Witch Special
Chapter 567 The Man Who Reversed Fate
It has been said more than once before that Lin Zhenxi has been coveting Buffon, the humanoid supercomputer, for a long time. She now urgently needs a communication channel that can help the supercomputer understand her needs. If this communication channel is a person itself, a humanoid computing girl who is easy to use, obedient and pleasing to the eye, then it is simply amazing.
Buffon perfectly met all of Lin Zhenxi's requirements. His calculation and comprehension abilities were impeccable, and his character was also well-presented. Although Lin Zhenxi had never seen Buffon's original form, she had seen Buffon's alternate body. Not to mention her tall and slender figure, just looking at her flowing blue hair, delicate features, and eyes like jewels, her appearance was definitely worth the effort.
But Buffon's loyalty to Luke was absolute. Lin Zhenxi had no chance of poaching him. No matter how hard she tried, it would be in vain. But now it was different. If Luke spoke up himself... hehehe.
Wiping the saliva from the corner of his mouth, Lin Zhenxi regained his composure. Asking Luke for Buffon wasn't practical. After all, Buffon was the control center of Silent City and one of its most important members. If Lin Zhenxi took Buffon away, most of Silent City's systems would be paralyzed without control, so Luke wouldn't let him go.
But what if Lin Zhenxi wanted a clone of Buffon? Buffon was Luke's creation, and there was no way he could leave with Lin Zhenxi. But her doubles were made by Buffon herself. They wouldn't be as powerful as Buffon's original, but they would have all the necessary functions. After all, the interactivity that Lin Zhenxi valued most wouldn't be affected by the performance of the machine itself. Isn't that exactly what she wanted?
Well, if Luke wants to reward himself, he wants a replica of Buffon√
After making up his mind, Lin Zhenxi set off for the Mechanical Throne.
After all, this wasn't the chaotic time of the past few days. Opening a space door in someone else's home was considered rude. Lin Zhenxi wasn't the Golden Clown, but rather the steward of the Silent City. Everything he did was understood by the people there. Therefore, Lin Zhenxi didn't use the convenient space door, but instead traveled to the Mechanical Throne the normal way.
After walking across the long bridge leading to the inner city, Lin Zhenxi saw two golems guarding the gate. Horus, the idol of light, and Anubis, the idol of darkness, one with an eagle's head and the other with a dog's head. Upon seeing Lin Zhenxi, the two tall golems immediately knelt on one knee, lowered their heads, and solemnly saluted her.
"Welcome, Miss Lin Zhenxi, Lord Luke is waiting for you at the mechanical throne." After the ceremony, the voice of Horus, the idol of light, came directly from above Lin Zhenxi's head.
"Ah, don't be so polite. We all know each other. I am also a member of the Silent City." Lin Zhenxi waved his hand and said embarrassedly.
However, the two puppets seemed unable to understand what being polite meant. In any case, they did not respond to Lin Zhenxi's words. Instead, they stood up again and transformed into two gate gods beside the city gate of Silent City, and no longer paid any attention to Lin Zhenxi.
Well... Lin Zhenxi was too lazy to say anything more. He walked straight through the two golems and entered the inner city area of the Silent City.
The Altar of Wisdom, the Altar of Strength, the Altar of Light, the Altar of Darkness... Although the Inner City lay at the center of the massive tower of the City of Silence, like the filling inside a mooncake, it covered a significant area and contained a complex array of subdivisions. Lin Zhenxi had only been around this place once before, with Rossello, and it was quite difficult to avoid getting lost even now.
Fortunately, Lin Zhenxi had a good memory, and she was cautious and didn't go in without seeing a turn. She finally found the correct path to the Mechanical Throne and arrived at the main entrance of the Mechanical Throne.
Here, she met Luke's two children, the Iron-Fisted Princess Kabali and the Giant-Fisted Prince Gult.
These two were the most human-like of Luke's creations. When Lin Zhenxi first met them, she'd thought they were living beings. But a few days ago, she'd seen their corpses. Looking through the large holes in their chests, she could see numerous mechanical parts, suggesting they were still mechanical life forms, or at least had undergone a high degree of mechanical modification.
If not for this, they would definitely be completely wiped out like the Tarot card cadres of the living beings in the Silent City.
These two are much easier to talk to than the two golems guarding the gate. Although it was them who interviewed Lin Zhenxi when she joined the company, now Lin Zhenxi is Luke's savior, and they have no reason to give Lin Zhenxi a hard time.
