Very soon, facts proved that chanical lifeforms, in terms of maintenance, were still relatively reliable.
As the group jumped onto the roller coaster, the situation Aiden worried about, collapsing due to being unable to bear the weight, did not occur. The roller coaster steadily departed from the platform.
Since it had just left the platform and was in an ascending state, the roller coaster's speed was not very fast, but Aiden still reminded, "Everyone stand firm, don't get thrown out later."
In fact, he was very clear that, with the weight and balance ability of androids, getting thrown out was simply impossible. He said this only because of human thoughts acting up.
"Don't worry, at this kind of speed, it's impossible for us to be thrown out," said 11B behind him.
The other androids all nodded simultaneously. 9S even curiously asked, "You just said humans rode this thing seeking excitent, but it doesn't feel like much."
"That's because you all are androids. Compared to you, humans are still far too fragile," Aiden said helplessly.
Just as he was speaking, the roller coaster had already ascended to the top. As the front of the car passed over the first slope, the speed suddenly increased several tis over.
And this acceleration caused the previously indifferent androids to almost lose their footing, their bodies shaking violently a few tis.
But even so, it didn't cause much emotional fluctuation in the androids. They only sighed that this thing was indeed quite fun.
However, after the roller coaster passed through several large-angled slopes, so flying chanical lifeforms roaming nearby noticed them, and all gathered over, launching an attack on them...
———
anwhile, on the other side of the amusent park, the humanoid chanical lifeforms, Adam and Eve, the two brothers, were strolling down a road full of chanical lifeforms.
Wherever they passed, those nearly thoughtless chanical lifeforms all retreated to the sides of the road, as if making way for kings on patrol.
Eve, who was born from his older brother's body, had a much livelier personality and was full of curiosity toward the surrounding amusent facilities.
He turned his head and asked Adam, who was reading a book, "Brother, is this the amusent park from the human era?"
"Yes, this is a place ant to provide happiness to humans," Adam replied without even lifting his head. The joyful scenes around him were still less attractive to him than the knowledge in books.
"Happiness… like them?" Eve pointed to the surrounding chanical lifeforms dancing and shouting "happy."
Adam didn't answer, because he was reading the last page of the book in his hand. After finishing that page, he closed the book and casually threw it aside. Only then did he say, "What do they know of happiness? Just a bunch of low-level beings without thoughts, rely making unconscious movents under the influence of so emotion."
"Then… brother, do you know what happiness is?" Eve asked again.
"What is happiness…" Adam fell into thought. After a long while, he slowly shook his head, "I don't know what happiness is either. But we can try it, go experience what happiness is."
Saying this, the two brothers walked up to a large building.
Adam looked up and saw that this building was actually an opera house, and from inside the opera house ca faint operatic singing.
Adam thoughtfully raised his eyebrows, then said, "According to books, humans would seek sensory and spiritual happiness in opera houses. Brother, now I will take you to experience it."
———
On the other side, although Aiden and the others had eliminated the chanical lifeforms attacking them, the roller coaster they were riding was damaged due to the intense battle and lost power, eventually coming to a slow stop beside the rooftop of a huge building.
Looking at the building in front of him, Aiden didn't know whether to call it coincidence or destiny. The place where the roller coaster had stopped was precisely above the opera house in the amusent park.
At this mont, 9S's support pod tily gave a prompt, "Detected android signal response inside the building below."
"Looks like our luck isn't bad," 9S glanced downward, discovered a large hole on the building's rooftop, and directly jumped down.
Aiden and the others followed closely behind, landing on the ceiling. Then they saw 9S standing in a listening posture.
"Seems like soone is singing." 2B focused for a while and said.
"Not just that." A2 shook her head. "I think I also heard voices talking."
Hearing this, both Aiden and Yakor were a bit surprised. They thought simultaneously, 'How could that be? Are there still androids alive inside?'
Fortunately, 11B voiced the question for them, "Talking voices? Could they be those missing androids?"
"Seems not." 2B also heard the conversation sounds from below, and then she made a shushing gesture.
Everyone imdiately quieted down. At this mont, they could all clearly hear the conversation below.
"Brother, this guy not only sings terribly but is also so ugly!"
However, after this sentence, ca a sharp scream.
"You all… actually called Beauvoir ugly… unforgivable… you… unforgivable…"
"Beauvoir is clearly very beautiful… very beautiful… Beauvoir will kill you all… make you into Beauvoir's decorations… let Beauvoir… beco even more beautiful…"
After that, intense explosion sounds ca from below, as if a fierce battle had broken out.
Everyone on the ceiling was a bit dazed, even Aiden and Yakor were utterly confused.
Finally, Aiden spoke, "We better go down and have a look."
After saying that, he was the first to crash through the glass of the ceiling and jump down. He was just too curious about what exactly was going on below.
Seeing him jump down, A2 and 11B, worried for his safety, also followed closely, all three landing almost at the sa ti.
Then, they saw the humanoid chanical lifeforms, Adam and Eve, who had escaped days ago, currently fighting against a chanical lifeform several ters tall, wearing a red dress and covered in remnants of androids and chanical lifeforms used as decorations. They couldn't help but freeze.
Yakor and 2B also jumped down at this ti. Seeing this scene, they too were montarily stunned.
