Chapter 372: People in the Cave

"Is this another hidden copy?"

Ye Li muttered to himself in confusion.

However, he did not relax.

"How is the world outside?"

Suddenly, the figure at the end of the corridor spoke.

The voice was a little hoarse and a little obscure.

It's like I haven't spoken for a long time and I have almost forgotten how to pronounce it.

Ye Li did not immediately respond to the other party's question and asked cautiously: "Who are you?"

He needs to first confirm whether this person is an enemy or a friend.

If it's an enemy, there's no need to talk nonsense, just kill it with one shot.

"Jack S or something...I forgot...it's been too long since I've said my name to anyone else."

The figure said slowly, with a hint of confusion and helplessness in his tone.

Ye Li frowned slightly, secretly curious in his heart.

It seems that in every movie or novel there is always a type of person who seems to have memory problems and can't even remember their own name.

However, if a person's life is only a few hundred years, and the name he has used since birth, even if he is not mentioned again for a long time, will he really be completely forgotten?

"How is the world outside?"

Jack asked again.

"It's desolate, with rust and thorns everywhere, even the grass is made of iron..." Ye Li simply described the scene he saw.

"It still sounds as bad as ever," Jack suddenly lamented.

Ye Li frowned deeper and deeper, and couldn't help but complain in his heart: Hey, hey, what are you feeling about?

"Who are you?" Ye Li asked again.

"Scientists... are still very top-notch..."

Jack said.

There was a bit of weariness in his voice, but it was not hard to hear it from his tone.

He is very proud of this identity.

"Are you here to help me?" Ye Li asked again.

"No..." Jack shook his head.

Ye Li's heart sank, and his eyes became cold and stern again.

"I need your help!" Jack continued suddenly.

(⊙o⊙)…

Ye Li was speechless for a while: Brother, can you stop breathing so much when you speak? Don't you know that this will kill people?

Although Ye Li was a little crazy, he still asked with doubts on his face: "Can I help you?"

"You're also helping yourself!" Jack said slowly.

"..."

Ye Li swore that he really wanted to shoot now.

Ye Li resisted the urge and asked again: "What do you mean?"

"How long have you been in this world?" Jack suddenly asked.

Ye Li's heart tightened and he couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at Jack a few more times.

This guy actually knows that he is from somewhere else?

Seeing that Ye Li remained silent, Jack continued: "Don't be curious, I know you are not from this world!"

"How do you know?"

Ye Li seemed to have turned into a curious baby at this moment, with a hundred thousand whys in his mind.

Jack replied calmly: "Because people in this world...should...all become robots..."

His voice was very low, containing endless sadness and helplessness.

Ye Li frowned slightly and continued to ask: "Those robots...are they really human beings?"

This just confirmed his original guess.

The robots driving the survivors' vehicles simply didn't kill the survivors and robbed the survivors of their vehicles.

Instead, he was turned into a robot because he failed the mission.

This is the punishment for failing a mission in this world.

Jack nodded slightly: "Yes."

Ye Li's heart became heavier. He didn't want to become that shabby guy, driving around in a car.

"Why do people become robots?" Ye Li asked.

"When you came to this world... you should have noticed... that there has always been... a red light-emitting ball in the sky... right?

Just like the sun... almost..."

Jack struggled to finish speaking as if he was gasping for air.

"Well, it does." Ye Li nodded.

In the direction of the highway, there is a red ball floating in the sky.

Ye Li always thought it was the sun of this world.

Although the ball has indeed never changed its orientation.

But Ye Li had experienced eternal night and extreme day before, so he simply noticed some unusual natural phenomena in this world and didn't think too much about it.

At this moment, when Jack reminded him, Ye Li suddenly realized: "Is that thing causing the ghost?"

"That's not a real sun, but an artificial sun called... Steel, Fierce Sun."

Jack's tone suddenly became serious.

After speaking, as if all the strength in his body had been exhausted, his body stooped slightly and he began to breathe heavily.

"Steel...scorching sun?"

It sounds pretty awesome.

"A very powerful advanced technology product is the lifelong effort of me... and my scientific research partner. It should have been used to make a huge contribution to the development of mankind..."

Jack's voice suddenly became quieter and quieter, and by the end, it was inaudible.

Ye Li pricked up his ears and tried hard to hear what Jack was saying, but he only heard a vague murmur and Jack's moving mouth.

"How about you speak louder?"

Ye Li couldn't help but interject.

This feeling of having gossip right in front of you but not hearing it is really a bit maddening.

"I'll say it again..." Jack suddenly raised his head and said slowly: "A super technology that surpasses all previous technologies."

Ye Li frowned and repeated: "Steel Sun?"

"Huh?"

Jack said in confusion, as if he had come to his senses, dragging his body that seemed to collapse at any time and walked forward a few steps. A look of disbelief flashed across the half of his face that still retained flesh and blood: "You actually know, Steel Sun?"

Ye Li rolled his eyes: "Hey, didn't you just say that?"

"Oh, sorry, my physical condition has been deteriorating, and my memory is getting worse and worse. Sometimes I forget what I just said the next second. Don't mind it." Jack smiled apologetically, and then asked: "Then where were we just talking about?"

Ye Li sighed deeply and reminded: "Steel Sun!"

"Ah, yes, yes, Steel Sun."

Jack nodded, a bitter smile appeared on his face, and then fell into silence again.

Ye Li stared at Jack with wide eyes, feeling very anxious.

The two looked at each other for a long time, and no one spoke.

Just when Ye Li finally couldn't help but speak, Jack suddenly said: "The Iron Sun is an extremely terrifying weapon that can turn all materials in the world into steel."
