Chapter 373: No Hope, No Disappointment
"No matter what it is, whether it is humans, vegetation, plastic, cloth, or even earth and stone, as long as it is exposed to the scorching sun of steel for a long time, it will turn into steel."
Jack's voice trembled slightly, as if he was recalling something terrible.
Ye Li immediately asked: "How long will it take?"
Jack was stunned for a moment, seeming to have recovered from his memories.
He looked at Ye Li, a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes, and said, "Oh? You are very good at grasping the key points!"
"Nonsense, you talked a lot, but this seems to be the main point!"
Ye Li complained crazily in his heart, but with a humble smile on his face, he continued to ask: "So, how long will it take?"
Jack was silent for a moment, and then said slowly: "Seven days!"
"Seven days?"
Ye Li was surprised and frowned.
The first three worlds took at least 10 days to clear.
"After seven days, all creatures exposed to the blazing iron sun will turn into robots within an hour!"
Jack said seriously.
He even raised his already mechanized arm: "Just like this!"
"What does it feel like to become a robot?" Ye Li asked curiously.
"Puppet, a puppet controlled by the iron sun, tireless, without freedom, living only by instructions, what do you think it will feel like?" Jack asked.
His voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of pain that could not be concealed.
"It must feel unpleasant." Ye Li said softly.
“o(￣ヘ￣o#)hum…”
Jack smiled helplessly.
"Then why didn't you become a robot?" Ye Li asked curiously.
Jack pointed to the ball with a light blue halo embedded in his forehead: "Because of this."
"We call it the core of technology." Jack explained helplessly: "This thing has been helping me resist the ironization of my body. However, you can also see that it is effective, but it is not completely useful. More than half of my body has already developed symptoms. Ironized, even if I keep hiding in this hole, I will completely turn into a robot before long."
"So, you want me to help you destroy that Iron Sun?"
Ye Li has now basically guessed the mission in this world.
However, the system this time is also very dark, with no prompts at all.
If he hadn't met the NPC, with his unhurried speed, he wouldn't have been able to reach the final destination in seven days.
"Yes." Jack nodded and explained: "As long as the Iron Sun can be destroyed, the world may become what it was before."
Ye Li asked curiously: "What if you can't change back to your original appearance?"
Faced with this question, Jack's eyes suddenly became stiff, and his whole person seemed to be deep in thought.
After a while, he slowly spoke: "No matter what, we have to leave a little hope for ourselves, right?"
After hearing this, Ye Li immediately retorted: "If there is no hope, there will be no disappointment!"
Jack's body trembled violently, and then he fell into silence for a long time.
Ye Li continued to ask: "It shouldn't be easy to destroy that thing, right?"
Jack said calmly: "That's natural. If you want to destroy the Iron Sun, you have to defeat Vic first."
"Vic? Your brother?" Ye Li asked curiously.
The main reason is that the names of the two people are really similar.
"My partner, who is also a researcher at the core of science and technology, is a scientist who is more powerful than me. He created the Iron Sun with his own hands," Jack said.
Ye Li smelled the gossip again.
However, now is obviously not the time to ask: "How far is it from the destination?"
Jack said: "Less than 30,000 kilometers."
Ye Li's current RV's maximum speed is 300 kilometers per hour.
30,000 divided by 300 equals 100 hours.
Even if we kept driving at full speed and traveled day and night, it would still take more than 4 days to get there.
"It's really a long way to go!" Ye Li sighed.
Jack didn't respond, just stood there quietly, looking at Ye Li calmly, as if waiting for his answer.
Ye Li took a deep breath, and then said slowly: "Okay, I promise you."
"but......"
Ye Li's voice suddenly changed, a cunning light flashed in his eyes, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a sly smile: "You are a scientist after all, you should have some particularly awesome weapons and equipment that you can lend me. Use it?"
Vic shook his head and said, "No!"
There was no hesitation at all.
After Ye Li heard this, he couldn't help curling his lips and said jokingly: "We are both scientists. Look at you, and then look at your partner. Why is there such a big gap? Now I seriously doubt whether you are his partner or his partner. "Assistant."
"Vic is indeed a very amazing scientist. His talent and wisdom are unparalleled. If it weren't for that incident, maybe the world would not be what it is today." Jack sighed.
"Oh? What is it? Tell me quickly!"
Ye Li suddenly became interested.
It only takes a little more than four days to reach the destination.
With Xiao Ai driving automatically, Ye Li was not particularly anxious.
Even if he was delayed on the way by something, he was sure that he could arrive within 7 days.
Now, he could listen to the gossip before leaving.
Jack sighed deeply: "This matter is a long story..."
"Let's make it short." Ye Li said.
Jack took a few steps back and suddenly sat down.
Ye Li took a flashlight and scanned under Jack's buttocks.
When he saw what it was clearly, Ye Li's pupils shrank suddenly.
Jack was sitting on a resource box.
The resource box was made of black and gold materials.
It was a new quality resource box that Ye Li had never found before.
Jack did not notice Ye Li's gaze. After he sat on the resource box, he seemed to be completely relaxed. He hugged his knees with both hands and curled up.
"That happened a long, long, long time ago..."
Jack suddenly spoke.
The voice was not loud, and Ye Li was standing at a position where he could just hear it.
"At that time, Vic had a girlfriend..."
Jack's eyes were dazed, as if he was completely immersed in memories.
Seeing this, Ye Li walked forward cautiously.
The sound that could be heard from that position was too small, just like a mosquito flying by your ear.
Until he reached the end of the corridor, the space in front suddenly opened up.
Ye Li then discovered that Jack was in a spacious basement.
In the corner of the room, there were also many broken robot wreckages.
