Chapter 97: Benefits of Joining the Heavenly Work Sect
"Nuke? Damn you..."
When Li Yu heard that last mechanical sound, he lost his composure and cursed loudly.
If it were any other term, he might have been able to remain calm.
But it just had to be 【Nuke】, and even adding the word "small" didn't comfort Li Yu.
He knew with his knees!
Although the "Alchemist Dharma Body" he had just advanced to was very powerful and perverted, and could be considered an immortal body for mortals.
But that also depends on what threat he is facing. If a small nuke really exploded in his house, he would be a ghost if he could survive.
Almost subconsciously, Li Yu thought about whether to escape or release the Truth Soul Body to see if he could peek at how to close the mystic key.
However, before he could take any action, Hongdou had already pounced on it one step ahead.
Only to see a blood-colored data cable extending from her mechanical arms, directly connecting to the mystic box that was flashing red light and still broadcasting errors.
In the next moment, two different mechanical sounds began to ring out interactively:
"Starting permission mode, mandatory command modification!"
"Beep, beep, beep... Another high-permission existence detected. The owner of this permission has not been polluted. The owner of this permission provides a guarantee for their master. The mystic order is temporarily suspended. Please submit a relevant feasibility report, otherwise the self-destruct program will be restarted."
"Report submission in progress!"
"Received... Detecting... Detection complete. Unknown accident encountered. No relevant contingency plan. The smart brain will restart the task evaluation."
After this mechanical sound fell, the mystic box suddenly fell silent.
The surging red light also stopped, and the terrifying threat of the nuke's self-destruction was temporarily eliminated.
Li Yu had a lingering fear. He never expected that he would face a life-and-death disaster just after advancing to Alchemist, almost tasting the power of an otherworld nuke for the first time. It was fortunate that Hongdou was present.
One couldn't guess anything from the content of the dialogue between the two sides.
But the notification when the mystic box was about to self-destruct earlier gave Li Yu some guesses in his heart:
"Location, time, contact person error... so it had to start the nuke self-destruct."
"This kind of behavior is clearly destroying evidence and silencing people. And this thing is produced by the 【Heavenly Work Sect】, so is there a conspiracy by the Heavenly Work Sect against the Sacred Nest? And it was accidentally picked up by me?"
"Who would believe that picking up a nuke and bringing it home?"
Just as Li Yu was complaining silently.
The mystic box lit up again, but this time it was green light.
The cold but killing-intent-free mechanical sound rang out again:
"Evaluation complete, starting to generate a special plan."
"Data transmission starting... Please give an answer within thirty breaths, unknown permission owner and their master. You cannot escape during this period, otherwise the nuke self-destruct program will be restarted."
This time, it was Hongdou's turn for the gem between her brows to flash with light.
Not long after, I don't know what data she received, but a look of surprise appeared on her bionic fox face again.
Then she turned directly to Li Yu and began to report the so-called data plan.
When Li Yu finished listening, a complex look appeared on his face.
He wasn't just involved in a conspiracy, but a conspiracy involving two super-giant organizations, one righteous and one evil.
"In other words, the Heavenly Work Sect headquarters has always suspected that the branch they sent to 【Wanfu City】 to preach has been swallowed and controlled by the Sacred Nest, and all the Heavenly Work secret arts they carried have been snatched by the Sacred Nest, which is why the Sacred Nest has developed various forbidden arts that fuse flesh and machinery."
"The blood rust disease was born because of this. This plague virus had never existed before. The Heavenly Work Sect judged that it was caused by the mutual erosion and fusion of flesh and machinery. Although there is an antidote, it can only decompose blood rust and cannot make the relevant forbidden arts perfect."
"The headquarters believes that the leader of this preaching branch was not killed, but was controlled and imprisoned by the Sacred Nest."
"So, taking advantage of the Sacred Nest's purchase of the antidote for blood rust from the Heavenly Work Sect, the Heavenly Work Sect secretly added ingredients. In one of the lists, which stated it was an antidote for the Three Saints Gang's three monsters to treat blood rust, they implanted a spiritual energy virus. Once formed, it could infect the Sacred Nest network, and then the Heavenly Work Sect's follow-up plan would also be launched."
"The reason why they didn't implant the virus in all the antidotes is, first, large-scale addition is difficult to escape inspection, and second, only the special sequence 【Sacred Skull Heavenly Soldier】 that the Three Saints are about to jump to has a connection with the Sacred Nest network."
"Only by implanting the virus into the Three Saints can there be a chance of infection."
"The Heavenly Work Sect didn't expect the smuggling ship to have an accident, and eventually, this mystic box with the virus fell into my hands."
"Originally, the special smart brain in the mystic box would follow the program settings and self-destruct to destroy evidence after discovering the plan failed... But because Hongdou intervened with her mysterious high permission, the smart brain generated a new plan to execute."
"Now I have two choices: first, be silenced by the nuke; second, agree to the Heavenly Work Sect's recruitment, become an undercover agent, and change to manually executing the virus implantation plan. I have to find a way to implant the Heavenly Work virus into the bodies of those three old monsters... Afterwards, the virus will automatically hibernate, infect the Sacred Nest network, search for clues, and wait for an opportunity to rescue the imprisoned preaching leader."
These words sound complicated, but it was all in a single thought.
Li Yu sorted it out clearly in two or three breaths, and then fell into hesitation.
