Wasteland Echoer

When the heavy machinery completely covered Luo Nie's last piece of human skin, from this moment on, he lost the [personality] that he had barely acquired through pain under the arrangement of fate, and returned to the mechanical body.

Fortunately, losing [personality] does not mean losing "humanity". Even in the Zine Empire, Luo Nie, a mechanical body, did not have much with other humans except for the nuances of emotion and relatively excessive rationality. the difference.

Green and purple green and plant-based magic energy hovered around Luo Nie, forming a nearly transparent vortex, and continuously emitted harmless and fragmented laser light outwards.

The "Light of the Mechanical Spirit" "ejected" from the rune engraved with the "Simple Figure Nut" pattern on his chest, shining directly at "Plamini's Sorrow", briefly suppressing the ugly and dirty look. A disgusting, rotten body.

The power of the plant-based magic source combined with the exclusive power of the "machine body", coupled with the hymn chanted by Luo Nie to praise the "Lord of Machinery", made his body continue to expand slowly and continuously.

"In that backpack..." Luo Nie stretched out his mechanical arm, pointed backwards, and said in a mechanically stiff, emotionless, almost ethereal voice, but still retaining the softness and rhythm of human beings:

"Inside... is your 'Crazy Bear Pistol'. I know, that is the first weapon you... opened your eyes and woke up to this world, saw... it has already been injected into you. The soul...it is its destiny to fight with you."

"'Crazy Bear'... pistol?" Wright stretched out his only arm that had recovered from the numbness, opened his military backpack, and took out the "Crazy Bear" pistol that he was all too familiar with.

Although this pistol is not the most advanced piece of technology in the Zine Empire, nor is it a symbol of high-level identity and status. The paint on its surface has already peeled off in many places, and there is slight rust at the joints of the parts, but this is The first weapon Wright encountered when he came to this world was also the only weapon he commonly used.

If the "Resurrection God" hadn't forcibly taken him away after the "Fire of Punishment" came in the Silent Highlands, perhaps he would have been able to take this weapon and go north to Crusted to find his destiny and the wasteland world. answers, and ways to save the world.

After struggling to put the "Crazy Bear" pistol into the holster that had been empty for thirty years at his waist, Luo Nie continued to make a "mechanical voice" that was increasingly not his, let alone human, and said:

"There is another key in here...it is called the 'Eternal Red Key'. It originally belonged to Varvaf, a lost man in the 'Wilderness Tourist Group' who experienced tragedy throughout his life. However, it was stolen by a dog named Naha. Card obtained by the Cruze de Blue Cat.

"The owner of that blue cat is called Lorca, and he is the successor of the leader of the 'Chaos Group', Ice Blade. Unfortunately, due to wrong rituals and arrogant purposes, the entire 'Chaos Group' ushered in disaster. A The 'alien monsters' who were forcibly awakened by them and expected to become 'controlled lethal weapons' reversely controlled the entire organization. Now, all members, including Lorca, have become puppets shrouded in dark matter."

"Who is that...'alien monster'?" Wright asked, feeling deeply uneasy about this "alien monster" in his heart.

"I don't know." Luo Nie shook his head, and there was a "sizzling" sound from the mechanical friction in his neck. "I only know that before Luo Ka completely lost consciousness, he cut open his chest and took out the The azure mechanical heart belonged to the Lost One, and I entrusted Nahaka to return it to its original owner. Later, after experiencing a series of "coincidences arranged by the creator", it came into my hands.

"I think that the real owner of this 'Eternal Red Key' should be you. You are the 'only [Order]' in this era, and this key not only opens the door to this 'red fantasy ruins' The key to the door to the deepest realm is your promotion tool."

At this moment, Luo Nie's body has grown to a height of nearly 12 meters under the influence of the power of the "mechanical body" and the power of the grass-type magic source, which is almost three-quarters of the height of the standing "Plamini's Sorrow" .

His body has completely become a mechanical body. Although his body retains the general outline of a human being, all his skin has turned into a silvery-white mechanical shell, and all his joints have turned into bolts intertwined with red and white paint.