If you ignore the relationship between superiors and subordinates, Kabali is actually quite talkative and enthusiastic. Of course, she's also very beautiful and has a very heroic demeanor. Although she's missing an eye, the black eye patch doesn't affect her overall appearance; instead, it seems to enhance her handsomeness.
On the contrary, Gulte next to her was a complete taciturn person. It was unclear if it was just his personality or if he was simply not good at dealing with girls other than his sister. Anyway, after greeting Lin Zhenxi, he didn't speak again. He just stood aside and acted as a quiet listener.
In this way, they passed the energy storage room and finally arrived at the gate of the mechanical throne.
Here Lin Zhenxi met Noelni and Becky again, her two best friends in Silent City.
The appearance of these two people made Lin Zhenxi realize that what was going to happen next might not be simple, because it was too grand. This was completely different from what she had expected, which was just a simple meeting with Luke.
Becky and Noelni had likely been informed of the situation in advance, so instead of being surprised to see Lin Zhenxi, they seemed rather excited. However, they didn't approach, instead turning around and pushing open the door to the mechanical throne behind them.
The two doormen, one tall and one short, looked quite uncoordinated. Fortunately, the door had a transmission mechanism, otherwise, with Becky's small body, it would have been difficult for her to push the thick metal door open.
As the door leading to the mechanical throne opened, Lin Zhenxi saw a red carpet leading directly to the throne seat, and three people standing at the end of the red carpet.
The golden clown, the blue-haired copy of Buffon, and the old man with a white beard standing between the two of them, carrying a large tool bag on his back.
The Ninth Apostle, Luke the Maker.
Red carpet...is this a thing in the demon world? Lin Zhenxi looked at the red carpet under her feet, feeling a little weird.
At this time, Kabali pushed Lin Zhenxi from behind and pushed her onto the red carpet. Then she and Gult walked around Lin Zhenxi and walked behind the Golden Clown and Buffon, standing on Luke's left and right.
The Golden Clown, Buffon, the Light and Dark Twins, plus Luke, the absolute core, made up the core team of Silent City. As long as they were not in trouble, Silent City would be able to make a comeback no matter how much it was destroyed.
When Lin Zhenxi walked along the red carpet to the throne where Luke was, Luke said, "Welcome, savior of Silent City. Thank you for your contribution to Silent City."
This was the first time Lin Zhenxi had heard Luke speak. Well, there wasn't anything special about him. He just had the voice of an elderly man, old and deep, and he spoke slowly. But thankfully, his pronunciation was clear, and he didn't have a distinctive accent, so it wasn't hard to understand what he was saying.
Lin Zhenxi scratched his pants with his hands, feeling a little embarrassed. He said, "Hey, it's nothing. I was just doing my job. To be honest, the capture of Silent City is also my responsibility. After all, I didn't guard the energy furnace well."
But Luke shook his head and said, "You don't need to blame yourself for this, because both the fall of Silent City and my death were already predetermined."
Lin Zhenxi exclaimed in surprise, "Huh?"
In fact, not only her, but even the light and dark twins beside Luke were surprised. They had never heard their father talk about this.
Luke's narration continued: "After predicting my own death, I made many attempts. I built the King's Library, recruited many subordinates, and even spread the Black Ghost to Arad and the Celestial Realm outside the Demon Realm to restore my strength. But none of these prevented the prophecy from coming true."
"As you can see, I died at the hands of those adventurers, the 'Trial Blades' of 'Helder'. This was my destined death, a fate I feared, avoided, but was powerless to resist."
"My 'destined death'."
Luke paused, then changed the subject and continued, "But you, a being from another world outside this world, changed everything. You reversed my death, and changed me, changed Silent City, and changed the fate of many people here."
"On behalf of the Silent City, I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to you for this."
As he spoke, Luke lowered his old head to Lin Zhenxi. Seeing Luke saluting Lin Zhenxi, Luke's four direct descendants also quickly followed suit and bowed to Lin Zhenxi.
This actually made Lin Zhenxi feel a little flattered. She quickly waved her hands and said, "Uh, no, no, no, don't be like this. I'm also a member of Silent City. It's only natural for me to work hard for Silent City. And, old man, you are the core of Silent City. If you are gone, the entire Silent City will fall apart. Everyone can die, but you can't. So even if it costs me my life, I have to save you."
Because she was a little anxious, Lin Zhenxi called Luke "old man" casually. She felt something was wrong at the time, but it was too late to change her words. She had to quickly continue talking, hoping to get over the matter.
