Love letters are not allowed in the exorcism notebook!-Chapter 1036 - 103 What Demand Are You Trying to Express
"The Council has authorized me to awaken the Defender. If you continue to resist stubbornly, it can only end in certain death."
The most annoying thing about the Intelligent Mechanic is that it completely disregards the loss of troops, as all casualties are just a simple number in its mind.
It can even chat with you while fighting.
This is already the twelfth factory Wang Yunxiao has destroyed. Judging from the products on the production line, it seems to be some kind of precision equipment.
Anyway, I don’t know what it is, but just demolish it.
This is different from last time at Fusang. The Fusang Empire is booming and in a period of rising national power, with abundant manpower and resources. Even if you sink two of its warships, it won’t solve much.
Avalon is different here. They have abolished their own martial arts skills, and now only have this shelter left.
You better have researched nuclear fusion technology, or else I will make you suffer greatly this time!
"What is the Defender? Is it a new model of robot?"
Wang Yunxiao leaned against the wall, panting to regain his strength while chatting idly.
"If you have this advanced stuff, why didn’t you use it from the start? Is it because it’s expensive?"
"Your perspective is quite unique."
"Just tell me, is the cost very high?"
"Yes."
"So, my perspective isn’t wrong."
Wang Yunxiao pointed to his own head: "Having good stuff and not using it, the only possibility is that the usage cost exceeds the return benefit. This is the simple thinking of normal people, something a machine brain like yours can’t comprehend."
"I can comprehend."
Mercury Angel softly said: "According to my calculations, the Yuan-Qi Furnace of this Heavenly Armor has a maximum remaining lifespan of no more than twelve minutes after two overloads. The Defender will arrive at the scene in five minutes, by which time your stamina will also approach its limit."
"For you, the most advantageous choice is to stop and recover your strength, which will increase your chances of winning by at least two percent. Meanwhile, Professor Maxwell, the Supreme Council’s science advisor, wishes to speak with you."
Wang Yunxiao sneered: "I’m not acquainted with him, what’s there to talk about."
"You can talk about the matter of sneaking into the professor’s office to steal intelligence."
"You really know."
"Professor Maxwell’s office has always had students visiting, and the professor believes this helps cultivate students’ pioneering spirit, so he doesn’t require me to report everything to him. However, after Su Ya Cavendish broke in, I reported the record of your three unexpected guests visiting to the professor. The professor is curious why you are interested in his latest research results."
"After all, his research results involve extremely complex and advanced frontier scientific theories, even his students may not necessarily understand."
"Alright, let’s chat then."
Wang Yunxiao had to admit the opponent’s judgment was correct, he indeed needs to rest now to face the incoming powerful enemy in a better state — whatever Defender, it sounds formidable.
Being forced to use the trump card in such a situation, surely someone will feel bad when it gets smashed?
At this moment, he was still at least fifteen hundred meters in a straight line from Avalon’s central control tower.
Three seconds later, Professor Maxwell’s voice sounded from the wreckage of Mercury Angel.
"Hello, outsider."
"I am not called outsider."
Wang Yunxiao replied in fluent English: "I am Wang Yunxiao, Chief of the Special Service Section under the Special Service Bureau of the Ming Country Government in Tianmen City. Your country’s government is suspected of colluding with Hell Demons to invade our territory, and we have retaliated justifiably."
The old professor was evidently unprepared for Wang Yunxiao to bluntly reveal his identity right away and present his stance so righteously.
This confused him.
He hadn’t figured out how to respond yet when someone beside him interjected: "Mr. Wang, the situation now is that you are invading our territory, causing severe damage and huge economic losses to our cities..."
"Yeah, so what?"
Wang Yunxiao coldly laughed: "I did it, I admit it. Where are you now? Are you on that tower? When I get there, I’ll chop all your heads off and make a Capital View. Do you know what a Capital View is? I can demonstrate it for you."
The person who interrupted also went silent.
"Since we can communicate, let’s have a proper talk."
The old professor hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Not considering those political issues, let’s be frank, this farcical event shouldn’t have happened today. What demands do you and the people behind you really want to express?"
I just mentioned my demands, didn’t I?
Wang Yunxiao shrugged: "You put down your weapons and hand Asmod over to me, then I can leave."
"Just for one demon?"
The old professor shook his head: "No, I don’t mean this. As far as I know, there’s someone claiming to be Professor Moriaty who played a significant role in today’s farce. If you have any way to contact him, please convey my inquiries to him. I’m here now, and I’m willing to listen to his demands."
I don’t know who the hell Moriaty is?
Looks like the old professor misunderstood this question.
No, his thinking is actually not wrong.
The motive behind the whole event is far more than just causing a commotion in Avalon.
If you’re neither seeking wealth nor amorousness, you must have some demands.
Why not ask your magic little moss?
Thinking of this, Wang Yunxiao suddenly had a thought.
The social deconstruction and Humanity Analysis from Scholarly Heresy rapidly processed in his mind.
His gaze towards Mercury Angel became meaningful.
"Professor, I have a question I want to ask you."
"Go ahead."
"What role do you think your supercomputer played in this incident?"
"Is it an absolutely obedient servant? A black hand pushing the fermentation of events? Or... an observer who wants to remain objectively neutral?"
The professor did not answer.
Wang Yunxiao laughed loudly; he knew the professor understood the implication of his words.
A sharp whistle came from the sky, the rooftop of the factory suddenly collapsed, and a metal giant over three meters high descended with lightning and thunder.
This is Avalon’s trump card, a combat robot named "Defender," incorporating many frontier technological achievements from the Imperial Academy of Sciences, specially designed to combat extraordinary enemies.
The moment the Defender landed, Wang Yunxiao didn’t hesitate, crashed through the wall behind him, and turned to flee.
A roaring large-caliber shell skimmed over his head, hitting the commercial building directly in front, the brightly neon-lit department store trembled slightly, and all the glass windows shattered and collapsed simultaneously.
You think I’m recovering my strength, but what I’m waiting for is this.
No matter how excellent the performance of the Heavenly Armor, lacking large-scale damage weaponry is an undisputed fact. With a spear in hand, how much damage can he cause to Avalon alone?
Now it’s different, the enemy actively brought the firepower here.
Who blows it is the same anyway?
