Chapter 691 New Discovery
While studying the robot's puzzling behavior patterns and extraordinary abilities, Bai Ye, Magneto, and the soldiers around him fell into an unprecedented state of contemplation and exploration. The night fell, but the lights in the laboratory were unusually bright. Each beam of light seemed to be a guide to explore the unknown, illuminating their way forward.
Bai Ye stood beside the wreckage of the robot, scanning the disassembled parts with sharp eyes.
"Look here," Magneto suddenly pointed to a seemingly ordinary metal plate and said, "The composition of this alloy...it shouldn't be here." There was a hint of surprise in his voice, and he obviously noticed something unusual.
Upon hearing this, Bai Ye immediately stepped forward to observe carefully. The metal plate emitted a faint blue light, and its texture was hard and extremely pure, obviously it had been carefully refined. He reached out and touched it gently, feeling a weak electric current jumping at his fingertips. At this moment, a bold hypothesis formed in his mind-this robot actually has the ability to disassemble and reassemble itself, and it strengthens itself by constantly scavenging and disassembling various alloys!
This discovery shocked everyone present. They began to re-examine the robot, no longer just seeing it as a cold mechanical monster, but as an intelligent being with the ability to evolve and adapt. If this ability falls into the wrong hands, the consequences will be disastrous.
However, just as they were deeply worried about this discovery, a more bizarre phenomenon attracted Bai Ye's attention. In a corner of the laboratory, in a forgotten fruit basket, several apples lay quietly, looking particularly tempting. Suddenly, the robot's eyes seemed to be attracted by these apples, and its mechanical arm moved slowly, accurately grabbed an apple, and then... it actually began to eat it!
This scene made everyone dumbfounded. They had never seen such an absurd and incredible scene. A robot, a machine made of metal and circuits, actually likes to eat apples? This simply subverted their cognition.
But soon, Bai Ye captured key information from this absurdity. He realized that this might be their opportunity to get rid of the threat of this robot. So he quickly summoned the soldiers and started an unprecedented "bait operation".
They collected a large number of apples, piled them in an open area outside the laboratory, and then carefully evacuated the scene, leaving only enough monitoring equipment to observe the robot's movements. Time passed by minute by minute, and the air was filled with a tense and expectant atmosphere.
Finally, the robot appeared again. Its eyes were attracted by the piles of apples at the first time, and the mechanical arm waved excitedly, as if it couldn't wait to enjoy this "feast". After confirming that there was no danger around, it slowly walked towards the pile of apples, and every step seemed so firm and resolute.
Bai Ye and Magneto witnessed all this through the monitoring screen, and they showed a long-lost smile on their faces. Although this solution seems a bit ridiculous, as long as they can get rid of this robot, any method is worth a try.
However, just when they thought everything would end smoothly, the robot suddenly stopped. It seemed to feel something abnormal, and the mechanical head slowly turned, and the lifeless eyes seemed to penetrate the screen and look directly at Bai Ye and Magneto behind the monitoring.
"Oops!" Bai Ye's heart tightened, and he realized that this robot might not be as simple as they imagined. Sure enough, the robot's mechanical arm swung violently, and a beam of energy instantly hit the monitoring equipment, and the screen suddenly went dark.
"It found us!" Magneto roared and immediately prepared to fight. But at this moment, the robot did not attack, but continued to walk towards the pile of apples. It seemed that it had made a decision to give up this dangerous place and pursue those "delicious" apples for it.
Bai Ye and Magneto looked at each other, and they saw relief and confusion in each other's eyes. They didn't understand why the robot made such a choice, but since it chose to leave, they naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity. So they quickly organized the soldiers to evacuate the scene, while closely monitoring the robot's movements, just in case.
In this way, the robot that once frightened everyone finally left the laboratory because of a pile of apples. But the mystery and questions it left behind are far from being solved. Bai Ye knew that this was just the beginning of their struggle with this unknown world. The road ahead was still long, full of unknowns and challenges. But no matter what, they would persist until all the truths were revealed.
