long night fire

"You don't care?"

Wu Meng shook his head, his figure gradually faded until it disappeared.

He left only one sentence:

"What doesn't kill them makes them stronger."

……

Before evening, Jiang Baimian and others returned to the cave passage.

With the help of the key information recorded in advance, they confirmed that their memory had not been modified, and that they had not been implanted with strange thinking, and then reminded each other to break the "protection" provided by Shang Jianyao.

"What does Wu Meng mean?" Long Yuehong wondered to himself.

Just as Jiang Baimian was about to answer, the light from the flashlight swept across several crates placed on the ground.

That's what they use for military exoskeletons and bionic smart armor.

It is not surprising that these boxes appear here, but there is another point that is strange.

Jiang Baimian looked around and said:

"Where's Old Ge?"

Gnawa didn't stay here.

Chapter 1 Saving Private Gnava

Hearing Jiang Baimian's words, Long Yuehong also looked around.

With the help of the flashlight, he found that this was not the place where he was separated from Gnawa.

In other words, the crate containing the military exoskeleton device and the box from which the bionic smart armor was taken out were supposed to be somewhere in the cave farther away, but now they have been moved forward by at least 300 meters.

So, Jiang Baimian didn't think about looking for Gnawa until he saw the box.

And as an intelligent robot whose devotion to duty is engraved into the chip, Gnava actually left his post without authorization and was not around!

"Old Ge! Lao Ge!" Shang Jianyao, who had put the "Six Sense Pearls" into the tactical backpack, shouted loudly.

His voice echoed in the cave, superimposed layer by layer, and the reverberation continued.

However, no one responded to him.

Shang Jianyao shouted again:

"Are you out of battery?"

"Old Ge has so many high-performance batteries, even if there is no supplement, it will definitely be fine for a week." Bai Chen denied Shang Jianyao's guess.

Shang Jian Yao asked distressedly:

"Then why did you say that you were abducted by a passing relic hunter?"

In his words, Gnava is like a weak, helpless, and easily lost child.

Bai Chen fell silent.

Against the yellowish light of the flashlight, her expression was quite dignified, as if she had already guessed something.

After a few seconds, Bai Chen spoke slowly and said:

"Will Lao Ge, will he enter the ruins and look for the secret laboratory?"

"No way?" Long Yuehong was so startled that she was about to jump up, "He doesn't need to take this risk, an intelligent robot like him has no power to resist Wu Meng at all!"

"We say the same thing." The honest Shang Jianyao retorted.

"Isn't that unclear before..." Long Yuehong replied in a low voice.

Wu Meng's performance before was still within the preventable and evasive range of the "Old Tune Group", but now, he showed a crushing strength advantage, even though he was still sealed.

This made Jiang Baimian have to feel that the sores and the awakened people at the "spiritual corridor" level are not like people from the same world.

Jiang Baimian cleared his throat to stop Shang Jianyao from continuing to talk.

She nodded lightly and said:

"I agree with Xiaobai's guess."

"But..." Long Yuehong still didn't quite believe that Gnava would enter Ruins No. 13 of the Wasteland so recklessly.

He is not Shang Jianyao!

Bai Chen understood his doubts, pursed her lips and said:

"Maybe the current Lao Ge is controlled by the 'source brain'."

"Why, how could it be?" Long Yuehong opened his eyes wide, "We didn't mention the secret laboratory, Aore's legacy, formatted 'Yuan Brain', etc., and tried our best not to provoke him, 'Yuan Brain' and A hundred and eight thousand miles away..."

There are no satellites in the sky as repeaters.

Bai Chen glanced at Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian, exhaled and said:

"It might have been 'Yuan Brain' who communicated with us about related issues before."

This...Long Yuehong seemed to be listening to a horror story.

Jiang Baimian nodded heavily:

"That's what I guessed too.

"Perhaps after we contacted Avia and conveyed the words left by Ao Lei, a 'personality' called 'source brain' gradually appeared in Lao Ge's core module, but he himself did not notice it, or although he did notice it , but was controlled.

"If this is the case, then during this period of time, the person communicating with us is sometimes Lao Ge, and sometimes the 'source brain'..."

"I can't feel it at all..." Long Yuehong recalled all the details after seeing Gnava again.

Hearing this, Jiang Baimian sighed and said:

"After all, it is the 'source brain'."

The source of all intelligent robots in "Mechanical Paradise".

Moreover, its "personality" is hidden in the Gnawa core module, and Gnawa itself operates according to the program.

Therefore, it is easy for "Source Brain" to simulate Gnawa's various reactions.