It looks like there's a choice, but in reality, there isn't.
How powerful is a small Heavenly Work nuke?
Hongdou had already explained it clearly: Sequence Six and below, certain death.
Sequence Five, won't die but will be contaminated with severe pollution radiation.
No matter how fast Li Yu is, he can't escape the nuke's self-destruction.
And even if he used the Truth Soul Body, it would be useless. This kind of smart brain setting that operates according to the program cannot be solved by information gaps.
"So!"
"I can only be an undercover agent."
"Although I had always wanted to join the 【Heavenly Work Sect】 before, I never thought it would be in this way."
"Hongdou, agree to it, but you must fight for the best treatment for me."
"Yes, Master!"
After Hongdou finished answering, she turned around immediately, and the gem between her brows flashed even more violently. It was clear that she was clashing with the special smart brain in the mystic box. Although the process was also incredibly intense, the speed and efficiency between smart brains were far from what humans could compare to.
Only two breaths later!
Hongdou nodded slightly, and the scarlet data cables detached from the mechanical mystic box one after another.
The latter suddenly had red and green lights flashing alternately, and a cold mechanical sound came:
"Temporary plan has taken effect... Wanfu City local resident Li Yu and his mechanical maid have been recorded in the Heavenly Work Sect system, as the sole person in charge of this operation..."
"Beep, beep, beep... The Sacred Nest network will discover the existence of this smart brain in thirty breaths... To prevent leaks, this smart brain has started the self-destruct program... Relevant data and permissions have been transferred to the unknown permission owner."
"Three, two, one... Goodbye."
The countdown was ridiculously fast, and soon sparks of fire were seen flashing in the mystic box.
This temporary smart brain shut down and self-destructed, and no mechanical sound came again.
And the mystic box, after hissing and spewing steam, opened to the left and right.
After many days!
The things stored inside finally appeared in front of Li Yu.
=9+Book_Bar
It was a thick green potion as thick as a baby's arm.
According to the smart brain: this potion was specially researched by the Heavenly Work Sect and can decompose blood rust. And for "monsters" after flesh modification, it is also a rare supplement in the world.
It's just that a special virus called 【Black Ghost】 was also implanted in this antidote.
"This thing, plus the small nuke that is still left."
"Hmm, the value is indeed the highest on that smuggling ship. There's no problem at all."
Li Yu looked at the antidote and the incredibly dangerous mystic box, and couldn't help but complain.
Then, he looked at Hongdou again.
The boat was already done, so he naturally wouldn't complain about others.
Not to mention that Li Yu himself was very interested in the identity of 【Heavenly Work Sect undercover agent】. After all, he had already cultivated the Spirit Venerable Path. If it were through normal channels, he really couldn't have joined the Heavenly Work Sect. Now it counts as taking a special back door.
As for the task?
If it were when he was at the Alchemy Apprentice sequence before, he wouldn't have dared to take it even if he were beaten to death.
But now, he is a Alchemist.
The task target is not the entire Sacred Nest, but the three fierce demons of the Three Saints Gang. Even in his heart, he already had some vague ideas.
However, Li Yu still wanted to hear what kind of treatment his maid had fought for him.
"Such a dangerous undercover mission, you can't ask me to work for free, right?"
"If it's too bad, I'll just slack off."
Just as this threatening thought rose in Li Yu's heart, he began to hear the report from Hongdou in his ears.
"Reporting to Master!"
"That temporary smart brain gave the highest treatment within its permission range."
"For an existence of the same sequence, the master's salary is at the first tier."
"After this mission is successfully completed, if the master is willing, you can openly join the Heavenly Work Sect."
"There are many departments and positions, and the master can choose at will."
"If the master wants to jump paths, the Heavenly Work Sect will also provide relevant help."
"The Heavenly Work Sect's internal network will be fully open to the master, and you can enjoy internal shopping prices. Relevant permissions are also the highest for the same sequence."
"If the evaluation of this rescue mission reaches the highest level, the master will receive many welfare rewards, including the qualification for the 【Reincarnation Group】..."
"Hmm? Wait, Reincarnation Group, could it be the qualification for the Reincarnation Heavenly Net?"
In an instant, Li Yu captured a keyword and asked quickly.
Hongdou didn't hesitate and replied immediately:
"According to the data transferred by the smart brain, obtaining the qualification to enter the Reincarnation Group does not mean obtaining the qualification for the Reincarnation Heavenly Net."
"The latter has been shared by 【Heavenly Work Craftsman God Fuxi】. Afterwards, neither the Heavenly Work God nor the other five True Gods can interfere with the Reincarnation Heavenly Net in any way."
"But the special function of the Heavenly Net: Reincarnation Group, because it requires positions such as administrators and reviewers, the Heavenly Work Sect still has the right to arrange, but it cannot enter the Mystic Spirit Realm with other Reincarnation Group members to complete tasks and obtain rewards."
"So that's how it is."
After listening, Li Yu didn't have much disappointment on his face.
In fact, he possessed the Demon Star Command, so he didn't need another similar object.
On the contrary, Li Yu was very interested in this identity of "Reincarnation Group Administrator."
"If I really mix in, wouldn't I be able to kill both righteous and evil?"
"Both sides' intelligence and movements will be seen by me alone."
"In the future, in the Mystic Spirit Realm, I will definitely be able to take a big advantage."
