Genshin Impact: I am best at sacrifice, don't cry

Nan Dou ran quickly in the bright and clean corridor of the research building. Having lived here for three years, he was very familiar with everything here.

"What is the front line like? I've been here for three years and I don't know what's going on outside."

Although there is no restriction on Nan Dou's access to the Internet here, the news about the Antimatter Legion is blocked tightly.

Nan Dou only knew that a few years ago, the Black Tower had manufactured a combat robot and some weapons whose combat capabilities far exceeded those of the most advanced combat robots on the Azure Star.

As for what achievements have been made and the situation on the front line, nothing is known.

"I don't know what Black Tower wants from me. Forget it. She won't harm me anyway."

Nandou's mind was full of thoughts and he soon arrived at the laboratory where Heita worked.

In the laboratory, Nan Dou once again met the soldier who brought him and Heita here three years ago.

The only difference from that year was that the soldiers looked very respectful standing next to the black tower.

Heita sat on a tall chair, turned slowly, and faced Nandou: "You are so slow, but you still have time."

What surprised Nan Dou was that Heita, who had seemed a little nervous during the video call just now, now showed no signs of nervousness at all.

However, the soldier standing next to her frowned and looked questioning when he saw Nan Dou.

"What do you want me to do?"

Heita's hands moved quickly on the virtual keyboard, and he said casually: "I'm calling you to save the world."

"what???"

Nan Dou was confused as to why he had to save the world while staying at home.

"Don't you like playing games?"

"All I want you to do is play a game here."

Heita didn't look up at Nandou, his fingers were still pressing rapidly.

"This is inappropriate..."

“This is my decision!”

The soldier standing next to Heita was about to speak when he was interrupted by Heita.

Heita's fingers finally stopped, and he stared at the soldier seriously, and said slowly again: "This is my decision!"

"Yes!"

The soldier didn't dare to look directly into Heita's eyes. He stood up straight and lowered his head to respond.

Nan Dou suddenly felt a terrifying aura from Heita and couldn't help but shiver.

"Come on, lie down there, and kill all the enemies just like the game I gave you last time."

"This is your mission."

Not far from the black tower, a coffin-like neural docking cabin opened with white smoke coming out.

Nan Dou glanced at Heita's deep blue eyes. For some reason, he always felt an indescribable chill.

"I see."

After lying down obediently in the neural docking cabin, Nan Dou's consciousness fell into darkness. He vaguely heard the voice of Heita through the risk of the hatch: "You have 100 lives. You must eliminate all the enemies before they are used up..."

"Playing games, I'm good at it."

After Nan Dou's consciousness completed the connection, the pitch-black scene in front of his eyes suddenly lit up.

In the familiar machine warehouse, rows of fully armed and fully-loaded unmanned combat robots stand quietly.

After the neural connection, Nandou can obtain a 360° view through the visual sensors of the unmanned combat robot.

"Hang bang bang!"

"connection succeeded!"

“Begin self-examination!”

"Powertrain integrity 100%"

"The thrusters of all parts of the aircraft are operating normally!"

"Energy system integrity 100%"

"Energy shield is functioning normally!"

"Overload function preloaded normally!"

"Weapon system integrity 100%"

"The chain sword on the right arm of the machine is functioning normally!"

"The pulse cannon on the left arm of the machine is functioning normally!"

"The chest magazine of the aircraft is functioning normally!"

"The super machine gun on the shoulder of the machine is functioning normally!"

"The explosive blades on the body's legs are functioning normally!"

Listening to the electronic sound ringing in his ears, Nan Dou's mouth corners curled up slightly and he began to get excited.

"Attack!"

"Om~~"

The hangar door opened quickly, and the thrusters behind the five-meter-tall humanoid combat robot began to spray flames, driving the combat robot's body to glide.

"Full power!"

"boom!!!"

The thrusters made a blast, and the huge tail flame pushed the machine to move rapidly.

Nan Dou looked at the bright light at the hangar exit, and his excitement reached its peak.

After a moment of brightness, Nan Dou's vision returned to normal.

I saw a very abrupt black crack appearing on the plain under the blue sky.

Monsters from various antimatter armies that Nan Dou had seen in the game were pouring out of it in an endless stream.

Ten kilometers away from the crack is an extremely prosperous city.

A black line spread across the crack two kilometers away. Nan Dou zoomed in on the machine and discovered that the line was actually a defense line constructed by humans on the Azure Star.

