This trainer has no moral principles

The magic lizard Yihao used his hands to chop the tiles and fight against the sharp claws of the dendritic spiny worm. After forcibly blocking the impact, he grabbed the opponent at close range and used the Earth Throw.

The two mechas were only level 10, had no trainer to command them, no spell cards to support them, and no attribute advantage, so they were quickly torn into scrap metal by the Neonite and the Lizard.

This time, just as Youzhi had imagined, because it was "combat destruction", the elf's second characteristic was not triggered to summon more mecha monsters.

"Where is this place?"

Alyssa recovered. Although she was still a little dizzy, she was conscious. After a little observation, she found herself in a place that had nothing to do with Yuanzhu City.

Of course, she didn't scream and shout as if she was being kidnapped.

You Zhi explained the concept of singularity. After listening, Alyssa was silent for a while, and asked with a hint of curiosity: "So this is the legendary elf world?"

"You believe what I say, aren't you afraid of being deceived by me?"

"The concentration of spiritual energy here is extremely high, no less than the training tower in Kikyo City. If we weren't located at a spiritual vein node, then only the Elf Realm would meet the requirements." Alyssa rolled her eyes and explained, "I just think you like to lie, not that you're stupid. You said one plus one equals two, so do I have to question your truth?"

“That makes sense.”

“And…” Alyssa turned her head a little embarrassedly, curling her hair with her fingers, “And you saved me before, thank you… Anyway, it cancels out, no one owes anyone anything!”

"Although I don't feel like I owe you anything, let's just treat it this way."

Alyssa glared at You Zhi, but didn’t complain anymore. She asked about the business: “Do you know how we are going to get back?”

"Have you ever played video games, the role-playing kind?"

"My parents don't allow me to use electronic heroin, but I saw my brother secretly playing with it. What's wrong with that?"

"If you want to leave here, you have to complete the storyline like a video game."

Alyssa thought for a moment and asked, "So, we have to find the hero first, then help him gather his companions, defeat the enemies along the way, and finally destroy the Demon King before we can go back?"

You Zhidao: "In theory, we only need to do the last step, defeating the demon king, to complete the game. We can skip all the intermediate steps. However, finding the protagonist can help us better clarify the main storyline. After all, not all games end with defeating the demon king."

“Where are we going to find the protagonist?”

"Novice Village... Wait a minute, more enemies are coming, there are a lot of them, get ready for battle."

Chapter 60: Jade Beast

Not long after You Zhi gave the reminder, dozens of mechanical monster insects rushed over from all directions.

"You and I will each handle one side and protect each other's backs."

You Zhi ordered the Demon Lizard Yihao to evolve. After gaining the steel element, he could further improve his resistance, and then teamed up with the Neon Stone to stop the swarm of mechanical monsters.

"I see."

Alyssa pulled out the elf card from the void and successfully summoned the material dragon, which made her feel relieved. After all, the material dragon was left in the original world and was not teleported here with her. She was somewhat worried that she would not be able to summon it.

"Use Rock Slide!"

The material dragon mobilized its spiritual power and summoned a large number of stones, which it threw at the swarm of mechanical monsters and insects, successfully knocking them to the ground. However, they quickly got up without suffering any injuries and launched an attack again.

You Zhi suggested, "Don't use Rock-type moves against Steel-types, especially since their defense is generally high. It's hard to deal damage without using counter-attributes."

"I know without you teaching me that this is just a test, and the real counterattack will come next!"

Alyssa pulled another Pokémon card from the void and summoned a massive mammoth with a deep yellow gemstone on its forehead and four long tusks. She commanded, "Amber Mammoth, use Earthquake!"

The giant elephant raised its pair of front legs and slammed them to the ground, then sank its body forward. The earth suddenly shook violently, turning into shock waves that spread out along the ground.

Although the defense of the mecha bugs was very high, they were all two-star elves with very little health. They were first knocked to the ground and then hit by the shock wave, resulting in heavy casualties. Only the flying recipient bugs escaped.

Beast-Type, Effect: When a face-up "Gem Beast" monster you control is selected as an attack target, you can change the attack target to this card. If this card is destroyed in a Monster Card Zone, you can use it as a Continuous Spell Card in your Spell & Trap Card Zone face-up without sending it to the Graveyard.

The Amber Mammoth relied on its size advantage to charge forward recklessly, not taking the attacks of the Mecha Bug seriously at all. Every time it stomped on the ground to release a ground-based skill, it would defeat a large number of enemies.

