Chapter 383: #383 - Our Lady of the Organs

This mechanical world was truly unexpected.

Jiang Wen looked at the confronting figures, analyzing the current situation in his mind.

It was certain that these people in front of him were no ordinary mechanical beings; they were clearly modified mechanical armaments.

After all, he had never seen mechanical beings that could unfold their arms and form weapons.

Just then, a voice came from behind them.

"Now you can't escape, can you?"

Both in front and behind were tall mechanical beings, each holding weapons and approaching them.

"Dare to take things from the Tai Mansion, you must be prepared to be destroyed." The one-eyed mechanical being in the lead slowly stepped out. Its arms unfolded into curved blades, and it stared at the two like a mantis.

The one-eyed being licked its lips, its gaze focused on the girl. A hint of greed appeared in its eyes.

"Little girl, you're quite pretty, but it's a pity you dared to provoke the Tai Mansion. After I dismember you into eight pieces, I will extract your core soul. Then we can have a good conversation, and I will make you feel pleasure."

"Heh, do you think you're capable? Don't worry, I will personally send you to the scrap recycling of the Artisan's Mansion," the girl retorted without showing any weakness.

Jiang Wen, listening to their conversation, felt a bit absurd. What was all this about? Could this be the way mechanical beings communicate?

What's going on? What's with extracting the soul core? What does being destroyed mean? Could it be destroyed like destroying a machine?

Just as Jiang Wen was thinking about what he should do, the girl beside him asked, "These mechanical soldiers from the Tai Mansion have already counted you as my accomplice. Aren't you going to resist a little? Be careful they dismantle you later."

Jiang Wen, caught in the crossfire, sighed. He knew that this matter would probably not end well today. He didn't expect to encounter this as soon as he arrived in Mo City. It seemed he had underestimated the sinister nature of mechanical beings.

Thinking that escaping wasn't impossible, but he didn't plan to leave like this. Jiang Wen looked around. Finally, he picked up a metal bronze rod from the nearby railing, weighed it, and found it to be a suitable weight.

"Hey, aren't you going to take out a weapon?" The girl saw Jiang Wen holding the bronze rod and said with dissatisfaction.

"This is my weapon," Jiang Wen indicated the bronze rod, smiling at the girl.

"Suit yourself," the girl shrugged and ignored him.

The battle finally erupted when the two sides approached several feet, and several giant mechanical beings waved the long knives on their arms and pounced towards the two.

The girl敏锐敏锐 jumped away from the attack, then used her sharp claws to counterattack.

Those seemingly short claws made it difficult for the mechanical beings to get close, and the two sides fell into a stalemate for a time.

As for Jiang Wen on the other side, he first took a few blows from the one-eyed being. Feeling that the opponent's attack power was not as great as he had imagined, he immediately felt bored.

Using the bronze rod, Jiang Wen pretended to fight back and forth with the one-eyed being. He was already an inhuman existence with strength alone, and he could never use it up. Not to mention these mechanical beings, even desolate dragons and giant beasts, he could also compete with them in strength, and he swung the bronze rod at the one-eyed being.

The one-eyed being was beaten back repeatedly by him, and finally had to stay away from Jiang Wen.

Looking at his own blade full of gaps with heartache, the one-eyed being dared not entangle with the other party anymore.

Jiang Wen saw that the time had come, and waved the bronze rod and ran towards the girl. The two joined forces and actually forced their way out of the crowd.

Then the girl took Jiang Wen and disappeared into the streets.

"Waste! All waste! Sooner or later, Lord Tai Mansion will dismantle you all!" The one-eyed being, watching the cooked duck fly away, couldn't help but curse angrily.

The mechanical beings could only lower their heads and dared not speak when they heard this.

The girl pulled Jiang Wen and ran for a long time. After she confirmed that it was safe, she released Jiang Wen, who was panting heavily.

Jiang Wen supported his knees with both hands and pretended to gasp for breath. He actually didn't exert much effort. He didn't even use a bit of mana.

"No, it's okay," Jiang Wen waved his hand at the girl.

"Your machine body is really weak, can just running cause a malfunction?" Looking at Jiang Wen's state, the girl was slightly surprised. After all, this man had been brave just now, but she didn't expect him to be so useless when running.

"I…" Jiang Wen didn't know what to say, after all, he couldn't continue this conversation.

After all, he needed to disguise himself. Since this girl thought he was so weak, then so be it.

It's just that he did know that this girl was a mechanical being, but she was too much like a human, so he always treated her like a real person.

"Why were they chasing you?" Jiang Wen asked.

"Because I took something important from them," the girl replied. "With this, it can be proved that the Tai Mansion, under the guise of maintaining the machine bodies of the machines, conducts soul core cleansing on the machines participating in the free physical examination. This is a serious violation of the Six Virtues of Machines, and a blasphemy against the precepts set by the Mechanical Saint Mother!"

Jiang Wen felt that something was strange when he heard the girl constantly saying "machines". When he heard that the Tai Mansion had violated the precepts of the Mechanical Saint Mother, he couldn't help but become interested in the Mechanical Saint Mother in the girl's mouth.

"The precepts set by the Mechanical Saint Mother? Who is the Mechanical Saint Mother?"

Jiang Wen's question was ridiculed by the girl, she even suspected that Jiang Wen was using a recycled soul core, and didn't even know the story about the Mechanical Saint Mother.

"The Mechanical Saint Mother is the supreme deity. Legend has it that the Ancestor of All Machines was created by the Mechanical Saint Mother. The existence of machines today is said to be inherited from the Mechanical Saint Mother."
