"Pssst …"
A ball of sticky liquid sprayed onto the passage pipe, and smoke immediately rose. The transparent pipe that could withstand hurricanes was instantly corroded, leaving a huge hole.
Energy corrosive liquid!
Hayashi River was shocked. This was a prohibited biochemical weapon developed by the Great Eastern Continent a long time ago. It was specifically used to deal with the oceanic beast army.
However, this energy corrosive liquid was too harmful. After the armed forces of the Foka Spire grew stronger, they abolished this prohibited weapon.
According to the information that Hayashi River knew, the mechanical marionettes equipped with this biochemical weapon should be models from a thousand years ago. Moreover, they only had three generations before they were abolished.
The mechanical puppets from one thousand years ago had actually been activated, and they had gone berserk. When Lin Chuan saw the phantom-like shadow among the piles of wreckage, he was rather shocked. Wasn't the energy level a little too high?
"This is strange …" Hayashi River thought to himself.
"Mr. Chuan, let's go." The staff member at the side said anxiously.
The staff member did not panic. The transparent pipe that the mechanical marionettes corroded just now belonged to Gu Teng and Sweet. It was very safe here.
Hayashi River nodded. He was still thinking about the purpose of Gu Teng and Sweet's group entering the level-2 warehouse area, and what was in the small box.
"Bam!"
Suddenly, a ball of light exploded in front of them. Gu Teng and the rest had used an optical smoke grenade to interfere with the mechanical marionettes' pursuit.
Then, a sharp whistle was heard. Intense collisions came from the ball of light, followed by screams from afar. "Watch out … These berserk mechanical marionettes are heading that way …"
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh …"
Five black shadows dashed out. They were five mechanical marionettes. Although they were missing arms and legs, they were extremely fast. They flew toward the transparent pipe that Hayashi River was in.
This scene frightened the staff member so much that his face turned pale. Just now, he was glad that he was not implicated in this accident.
In particular, he could see Gu Teng's misfortune, which made it even more exciting.
However, he did not expect five mechanical marionettes to rush over in the blink of an eye. It was said that berserk mechanical marionettes were like mad dogs, and it was not wrong at all.
Chi la Chi la Chi la …
Three clumps of corrosive energy spilled over, instantly melting a large hole in the transparent pipe. This scene reminded Hayashi River of molten plastic film. It was so similar.
However, the smell of the transparent pipe melting was much worse than the smell of plastic melting. If one was not wearing protective clothing, just the poisonous smell after the melting could directly poison a Realm Two powerhouse.
Buzz …
As Hayashi River was thinking about this, he activated the Levitating Disc and flew towards the exit of the Level Two warehouse area.
He glanced in the direction of the glowing mist, his expression slightly cold. Others might not know what had just happened, but he could sense it with his mental energy, so he could see everything clearly.
These five mechanical puppets were not attacking randomly. Gu Teng had used an interference device to lure these mechanical puppets over.
As for that exclamation, it was purposely made by Sweet. It seemed to be a reminder, but it was actually to mislead Hayashi River.
These two fellows had a tacit understanding with each other …
Should it be said that they were jackals of the same tribe …
Hayashi River sneered in his heart. Looking at the five figures that were relentlessly chasing after him, he was not worried about these berserk mechanical marionettes.
It was true that the combat power of these mechanical marionettes was comparable to an expert above Realm Five Level Seven, and they were not afraid of death, so they were very difficult to deal with.
However, this was only for those martial artists. In the eyes of Hayashi River, these mechanical marionettes were broken, and it was too easy to deal with them.
It was also good that he could take this opportunity to stay in the Level Two warehouse area for a while.
As he thought about this, the exit in front was already in sight. The staff pressed the remote control device, opened the emergency exit, and was about to call Hayashi River to go in together.
Suddenly, a mechanical marionette leaped up and swooped down from mid-air. It continuously spewed out corrosive energy liquid, which split into three directions and attacked Hayashi River, the staff, and the Levitating Disc respectively.
At the same time, another mechanical marionette rushed over and released a sound wave attack. Although it was launched later, it arrived first and directly blasted the staff away.
A scream spread out. The staff was in mid-air, scared out of his wits. His mind was blank, and he thought that he was really done for this time.
Boom!
A force blasted the staff into the emergency exit. It was Hayashi River who had used a mechanical device to deflect the staff's direction.
"Close the door," Hayashi River shouted.
"Mr. Chuan!"
The staff member shouted. He was shocked and anxious. He did not expect that Lin Chuan would help him.
Bang!
The emergency exit was immediately closed. This was not done by the staff, but by detecting the riot of the mechanical marionettes and automatically closing it.
"Mr. Chuan is still inside?!"
The staff shouted, but it was to no avail. To reopen the exit, the danger level inside had to be checked to reduce. Otherwise, the manual opening process would be very cumbersome.
…
"Now I can get down to business …"
In the level-2 warehouse area, Hayashi River controlled the floating disc and nimbly dodged the attacks of the five mechanical marionettes. At the same time, he controlled the [Scaled Arm] and switched it to tool mode, constantly analyzing the data of these berserk mechanical marionettes.
A moment later, he obtained the specific data of these mechanical marionettes and figured out their attack patterns. Soon, he pulled away from them.
Hayashi River did not want to deal with these mechanical marionettes. He took this opportunity to investigate the wall and see if he could find any mechanisms.
