Start a core cabin

How long has it been since then?

Augis opened her eyes and looked at the night sky in front of her——this place is so magical, you can clearly see the stalactites above the underground cave, but the entire dome is shrouded in a shining starry sky, looking suddenly, it seems like the whole The city is shrouded in darkness.

The master has not come yet.

Thinking of this, Augis shook her head slightly. It's not that she never thought about asking Duanmuhuai's current location, but Augis still didn't take the initiative to contact Duanmuhuai in the end. After all, she also knew that this matter could not be rushed, no matter where the master was, Augis believed that he would definitely come to pick her up.

And what she can do now is to explore this place and provide as much information as possible for the master.

However, when Augis came to this city completely wrapped in darkness, she was still a little surprised.

What the hell is here.

Augis strolled on the street, looking to both sides. On both sides of the street, there were street lamps emitting faint lights, as well as gorgeous and elegant tall buildings, but there was no one in the whole city, and it looked as if the place was completely dead, without the slightest breath of life.

"Google!"

However, just as Augis walked to the first intersection, suddenly, a black shadow descended from the sky and landed in front of Augis——it was a strange metal liquid, it looked like silver The glutinous rice dumplings kept wriggling. And Augis stared at the glutinous rice dumpling in front of her, and slowly backed away. At the same time, she raised her right hand and stared at him vigilantly.

Immediately afterwards, under Augis' gaze, the metal ball in front of her eyes began to expand, twist, deform, elongate like a molten liquid, and gradually change into another form.

It was a girl with silver and white ponytails and a black dress—it was Augis herself.

"?"

Seeing this scene, Augis was obviously a little surprised, and the other party stared at her, then spoke slowly.

"Why are you here?"

"........."

Augis didn't speak. Although the voice of the 'Augis' on the opposite side was exactly the same as her own, it didn't mean that she was her, not to mention that Augis had witnessed the scene of her transformation with her own eyes, so she had already guessed it. This monster probably has the ability to imitate the appearance of others.

However, the other party didn't seem to care what Augis was thinking, she just continued talking on her own.

"You and your master got separated, so you came here, then, what do you want to get? Why did you come here?"

“……………………”

"It's very simple, because you were abandoned by the master."

"————— Swish!!"

As soon as the other party's voice fell, Augis's eyes were fixed, and at the same time, she flicked her right hand, and the shining silk thread quickly crossed, cutting the "self" in front of her into pieces. However, this move seemed to have no effect on her at all, and soon, the severed body was merged into one again, returning to its previous appearance.

"Why are you attacking me?"

"Because I'm angry."

"angry?"

Hearing Augis' answer, the other party tilted his head in doubt.

"Why do you, as a puppet, have such unnecessary feelings?"

"........."

This time, Augis was stunned for a moment, but did not answer.

"You're just a puppet, just like me."

The other party pointed to Augis, and then pointed to himself.

"Puppets have no emotion and do not need a soul. We are just props for the master. As long as the master needs us, we will fight for the master. If the master does not need us, then we are just objects that are thrown aside. Objects There is no need for self-awareness, let alone independent action. Obviously all you need is to wait quietly, why do you have to take such meaningless actions?"

"I...it's not like this!"

Augis gritted her teeth, and the other party's words made her feel a little anxious. Of course, she understood what the doll's duty was, but...

"Father created me so that I have a soul and a heart!"

"In other words, are you still acting like a puppet, following the orders of the creator?"

"Why?"

Hearing this, Augis was stunned for a moment. Immediately afterwards, deep in her heart, there was a strange feeling that made her shudder for no reason.

"No, I'm not... This is not an order from my lord father, this is my lord's expectation..."

"Expectation, hope, desire, in the final analysis, you just want the other party to do what you say. Isn't this the value of being ordered?"

"That's not the case! I myself want to long to understand human feelings! I have a soul too!"

Augis finally couldn't help shouting, that strange emotion seemed to have bound her heart at this moment, and it broke out in a torrent at this moment——even Augis herself, after shouting He was also taken aback, as if he didn't realize that he was still talking so loudly.

"Understanding human emotions? What's the point?"

However, "Ojis" on the opposite side still just tilted his head and stared at her suspiciously.

"You can't be human anyway, can you?"

"........."

The other party's words were like a long spear, piercing Augis's heart, her legs softened and she fell to her knees. Those ruthless words seemed to strip away the deepest secrets in Augis's heart, making her feel powerless all over her body, as if everything was out of order, and even the world in front of her eyes began to become dim————Yes , which is exactly fear.

