Chapter 169 - An Unusual Mechanical Human (1/2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

A rumbling mechanical sound sounded in Peter’s ear. Although he was inside the smart mecha, he could hear the sound outside through the special device.

After Peter entered the Mechanical City, he observed the various buildings in the city through the vision system. A mechanical body that was similar to a sailboat appeared in front of him, with various sophisticated instruments operating on it.

He didn’t know what the thing in front of him was for, but below the sailboat stood a modified humanoid creature. To be precise, it was a mechanical human.

This was not the first time Peter had seen a mechanical human. Some of their lower bodies had been transformed to possess mechanical lower limbs, while others had mechanical chests.

However, Peter was now seeing a very strange mechanical human. Its entire head was filled with mechanical structures, and only the part below its head was still a normal human body.

This special modification method made people involuntarily wonder whether the person in front of them was a human or a cyborg.

Furthermore, Peter also found that the mechanical human had been looking in his direction. This made him guess that the mechanical human had discovered a weakness in him.

Just then, Peter heard No. 0’s voice.

“Master, where should I control the smart mecha to go now?”

Before entering the Mechanical City, they had discussed that once they successfully entered the city, no matter where they went, No. 0 could not make the decision on his own. He had to ask Peter in advance.

“No. 0, control your smart mecha to walk towards the mechanical human in front.”

Peter felt that the mechanical human was a little strange and wanted to walk over to test his reaction.

If the mechanical human showed no reaction, he would immediately let No. 0 operate the smart mecha and leave. However, if the other party was really observing him, he was very close to the city gate now and could leave this place as quickly as possible.

It was not that Peter was timid, but there was a very special person in this city. She was the master of the Mechanical City, the Virgin Mary.

The first Virgin Mary appeared 150 years ago. At that time, the Mechanical City had not experienced the era of war. For this reason, the strength of the Virgin Mary had not reached a terrifying level.

However, decades later, a mysterious organization suddenly appeared in the north. This organization had once stolen the blood of the Thunder God. Although Peter had never seen it with his own eyes, he had a rough understanding of the mysterious organization from the information Professor Eugene had.

This mysterious organization was the infamous Holy War Organization. Furthermore, the Bishop of the Holy War Organization had once warred against the Mechanical City. However, the Bishop had not expected that the Virgin Mary of the Mechanical City could upgrade her body.

Every Virgin Mary was born to inherit the body of the previous Virgin Mary. In layman’s terms, all the new Virgin Mary had to do was send their consciousness into the body of the previous Virgin Mary. Furthermore, such a terrifying ceremony was held every 99 years.

According to the year recorded in the history books, the Virgin Mary would be replaced this Christmas. Thus, if the Bishop of the Holy City wanted to rule the entire northern region, he had to conquer the Mechanical City before the Virgin Mary completed the handover.

However, there was less than a month before Christmas. Thus, it was very difficult to find any information about the Bishop of the Holy City attacking the mechanical city from the various pieces of information revealed.
