The King's Game

Chapter 113

Edited by: the marvelous grump

Reading in such a dim environment was difficult, but it was not impossible. Under limited conditions, Gu Huai chose to adapt to the environment, while the small group of lights beside him made him slightly dazed.

It was used to illuminate the room for him. Aware of this, Gu Huai raised his head and looked back at the R-03 robot, which was watching him. This was his family. Gu Huai rubbed his cheek against the arm of this robot.

The cold robot close to the youth let out a “Du” sound, and its line of sight could not help but move to its arm where the youth rubbed his soft cheek, then slightly tilted its head.

Gu Huai began to search for useful information in the data file. The current site was deserted. Gu Huai did not know how long the fortress had been abandoned, but judging from the yellow paper in his hand, the time was not too short.

More than ten years ... decades.

Gu Huai silently guessed in his heart that one of the file bags in his hand contained the identity files of the soldiers who had worked in the fortress and recorded very detailed personal information. In the skill specialty column, Gu Huai paused.

Space magic, healing magic ...

“Science and technology in this world go hand in hand with magic?” Gu Huai called out his system. This was not so much an inquiry as a statement of his findings.

“Judging from the current situation, this is the case.” The system’s low voice gave a positive answer.

In this world, there may be situations where it couldn’t collect information. This system told Gu Huai in advance in the previous world, but now, this situation happened.

The current world’s level of science and technology should be high. Gu Huai could easily draw this conclusion by looking at the mechanical creatures around him.

In addition to the soldiers’ identity files, Gu Huai also found some documents and materials about weapons development and experimental plans, as well as monthly records of various kinds of resource replenishment in the military fortress.

“Ark Plan ...” Filtering out much unnecessary content, Gu Huai couldn’t help paying more attention when he saw the last of the experimental plans.

The first several plans in the documents had detailed records and descriptions, and the last one just recorded the name of the plan, which made Gu Huai a little curious about it.

However, Gu Huai quickly wiped the curiosity from his heart. The military fortress was built in the polar region with a harsh environment and had been abandoned for a long time. He had to first consider the issue of survival, although he was not hungry yet.

“Do you know where the supply depot for this fortress is?” Gu Huai planned to search for any available materials in this abandoned fortress first. Although the time interval was long, if there was any military compressed dry food, with the current level of science and technology in the world ... Maybe it could also be eaten.

After hearing the young man’s words, most of the mechanical creatures present did not move, only a robot on the right of the young man moved. This mechanical creature approached the young man, opened his “belly” for storing things, and then placed food after food in front of the young man.

The youth would need to eat when he woke up. These mechanical creatures had already taken this problem into consideration when they dug out the freezer from the ice and carried it back to the abandoned fort. So while the guards were waiting for the youth to wake up, they chose the most suitable companion to search for resources in the warehouse.

“That’s enough, not so much.” In front of the T-09 robot ready to take out the third compressed food, Gu Huai’s voice stopped it.

Hearing the voice of the youth, the mechanical creature quickly stopped, obediently locked up the storage room, and then continued to gaze at the black-haired youth in front of it.

This kind of military compressed dry food was usually eaten by human beings under relatively difficult conditions. This knowledge was recorded in the database. Considering this, the mechanical creatures present were a little agitated.

If only their models could be more advanced and have stronger capabilities...

Under their current conditions, they could only provide the youth with such food, and the available quantity of these low-quality foods was not very large. Given the amount of food a normal human ate, no matter how frugal they were, the amount of these foods could only last for about a month at most.

They needed to leave this place. This idea had never occurred before, but in the face of the current situation, these mechanical creatures soon came to the same conclusion.

It was estimated that the staff who worked in the data storage room had a hobby of collecting books. Gu Huai dug up many useful books from a cabinet that looked like a private library. The titles of the books were very much the style of books in his original world.

What “A Master of Engineering Self-cultivation”, “Magic Principles and Energy Rules”, “Engineering Encyclopedia” and so on ...

Gu Huai, relying on his photographic memory, quickly imprinted all the useful knowledge in these books into his brain, digested and studied them with the fastest speed, and mastered basic engineering knowledge in less than one day.

