Lin was standing not far away from the fallen peacekeepers. There was no cover at all. He was just standing in the open space. However, Lupita could not see him. Even when she was looking at him, it was as if she did not see anything strange.
This was one of the logic bombs that Lin had designed to deal with the Tower of the Great Sage. It was also a backup plan to protect his own life. He did not want to repeat the story of inviting the enemy into a trap and come up with a killer move that he could not solve. Then, someone else would use it and kill him happily. This was the stupidest thing in the world.
A programmed weapon was actually very easy to disable. The premise was that one could hack into the weapon's underlying program. Not to mention that the current mystical land did not have any concept of a firewall. The Tower of the Great Sage was built by itself. Even if there was a firewall, it was easy to tamper with the program and open a backdoor.
The artificial souls created by the mystical land's original technology were not exactly the same as the artificial souls created by programs. However, there were still similarities to some extent. The similarity was that both were used to control inanimate objects. It was a very convenient method for mages or owners of objects.
Before today, the mystical land's attack on artificial souls such as the Tower Genie and the Guardian was similar to how it attacked the souls of ordinary creatures. It forced them to submit, weakened them, and then destroyed them. It was unheard of to put an artificial soul into such a device and fight with the original artificial soul for control.
This meant that the original artificial soul in the mystical land was completely defenseless against programmed attacks. The logic bomb that Lin detonated at the bottom of Lupita's base actually had a very simple function. It replaced everything that was observed with Null and made someone completely disappear from the target's view. In a sense, they became invisible.
Although the same logic bomb was tested before and the results were very successful. However, it was inevitable that Lin would be a little worried if it was actually used. It was until he saw the murderous and violent little loli saying something that someone did not understand with a smug look on her face. She did not even look at him directly. Only then did Lin feel relieved.
It was as if the one-man show was enough. Under Lupita's control, the peacekeepers were released from their original state of lockdown. The silver-bearded dwarves also regained their freedom of movement. Because all the joints of the armor were locked, the functions of speech and sound reception, as well as the projection of the outside world inside the helmet, were all turned off. It could be said that the dwarves were trapped inside. For a moment, they thought that they could only wait for death.
Although it had only been a few minutes, it felt like half a lifetime had passed. When all the functions of the peacekeepers returned to normal and the dwarves could move again, they first looked at each other. No one knew if the situation just now was a special case or if it was the same for everyone.
Suddenly, a sharp-eyed dwarf saw that the specially-made peace armor used by the High Races had become charred and fallen to the ground. He hurriedly shouted, "Jermaine, look at your big brother."
At this time, everyone turned around and saw a rather strange scene that they didn't know how to explain. The special peace armor was lying on the ground, and the Nuclear Guardian Lupita was sitting on top of it. The human mages, who were supposed to be in the armed forces of peace, were standing a little further away.
He guessed that the dwarves might have been controlled and not conspired with the loli. Therefore, before the dwarves could say anything too strange, Lin said to them: "Just pretend that I've fallen inside the peaceful armor. Then don't worry about me and find a reason to leave as soon as possible. She … "He pointed at the little loli with a devilish grin on her face," … can't see or hear me now. "
Of course, for Lin, even if these dwarves were in cahoots, he didn't care. Because his existence had been completely removed from the bottom of Lupita's hierarchy. Even if he pushed her, he would only be thought to be caused by an unknown external force.
This kind of control towards the bottom was just so unreasonable. Unless the opponent was shrewd enough to bypass identity recognition and establish an unrelated reference, it would be possible for someone who had disappeared to reappear in the observer's perspective.
In that case, someone would just detonate a second or third logic bomb, that's all. That was nothing. But no matter how many life-saving means he had, he wouldn't be despised. After all, he only had one life.
Although only Jermaine could communicate with Lin relatively smoothly. But with his hints, the other dwarves more or less knew how to understand someone's words. Therefore, when Lin spoke, the others understood and ignored someone, minding their own business and talking to the little devil who always hovered between life and death.
Jermaine, of course, had a bellyful of questions. He asked first: "My Lord, what did you do to my big brother?"
"Hey, didn't you want to lure him here and then kill him? I helped you do it, no need to thank me. "
"No one said that we wanted to kill him."
