LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 562 Original Clan
"Fire!".
Under the charge of the robot army with full firepower, everything along the way was emptied, completely blasted into fine debris, and then ran over one after another, only stirring up bursts of dust like snowflakes.
Nothing can stop you.
As for the huge construction shed like a curtain, it had already been blown away and broken into pieces, revealing the deep pit inside.
The edges of the large hole are full of pits and traces of unfinished construction, and the main body is sealed layer by layer by circular alloy baffles hundreds of meters in diameter.
It's like a blast-proof door in a bank vault, except it's laid flat on the ground.
And underneath this is the switchboard's residence - Mount Sumeru.
The red-eyed soldiers were about to move, but they gradually calmed down under the comfort of the rebel commander.
A huge number of soul cores resonate with each other and can even directly affect the robot itself.
This point is similar to Chen Ze's law power, and it also saves him time.
"9527." 1111 led a group of officers to ask for instructions.
"The rest of the Que tribe should be hiding here, what should we do?"
"What should we do? Of course we rush in!" The officers were equally excited.
"Kill them all!"
"I'm going to blow the switchboard to smithereens!"
"You all die!".
"No rush." Chen Ze stretched out his mechanical arm and circled around the cover as if wandering.
The officers glared at the weak light without daring to interrupt.
Until.
Chen Ze, who was walking somewhere, picked up a certain part as if he had found a treasure.
To other robots, this is just an ordinary piece of debris.
But Chen Ze could sense with his divine nature that this was a strange-shaped robot that was classified among the missing tribe.
After spending a long time with these robots, Chen Ze has been able to identify this special fluctuation to distinguish between "dead and alive".
But ordinary robots do not have this kind of judgment, and it is difficult to distinguish whether there are similar strange-shaped robots lurking around them.
Therefore, after listening to Chen Ze's explanation, a group of soldiers gathered around.
The remains in his hand remained motionless.
So Robot A found out the rope arm, Robot B raised the particle cannon, and Robot C's body began to dance with electric arcs.
"Don't hurt me." The rotten part quickly shimmered and responded with distorted sound waves.
"I'm a victim too."
"Sure enough, it's the damned Que Clan!" The rebels were already particularly hostile to the Que Clan, and now they were naturally furious when they caught someone trying to get away with it.
"Tear it down!"
"No, watch me electrocute it into slag.".
While everyone was debating how to execute him, Chen Ze had already used the multi-functional air outlet at the end of the tentacle arm to blow out gentle airflow to clean off the debris stuck on the surface of the missing robot, revealing its almost intact body.
An old hexahedron Rubik's Cube with its own display screen and loudspeaker.
"Please do not use radio waves to ask me questions." Rubik's Cube emphasized in a buzzing electronic voice.
"My radio wave transceiver module cannot perform overly complicated operations."
Not only is the tone stiff, but the grammar of this Rubik's Cube is not as vivid as other robots.
On the contrary, it is closer to a robot in the traditional sense.
"What should I call you?" Chen Ze held it up and asked.
"Please call me CUBE-3, this is my name." Rubik's Cube replied,
"I'll answer any questions you have, I mean, to the best of my knowledge."
"So." Chen Ze raised the Rubik's Cube to a group of rebel officers who showed their fierce looks.
"Tell me why your appearance is different from theirs."
"I suggest you move me to a safe location first." Rubik's Cube replied.
Chen Ze didn't answer, but the rebels who formed a circle silently raised their weapons.
"Our races are different." Rubik's Cube changed his words.
It also seems to have quite flexible behavioral bottom lines.
"Who doesn't know!" A rebel took over the topic and yelled, holding up an alloy blade.
"Aren't you the damn Que Clan?!"
Chen Ze took it back in time.
Rubik's Cube also knew that he was repaying his kindness, and immediately said: "This is just news released to confuse others."
"Whole Clan, Que Clan, they are all the same type of machine."
"You are different." Chen Ze continued.
"Yes." The Rubik's Cube suddenly raised the decibel level and announced his family background.
"As you said, we and them are completely different in appearance and even more different in essence."
"We pretended to be missing members just to monitor them."
"In fact."
"We are the original tribe."
"Those of us members, no matter what model or appearance, are collectively called the original tribe."
"Because we are a more advanced race than them."