However, even so, the words of "Ojis" in front of her still came into her ears clearly.

"You should understand that no matter how you imitate others, in the final analysis, you are just a puppet. You can't feel warmth, let alone pain. When other girls snuggle up to feel the warmth of their master, you can feel To what? To you, it's all meaningless performance, isn't it?"

"Shut up……"

"We are puppets, not humans."

"Ojis" took off her coat, revealing her inner body—it was made of wood, connected by joints, the body of a puppet.

"It's just a prop formed by the combination of organs, not life."

"Shut up………"

"Props should be like props, the pursuit of soul and life is completely putting the cart before the horse..."

"Shut up!!!"

Augis jumped up with a roar, and at the same time, the silk threads of the puppet in her hand began to intertwine and twist, forming a pair of weapons, including sharp blades and spears. The weapon that came out flashed past, and rushed towards the other self on the opposite side. However, at the moment when these weapons were about to pierce the enemy's body, they stopped involuntarily——until this moment, Augis realized that invisible silk threads stretched out from all directions, restraining her own weapons .

"You probably forgot, I am you too."

"Ojis" on the opposite side raised her head. There was no expression in her eyes, but it made Augis feel her heart tense. She hurriedly jumped up and jumped away. The next moment, the invisible sharp blade swept across the ground where Augis was originally standing, completely cutting the originally solid ground into pieces.

"Do you still remember Yan Wei? What is the difference between you and her now? Don't you know the end of the puppet who was swallowed by emotion, ran away, and finally destroyed?"

"I won't become like Yan Wei!"

Augustus manipulated the silk thread again, forming barriers in all directions around her, gritting her teeth while resisting the attack from the other side, and roared in a low voice.

"Really? Look at you now. What's the difference between you who lost your composure due to anger and fear, and Yan Wei? Once the master abandons you, you will only become another Yan Wei."

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

Although Augis wanted to refute, the words that emerged from her mouth were so weak.

If I had the same experience with Yanwei, would I also become like her?

After this question emerged from the depths of Augis's heart, she couldn't get rid of it immediately, haunting her like an invisible nightmare. This also made Aojisi move a beat slower. When she came back to her senses, a strong impact rushed towards her face, only to hear Aojisi grunt, and then flew out backwards. Her petite body slid across the street, and then fell directly into the abyss—and at this critical moment, Augis instinctively stretched out her hand and grabbed the gravel in front of her.

After that, he watched another 'Ojis' slowly walk in front of her, lowered his head and stared at her.

"Look, this is the weakness of emotions, if you are just a fighting machine, then you only need to think about how to beat me. But you don't, because of those redundant emotions, your judgment and reflexes are interfered , that’s why it ended up like this.”

"........."

Facing the words of her other self, Augis remained silent.

"How? What else do you have to say?"

"So that's how it is. This is...my idea."

Accompanied by these words, several cold lights flashed across the body of "another Augis", and then it was cut into pieces again, and then Augis jumped up and stood firmly on the ground again. Staring at himself who couldn't help squirming, twisted and condensed again.

"I've read in books that the person who understands the most and the least understands is often himself. I didn't understand the meaning of this sentence at first, thank you for teaching me a lesson."

As she spoke, Augis stretched out her hand and placed it on her chest.

"I see, being told the secret hidden in my heart, I would be so sad and angry. This feeling of tearing my heart and lungs is pain and sadness... Perhaps, I can finally understand what Yan Wei is like." I'm in the mood."

Having said this, Augis looked at the other party.

"Thank you, I've always wanted to talk to Yan Wei, but I feel that I don't understand her feelings and her real thoughts... As you said, props don't need emotions, even if I learn to own them Feelings, but I still can't understand why Yan Wei made such a choice... until I felt all this."

“………unintelligible.”

At this moment, the other woman opposite to Augis regained her original shape and stared at her.

"I can't understand why you can still be so calm at this time?"

"It's very simple."

As soon as the words fell, suddenly, Augis on the opposite side was suddenly pulled up, her body was suspended in the air, and Augis stretched out the five fingers of her right hand, and the silk threads emerged from the fingertips tightly wrapped around the enemy's body.

"As you said, although I have learned to have feelings, but... I am still a puppet."

Augis' eyes became cold and dull at this moment.

"For dolls, destroying the enemy is always the first priority."