"This is… chanical lifeforms at civil war?" After a long mont, 2B murmured.
A chanical lifeform civil war was rare even for androids. Even A2 had never seen such a scene before.
The androids stared wide-eyed for a while. 9S suddenly realized this was an opportunity and imdiately said, "While they're fighting each other, let's wipe them all out in one go."
The androids were all tempted by this idea. Not only 2B, but even A2 and 11B drew their weapons. Although both had defected from the Bunker, chanical lifeforms, just like humanity's supremacy, were deeply embedded in their base logic as enemies.
Looking at their ready-to-fight appearance, Aiden shook his head, thinking that combat-type androids still weren't as ntally sophisticated as humans, too simple-minded.
He then raised his hand to stop them and said, "If you intervene now, you might be attacked by both sides, or get caught in the chaos. It's better to wait until they determine a winner before taking action. That way, we can achieve the greatest benefit at the lowest cost. Among humans, there's even a proverb for this, 'When the crane and clam fight, the fisherman gains.'"
The androids naturally didn't understand what a proverb was, nor could they understand that phrase, but they could understand the earlier logic in Aiden's words and found it very reasonable. So they retreated again.
Even 11B looked at him with admiration and said, "Aiden, you really know a lot." This made Aiden a bit embarrassed.
As they spoke, the battle between the special chanical lifeform nad Beauvoir and the Adam and Eve brothers had reached its peak. All kinds of battle skills were used freely, and the entire opera house was left in ruins.
Although Adam and Eve were also special chanical lifeforms, after all, they had only recently awakened and didn't have a deep understanding of how to fight. Though it was two against one, they were sohow being pushed back. Under Beauvoir's fierce attacks, they could barely defend themselves and had no chance to counterattack.
As the fight beca fiercer, the brothers began to develop the intention to retreat, but Beauvoir's continuous assaults gave them no ti even to activate space transfer. They could only do their best to defend.
Truthfully, their real strength wasn't weak at all. Aside from being able to use the chanical lifeform network to teleport, their actual combat ability was not much different from YoRHa androids.
But precisely because of this, they couldn't defeat Beauvoir, because in the ga, YoRHa androids also weren't her match.
In a gap during the battle, Beauvoir finally grew impatient. It let out a shrill screech.
In an instant, countless crosses fell from the sky, piercing the entire floor of the opera house.
And on those crosses were androids tied with steel wires. There were all types, even YoRHa models. Those androids seed to have been tortured before death, their synthetic skin stripped off entirely, and their inner skeletons full of wounds.
This scene made 2B and 9S clench their fists with gritted teeth.
Before Aiden could stop them, 2B and 9S, in anger, launched an attack against Beauvoir. The two wielded long blades and, under cover of their support pods, slashed forward.
But their joining didn't bring a decisive turn. Instead, it gave Adam and Eve a chance to breathe. While Beauvoir's attention was on 2B and 9S, they quickly withdrew from the battlefield.
"Androids, I will thank you for your help," Adam waved his hand and released a fireball, destroying the nearby android corpses emitting jamming signals. Then he took Eve's hand, and the two vanished in a streak of light inside the opera house.
"They should learn how to control their emotions," Aiden said helplessly as he watched the humanoid chanical brothers disappear.
But he knew now wasn't the ti to complain. As he spoke, he pointed toward the special chanical lifeform Beauvoir. The temporary support pod transford into G-3 apex form and swiftly surrounded it.
Behind him, A2 and 11B also took action. Both wielded long blades and launched attacks at Beauvoir.
Under the righteous multi-directional assault, the already injured Beauvoir could barely resist for a few minutes before being stabbed through the core power furnace by 2B.
The core power furnace, like a heart, was pierced. Beauvoir completely lost resistance. After emitting a mournful sound, her body exploded with a boom and turned into a pile of scrap tal.
At this mont, the opera house still echoed with her voice, "In the end… I still had a beautiful curtain call…"
After eliminating Beauvoir, 2B and 9S gradually cald down. Seeing Aiden's helpless expression, they understood what kind of mistake they had just made.
"I'm sorry." For so reason, 2B felt a bit guilty and imdiately apologized.
Next to her, 9S also quickly reflected on his impulse, but was ignored by Aiden.
"Forget it. What's done is done. There's no point in saying more."
Aiden glanced at Beauvoir's corpse, turned, and walked out of the opera house. A2, 11B, and Yakor followed him silently.
"Aiden…" 2B thought he was angry and hurried after him.
But in fact, Aiden wasn't angry. He had always had a good temper. He just felt a bit regretful.
However, he also knew that even if Adam and Eve were left grievously injured in a fight with Beauvoir, they still couldn't be killed now, because those two could use the chanical lifeform network to revive themselves.
But 2B didn't know this. She kept explaining her earlier actions by his side. Aiden still didn't say anything, but her behavior made even A2 and the others tense up.
Just like that, they exited the opera house. By now, the outside world was already bathed in sunlight. Unknowingly, they had spent the entire night in the ruins of the amusent park.
After exiting the opera house, Aiden stopped moving. In his vision appeared a chanical lifeform holding a white flag.
That chanical lifeform hovered in midair, its eyes an unusual green. Seeing Aiden and the others co out, it imdiately flew forward a short distance, causing A2 and 11B to beco alert.
