Chapter 142: Saving Cole, the First Iron Warrior
Ten o'clock in the evening.
Although tonight, May 5th, is a good day to go to Shenyou Xuyuan to upgrade after the tide rises.
But it was precisely because of such a good day that it was convenient for him to go in and investigate.
He could see that the Holy Body Sect had no intention of launching an attack, and their main purpose now seemed to be just to expend their strength here.
And since today is the day when the tide is rising, the people of the Holy Body Sect will certainly not miss this critical opportunity to improve their strength.
Although their alert level will not be relaxed, there will definitely be fewer people than usual.
This naturally gave him the opportunity to take advantage of the loophole.
After the three people were ready, they quietly came to the edge of the fog.
Joao looked at the defenseless Sue and asked worriedly, "Is it okay for you to go in like this?"
"Both of us have been blessed by the Mechanical Saint, and we can get away with it through some special means, but you are in danger."
Then the two saw Sui walked into the fog very casually, as if nothing had happened.
Seeing this scene, the two hurriedly followed in, only to find that Sui Yi was still in the same state as before, without any changes and without any damage.
Screw widened his eyes and sighed, "As expected, you are blessed by the divine fire of the Black Ashes Goddess."
The three people then made a simple division of labor, with Joao and Screw taking the lead to create some commotion.
Then Sue found an opportunity and slipped in.
The execution process went quite smoothly. The two men rushed in with great fanfare and quickly attracted the attention of the steel monster wandering outside.
Accompanied by a series of extremely exaggerated explosions, there was a slight commotion on the outskirts of Lar City.
Soon, several people came out from the interior of Lar City. It can be seen that these people are not much different from the guys 108 and his friends met.
The general level is around level 15, and the whole body has been highly mechanized, with a bloated and distorted appearance.
At this time, Sui quickly used the silicon-based symbiont to cover his entire body, and at the same time found a set of ordinary clothes belonging to the Laer City area and put them on.
He then used mutation runes to create some augmentations on his body and face, making himself look distorted and bloated.
Thus, a very ordinary and inconspicuous steel monster appeared.
The steel monster wandered aimlessly to the gate of Lar City.
The gate at this time was no different from the last time we met. Through the gate, we could still see the wide square and the statue of the goddess in the middle of the square.
Sui walked casually through the gate and onto the square.
You can see that even at night, there are quite a few mutant Iron Men in the square.
Some of these iron men were wandering aimlessly, some were still making crazy howls, and others were constantly banging their heads against the ground or walls.
It seemed that these people were unable to accept themselves becoming like this for a moment.
Su Yi even saw several people shooting at him with guns.
Sparks were produced by the friction between the bullet and his skin, and after the loud gunshot, he fell into deep thought.
It can be seen that these people have lost much of their rationality under the erosion of the steel virus.
As time goes by, these people will eventually turn into steel monsters like zombies.
Sui's appearance did not attract anyone's attention, and he easily blended into this group of iron men.
After wandering around with the crowd for two rounds to make sure he was safe, Sui set his eyes on the huge flower basket in the hands of the goddess statue.
You can see that the flower basket has gone through countless years, and the originally dry branches have been transformed into steel.
At this time, there was a vague mist in the flower basket, making it difficult to see clearly.
Sui followed the crowd and approached this side cautiously.
Just when Sui was less than three meters away from the statue, suddenly another iron man rushed towards him like crazy.
She kept muttering, "You damn evil goddess! It's all your fault that we are like this!"
"I am going to kill you!"
However, when the man was less than two meters away from the goddess statue, a dazzling flash of lightning suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
I saw the iron man being electrocuted so hard that his entire body was twitching and smoke was coming out of his seven orifices.
Even part of the metal body appeared to melt slightly.
Seeing this, Su Yi was secretly glad that he had not been too reckless just now.
After wandering around the square for about half an hour without finding anything new, Sui crossed the square and walked towards the inner side of the city.
You can see that the buildings and various shops inside the city have been perfectly preserved without any changes.
Some of the Iron Men, who looked like they were dressed in gang uniforms, had not forgotten their previous hatred and were fighting with each other.
The sound of steel colliding with steel and the clanging of iron could be heard continuously on the streets.
Following the route he remembered, Su Yi soon arrived in front of a three-story building.
There was a sign hanging on the wall of the small building with three big words written on it: Hound Gang.
It can be seen that there are not many people in the Hound Gang’s stronghold at this time.
And what is different from other places is that people here generally look confused and have lost their consciousness.
Su Yi found two Iron Men wandering in front of the door: "Excuse me..."
Before Sui could finish his words, he saw the two iron men suddenly turn around, with a pair of scarlet eyes and long fangs, looking like the legendary werewolves.
Then the two guys turned around and pounced on Sui Yi, starting to bite Sui Yi's body with their teeth.
"Give it to me! Give me your flesh and blood!"
"So I can change back!"
The two men kept roaring and trying to devour Sui's flesh and blood.
These two men were naturally no match for Su Yi. With two quick punches, he knocked the two steel monsters unconscious.
After walking in through the front door, you can see that there are still a few gang members left in the house, some huddled in a corner dejectedly, or muttering to themselves in a daze.
Sui went up the stairs and soon reached the second floor.
It can be seen that a fierce battle seemed to have taken place on the second floor before, and broken steel remains were everywhere.
These corpses were generally wearing the clothes of the Hound Gang, and seemed to have had a fierce battle with someone.
After taking a rough look at the bodies, Cole was not there.
Then Sui continued to go up to the third floor.
There were more corpses on the third floor, and it seemed that a large number of people had been slaughtered here.
Their bodies were cut into many pieces by some sharp blade.
There were many iron chains hanging from the roof, and on these iron chains were hung broken corpses one after another.
It was here that Sui finally saw an acquaintance.
