Soul of Burning Steel

After standing there for a few minutes, Joshua stopped thinking.

Is it the soul puppet that breeds humans, and draws out the soul to create the same kind? Or is there another race behind the puppets, grazing the Siberians as livestock? There are many possibilities, and Joshua can think of many, but such thinking is meaningless, it can't solve any problems.

It is necessary to practice and find clues.

The warrior slowly squatted down, a slight buzzing sounded from the joints of the giant soul puppet. He squatted in front of a little boy who breathed smoothly but had no light in his eyes, like a dead boy, and then calmly stretched out a finger, silver. The brilliance began to condense on the tip of his finger, and finally formed a translucent'light blade'.

Most of Joshua's power of steel is in the body outside the void, but his soul still saves a considerable part of the power of steel through Siboa's steel fragments. At this time, Joshua was manipulating the power that could derive life, turning it into a light blade, and cutting it towards the boy's head in earnest.

Puff--the sound of flesh and blood being cut was so slight that even the sound of wind could not penetrate, but Joshua could hear it. He controlled the light blade between his fingers, severely cracked the cortex, muscles, and skull, his fingers turned, the force of steel cut the skull open, and the strong vitality pressed the blood vessels and nerves to maintain the life of the boy whose cranium was lifted.

The naked brain of the boy could already be seen, Joshua looked at it intently, and at the first glance, he saw something within his expectations.

A light blue, like a seal-like rune formation.

This seal-like rune formation, like a product label, is accurately covered on the surface of the boy’s brain, and can be clearly seen. This rune formation is absorbing some peculiar power in the boy's body all the time. , And then transformed into another kind of power throughout the opponent's body. Joshua stretched out the light blade of his fingertips and touched the rune formation. He sensed a clear resistance and seemed to be rejecting the intrusion of the power of steel.

"Can you actually resist the modification of external energy?" Qiao Xiuya nodded slightly: "It's pretty meticulous."

But the power of steel is an essential force that the Void Mother Beast can’t resist. No matter how delicate the design of a small rune formation is, it cannot resist Joshua’s erosion analysis. A few seconds later, it covered the surface of the boy’s brain. The rune formation disappeared, and the boy blinked his godless eyes, and then the whole person fainted completely. At the same time, Joshua frowned, he closed the opponent's skull, and the boy's wounds he cut healed as his vitality surged.

At this time, he also understood the function of that rune formation.

"Seal'imagination','association ability','self-thinking ability','deep thinking ability'...By directly modifying and stimulating the brain's mechanisms of'judgment' and'choice', the rune array that completely seals'wisdom law."

Standing up, Joshua looked up and looked around at the children falling down. He whispered to himself: "The ‘seal of thought’ that directly knocks the civilized and intelligent life into fleshy crops-and also guarantees the purity of the soul."

"The person who designed this set is simply a genius. If there are no accidents and the mental seal is not broken, then there is no life in this world that can resist him."

How to resist? Without the ability to associate and think deeply, humans will become inferior to beasts, and they will not even have memories.

Although he was admiring, Joshua's tone was cold. He didn't continue to look at the young children at his feet-it was useless to look at it. What if he removed all the young children's thoughts? A group of guys who are all newborn babies in their minds, let them get freedom abruptly, and it is the same as not getting freedom.

Now, Joshua is going to the medical area recorded by the unknown mechanic. He wants to know how the so-called soul core was stripped out, and what the super power unit is.

He wants to thoroughly understand what is going on in this world.

The medical area is very close. It is next to the maintenance area. It is diagonally opposite the unfinished white bone building. It is a rectangular low-rise building with a red pentagonal logo on the front. Joshua came to the entrance of the medical area, unexpectedly there were no soul puppet guards, and he didn't even see other active lives or puppets inside.

"Transferred?" Joshua thought for a while, and immediately understood what was going on-from the time he left the pit and destroyed the four soul puppets, the command center of the soul puppets probably had discovered his existence, and then Later, after he smashed the three puppets who were looking after the children, the commanders understood that ordinary puppets would inevitably be defeated when they faced him. If they want to fight, they must be suppressed by a large army.

However, if there is indeed a large-scale battle in the breeding area at this time, then the soul puppet party should not have enough manpower to come back to suppress him, because of this, the commander simply evacuated other nearby souls. Puppets and staff in order to reduce losses.

Very mechanical logical judgment. Qiao Xiuya nodded, this sentence is a compliment, on the one hand, it saves him time to clean up the garbage, on the other hand, they can also preserve their strength. Thinking of this, the soldier strode into the medical area, and he tapped on the ground and ceiling. The force of steel shot out, paralyzed and eroded more than ten series of hidden energy traps.

Since there is no time in the front, it is also a very wise judgment to use traps to procrastinate.