After fighting for a while, Youzhi discovered that these mechas had regarded him and Alyssa as their targets, and had no interest in the four Pokémon fighting head-on. Unless it was absolutely necessary, they were too lazy to spend energy to attack, and only wanted to bypass the defense line and attack the trainers in the rear.

"What's the story behind this elf world? Is it the Omnic Crisis? Are intelligent robots going to kill all humans?"

The interception ability of the Neon Stone Spirit and the Qilizard Yihao is not as good as that of the Amber Mammoth, so it is inevitable that some fish will slip through the net. Taking into account the characteristics of the mechanical monster insect, You Zhi cannot do it himself, so he can only summon the "I I I" girl to protect him closely. He first knocks the enemy to the ground with a punch, and then the "I I I" girl finishes the enemy with a flaming fist.

After a fierce battle, all five elves were upgraded, and the girl even upgraded two levels, but the mechanical monster insects still continued to pour in.

Alyssa wiped the sweat from her forehead and suggested, “This will never end. How about we break out?”

You Zhi hesitated and said, "Wait a moment."

Alyssa said dissatisfiedly: "What are you waiting for? You were very decisive before, and you would launch a surprise attack as soon as you said it would. Why are you so indecisive now?"

"Wait for the protagonist. If these mechanical bugs are the villains in the background setting, we've caused such a big commotion that the protagonist will definitely notice us if he's nearby."

"This world doesn't seem small. How do you guarantee the protagonist is nearby?"

"From our previous encounter, it seems the singularity will teleport us to the protagonist's side. Although we only have one example so far, it's not enough to be strong evidence, but it doesn't hurt to try. If you can't hold on any longer, I can help share the pressure."

Alyssa said angrily, "Who said I couldn't hold on? I was worried that you didn't have enough spiritual power. It must be very difficult to maintain three elves at the same time. I am kind-hearted and generous. As long as you ask for help, I can let go of the past."

The two were bickering when there was a sudden commotion behind the monster bug.

After a while, three people and one dragon were seen charging through the swarm of mechanical monsters and insects with unstoppable force. They quickly reached the center and joined Youzhi and Alyssa.

The leader was a sword-wielding youth, wearing a crude suit of armor made from the parts of a Mecha-Bug. He panted, "This area has been marked. Mecha-Bugs will continue to drop down. If you don't want to be drained of your energy, get out of here quickly."

Psychokinetic Tribe, Description: A righteous young man armed with the wreckage of a mecha. Longing for the "Star Hero" of the ancient Star Forest, he agrees to the fairy Liz's request and embarks on a journey with his companions, gifted with light, to liberate the seven Star Relics. "Starlight Hero, raise your sword, gather light, and slash the great darkness."

You Zhi glanced at the information of the plug-in identification. Starlight Hero, the protagonist is definitely here!

The initial goal was achieved and there was no need to continue fighting. You Zhi nodded, then took back the girl and the neon stone spirit, and ordered Qi Xi Yihao to charge in front and force his way through.

Alyssa was no fool. As soon as she saw the situation, she knew that You Zhimeng was right. Even she had to admit that this team of three people and one dragon looked like a group of protagonists. She immediately ordered the Amber Mammoth to charge, repel the mechanical monsters that were trying to surround them on both sides, and open up a way to escape.

Needless to say, everyone worked together to break through, and the mechanical insects were completely unable to stop them and could only chase them from behind. But when they escaped five miles, these mechanical insects stopped chasing them.

Apparently, the marked area the sword-wielding boy had mentioned was real.

"Thank you all for your help." You Zhi expressed his gratitude.

"You're welcome. Anyone who fights against the mecha monsters is our ally." The sword-wielding boy smiled warmly.

Another young man, wearing a long scarf wrapped around his shoulders and holding a spear, showed a wary expression. "With your strength, you two should be able to break through even without our help. I just don't know why you're staying in the insect swarm?"

The last girl scolded, "Brother, don't treat them like criminals. They are our allies in the fight against the Mecha-Monsters."

The young man disagreed: "Humph, the machine monster is the enemy of mankind, but humans are not necessarily their allies."

The sword-wielding youth hurriedly tried to ease the atmosphere, saying, "I'm sorry, he just has a bad temper. Don't worry about it. My name is Oram, and these are my companions Eve and Ningirsu."

The blue dragon, resembling a puppy, barked in dissatisfaction. The sword-wielding boy quickly squatted down and stroked it: "Sorry, I almost forgot to introduce you to the reliable Imduk."

Chapter 61: The Heroic Protagonists

"My name is You Zhi, and this is my companion Alyssa. We are both from the outside world. Due to an accident, we accidentally entered a time and space vortex and traveled here. As a result, we were attacked by those mechanical insects as soon as we arrived."

