Diary of the Improper Monster Girl Transformation

Ding.

The moment he heard the sound, a surging sense of crisis exploded in Herbert's heart.

He didn't bother to explain, nor did he worry about being exposed, and tried his best to warn Sophia.

"Run!"

Run!

! ! !

Although Sophia didn't understand Herbert's nervousness, she still took action at the first time reflexively.

The four hooves kicked hard, and then jumped into the sky!

As soon as she jumped up, Sophia immediately realized that something was wrong.

"Not good!"

In a hurry, she had no time to choose other positions, and could only expose herself and the two of them to the sight of the construction robot.

But at the same time, the next moment they were exposed...

Swish--

A red laser fell silently to the place where they were just now, melting a bottomless hole there.

! ! !

"What kind of spell is that! ! ?"

At that moment, Sophia didn't feel any mana fluctuations at all.

But judging from the damage suffered by the ground, if the light falls on her, the power will definitely hit her hard!

"What on earth is it..."

There was no time to think, the calm was soon broken, a heavy roar came from afar, and the earth shook.

Sophia looked up and saw that the robot contaminated by flesh and blood had stood up and was slowly walking towards them.

The metal shell of the chest was entangled by hideous flesh and blood, and the blood vessels were still wriggling, as if they had their own life.

The mechanical eyes inlaid with magic crystals flashed with emotionless cold light, and the heavy body made the ground sink a little with every step.

It seemed that the robot realized that it was slow, and did not continue to chase, but stood still and raised its right arm.

The hole on the arm flashed a dangerous red light.

What is that... No, I can't keep waiting like this!

Without Herbert's order, Sophia's fighting instinct engraved in the depths of her soul had already commanded her body to respond.

Her tall and strong horse body had tense muscles, while her upper body showed an extremely calm and resolute demeanor, with her eyes fixed on the robot in front.

She drew her bow and arrow in an instant, and the spiritual arrow was wrapped with dazzling light, shooting towards the constructed robot.

The arrow did not pierce the air with a sharp whistle like ordinary arrows, but passed through the space silently and extremely quickly.

Whoosh!

At the same time, she did not shoot one arrow, but a series of arrows!

Just before the robot's palm ejected a hot energy beam, Sophia shot three arrows in succession in this extreme time.

And these three arrows were aimed at different positions.

Forehead, chest, and the muzzle of the arm.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The first spiritual arrow and the energy beam met in the air first, bursting out a strong shock wave, and exploded with a "boom".

The strong shock wave made Sophia couldn't help but retreat two meters, while the heavy robot stood firmly in place.

But it was not easy at this time.

The second arrow followed closely, and had already pierced the gem on its forehead before the shock wave arrived!

The arrow was so fast that the robot could only turn its head and had no time to react. The arrow pierced the gem on its forehead that was emitting a faint blue light.

Swish.

Then, a crack appeared on the gem, and it burst open like a broken spider web.

Crack!

The robot's body immediately reacted to the break and trembled violently, as if the internal system had suffered a serious impact.

Crack, crack, crack...

The most fatal one was the third arrow that did not arrive at the same time as the first two arrows, but deliberately lagged behind by half a beat.

Its target was the robot's chest - where its energy core was!

"Go to hell!"

The arrow pierced straight into the chest with an indomitable momentum, like the sickle of the god of death, fiercely stabbing into the robot's chest.

But in an instant, something unexpected happened.

The flesh and blood on the robot's chest actually reacted first, attacking before the arrow arrived and intercepting the arrow halfway.

The flesh and blood stretched out a muscle fiber-like tentacle, wrapped the arrow directly and broke it, and then merged it into the body.

"What!?"

Sophia's originally confident expression froze, looking at the flesh and blood that easily swallowed her spiritual arrow in disbelief.

"How is this possible?"

How could her soul arrow be swallowed so easily!

In other words, as if confirming Sophia's thoughts, the flesh and blood seemed to have triggered some kind of weird chain reaction.

Buzz...

A powerful energy quickly gathered in the robot's body, and then exploded without any warning.

The explosion was so powerful that it generated a powerful impact force that spread all around, and the surrounding environment was swept by the impact force.

A large amount of smoke and dust rose into the air, and the smoke and dust quickly spread like a huge black wave, covering everything around.

Boom!

A huge roar sounded, like a heavy giant smashing hard on the ground.

Sophia was stunned for a moment as she looked at the scene in front of her, and then slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, it's my victory!"

Although the robot was unexpectedly powerful and its attack method was very tricky, it was not her opponent!

Humph.

Only three arrows are enough!

The three arrows Sophia shot were not shot without thinking. She carefully considered a lot at that moment.