Then, everyone planned to rest here for half an hour.
Half an hour of tranquility, like the brief peace before the storm, was completely broken by a deafening roar. In the sky, a black shadow cut through the clouds at an astonishing speed and approached where everyone was. The black shadow gradually enlarged, revealing a jaw-dropping outline-a giant robot with a huge body and complex structure. Its appearance instantly pushed the tension in the air to the extreme.
"Quick! Prepare for defense!" Bai Ye's voice was particularly calm in the chaos, and he quickly commanded the soldiers to enter combat status. However, even experienced warriors were afraid of this sudden behemoth. Magneto frowned even more. He could feel the powerful magnetic field fluctuations emanating from this newly appeared robot, which was a force he had never encountered before.
The giant robot landed steadily, making the ground tremble slightly with every step. Its appearance was completely different from the previous scavenger robots, but Bai Ye and Magneto realized an astonishing fact almost at the same time - this giant robot was transformed from the previous seemingly harmless scavenger robot that liked to eat apples! This discovery made their hearts sink to the bottom, and they realized that this battle was far more dangerous and complicated than they imagined.
"It...how did it become like this?" A soldier shouted in horror, his voice full of disbelief.
"It's not just scavenging, it's also collecting resources to strengthen itself." Bai Ye said solemnly, his gaze like a torch, as if he could penetrate the robot's shell and see the energy and will constantly surging inside it, "We Underestimating its intelligence and ambition.”
"If this continues, we won't be able to hold on for long!" A commander reported anxiously to Bai Yehui.
Bai Ye pursed her lips tightly, and her eyes quickly scanned the battlefield, looking for a possible turning point. He knew that this robot was no match for a head-to-head confrontation. They had to find its weakness or use some method to distract it.
At this moment, a thought flashed through Bai Ye's mind. He remembered that the previous scavenger robot had a special preference for apples. So, would this transformed giant robot also retain this habit? Although the idea may sound absurd, in a desperate situation, any glimmer of hope is worth trying.
"Everyone, collect all the apples immediately, and any food that may attract it!" Bai Ye ordered loudly, and at the same time signaled Magneto to temporarily stop the attack to avoid angering the out-of-control robot.
Although the soldiers were confused, they acted quickly and gathered all the apples and other food they could find in the laboratory and surrounding areas. Bai Ye personally selected dozens of the largest and reddest apples and placed them in a conspicuous position not far from the giant robot.
"I hope this will work." He prayed silently in his heart, while secretly clenching his fists, preparing to deal with any situation that might arise.
Sure enough, the giant robot's attention was quickly attracted to those apples. Its mechanical head rotates slowly, and its lifeless eyes seem to shine with greed. After a brief hesitation, it finally took heavy steps and walked towards the apples.
"Successful!" Bai Ye was delighted, but then he became wary. He knew that this robot would never give up its goal easily, and they must take this opportunity to evacuate.
"Retreat!" he ordered decisively, and the soldiers immediately evacuated in an orderly manner according to the predetermined plan. Magneto stayed at the end, using his magnetic power to buy more time for everyone to evacuate.
The giant robot was obviously aware of their intentions, but it seemed to have been deeply attracted by those apples. Even during the pursuit, it couldn't help but look back at those tempting fruits from time to time. This brief hesitation became the key to their escape.
Finally, under the full cover of Magneto, Bai Ye and all the soldiers successfully evacuated to a safe area. They looked back and saw that the giant robot was still standing there, holding a few apples in its mechanical arms and clumsily trying to eat them. This scene is both ridiculous and terrifying, making people feel deep awe and fear of the unknown power.
"We have to find out the origin and purpose of these robots as soon as possible." Bai Ye panted undecidedly, but had already begun to think about the next action plan, "Not only do they have powerful power and intelligence, but what is even more terrifying is that they seem to have the ability to evolve themselves. If it is not controlled, the consequences will be disastrous.”
