From star abyss

"First of all, congratulations on your return, dear Li Aozi."

N4 didn't take the blacksmith's hostility seriously. Instead, she smiled and walked towards her step by step. She raised her hand, applauded and praised:

"How does the body of the void feel? With the power of Yota level (9), it can destroy the continent in a rage, and with all its strength, it can shatter the entire planet - of course, the premise is that the upper limit of the planet cannot reach Yota , will let you destroy it."

The blacksmith said nothing and stared at the other person indifferently.

"Don't worry, haven't you noticed that the scientists haven't come to see you?"

N4 smiled. Judging from this expression, it showed that she had already settled the people at the Fermi Institute.

In his previous life - at least in the memory of Li Ozi's previous life, N4 was a [Biochemist] who had no moral principles and was solely dedicated to the pursuit of knowledge.

She doesn't care about material comfort, her only motivation is to acquire and practice new knowledge and skills.

Therefore, Li Ozi's judgment of her is a machine. If it can be controlled well, it can benefit one party. If she is allowed to do whatever she wants, it will lead to various tragedies.

"Master Leoz, do you know this woman?"

Polina quietly stood up on her tiptoes, leaned into his ear and whispered:

"This guy's body is so strange. I look at her with these see-through eyes, but I can't find where her soul is!"

"Of course you can't see her soul, because this guy is a clone."

"Colonial clothing? What is that?"

"It can be understood as a flesh-and-blood machine, a biological tool cultivated from cells. [Biochemists] are like this. They don't show their own bodies and rely on various reproductive costumes to deal with different situations."

The blacksmith subconsciously explained it, then suddenly realized something was wrong:

"You don't have to understand right away..."

"I probably understand a little bit, but it's really strange." Polena muttered: "She obviously has no soul, but she can still have such lively and interesting conversations...Uncle, I don't think she is a bad person."

"...That's not necessarily the case."

The blacksmith looked ahead indifferently.

It's obvious...the current arcane battle royale is the result of letting N4 go.

She has no moral standards and just pursues fresh knowledge blindly. If the void is useful to her, N4 will join the void. If Li Aozi provides her with knowledge, she will protect Li Aozi's career on the Blue Star, even at the expense of sacrifice. The interests of his own heavy industry.

"What's wrong? Dear Li Aozi." N4 spread his hands: "We haven't seen each other for only five years. You won't forget how hard he worked to help you, right?"

"Master blacksmith..." Polena glanced at the blacksmith suspiciously.

"You participated in the Fermi Institute's plan, Ms. N4." The blacksmith said coldly: "You are one of the culprits that caused this child's friends to be forced to kill each other."

Polina's eyes immediately changed, she clenched her fists, and looked at N4 with vigilance.

"Don't say that, this is all for your own good." N4 cupped his cheek and said pitifully: "You also know that you have been infected for so long and there is no way to save it. If I don't give you Leo With this name, there is only one walking corpse left in this world, a puppet of the void."

"This is not the reason for you to use me and this child..."

"Then if I say this, how should you judge?"

N4 said calmly:

"Of course, I caused the casualties of some innocent people, but I also prevented the two of you from dying and becoming puppets of the void. One debt for another, how about we write it off and trade it again?"

The blacksmith looked coldly.

He slowly raised his hand, preparing to use gravity to tear the colonial suit apart. With the help of passive reverberation, he could damage the opponent's body enough.

"OK."

However, at this moment, Paulina spoke.

The blacksmith looked sideways, but Paulina kept a very calm attitude.

"Saving my life and the life of the master blacksmith... I don't deny what you said. Those people from the Fermi Institute did not come to chase us or recover these superpowers in us, and you stood in front of us and talked about it. Talking—it must be your fault.”

N4 was slightly surprised by Polina's calm speech. It seemed hard to believe that this was what a 15-year-old girl could say, but she still nodded:

"It's surprising. I didn't expect that your intelligence is pretty good. It's better than some stupid beauty who graduated from a technical secondary school."

"That's ridiculous. I have never gone to school. I am just a tutor."

Polina nodded and changed the topic:

"But one debt for one debt, I cannot accept it."

N4 put his hands on his hips, and his body gave off a slight sense of oppression from a superior. Paulina's eyes narrowed, and she instinctively became afraid.

Snapped.

Suddenly, a warm current surged into my heart, and the uncomfortable feeling of confronting N4 disappeared like ice and snow.

She tilted her head.

The blacksmith silently raised his hand and put it on the girl's shoulder. He didn't say a word, but like the blazing sun, it was impossible to ignore his presence.

"Master blacksmith..."

The blacksmith was an honest man and could not say inspiring words, so he could only say it lightly:

"You just say, if she doesn't accept it, I'll tear her apart."

The next moment, the blazing aura of Yota Order (9) swept across the earth instantly.

The ground cracked and the rock formations shook!

The scorching wind blew past N4's ears. This kind and gentle gesture showed the blacksmith's determination to send warm blessings to N4 on a physical level at any time.

N4's eyes flickered slightly. But a smile broke out immediately:

"Look what you said, Miss Paulina. With such a powerful knight guarding you, how can I dare to negotiate terms with you?"

As she spoke, she put one hand on her chest and looked magnanimous:

"Miss Paulina, since you think it's not enough to pay off the debt for killing your friend - then, is there anything else you want?"

"I'm a pragmatic person, and I won't say that I can't pay with your life - I only want two."

Paulina raised her hand and raised a finger:

"First point: return the bodies of several other friends."

"Change it. I can't do this. Fermi Institute has its own recycling mechanism. Their research on the void is beyond my understanding."

N4 said immediately.

Polina was not in a hurry, it seemed that all this was just what she wanted:

"Then, take us out of here safely and return to the village."

"That's no problem." N4 said calmly: "Do you have any other requirements?"

"Second, as long as you can accomplish this, the blacksmith and I will not make things difficult for you."

Paulina said swornly.

"oh?"

N4 glanced at the blacksmith and saw that he didn't respond, so he said:

"That's interesting - tell me what you want."

"The second point." Polina said matter-of-factly: "I want to completely destroy the Fermi Institute. Tell me, what should I do?"

N4 was slightly startled.

"Is this girl your daughter?"

She looked at the blacksmith and couldn't help but ask:

"Why do I feel...that this child looks more like 'you' than you do now?"

"Your Excellency Li Ozi."

I’m visiting relatives in the Northeast these days. I’ll double the update in the next few days.