Luo Nie's head doesn't seem to have grown much, but his limbs are extremely strong, reflecting the beauty of the power of the perfect combination of machinery and human body. Although the appearance of this robot still has a trace of weirdness due to the "uncanny valley" effect, the pair of The sapphire eyes emitting light blue light made everything a little gentler.

In fact, perhaps Luo Nie didn't notice that his body at this moment was no different from his "Machine Spirit" image in "Grey Dream".

"There is...another...item." Luo Nie felt the rapid loss of part of human cognition after the complete disappearance of [personality]. He forcibly maintained the last part of human consciousness, and finally said:

"That's a wooden box. I...I forgot where I got it. I only remember...that the long-banned organization had named it...but failed to get it...its The sequence is 'MB-2024', and people call it...'The Box of Hades'..."

"'The Box of Hades'?" Wright endured the tearing pain that gradually spread throughout his body, and reached out to dig out the wooden box named "The Box of Hades."

In his eyes, this was just an extremely common wooden box made of oak that could be found everywhere in the Cruz area. It was no different in weight from an ordinary wooden box.

Wright shook the wooden box slightly with his blood-stained right hand, and there seemed to be nothing special inside.

"This... 'Hades's Box' is an item left behind by a lost person in the camp of the 'Wilderness Tourist Group'... after his death. His name... may have been erased by the 'remaining power of the Creator', but this ordinal monster..." Luo Nie paused for a few seconds, enduring the severe pain caused by the silver barrel drilling out of his back, and explained in a mechanical voice:

"There is a lady in the 'Chaos Group' named 'Lei Ye'. Because she has the means to resist Atuo's mental control, she was knocked unconscious by her companions and imprisoned at the bottom of the 'Old Mine'. Fortunately, the owner and the machine protected her, and the 'Wilderness Tourist Group' saved her.

"It was she, 'Lei Ye', who told me all the information about the wooden box, and also told me that Aidari Sage once said, 'When the footsteps of [Order] echo in the frozen world, Hades will guide the chosen one out of confusion and difficulties. '"

"Wright..." As he spoke, Luo Nie felt as if a red-hot iron sheet was stuffed into his throat, constantly "cutting" and "burning" his vocal cords.

In a few seconds, his voice quickly changed from mechanical and ethereal to hoarse. Finally, as his vocal cords and brain completely restored their original "mechanical" state along with his body, he could no longer utter even a single word or note.

Woo...

The whistle that symbolized the return of the soul came from Wright's chest. Wright, who had slightly recovered some mobility, crawled from his half-body to the ground. He stood up from the state of crawling on the ground and looked up.

He found that Luo Nie's body had expanded to about 30 meters, and when he stood upright, he was just a little taller than "Pramini's Sorrow" in the "Rust Stage".

Luo Nie, who was highly consistent with the image of "Mechanical Spirit", raised his arms, and the ripples brought by the diffusion of countless light energy gathered in his brain and neck in the opposite direction, forming circles of pure white energy, which were transmitted to his arms, forming two lightsabers with a sense of the future and science fiction that seemed to have never existed in this world.

"Is this...'Light of Mechanical Spirit'?" Although Light had never really heard of the term "Light of Mechanical Spirit", now, the professional ability of [Orderer], the red magic source power, and the "fate" obtained by [God of Love] Natasha's divination made Luo Nie's part of the memory captured by the magic source power belonging to Deepser in Light's body, and integrated with his own cognition.

"'Lover'... Why... does the word lover exist in Luo Nie's memory? "Wright read the memory of Luo Nie in his mind and said to himself:

"The number 6 in the tarot card, 'Lovers', this... turned out to be the second conclusion Natasha got when she divined for Luo Nie. Could it be that if Ivant fulfilled his duties as the crown prince of the Rinie Empire and the future emperor of the empire from a normal person's perspective, instead of being deceived by a group of scientists and the Lost... 'The Fire of Heaven' would not be activated, and the Creator would arrange for Luo Nie and me to go north together, to Cruzde to adventure and find the truth of the wasteland world.

