The Mechanic

Fear is the strongest and most invincible instinctive reaction of human beings. Whoever controls fear can control everyone.

Because Zhang Xun and Adam were too quiet, the machine didn't seem to detect them, so it continued to search forward. Only then did Adam lean into Zhang Xun's ear and whisper, Look, this is Eden's version of the pet dog. Isn't it cute?

... Which eye of yours sees it's cuteness? !

Chapter 37 Wilderness (5)

The other team members seemed to have done the same thing as Adam Zhangxun. They dodged into several other mine tunnels, turned off the flashlight, and waited in fear for the flailing mechanical monster to patrol past. The monster probably sensed the sound before, but failed to find the source of the sound. It wandered back and forth in the mine, and a row of millipede-like mechanical legs that kept dancing fell on the ground and made a scalp-numbing rattling sound.

The strange and evil shape of the mechanical monster, the diffuse and disgusting red light, the strange sound of electrical current and footsteps with psychological implications, all together are enough to stimulate the primitive human fear instinct of danger. Some of the older hunters were able to suppress the fear, but the young red-haired hunter was visibly panicking. When the mechanical monster turned a corner and entered the side road where he was hiding, he messed up his stitches and started fleeing desperately.

The sound of footsteps was immediately captured by Eden's mechanical dog, and its tentacles that stretched and swayed suddenly rushed in the same direction, and the uncomfortable red light began to flash rhythmically. A piercing siren sounded. It started to gallop, its countless legs seemed to be floating across the ground, the speed was frighteningly fast. It only took a moment for Zhang Xun and Adam to hear the young man's terrified screams.

In the darkness, the two of them didn't need to speak, and rushed towards the mine tunnel where the screams came from. Adam turned on the light, the light beam tore through the darkness, and shone on the evil metal not far away.

At first glance, the young man seemed to be suspended in the air. But when he looked carefully, he found that his shoulders, waist, and thighs had been penetrated by several tentacles of the mechanical monster. The blood damaged the battle suit on his body, and the invisibility effect disappeared, revealing the blood-stained cloth more deeply.

Let him go! Another hunter roared, raising his gun to shoot at the mechanical monster. But the bullet landed on the mechanical dog's body, bursting into sparks and bouncing off one after another, flying around like out of control, and accidentally injured another team member's arm.

The other tentacles of the mechanical monster turned towards the others, and the red light at the top of the tentacles became more and more hot. Adam immediately yelled, Get down!

As soon as the words fell, the red light exploded and rushed towards all of them.

Under Adam's warning, everyone fell down one after another. The red light hit the rock wall without making any sound. However, when the momentary light dissipated, an extremely smooth and round concave hole several meters deep appeared on the rock wall. It was as if a whole piece of land was vaporized silently, and scattered into countless scattered smoke and dust.

If this kind of thing hits a person's body, I'm afraid there will be no bones left before they can even feel the pain.

Zhang Xun broke out in a cold sweat, no matter how many times he repeated the experience of brushing shoulders with death, he couldn't get used to it. Especially with such efficient and ruthless killing.

The mechanical dog aimed at them again with those tentacles. Apparently it only intended to take one alive, and the rest were to be killed immediately.

At this time, Adam suddenly opened his mouth and shouted a long string of weird and obscure gibberish language. He spoke so fast that he didn't even break a sentence or have a chance to catch his breath, but his articulation was exceptionally clear, and every tricky syllable could be accurately expressed through the coordination of his tongue, teeth and vocal cords, almost like he was chanting a spell.

Zhang Xun immediately recognized that this was the language of AI.

Something strange happened. The red light at the top of the mechanical dog's tentacles, which was about to launch a second wave of attacks, suddenly dimmed a bit. All waving of the tentacles ceased, and it stood motionless, seemingly confused.

Adam continued to speak words that can only be understood by love, and his blue eyes seemed to reveal complex thoughts that humans could not read, showing a kind of alienation and remoteness beyond the world. The body of the mechanical dog began to tremble, and the sound of electric current and metal friction from the body became louder and louder, somewhat like the noise produced when the CPU overheats. It trembled more and more violently, and then suddenly everything was quiet.

The mechanical dog froze in place.

Quick! Save people! Adam shouted to Ganon and the others, I used the program loopholes of this mechanical dog to disrupt its operating framework and created an endless loop that temporarily overloaded and froze it, but only In a minute it restarts itself.

Everyone was dumbfounded, no one would have imagined that it would be possible to modify the code of a killing machine by speaking? !

But there was no time for hesitation, and the few people who were not injured rushed over to rescue the seriously injured young man who was on the verge of coma. But at this time, Zhang Xun heard the familiar rattling and metal rubbing sounds again.

There are more coming! We have to retreat! Zhang Xun said to Ganon in panic.

But Canon looked out of the tunnel and whispered, It's too late.
