Chapter 2
“These damned bastards…” Through the vision of the synthetic humanoids, Li Wenyuan saw the lizardmen wreaking havoc around his “body: and couldn’t help but be enraged.
It was these beings who had almost caused him to face a calamity. At this moment, he naturally did not have any good impression of them.
“Threat specified: lizardmen!” As Li Wenyuan adjusted the danger level of these lizardmen, the synthetic humanoids were no longer indifferent and all became killing machines.
“Shit! What is going on? Why are these robots suddenly moving?!” One of the pirates shouted as he fired at the synthetic humanoids. However, he found that he could not cause any damage to the latter at all.
“Did someone activate their self-defense program? Quick, inform the leader…” Before another pirate could finish his sentence, a synthetic humanoid grabbed his neck and with a “crack”, he was dead.
The rest of the pirates panicked and desperately wanted to escape from the facility.
But how could Li Wenyuan let them go?
With that, one of the synthetic humanoid’s eyes glowed bright red, and with a twist of its wrist, its arm was retracted, replaced by a cannon-like object that was aimed at the pirates.
The next moment, all the pirates who were still alive clutched their heads in pain. Some of them with weak wills even curled up into a ball and rolled on the ground, looking like they were in extreme pain.
Screams rang out in all directions, then quickly died down. After a while, the pirates’ eyeballs bulged, and blood flowed from all over their bodies. They died on the spot.
This was a non-lethal weapon that came with synthetic humanoids. Its general effect was to knock others unconscious, but Li Wenyuan had slightly increased the power of the weapon by “a little” to make its effect more obvious.
After dealing with the biggest crisis, Li Wenyuan was just about to relax when he noticed that there was a figure trembling at the “crime scene” that was covered with corpses.
“There’s still someone alive?”
The finding truly surprised him. After all, the non-lethal weapons of synthetic humanoids were very effective against living creatures. How could a creature survive this round of attack?
Out of curiosity, he asked one of the synthetic humanoids to approach the figure.
Upon seeing the being, he couldn’t help but be speechless, “Isn’t this a female furry?”
Seeing the “scary synthetic humanoids” approaching her, the female furry trembled and fell to the ground, not daring to raise her head.
This was a sign of submission for her race. These terrifying existences had killed all the pirates in just a few dozen seconds, and this had completely exceeded her knowledge.
One must know that those pirates had killed anything that stood in their way back on her mother planet. Even the sacred beasts could not do anything to them! But now they were so easily dealt with. How could she not be afraid?
The prostrating female furry trembled as she heard the approaching footsteps. When the synthetic humanoids reached her, she fainted.
Seeing this, Li Wenyuan was a little speechless, but he was more confused.
He had only been here for a short time, but he already knew that this planet was “abandoned”. Other than the pirates, there were no other life forms.
This female furry had obviously been captured by these pirates, and she looked very similar to humans. Yet, why was it that she didn’t find everything around here familiar?
The synthetic humanoids turned their head slightly and transmitted everything they saw to Li Wenyuan. Their faces made from bionic skin were surprisingly human!
“Forget it, let’s deal with the important matters first,” Li Wenyuan didn’t pay attention to the unconscious female furry for the time being. Instead, he turned his eyes to the other “warnings”.
“Show me the surveillance images of areas C5, C12, C27, and C34!”
[The surveillance equipment in area C34 has been destroyed. Unable to display the complete image.]
These four areas were the places mentioned in the warnings that had been invaded by unknown life forms. Li Wenyuan’s heart sank when he heard the answer.
“Are there synthetic humanoids in C34?”
[There are a total of 1500 synthetic humanoids in Area C34, 28 of which have lost their signal.]
“Have the Synthetic Humanoid Control Center connect to their vision to assist the surveillance. Also, order them to search for any life forms in the area!”
[Progress has been arranged.]