The deputy gang leader, Lisa, who handed over the last batch of weapons to me.
At this time, Lisa didn't know whether she was alive or dead. Her limbs were cut off, her teeth were smashed, and her two eyes were gouged out.
Two hooks pierced her shoulders, hanging her in mid-air.
In the corner, Sue saw another acquaintance, Cole.
His entire body was cut in half diagonally from the waist, and a fist-sized hole was pierced through his chest. He fell powerlessly in the corner. Seeing such a tragic scene, Su Yi felt mixed emotions.
He was not very familiar with these two people, and their dealings were only one-sided business.
However, Sui was willing to admire their bravery and heroism.
The only ones who could slaughter them here were those from the Holy Corpus sect after the advent.
These people must have been rebelling against the Holy Corpus Christi, which is why they were massacred.
Sue squatted down and reached out to touch Cole's head.
"If you die, may your soul sleep forever in the light."
"If you are not dead yet, please burn with vengeance."
As soon as he finished speaking, Cole's broken body suddenly twitched.
Then, an extremely weak voice, but with a hint of excitement, came out of his mouth.
"Arthas? Is that Mr. Arthas? This voice is so familiar!"
Su Yi was not surprised to hear this weak voice, and asked in a low voice: "How do you feel?"
After Cole confirmed that it was Sui, his tone was filled with indescribable surprise and excitement.
"I didn't expect that I would be able to see my friend for the last time before I died."
Cole's voice was filled with weakness and fatigue.
Su Yi immediately said: "Don't worry, since I'm here, you won't die."
Cole smiled tiredly: "Thank you for your help. I am willing to pray for me at the end of my life."
"It's a pity that a sinful soul like mine can't go to heaven."
"Ordinary medical technology is of no use to us. Those horrible steel viruses will continue to erode our souls and wills."
"Eventually, we will be turned into steel puppets who only know how to kill."
Su Yi said: "It's okay, I have a way."
Then Sui separated a small part of the silicon-based symbiote he brought with him and put it into Cole's body.
Cole on this side now felt that his thinking was extremely obscure, as if countless rusts were corroding everything about him.
He felt that his memory was gradually fading and his perception of the world was becoming increasingly blurred.
If I hadn't heard the familiar voice, I would have probably fallen into the abyss from which there is no escape.
"it's useless……"
Cole uttered three words with difficulty, but before he could continue, he suddenly noticed some obvious changes.
He clearly felt a special power entering his body.
The rust that corroded him and devoured his sanity was gradually absorbed by the gentle and clear power.
The corrupted spirit is purified and the rich memory is liberated.
For a moment, Cole felt his mind become light and flexible again.
He felt that he had regained control of his will and spirit.
"Goddess, what is this?"
Cole's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief and excitement.
Su Yi said: "This is a new technology developed by our Moon Drinking Wolf."
"This thing can effectively help you control the steel virus in your body."
"Although since your bodies have been completely and irreversibly metalized, it is impossible to turn you back into humans."
"But the existence of this thing can help you resist the erosion of your spirit by the steel virus."
"To put it simply, with it, you are a group of superhumans with normal human thinking and invulnerable steel bodies!"
Hearing this, Cole's heart, which was filled with despair, suddenly felt unprecedented excitement and hope.
He quickly came back to his senses, feeling his body that was no longer as dull as rust, and his mind that was completely uncorrupted.
He even felt that he was no different from before he was infected.
Even stronger and more omnipotent than before the infection!
"Thank you! Thank you! Mr. Arthas! You are my savior!"
"You are the god who saved me when I was in the abyss of despair!"
Cole's eyes were filled with indescribable gratitude and excitement.
Cole, feeling reborn, wanted to cry, but found that he had lost the ability to cry.
At this time, he could only express his gratitude and happiness through constant thanks in words.
And Su Yi here is helping him treat his body.
"Strictly speaking, your current physical condition is indeed an evolution."
"This kind of injury, which is completely fatal to ordinary people, is not a problem for you."
"As long as you connect your split bodies together, the steel virus in the air will be able to help you heal again."
As Cole spoke, he saw Sui skillfully connect his cut upper and lower bodies together.
Then, under Cole's gaze, he saw that the cut upper and lower bodies were welded back together as easily as if they were being welded by electric welding.
Su Yi smiled and said, "My body recovers quickly."
After hearing this, Cole asked in confusion, "Benefactor, what does this mean?"
Su Yi smiled and said, "That is to say, if your body is destroyed, you can still find another Iron Man's body and connect it to your own."
"Strictly speaking, your bodies are already part of the Iron Virus."
"Since all the characteristics of the body have been completely assimilated, that is to say, all the parts of Iron Man's body are universal."
"It's just like the parts of machines produced in the same batch can be replaced with each other. It's the same principle."
The characteristics that Su Yi mentioned are all precious conclusions drawn by countless future players after paying a lot of time and blood.
After all, when they first encountered this steel legion, they were overwhelmed by these steel monsters that were completely immortal and whose parts could be interchanged, assembled, and even fused with each other.
After listening to Sui's explanation, Cole felt that his worldview had been completely refreshed. Looking at the steel corpses on the ground, it seemed as if a brand new door had opened in front of him.
After about ten minutes, Cole found that he had regained control of his lower body.
Then he stood up, stretched his limbs, and clenched his fists.
He has completely gained control of this Superman's Man of Steel.
With the special help of his benefactor, he successfully overcame the invasion of the steel virus.
At this moment, Cole no longer felt despair and regret for being infected by the Iron Virus.
Instead, my heart is filled with longing and excitement.
Then he knelt directly on the ground and spoke with gratitude and fanaticism on his face.
"Thank you for saving my life and giving me a new life!"
"From now on, I, Cole Paris, will give you everything I have!"
