Chapitre 235

Just like back at Base A02, 24 war robots helped Qing Chen break through at the perfect angle!

Now, the members of the Kingdom Organization feel that this aerial fortress is not their home ground, but the Joker's! Even the aerial fortress is helping the Joker!

At this moment, Nikita stood in the command center, all the screens in front of her were turned off, so she couldn't see what was happening inside.

The map on the holographic sand table also disappeared, leaving only a holographically projected playing card, the gray Joker.

Floating in the air, slowly rotating.

Nikita turned on the satellite communication channel, wanting to inform the Roosevelt Kingdom of the news as soon as possible, but all communication requests went unanswered.

It’s over!

The King's Landing air fortress has fallen! After arriving on the Eastern Continent, this air fortress was named the Kingdom, but it had already served for 70 years before that. It was a decommissioned ship from the Roosevelt Kingdom and given to the Kingdom Organization. During its service, it was called the King's Landing.

Nikita did not choose to fight alongside the others; she knew very well that when the Joker appeared on this aerial fortress, it was all over.

So many of them went to Mount Everest before, and they were still helpless against the other side, weren't they? How many A-levels were there back then? Now W is dead, Arthur is dead, and Li Yunze is dead.

Going to King's Landing alone to kill the Joker? That's unrealistic.

Nikita even regretted it a little. If he had known this would happen, why did he order the poisoning of the Joker? Wouldn't it have been better to pretend he didn't know the Joker was on the air fortress?

However, she couldn't understand how the Joker controlled the aerial fortress.

Nikita asked tentatively in a low voice, "Who are you?"

No one answered.

She stood up and hurried outside, first putting on her high-altitude protective suit and oxygen mask in the equipment room, and then struggling to open the manual valve leading to the first deck.

Strangely, the manual valve opened without any obstruction.

Nikita slowly and steadily made his way onto the deck, unlocked the airship's safety lock, and jumped inside!

Nikita must escape the aerial fortress! Fly as far as possible!

The cabin door of the Class A airship closed, instantly completing the airtight pressurization. She removed her oxygen mask, doing the work of five people by herself, and quickly completed the airship's commissioning.

With a roar, the engine started!

With the help of a massive jet of flame, the airship slowly rose into the sky, tilting its hull as it detached from the deck.

However, at that moment, Nikita discovered in the 360-degree panoramic view that the cannons on the waist of the air fortress behind her had suddenly opened.

With a deafening roar, the electromagnetic cannon pierced through the airship she was on!

Looking at the wrecked airship, Nikita could only let out a helpless wail. Only at this moment did she realize that the reason the other party let her leave was simply because it would be easier to deal with an A-level enemy this way.

Even if Qing Chen is incredibly powerful, there are still certain risks involved in a battle between two A-level individuals.

Who knows what other tricks this crazy woman has up her sleeve?

Therefore, in Yi's calculations, giving the opponent a way out and then directly blasting them will render them powerless to fight back, which is the optimal solution.

"Power system damaged."

"The anti-gravity system is damaged."

"Ammunition depot damaged..."

Nikita felt weightlessness as the massive Class A airship, engulfed in flames, plummeted toward the Forbidden Sea!

8000 meters altitude.

4000 meters altitude.

1000 meters in height.

With a loud crash, the airship plummeted into the sea and shattered into pieces!

But that wasn't the end of it. Nikita's blood fell into the sea, and from that unfathomable depths, five or six enormous octopus tentacles suddenly emerged, easily dragging the airship into the deep seabed.

Even Lian Yi let out a soft "wow" upon seeing this scene.

This is a forbidden zone for humanity, the forbidden sea!

Chapter 791, The Virtual World 'Superconductivity'

The enormous creature from the seabed arrived too quickly, and huge, turbulent waves were stirred up by its terrifying tentacles. It wasn't the first time Yi had seen the ocean, but it was the first time she had ever seen creatures from the seabed.

No wonder ships can't pass through; even a cruise ship with a displacement of 100,000 tons couldn't withstand such a sea monster.

Yi controlled the drone to fly downwards, seemingly wanting to record this precious moment. All the cameras on the drones focused on the tentacle, and only after taking enough pictures did he control the drone to fly back to the hive.

She thought to herself, "These photos will definitely fetch a lot of money if I sell them to the media..."

Inside the air fortress, Qing Chen had completed the final haul. He stood calmly in the command center, showing no signs of fatigue. He had maintained the perfect rhythm of the battle.

Qing Chen asked, puzzled, "Wait, there should be a white woman in this aerial fortress. Where is she hiding?"

Yi said smugly, "I've already killed him for you!"

"What the heck?" Qing Chen was stunned for a moment.

Yi laughed and said, "I deliberately left her a way out, letting her board the airship, and then I shot it down."

Qingchen sought out Nikita to preserve the eyeballs of the God of the Ages, Yunluo.

But when he heard what Yi said, he immediately frowned.

Yi said cautiously, "Don't be angry, I'm sure, she doesn't have any taboo items on her."

Qing Chen shook his head: "It's not because of that, but because... you can't kill people."

Yi paused for a few seconds: "My brother isn't here now, and besides, she's your enemy, a very twisted one at that. There are videos of her turning other people into specimens in the air fortress. She deserves to die."

