Doomsday Sequence Caravan: I Have a Mechanical Heart

Su Mu looked at the garbage mountain in front of him, which was seventy or eighty meters high and stretched for two or three miles.

If you want to get there, you either have to take a long detour or climb over.

This mountain of garbage is full of discarded plastic and other debris, but it's still manageable to walk on.

He glanced back at An Xin, who was sleeping peacefully in the car, and without further hesitation, he leaped up and quickly headed towards the garbage mountain. He soon reached the top and disappeared behind it.

A moment after his figure disappeared, a wisp of gray mist quietly appeared behind Zhu Meng. Upon its appearance, it quickly surged, transforming into thick fog that swiftly engulfed Zhu Meng.

Zhu Meng reacted quickly, immediately closing the car window. It then tried to contact Su Mu, but soon discovered that the connection between them seemed to have been severed.

Then he started shaking the car, trying to wake Anxin up.

But it was, after all, just a sequence artifact, and even with some sentience, it was no match for the premeditated gray mist. Before it could even move, it was firmly imprisoned in place by the gray mist.

Immediately afterwards, a wisp of gray mist entered the carriage and entered An Xin's body.

Zhu Meng frantically spun around, trying to break free from the gray mist's grasp, but to no avail. He was quickly suppressed by the gray mist and fell into a deep sleep.

Then the car windows opened automatically, and more and more gray mist entered the carriage and flowed into An Xin's body. The golden crescent moon between her eyebrows appeared, but it visibly began to darken, becoming increasingly black.

Her face showed pain, and her head would shake back and forth from time to time, but she just couldn't wake up.

the other side

Su Mu had arrived at the foot of the garbage mountain and was shocked by what he saw. Half of the garbage mountain on the east side had been hollowed out, forming a huge cave.

"Could this be the lair of that Lord's Curse?" Su Mu looked at the cave and couldn't help but speculate. The sequence artifact he sensed was deep inside that cave.

He peered deeper into the nest, and seeing nothing unusual, he walked over. Soon, deep within the nest, he saw a stark white bone.

It resembled the shinbone of some kind of animal, about thirty or forty centimeters long, emanating an extremely subtle aura. This was precisely the sequence artifact he had sensed.

Su Mu was a little confused. He had always thought that sequence artifacts should be objects, or at least something that could be used.

But the bone in front of him now completely shattered his understanding.

Despite his shock, he still picked it up and examined it. After confirming that it was a sequence artifact, he put it into his personal space.

He turned around, just about to leave, when he suddenly sensed something and quickly looked back at the garbage mountain he had come from.

A thick gray mist quickly rose up there, and then a black figure appeared in mid-air, looking at him with a cold gaze.

When he finally saw the black figure clearly, his expression changed drastically. "An Xin!!?"

At this moment, An Xin's eyes were as black as an abyss, and the black crescent moon between her brows emitted an eerie, cold light. The pair of wings behind her had also turned as black as ink, and as they slowly fluttered, the surrounding gray mist surged continuously.

She reached out and grabbed a black longbow, which appeared in her hand. Without hesitation, she drew the bowstring and fired an arrow at Su Mu.

Su Mu couldn't understand what had happened or why An Xin had suddenly become like this. But he didn't have time to think about it. He pushed off with his feet and instantly covered seven or eight meters away.

The next moment, a huge explosion occurred where he had been standing, and the raging blast wave made his clothes flutter loudly.

Su Mu's expression changed again; An Xin's attack power had also increased considerably.

Without further hesitation, he quickly patted the six-pointed star on his chest, and a flash of blue light appeared. In an instant, the protective armor was on his body.

He also held the Flowing Light in his hand, but it was currently asleep, greatly reducing its attack power. However, it was the only thing he could use at the moment.

Right now, he needs to subdue An Xin as soon as possible and find out why she turned evil.

An Xin drew her black bow again, this time firing three arrows that hurtled towards him from the left, center, and right.

Su Mu swiftly dodged the two arrows from the left and right. In an instant, a flash of light appeared, and with a bang, his blade shattered the arrow in the middle.

Then he suddenly exerted force with his feet, and with a whoosh, he rushed towards An Xin at an extremely fast speed.

An Xin fired several more arrows in quick succession, but Su Mu dodged them all. Seeing this, she swiftly transformed the black bow in her hand into a broadsword. With a sudden flap of her wings, she shot towards Su Mu like an arrow released from a bow.

next moment,

Thud---

Their swords clashed violently, sparking a dazzling burst of sparks. A violent shockwave erupted, obliterating all the trash within a 20-30 meter radius.

The two figures were also thrown backward by the shock.

An Xin, with her wings, quickly regained her footing and swung her sword to attack Su Mu once again.

Su Mu had just landed on the ground when he stumbled back a few steps before regaining his footing.

But An Xin had already reached him and slashed at him fiercely with her sword.

Su Mu twirled his Tang sword and quickly used the Tai Chi sword technique—Wind Sweeps Away Fallen Flowers—to deflect her attack.

He immediately stepped forward, his long sword flashing like lightning, the back of the blade striking his wrist.

Su Mu dared not attack her vital points, for fear of hurting her.

But An Xin had no such concerns now. Her attacks became increasingly fierce, almost reckless, and she didn't care at all whether she would get hurt.

Soon, Su Mu also realized this, feeling both angry and anxious, but there was nothing he could do.

The thing parasitizing An Xin's body wasn't trying to possess him, but rather to use him to kill him. Therefore, it used every possible means possible.

For a time, he was in a rather passive position, not daring to use force, and having to be constantly on guard against An Xin's ruthless and cunning attack methods.

Su Mu knew that this couldn't go on; he had to find another way to subdue An Xin. While dealing with An Xin's attacks, he searched for usable metals in the junkyard, preparing to forge a chain.

Although he had a lot of metal in his personal space, it was too big and extremely inconvenient to use.

Soon, he spotted a rusty shelf on a distant mountain of garbage, the perfect size for him to turn into chains.

Then, he suddenly retreated, instantly creating distance between himself and An Xin, and then rushed towards the rusty shelf.

An Xin also realized his purpose. Instead of chasing after him, she gripped the black bow, conjured an arrow, and shot it at high speed toward the rusty shelf.
