33. The Fall of the Natural Church
"Is it the capital you cast into your net? Hum...... There are indeed some skills. β
One of the elders snorted softly and spoke into the void.
The control room remains the same, with various precision instruments on the edge of the polygonal room, as well as electromagnetic pulse devices.
The Church of Nature is wary of AI 1.
There were only nine people standing here, and except for two believers, the remaining seven were all elders.
They may well be the last enemies.
There were a few bloody trails on the ground, all the way to the gate.
Something seems to have happened here. Maybe before Mu Su and the others came, a screening started here, and the losers were all outside the door.
This explains the problem of piles of corpses and a clean control room outside the door.
[This is it, this is it!] Put me on it! ]
The AIC starts on its own without waking up, shouting and screaming.
Mu Su approached the artificial intelligence with a twisted Yangge-like pace, and naturally taught a few people to raise their gunpowder weapons and aim at the ...... Empty space.
"Don't shoot!" Mu Su looked frightened and raised his hands.
"Isn't it strange to see that we are still sane? You are too complacent. If you were an hour late, it might have been a different consequence. But now ......"
A gray-robed elder spoke silently, familiar to the three of themβthe voice on the radio.
"It's a big loss for us...... You can be proud enough. Now, it's game over. β
The church member pulls the trigger.
Joyce frowned suddenly, feeling as if she had overlooked something.
"Be careful!"
Mu Su's eyes were torn, and he turned around and rushed towards Lena, opening his arms to protect Lena completely in front of him.
In the midst of the gunfire, Lena witnessed Mu Su's show with a blank face throughout the whole process.
Mu Su bit the tip of his tongue, squeezed out a trace of saliva as blood, looked at Lina affectionately, and said softly: "The murderer is ......"
Lena resisted the urge to complain.
Bullets rained down on the empty walls. After a few seconds, they stopped, calmly staring at the bullet-riddled walls.
"It's finally over, and these bastards are causing us a lot of trouble."
"But they're losers now." The elder swapped out a new magazine and removed his hood, revealing a face full of beards.
The two gangs don't cross paths with each other, and each plays its own game. Mu Su was curious about the hallucinations they generated.
Joyce's eyebrows furrowed even deeper.
The elders of the Natural Church are not combatants, so since the battle is over, why would they want to change bullets at the same time......
The elder and the rest of the elders stepped closer to the empty space, and the few people who had been huddled together pulled away.
"Get down!"
But at this moment, Joyce shouted!
His dark eyes tightened, and he suddenly fell to his stomach, covering his head with his arms.
Lina was still stunned, when she suddenly saw the muzzle of the people of the Natural Church raised again, and it was aimed at this side!
Everything seems to slow down. Erupting fiery snakes, muzzles up, golden bullets swirling and rushing out, leaving a trail of fluctuating air.
A figure suddenly swooped down from the side, protecting Lina.
This time, Lena was no longer expressionless.
Countless bullets drilled into Musu's back, penetrating the skin, flesh, and internal organs, and piled up on his chest.
Mu Su didn't have to bite the tip of his tongue anymore, blood oozed from the corner of his lips. His brow furrowed in pain, but his eyes were full of affection.
Mu Su opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but only blood foam choked up. He was thrust forward by the power of the bullet and crashed into Lena's arms, crushing her and protecting her underneath.
"The Shadow of Evil has betrayed us!"
Lina stared at Mu Su's pale face in a daze, and shouted in surprise.
Joyce, who had been lying on his stomach in advance, noticed the muzzle of the gun on the opposite side moving down, and quickly rolled to the side. The bullet followed, leaving a trail at his immediate location.
The Church Elder was completely based on the footage provided by Artificial Intelligence 1, resulting in a slight slower reaction.
"Nope. The Shadow of Evil only works on humans, and artificial intelligence is not affected. They knew this, and they deliberately made us and the Shadows of Evil lose our guard......"
Joyce got up and explained, no longer dodging.
The shadow of evil has begun to shield the five senses of the people of the church, making it impossible for them to discern their direction. Bullets were fired in all directions, either in the air, or into their own bodies, and the elders and believers kept falling.
Joyce and Lena became blank around them, and all shots avoided those two areas.
But at this moment, several bullets unbelievably hit the black pages that fell to the ground, tearing them into several pieces.
A cloud of black smoke rose and the black pages gradually dissipated.
Almost at the same time, the eyes of the only three remaining elders regained their clarity.
Blood penetrated the gray robe and stained it deeply. The three elders held up the empty guns and looked around in a daze.
The corpses of their compatriots on the ground were dealt with with by their own hands.
Plop β
The two elders staggered and fell, spitting out a few flakes of blood with difficulty, and never got up again.
Next to the artificial intelligence, only an old figure covered in blood stood with difficulty.
"Lena, send the AIC back to the computing center." Joyce stared at him and tilted her head slightly.
Lina gritted her teeth, grabbed Mu Su's collar and shook it: "Don't pretend!" β
"You've found out!" Mu Su, who pretended to be dead, opened his eyes and said in surprise, and then narrowed his dark eyes: "You really saw something." β
"I'll tell you when it's settled."
Lena pushed away Mu Su, who was relieving herself, and walked around to the metal table with AIC in her arms.
[I'm back hahahahaha] AIC yelled.
The dark blue eyes on the metal table looked at Lena, and a gentle female voice rang out in the room.
It seems to have a little regret and reluctance.
[I haven't seen the world well yet......]
Lina's movements paused slightly, and then she didn't hesitate to rip off the chip of Artificial Intelligence No. 1.
The pupils suddenly dimmed, and Lena instead stuffed the black chip that popped up at the bottom of the AIC into the card slot.
After a few seconds, a deep blue glow gradually brightened.
The unique tone that belongs to the AIC reverberates in the control room.
[We made it!] We did it! ]
Its pupils narrowed
[Now, it's time to settle the issue between us.] *Nerve gas injection in progress*]
"Why...... We just want the earth to be purified! β
A roar drew the attention of the trio.
Joyce was about to speak, and the tattered Mu Su stood in front of Joyce, staring at the elder with a sad expression.
"I'll tell you why."
Mu Su opened his mouth and didn't speak, and suddenly pulled the dazed Lena to hide in a corner that no one else could see.
"Turn your back on me." He said hurriedly.
Lena didn't know why, so she subconsciously did so. After turning around, there was a sudden sound of rustling and rapid gasping behind him.
ββ¦β¦οΌβ
Lena turned her head suddenly, only to see that Mu Su's face was slightly flushed, and her black eyes were a little confused.
"What are you doing?"
"It's okay." Mu Su shuddered and returned to his previous position.
He had a deep temperament, his dark eyes looked at the elder calmly, and he spoke softly.
"Human beings are always evolving, professionally evolving. Whether this evolution is good or bad, it represents our path, the path we have chosen. β
"And you're going against the current."
"We can regret it, but we must not turn back."
