Chapter 305: Chapter 17 The Secret of Sky City (Added Chapter for Monthly Votes!) Chapter 305: Chapter 17 The Secret of Sky City (Added Chapter for Monthly Votes!) “Fuck!
What is this?”
Big Face Cat, who had just relaxed a bit, imdiately beca alert upon seeing the clump of tin that resembled a trash can behind him, and jumped aside.
“Garbage can robot.”
Lin Xian helplessly looked at this outdated robot, known as VV.
Previously, he had thought that because he tripped and caused it to malfunction, it mistook him for trash and would not let go of his ankle.
But now, it seed he had wronged it.
It was already broken, malfunctioning.
Or rather…
...
it was too outdated, likely already obsolete.
At least in this city, Lin Xian had never seen such a backwards and dilapidated robot.
Outside the square, the streets were brimming with a technological aura, with various robots performing dazzling, acrobatic moves, many moving so fast they were barely visible.
He had also seen truly advanced waste disposal robots, symbols of incomprehensible future technology, leaving not a speck of garbage in their wake, the ground beneath them as clean as if it had been licked.
In contrast…
The idiotic robot before him, fixated on locking onto people’s ankles, was far too primitive in both appearance and intelligence.
It was hard to imagine.
That on the esteed pedestal of Zhao Yingjun’s statue in Sky City, a place held dear and adored by the people, there would be such a backward, worn-out robot.
It stood out like a sore thumb.
What puzzled Lin Xian even more was…
If its programming was truly erratic, malfunctioning, treating any human it saw as trash.
Then why didn’t the chanical claws go after Big Face Cat and Ah Zhuang?
Just a mont ago, the three of them were standing together, yet this thing made a beeline towards him, accurately snagging his own ankle.
“Trash!
Trash!
Found trash!”
Big Face Cat pointed at Lin Xian:
“It’s calling you trash.”
“That’s pretty weird…” admitted Lin Xian.
He attempted to summarize all the clues about the garbage can robot:
First, it was too dilapidated to be near the Zhao Yingjun statue; since Zhao Yingjun painstakingly established this square and banned flying here, it indicated she placed great importance on this location.
From this perspective…
this garbage can robot must have been deliberately placed here by her.
If it was deliberately placed here, then it was definitely ant for , right?
But for the mont, this idiotic robot, aside from being annoying and causing trouble, did it have any other purpose?
Secondly, the full na of the garbage can robot was [Micro Waste Disposal Robot-VV]; VV, a na inextricably linked to .
Connecting the dots like this makes it even more certain that the appearance of this idiotic robot has sothing to do with .
Lastly, and most crucially, the garbage can robot’s programming didn’t seem to recognize others as trash, but was uniquely fond of , only locking onto my ankle.
Taking everything into account.
Lin Xian concluded that this garbage can robot was unquestionably a clue left to him by Zhao Yingjun.
But…
What exactly was this clue?
In this chapter, Lin Xian felt as if everyone around him was a riddle master, each concocting sches to have him solve puzzles, truly giving him a headache.
“Forget it, let’s not worry about it today.”
Lin Xian pried the robot’s clamps off his ankle, put it far away, and then, accompanied by Big Face Cat and Ah Zhuang, climbed down the pedestal to the square.
The sparsely crowded area, along with the unusual clothing on the people, gave Big Face Cat and Ah Zhuang a feast for the eyes, astonished by the advancent of technology.
However, when they truly exited the square and ca to the roadside…
They finally understood what was ant by a real downgrade shock.
The naked-eye 3D neon cityscape, the layered traffic stream like schools of fish, robots of all sizes and styles, and the skyscrapers reaching into the clouds.
Naturally, this also included the carefree, joyful pedestrians on the streets.
“Pfft!”
Big Face Cat, unable to contain his anger, spat on the ground:
“Damn it, we suffer below while they enjoy themselves up here!”
Then—
An astounding scene unfolded!
Just as Big Face Cat’s thick spit was about to hit the ground, it was suddenly seized by so inexplicable force, twisted in the air to make a 270-degree turn, and shot up towards the sky!
All three n’s gazes followed the spit, twisting their heads to look above the road.
They saw…
A garbage truck the size of a van hovering in flight, currently speeding along, and Big Face Cat’s wad of spit, like a flying bird, chased after the garbage van, made a swift motion, and flew straight into the trash compartnt.
Lin Xian and Big Face Cat exchanged glances, speechless.
Ah Zhuang clapped his thigh:
“Now that’s what I call a garbage can robot!
Much more advanced than that piece of junk earlier!”
Saying this, as if to test, Ah Zhuang pulled a wad of tissue out of his pocket and casually threw it on the ground.
Not three seconds later.
Whoosh—
The tissue, like a fish being hooked, arced gracefully and flew upwards, sucked into a garbage truck hovering a dozen ters above their heads.
This garbage truck looked just like the one that had flown away earlier, and because it was hovering directly above them, Lin Xian could see the model identification on the bottom of the truck as he looked up—
[Hover Model Waste Disposal Robot-A37]
Thus, it seed…
A37 must be the model of this garbage truck robot, right?
The model na was quite intuitive and easy to understand.
A was probably an abbreviation for the specific type, and the 37 either represented the size or the number of iteration updates.
