Chapter 984: Severe Damage
"The machine has a fault, and it is being repaired..."
"The signal collection equipment is damaged and is being repaired. It is expected to take thirteen hours..."
"The energy consumption is too high and needs to be replenished. Energy is being collected..."
"The energy is sufficient to start repairing..."
The Rubik's Cube has just woken up. After checking, it was found that the machine of this ordinary mechanical soldier was seriously damaged. Two mechanical arms were broken, and one mechanical leg was missing. The sound and image collection equipment in the head were damaged. He could only feel sparks flashing all over his body. He sighed that what he feared would come true. If he didn't have enough energy, he might really get permanent residence on the planet.
After more than 20 hours, the Rubik's Cube gave priority to repairing one of his mechanical arms and mechanical eyes and other signal collection equipment. The mechanical eye collected video images again.
The dull mechanical eye flashed a red glow, attracting a curious animal to take a closer look.
"What the hell is this?"
The first thing he saw when he opened his eyes was not other mechanical soldiers but a long face of an animal that looked like a monkey. It stood on two legs in the wreckage of the spaceship. Many monkeys around him used their four arms to grab the cables that were still flashing sparks and swing around to play with the wreckage of the spaceship as a playground. Did all the other mechanical soldiers die in the plane crash? The anxious Rubik's Cube began to search for signals from other mechanical soldiers. Sadly, there was no signal at all. It was not shielded, but it really did not receive any signal...
The monkey was still staring at the Rubik's Cube and even tried to reach out and fiddle with the mechanical eye.
"Get out of here!"
The Rubik's Cube slapped the monkey away with a slap from the mechanical arm that had just been repaired. The Rubik's Cube struggled to sit up slowly.
"Squeak!"
"Oh~ It doesn't look good..."
It seemed that beating the monkey caused dissatisfaction among the monkeys. One by one, the monkeys grabbed the wreckage of the spaceship or the steel frame or the arm of a mechanical soldier on the ground and approached the Rubik's Cube. They even knew how to use tools! The monkeys' IQ is really not low! If I let these monkeys beat me up again today, I might really be scrapped here. The Rubik's Cube used a mechanical arm to support himself and tried to retreat and hide in the gap of the spaceship wreckage. When he glanced at the wreckage, an object was suddenly marked by the computer with a green icon. It was a pistol! A standard pistol for mechanical soldiers! It can fire energy bullets and ordinary bullets, and the magazine is full!
Turning around and throwing the Rubik's Cube, he stretched out his mechanical arm and crawled forward to grab the pistol. The irritable monkeys behind him were about to get close!
Ten centimeters away... Five centimeters away... The mechanical foot was attacked by the monkey! One centimeter away...
The mechanical arm finally grabbed the pistol and turned around suddenly. It happened to see that the monkey who had just been slapped was holding a steel frame of the spaceship and was about to smash it down. If it smashed it hard, the whole mechanical head would be broken! He raised the gun and aimed quickly, not caring whether the head was locked or not, and pulled the trigger directly!
Bang! Bang bang!
After firing three bullets in a row, the strange monkey was knocked back by the impact of the bullets, and the steel frame in his hand hit another monkey's head, which really broke open. After knocking one monkey away, the Rubik's Cube continued to aim at other monkeys and shoot, killing six monkeys in succession. Seeing this, the remaining strange monkeys screamed, threw away their debris, climbed up the tree along the vines, and disappeared without a trace.
"It's true, force is the common language of all worlds..."
The Cube sighed, seeing that his body was broken beyond repair, he simply didn't want to repair it. He crawled to the wreckage of several mechanical soldiers nearby and disassembled the intact parts that could still be used to replace himself, the other arm, two mechanical legs, full body armor, head armor, and pistols and assault rifles. He also brought bayonets, which were a must for Tang swords, and grenades. He brought a few more magazines to save himself from consuming energy to make bullets...
It took half a night for the Cube to repair himself. Fortunately, the parts of the same model could be interchangeable. After standing up and returning to normal, the Cube dragged all the mechanical soldier wreckage into the wreckage of the spacecraft and put it away. He then pressed the wreckage with heavy steel plates of the spacecraft, took out a short-range signal transmitter and installed it inside the wreckage. When he found the mechanical fleet in the future, he would take away all the dead mechanical soldiers. Their home was in the fleet and on the mechanical planet, not here.
After the busy work was over, the sky in the distance was already bright. The Cube turned on the engine machine and poured out a special pungent oil for the engine around the wreckage to prevent wild beasts from coming here to make trouble. The smell of the pungent oil would drive away those animals.
After sorting everything out, the Cube climbed up a tree and confirmed the surrounding terrain. There was a high mountain in the distance. The Cube decided to go to the top of the mountain to make some eye-catching signs to facilitate the fleet's search in the future. The Cube holding an assault rifle and carrying ammunition carefully entered the dark forest...
"Start environmental detection."
The detection equipment was turned on, and various data appeared on the mechanical eye screen in front of him.
The oxygen content in the air was extremely low, the ultraviolet intensity was moderate, the air pressure was three times that of the earth, the gravity was 1.5 times that of the earth, the temperature was around 26 degrees, and the humidity was very high.
The plants in the forest were extremely tall, such as trees, the lowest height was more than 100 meters, and the highest was estimated to be more than 300 meters. The trunks were extremely thick and it was no problem to drive on them. The vines were dense, and the huge canopy blocked the sunlight. The fallen leaves under each foot could submerge the mechanical feet. The plants and animals were similar to those on Shenwu Continent or Earth, but completely different. For example, most animals had two more legs than animals on Earth. Horse-like creatures had a total of six legs, while Earth only had four. Not to mention plants, the Cube walked more than a kilometer and did not see even one plant that was the same as Earth's.
“Ga ga ga~”
Some beast on the treetop screamed at the Rubik's Cube. Perhaps it was not sure whether the Rubik's Cube walking on the ground could be eaten or whether it was cost-effective. The Rubik's Cube looked at the little beast and continued to push away the dense weeds and move forward.
Fortunately, there were infrared detection and mechanical eyes to confirm whether there was any danger. There were all kinds of predatory plants everywhere, and beasts were everywhere. It walked one kilometer in a straight line, but it actually walked three kilometers in a curve. It can be seen how difficult it is to move forward in the forest. I don't know how long it will take to get to the mountain at this speed.
"Quack~"
An eight-legged frog jumped up and landed on the muzzle of the gun, looking at the Rubik's Cube and quacking. The computer showed that the frog was non-toxic and threatening. The Rubik's Cube breathed a sigh of relief and threw the eight-legged frog away with a strong swing.
It was too slow to move with a gun. The Rubik's Cube put away the gun and pulled out the Tang sword. He chopped back and forth to cut the weeds and cleared a passage. He didn't care about any poisonous spiders or poisonous snakes, just walked forward. Those things were willing to bite, and as long as they could bite, they could release poison at will. At worst, they could find time to repaint.
As they were chopping, they suddenly heard the roar of some giant beast in front of them, and even the odor collection equipment could sense the strong smell of bad breath...
