The interior of the pyramid is very huge. The orbs in the outer circle may have been stolen, so it is pitch dark. However, after walking a few hundred meters inside, the environment becomes brighter.
The huge machinery is rumbling, gears are meshing, links are running, and I don't know what is keeping things running.
The pipe will emit hot gas from time to time, causing burn injuries.
The ground is covered with gray-black crystals with mixed energy. The confused souls are naked and are throwing the crystals on the ground into the furnace that has been burning for unknown hundreds of years.
These workers are surrounded by huge machinery. They are so small and their faces are numb. They must have lost their passion for life before they were alive.
The firelight was imprinted on the faces of Su Ming and Wu Nike, who looked a little dull due to the huge machinery.
"I didn't expect there to be a place like this in the Golden City..." Wu Nike held Su Ming's arm and looked at these blue souls timidly. She said, "The compass points upward, there should be a way up."
"Well, let's go." Su Ming came to his senses and took Wu Niike to avoid these workers. From the previous incident with the little girl, he knew that he could not help these souls.
When Su Ming was walking through the huge machinery and equipment, a worker who was shoveling crystal fragments suddenly raised his shovel and threw the burning red crystal fragments towards Su Ming and the two of them.
"roar!"
The hammer appeared and blocked these fragments for Su Ming.
Seven or eight workers stopped what they were doing and walked slowly towards Su Ming, forming a circle of encirclement.
After they were far away from the fire, Su Ming noticed that there was a hint of red in their blue souls, which was different from the souls in the city.
Previously, Su Ming thought these red colors were the light of flames.
As the workers walked towards Su Ming, the redness in their souls became more and more intense, and the muscles on their bodies also swelled.
In line with the principle of striking first, Su Ming summoned Xiao Hei and Zaemon, letting them focus on a monster and attack, while he himself stayed next to Uniko to block some crystal attacks for her.
The level of these lost souls happened to be level 35, so Su Ming could still control one to help contain them.
A few minutes later, these lost souls fell one after another and turned into copper coins, memory fragments and several pieces of bronze equipment.
Su Ming used up the memory fragments and suddenly found that monsters had spawned where the workers had been. The speed of monster spawning really frightened Su Ming.
He quickly pulled Wu Nike out of the hatred range.
Next, Su Ming had to find a safe path by himself before daring to let Wu Nike go.
After advancing for a while, Su Ming stopped and looked behind him in confusion.
He felt someone was following him.
Has the Soul Commander awakened?
"What's wrong?" Wu Ni asked when Su Ming turned around.
Su Ming leaned close to Wu Nike's ear and whispered:
"There was someone following us about 10 meters behind us."
"Is it another adventurer?" Wu Nike also asked in a low voice.
"Not sure."
"I'll stop in that area. Can you go check it out?"
"That's fine."
Wu Nike started and stopped, Su Ming took Xiao Hei over quickly, and saw the soul of a little boy behind the thick steam pipe.
There is no name or health bar displayed above the little boy's head, proving that he is a wild NPC.
Su Ming turned around and said to Wu Nike:
"It's not a soul leader. It seems to be a self-aware soul."
After hearing the message from Su Ming, Wu Nike canceled the time stop.
As soon as the little boy NPC was able to move, he immediately turned around and ran away, but his speed was too slow in the eyes of level 32 Su Ming. Su Ming reached out and caught the boy.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?" Su Ming asked.
The boy seemed to realize that he could not be Su Ming's opponent, so he gave up struggling and answered honestly:
"My name is Aident. My father is a boilermaker at the bottom of the pyramid. I came to see him come home."
boiler?
Su Ming glanced at the complicated pipelines around him. It turned out that these were power pipelines, probably providing power for some facilities in the pyramid.
"What's your father's name? Is he still conscious like you?"
Aident shook his head and said:
"No, my father is dead."
When Aident said this, he was not very sad. Su Ming guessed that he should have known the truth about his father's death a long time ago.
"Like those lost souls?" Unico came over and asked.