"After the split personality, there are indeed very few people who are as harmonious and lively as we are, united and friendly." Shang Jianyao was proud and sentimental at the same time.

Sentimental for Gnava.

The honest Shang Jianyao immediately refuted the speaker:

"Did you forget the gentleman blocking the door of the golden elevator?"

"Do you want to speak so yin and yang?" The cowardly but vicious Shang Jianyao was furious.

Jiang Baimian, who had returned the "Angel of Life" necklace to Shang Jianyao, raised his right hand and made a downward movement:

"Stop arguing, first check the traces on the ground to confirm Lao Ge's whereabouts."

As an intelligent robot, although alloy is used and part of the body exists in a skeleton structure, Gnava is still heavy and will inevitably leave "footprints" when walking.

After some inspections, the "Old Tuning Team" confirmed that Gnawa really walked towards the exit of the cave and entered Ruins No. 13 of the Wasteland.

After a brief silence, Long Yuehong raised a new question:

"Why did Lao Ge move these boxes forward, almost to the area near the door?"

Shang Jian Yao let out an "hey":

"The program is malfunctioning, the two 'personalities' are arguing."

In this regard, he has a lot of experience.

Bai Chen shook her head, thought it over and said:

"Perhaps Lao Ge hopes that when we encounter danger, when we return to the cave, we can wear the military exoskeleton device as soon as possible to improve the ability to fight against the enemy and run to evacuate."

So he moved the box forward a long way.

Shang Jian Yao was silent.

Jiang Baimian nodded lightly, agreeing with Bai Chen's conjecture:

"Normally, there is no need for this, because Lao Ge himself will meet us..."

And now, Gnawa himself entered the wasteland 13 ruins.

Without wasting time, Jiang Baimian suppressed his sigh, looked around and said:

"What's next?"

It is a manifestation of democracy to widely consult the opinions of the team members before making a decision.

Shang Jianyao replied without hesitation:

"Go get Lao Ge back!"

Bai Chen's expression stretched slightly:

"I don't want to give up every single companion."

She only said "I" and didn't say "we", which means that she does not force herself to represent other team members.

"En." Long Yuehong nodded first, and then raised a difficulty, "It's almost evening now."

The wasteland No. 13 ruins at night must be more dangerous!

"Anyway, the most dangerous Wu Meng won't deal with us, so what's there to be afraid of?" Seeing Yao talking, the reckless businessman seemed to be rushing towards the cave exit at any time.

"That's just part of Wu Meng..." Long Yuehong tried to argue.

What if Wu Meng went "crazy" intermittently?

The reckless merchant saw Yao sneered and said:

"Having that part of the drag is enough!

"This time we are well prepared to prevent the 'Aura of Stupidity', and strive to hold on for a while longer, and then we can look forward to friendly troops."

Jiang Baimian pondered and said:

"Actually, because Wu Meng was sealed, his ability to use it is obviously limited. As long as we don't give him the opportunity to modify the corresponding environment and transmit electromagnetic signals, we don't have to worry too much about encountering the situation in the afternoon.

"Of course, the premise is that he has no other way."

Having said that, Jiang Baimian sighed:

"It's a pity that we don't have electromagnetic bombs. Against this kind of enemy, it will definitely play a very important role."

Electromagnetic bombs are useless in the current gray soil, and few forces produce them. Those left over from the old world have passed their "shelf life" or been used up, and now they can only be obtained from "orange companies".

The "Old Tune Group" has been in the "First City" for so long, with the backing of "Pangaea" and the channel of "United Industries", but they have never met anyone who sells electromagnetic bombs.

However, the high-voltage current stored in Jiang Baimian's biological prosthesis has been exhausted, and it will take some time to recover.

Without saying a word, Shang Jian Yao squatted down, opened the crate containing the military exoskeleton device, and let the light of the flashlight shine into it.

Soon, he made a gratifying voice:

"Lao Ge left us some high-performance batteries.

"In addition to what we already have, we can get a simple discharge device, which may be of great use at critical moments."

Bionic smart armor also needs high-performance batteries, but they don't consume much, and one piece can last for a long time.

Jiang Baimian nodded:

"Okay, you and Xiaohong will do it."

She had already expressed her attitude by saying this, but after a pause, she still spoke seriously:

"From evening to complete darkness, there are about two hours left. We can't just watch our companions fall into danger and leave on our own."

Clap, clap, Shang Jianyao clapped his hands.

he said impassively.

"If you don't even save your own companions, how can you save all mankind?"

You don't need to be so tall, and you don't need to represent everyone... Jiang Baimian sneered, and then said:

"This time you can put on the military exoskeleton device, take a little risk, and bet that Wu Meng won't really 'go crazy'."