"How advanced is it?" Chen Ze really couldn't tell.
"Everywhere is high-end." Rubik's Cube added hurriedly,
"For example, we use sound waves to communicate."
"This is a symbol of dignity within our aboriginal tribe."
"That's why we selected you before, 9527."
"You, like us, possess this more advanced trait, but were mistaken for being incomplete by ignorant inferior robots."
"And you didn't disappoint us."
“Not like these low-level ones”
A group of rebels cast an unkind light.
Rubik's Cube stopped talking.
"Don't forget, I am Tianji." Chen Ze explained calmly,
"9527 has been wiped out long ago."
"That's not necessarily true." Before the rebels could say anything more, Rubik's Cube retorted,
"9527 is a person unanimously elected by the elders."
"I'm sure those old guys aren't that stupid."
"What is an elder?" the rebels asked one after another.
The Rubik's Cube kept saying shocking words, which extinguished their urge to crush it into dregs.
"Elder." Rubik's Cube paused.
"He is the decision-maker among our original tribe, serving beside the switchboard, conveying instructions for the switchboard, and managing everything in the base."
"." The robots were silent for a moment.
Although they think about going against the switchboard every day, this is the first time they have heard of such a secret.
"So." 1111 asked in a daze,
"You weird robots are the tools that the switchboard uses to rule us?"
"Otherwise, how do you think the radio waves sent out by the switchboard are relayed every day?" The Rubik's Cube glowed brightly, as if he rolled his eyes.
The robots became even more silent, and it was Chen Ze who had to step up to calm them down.
The distribution of forces within the base has become clear.
The switchboard camp includes the original tribe (various strange-shaped robots) and the missing tribe (all incomplete and damaged robots), all of which are currently missing.
You must know that Chen Ze encountered many aboriginal robots disguised as equipment or furnishings when he was visiting around the past two days, but now their whereabouts are a mystery.
The resistance camp is concise and clear, which is the current army.
"9527." 1111 stood up and expressed concern,
"Why did they give this place to us for nothing?"
"So many aborigines are missing, there must be a conspiracy."
"Will there be an ambush?" "Don't think so much." Chen Ze continued to stabilize the morale of the army.
"We just need to crush all the enemies standing in front of us."
"Magic CUBE-3."
"I can assume you're on our side?"
"I will provide you with all help." Rubik's Cube's tone suddenly became urgent.
"I just need you to bring me back to the switchboard."
The Rubik's Cube's identity among the original tribe is obviously not simple. Ordinary robots don't know so many secrets.
"Then how can you help us?"
"First." The Rubik's Cube began to move slowly on its own, and the six square walls were spliced and combined.
"I'll help you."
"Enter Mount Sumeru."
Although Rubik's Cube kept silent about why he stayed here, Chen Ze still focused on the overall situation and did not delve into it.
There is a depression in the center of the cover on the ground. After stuffing a slightly deformed Rubik's Cube into it, countless light spots emerge from the surface accompanied by a burst of strange radio waves.
Chen Ze touched slightly.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu——".
Countless soul corpses howled miserably.
"1111." Chen Ze said deliberately,
"Monitor closely."
"I know." 1111 activated the scanning module with all its strength and touched the light spot with its body.
"Nothing unusual. This should be the same thing as the light snow on the second floor."
"Is that called Guangxue?" Chen Ze answered.
"Yes." 1111 followed the light spots on the ground and gradually moved away.
"It's a wonder on the second floor. It's not harmful to us, it just penetrates into the wall and shines."
talking.
Countless light spots are like a two-dimensional flat firework. After exploding from the center of the cover, they spread out in all directions until they crossed the edge and penetrated into the crystal wall that served as the floor.
Then a dim fluorescent light lit up on the ground, soft and pleasant, making the room even more quiet.
The rebels were immersed in it and gradually calmed down.
Only the Rubik's Cube that returned to Chen Ze's hand made two clicks, as if he was escaping.
Having said that, after this change, the flat cover on the ground, which was obviously made of metal, not only became faintly translucent like a crystal, but also became much darker during the transformation.
"Get away." Rubik's Cube warned.
The robots standing on the cover dispersed.
As soon as people leave, they will see that the surface of the cover, which was originally without any gaps, suddenly becomes concave and convex, revealing a maze-like complex pattern.
