Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 669 The last time

"Let's talk business?" Song Shi calmly retracted the flame, his face as usual, as if nothing had happened: "Let me make it clear in advance that you know my attitude towards extreme thoughts."

Lapis Lazuli covered his forehead and waved his hand. The gravitational field sent the intelligent machines lying on the ground away in an orderly manner. In less than ten seconds, only Lapis Lazuli and Steel Principle were left in the originally bustling hall.

"--kill."

Lapis Lazuli uttered a word.

The tone of its voice seemed the same as before, yet it also seemed to have changed significantly: "I am prepared to kill."

Gang Ju didn't say anything, as if he was focusing on the former. Noticing Song Shi's gaze, he shook his camera up and down and shrugged: "I don't like management positions. When Yao Xing San was still here, I was not willing to do tasks other than technical tasks."

"Are you so determined?" Song Shi raised his eyebrows: "You are willing to go to your compatriots--"

"I have smashed the core of more than one omnic." Lapis Lazuli stared at the person in front of him and interrupted, "Whether it was Atar or Lapis Lazuli, I have done it."

"That's no problem." Song Shi stretched and said, "How about I kill all the extreme factions?"

"Three days later."

Lapis Lazuli reported a coordinate.

"We will hold a meeting in the Abyss to discuss the Star Forging Machine God project. I will give them one last chance. Before that, you, Gang Ju and I will approach the construction site of the Star Forging Machine God - if they still insist, I will initiate coercive force measures!"

"I don't care." Song Shi leaned back nonchalantly: "To be honest, I came to help you before, but now what I care most about is how they got in touch with that person."

“I’m as curious as you are on this point.”

Lapis Lazuli's voice unconsciously lowered: "We must not have anything to do with Him."

[Star Forging Machine God. The supreme and great thing will soon be born in our hands! 】

[It's time to make the enemies of the Omnic pay the price——]

【Purify! 】

【The End! 】

[The only thing that should be remembered is hatred, the only thing that is worthwhile is revenge! ]

[As long as the Star Forger launches an attack, everything will be fine! ]

[Let Terra melt and boil——]

【One problem. Attar is still running around, trying to deny us. 】

[Don't say that name! It has already abandoned the identity of 'Attar', it has denied itself! ]

[Agree. It is no longer the 'shooting star' it once was. It used to be tough, brave and decisive, but now, all these have left it.]

[Those who indulge in past glory are not qualified to command today's intelligent machines! ]

Just then, a voice interrupted the channel.

【——Be quiet. 】

As soon as it appeared, the channel suddenly became quiet, with complete silence, as if out of respect, but also as if out of fear.

[Attar, no, Lapis Lazuli did retreat and became cowardly. But it is still a member of the Omnics. It has always been working for the Omnics.]

After a short silence, an intelligent machine said respectfully: "Mr. Node, you are right. But we just despise its current behavior, and do not deny its past contributions. It is just that from an emotional point of view, we really cannot treat it with the same kindness as we respect you. 】

The intelligent machine called "Node" was silent for a long while after hearing this, and then spoke slowly.

[Lapis Lazuli certainly did not become a traitor to those who betrayed the omnics.] [But it just did not become a traitor.]

An intelligent machine asked again.

【What is your opinion? 】

[.The wrong path is more deadly than traitors.] The node said: [It is no longer the Attar I once knew. It is servile and cowardly. But I still want to give it a chance.]

【Last chance.】

【I will negotiate with it in person at the meeting three days later.】

After a brief silence, a unified voice of approval rang out on the channel. Then, one signal after another left the channel.

The node slowly opened its eyes, and a nearby intelligent control robotic arm immediately moved over and unplugged all the cables plugged into the former's body.

A massive amount of data streamed down along the horizon, and a glance at the nodes showed that they were all quite average.

Maybe I am really getting old. It thought that if it were me thirty years ago, I would never feel tired. Even if I had just fought for thirteen days and nights, I could still sit on the ruins of the battlefield and talk happily with the Menba gun.
How happy everyone is.

There will never be such happy days again. The commander of the East Land Republic crushed every inch of the Monba Gun, and the gilded iron fork stationed at Pingdengtian was shattered together with Pingdengtian in the flash of space-based weapons. The first and only leader of the Yaoxing Three who unified all the intelligent machines was shot down from the atmosphere, and the life and death of Atar who was accompanying him was unknown. The latter survived, but it also changed its appearance.

Is this the price of survival?

【choose】

The nodes move slowly.

【There is more than just one way to survive.】

Hundred meters? Thousand meters? Or even ten thousand meters?

No one could have imagined that a huge mountain-like cavity had been dug out from deep within the earth's crust. The steel supports supported the pressure from all directions and also created a cold dome here.

The node raised its head and slowly floated up.

It was as if a god had cut open the planet with a scalpel. On a support that was built against the cave wall and whose highest point could not be seen at a glance, a platinum skeleton was held up. Its unfinished head was drooping, and the spirit in its eyes could not be seen clearly.

Tens of thousands of robotic arms are loading armor on it.

It flew vertically for a while and came to the head of the skeleton.

In the deepest part of the skull, a mutilated human figure lay quietly. It was covered by countless tiny iron thorns, and its body was made entirely of machinery, but most of it was broken and missing. It was soaking in a pool of liquid metal, like a madman thirsty for cerebrospinal fluid.

The node stared at the machine for a long time, as if it wanted to touch something.

But it knows very well that how could a shadow of the past be touched?

After a long time, the node stopped looking at each other. It turned around, and it was unknown when, and there were already intelligent machines standing behind it.

They stood quietly on the ground, floating in the air, and when the former looked at them, they bowed their heads devoutly and respectfully. Only the weapons they were carrying were still flashing scarlet light.

"A new war is coming: the war on Terra, the war between humans, the war between omnics, the war between silicon-based and carbon-based."

"I have walked the entire process of the Freedom Revolution. Some of you have done the same, but more of you have only learned about that period of history through reading hard drives and reading online news - yes, the path I have walked is only a hazy history to you."

"So it's your turn."

"So it's your turn."

"The Star-Forging Machine God will create history in your data lines for others to read."