“Alright, let’s see what other tricks these lizardmen have up their sleeves…” Li Wenyuan’s eyes flashed with a dangerous light as he controlled the army of synthetic humanoids.
The image changed, and a huge string of data formed a panoramic image in front of Li Wenyuan. It was a scene of a large group of lizardmen fleeing.
“Run! Run faster! Quickly return to the ship!”
“Dammit! I can’t contact Karma’s team! I should have advised the leader not to let him go there! That brat must have triggered the alarm of those robots!” The captain of this group of pirates cursed as he ran, even abandoning the resources they had plundered before.
When he witnessed how the synthetic humanoids easily broke the neck of one of his fellow pirates, he gave up on the idea of fighting the robots and turned around to leave.
His flying ship was parked there. Only by getting there and escaping would he have a chance of survival.
He made a wise choice and was smarter than the average lizardman.
Without the burden of having to carry any resources, he was the first to get back to the spaceship and into the cockpit.
When he looked out of the window, he cursed again, “A bunch of idiotic money-grubbers!”
Other than him, the other lizardmen pirates were carrying the rare resources they had plundered. Although they were getting closer to the spaceship, the synthetic humanoids were also getting closer to them!
The captain knew that the synthetic humanoids would follow after them, so he decided to start the engine without waiting.
“Boss! Are you going to abandon us?!” A pirate shouted when he saw that the spaceship was slowly taking off.
However, the captain did not seem to hear him. He was completely focused on the instrument in front of him.
An impatient pirate immediately fired a gun at the spaceship, trying to use this to threaten the pirate captain to not start the spaceship.
The beam of light hit the coating on the surface of the spaceship and bounced off. The captain simply sneered and couldn’t be bothered with this group of idiots.
The ship rose higher and higher, and the pirates who didn’t manage to board were drowned by the synthetic humanoids.
The rest of the synthetic humanoids stood where they were, looking up at the spaceship that was already ten meters above the ground as if they were helpless.
When the captain saw this, he finally let out a sigh of relief. Although he had lost a lot of forces this time, he believed that the other groups would not be in better shape either. Either way, his life was the most important thing.
After he had relaxed, he looked around with great interest. Suddenly, he saw a black dot on top of an extremely tall building. The black dot looked like a synthetic humanoid, but it only showed a head before it disappeared.
The captain suddenly had a bad premonition.
All of a sudden, the synthetic humanoid that had just shown its face charged out of the building. The mechanical structure of its legs burst with unprecedented power when it jumped, and even the building under its feet was left with a mark.
The leaping synthetic humanoid glided in a beautiful arc across the air, and its target was the pirate ship that was not far from the ground.
“F*ck!” The captain cried out in shock. Although he didn’t use English, the meaning was the same.
He quickly increased the power of the engine and barely dodged the falling synthetic humanoid. After that, he didn’t dare to stay any longer and flew the spaceship into the sky.
It was not until he reached the stratosphere and was surrounded by a boundless sea of clouds that his hanging heart finally settled down.
“At this point, those terrifying robots shouldn’t be able to catch up…”
As the saying goes, never jinx oneself.
Before he could finish his sentence, a few figures suddenly appeared outside the porthole of the spaceship. They were the synthetic humanoids who had chased him to the stratosphere.
Their legs had been retracted, replaced by a propeller-like jet. With the help of those jets, they successfully caught up with the pirate’s spaceship.
In his fear, the captain steered the ship toward one of the synthetic humanoids.
And this was exactly what Li Wenyuan wanted.
The synthetic humanoid didn’t fly away. Instead, it stuck itself to the window. No matter how hard the spacecraft tried to make it fall, it didn’t budge.
In the end, in the shrieks of “don’t come near me”, the synthetic humanoid smashed the glass with a punch and pulled the lizardman out.
Following this, the pirate spaceship, which had lost control, crashed into an artificial forest. Li Wenyuan didn’t care about this and turned the camera to other areas.
“You want to escape? I’ll make sure you won’t be able to return!”