Gu Huai also felt that he needed to leave, but before leaving this place, he had to use the resources he had found in this abandoned fortress to do one thing.

“Well... okay.” Staying on the arm of the R-03 robot in a low-lying posture. Gu Huai carefully repaired the last pierced surface shell of the mechanical creature. It was very tiring to maintain this posture for a long time. As soon as it was repaired, Gu Huai would lie down on the arm of this R-03 robot and rest.

Actually, repairing it was only patching the pierced shell. Gu Huai could only achieve this level with the resources that could be found at present. The damaged parts had only been partially replaced for the time being, and suitable materials must be found to replace them all.

“The colors are different and not very good-looking. When we find new materials after we go out, I’ll do it again for you.” Despite his posture of lying prone to rest, while slightly narrowing his eyes to say this sentence, Gu Huai put away the tools in his hand.

The original color shell was patched with many patches, which made the cold mechanical creatures present in the scene have a comic effect. Compared with the tattered appearances from before, they now looked even less dangerous.

“Du, Du-” Some mechanical creatures present carefully looked down at their patches, their electronic eyes flashed a blue light as they blinked several times.

The youth said that this was not very good-looking, but they liked it very much. If they fought again in the future, they would be careful to avoid being attacked in these places. It was the youth who mended them, they could no longer be damaged casually.

“We’ve got everything, so are we ready to go?” Lying down to rest for a while, Gu Huai sat up and asked the robot’s opinion.

The mechanical creatures present were still staring at the patches on their bodies. Now they heard the youth’s inquiries and nodded at the same time.

There were many enemies outside... but if they didn’t leave, the youth would not be able to survive, so they had to get out of this place.

Leaving the fortress without the wall to block the wind, in the freezing world where the cold wind howled, for a human body, the feeling of cold would undoubtedly be several times greater than in the room. This was a cold that could not be completely resisted even in special combat clothing.

“No, I won’t go in. It’s not very cold outside either. Just like now.” Gu Huai shook his head and rejected the proposal to stay in the belly of the baking robot next to him. The other party wanted to build a heat preservation room for him, but after reading those engineering-related books in the fort, Gu Huai now knew that this was a thing that would make the other consume energy faster.

The robots numbered R were combat types, T were the household types, and C types were the healing types, also known as auxiliary types. These were the three basic robot models. Gu Huai learned this through the books.

No matter what type of robot, it needed an energy core to support its operation. The energy core of general mechanical creation was made of a magic stone. The energy that magic stones could provide was limited, and the specific service life depended on the situation.

To continue activities, there was no doubt that it was necessary to directly replace the energy core or supplement the existing core with energy, which could be colloquially called charging.

However, if IDA crystals could be found in the future, he would be able to make eternal energy for his robots ... Thinking about this matter, Gu Huai breathed a sigh of relief into his own hands. He saw the description of IDA crystals in the Encyclopedia of Engineering, and then put it into his future search target.

Day and night, even with the extremely high speed of the mechanical creations, Gu Huai’s team spent nearly half a month leaving the polar ice cap.

Finally seeing vegetation in his sight, Gu Huai couldn’t help taking a deep breath, feeling relieved.

It was a smooth journey. Next, as long as he could find a place where there were people.... Just relaxing a little bit, Gu Huai immediately heard the alarm from the surrounding robots.

“Beep-“

Detecting the emergence of a living body nearby, the mechanical creatures around the youth immediately entered a state of high vigilance, and they locked up the direction in which the living body appeared.

The living body was approaching their direction, and it was heading towards them.

Hearing the alarm, Gu Huai was slightly shocked, and soon he looked into the air along the eyes of the surrounding robots. Within seconds, a huge red dragon came into his sight.

The red dragon landed on the ground and turned into a humanoid form, so the image turned to a man with complicated runes on his arm and two dragon horns staring at Gu Huai.

Compared with that, Gu Huai was now in a state of surprise. There were non-human races in the world. The information collected in the abandoned fortress was not related to this, so it was totally unexpected for Gu Huai.

