began to change, breaking down into small pieces, and each piece turned into a human shape.
That … was the second-generation robot?!
It was as big as a mountain, and the broken pieces were densely packed on the ground. It was much smaller than the third-generation robot, but it was still the second-generation robot, so it should be more powerful. It should have no problem taking down the third-generation robot.
However, it didn't take long for Frentz to scream.
"Impossible!!"
Looking at the image on the screen, Huimao, who was lying on Silin's shoulder, shook his beard. "I think … we fell into a trap."