Crackle …
An electromagnetic net spread out and blocked the path of these mechanical marionettes. Hayashi River took this opportunity to shake off their pursuit, controlled the floating disc, and quickly rushed to his destination.
"Your Excellency Mossy Bone, we're almost there. Keep an eye on the surroundings …" Hayashi River muttered into his earpiece.
"Don't worry. Leave it to me. I'm not as good as you at scheming and scheming, but I'm a professional, "Mossy Bone said.
At some point in time, this artificial intelligence system had liked to show off its existence like this. Hayashi River sometimes wanted to tell Mossy Bone that if this went on, he would be drifting further and further away from the style of a villain boss.
An image was transmitted through the sensory goggles. The scene in the image was like a net, displaying the scene here one by one.
The image kept zooming in and out, and soon locked onto an alloy wall with a claw mark on it.
This time, after a comprehensive analysis, Hayashi River and Mossy Bone could not help but sigh. The strength of the owner of this claw mark was truly terrifying, to be able to leave such a mark with his bare hands.
From the analysis, it seemed like it was done unintentionally …
"This mark was left behind by a human."
Mossy Bone came to this conclusion after analyzing the various aspects of the data, and even estimated the time.
The later part of the hundred-year war …
"This fortress was built not long ago, or should I say, it was left behind when it was being built …
"From the analysis of the mark, this human's strength is between level-eight and level-nine, and he's around 50 years old …"
…
Listening to this data, Hayashi River's eyebrows twitched, and a figure flashed through his mind — the continent's madman, Cromwell.
From the analysis of the time and data, when this fortress was first built, Cromwell was around 50 years old, and he was also a human. This all fit.
But had Cromwell ever been to Faka Tower?
From the life of this continent's madman, he seemed to have never set foot in this place …
Moreover, if he could leave such a mark with his bare hands, could Cromwell's body reach such a level of strength?
Hayashi River was very doubtful.
As for the derivation of the [Windmill Mist Suppression Art], Hayashi River's earlier parts were even better than Cromwell's, and more complete.
He could deduce that even if this cultivation method was cultivated to its limit, it would not be able to temper the body to such an abnormal degree.
If it was Captain Hai Long, when he cultivated to level-eight, he might be able to leave such a mark easily.
Hayashi River shook his head, a little doubtful about this judgment. He pondered in his mind, wondering if there were any warriors with such strength in that era.
In the era of the Hundred Years War, geniuses sprouted like leeks. The war stimulated the potential of all living beings, and also created generations of legendary figures.
In terms of martial arts alone, there were still many warriors who could compete with Cromwell …
"I'm not sure about that. The most likely one is Cromwell. Don't forget, since Winlington came here, it's very likely that he's following this guy's footsteps," Mossy Bone said.
Hayashi River nodded, agreeing with this statement.
When he approached the wall, Hayashi River suddenly stopped before he could get close. He frowned and looked in another direction.
Bang!
An ear-piercing sound of metal rubbing against each other rang out, and three mechanical puppets rushed out in his direction.
Hayashi River frowned, but did not move. These three berserk mechanical puppets were not coming for him, but for a woman.
These mechanical puppets were more than ten meters tall. In comparison, a human woman's height seemed tiny.
Even though Fei Yu's figure was close to 1.8 meters tall, compared to the mechanical puppets that were more than ten meters tall, it was still not enough.
"Mister … save me …"
Fei Yu stepped on a hoverboard and glided over the undulating wreckage. Her hoverboard skills were excellent, and she barely avoided the pursuit of the three berserk mechanical puppets several times. That situation was truly thrilling.
What was this woman pretending for …
Hayashi River secretly curled his lips. He had to admit that Fei Yu's acting was very good. Even when facing the pursuit of level-five mechanical puppets, she could still put on such a thrilling performance.
Admittedly, this woman's strength made him fearful, but such a thrilling scene was not something an ordinary person could act out.
He took out a mechanical device from his robe. After it was turned on, a crystal pillar rose up, and then a ball of light exploded. This was the effect of an optical smoke bomb, causing the three mechanical puppets' pursuit to stop instantly.
Then, the crystal pillar spiraled and formed a shield that enveloped Hayashi River.
Swoosh!
Before the shield was completely formed, Fei Yu rushed in on the hoverboard.
Ding!
The barrier took shape, and the halo outside dissipated. The three mechanical puppets lost their target, and like ants on a hot pan, they circled around the area. They could clearly still detect Fei Yu and the other lifeform's clues.
But they just could not find their target.
Inside the shield, Fei Yu sat on the hoverboard, panting. Sweat dripped down her forehead like rain, and the sound of sweat dripping could even be heard through the protective suit. She seemed to be scared out of her wits.
Her face was pale, and her eyebrows were slightly raised. Looking at Hayashi River, she smiled gratefully. "Mister Mechanic, thank you for saving me. Thank you so much."
Under Hayashi River's robe, his thumb and index finger rubbed against each other as he calculated in his mind. Then, the corners of his mouth flattened, and his face, which was wearing protective glasses, looked extremely rigid. He said stiffly, "You're very slippery to actually rush in like this. I actually did not consider saving you because you've been locked on, and now these three fellows will not leave in a short period of time. "
Fei Yu: "…"
Under the protective suit, her slender hand clenched into a fist. She really wanted to give this rigid mechanic a punch. This person was really mean. Did he not know how to speak?