Entering the medical area, Joshua looked around the tediously decorated hall. The hall is wide and tidy. At the edge of the wall, there are glass cabinets filled with silver-white metal boxes. In the center of the hall, there are scattered experimental benches that should be used. A robotic arm to prepare chemical agents. At the end of the hall, there is an icy door made of steel, which should be the ‘operating room’ in the mouth of an unknown technician.

Joshua’s sensing device was able to detect the faint smell of blood and the smell of disinfectant. He didn’t pay much attention to it. The soldier strode towards the door of the operating room. The door was locked tightly. When it sensed that someone was approaching, it A light curtain was projected, and it seemed that it would take some special soul fluctuations to unlock it, but how could Joshua have such a thing? How could he need keys and secret words? Warriors never need them.

Therefore, Joshua clenched his right fist and pulled it back. Then, he slammed a heavy fist neatly, bringing the sound of breaking through the air.

boom! boom! boom!

The rapid and violent roar sounded three times in succession. After the three beeps, accompanied by the twisted creak of steel, the sturdy steel door slowly fell toward the rear, splashing a piece of tile debris. Stepping through the door, Joshua entered the operating room, where he could sense more blood and more souls.

It seemed that because it was not activated, there was no light source in the operating room, which was very dim, but the soldier's modified puppet had its own lighting function. He turned on the light and scanned the interior of the operating room. Qiao Xiu saw many things that he had expected long ago.

Dead body. A large number of corpses. The corpse is incomplete, the brain is sliced ​​open, and the soul is stripped.

In the center of the operating room, there are twelve operating tables arranged in three or four. On the operating table, a bright blue magical light is shining, and Joshua can see at a glance that this blue magical light can drag humans. The soul is out of the body, and on both sides of the operating room, there are two transport tracks with a corpse piled on it. It can be seen that when the transport track is activated, it will send the corpses of many children to the track like an assembly line. On the other end.

Did not find the guessed "doctor" or "soul puppet", Joshua couldn't help being a little disappointed, but soon he discovered that the corpses were weird—there was no need to make wounds when the soul was removed, but those corpses were There are wounds of different sizes, not even in the same location.

Some had the brain removed, some had no heart, some had their arms cut open, the arm bones were taken away, some had lost both eyes, and both ears and inner ear cartilage were missing.

There is no rule. Every corpse has wounds and missing body parts. After being puzzled for a while, Joshua immediately reacted.

"Super Power Unit..."

He murmured, then turned his head and walked towards the medical hall. In the hall, Joshua walked to the nearest glass cabinet. He smashed the door of the cabinet that also needed soul whispers, and then took out a silver-white metal box from it. Joshua used brute force to break the metal box that still needed a password to open. Then look at what is placed in it.

It was a pair of eyes dipped in a glass jar, floating in a pale yellow liquid, shining with strange purple magic light.

"Sure enough."

Qiao Xiu shook his head, his tone is heavy: "The so-called super power unit, this is it...a part of the organ with extraordinary characteristics."

This pair of magic eyes was swept by Joshua’s steel power, and he already knew the power it possessed—this is a pair of magic eyes that can directly modify human memory with their eyes. It can even directly control beasts and insects, making thinking simple. The beast worships him for life.

Lifting his head, the soldier looked at the silver boxes that were full of dangling on the four walls, and there were a few thousands of silver boxes. Joshua felt an inexplicable coldness spreading throughout the room.

There is no doubt that the soul is not the soul puppet and the only shepherding thing behind it. The children who are continuously sent from the breeding area have another important resource worthy of anyone's effort to collect—— Extraordinary organs.

Joshua’s eyes swept across all the cabinets, and with his unique perception, he could perceive that these are contained in the box, including leg shins that can make a person as light as a swallow, and a strong heart that allows people to have endless physical strength. It even preserves a brain that can display thought power, and a special organ that can spit out flames and ice.

These organs, as long as they are transplanted slightly, or simply used as props, can exert an effect comparable to magic scrolls or permanent curing spells. Joshua even saw an arm bone that allows the host to release powerful ray magic. This kind of ray magic is quite threatening even in the world of Mycroft, and it is difficult to use it if it is less than the gold level, but here, as long as the arm bone is transplanted, then the transplanted person is equivalent to one more per day Can use scary magic at least six times.

However, this is not the reason why Joshua is so concerned about these things.

Lowering his head, looking at the magic eye in front of him, Joshua seemed to be looking at the eyes that were kept in the nutrient solution.

The next moment, he stretched out his hand, and the silver light flickered in the center of the huge steel manipulator's palm...At the same time, the magic eye light in the glass jar began to dim quickly. Not long after, an almost invisible purple'particle' It just appeared in Joshua's palm.

Not only this magic eye, but as the silver brilliance in Joshua’s palm became larger and brighter, all the metal boxes placed in the cabinets in the entire medical hall began to shake violently, as if It was like an earthquake at this time, and after a few breaths, the silver light in Joshua’s palm was extremely bright. When it reached the peak, a'particle' floated out of all the metal boxes, and then quickly Gathered in the palm of a soldier!

