Start with a Mechanical Hunter

 Chapter 679 The Source of the Assassination

In the dark space, the textile machine was still turning "clicking" and "clicking", and each spinning thread expanded and contracted regularly. If you look closely, there seem to be some strange letters on the imitation threads.

The black tide is getting higher and higher, as if it is going to completely dissolve this old textile machine.

However, this loom is too old, so old that even pure darkness cannot digest it.

Seeing that the corrosion of the black tide was useless, Ye Daluoli closed her little hands, and the black tide materialized in the dark space, turning into two walls, closing towards the center amidst the sound of "boom" and "boom" that crushed everything.

The abilities of SS+ are not just a joke after all.

As if disturbed by the dark space, the silk threads on this textile machine were weaved faster and faster, and the imitation threads began to intertwine with each other, turning into slender and supple silk. As the letters on the imitation threads intertwined with each other, they gradually evolved. A personal name came out, there was Mr. Du, there was Du Zhaodi, and there was myself!

 “Collapse!”

 A sharp breath flashed through the space.

 And Ye Daluoli's eyes suddenly opened wide, she recognized this thing.

Before the textile machine was completely shattered by two black walls, a silk thread that was stretched to the limit by the traction machine was suddenly torn off, and his name was engraved on that silk thread.

 The next moment, Ye Da Loli felt a strong life and death crisis in every pore of her body.

Every gift of fate comes with a price.

Then, the golden light shines brightly, and in the golden light, transparent figures are shouting, moving forward, belonging to human will, in the open space, extremely dazzling.

Amid the burning light of humanity, a huge black imperial machine descended from the sky, and the new ship-cutting sword in its hand struck at a certain thread in the darkness at a mysterious and mysterious angle.

That was an imitation line that had been broken before. It was only a punch away from Ye Da Loli's neck.

Two extreme Honkai energy collided with each other. Xiao Yu's Honkai power was suppressed to a small range, and the aftermath turned everything around him into powder.

 Fortunately, the power of the 'textile machine' is not durable. In just three seconds, the thread disappears, leaving only the remains of the textile machine.

 “Xiaoyeye, we won!”

Xiao Yu was very happy. She wanted to celebrate with her good friend, but when she turned her head, she saw Ye Daluoli's face was pale, her eyes were out of focus, and her mouth was mumbling, as if she was repeating something. Xiao Yu heard it only when he got closer.

 “It’s too legendary to be true, but it’s too true to be true.”

"Well-"

Xiao Yu wanted to say something to comfort the other party. Suddenly, the huge black emperor machine shook violently. Starting from the mechanical eyeball, it went down all the way. Finally, with the sudden sound of the military machine plug-in in the center, the two-story mechanical body , fell to the ground.

 Ye Da Loli was startled, her originally decadent mentality was suddenly replaced by her friend's life and death.

“Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu, you big fool, what’s wrong with you! I’ll find someone to save you right away!”

 “I’m fine, Xiaoyeye.”

As the two spiritual powers dissipated, the scene returned to reality together. There was a big hole in the roof, apparently caused by the black emperor finally smashing it down. The surroundings were also in chaos. The lights dimmed at some point, and there were people everywhere. It was footsteps, screams.

Ye Daluoli followed the sound and quickly found Xiao Yu not far away. From head to back, more than a dozen mechanical connecting tubes were inserted into the backs of her and Zhongyan Black Emperor. At this moment, Xiao Yu was rubbing his head in pain.

 “You, where are you injured!?” The frightened Ye Daluoli asked quickly.

“It’s okay, it’s not the enemy’s, it’s our boss.”

 “Your boss?”

 Xiao Yu bared her teeth and looked like a funny girl in a Japanese drama.

"It's not a male boss, it's a female boss. Aunt Du used her domain move. My Black Emperor of the End was shut down directly. The energy was short-circuited and my head hurt. Xiaoyeye, please blow it for me."

Ye Daluoli then remembered that she saw three names on the loom, Mr. Ren, herself, and Du Zhaodi.

 So the number of assassination quotas this time is three?

She hurried to the window and saw that outside the window, one building after another dimmed, and various mechanical bodies were swaying, as if most of their functions had been forcibly sealed by some force.

 “Power in the mechanical realm?”

This crazy expansion of power caused many mechanical mechanisms to malfunction. Even the lights in the mysterious corridors in the deepest part of the fortress flickered.

The light darkened and then brightened, and an unexpected face appeared.

Bald head, cheap gray suit, and an old face that is always serious.

 Hand volume.

No one expected that the mastermind behind this assassination was actually Aramaki, the former head of the Ghost in the Shell mobile department.

Aramaki looked around cautiously. Behind every room here, there was a very dangerous existence hidden.

