Chapter 395 Sneaking into the Central District, Tazan Building
Qiao Yu was happily modifying the code, but Teng Ling was suffering.
She bit her lip, forcing herself not to make a sound. The feeling of having her core code modified was extremely unpleasant.
It felt like something was churning inside her body.
"Finally done!"
After some tinkering, Qiao Yu's eyes lit up.
Without violating the core logic of Teng Ling's code, he added several new instructions.
Something like prioritizing Qiao Yu's words as the first action directive. However, this was Qiao Yu's first attempt at modifying a robot's code, and he didn't know if it would succeed.
After the modification, Teng Ling was covered in sweat, her eyes glazed over. For some reason, Qiao Yu felt that after the modification, Teng Ling's gaze towards him carried a strange emotion.
But he didn't dwell on it. Surrounded by the members of the Human Protection Association, Qiao Yu and Teng Ling arrived at the entrance of the central district.
The central district of the Mechanical Maze was significantly more prosperous than other areas.
Huge gears turned incessantly, providing energy to the central district.
The central district was like a city within a city. As soon as Qiao Yu and the others arrived at the entrance, they were stopped by two guards.
"What's your business? Do you have a pass?"
The guard frowned at the members of the Human Protection Association. When he saw Qiao Yu, a pure human, a look of undisguised disgust flashed in his eyes.
"We are members of the Human Protection Association! We want to see the city lord!"
"Yes! We want to see the city lord! Mechanical enforcers are abusing humans! We must inform the city lord and ask him to uphold justice!"
The members of the Human Protection Association shouted.
"Oh? I see! So you're the legendary Human Protection Association!"
Upon hearing this, the guard's face showed a look of sudden realization.
The members of the Human Protection Association became even more arrogant.
The next moment, the guard put the intercom system installed on his arm to his mouth.
"There's a mechanical rebellion at the east gate, about twenty people. Requesting armed support."
The members of the Human Protection Association instantly tensed up.
It had to be said, the central district's defense force was efficient. In less than half a minute, nearly forty guards surrounded the Human Protection Association. The group instantly cowered.
They dared to bully Moro and Hua Shuo because there were few of them, and mechanical enforcers couldn't attack robots who hadn't committed any crimes.
But these guards were different. They would really dare to tear off two of your mechanical arms for fun.
At this moment, Qiao Yu also realized that something was wrong. It seemed difficult to get in.
Under the cover of the Human Protection Association's robots, Qiao Yu took out the Dark Staff and waved it gently.
A small skeleton randomly appeared behind a lucky guard, and then Qiao Yu launched a necromantic bomb, and the small skeleton self-destructed, blowing the guard away.
Although the guard was only slightly injured, this act undoubtedly angered the other guards.
"These idiots usually just cause trouble in the outer city, but now they dare to cause trouble in the central district and even attack the guard team? Brothers! Charge!"
At the order, a large group of guards instantly launched an attack. Various laser cannons and laser beams began to rain down on the members of the Human Protection Association.
The members of the Human Protection Association were also dumbfounded. They looked at each other, not realizing who had attacked.
But at this moment, the guard team's attack had already arrived, and they could only be forced to defend themselves.
"What?! They dare to resist? Kill them without mercy!"
The guard team's attacks became even more fierce.
Rumble!
The entrance of the central district's east gate was filled with gunfire, and explosions erupted continuously.
Although they didn't know why they were fighting, the two groups were locked in a fierce battle.
While they were fighting fiercely, two figures quietly slipped out of the center of the battle and walked towards the central district.
"Tsk, I really have to thank these Human Protection Association people later."
Qiao Yu looked back at the city gate still in battle. Most of the members of the Human Protection Association had been subdued, and only a few were putting up a desperate resistance.
He brushed his clothes and left, deeply concealing his achievements and fame.
Finding Hua Jun as soon as possible was what he should be doing now. Qiao Yu turned around with Teng Ling and slipped into the nearby alley.
A robot leading a human pet walked down the street. Their combination didn't arouse suspicion from others in the central district.
"Are you sure that mechanical engineer named Hua Jun is in that building?"
Qiao Yu asked Teng Ling, looking at a tall building in the distance.
The tall building was full of cyberpunk style, and robots were constantly flying in and out of the sky.
A cursory glance revealed that this building was the tallest main building in the entire Mechanical Maze.
Teng Ling nodded and said.
"Not only Engineer Hua Jun, but the city lord of the Mechanical Maze and other important figures are basically in this tall building."
"Therefore, this building, called Tazan Tower, is also the most heavily guarded place in the entire Mechanical Maze. We can't possibly sneak in on our own."
Qiao Yu stroked his chin and pondered.
"It's okay, if we can't sneak in, we'll wait until night when the defense force is weaker and infiltrate! Between two and three o'clock is the easiest time to get sleepy!"
"Um..." Teng Ling's expression was a little awkward: "Do you think there's a possibility... that robots don't need to sleep?"
Qiao Yu: "......Then let's go now."
Since there was no difference between day and night, they might as well leave now.
However, a sinister voice sounded.
"Leave? I'm afraid you can't!"
The figures of Moro and Hua Shuo walked out from the corner. Moro's face still had a grin, and he slowly tapped the long stick in his hand.
"You human are really audacious. It's one thing to sneak into the central district, but you actually want to sneak into Tazan Tower! You deserve to die ten thousand times."
Then Moro looked at Teng Ling. Moro had heard her conversation with Qiao Yu clearly.
"And you! As a robot, you actually collude with a human! You have disgraced all of us robots! Come over here now!" Moro's face was full of disgust.
Faced with Moro's questioning, Teng Ling didn't speak, but stood quietly beside Qiao Yu.
Moro became even more angry when he saw this.
"Since you are so stubborn, then don't blame me, a fellow robot, for being ruthless!"
Moro waved his long stick and smashed it towards Teng Ling's head.
As a mechanical enforcer, Moro originally had the right to execute other robots, and what Teng Ling had done was no different from betraying the robots.
Actually revealing information about Tazan Tower to a human was simply unforgivable!
The top of the long stick flashed with blue light, and electric arcs danced. Moro's move was obviously using all his strength!
Clang!
The scene of Teng Ling's head exploding as imagined did not appear. The long stick was blocked by a black and white long knife, making a sound of metal colliding.
"Buddy, you have to see who the owner is before you hit the dog. Are you looking down on me, a human, by attacking my mechanical pet like this?"
