Chapter 269: Second Brother! “Not here… Nowhere!”
Lin Feng kept walking forward, but did not find his second brother’s corpse. In fact, according to his speculation, there were only about 80 corpses. What about the rest of the 100-men team?
There were neither survivors nor dead bodies. Something strange must be going on!
“Eh? I intercepted a message just now that ordered those robots to retreat to the ruins. Not good, there are intelligent lifeforms in this ruin. They can even control the entire ruin.”
Longbetham suddenly said loudly. At the same time, the robots outside began to retreat one after another, all returning to the ruins.
“The signal was sent from the ruins? Longbetham, can you trace the source of the signal?”
“Of course I can. It is not far in front of you. It came from underground.”
Lin Feng followed Longbetham’s instructions and went along the corridor. After making a few turns, he indeed discovered stairs leading downwards. Moreover, there were a large number of robots guarding the entrance of the stairs.
“Hmph!”
Lin Feng snorted coldly. He could easily defeat these robots even with a combat body of a few meters.
Bang. Bang. Bang. Lin Feng was as fast as lightning. He instantly defeated these guarding robots. Then, he looked down and realized that the stairs extended very deep down. There seemed to be a basement below.
There was also a light at the end of the stairs. Surprised, Lin Feng slowly approached the light and extended his mental power.
Mental power was invisible. With a slight movement of Lin Feng’s current Mental Power Sphere, a large amount of mental power covered the area dozens of meters in front of him.
Through his mental power, he saw an incomparably huge basement. There was a dense horde of many robots standing in the basement.
In the middle of the basement were numerous stone platforms, with some martial artists strapped to them.
Among them was Lin Feng’s second brother, Lin Hai!
“Second Brother!”
Boom. Without any hesitation, Lin Feng rushed into the basement immediately. At the same time, many robots reacted. Lin Feng’s body expanded rapidly, instantly expanding to a height of ten meters.
This basement was very spacious and tall. Lin Feng’s ten-meter-tall combat body was like a small giant as he instantly charged towards the stone platforms. With a grab of his hand, the handcuffs of unknown metal that were shackling his second brother shattered like jelly.
“Second Brother!”
Lin Feng saved his second brother.
Lin Hai was in a daze. He seemed to have heard someone calling his name. His head hurt terribly. At that moment, he felt as if his head was about to explode.
When he opened his eyes, he saw a familiar yet unfamiliar face.
It was familiar because he had seen this face from a young age, yet unfamiliar because he rarely seemed to see it recently. In particular, this face had become incomparably huge now.
“Third Brother!”
Lin Hai smiled. It was his third brother, Lin Feng. No matter how much Lin Feng had changed, the moment he saw Lin Feng, he knew that this was his third brother, Lin Feng!
Lin Hai did not ask Lin Feng why he was here, nor did he ask Lin Feng why he looked like a small giant. The fact that Lin Feng was here already explained everything.
This was his brother, his true brother. The blood between them was thicker than water!
“Third Brother, help them first and save them all.”
Lin Hai looked at the martial artists beside him.
Lin Feng nodded. With a smack of his palm, countless chains were shattered. The chains that Lin Hai and the other Metamorphic Realm martial artists felt were impossible to break free from were actually shattered by Lin Feng with a casual smack.
Bang. However, there were still some people who were not that lucky. Their heads had exploded instantly. Lin Feng only saved 11 people.
“Wai, are you all right?”
Lin Hai supported Wai, who was seriously injured. If Lin Feng had been any later, he probably wouldn’t have been able to hold out.
“Lin Hai, this is your third brother? Not bad, not bad. He’s indeed a dragon among men.”
Wai was still in the mood to joke at a time like this. Lin Hai smiled helplessly.
Lin Feng frowned slightly. He looked at the mechanical face on the large screen in the middle of the basement. All of this was the doing of this mechanical face.
In fact, the signal that Longbetham intercepted was also sent by this mechanical face. The culprit was this mechanical face!
“Second Brother, I’ll escort you guys out first!”
“No, Lin Feng, control the ruins first! This is my mission, but I lack the ability to complete it, while you have the ability to do so. I’m begging you.”
Lin Hai gritted his teeth. He was unwilling to leave just like this. Otherwise, he would be letting down those who had died, and even more so, the brother-in-arms who had saved his life.
His very purpose of participating in Operation Wall Breaker was to fulfill his promise to his brother-in-arms. Even if he died, he had to complete the mission!
Lin Feng did not ask why. He could feel the determination in his second brother’s gaze.
“Second Brother, you guys go out first. I know how to control this ruin!”
“You do?”
Lin Hai took a deep breath and continued in a low voice, “Third Brother, I trust you. I’ll await your good news outside!”
With that, Lin Hai turned around and left with everyone.
At this moment, the ruin was actually very safe, because the large number of robots outside had begun retreating. Lin Feng asked his second brother to leave with the other martial artists, so they would not encounter any danger.
However, Lin Feng knew that this ruin might become very dangerous next.
“Lin Feng, it is below!”
“It?”
“An artificial intelligence that wants to become a lifeform, a true mechanical lifeform!” Longbetham’s tone was grim.
Lin Feng did not know what was so terrifying about an artificial intelligence turning into a mechanical lifeform, but he could sense a faint aura of danger coming from under the basement, and it was becoming more and more obvious.
Hence, Lin Feng walked deeper down into the basement alone.
…
The deep basement did not feel dark and damp at all. Rather, it was very dry.
This basement was huge, like a factory. Inside lay a massive robot that was hundreds of meters tall and completely pitch-black. Some small robots were guarding this place.
In front of the basement, a large screen displayed a huge mechanical face. At this moment, the expression of the mechanical face seemed to have changed slightly.
“Everything is ready. Begin transmission!”
As the voice of the mechanical face finished speaking, the huge mechanical face on the screen flickered slightly before disappearing.
At the same time, the huge robot on the ground that was over a hundred meters tall appeared to be activated all of a sudden. Electricity flashed through its body, and its gigantic body shook slightly.
After an unknown period of time, the massive black metal robot’s body suddenly jolted. The circuits and tubes on its body were all shattered.
Swoosh. Suddenly, the massive metal robot opened its eyes.