"'Lover' should be the true destiny of me and this mechanical guy, but Ivant betrayed the Lord and the gods, and was punished with blood and fire. And Luo Nie... replaced the machine that was supposed to sleep in the 'Silent Highlands' and belonged to Ivan XXII, and completed the battle between 'machines'...?"

Before Wright finished speaking, Luo Nie walked in front of "Pramini's Sorrow" with heavy and huge steps. The lightsaber formed by the "Light of the Mechanical Spirit" was inserted directly into the rusty body of the monster with a huge mechanical hum.

Crack!

What Wright's Luo Nie didn't expect was that the lightsaber actually broke in the body of "Pramini's Sorrow". The "Light of the Mechanical Spirit" between Luo Nie's arms quickly ran out of energy under the action of the extreme "Ancient Power" and dimmed.

At this moment, Wright suddenly remembered the "only way" to defeat "Pramini's Sorrow" that the "future" that had been erased from existence told him. He endured the numbness and pain that remained in his body, half sat up with the support of the wooden box, and shouted in a half-sharp, half-hoarse voice: "Luo Nie! Cut off its limbs!" In fact, the power of "Pramini's Sorrow" comes from the ground of the entire "Red Fantasy Ruins", which explains why the Lord of Eternal Red disappeared quickly after being knocked away by Wright. Because without the power of "ancient", everything that is completely corroded in the "Red Fantasy Ruins" will not be able to maintain its existence. When the sun's light really shines on a group of dark, rotten, and smelly underground creatures, they often lose moisture immediately, wither, and die, turning into a pile of worthless powder. Humans, however, possess the "humanity", "spirituality" and "divinity" bestowed by the Creator when he first awakened, and thus have the possibility to freely travel between the "darkness" and "light" realms. Humans who have lost their [personality] and "humanity" and transformed into monsters will be lost in the long night and perish in the light.

After receiving Wright's reminder, Luo Nie decisively gave up using the power of "Mechanical Spirit Light". His body was suppressed by the "ancient power" and could not use more magic power.

So, after a mechanical roar in his chest, Luo Nie actually overturned the furry body of "Pramini's Sorrow" with brute force, holding down the ugly body with one hand and using the other hand to forcefully pry open the four limbs that were exposed and could no longer be hidden.

Snap! Snap! Snap! Snap!

Luo Nie's brute force shocked Wright. Without any extraordinary power, Luo Nie really relied on the pure power of the mechanical body to break the limbs that were previously made of different materials but were now uniformly covered by the machine.

"Ah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Pramini's Sorrow"'s vocal cords made sharp, non-human calls and cries. It seemed that this monster wanted to use such messy, sharp, and uncoordinated notes to disturb the spirits of the people present and make a final struggle.

Unfortunately, Luo Nie is a "mechanical body", and Wright's spirit will not be disturbed by any force. The last struggle of "Pramini's Sorrow" is just a wishful nonsense before destruction.

With four limbs broken, the body of "Pramini's Sorrow" instantly revealed an opening. The fragile heart, like a ball, was easily taken out by Luo Nie and crushed. The splashing red liquid scattered all over the ground like milk, bringing a little bit of beautiful embellishment of survival and hope to the entire yellow earth land illuminated by light.

However, the body of Luo Nie, a mechanical body stained with blood, began to deteriorate rapidly like the body of "Pramini's Sorrow".

His mechanical shell began to become a highly crisp existence like rice crust, and the silver-white parts of his body turned into a rotten state of dark brown and black. His sapphire-like eyes finally turned into the same black thing as Wright, and the nuts connecting the mechanical joints degenerated into loose and deformed mud.

With an evil smell, the mechanical body Luo Nie collapsed with a bang, just like the long-withered "Pramini's Sorrow", it disintegrated and turned into a pile of fragmented scraps.

"The loyal fire of hell abandons the weak gods, and the future of [Order] awakens among the ice... The old mecha creates a new world, and the surviving beasts pursue the groans of the dragons." Wright murmured:

"Luo Nie, you finally returned to the embrace of the master of machinery at this moment when the sun shines in the long night... right." (End of this chapter)