But Gu Huai didn’t know that the dragon on the opposite side was hundreds times more shocked than him.

Human, a living human.... This noun, which had disappeared in the world more than 200 years ago, had reappeared. Gerald’s eyes were full of disbelief, but he was surprised. The dragon first used space magic to rescue the youth surrounded by a group of mechanical creatures, and then aimed a spear at the mechanical creatures.

The youth was stolen. The discovery made the collective mechanical creatures stiffen. Almost at the same moment, the blue light on the eyes of these mechanical creatures suddenly turned red. The alarm sounded close to the harsh sound, and these mechanical creatures entered a fierce state in an instant.

These were just old models of machines, so it was not difficult to deal with them. Gerald looked coldly at the fierce mechanical creature in front of him and raised his right hand....

“Pa!”

“......？？” The newly raised right hand was slapped down by the youth. The red dragon was silly for a second. If it wasn’t right now, he couldn’t help asking what the human, as a rare creature, wanted to do.

Only in this second, the furious mechanical creatures had rushed over. Gu Huai stopped his robots and comforted them a little. Then he stopped between his family and the red dragon and looked at the latter. “What do you want to do? It’s only the first time we’ve met. There’s no animosity between us. “

At last, it could be seen that the young man was protecting the mechanical creatures. Gerald couldn’t speak as if he was being choked. His eyes were full of inexplicable emotions.

“I’m kind enough to help you wipe out the enemy. What do you mean by that?” The red dragon didn’t understand the situation. He didn’t understand why the human youth was protecting these mechanical creatures, and even more.... How could these mechanical creatures be appeased by the youth.

At first, he thought that the youth was surrounded by these mechanical creatures, so Gerald started to rescue him, but now he found that things were not what he thought.

But it was an undoubted fact that mechanical creation was the enemy. The present situation was probably just a trick the former was playing.... Gerald was more and more convinced of the idea that there were many highly intelligent beings in mechanical biology.

Even the old models of machines could not be underestimated, let alone ignored——

“They are not my enemies.” It was his family. Gu Huai didn’t say the second half of the sentence, but that was what he thought.

Gerald didn’t answer. He felt that the man in front of him was probably hoodwinked by the mechanical creatures. He could not understand such a big fact.

Seeing that the young man was still standing in front of him firmly, the red dragon couldn’t help speaking out: “Did you hit your head? You humans were exterminated by these mechanical creatures. If you are not enemies, you are too generous. “

Mankind was exterminated by mechanical creations. Hearing this sentence, Gu Huai was really stunned. The amount of information in this sentence was a little large....

“Du, Du...” The eyes of the Mechanical creatures behind the youth flickered frantically with blue light. They seemed to be a little anxious to explain, but they had no ability to use language.

“You humans have created something that should not exist, with the consequence of destruction, not only for you humans, but also for other races. Maybe you are the last human to survive. I will not hold you responsible, but I can’t let go of the mechanical creatures that have appeared in front of me. ” Having confirmed the fact, the red dragon used magic to imprison the human youth in front of him to one side, and he focused on facing the enemies in front of him.

Gu Huai was trapped in the ice magic. In front of him, the dragon, in his humanoid form, had mobilized the surrounding elements again to attack.

The elements responded to the call of the red dragon. Dragons had a unique advantage in the study and control of magic, and dragon magic was an existence that all races were afraid of.

He couldn’t do anything.... It was impossible for Gu Huai to let the situation go on like this. In an imprisoned state, Gu Huai tried his best to think.

Magic... The fundamental principle of magic was——

The magic of the red dragon had been condensed. Just when Gerald threw out all the condensed energy, he suddenly found that the magic he threw out collided with another extremely heavy energy.

As soon as he was hit, he was almost completely overwhelmed. The red dragon was knocked down several meters away by the powerful magic energy coming from the recoil, leaving a mark on the ground.

“...” It was a long time before he realized what happened to him. Gerald looked at the young man who was near him.

This was close to a terrifying level, how could a human being have such spiritual power??

Before thinking about it, the red dragon heard the quiet voice of the human youth, “Now, can we speak well?”
