Terraria: Cruel World Legends

Chapter 178 Am I a test subject?

……

Towards evening——

Jiaden crossed his fingers and silently watched the image sent back by the reconnaissance spherical robot, where Xi Yao fell unconscious. Then, he turned his head and looked at the glass chamber, where the mechanical skeleton king had been completely infused with soul and became particularly impatient.

"If I had known this, I would not have injected my soul into the body of the Mechanical Skeleton King so early in order to make it adapt to its body faster."

"The operation of complete soul injection is irreversible, Xiyao, it seems that this experimental subject will have to retain the soul until..." Jiaden suddenly said to himself, but before he finished speaking, he shook his head silently.

"However, letting it keep its soul is particularly disadvantageous to me. It will consume a lot of energy." After saying this, Jiaden suddenly raised his head as if he had thought of something and muttered to himself:

"In that experiment, it was you and your companion... no, it should be considered three people, who defeated the Destroyer together." Garden said, seeming to be thinking about something.

"We can't waste our limited energy any more. This time, let's use this experimental subject on your companion. It's a pity for this experimental subject... I should have made sure you were here first, instead of completely injecting your soul into it." Jarden shook his head slightly and said.

……

7:17 p.m., Surface, Dongfang Town——

Since Xi Yao had not returned from morning to after dinner, Prism, who had already noticed something was wrong, immediately set off for hell.

After putting on her armor and taking her weapons, she went to the storage room in the forge and took out two bottles of Featherfall Potion, two bottles of Teleportation Potion, some enhancement potions, and several bottles of powerful life potions from the potion box.

...After making these preparations, Prism immediately walked out of the forge and then walked quickly towards the location of the straight passage to hell.

…However, after she walked out of the forge, she hadn’t taken a few steps when she saw a spherical reconnaissance robot flying in front of her from nowhere.

Then, before Prism could see clearly what was in front of him, the spherical robot spoke in a mechanical voice:

"Testers, please get ready. The second round of tests is about to begin."

Prism was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then he immediately understood and said in disbelief: "Wait...isn't the test subject him...Xi Yao?"

The spherical robot did not answer... but at this time, the spherical robot seemed to be connected to something. It first turned around flexibly and looked around, and then quickly turned to the prism.

Suddenly, the spherical robot shot a holographic green light into the air. Soon, the holographic green light spread into a rectangle, like a holographic display board.

Then Prism saw that some words gradually appeared on the holographic display board... After six lines of holographic text appeared, this text was no longer updated.

[The real test subject cannot come back at the moment, and I have already completely injected my soul into the test subject. This operation is irreversible. I cannot waste the energy that keeps the test subject running. Therefore, you will be the test subject this time. Let me see how strong you are as a companion of that god's creation.]

This was the subtitle displayed on the holographic projection board. After reading it, Prism realized that Xiyao was indeed in trouble, and asked hurriedly: "...Are you Jiaden? How is he now?"

…The subtitles did not update again, and the spherical robot spoke again in a mechanical voice: "It is predicted that the test subject will arrive at the test personnel's location in twelve minutes."

Then, the reconnaissance robot projected a holographic projection board into the air, on which a twelve-minute countdown appeared.

Prism bit her lip lightly, looking at the subtitles on the holographic projection board and the numbers ticking on the holographic countdown. She asked again, "So, now as a test subject, I will be facing a test subject later?"

As soon as Prism finished speaking, a word appeared on the holographic projection board: [Yes]

However, the next second, three cobalt blue kunai flew towards the spherical robot. Since it did not have time to dodge, it was shattered by the cobalt blue beams!

After smashing the spherical robot, Prism flew into the air with a serious expression, and then saw the lights lit up in the battle field on the southern plain.

"Damn it..." After cursing angrily, Prism was about to fly over and prepare for battle, but she suddenly thought of something, immediately landed on the ground and ran towards her home.

There was no time to open the door, and Prism smashed the window glass and rushed into the house. Then, regardless of Bilan lying on the floor with a confused look on her face, she quickly prepared the combination milk and placed it next to Bilan.

After doing all this, Prism had no time to do anything else. He just took a last look at Azure and immediately rushed out the door and flew towards the battlefield.

Azure stood up, looking at Prism's departing back with some confusion and worry, then looked at the unicorn milk that had been spilled due to being in a hurry... Azure felt that its owner seemed to be acting strangely...

……

...After flying for nearly three minutes, Prism arrived at the battlefield. Without paying any attention to the pain in her abdomen caused by menstruation, she flew around the battlefield at the fastest speed and observed its structure so that the upcoming battle would have more flexibility.

...After the observation, the prism fell to the center of the battlefield, and then began to wait for the so-called test subject...But at this time, she suddenly found a spherical reconnaissance robot flying in the distance.

The robot immediately emitted a holographic green light, which turned into a holographic projection board, on which some words gradually appeared:

[Your behavior is unnecessary. My reconnaissance robots are everywhere in Terra. They can reproduce autonomously and actively connect to the control center. It is impossible for them to be destroyed completely.]

After reading these words, Prism looked at the reconnaissance robot coldly: "Jade, right? Answer my question just now."

[He is still alive, but he just fainted after a battle. Now please prepare the test subjects. It is expected that the test subject will arrive at the test site in seven minutes.]

After learning that Xi Yao was fine, Prism finally felt relieved. She said nothing more and took out the Prism Flying Knife, intending to use it as her main weapon for tactical output.

Having said that, the Prism Knife is indeed a powerful rogue weapon. It performs very well in both single and group attacks, and its stealth attacks are also very good. Taking all factors into consideration, the Prism Knife is indeed suitable as a primary weapon in combat.

…At this moment, Prism thought of something. She turned her head and looked at the reconnaissance robot: "What type of entity is this test subject?"

[Both as an individual and as a group]

After seeing these words that sounded like a riddle, Prism looked at the countdown again, noted the time, entered stealth mode, and threw a prismatic knife at the spherical robot!

Once again, the spherical robot was crushed by Prism... and then Prism counted silently in his mind according to the countdown he had just memorized.

391 seconds…390 seconds…389 seconds…

……

After Jarden discovered that the prism had destroyed the spherical robot again, he just shrugged helplessly, but he didn't seem to be angry. He talked to himself very rationally.

"There is no need for this behavior... it's just a waste of energy... that's all. Let the investigators just record the test process. The test without the god's creation is not worth watching at the same time."

After saying that, Jiaden mobilized the actions of several investigators and asked them to record the experimental process. Then he controlled the Star Stream gaming chair under his seat and left the investigator, which was the control center room of the spherical investigation robot.