Since he knew that the person opposite him was the protagonist of this world, and a standard brave protagonist, You Zhi did not hide anything and introduced his identity truthfully.

After hearing this, Alyssa couldn't help but look at him in surprise: Is it really okay to tell the other party that we are outsiders as soon as we meet?

As it turns out, there is indeed no problem.

The residents of the Elf World were not accustomed to outsiders, but they were certainly not unfamiliar with them. Even though the three brave warriors had never met one before, they had often heard of them from their elders' stories. So at this moment, they were just a little more curious and couldn't help but take a few more glances. The shock was nothing compared to that felt by Earthlings when they met aliens.

"So you're from the outside world? No wonder I've never seen you around here before." Eve, with her long blue hair and a staff in hand, readily accepted this explanation. "Judging from the battle just now, you're summoners, right? You fight by controlling your spirit pets."

You Zhi read the identification instructions of the plug-in and pointed at Xiaolong and said, "This is your tamed pet, right? From this perspective, you are also a summoner."

Upon hearing this, Eve smiled foolishly and said, "Haha, that seems to be true. However, I am a witch, a real witch. Although I mainly rely on Imduk in battle, I will use the barrier to protect everyone."

"Okay, Eve, there's no need to explain so clearly. After all, there's no evidence to prove their identities. Don't easily believe what strangers say."

Ningjiersu interrupted hurriedly, his vigilance towards Youzhi and Alyssa not decreasing at all, and even his hostility increased because of Youzhi and Eve's friendly conversation.

[Warrior Tribe, Description: A young man who battles the Mechas day and night.

Seeing his heroic presence always at the forefront inspires even the people of the forest, but he wields his spear only to protect his only sister.]

It turns out he's a sister complex, so You Zhi decided not to argue with him and instead asked about the background of this world.

Oram introduced it enthusiastically, and Eve added a few words from time to time. Although Ningirsu was still cautious, he did not stop him. Firstly, this kind of common sense did not need to be concealed, and secondly, this question was indeed in line with the identity of an outsider.

According to the two people's introduction, this elf world is ruled by seven mechanical life forms called the Knights of the Machine World. They create an endless army of mechanical monster insects to monitor the earth. These mechanical monster insects are not interested in ordinary people and specialize in attacking the strong in the villages and humans.

Therefore, people in this world usually build villages in forest valleys, using natural vegetation to cover up their traces to avoid being discovered by mechanical monsters, and the strong will also choose to live in seclusion and stay away from the world.

The situation in the village where Oram and the other two are located is better, because Eve, the witch, can summon a huge barrier to cover the village and shield it from the surveillance of the mechanical monster insects.

After listening to this, You Zhi asked in confusion, "It sounds like the Machine Knights are very unfriendly to humans, but why do they do this?"

Oram and the others looked at each other in bewilderment. They had never really thought about this question, because to them, it was just like a person falling to the ground after jumping up. It was common sense and a part of the laws of nature, and there was no reason for it.

"Maybe it's to maintain their dominance, fearing that humans will rise up and overthrow them." Oram said uncertainly.

"Then why do they want to rule the world? Do machine life forms also need pleasure and crave power?"

Ningirsu snorted coldly and said, "Perhaps there is no reason at all. It's simply because the people who created them input such logical instructions, and they are just following them."

You Zhi shook his head. "Even so, the question remains. Why would the people who created the Machine World Knights input such instructions?"

Oram frowned and thought for a moment, then speculated, "Hate humans?"

You Zhi flatly denied it: "Impossible, if it was out of hatred for humans, the Machine World Knight should have ordered the Machine Monster Bug to kill all humans they saw, instead of just targeting human villages and strong people. This is also what I find most contradictory.

"If they want to better rule the world, they should accept humans, promote the more vulnerable elites among them, and let humans enslave humans. This way, they can share hatred and exploit humans better.

"But they haven't accepted humans, nor have they exterminated them. What they do gives me the impression that they behave more like gardeners managing a garden. Once branches get too long and affect the beauty, they will be pruned."

Ningirsu disagreed: "So, the Machine World Knights have good intentions?"

You Zhidao said, "For the beauty of a garden, pruning branches and leaves is necessary, but for plants, it's not necessarily necessary. Whether it's a good intention depends on your perspective."

Oram said, "The answer to this question is probably only known by the creator of the Mecha Knights. Since we don't even know where the Mecha Knights are, there's no point in worrying about it."

"That's true."