Thousands of particles of different colors turned into an indeterminate nebula, which rotates in Joshua's palm, just like the nebula collected by the warrior when he traveled through the void before.

A nebula composed of particles of steel.

"Detected a high-concentration'super energy unit', start the loading procedure."

Suddenly, there was a slight electromagnetic wave in the part that belonged to the soul puppet in Joshua's body. It seemed to be a preset program. At this moment, it was stubbornly saying: "Look for the super power unit to access. The port...find failed. Find the built-in super power unit storage device...find failed. The body cannot be loaded with super power units."

As the warrior completely modified his body, those so-called access ports and storage devices naturally disappeared, but Joshua didn't need the authority of these steel particles, he only needed information.

And this preset notification procedure has already given him a lot of information.

"I understand."

Nodding lightly, Joshua looked at the Steel Particle Nebula in his hand, and he finally understood this series of general human pastoral processes.

First of all, the main purpose of the soul puppet is still to collect as many souls as possible. However, the Siboar world is a small world after all. Even if it undergoes a huge change, it cannot become a high magic world. Any ordinary person can have a soul. , The vast majority of human beings are almost worthless'soulless people'.

According to Joshua’s inference, the ordinary Siberian soulless people in the breeding area rely only on their brains for thinking, and only those who have undergone many years of technical work, such as those who resemble unknown technicians. Existence, because of the tempering of all kinds of high-intensity mental work, so the soul can be exercised the day after tomorrow.

And those children who were selected and sent from various places in the breeding area to the garden area to raise, because they have the particles of steel...because of the authority, because of the natural transcendent organs, they can naturally have all kinds of transcendental organs. Power, and soul.

As for the source of the so-called superpowers, it really can’t be explained better-the entire Siboa world is in the center of the Void Maelstrom. God knows how many worlds it comes from, and how strong the particles of steel will carry its power to wear. After passing through this world, even if ninety-nine percent of them just pass through once and leave, one percent of them will be captured by a single mortal.

For these mortals, acquiring the power of ‘super power’ is equivalent to gradually cultivating a ‘soul’ who can use super powers. But what they never expected is that this is actually not a good thing. Having a soul is equivalent to sending oneself into the pasture of death.

In the Mycroft world, being lucky enough to be possessed by the particles of steel and possessing authority can be said to be one step to the sky. Since then, he has the capital to embark on an extraordinary path, just like those young'warlocks' accepted by the Guantian White Tower. But in the Siboyan world, this kind of "lucky" is the real way to die. The souls of those lucky ones will be stripped away, their abilities will be collected, and their flesh and blood will become a part of this huge pasture. Part of it is that they cherish incomparable human flesh resources and fleshy crops.

Joshua silently put away the nebula formed by the particles of steel in his hand... Each particle is equal to the death of a Siboa child who possessed superpowers but was drawn out of the soul and the ability to separate, and his hands , There are nearly 10,000 particles, which means the death of nearly 10,000 Sibeyans who were slaughtered as livestock as soon as they reached adulthood.

And this is just the super-power unit stored in this medical hall. He doesn't believe that there will only be one such facility, and there are only so many cabinets for storage.

But the warrior’s heart at this time was unexpectedly calm. He didn’t even have much anger, because Joshua knew that anger was useless and even harmful in this situation, when a person’s heart flustered. Time is when he is about to face failure.

There is a vague guess in Joshua's heart: The reason why Siboa's world has changed from a low-magic world to its current middle-demon in a thousand years may be related to its location in the center of the Void Maelstrom and the erosion of countless steel particles... …Even, Siboya, the steel python, was kicked out of her body, and the entire world became what it is now, which is also inseparable from the existence of the Void Maelstrom.

He hasn't forgotten the purpose of coming into this world.

But ~www.novelmtl.com~ Just when Joshua was about to turn his head to leave the medical area and go to other places in the garden area to take a look at the situation, suddenly, the ground shook suddenly, and even the surface of the low and sturdy medical area was damaged. There were few cracks, and then, the explosion sounded violently, surpassing thunder from a distance, and it approached quickly, setting off waves of violent sound in the air.

"what happened?"

The soldier was also quite surprised by this. He strode out the door and looked in the direction of the explosion, which was the east. Qiao Xiuya saw that at the very far away from the garden, it seemed to be the eastern breeding area at the end of the experiment. At this moment, it was shining with colorful brilliance, and a huge mushroom cloud was slowly rising from there, straight into the sky.

At this moment, the original white dome light quickly turned red.

"Warning, warning: the enemy has broken through the fourth line of defense in the eastern breeding zone, and the outer line of defense has been completely defeated."

Accompanied by the abrupt sirens and the warning lights that quickly turned red, a non-emotional sound of inorganic matter sounded throughout the garden area: "The guard puppets gather together and go to the eastern breeding area to join the battle!"
