Another World: My life is on the hook!

Chapter 1941 He will fight to the death!

The figure raised his head, revealing his old face. The wrinkles on his face piled up like layers of thick volcanic rocks.

He was leaning on a crutch, and unlike normal humans, half of his face was made entirely of mechanical structures, and behind his hunched body were long mechanical arms. But all this looked so unreal, because his figure was illusory and seemed like it would disappear at any time.

"Scholar?!"

Silver Fantasy recognized him with a cold look. She felt surprised but did not show it.

But, wasn't he already swallowed by the ether? !

Why is he here?

No.

Although he is a bit similar, he seems to be lacking something compared to scholars.

he……

"You saw—"

The old figure was leaning on a cane, without any hostility, but seemed to be deeply tired and old.

"The real Scholar has been devoured - I am not him - or rather - I am a part of him - before ascending to become the Mechanical God of Scholar - I once served as the Chief Grand Master of the Mechanical Priests - and was also considered the first generation of Mechanical Priest Archons -"

As soon as these words came out, Silver Fantasy's pupils shook violently.

She quickly searched for relevant information in her memory bank, and in a flash, she found the relevant information and documents in the database.

"Is it you?!"

The images in the database gradually overlapped with the appearance of the old man in front of him.

The Mechanical Priests are also the predecessor of the Scholars' Ascension. It is an institution that brings together all the cutting-edge scientists, mechanics, and top researchers of their entire intelligent civilization. It is also the forefront of the entire intelligent civilization's technological research. They formed the Mechanical Priests organization before their ascension.

And they were the predecessors of later scholars.

The chief consul of the Mechanical Priests at that time was named Karen, who was also the founder and defender of this organization. Before his ascension, he and the captain, the predecessor of the general, formed the highest authority and led the war of revenge with him behind the scenes.

And scholars!

This is the Mecha-God that he and all the Mechanical Priests became after ascending together!

"how come--"

Silver Fantasy came back to his senses and didn't dare to let his guard down.

The old man smiled bitterly and said while leaning on his cane:

"It can be considered as an insurance measure. The general and I have always maintained a competitive and cooperative relationship. During the War of Revenge, I took the initiative to retreat behind the scenes and withdrew from the power struggle with him. Because at that time, I understood that the idea of ​​technology supremacy could not lead us to victory. Only his iron-blooded ruthlessness, which was forged in the extreme depths of the universe, was the most suitable path for our civilization."

He paced back and forth, and his voice seemed to be filled with reminiscences and emotion.

This is also his first appearance.

After the ascension, the entire intelligent civilization no longer had any individual independent will. No matter whether it was the later scholars, generals, or the God of All Machines, they were nothing more than gods formed by the convergence of countless consciousnesses.

"Don't be afraid, child. I have no strength left now."

He turned his head and looked at Silver Fantasy with a hint of kindness that only an elderly person could have.

"This is the last mathematical Rubik's Cube left before the scholar was devoured. However, compared to the Rubik's Cube used to imprison your friend, it is smaller."

"I saved you."

Silver Fantasy didn't know what to say for a moment. She stared at the old man and felt a sense of confusion and unreality.

"In the end what happened?"

she asked.

The old man paced back and forth with a wry smile on his face.

"It's all about survival - kid - even the general is -"

"But I didn't expect that in order to defeat the powerful enemy, he would take the initiative to contact the disaster in the main universe. And after the failure of the deal, in order to gain stronger power to protect this foundation, he still ignored my advice and released our seventh machine god."

"But I had already anticipated this result. We cannot control Ether. His vigorous ambitions were already evident during the Main Universe period. This is why we suppressed him during the God of All Machines period."

He paused.

"But being betrayed by my own compatriots still makes me sad-"

Silver Fantasy slowly loosened his clenched hands and looked at the old man with complicated feelings.

"The atomic revolution—it hasn't succeeded yet, has it?"

The old man nodded and said:

"You know - without the authority in your hands - this puzzle cannot be completed - he has been looking for you - I can feel his anxiety and impatience - and now - he vents all his emotions on your friend -"

Silver Fantasy suddenly raised his head and said:

"He's fighting?!"

The old man looked at her and said, "He is very difficult and powerful. He was just one step away from destroying the core of the atomic revolution. If it weren't for this, I don't think Ether would have attacked the general so quickly. He was forced to that point."

But he shook his head.

"But he can't win."

"99% of the atomic revolution - plus the roots that were swallowed by the ether before - his current strength has expanded to an extremely terrifying level - he is just trying to stop a chariot with his bare hands -"

Silver Fantasy turned around abruptly, without listening to him anymore, and quickly glanced around, saying:

"Where's the exit?"

"You're going to fight with him?"

The old man asked.

Silver Fantasy didn't say anything, her expression was extremely calm, but her actions had already told him the answer.

"Even if you go, what can you change? It's just to let Ether complete the last piece of the fragment, and let this revolution complete its final ascension. You don't have the ability to participate in this war."

The old man said hoarsely.

Silver Fantasy had a calm expression and clenched his fists tightly.

"He's a bastard - but even if he deserves to be killed - I should be the one to kill him -"

The old man said:

"He'll run away—he always does—a man who would never allow himself to fight a war he couldn't win—he'll soon realize the odds are against him—and retreat—"

But Silver Fantasy interrupted him instantly.

"Do not."

She turned around and stared at the old man coldly.

"Other times he might have run away—but he certainly won't this time—I know him better than you—"

"If he doesn't rescue his family, he will fight to the death."