Humans wearing reinforced exoskeletons stood on the defense line in full readiness, and various weapons that Nan Dou had never seen before were lined up on the positions.

After the monsters of the antimatter army emerged from the black cracks, they did not rush to attack the human defense line, but began to gather consciously.

"The Skydome missile group will arrive at the target location in five seconds!"

A notification suddenly sounded in Nan Dou's ears.

"3!"

"2!"

"1!"

"Boom!"

The moment the countdown stopped, hundreds of black dots suddenly fell from the sky and attacked the black crack like dense raindrops.

Nan Dou seemed to see the scene when the monsters of the antimatter army gathered together were blown to pieces.

The human soldiers from the Azure Star who were guarding the defense line in the distance also began to cheer for this, and the depressing atmosphere was instantly released.

But the next second, something shocking happened!

A giant beast that was over ten meters tall, looked like a mammoth, and was covered with black crystalline substance suddenly emerged from the ground.

"Roar!!!"

The deafening roar even drowned out the hissing sound of the Sky Missiles tearing through the air as they flew in the sky.

"Enemy [Growler] spotted!"

The Roarer raised its long nose and a black energy wave instantly spurted out of its nose, turning into scattered energy rays that accurately destroyed most of the missiles.

Fortunately, the remaining missiles continued to fall into the antimatter legion cluster, but the power of the missile explosion seemed to be restrained by something, causing only dozens of casualties among the antimatter legion monsters.

The cheers of the human soldiers came to an abrupt end, and many people showed expressions of horror on their faces. They knew very well the power of those missiles.

Nandou didn't feel anything special and quietly increased his body's energy supply.

"It's exactly the same as in the game I played before, but I thought it was a monster created by Black Tower, but I didn't expect it to be real."

On the Azure Star, there are a series of basic combat units in the antimatter legions, including the Virtual Soldiers·Plunderers, Virtual Soldiers·Tamperers, and Virtual Soldiers·Erasers.

There are also many new species that Nan Dou has never seen in the Bengtie game, such as the Roarer who just showed his might.

Many of the monsters in the Antimatter Legion are warriors who have not yet died. They have been recast in the "Forge of War" and gained the power of "Destruction".

Not only that, when the antimatter army invades other planets, the power of the star core will erode the creatures on the planet, creating unique destructive monsters.

That's how the Howler came to be, but there are no beasts of the Howler's size on the Azure Star.

If nothing unexpected happens, the Roarer should be the harvest of the Antimatter Legion when invading other planets.

After a wave of missile attacks, there was no follow-up, perhaps because there was not enough time, or perhaps because they felt that the results were minimal.

After all, the place where the antimatter army appeared this time was too dangerous, and it was too close to the city, making the release of high-powered bombs a fantasy.

"Damn it! These damn monsters even know how to launch sneak attacks!"

"The main forces are all at the front line, and there is no time to transport powerful weapons. What should we do?"

"We have no way to retreat. Behind us is the Azure City. The Federation President and the Supreme Command are all there."

“We must not let those monsters pass. Even if it means we are shattered to pieces, we must stop them outside of Azure City!”

"..."

The soldiers' voices were captured by the Black Tower through a radio device and transmitted to Nan Dou's ears.

"Well, it's different from the game. These soldiers are real human beings."

"We need to minimize their casualties. Let's treat this as a side quest besides the main quest."

But what Nan Dou didn't expect was that as soon as his voice fell, an electronic sound rang in his ears again:

"The main quest has been updated - prevent the Antimatter Corps from entering Azure City. If a monster from the Antimatter Corps breaks through the defense line, it will be considered a failure!"

“The side quest has been updated - try to ensure the survival of human soldiers. The more soldiers who survive after the battle, the higher the points you will get!”

“The legendary achievement mission has been updated—annihilate the entire antimatter army while ensuring that no human soldiers are injured or killed and the number of deaths does not exceed 10!”

Nan Dou became even more excited. He didn't expect that Heita would load the game system into the body system.

"Very good, I'm fully motivated this time!"

"Let me show you the strength of the most powerful gamer on Azure Planet!"

"Self-destruct system activated! Overload system activated!"

Nam Doo practically yelled the order in his head.

"Ding! The self-destruct system has been activated! The overload system has been activated!"

"The body's reactor has entered overload mode. The body is expected to be destroyed in three minutes!"

Since he wants to complete the task, Nan Dou will naturally go all out.

In the game created by Black Tower that completely replicated the performance of these machines, Nan Dou had already figured out the detailed performance of the most powerful machine in the game - the Death.