Magneto nodded, his eyes shining with determination. "No matter where they come from, I will use my power to protect the peace of this world." His words revealed an unquestionable determination and confidence.
After this sudden battle, Bai Ye, Magneto, and all the soldiers knew that they were standing at a new starting point. The road ahead will be full of unknowns and challenges, but they are ready to face any storm that may come.
After successfully escaping the threat of the giant robot, Bai Ye and his team did not relax. They know that the robot with the ability to evolve itself is still a huge hidden danger and must be solved as soon as possible. After discussions at an emergency meeting, they decided to adopt an extreme but effective strategy - using Apple as bait to poison the robots.
"We can't let it continue to exist any longer." Bai Ye's voice was low and firm, and his eyes swept over everyone present to ensure that everyone could feel this determination, "It is beyond our control. "If it continues to evolve, the consequences will be disastrous."
Magneto agreed. He knew the threat of this robot and understood that the current situation was urgent. "I will use my ability to assist you and ensure that the plan goes smoothly." He promised.
So, Bai Ye immediately organized people to collect a batch of fresh apples. These apples were attractive in appearance and bright in color, enough to attract the attention of the giant robot. At the same time, they secretly contacted a chemical expert and asked him to make a special toxin targeting the mechanical structure. This toxin is colorless and odorless and can quickly corrode metal surfaces and penetrate into internal systems, causing fatal damage.
After intense preparations, the toxin was successfully extracted and injected into the apples. To ensure the uniform distribution of the toxin, each apple was carefully processed and no abnormalities were seen on the surface. Bai Ye personally checked each apple to ensure that they could become deadly weapons.
Next, it was a question of how to deliver these poisoned apples to the giant robot. They knew that it was almost impossible to approach the robot directly because its defense system and attack capabilities were extremely powerful. Therefore, they made a detailed plan to use the terrain and bunkers as cover to gradually approach the target.
The night fell, providing a natural cover for their actions. Bai Ye led a team and quietly sneaked into the area where the giant robot was located. They carefully avoided the patrolling sentinels and monitoring equipment, and approached the behemoth step by step.
When they finally came to a relatively safe position, Bai Ye signaled the soldiers to place the poisoned apples in a conspicuous position. These apples were carefully arranged into an attractive trap, waiting for the arrival of the giant robot.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the air was filled with a tense and expectant atmosphere. Finally, the giant robot seemed to smell the scent of apples. Its mechanical head slowly turned, and its lifeless eyes seemed to be attracted by some force, staring straight at the poisoned apples.
"Here they come!" Bai Ye whispered, his heartbeat accelerated, and cold sweat oozed from his palms. But he knew that he couldn't relax his vigilance now, and he had to wait until the robot was completely trapped before he could evacuate.
The giant robot did not disappoint them, and it walked towards the poisoned apples with heavy steps. Every step shook the ground slightly, as if even the air was shaking. When it finally came to the pile of apples, the mechanical arms stretched out without hesitation, grabbed one apple after another and began to eat.
Seeing this scene, Bai Ye and the soldiers held their breath, knowing that success or failure depended on this one move. Time passed by minute by minute, and the giant robot did not seem to notice anything unusual, and it still greedily ate the poisoned apples.
However, just when they thought the plan was about to succeed, the giant robot suddenly stopped. Its mechanical head began to shake violently, as if it was suffering from some kind of intense pain. Then, its body also began to show abnormal reactions, the metal surface began to corrode, bubble, and make a harsh sound.
"Success!" Bai Ye was delighted, he knew that the toxin had begun to take effect. He immediately signaled the soldiers to retreat, while paying close attention to the movements of the giant robot.
After struggling in pain for a while, the giant robot finally fell to the ground with a deafening sound. Its body was corroded by the toxin and was riddled with holes, and it could no longer move.
