Chapter 56 – Mechanical Seven General, Celestial Pivot
Chapter 56 – Mechanical Seven General, Celestial Pivot
Qiao Yu straddled Mond.
According to the strategy guide, the passage to Hua Jun's lab was all iris recognition.
As long as you get the eyeball of a high-ranking person, you can easily find Hua Jun and obtain the Heart of Mechanics.
"Don't worry, I just want your eyeball, not your life."
After explaining, Qiao Yu extended three fingers towards Mond's eyes.
Mond's face was full of terror, and injured as he was, he could only watch helplessly as the three slender fingers approached his eyeball.
Five centimeters!
Three centimeters!
One centimeter!
Getting closer!
"Pop!"
Just as Qiao Yu was about to succeed, a colorful little ball hit him on the head.
Qiao Yu turned his head to see a little girl, Nan Nan, glaring at him angrily, clearly the one who had thrown the ball.
"Bad man! You hit Daddy Mond, you're a bad man!"

Nan Nan cursed while continuing to throw various toys at Qiao Yu.
Balls, toy trucks, Barbie dolls...
"Let go of Daddy Mond!"
The little girl threw everything she could pick up at him.
Other children quickly joined the battle, using their limited strength to try to stop Qiao Yu.
"Nan Nan, you all go! Don't worry about me!" Mond shouted.
Qiao Yu stood up with a grim face and walked step by step towards the little girl.
"Human Sacred Body! Qiao Yu! I beg you, please, if you have any issues, come at me! They're just children!"
Mond pleaded, dragging his injured body, but Qiao Yu was unmoved, his steps firm as he walked up to the children, his expression as cold as eternal ice.
Qiao Yu reached out to Nan Nan, and with just one move, the cute little girl in front of him would become a pile of minced meat.
"I beg you, please don't hurt them!"
Mond pleaded frantically, his heart filled with fear, regretting why he had trusted a stranger, why he had brought a stranger in front of Nan Nan and the others.
Under Mond's pleading gaze, that hand finally landed on Nan Nan's head.
"Don't worry, it's okay, Uncle Qiao Yu was just joking with your dad."
Qiao Yu smiled and ruffled Nan Nan's hair, making it a mess.
"Really? You really won't hurt Daddy Mond?" Nan Nan's voice trembled slightly.
"Really, I promise," Qiao Yu said with a smile.
"Pinky swear!"
Nan Nan extended a chubby little hand.
"Alright, pinky swear!"
A large and a small pinky hooked together, and with the thumbs touching, Nan Nan finally felt relieved.
Qiao Yu pulled Mond up and said.
"It seems that the Mechanical Empress you believe in can't save you and these children. Instead, it's my human conscience that saved you."
Mond's expression was uncertain, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Qiao Yu casually picked up a pen and paper from the side and handed them to Mond.
"Draw me a map, a route to Professor Hua Jun's lab."
Taking the eyeball of the man who adopted them in front of a group of orphaned children.
Qiao Yu, who had experienced education in prosperity, democracy, civilization, harmony, freedom, equality, justice, rule of law, patriotism, dedication, integrity, and friendliness in his previous life, couldn't do such a cruel thing.
"Are you really planning to go rescue Hua Jun alone? That's simply impossible!"
Mond directly denied Qiao Yu.
"The place where Hua Jun is located is the Empress Tower! The top floor is where the Mechanical Empress is! To get there, you have to pass through seven lines of defense, each guarded by an extremely powerful mechanical warrior!"
"They are called the Mechanical Seven Generals, even I am no match for them! Forcing your way through is tantamount to suicide!"
Mond tried his best to persuade him, and after what had just happened, his mindset had shifted slightly.
He didn't want Qiao Yu to go to his death.
"Hmm..."
Qiao Yu pondered for a moment and asked somewhat puzzled.
"Are you strong?"
Mond: "..."
He had a phrase in mind, but he didn't know if it was appropriate to say.
"You don't need to say much, just draw me a map, I need to finish this task and return to take the college entrance examination," Qiao Yu said.
Mond swallowed the curse words that had reached his throat and drew a map of the Mechanical Kingdom for Qiao Yu.
Qiao Yu took a look and immediately raised an eyebrow.
"Oh, so considerate, even thought of an escape route for me. Doesn't this count as betraying your Mechanical Empress?"
"Hmph! I just don't want you to die out there and drag me down!" Mond turned his head arrogantly.
"Alright, thanks, I'll be off then." Qiao Yu turned and left.
Mond watched Qiao Yu's departing figure, this human boy gave him an indescribable feeling, something akin to sunlight.
"Perhaps... this Human Sacred Body can really change something..." Mond murmured to himself.
As Qiao Yu headed towards the Empress Tower, Yang Xiangdi and his group encountered trouble on the other side.
"Bang!"
Zuo You, carrying a large shield, was kicked back repeatedly.
Her large shield was covered in cracks, and this newbie shield was clearly about to break, and Zuo You herself was panting heavily.
"Ma Fei, are you okay?" Zuo You asked with concern.
"I'm fine!"
Ma Fei leaned on a broken sword, a terrible scar running from his back to his chest, staining his shirt with blood.
"Damn, who is this new guy? His strength is terrifying!" Zhao Ziyue said.
They had been advancing triumphantly, about to defeat Ishude and complete their mission.
But then, a tall man in a black trench coat suddenly appeared.
With a single sword strike, he injured Ma Fei and nearly shattered the defenses of Zuo You, the strongest in defense.
The situation took a sharp turn, and the four of them were suddenly in crisis.
"Wait for me! Once my mana recovers, we can fight back!" Yang Xiangdi said urgently.
At this moment, he deeply regretted it. If he hadn't been so excited fighting mechanical soldiers and recklessly used his skills, he wouldn't be in this awkward situation of having no combat power due to running out of mana.
After all, a mage who can't use skills is no different from a regular soldier.
"Hmph! Four ants!"
The trench coat man with the sword revealed a disdainful smile.
"Ishude, you're really regressing, almost getting killed by four ants. You might as well apply to the Empress for a rebuild, you've disgraced the Mechanical Kingdom!"
"Yes, yes, sir, you're right, it's Ishude's incompetence!" Ishude replied meekly, not daring to talk back.
Because the man in front of him was one of the Mechanical Seven Generals, the General Tian Shu!
As the guardian of the first line of defense of the Empress Tower, Tian Shu was incredibly powerful, ranking among the top ten in the entire Mechanical Kingdom.
"Hmph!"
Tian Shu snorted coldly. If Mond hadn't told him that the Tiger Ben Legion in the north was in serious trouble, and Mond himself had urgent matters, asking him to come and support, he wouldn't have appeared in such a place.
Tian Shu threw off his trench coat and pointed his sword at the four.
"Four ants, come and meet your death!"