The first arrow was to offset the beam, the second arrow was to attract attention, and the third arrow was the real killer.

And now, although the process was a little different from what she imagined, the result remained unchanged.

It fell!

She raised her head in the smoke and dust, and her heroic figure looked even more heroic against the backdrop of the surrounding environment.

Just when Sophia wanted to ask her master for praise, she heard the master's scolding.

"Idiot! What are you waiting for!?"

At this time, too much happened, and Herbert, who finally had time to speak, couldn't help but roar:

"Keep running!"

Damn it!

Don't you understand such a simple truth that there is smoke and no injury! ! ?

Run?

This time, because of her confidence in her own strength, Sophia did not immediately follow Herbert's instructions, and turned her head to look at her master in confusion.

Didn't I win...

Just as Sophia thought so, she saw Herbert rushing towards her.

Pressing her head down hard.

Swish--

The next moment, the red light brushed against her hair and the back of Herbert's hand from above.

"Cough!"

Herbert groaned, and looked at the back of his hand that had melted a centimeter thick, and couldn't help grinning.

Tsk.

I almost left a hand here.

But fortunately, it's now in the soul state, and the origin has not been damaged. As long as I have a good rest, I can recover soon.

However, Herbert didn't care, but Sophia couldn't accept such a thing.

My Lord is injured.

My Lord, injured!

"..."

She looked at this scene with great self-blame, and her heart was full of guilt and anger for her negligence.

I didn't protect my master well.

Anger and guilt burned in her heart, her eyes turned red in an instant, and she turned her head and stared at the robot that reappeared in the smoke.

Although it was seriously injured and had a big hole in its chest, it did not lose its fighting ability and slowly climbed up from the ground.

It wanted to attack Sofia again, but raised its hand and fired nothing.

Such a powerful attack is not unlimited, and it also has to pay a considerable price.

It's that robot!

Destroy it!

Destroy it!!!

Sofia's heart was filled with a desperate impulse to fight to the death with this robot.

The horse's hooves kept digging the ground, and the weapon in his hand was clenched. Even if it risked his life, he would completely destroy this enemy who brought harm to my Lord!

Kill it!

"Sophia!"

But just when Sofia's desire to fight was overwhelmed, Herbert pulled her hard and shouted in her ear: "Don't be impulsive! Go!"

Go! ?

How can I go now?

"But! You're injured! I..."

Sophia turned her head, unable to control her emotions, and glared at Herbert who was trying to stop her from taking revenge.

She was completely mad now, and she couldn't tell the situation clearly.

No one can stop me from taking revenge for my Lord!

Not even my Lord!

Sophia was mad, but Herbert was very calm, staring at her and said, "I'm not discussing this with you, this is an order! Go!"

After hearing these cold words, Sophia's body shook and she woke up immediately.

She finally realized what she was doing just now.

"Me!?"

How could he be so derelict in his duty.

My Lord must be extremely disappointed in me now.

"...Yes!"

Sophia didn't bother to check the status of the robot anymore, and immediately turned around and ran towards the escape route that had been prepared long ago.

Perhaps because of the shame, Sophia ran with all her strength, and her speed was much faster than before.

On her horse, Herbert turned his head and looked back at the huge smoke, squinting his eyes and staring at the robot that was looming in it.

Although he tried his best to ask Sophia to leave, on the one hand, it was because there was no chance of winning.

On the other hand, the robot was in a particularly bad state.

Sophia didn't notice it just now, but Herbert saw a detail clearly.

Just when the robot wanted to chase after being severely injured, the flesh and blood spreading on its chest suddenly blocked its action.

Its state was very wrong.

Those flesh and blood were very strange, as if another will was controlling them.

Compared with the flesh and blood born from the robot itself, it was more like it had suffered some special pollution, affecting its will.

Symbiosis?

No, more like... parasitism?

Just when Herbert thought about this, a faint voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

"...Please!"

Who was speaking?

"Please--"

It was not an emotionless mechanical sound, but a mixture of dozens or even hundreds of men, women, young and old, and the shrill pleading of men and women.

Their wailing sounds overlapped and echoed in Herbert's ears.

Herbert widened his eyes and stared at the robot that knelt heavily on the spot, and many thoughts flashed through his mind.

Save you?

"Please——"

The voice touched the softness in his heart, and he couldn't help wanting to cry for their tragic experience.

"..."

As for the weirdness at the moment, Herbert finally just frowned, and then resolutely retracted his gaze.

He even patted Sophia and ordered: "Sophia, run faster."

There are dirty things here, it is not suitable to stay for a long time.

