Laura's Beautiful Journey

The world outside the barrier is even more desolate than what Laura saw inside the barrier.

The location she was currently in was an unknown mountain range. The ground was glowing with a black energy, and the snow that should have been pure white turned out to be a weird pink color.

The moment she left the barrier, the space returned to normal. She took out three reconnaissance drones and released them. She connected them to the Rachel subroutine on her helmet and temporarily built a communication network.

"Scanning within a radius of two thousand meters has been completed, and no signs of life have been found."

"Nothing? Animals? Plants? Fungi? Bacteria? Viruses?"

"Second scan confirmation, none."

According to what Shou Lao said before, this planet was originally inhabited by native creatures. The ruling race was a humanoid species, and there were countless other kinds of creatures. It seemed that a lot of things had happened in the past thousand years.

"Keep searching at maximum power and keep up!"

After Laura gave the order, she first flew around the sealing barrier, but also found no signs of life.

"Old man, just wait inside. I will be back to rescue you soon."

Standing in front of the barrier and making another oath, Laura turned around and quickly flew away.

After flying non-stop at full speed for more than half an hour, the life detector was still blank, as if she was the only living person on the planet.

"Warning, there is an unknown weapon locked! It is recommended to avoid it immediately!"

The moment Laura heard the warning, she subconsciously stopped. At this moment, a thick light beam diagonally below struck one meter in front of her.

In fact, with her current physical strength, even if she is hit by a shot, she will not be able to break her defense, but a few somersaults are inevitable.

Laura suddenly lowered her body and rushed towards the firing point of the energy beam.

"What the hell is this?"

After dodging another attack, the true face of the attacker finally appeared in front of her.

It was a mechanical creature that looked a bit like a spider and a bit like a scorpion. The previous two attacks were emitted from its shimmering tail. In addition, it had six gleaming mechanical legs, and one near its head. The two kinetic weapons clearly indicate that it is an out-and-out killing machine.

Judging from the bulging snow around it and the broken snow on its body, it can be judged that this thing must have been sleeping under the thick layer of snow before, and it should have been activated again as Laura approached.

Originally feeling angry because of the sneak attack, she wanted to take it away with a heat vision, but then she thought that it was rare to encounter a moving thing, and she should be able to get some useful information from it, so Laura came from the space. Two battle axes were taken out.

The metal on this mechanical creation was about the same as the big thing Tony originally made, and it could not withstand the power of the artifact battle ax. Even though it had been greeting Laura with the most efficient attacks, she still chopped off six of them after two minutes. legs and removed all weapons and equipment from his body.

Looking at the sneak attacker who was cut into a big iron lump, Laura carried two axes and moved forward.

"Rachel, check the system of this thing to see if it is artificial intelligence, or mechanical intelligence, and whether it sends signals to the outside."

"After scanning, the machine identification number is DGD7079 'Stalker'. It has no autonomous intelligent unit and only a partial simple instruction set. The locked goal is to search and hunt all carbon-based organisms on the planet. It was uploaded for the last time and The time of data exchange was 8975 hours, 33 minutes and 51 seconds ago."

Laura stood there and thought for a while, and then she decided to let Rachel continue to decipher the secrets inside this guy, while she herself studied the various weapon parts that were removed.

The energy cannon used in the previous sneak attack on her was similar to Iron Man's palm beam cannon, but the type of energy used was something Laura had never seen before. The kinetic energy weapon in the weapon bay near the head was similar to the Gatling on Earth, but it The fired munition explodes and sprays a highly corrosive liquid.

Rachel also completely cracked the Stalker's firewall at this time and wiped out all the data stored inside it.

Laura looked at the analysis data sent back by Rachel, and her expression worsened as she looked at it.

This thing was indeed manufactured, and it was manufactured in batches. Based on the serial number on it, there were at least seven thousand of this type of ghost thing before it.

Even though Laura was just playing this guy just for fun, if a whole army of them swarmed up, let alone more than seven thousand, if there were hundreds of them, she would have to rely on her flying advantage to escape quickly.

After Rachel finished analyzing and storing the stalker's data, Laura split it in half with an axe.

A can of light green stuff was taken out from the part wrapped around its head. There was an engine-like device near the thing, so it seemed that the tank of liquid was its fuel.

Rachel quickly completed a preliminary analysis of this fuel, but the results presented shocked Laura.

“This thing is biofuel?!”

She couldn't help but be surprised. In this way, she had a bold and terrifying guess as to the reason why she had not found any creatures nearby - they were all "eaten" by this thing and their companions!

So, Laura asked Rachel to record the signal characteristics of this guy, and then teamed up with three unmanned reconnaissance aircraft to start a large-scale scan.

An hour later, Rachel completed the biological and mechanical scan of a ten-kilometer radius. The result was that no biological traces were found, and there were sixty-five stalkers of the same model within the range.

Laura highlighted their marks in her helmet, and first led out and eliminated five of them. However, the information she received was almost the same as the previous one. Basically, it was suddenly interrupted one day more than a year ago. communication, and then continue to mechanically carry out the goals they were set at the factory---hunting creatures.

Considering that getting rid of all the remaining sixty would be a waste of time and the rewards would be low, Laura deliberately avoided their resting place and rushed out of the snow-capped mountains all the way.

After leaving the snow-capped mountains, there was no longer a blizzard blocking the view. Laura only felt her eyes light up, and she suddenly became enlightened.

"boom!"

"Warning, new mechanical creations have been discovered, and life forms have been discovered!"

There was a loud noise not far away, and Rachel's reconnaissance report came on the heels of it. The last bit made Laura quite excited, and she immediately gathered her energy and rushed to the place where the explosion came from.

After flying over a cliff, a fierce battle scene appeared in front of her.

Dozens of strangely dressed humanoids were besieging a huge bird-shaped mechanical creation using bows, arrows, crossbows, and small trebuchet-like weapons.