He walked to the last room, hesitated, and pushed the door open. Unexpectedly relaxed, an old man in white was looking at him with a smile, the expression on his face was full of kindness.

“Long time no see, Xiao Huangjuan, I didn’t expect you to be able to check this far.”

"Old man of the fortress," Aramaki shook his body, and the expression on his face changed from shock to surprise, and finally relief.

“To make a long story short, Xiao Huangjuan, although he is not here, this is his territory after all, and he will be back soon.”

 “What happened 60 years ago?”

"This cyber testing ground has its own will. The more it interferes, the easier it is to be counterattacked. At one time, the three of us thought that with the host-level computing power of the planet, there was nothing else on this planet that could not be calculated. Facts have proved , compared with that 'cosmic relic', we are too far behind."

"So, the Deep Web became the 'Deep Web', I was sealed by another me, and Cybertron activated a new 'war'."

"The other me?" Aramaki took a deep breath, "Who is the current 'Fortress'?"

“This is a very interesting topic,” the ‘kind old man’ thought for a moment and said:

"You should know that I have the ability to evolve other people's personalities. It can slightly adjust the key nodes of each historical line to make the history of this planet develop according to our vision, but my vision may not be their vision. , 'They' can be the wise men born in the era, the outstanding people who lead the era, and the super scientists who make the technological tree blossom and bear fruit."

"These characters in history are relaying each other across eras in an information-encrypted way, and the ultimate goal of the relay is to overthrow me and get rid of the control of the planet's host. These people communicate and deduced across each era. , and finally synthesized a plan called the 'Punk Plan'."

“That ancient super virus ‘Punk Family’!” Aramaki was familiar with this history and his expression changed.

"Well, at first, we just thought this was an ordinary virus. Whether it was a large-scale biological virus or an electronic virus, this was not uncommon in human history, so we all relaxed our vigilance. Then, both Shenwang and I fell into the trap.”

“There is actually a virus on this planet that has infected even the planet’s host machine,” Aramaki murmured.

"Based on the 'Honkai Struct' produced in each historical stage, we have deduced that this 'cosmic relic' is likely to be of destructive nature, such as the ones located in the treasure house of ancient weapons, the 'Red Giant Simulator' ', 'Life Accelerator', but now it seems that its properties may be exactly the opposite of what we expected."

 At this point, the voice of the "former old man from the fortress" became unclear. I don't know whether he was unclear or didn't want to say it.

“And the ‘Punk Family’ is the masterpiece of that cosmic relic?”

"Yes, we are adjusting the timeline. I'm afraid it is also adjusting the timeline, but in an encrypted way."

 “So what exactly is a punk family?”

“You can understand it as a ‘toxic core of civilization’ that is 80% in nature.”

 “The product of failed civilizational ascension?!”

"The Cyber ​​Testing Ground itself borrows civilization's technology to advance rapidly and deduce evolution. However, this evolution is destined to be abnormal and abnormal. Therefore, it basically cuts off the 'possibility of ascension' of intelligent species of civilization on this planet. Therefore, That 'cosmic relic' is a failed product that uses the heroes of the past to give birth to the ascension of future civilization."

“It sounds weird, or even completely impossible,” the old man smiled: “But this is the ability of that ‘cosmic relic’.”

“That ‘toxic core of civilization’ has polluted you. What does the power of pollution refer to specifically?”

"The Deep Web is completely integrated with the 'Honkai No. 1'. Its concept has changed from nurturing the Honkai Impact for the 'higher civilization' to allowing the Honkai Impact to completely control its own destiny. I think, as you Your superior, you should have felt her changes to some extent over the years."

Aramaki remained silent.

"As for me, to be precise, the planet host Qi type produced by the 'Galaxy Perpetual Machine Factory' is also 'polluted'. As for what the pollution is, in my opinion, it is the result of this cyber test site. Will it," the 'old man' gave such a reply.

 “Complete transformation, complete evolution, complete cyber era.”

“The three mainframes represent technological computing, while the six mainframes are responsible for protecting humanity under drastic changes. Now, he is standing on the opposite side of you.”

“Is this the reason why he colluded with ‘alien civilization’?”

"yes."

"I need a list, or the channels it colludes with. According to my investigation, there are twelve channels, right."

 This is the main reason why Aramaki took the risk.

The old man didn't speak. He narrowed his eyes and a series of data was transmitted.

After he succeeded, Aramaki was silent for a while and then said:

“How to deal with the ‘poisonous core of civilization’, that is, the punk family?”

“Find a solution from the Honkai Impact, this is probably the only way,” the old man said.

Aramaki thought for a while and said in a deep voice:

 “How do I let you out, old man?”

 “Don’t cross the line, Aramaki!”

 The old man's facial features melted visibly to the naked eye, and the faceless old man looked at him coldly.

 This is the current fortress.