Slip away.

"Yes!"

He glanced back at the smoke and dust that had been left behind, and shook his head slightly.

Herbert thought he was not a ruthless person. For those who needed help, he was willing to lend a hand in most cases when he had spare power.

But the situation just now obviously did not meet his requirements-he was not spared at the moment, and the other party was not necessarily innocent.

"Nenasha, you heard the sound just now, right?"

["Yes, I heard it. The soul fluctuation did come from that constructed life form."]

Constructed life form.

In this world, constructed life is a special existence.

They are usually life forms created by the combination of magic and machinery, with various forms and functions.

From simple stone puppets to extremely complex magic creations.

Strictly speaking, the Holy Grail carrying the wine of oblivion is also a living creature, which is included in the category of constructed life forms.

The creation of constructed life forms usually requires powerful magical power and some extremely rigorous professional knowledge.

Creators will need to collect specific materials, such as metals, gems, magic items, etc.

After the materials are prepared and assembled, they also need to cast specific spells and spells to give them life and consciousness.

Such spells and spells are very rare, and are the most valued trump cards of every spellcaster who can make constructed life, and will not be easily passed on to others.

This also caused the price of constructed life forms to remain high, becoming a very popular high-priced item.

It is under such circumstances that some evil beings have created another cheap and quick way to get it.

According to their method, most people can save the step of soul giving and easily create constructed life forms.

Or, we can change to a simpler and easier to understand name - wetware.

"There is also wetware in this world."

Unlike a world with four vendors, the wetware here does not rely on artificial brains and other physical tissues.

Instead, it relies on another power - the soul.

Artificial souls are rare, but aren't the souls of intelligent creatures everywhere?

Why go far away?

Powerful spellcasters will imprison the souls of intelligent creatures in special gems and seal them in constructed life forms, making them its souls.

In order to maintain wisdom, their consciousness is not completely cleared, but deliberately preserved.

Those imprisoned souls will execute the orders of their masters day after day, and can only watch their bodies move without making any changes.

There is no doubt that this method was considered an extremely cruel and evil act by the justice camp as soon as it was born, and it was immediately listed as a forbidden technique.

But because people's demand for constructed life forms remains high, many spellcasters in the evil and neutral camps always make them secretly.

Even people in the justice camp would buy such cheap constructed life forms.

Anyway, I didn't kill him, nor did I extract his soul, let alone seal him in.

I bought him to help him free, so as to prevent them from falling into the hands of those evil people!

Anyway, it's easy to deceive yourself.

There are as many reasons as you want to convince yourself, as long as they can get over that hurdle in their hearts, it's not a problem.

Because of the general trend, the situation gradually changed, and people gradually relaxed the restrictions on this kind of soul wetware.

Although it is still not presentable, it is no longer banned.

Now it is assumed that all the souls used are extremely evil people, and sealing them in constructed life is also to let them atone for their sins.

This is also one of the reasons why Herbert is not sure whether the other party is innocent.

Sophia's arrow broke the gem on the robot's forehead. Does this mean that those poor souls have been liberated?

If so, why do they still want Herbert to rescue them?

And if not... why should Herbert save them?

He had no reason to risk his life for souls that he could not determine to be enemies or friends.

In addition, the robot was full of weirdness.

Although the construct did not show any magical fluctuations, Herbert felt an extremely strong sense of crisis.

"Nenasha doesn't know how it attacks... Is it pure energy?"

Before launching the attack, there was no magical fluctuation on the robot.

Compared with the activated construct on the magic side, it looked more like a machine that moved purely on the mechanical structure.

But the energy it used was beyond Herbert's cognition.

"It can't be the source of fire..."

In the end, what aspect of development did the destroyed civilization focus on?

Herbert shook his head after thinking seriously. The knowledge he had at hand was not enough to continue to support his idea.

"After returning to the monastery, we will go to the caretaker to get more relevant information."

And what Herbert feared most was the "filthy flesh and blood" on the robot.

What does it mean to the robot?

Where do they come from?

Is it the corruption of some existence? Or a curse?

"..."

Herbert thought silently, and Sophia, who thought she had made a mistake, did not dare to disturb him, and silently took him all the way back to Elda.

This time they chose another road, climbed over the towering mountains, and did not encounter the heavy knight spirit again.

It took a lot of time to explore, but the return journey was several times faster.

Just when they were not far from Elda, Nenasha broke the silence and asked:

["Herbert, have you looked at the three wreckage owners and decided which one to start with?"]

"Which one are you asking..."

Herbert also came back to his senses, blinked and thought for a while, and said helplessly: "Those guys are not easy to deal with."