Chen Ze took a closer look and saw that it looked like a knot in a sketch.
Then the texture changed again.
This time it looks like a lotus.
Then there are umbrellas, flasks, right-handed conches, and mirrors.
The rebels were in commotion.
Chen Ze raised questions upon seeing this.
"We have seen these patterns in the leader's book!" 1111 replied.
Without Chen Ze's urging, it further explained,
"The leader has a blue paper book and sometimes passes it around to us."
"I heard it is a relic of ancient humans. A lot of the knowledge our leader taught us came from above."
Within a few words, the cover changed into beads, wheels, goldfish, etc., until it settled into an extremely complex pattern.
"What is this?" 1111 expressed doubts. It had not seen this picture in the leader's book.
"This is Langjiu Wangdan." Chen Ze continued in a deep voice.
1111 is even more puzzled.
"Or called Ten Phases of Freedom." Chen Ze added casually, and beckoned a group of robots to move forward.
After settling on this pattern, an entrance was opened somewhere in the cover, with spar steps diagonally paved to the ground.
The slope of the tunnel is extremely steep, almost going straight into the ground. The inner walls are square and flat on the left and right, and the ceiling and floor are all steps.
The floor steps go all the way down from the entrance, and the ceiling steps go all the way up from the depth, which is exactly the opposite symmetry.
The entrance is neither narrow nor wide, just enough to accommodate a dozen robots traveling together.
Chen Ze stared at it for a while and then ordered to go deep into it.
So he himself took the lead. After adjusting their formation, the rebels used their elite to open the way. The rookies stayed behind and followed closely behind in a fat snake formation.
As countless light spots dispersed, there was no trace of light underground. Only the military formation marching straight in was like a cluster of flames that grew stronger and stronger, leaving blazing footprints along the way and eroding towards the darkness.
But not long after, the light path began to tremble.
Many robot soldiers occasionally lost their balance when going down the steps, and the sounds of collisions continued one after another.
This is not normal.
In terms of the crawler modules equipped with all robots, this gap is not a problem at all.
"9527." The following 1111 expressed this concern,
"Will the original tribe ambush us down there?"
"The environment here is a little unusual."
"It's abnormal." Chen Ze was not surprised.
"The gravity here should be said to be greater."
"Get everyone ready and slow down."
1111 should claim to be, conveying instructions behind you.
Then, like the tail of a cat that belongs to a different species than a cat, the long team swayed, passed instructions step by step, and corrected its pace.
The team moved on.
The front is still dark and full of messy spilled radio waves and isolated magnetic fields, which makes it extremely difficult for the robots to send and receive radio waves.
"Use sound waves to communicate." The Rubik's Cube in Chen Ze's hand reminded,
"This is the rule of Mount Sumeru."
Although communication is not a problem, the front has become a completely foggy blind spot.
The steps are endless, as if everyone is spiraling into the stomach and intestines of the giant beast.
"9527." Since coming down, 1111 has seemed particularly uneasy.
"Why did the radiation dose here suddenly drop so much?"
"Do you want to divide the troops?"
Chen Ze also noticed that although radio waves are everywhere here, the type of ionizing radiation that is truly harmful (short wavelength, high frequency, high energy) is pitifully small.
This type of radiation usually comes from space.
Although the abnormal reduction in radiation is a good thing, it also reveals something strange about it.
The bright light of 1111 followed closely and waited for the answer, but Chen Ze stopped without answering the question and stretched out his mechanical arm to touch the crystal steps.
"Do you think these steps are familiar?"
"Familiar?" 1111 followed the instructions suspiciously,
"No."
"It seems to be assembled together, here it is"
"Ah!" A scream suddenly broke in.
"This is the material I usually cut in the factory!" The robot that attracted a circle of attention continued,
"It's a little different. But I recognize it. Maybe it's been processed again."
Not only it, but also many robots recognized it after Chen Ze reminded it.
The steps under him and even the square and polished crystal walls around him are all due to the hard work of the robots.
However, when in the factory, the workers in the corresponding positions only saw the semi-finished products, and after completing their own processes, they would send the materials to other areas.
It is passed on layer by layer, and no one can tell where the fruits of their labor are used and for what purpose.
This was one of the reasons why the rebels were determined to revolt. (End of chapter)
