Chapter 185 Mechanical Life
Cambsley's military camp was set up on the plains and wilderness of the Mithril duct. As soon as they approached the duct, they were intercepted by mechanical guards who suddenly emerged.
The Mechanical Guard is a constituent golem about 4 meters tall. The exquisite magic circle is wrapped in the shell and painted very evenly. It flashes with an amber luster in the sunlight. Elements visible to the naked eye flow like blood on the circuit. Yang Hai heard that every constituent golem of Kambushley was made purely by hand, which seems to be true.
"Probably half-lings are too short, so they have a special liking for such a big bodyguard." Yang Hai speculated maliciously.
"The defense protocol has been activated." The mechanical sound came from the golem's chest: "Discover the invader! Invader, present the certificate immediately, otherwise the clearance protocol will be initiated within 10 seconds."
Ricardo showed off the pass badge given to them by the Kambsley military.
Blue light shot out from the eyes of the golem, shining on the pass badge.
"Proofreading is in progress - there are no abnormalities in proofreading, and the defense agreement is terminated." said the mechanical voice of the craftsman who constructed the golem without emotion: "Please pass."
After saying that, the eyes that were constructing the golem dimmed, their limbs retracted into their torso, and the elemental magic on the circuit also lost its luster. In just a moment, the golem turned into an inconspicuous big stone on the side of the road.
"Ah!" Ricardo was also surprised: "I haven't returned to Cambsley for a long time, and the Energy Council's natural disguise project has been successful!"
"Can we beat golem?" Kakulucia whispered to Yang Hai.
"I can't beat it." Yang Hai said firmly: "This is the pride of the Energy Council. The Tower of Babel H combat-type golem. The 90-level rare mutant elite has 80% reduction in all damage. It has an immune spell control effect, comes with a magnetic field, and the laser turret can also summon small golem. The only flaw is that its intelligence is low. We are not enough to be cut by others when we stack it together."
"The Energy Council's Golem is so powerful, why do you still have to help us?" said Kakulucia.
"No matter how powerful the robot is, it is not intelligent and cannot cope with complex situations. Halfling itself is a poor and weak combat race." Yang Hai felt that it was natural for the Energy Council to sit on wax. "If mechanical products can overcome the weakness of no intelligence, then Halfling engineers would have ruled the continent long ago. So I am very interested in Harrison's ability to create intelligent mechanical life."
"Do you think the rumors here may be true?" Kakulucia asked.
"How is that possible?" Yang Hai scoffed: "If a big engineer in the Energy Council can create mechanical life, I will broadcast live on the league to eat keyboards. Alchemy and engineering are completely opposite disciplines. Alchemy can do everything except alchemy; engineering can only do everything within the scope of engineering. Mechanical life is not reliable. Even if machinery really has life, it can only be done by alchemy."
Along the way, they passed three levels and questioned countless golems, and finally entered the military barracks of Kambusle.
Kambusle's army opened everyone's eyes. If they hadn't known this was a military camp, they would have thought it was a factory. The halfling's military camp was built underground, the ground was hollowed out for three floors, and the well-connected railway tracks extended underground. More than a dozen robots with different functions were working enthusiastically.
Some are transporting ore, some are repairing parts, some are conducting safety inspections, some are loading weapons, and Yang Hai even saw the supervisor robot inside.
"The supervisor robot..." Yang Hai was speechless. He asked Ricardo: "Can robots be lazy too?"
Ricardo smiled bitterly, his beard turned purple: "Don't ask me, don't ask me, the world has changed too fast, and it has been more than a year since I left. I no longer know Kambushre."
While they were talking, a sweaty energy council engineer holding a wrench said dissatisfiedly: "Isn't it all Harrison's fault? He did some tests and said he wanted to give life and feelings to the machinery. Now that Harrison has succeeded, the big men in the Energy Council have copied Harrison's previous achievements on my robot, which has forced me to be a group of special supervisor robots."
"What a trick?" Ricca was curious.
"It is an emotional matrix, invented by Master Harrison. After loading, the robot will be lazy." The engineer said with a black head. "Master Harrison believes that if you want robots to have emotions, you must first make them have as shortcomings as humans."
"Are you a Harrison admirer?" Yang Hai asked sensitively.
"Of course. Who is not a admirer of Master Harrison!" The engineer's attitude was beyond everyone's expectations: "Master Harrison is a truly great engineer, but I signed a contract and could only work for the group of people in the Energy Council."
On the other side, a sharp explosion suddenly sounded, and the engineer muttered angrily: "Damn it, the steam valve is cracked again. Damn it!" Then, carrying the tool kit, waving the wrench, and trotted away.
