Chapter 249 The Second Generation of Artificial Angels!

Returning from school, Jing Chen rubbed his forehead helplessly. Astraea had caused quite a commotion at school yesterday. However, Jing Chen couldn't just leave Astraea unattended, because he had absolutely no way of guaranteeing what would happen if he left her out alone.

Considering all the above conditions, Jing Chen had no choice but to bring Astraea to Zhi Shu's house. Of course, Zhi Shu was absolutely against it, but he had no choice. Jing Chen explained to Zhi Shu all the possible disturbances Astraea might cause, and Zhi Shu reluctantly agreed.

"Please, listen to me."

A voice rang out, and Jing Chen opened his eyes in a daze, immediately seeing Daedalus beside him.

Jing Chen sat up, rubbed his forehead, and asked, "Daedalus, what's wrong?"

"Jing Chen, something terrible has happened. I came to see you about the second-generation Angel Robot..." Daedalus hadn't finished speaking when he vanished.

Jing Chen was puzzled. How could Daedalus have suddenly disappeared? Jing Chen had encrypted his dream; even Synapse shouldn't be able to easily invade it. Could something have happened?

Jing Chen remembered vaguely hearing Daedalus mention "second-generation Angel robots" earlier. Could it be because of the second-generation Angel robots?

But the second-generation angel robot... isn't it called Chaos? How did it suddenly get dragged into Chaos?

Suddenly, a dark shadow appeared in front of Jing Chen. Jing Chen couldn't see the shadow's appearance clearly; the shadow's body was a mass of black matter. Jing Chen could only see the blade-like wings on the shadow's back.

"Come play with the puppet," the shadowy figure said.

Jing Chen suddenly noticed the Icarus that the dark figure was carrying, but the Icarus now seemed to be...

Jing Chen, a dentist, waved his right hand, and a starry sky appeared in it. He aimed at the dark figure and shouted, "Whoever you are, let go of Icarus!"

However, the shadowy figure ignored Jing Chen, lifted Icarus, and kicked it hard in the abdomen. Fragments flew everywhere. Enraged, Jing Chen pulled the trigger. The bullet passed through the shadowy figure's body without causing any damage.

"What! How is this possible!?" Jing Chen exclaimed in shock.

The bullets loaded in the starry sky can now annihilate a physical entity, so why is the dark shadow in front of me able to penetrate the bullets?

No, the dark shadow in front of us isn't a physical entity!

Realizing this, Jing Chen clenched his left hand, and a magazine appeared in his palm. He quickly ejected the magazine, then reloaded it and chambered a round. The entire sequence of movements was fluid and seamless, without the slightest pause, as if he had practiced it tens of thousands of times.

After reloading, Jing Chen fired a shot. This time, the black shadow failed to penetrate the bullet and was instead blasted back several meters, leaving a fist-sized hole in its black body.

"No matter who you are, if you lay a hand on the people around me, you will die!" After Jing Chen finished speaking, the second bullet flew out of the muzzle and hit the black figure's body accurately.

In that instant, the shadowy figure was pulverized into atoms and vanished into the air. However, after the shadowy figure disappeared, Jing Chen realized that he was in a dream, and everything that had happened before was an illusion.

Realizing this, Jing Chen breathed a sigh of relief. If something had really happened to Icarus, then even if that dark figure had died a thousand or ten thousand times, it wouldn't have been enough to quell Jing Chen's anger.

Jing Chen addressed those around him: "Daedalus, I believe you witnessed what just happened, and I know you can still hear me. Since that's the case, I'll tell you. I know that dark figure; it's your second-generation angel robot, Chaos. However, rescuing her is not within the scope of our cooperation. Therefore, if she harms Icarus or Nymph in the slightest, she will die! I think you won't doubt my words, after all, the Happy Sisters are a prime example!"

After saying that, Jing Chen disappeared from the dream. In Synapse, Daedalus stared at the screen in front of him, pondering what Jing Chen had just said, lost in thought.

Among the previous Happy Sisters, one of the Happy was the prototype of Gamma. Although the prototype was similar to the mass-produced model, in many ways, the mass-produced Yuanyuan was inferior to the prototype. Jing Chen single-handedly destroyed both the prototype and the mass-produced model. Facing the second-generation angel robot, perhaps, as he said, Chaos will not escape the fate of Gamma!

Jing Chen opened his eyes, and before he could even react, he heard Icarus's voice: "Good morning, Master."

It was a rare weekend, so Jing Chen woke up a little late. When he got up, Icarus was nowhere to be found. He went to the living room and saw Icarus sitting at the table watching the midday show.

"Alpha is so clumsy, she completely forgot to go buy things." Nymph muttered to herself as she looked at the midday theater, then suddenly lay down on the floor and said cheekily, "I really want some snacks."

Jing Chen walked in and asked, "Nymph, where's Icarus?"

"α went out to buy something," Nymph said, looking at Jing Chen.

Jing Chen nodded, and Nymph suddenly sat up and said, "I'm hungry."

"Then go check in the refrigerator. Maybe there's something there," Jing Chen said, shrugging.

Nymph went outside and was about to enter the kitchen when she heard a sound. She looked towards the source of the sound but saw nothing. Nymph then turned around and went into the kitchen.

"Am I overthinking it?" Nymph said as she walked to the refrigerator, opened it, and was shocked. Astraea was curled up on the top shelf, shivering from the cold.

Nymph looked at Astraea with a dark expression, and asked with some disdain, "What are you doing?"

Astraea trembled passively. "I came here intending to eat all of that guy's food, but there's nothing in the fridge! What's going on? I'm starving!"

Nymph yelled, "Ugh, this is so annoying! I want some snacks too!"

And so... the two of them were on the ground, one rolling around and the other crying and fussing. They were quite in sync, one wanted to eat and the other wanted to eat snacks.

Jing Chen walked over with a puzzled look and asked, "Wait, Nymph, Astraea, what are you two doing here?"

"I want to eat! I want to eat!"

"I want snacks! I want snacks!"

Astraea and Nymph shouted.

Jing Chen sighed, "Won't we have food and snacks when Icarus comes back? We've already waited this long, so waiting a little longer won't be a problem."

"Of course it's not a problem for you! I haven't had any snacks all day!" Nymph said.

"I haven't had a proper meal in three days!" Astraea said.

Jing Chen sighed, deciding to ignore them and return to the living room. He boiled some water, brewed some tea, and slowly savored it.