After the overload mode was activated, the originally pure black body began to light up with blood-red lines from the energy reactor on the chest, spreading to the entire body.

The temperature, which was as high as thousands of degrees and still rising, caused the body to begin to emit light red smoke.

Ten seconds later, blood-red lines spread all over the body.

The Death was completely covered in reddish smoke, and its blue eyes turned into a deep blood red.

"Phew~ This feeling is so great!"

When the nerves are connected, Nandou will not feel pain even if the body is damaged.

However, the machine's constantly heating body and the reactor that could explode at any time could make his fighting spirit burn even more fiercely.

After the Black Tower's neural connection technology gradually matured, Nan Dou's body could react with almost zero delay as long as he thought about it.

Most people cannot do this, but Nandou possesses the ability [Concentration of Consciousness] which he gained from surviving General Lei Dian’s [Unthinking Sword].

The actual function of [Concentration of Consciousness] is to strengthen Nan Dou's will, and under certain circumstances, his will can be condensed into a form similar to the Law of Heaven and Earth.

Acting on the neural connections, it raised his operational capabilities to a level that was unattainable by humans. It could even be said that even if Heita himself came, he couldn't do better than Nandou.

"Qiang!"

The chain sword on the right arm of the machine popped out and began to operate, with sparks flying and a buzzing sound emitted.

The originally silver chain sword reflected a bloody color due to the overload of the body.

"Death...is coming."

Although his heart was filled with fighting spirit, Nan Dou's eyes were as cold as ice. He calmly controlled the Death Ship and rushed towards the antimatter army that had just started moving.

"Om~~"

The thrusters all over the body of the machine burst into exaggerated flames, and under the cover of the hazy red mist, it looked like a phoenix spreading its wings.

"boom!"

Several kilometers of distance were crossed by the machine in just a few seconds, and a red purgatory road appeared in the formation of the antimatter army.

The reason why it is called the Road to Purgatory is that along the route that the machine controlled by Nan Dou passes, only burning ashes are left.

The speed of the machine was so fast that the antimatter army had no time to react.

"This is just the beginning!"

The machine's arms were spread wide, and the magazine bay on its chest opened, revealing densely packed miniature Death Missiles.

"Boo! Hah! Hah!"

Thousands of micro missiles completely covered the antimatter army that was still in a daze.

The Reaper missile is only the size of a pencil, but after flying out of the missile cylinder, the tail separates again, and then a powerful propulsion flame bursts out.

From Nan Dou's perspective, the machine automatically locked onto dozens of targets.

Then, in the span of a breath, dozens more shattered bodies appeared in the antimatter army.

The Death Missile has no explosive capability. Its sharp warhead, under its powerful propulsion force, becomes a deadly attack and penetrates the enemy's body.

One death missile may not have the ability to kill, but what if there are dozens or hundreds of them?

No matter how strong the vitality is, it cannot make up for the fact that the body is mostly damaged.

"!!!"

The antimatter army finally reacted and began to counterattack. The figures of the virtual soldiers and plunderers turned into afterimages and attacked Nan Dou from all directions.

Nandou had anticipated this scene, but the afterswing of releasing the Death Missile made it impossible for the machine to move immediately.

"Qiang! Qiang!"

Nandou grinned as he slashed the machine with sharp blades at various parts of the machine.

The next second, the thrusters on one side of the machine exploded, and the machine instantly spun at an extremely fast speed, turning into a blood-red death storm in an instant. The chain sword on the right arm and the flaming blade on the right leg collided with the sharp blades on the arms of the Void Soldiers and Plunderers.

"Dang! Dang! Dang!"

"Puff! Puff!"

There was a dense sound of metal collision, followed by the sound of flesh being torn apart.

The dozen or so virtual soldiers and raiders that had just besieged the machine disappeared on the spot and were swept into pieces by the death storm.

"Roar!!!"

A black light appeared in an instant, and the death storm that the body had transformed into immediately quieted down.

Soon, the bloody storm dissipated, revealing a machine with half of its body blown to pieces.

The Roarer walked to the side of the machine with some anger, raised his front hooves high, and stomped heavily towards the machine.

"Haha, you are angry because of shame. I should thank you for bringing forward the self-destruction time of the machine."

"See you in the next life..."

"boom!"

As the Roarer stepped down, a violent explosion sent flames shooting straight into the sky, and the area within a hundred meters was turned into a sea of ​​fire.
