Link and Dave walked and suddenly stopped.

After a few seconds, a black shadow rushed out of the corner like lightning and climbed along Link's exoskeleton armor.

After the treasure hunter climbed to Link's shoulder, he stretched out his two small claws and pointed to the corner of the darkness. Then he used his two small claws to fan and pointed to the position under his feet.

Link suddenly realized, "You mean the Five Rats Agents are following in the dark, the rat group and the silver marching ants are all at my feet, following us?"

The treasure hunter nodded repeatedly, and even stretched out his small claws to give a thumbs up.

All the cards are in place and everything is going according to plan.

"Dave, the energy area is so big, do you always know which building your granddaughter is in?"

Each personal battery energy area covers an area of ​​more than ten acres of land, just like a large commercial area.

And there are at least dozens of energy centers like this at a glance.

If you don’t know the specific location and search one by one, it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Dave nodded confidently and said, "When we were caught, our arms were encoded with lasers. Everyone's nutritional bin was fixed. So after they captured Helen, they would definitely escort to the original nutritional bin. I remember the code on Helen's arm: SSNI-826. The letters in front represent the building and the number of floors, and the last number represents the number."

"We just need to find Building S, Area I, N direction of S, and No. 826, that must be the nutritional warehouse where Helen is located."

Link suddenly realized that since he could determine the position, those with targets would be much faster to find.

Link shrugged and said to the treasure hunter: "Although we are in a disguise now, Xiaobao, you still have to make a warning, and someone is reminding you at any time."

The treasure hunter nodded silly and saluted Link, ensuring that he could complete the task!

(￣^￣)ゞ

The little guy ran into Link's pocket.

Link and Dave continued to move forward, each building's main exterior has a letter emitting neon light, which makes searching easier.

The entire mechanical city is five kilometers in length. From the perspective of the city, this scale is not as large as the Shenmu City established by Link.

The five major areas of the Mechanical City are clearly divided. No matter which area you are in, you only need to turn your head slightly to see the restricted area of ​​the mechanical pioneer Dr. Zhao in the center of the city, as well as the huge and operational gear.

The gears exuding silver metallic luster are like a Ferris wheel, bringing the entire mechanical city into your eyes.

And this huge gear, among the warriors and apostles of the Mechanic City, has another name - the Eye of the Pioneer.

Soon, Dave and Link found the energy center with the huge S letter hanging outside the wall.

The Energy Center is not guarded by mechanics. Just scan the chip in front of the machine at the door to confirm your identity and you can move around unimpeded.

Just as he entered the building, Dave stopped.

"President Lin, I'm afraid you'll be the only one in Helen's nutritional warehouse later. Because Helen has forced herself to break free from her dream. If she continues to break free this time, it is very likely that all her previous memories will be erased, and even damage her brain tissue. I now have the hub cable underground of the Energy Center, connect my consciousness into the dream, tell her the truth in the dream, and let her wake up on the initiative."

Link frowned slightly, looked at Dave in the scavenger mecha, and asked, "How can you connect your consciousness into your dreams if you don't lie in the nutrition warehouse?"

Dave photographed his own scavenger mecha: "I thought about this problem when I was planning alone before, so the scavenger mecha has made enhancements in this regard. I can directly connect the mecha to the cable. There is a nerve transceiver behind the mecha that penetrates the spine, which can achieve the ability to access consciousness."

Link knew about the setting that rough awakening has the probability of damage to the brain, which is the case in his previous life.

After all, in the middle and late stages of the previous life, after the Free Alliance forces where the player was located broke through the Machine City, many examples occurred when the battery people were liberated. At that time, many NPCs lost part of their consciousness and did not remember their own life experience or relatives, and had many tasks similar to returning to the family, finding relatives or reactivate their memories.

"Then I will accompany you to the underground of the energy center first. After you successfully connect, I will wait in front of Helen's nutritional warehouse."

The two hit it off.

Because there were no mechanics, Link and Dave came to the underground with a familiarity and found the hub cable.

"How long will it take to find Helen?" Link couldn't help but ask, knowing that there are thousands of people in the virtual world, as well as virtual characters created by programs, and finding someone is not easy.

"Helen and I made an agreement that if one day I could come back to save her, I would go to the agreed place with a specific code. In just 15 minutes, I could wake her up!"

"Okay, then hurry up."

Then, Link watched Dave connect the mecha to the device. Dave twitched and his consciousness was successfully connected to the virtual world created by the Mechanical City for human batteries.

Each energy center is an independent virtual world, and the nutritional silo capacity of an energy center is 100,000.

The energy center of the entire Machinery City starts from the letter A to the Z. Although it is not completely filled, the conventional capacity has reached as much as 2 million.

With the frequent experiments in Machinery City in recent years and the intention to expand, the energy industry has become even more difficult.

Shadu guards the important roads, and it is difficult for the Mechanical Divine Cult to attack.

Behind it is another organization like Wasteland Gang who is eyeing it, and the Mechanical God Cult is in a dilemma.

No new human batteries can be found. Although the previous human batteries were soaked in nutrient solution, the cells of the body would still divide and grow. Many human batteries are going to perish due to aging.

Therefore, the Immortal Plan came into being, completely extracting human consciousness, relying on cloning technology to create a new human being, and then injecting consciousness into a new body. Although the Immortal Plan solves the disadvantages of human aging and death, the plan is not omnipotent.

