Chapter 25: Do I have a hobby of picking up junk?
The desert, moistened by rain, has lost its initial heat, but those mechanical life forms are still wandering around, patrolling their own territory.
Xia Yu was wearing simple casual clothes and carrying his backpack as he walked in this desolate desert.
If he wasn't surrounded by desert, he could have been mistaken for a tourist.
Popola and Divara protected him one in front and one behind. Although he emphasized that there was no need to be so nervous, the twins said with certainty that the surroundings were very dangerous and they had to be extremely vigilant.
The twins didn't want to be so nervous, but since a certain human was acting so defenseless, they had no choice but to do this in order to ensure Xia Yu's safety.
There are no buildings in the desert that can confirm directions, but the Gemini system has a built-in map, so there is no need to worry about getting lost. After thinking about it, the Gemini decided to go to the forest at the end of the desert first.
There are large animals that can be used as food in the forest, as well as pure water sources. In order for humans to survive safely, they have taken every aspect into consideration.
Hiking through the desert is a tedious process and there are no shortcuts.
The twins were already used to long walks, and Xia Yu had just strengthened his physique, so none of the three felt very tired.
Having said that, facing the fragile Creator, Gemini still slowed down their pace as much as possible. If Xia Yu hadn't emphasized that he didn't need to rest, Gemini would even have planned to take a break after walking for ten minutes.
After all, it didn't make sense that the fragile Creator had just woken up and suddenly had to walk across the desert.
"careful!"
On the way forward, Popola in the front suddenly stretched out her hand to block and drew out her weapon. Divara in the back also went into alert state and protected Xia Yu who needed protection.
The next moment, Xia Yu also noticed the hidden mechanical life form. He did not have the signal perception of an artificial human, and mechanical life forms did not have so-called souls and spirits, so he was half a beat slower.
“Clang clang…”
The sound of mechanical friction came from behind the sand dunes, and a team of patrolling small short-legged creatures suddenly appeared. In addition, there were even several small two-legged creatures.
The small biped has a more delicate body than the small short-legged one. Although it still looks like a clockwork toy, its strength should not be underestimated.
"Divara, protect the master!"
The moment the voice fell, Boppola disappeared in a flash, and the next moment, the small short-legged creature in the front had been split in half by her sword.
In front of a mechanical life form with a toy-like body, Popola, who has a delicate human structure, is obviously more suitable for fighting, even though she is not an artificial humanoid that specializes in combat.
The gorgeous battle was like a gymnast dancing. In just a few flashes, the small short legs were completely destroyed .
Those small two-legged creatures only reacted at this moment. They opened their chests, and black and red energy bullets poured out instantly. They also waved their mechanical arms to attack.
But Popola dodged the slow-moving bullets with just a few jumps, and rushed forward with the sword in hand.
Occasionally, a bullet could not be avoided and was split in two by the sharp sword blade, turning into dissipated energy and disappearing into the air.
“Swish!”
Popola came to the front of the small two-legged body and slashed it with a sword. The alloy body was easily cut in half, and the transparent synthetic liquid spilled all over the ground. The eyes on the round head that were glowing red did not want to be extinguished.
A battle that could not really be called a battle ended in just one or two minutes. Popola, who stood there with her sword put away, breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she did not encounter any difficult large bipeds, otherwise the battle would not have been as one-sided as just now.
"Great fight, very good."
Xia Yu walked forward while clapping. Hearing Xia Yu's praise, Boppola's simulated heart was pounding. It was an indescribable emotion. She felt as if her system seemed to be a little stuck.
Fortunately, humans did not continue to praise her, otherwise Popola would feel that she also needed to cool down like Divara. Humans seem to call this cooling method Steam Queen?
Xia Yu looked at the remains of mechanical life forms all over the ground, thought for a while, and decided not to waste them.
As a hamster player, he doesn't want to let go even of the wreckage. Send it to AI Xia Yu. With the other party's technology, he should be able to develop corresponding energy weapons.
While thinking about it, Xia Yu took off his backpack. The function of this backpack was reflected at this moment. He could send things out through red envelopes by covering them with things in them.
When Xia Yu was putting the wreckage into his backpack, the twins wanted to come over to help, but Xia Yu just waved his hand and told them to wait by the side.
As Xia Yu collected the debris one by one into his backpack, the twins' expressions changed from helplessness and indulgence at the beginning to astonishment.
Popola, Divara: Σ(⊙д⊙)
Bobo La: Where are the debris? Why didn't the backpack get bigger? Why are humans so indifferent?
Divara: I don’t know either. Humans are so skilled. Are we just too ignorant?
Popola and Divara: They are indeed human beings!
After an eye contact, the twins gave up thinking. As expected of human beings, they once again did something that they could not understand at all .
"Take it and call it a day!"
When the last mechanical chip was put away, Xia Yu took a deep breath. He felt that he had never been so refreshed. Could it be that he also had a hobby of picking up junk?
No, no, no, Xia Yu quickly rejected this idea. This was not scavenging. He just didn't want the valuable recyclables to be thrown away casually...
Isn't this still picking up junk?
Xia Yu covered his forehead helplessly, forget it, just pick up the rubbish, at least this rubbish is not dirty.
"Leave."
Glancing at the twins who were still standing there in a daze , Xia Yu shouted casually. The dazed twins woke up with a start and quickly followed him, but their eyes still glanced at Xia Yu's backpack from time to time.
Not long after they walked, the three encountered another group of mechanical life forms. This time, there were large bipedal creatures among the mechanical life forms.
It was a mechanical life form that was twice as large as the average small bipedal creature, and its level of sophistication was greatly enhanced. It not only had joints and fingers, but also had a special long-handled axe weapon in its hands.
The moment they saw the large biped, the twins' faces gradually became serious. Although it was not impossible to solve the problem, it would take a lot of time.
But the next moment, the twins were no longer worried, because an artificial human suddenly appeared along with these mechanical life forms and launched an attack on these machines.
Although I don’t know why this android is so badly damaged, it is obviously a combat type and its combat power is much stronger than theirs.
The white-haired android who suddenly appeared was so powerful that it almost crushed these mechanical life forms. With every strike of the sword, a mechanical life form exploded on the spot.
In less than a minute, the team of mechanical life forms that seemed troublesome to the twins had been easily dealt with by the white-haired android.
After killing all the mechanical life forms, A2 glanced at the three people he had never seen before and planned to leave.
She is an Avenger and doesn't want to get too involved with other people.
"Wait." Seeing the combat android about to leave, Popola became anxious. This android was much stronger than them and could definitely protect humans better.
"We need you to help us escort the human master!"
A2, who was about to leave, suddenly paused, turned around and looked at Bobo La, saying in disbelief: "Human!"
"That's right." Popola breathed a sigh of relief. With this combat-type android, they no longer had to worry about the safety of humans all the time.
Seeing that A2 was still in disbelief, Divara stepped forward and said, "This is the human master. We need to go..."
“Swish!”
Before she could finish her words, a sword energy suddenly flew past Divara, aiming at Xia Yu who was behind her.
“Human!!”
A2 gnashed his teeth and his eyes were filled with love and hate, pain and loneliness.
