After being reborn, I was turned into a slave girl by a princess.

--------------------

……

"call……"

Yi Cheng took a deep breath and snapped out of her reverie.

She opened her eyes and looked at the coffin-like instrument in front of her.

This thing is not simple. It can extract your consciousness, destroy your physical body, turn you into an ethereal being like an electronic ghost, and then grant you immortality.

Yes, immortality...

Theoretically speaking, there should be many immortal beings in this city, who should have existed for thousands of years and will continue to live there in the future.

But why couldn't I sense their presence just now?

Not only that,

That vast ocean of dimensions was also a void, as if no one had set foot there for a long time.

Although there were many stacks of data cabinets, they stood there coldly, without a trace of warmth.

"Hmm, we need to investigate more things later, but right now..."

Yi Cheng gritted her teeth and sat up from the coffin.

Immediately afterwards, a strange pain came from her left arm—Yi Cheng looked at her left arm, and the human body that had been there had disappeared.

Instead, robotic arms made of metal and synthetic carbon fiber have been installed.

As I watched, a strange light seemed to appear faintly on the robotic arm.

"Well, I can still move fairly freely. But my arm is probably equivalent to being amputated. I don't know if there's any chance of it recovering, but right now, I have to use this power..."

……

……

Yi Cheng opened her eyes. In the past, her eyes were very penetrating, able to see the movement of anything around her. Even when she focused intently on a point, she could notice the microorganisms climbing on it.

And what about now?

It seems that I can see more things now.

It's not just the things that "objectively" exist in this world.

She can even see those virtual substances made up of "electrons".

For example, if there is a mobile phone in front of Yicheng, it is equivalent to seeing an open book, where each page is an app, and the information involved is accurately printed on the page.

……

"Is this the power of the previous era (technology)? It really does come from the same source as Hongyuan, and there's no sense of incongruity at all."

The girl took a deep breath and stood up from the coffin.

However, at the same time, exclamations of surprise came from outside:

"Senior Yicheng, are you really alright? I heard you making sounds of pain just now."

"Yes, it's alright. The modifications are complete."

"Uh?"

“Let’s go to the control room. I should have a way to stop these mechanical bees now.”

The orange-haired girl wiped the sweat from her forehead and walked stiffly toward the door.

Chapter 77 City of Heroes

"Senior Yicheng, your arm!!"

Lonnie was stunned when she saw Yicheng stumble out of the operating room.

However, the orange-haired girl did not feel any pain. She simply shook her head and said calmly, "It's just a small matter, Lonnies. We need to go to the control center now and try to stop the guard robots' attack."

"Uh?"

"It seems you've been through a lot on your journey, but I need to go somewhere first. I'll explain later."

……

……

Senior Yicheng's expression was calm, showing no trace of pain.

The girl walked forward calmly, and after a short while along the underground passage, another swarm of mechanical bees appeared at the end of her vision—there were dozens of them, and they looked so densely packed that they seemed capable of swallowing a person whole!

however……

"Dispel mode activated."

"This is?!"

A pale purple light suddenly appeared on Yi Cheng's robotic arm.

These mechanical bees, like headless flies disturbed by the disturbance, all changed direction and moved on.

"Let's get through here quickly while we can!"

"Ok!"

……

……

After Yicheng's interference, the mechanical bees were no longer an obstacle, and the girls followed in Yicheng's footsteps, moving forward all the way.

As the girl ventured deeper, the surrounding decor clearly changed style, and Lian Lan's body trembled involuntarily, her eyes revealing a hint of shock.

Others may not know what's going on with Lian Lan, but Lonnies, who is also a hero, knows all too well what Lian Lan is feeling right now!

because……

Although his resurrected final resting place was almost completely abandoned: the ceiling and floor were in ruins, all the light bulbs were broken, and only the faint light of the emergency lights remained.

However, if we could put everything back together, turn back time, and restore everything to its perfect state...

The layout and decor of that End of the World are exactly the same as what I see here!

and……

“Lonnies, I’ve been here before.”

"what?"

"Although the memory is from a very long time ago, I have indeed been here. It must have been when I was just born, and I knew nothing about this world."

Lianlan stared blankly at the scene before her, as if she were recalling the time when she crawled out of the cultivation room naked.

The newborn's limbs were very uncoordinated, and it took her a lot of effort to slowly crawl across the connecting corridor and through the passageway to find a way out.

And what happened after that...

Lianlan covered her head, looking like she was in great pain.

"Me, ahhh!!"

"Miss Lianlan, are you alright?"

"No, I'm fine, it's just..."

Yi Cheng patted her shoulder reassuringly and said, "It's okay. If you can't remember, you don't need to think about it. As we grow up, we will always forget some things."

"Uh……"

"This is part of growing up. Just like as we grow up, we can't always run around like children."

"Yes, thank you."

Lian Lan took a deep breath, her expression softening slightly: "However, I can confirm that I am the hero born from here, but I can't remember what I did here before."

"Miss Lianlan..."

……

Looking at Lianlan's expression, Lonnies fell into deep thought. In a daze, she suddenly remembered several details she had not paid attention to.

The robots attacked him and Lianlan after they had treated Luo Zhisheng... Before that, no matter how Lianlan and he dealt with things in the city, they had not been attacked.

Is this a coincidence?

Or is it that the city considers itself and Lianlan as "one of its own" and will not exclude them?

……

Of course, Lonnies also remembered that she had once been a hero who challenged the terrifying demon king, saved the kingdom from danger, and was admired by the king and nobles.

But all of that happened in a dream.

Although the scenes in dreams are relatively realistic and easy to replicate, they also have drawbacks... For example, since Lornish woke up, she has forgotten many memories.

I've only been resurrected for less than half a year, right? Thinking back to that experience feels like a lifetime ago; I can barely remember it anymore.

Although girls' bodies are not as strong as boys', even if Lonnie were to regain her hero's body, her swordsmanship would definitely be much worse.

and so……

Could this city be a place where beings like myself from the previous era could live?

Because so much time has passed, the physical body cannot withstand the erosion of time. So, if one were to live in this place, it would actually be possible to obtain a doll's body and engage in realistic role-playing?

Although those NPCs look simple, since they no longer have physical bodies, their minds can be slightly hypnotized and they can perceive those puppets as living characters.

Just like...

It's like living in an outdoor Eden.

No need to eat, no need to use the restroom, no need to work, no need to sleep. You can do whatever you want...

This kind of life is like a game; it's just too wonderful.
