"Compared with those useless people who live their whole lives with no name... you definitely don't deserve this funeral..."

A bit of sarcasm and pity appeared in his huge dragon eyes.

His dragon head slowly rose, the huge mechanical dragon claws slowly retracted from the broken space, and with the clang of the huge chains, he slowly returned.

Because there is no point in letting the main body stay here anymore.

Although many mechanical consciousnesses died because of that book, he didn't care, because the establishment of the hive contained basically all the uploaders of this world.

The only consciousness that truly belongs to the omnic civilization is him and his separated daughter.

He will continue to direct the attack on the Tower of the Colossus.

And what happened here today will only become an episode in his endless life that can be ignored at any time.

Slowly, he turned his head.

But at the moment when he turned his head, the peripheral vision of his pupils suddenly caught a figure in the huge hole.

Buzz——

His pupils shrank instantly.

Inside the huge hive, two overlapping light spots instantly appeared on the monitoring panel in the explosion area.

"He's not dead?!"

At this moment, almost all the mechanical consciousness' expressions changed drastically, and they immediately looked quickly at the image transmitted back by the monitoring panel.

The six books had been blown away to an unknown location in the explosion of fire.

The ongoing curse has also been lifted.

Almost all that was left in the field of vision was the lingering dust raised by the explosion.

But in the very center of the dust, in the very center surrounded by the hot lava, the scene there slowly emerged on their panels.

They saw a girl with flaming silver hair.

Small-scale spell sparks were constantly exploding all over her body, and her entire back had been changed beyond recognition, and the meshing of the burnt gears inside could even be clearly seen.

One of her arms had already been broken in the explosion, and current and sparks were constantly coming out of the fracture.

Like a burnt rose in a field.

And just under her body, in the halo of the spell she held up, the young man was trembling and protected by her, almost unharmed.

She alone blocked all the harm for him.

"How can this be……"

In the hive, all the mechanical consciousnesses stared at that scene palely.

But the girl is not dead yet.

Under their gaze, in the burning dust, she remained silent, struggling to get up from the young man's body. Every move she made was extremely difficult, and every move would bring up the constant waves in her body.

Small explosion.

But she still stood up in the strong wind.

The wind blew through her burnt silver hair, and no one could clearly see the expression of the slender girl under her hairline.

She didn't say a word.

Like a statue in hell.

She lowered her head, stretched out her broken hands amidst the small-scale explosion all over her body, and helped the young man up, using her slender shoulders to support his whole body weight.

Then support him.

dance to tune.

With difficulty but as if carrying an indescribable force, he staggered towards the outside of the explosion area.

At this moment, all the mechanical consciousnesses watching this scene were so shocked that they forgot their actions.

Even the eyes of the huge mechanical dragon head surging in the black mist became serious, staring motionlessly at the doll girl struggling to move forward in the firelight.

"You are crazy! You are simply a lunatic! You keep calling me crazy, but in my opinion, you are the biggest lunatic!!"

Lin En, who was supported by him, looked at her side face tremblingly.

Suppressed by the curse, he could hardly exert any strength, and almost all of his body weight rested on the doll girl.

But she still closed her eyes and remained silent, as if she couldn't hear what Lin En said to her at all.

She just supported him and trudged forward vigorously.

She rarely talks.

Even when she was in the Doll Manor, she could go for several years or even more than ten years without saying a word.

She likes to read books.

Because that was the only interest that made her feel alive since she became a doll.

For a long time, she has been perfectly following the instructions given to her by the manor, and also perfectly abiding by every rule in the contract and regulations.

It's not because she doesn't know how to resist.

It was because after losing those rules and regulations, she felt that she could no longer find the reason and meaning for its existence.

So after Lin En tore up the employment agreement in front of her, she fell into deep confusion, like a puppet whose silk threads were suddenly cut, and could no longer dance the gorgeous dance steps on the stage.

.

But fortunately.

This guy invited her again, and with a smile invited her to protect him as a free man.

Although I don’t understand the difference and significance between the two.

But I still felt it suddenly.

It seemed as if there was a burden on my body that I had never quite understood, and it was quietly lifted at that moment.

"Idiot! Idiot! Run away! They are all still watching here. The God of All Machines is still there, the Mechanicus is still there, and you are here to seek death!"

"Do you think I will thank you?! Don't be naive! You are just a thirty-day hired worker that I paid for nothing! I don't regard you as a person at all!!"

"I've already told you! It's just a verbal agreement! There are no regulations! There is no contract! If you encounter something you can't do, just abandon him decisively!! You are still trying your best to come here?

Why are you looking for death?!"

Linn accused angrily and almost hysterically.

He wants her to run away!

Run for your life!

Because this is not the place she should be!

For a verbal agreement, this is not worth it at all!

"With a contract."

Black Xianyue closed her eyes, took him with all her strength, stepped over the burning lava step by step, and whispered:

"Have you forgotten? I used up your one chance of resurrection, so I gave you a promise. If one day you encounter a certain death situation, I will definitely come to save you, that's all."

"I kept my contract."

Her voice still had no fluctuations, and it was so low that she couldn't feel the burning and brokenness of her body at all.

Lin trembled and looked at her broken cheeks.

He finally remembered the so-called [Doll's Oath], but he thought it was just a joke, and he never thought about letting her take the risk.

"Then I'll tell you now!" Lin En looked at him with blood-red eyes and said:

"Miss Black Crescent Moon! You are fired! All contracts between us will be invalid from now on! Do you understand? You no longer need to fulfill your obligation to protect me!"

The black crescent moon paused.

Silent.

But just for a moment, she acted as if she didn't hear anything and continued to support him as he trudged hard.

That slender body didn't waver at all, as if it was carrying a huge mountain.

"Didn't you hear me?! You're fired! You're fired!"

Lin En said to her loudly and ferociously.

"You no longer need the obligation to travel, and you no longer need to protect me!"

Black Xianyue closed her eyes calmly, tightened his wrist on her neck, and finally said:

"The dismissal is invalid."

"Before the contract is reached, the Doll's Oath cannot be terminated unilaterally and refuses to be executed."

At this moment, Linn was almost furious.