Aident did not answer Unico's question. He could directly see the shape of the soul of life. He pointed at Unico and said doubtfully:
"How come birds and humans are together? Wait, don't tell me yet, let me guess... You should be from the future like the person just now."
"That person just now?" Su Ming described the soul command to Aident, and received confirmation from Aident.
"As expected, I'm following you. I hope it won't affect my search for gems..." Su Ming muttered.
"Big brother, will humans and orcs live in harmony in the future?" Aident asked.
It was difficult for Su Ming to answer, but Wu Niike answered for Su Ming:
"It can't be said that they are living in harmony, we can only say that they are on different sides. Orcs must abide by human rules in human cities; humans must abide by orc rules in orc tribes."
"Sounds good." The Aident kid nodded.
"Adente, since you know that your father has become a lost soul, why do you still say that you want to find him to go home?" Wu Nike leaned down and asked.
"Because the dead should stay where the dead should be, instead of continuing to work here..." Aident gritted his teeth and said: "Wosom built this pyramid so that humans can serve him during his lifetime and continue to do so after death.
Serve Him.”
"Then how can we save your father?"
"Just kill 'Thorgo'. He is the manager of the bottom pyramid. Damn it, he is obviously a human being like us, but he has to serve the orc nobles, and he still has to take care of it even after he dies!
Let me tell you, this Sogo is annoying. The orcs asked us to work for five days and have one day off, so he took the lead and worked for six days and had one day off. This was not enough. He also had to make suggestions to the orcs to cancel the holidays...
Also, if my father works more hours, he should get extra salary. But this guy said something like, 'The orcs gave you the opportunity to work, but you still dare to ask for money.' Everyone
They all hate him...
If we disobey, he will fabricate a reason at will and report the person to the orcs. He acts as a dog to the orcs, and the orcs will naturally believe him and frame many people."
Aident's fist hardened as he spoke, and he said:
"Just now I asked another person from the future to help me build a robot that can kill Sogo. Do you want to help me too?"
System: Do you want to accept the random multiplayer mission "Adent's Justice Robot"?
Mission introduction: Aident was fed up with Sogo's exploitation. After he discovered the reason why his father could not truly die, he began to build the "Justice" robot, intending to solve Sogo's problem.
Among them, the robots "1~9" all failed. After improvements, Aident designed the powerful "Justice 10" robot.
Please help Aident find key materials in the dark, assist him in building the "Justice 10" robot, and kill Sogo.
After reading the rewards, Su Ming took the next step.
This kind of mechanical golem cannot be carried after it is created. In fact, it is not used by single players. In most cases, it is used to protect the guild territory.
One unit of pure magic crystal costs 10 gold coins, which a single player cannot afford under normal circumstances.
Su Ming thought to himself that he was also a member of the guild and a vice-president. He had to take responsibility for the guild and the players who joined the guild. With Justice No. 10, the dark gold golem, even if the players in the guild were not that powerful
, you can also try to occupy a territory.
After a guild has a territory, there are many benefits.
Seeing that Su Ming agreed, Aident said happily:
"Great, with the help of you two from the future, I will definitely be able to defeat Sogo!
But I only have one copy of the Justice 10 blueprint. I will give it to whoever kills Sogo. By the way, this is the map on the bottom floor. You can go find the parts in the area I circled. After you find it, go to me.
Gather where the stars are drawn.”
Aident handed Su Ming a hand-drawn graffiti map and ran away.
Wu Niike came over and saw this messy map drawn with crayons. She felt a little dizzy and complained:
"Who can understand this..."
"I can do it." Su Ming looked at Wu Nike with strange eyes and said doubtfully: "Isn't this quite clear..."
He pointed to the three vertical and three horizontal steam pipes in front of him and explained to Wu Nike:
"Look at this place, doesn't it correspond to this place on the map? This map not only has the places where the parts are needed, but also has several roads leading to the second floor marked, which is quite detailed."
Wu Niike looked at the pipeline in front of her, then looked at the map... Even if Su Ming explained it, she couldn't understand it, but as long as she followed Su Ming, she didn't think too much...