"You said it before." Lupita showed an aggrieved expression and said: "Or are you going to put the blame on me again. Sad ~. "
What blame is put on you! Which one of the things that we did before wasn't set up by you! The dwarves all shouted this in their minds. But no one dared to say it out loud.
Jermaine looked at the mess and didn't know how to clean it up. Lin had already used his own method to examine the core area. Although it wasn't as good as the equipment in the dwarves' bags, the results of the examination could support his inference. So when he found that the dwarves seemed to be stuck and didn't know how to continue, he used exaggerated hand gestures to gesture outside.
Jermaine, who could understand, suddenly said: "My mother asked me to go home for dinner."
"Pfft." Lupita laughed and said: "You haven't used this excuse for more than four hundred years, why do you want to use it again today? Okay. Maybe you have to deal with this stranger. Go back and tell little Nail that outsiders can't be trusted, they only want to take the Mise energy nucleus. Think about it, if you lose the nucleus, can this city continue to be maintained? "
"Okay, I'll tell my father." While Jermaine dealt with the troublesome guardian, he hooked the iron chain onto the peaceful armor that had fallen to the ground. At the same time, a few dwarves did the same. When everything was ready, the dwarves dragged the burden that had lost its ability to move and were about to leave.
But the gate of the passage was not open, which made the dwarves who were already standing in front of the gate nervous. Jermaine forced himself to be calm and said: "My good lady, your gate is not open, we can't leave."
'Aiya, is that so? I forgot. It's normal to forget things when you're old. Don't you think so, little Jiejie? "
"Yes, yes, it's normal, it's not your fault."
Suddenly, the topic changed, and Lupita said in a low and depressed voice: "You mean I'm really old, sad, sad."
"I … I …"
The topic changed again, and Lupita laughed and said: "I'm just kidding. Are you scared? "At the same time, the sound of the gate opening was heard, but it was from another passage. The dwarves couldn't help but wail in unison: "My good lady."
"Wrong, wrong, please don't be offended." Lupita laughed again, and the gate opened and closed again. The wrong gate was naturally closed, and the one in front of the dwarves was open.
Before the dwarves left, they still didn't forget the etiquette of this place. Because they were wearing peace armor, they all saluted the Nuclear Guardian with their fists. That was the action of hitting the left side of their chest with their right fist, and then bowing their heads in salute. Lupita stood in place, smiling sweetly at the dwarves and waving her hand.
Lin followed closely behind the other dwarves, and walked out of the gate calmly.
The group kept silent for a long time, and the dwarves' minds were in a mess, not knowing what to say. Lin was sorting out the data that had just been detected, and converting it into the data that should have been checked by the dwarves' instruments.
After leaving the core area and walking for a short distance, Jermaine finally couldn't help but ask: "Brother, you're not a ghost, are you?"
"Have you seen a ghost like me?"
"To be honest, I haven't seen one yet. It's just that you're following the Demon King, and if you die, you'll become a ghost directly. It's not surprising at all. "
"You think that way because of Fen. Don't worry, if I die, I'm really dead, and I won't become a ghost or anything. So right now, I'm really alive and kicking. "
"Then what happened just now?"
"Well, although I'd like to satisfy your curiosity now, I have a feeling that I'll be saying the same thing many times. So do me a favor, and if you have any questions, wait until you see your dad and clear it up again. Please hold it in for now, and think about what questions you want to ask. "
Jermaine, whose full name was Jermaine Neles' father, was also the current patriarch, Neles Erben. The silver-bearded dwarves didn't have such a thing as a "family name." All children's family names were actually the names of their elders, either from the father's or the mother's name. That was to say, knowing a family's name was equivalent to knowing their family's genealogy.
Fortunately, the silver-bearded dwarf didn't have any tradition of introducing himself by reciting the names of the elders in his family when they met for the first time out of respect. This kind of joke that could only be seen in novels hundreds of years ago didn't appear in this group of dwarves who used their father's name as their surname.
Even in the era of the Empire, the silver-bearded dwarves had a parliamentary system internally, and the so-called chief and emperor were more like conveners of meetings. And usually, those meetings were a situation of chatting for an entire afternoon, and serious business for three minutes. Sometimes, some dwarves were busy and couldn't attend the meeting, and it was the chief who conveyed the message. Lin wanted to find Jermaine's father, which was actually the same as looking for the entire silver-bearded tribe.
