Chapter 405 Inheritor Assessment: The Memory Maze!
Even with the fat boss's wealth, he was now clutching his chest in pain.
Before Ye Xuan could even say thank you, he felt dizzy and disoriented.
When they came to their senses, the fat boss had already thrown them outside his territory.
Hatching the Nirvana Sky-Piercing Sparrow is not so simple, but fortunately, we have gathered all the necessary materials now.
Once this matter is resolved, Ye Xuan will find a way to hatch it.
The first area of the Mechanical City has been completely taken over by the Dragon Kingdom and is now being used as a production base in the game.
When the group arrived, there were already people waiting at the door.
"Reporting to General Long, all attack equipment has been deactivated. We can proceed directly to the second area."
After the monsters in the Mechanical City were cleared out, the remaining machinery was perfectly utilized by the Dragon Kingdom.
Although this person was reporting to Mo Tianci, his attention was entirely on Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan is now a legend not only in China, but throughout the entire planet Earth.
As Ye Xuan walked through the first area, he sensed curious and admiring gazes everywhere he went.
"None of the players here are above level 50."
"This is not only to prevent spies from entering the second area, but also because they are purely researchers."
"They don't need to fight; their job is simply to research various technologies."
"The current stability in China is largely thanks to them."
"Many people, once they enter this city, never leave."
Bai Niao kept introducing the staff here to Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan was well aware of his purpose: to make him eliminate his hostility towards the Dragon Kingdom.
But Ye Xuan had always despised the ruler of the Dragon Kingdom, and he had never looked down on those who risked their lives for the Dragon Kingdom.
In his previous life, Ye Xuan received protection from these people.
It must be admitted that although the Dragon Kingdom's ruler has some mental issues, his subordinates are indeed quite capable.
Boom!
Before the second area, a massive steel wall slowly opened.
Finding that none of them had moved, Ye Xuan stepped inside.
"This doesn't seem much different from Zone 1?"
Yanlong will follow closely behind.
After everyone had entered, a mechanical voice suddenly rang out from all directions.
[Eight individuals with S-rank or higher talents entered, including four or more with SS-rank talent, triggering the Inheritor Assessment]
Everyone froze in place as a hazy white light enveloped them.
Even Ye Xuan lost consciousness instantly, and his entire body disappeared.
It's unclear how much time passed before Ye Xuan finally regained his senses.
Why is my body so stiff?
As soon as he recovered, Ye Xuan sensed that something was wrong.
Not only was his thinking extremely obscure, but he also found it difficult to move his body.
Congratulations on successfully awakening your self-awareness and entering the memory maze!
Ye Xuan subconsciously wanted to check the information about the Mechanical Heart, but found that he couldn't find any trace of the Soul Chain.
"What's going on? Why is my body covered in metal plates?"
Pieces of unknown metal were being assembled one after another, and Ye Xuan felt that this was his current body.
As Ye Xuan gradually regained his senses, he began to hear other sounds.
"Item No. 521 is in good condition and has successfully awakened intelligence before the mechanical body was fully assembled."
"The experiment above is correct; we should be looking for beings with high soul attributes."
With the mechanical body fully assembled, Ye Xuan's mind returned to normal.
At the same time, the spirit fox wood and spirit seed in the soul sea emitted a faint light, dispelling the fog that suddenly appeared in the sky.
[Master, you are now undergoing the trial of the Mechanical Race's inheritance.]
[This marks the beginning of the simulated mechanical race's birth, with consciousness awakening.]
After the mist dissipated, the soul chains binding the souls reappeared.
The familiar mechanical heart began to answer Ye Xuan's questions.
Is this an illusion?
Ye Xuan discovered that the area around him was densely packed with a large number of humans.
They are now operating various instruments at high speed, and production lines are producing all kinds of parts needed for the machinery.
[Not entirely; this is a memory maze generated by combining the memories of the inheritor.]
[It is a very advanced soul technology]
Ye Xuan's mechanical body was transported to a specific location via a conveyor belt.
He discovered that there were very few mechanical entities on this conveyor belt; it seemed that only beings with awakened consciousness would be transported from here.
A three-meter-tall robot—that's Ye Xuan's assessment of his current body.
It was not equipped with weapons, nor did it have an energy core.
Although he has developed consciousness, Ye Xuan is currently completely unable to act.
Soon, Ye Xuan was taken to a sealed space.
A dark red crystal was inserted into the chest, near the heart.
What followed was another endless wait.
Ye Xuan had lost all sense of time and had no idea how much time had passed.
During this process, countless voices appeared, instilling in him the command to be loyal to the machine race.
Even with Ye Xuan's soul attributes, he felt like he was being brainwashed and was about to forget that he was a human being.
Until a flame ignited in the center of the dark red crystal.
The appearance of the flame seemed to activate the entire mechanical body, and Ye Xuan tried to move it.
Although it was extremely difficult, he managed to raise his right arm, albeit shakily.
But this tiny movement directly attracted the attention of the experimenters who were secretly observing.
"Number 521 has completed the activation of its mechanical body and ignited its energy seed. It is now a qualified member of the mechanical race."
The speaker was a middle-aged man wearing round glasses. He looked at Ye Xuan's mechanical body with a fanatical gaze, as if he were looking at a perfect work of art.
At the same time, his hands were constantly tapping something in the air.
Azure blue text appeared in front of Ye Xuan's electronic eye.
Do you remember who you are?
"Please answer within 3 seconds."
"3..2.."
Ye Xuan shook his head blankly.
"I am 521."
During that time when I was unable to move, the brainwashing voices kept emphasizing that its identity was this number.
What is your mission?
"Fight for the Machine Race, and carry out their orders to the very end."
"If one day your will clashes with the commands of the Machine Race, what would you do?"
"The instructions of the Machine race are executed first."
......
Countless questions followed, all aimed at confirming whether Ye Xuan had been successfully brainwashed.
"If I am playing the role of a successor to a memory, then that memory should belong to a nascent, nascent will. Why does this man keep confirming it like this?"
Moreover, there was something Ye Xuan didn't quite understand.
Everything is in service of the machine race, so what about the large number of humans in this base?
Humanity only gained a foothold in the universe after the rise of powers such as the Divine Dynasty and the Immortal Wanderer Sect.
Even so, there has never been any connection between the machine race and the human race.
The Machine Race ranks among the top ten in the universe and has always been xenophobic, distrusting players of any other race.
They wouldn't even cooperate with other races in the top ten, let alone the inherently inferior human race.
"Inspection complete. Weapon installation and energy core implantation permitted."