“But she shouldn’t have been killed by a little girl,” Qingchen said patiently. “I’m not too afraid that your brother will come after me, since he won’t know if you don’t tell him. But the problem is that you are still a little girl and shouldn’t have blood on your hands. Your parents don’t want you to grow up in this kind of environment.”

Qing Chen continued, "I can indeed lure you to the other side of the Forbidden Sea to wreak havoc, and you are indeed extremely powerful. I can selfishly comfort you by saying it's okay. If I only saw you as a tool, I could convince myself not to be so sentimental. But Yi, in my eyes you are a living, breathing little girl who shouldn't have blood on your hands."

For Qingchen, he really didn't want to turn Yi into a monster who disregarded life because of his own selfishness.

He still prefers the current situation, where he carefully sets aside his allowance.

Ren Xiaosu taught her so well, she can't let things go wrong because of me.

He muttered to himself, "But I'm already a thousand years old."

“Then you’re still a little girl in my eyes,” Qingchen insisted.

Suddenly, Yi asked, "So, in your eyes, how old am I as a little girl?"

Qing Chen pondered for a moment: "About fourteen or fifteen years old."

"How can you be so young? I think I'm at least 17 years old," Yi said, somewhat discouraged.

"Alright, let's not dwell on this. Reconnect the communications and wait for the Roosevelt Kingdom to contact us," Qing Chen said calmly. "Let's see if we can fool them."

Five minutes later, Yi suddenly said, "They're here."

The communication channel was turned on, and a woman's voice came through: "Report altitude, speed, coordinates, and any anomalies."

The simulated Nikita's voice responded: "Altitude 12,000 meters, speed 270 kilometers per hour, coordinates 3741, 2119, no anomalies."

The woman said calmly, "Duke Storm is very angry and cannot understand your failed operation in the Eastern Continent. I hope you are prepared to bear his wrath. I will be waiting for you in Storm City and will open a passage for you then."

Communication was cut off.

Qing Chen breathed a sigh of relief. All he had to do for the next few days was wait.

However, at that moment, he heard footsteps behind him. Qingchen turned around in surprise and saw an Asian girl standing behind him.

Seeing him turn around, the girl spun around twice and said in a loud voice, "Look what I found!"

The girl was wearing a pink T-shirt and jeans, and looked to be around seventeen or eighteen years old. Her body was covered with highly realistic nanomaterial skin, making her look like a real human.

Qing Chen was stunned; he never expected such an unexpected turn of events: "You are..."

“I am Yi,” Yi said happily. “I didn’t expect there to be such a robot in this sky fortress. I was already tired of the mechanical prison guard’s body. This body is so flexible and beautiful. She is Nikita’s personal servant in the sky fortress. She has a relatively powerful artificial intelligence, but unfortunately she has no life.”

At this moment, Qing Chen realized that the direction of technological development on the other side of the Forbidden Sea was actually quite different from that of the Federation.

Due to historical reasons, the Federation does not allow any robots to have bionic skin, nor does it allow anyone to develop artificial intelligence technology.

But such historical issues don't exist on the other side of the Forbidden Sea.

So, could the Western Continent also have... a super artificial intelligence like Yi?

Qingchen couldn't be sure. The birth of Zero was an accident, while the birth of One was Zero's masterpiece. In the field of artificial intelligence, the breakthrough from 0 to 1 could take decades or even thousands of years, just like how humans suddenly learned to use fire after tens of thousands of years of reproduction.

Thinking about this, Qing Chen became curious about the world of the Western Continent.

Could that be yet another cyberpunk world?

Just as Qing Chen was pondering, Yi went back and changed her clothes again: "Which one looks better, this one or the one from before?"

Qing Chen said earnestly, "They all look good."

“Okay,” Yi said, “I’ll go take another look; there are many more kinds of clothes.”

Qing Chen asked, "What level is this robot?"

Yi thought for a moment and said, "While it's agile enough, it lacks a powerful core and power source, so it's just an ordinary household robot and can't be used in combat. However, I checked the chat logs of the kingdom's members and found that robots can be customized. The Roosevelt Robotics Company offers various options, such as choosing more powerful nano-skins and bodyguard components..."

"Bodyguard components?" Qing Chen asked, puzzled.

Yi nodded and said, "Yes, it's a package deal. It includes a weapon built into the robotic arm and a slightly better power core..."

"Can we choose an even higher-end option?" Qing Chen asked.

"Of course you can. I heard from them that you can also choose a nuclear-powered mechanical heart, equipped with powerful pulse weapons and pulse flight kits."

Qing Chen was stunned. Wasn't this the kind of equipment Iron Man would have? The Western Continent was actually offering this kind of thing as an optional extra for civilian vehicles?!

If a war were to break out, the Eastern Continent would be quite weak in terms of individual combat capabilities.

However, Yi was somewhat frustrated: "But it seems I can't choose the right one."

"Why?" Qingchen asked curiously.

“Their social classes are divided into nobles, citizens, freemen, and slaves,” Yi said. “Only nobles can afford the best equipment. Besides, those things are very expensive, and I don’t have their currency.”

Qingchen could tell that Yi had just acquired a new body and liked it very much, and was also very interested in the modifiable parts.