"Even his own engineers are admirers of enemy leaders, ha?" Mecca said lazily: "I understand why Kambusley is so anxious."
Ricardo's expression was a little awkward.
"I suddenly had a premonition." Kakuluchia said to Yang Hai with a smile: "You seem to be going live to eat the keyboard."
Yang Hai's face turned red.
"It's impossible for mechanic life." Yang Hai said angrily: "Don't talk about live broadcast eating keyboards, if he really creates mechanical life through engineering methods, I'll cut the dick on the live broadcast!"
"Then forget it." Kakulucia said with a chuckle: "You should keep that thing useful, so don't cut it."
"You girl." Yang Hai kicked over.
--------
Walking through one underground passage after another, winding like a maze, they saw General Statham in the command center on the third floor of the underground. Statham has the meaning of a giant in the halfling language, and General Statham is indeed much stronger than ordinary halflings.
"Oh, he is as tall as you." Kakulucia teased Mecca.
The teased dwarf warrior didn't know what to say for a moment, so he had to stare at Kakuluchia fiercely.
When the purple-robed mage pulled Mecca away, Yang Hai vaguely heard Mecca muttering: "Damn it, if you are my soldier..."
General Statham's voice was low and gentle. To the standard of halfling, this was rough and generous. Along the way, he was used to listening to the emotionally unsatisfactory mechanical sounds and the sharp voice unique to halflings, General Statham's voice was surprisingly pleasant.
"Ha! Riccardo, my old guy, I thought you would never come back." Statham didn't care about the others. Instead, he jumped over and gave the Death Knight a hug.
Everyone's attention immediately focused - mission!
Ricardo is a very powerful NPC, and this kind of NPC must have super missions. Yang Hai also listened intently. Even if he had no other ideas at this time, it was not a bad thing to listen to the pre-task. Maybe some anecdotes will directly increase the skill level of his erudites. Since he began to travel to the mainland, Yang Hai's erudites' skills have improved by leaps and bounds. A lot of knowledge has grown from listening to NPC chats in the tavern.
"I betrayed my oath to the Holy Light and chose to fall, old friend." Riccardo smiled faintly: "But this does not mean that I no longer love this land that gave birth to me - the dead are emotional. No matter what the Energy Council did wrong, Harrison was too much."
In order to gain transcendent power, the Death Knight abandoned his life and existed in the form of a dead soul. They belonged to the Dark Sword and were among the rare undead on the continent who were recognized and not sanctioned. Everyone immediately began to think about the stories that had happened to him based on Ricardo's words.
"But it is undeniable that Harrison succeeded." Statham's face was exhausted, the thin wrinkles on the corners of his eyes were trembling, and his beard was hanging listlessly: "He really created mechanical life. I have seen those soldiers on the battlefield with their own eyes. They have their own emotions like real lives, wailing because of injuries, retreating because of fear... Fighting for mission. Ricardo. We were wrong, the Energy Council was wrong. We once thought that the mechanical army that would not be tired, hungry, and fear was invincible, but Harrison proved that flesh and blood army was the most powerful. The ridiculous thing was that the undead had proved this. The undead army without emotions and ignorance had never truly governed the world, but we still made the same mistake."
Yang Hai saw Kakulucia whispering to him, and the lip shape looked like a "live broadcast dick cut".
"I feel that these are useless." Riccardo whispered: "I am now a deacon of the Mercenary Guild, and I am going to fulfill my mission. Mr. POSEIDON may determine the location of the secret arsenal through the captive enemy golems. I need you to take me to see those golems."
"No captives, Ricardo." Statham sighed, "The golems placed self-destruction agreements when they were created, and when they were defeated, they would self-destruct, and even fragments would not be left behind. If I could study, I would not be as helpless as I am now. After the war began, we had been defeated for two hundred miles, and then there was the arc river beach, and we could no longer retreat. Ricardo, I can only count on you and your people to give me an idea, and I have no choice."
"If those golems really have life," Statham's adjutant suddenly said: "Then isn't the self-destruction agreement placed in the placement equivalent to murder? Harrison is committing a crime!"
"You may be right, young man." The ghost fire in Ricardo's eyes flashed, and his beard changed drastically: "But if we did nothing, he would not be punished for everything he did."
"I want to go around the battlefield myself." Yang Hai said to Kakulucia. "This matter exudes a strange feeling. Self-destruction agreement is a common procedure for golems, but I always feel that Harrison is covering up something."
Kakulucia laughed and said, "You'd better find something, otherwise you'll have to broadcast live-"
"Get out!" Yang Hai said angrily: "Take shadow potion and cat eye drops, the battlefield of halflings is very dangerous. The mission is not much time left for us, so we have to set off quickly."