No matter how many experiments have been done, the pioneer of mechanical doctor, Dr. Zhao, found that soul data can only be transferred from one individual to another, but cannot be copied. Relying on one piece of data to copy another piece of data. In other words, using the Immortal Plan, the number of existing human batteries can only be maintained and cannot be amplified.

After Yi Ren appeared, Dr. Zhao, who thought he could solve the big problem, found that these Yi Ren had no conscious data at all, and were like a body controlled remotely.

However, because of the snatching the energy pillar and the development of the sand, the two former rivals, Mechanical God Cult and Wasteland Gang, can finally sit at a table calmly and talk about the joint cooperation.

Link came to the nutrition room where he encoded it as fast as possible and saw Helen lying in the nutrient solution through the glass.

In Dave's description, his granddaughter Helen is a cute, orange-haired child with a little bit of natural mole marks on the tip of his nose. But the person Link saw at this time should be teenagers from his appearance. However, whether it is the hair color or the mole on the tip of his nose, it is exactly the same person as Dave described.

Link retrieved the armor panel and immediately sent a message to Zhuifeng, [Is it going well?]

After a moment, Link received a reply from Zhuifeng, [Everything goes well for the time being.]

If everything goes well, then in fifteen minutes, Dave successfully rescued Helen. They will go to John to meet again. When the rendezvous is rendezvous, Link's spy rat is time to come in handy, stealing various plans, procedures or mechanical blueprints of the Mechanical God Cult in the laboratory.

Then, taking advantage of the ascension ceremony along the way and the parking review of the Mechanical City, he left without knowing it.

Just as Link was imagining, the treasure hunter in his pocket suddenly stretched out his little head and issued an early warning to Link's chatter.

The treasure hunter stretched out two small claws, swung a huge circle in the air, and then pointed to the location of the front door of the energy center.

Link felt a deep heart, frowned, and walked to the window and looked down...

I saw three containers parked on the transportation track in front of the main entrance of the Energy Center.

As the container door opened in the first section, more than a dozen mechanic soldiers were like foam overflowing from water in the wash basin, instantly emerging.

Immediately afterwards, these mechanics who were good at carrying weights all waited in front of the containers in the last two sections.

When the two containers were opened, Link suddenly saw that the container was filled with wooden coffins!

"Come on, move these corpses to the disposal room quickly." The captain in it commanded.

The mechanic soldier began to carry the wooden coffin into the energy center and headed to the processing room on the first floor.

"Let me see if there are other mechanics nearby. The bodies of these two containers will be unloaded to the point where these people have to... "

Link saw the captain fiddling with the panel, but the next second his main control panel made a buzzing sound, showing a higher privilege access to the system nearby and video calls.

"Mechanical warriors, a new batch of corpses came from S Energy Center and needed to be stripped. You are the closest person nearby and you have been recruited! Please report to the door of S Energy Center right now."

Before Link could speak, the other party hung up the call.

Link frowned, and couldn't help but look back at the nutritional warehouse where Helen was, and complained: "Sure enough, you will never know which accident or surprise arrives first."

In the Machine City, there is no reason for the superior to call the subordinates, and it must be executed immediately once the order is issued.

Because Dave's consciousness is connected to the hub at this moment, and the scavenger armor is also in a state of power-off simulation of nutritional bins, only Link is scanned and recruited.

"If Helen is resurrected in front of these mechanic warriors, it will be completely exposed. For the sake of this, Dave and Helen will not be full of collision with the mechanic warriors only after completing the handling and stripping process within fifteen minutes."

As for taking action to kill these mechanics directly, Link never made this plan.

Once they take action, all these mechanic warriors will die, which will surely attract the attention of the Mechanic City defense system. At that time, they will fight against the entire mechanic army. It is another matter whether Dave and Helen can escape. On the other hand, John's mission will also be affected.

Link seized the time and went downstairs quickly.

"The mechanic warrior comes to report! If the machine is not dead, long live the head of state!"

When the captain saw Link, a mechanic soldier with exoskeleton armor, he couldn't help but lit up and beat his chest and said in a deep voice: "The pioneer and the truth will last forever."

"Why are you in the energy center?" the captain asked after meeting.

When Link went downstairs, he had already thought of the words and said calmly: "I brought a new resurrection battery from the experimental area. I saw the captain's recruitment order as soon as I finished installing it."

The captain had no doubts. After all, the Immortality Plan has been in place for a while, and the energy center often has dead human batteries, which need to be manually disassembled and brought to the experimental area for regeneration.

"That's a coincidence. There's a task here to delegate you."

As soon as he finished speaking, a task prompt appeared in Link's system.

[You triggered the F-level mission [Temporary Request·Energy Center]]

[Task Tips: The transport team has two container bodies that need to be disinfected and stripped. As a mechanic, you are recruited and joined the mission ranks]

[Task Reward: 150 Experience, 50 Waste Land Coins]

Link looked at the long-lost F-level errands mission and didn't know how to complain for a while.

After the team leader arranged the task for Link, he shouted to his subordinates in the team behind him: "It's easy to work, and you must be unloaded in ten minutes. We have other tasks later!"

Other mechanics wailed: "Ten minutes!? Transport, disinfect and strip, how enough is this!"

Link didn't say anything nonsense and immediately joined the moving and running team to try to send off the group of plague gods within ten minutes. Helen, Dave and the mechanic warriors should not be in direct contact.

When Link brought the first coffin to the processing room, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.
