Chapter 1074: Melee

The girl's eyes lit up after seeing the chip in Lu Yang's hand, but when she noticed the robots gradually regaining their ability to act, she looked as if she were facing a formidable enemy.

"The consortium didn't just send people to hunt me down; they even sent robots!"

The girl secretly thought it was bad. She hadn't expected the consortium to be so thorough in their preparations, actually having robots ambush them here in advance.

Never mind that; get the chip first!

The girl was agile. She looked back at the pursuers behind her, pushed over tables and chairs to block their path, and flipped a few times to reach Lu Yang's side.

She said solemnly to Lu Yang: "I don't know who you are, but the chip in your hand is too dang..."

"Here."

Lu Yang didn't say a word and stuffed the chip into the girl's hand, so decisively that even the girl was stunned for a moment.

Immediately, the girl realized that now was not the time to be stunned, and hurriedly checked the chip.

"Strange, why isn't it this one?"

She had thought that since she was in the library and saw a fingernail-sized chip, it must be the one left by the contact person. Upon checking, she realized she had identified the wrong one; it was actually just a chip that looked similar.

The girl shook her head in disappointment and returned the chip to Lu Yang: "This is not the chip I am looking for."

Lu Yang: "..."

So whose thing is this, anyway?

"Forget about the chip. How do we solve the enemies on both sides?" the youth asked anxiously, not knowing if he was talking to himself or someone else.

Of the three people on the scene, only Lu Yang was not anxious. The youth and the girl were as anxious as ants on a hot pan. On their left were the robots that could act, and on their right were the consortium's mercenaries; there was nowhere to escape.

Moreover, they couldn't escape. The chip was right in the vicinity, and the Artificial Intelligence and the consortium already knew the chip was there. If they ran away, the chip would fall into the hands of others, and humanity would be in danger!

They noticed Lu Yang's expression was calm, completely out of place with the surrounding environment, and sighed inwardly. An innocent passerby had been dragged into such a dangerous operation; he had probably already given up his ability to think.

The robots and mercenaries didn't dare to act lightly, pointing their guns at each other, mistaking the other side for the target's accomplices.

For a time, the atmosphere at the scene was deadlocked.

Suddenly, the third wall of the library was smashed open, breaking this momentary deadlock. Another girl broke in. The girl had blonde hair and blue eyes, and her features were as exquisite as an elf's. Her eyes lit up when she saw the chip in Lu Yang's hand.

"Found it!"

This girl also had pursuers behind her, but this time, the pursuers were living people.

The new pursuers were startled when they saw the robots and mercenaries: "Sure enough, there are accomplices!"

The new pursuers took the initiative and raised their guns to fire. The robots and mercenaries counterattacked simultaneously, and the scene was in chaos!

The blonde, blue-eyed girl dodged the hail of bullets in this chaos and found Lu Yang.

"This chi..."

"Here."

The blonde, blue-eyed girl checked the chip and breathed a sigh of relief: "This is it!"

Lu Yang also breathed a sigh of relief; he had finally found the owner of the chip.

"Sure enough, you are the contact person arranged by the Doctor!"

The blonde, blue-eyed girl said with certainty. With the Doctor's help, she had escaped the organization, but unfortunately, the Doctor was shot and died while covering her. Before the Doctor passed away, he told her to come to the library to find the chip. The Doctor had died before he could finish his sentence; presumably, the Doctor also wanted to say that there was a contact person in the library.

"Uh, Miss, did you recognize the wrong person? I am not any contact person." Lu Yang felt it was necessary for him to explain clearly.

"You must be. Otherwise, we have never met; why would you hand the chip to me as soon as we met?" The blonde, blue-eyed girl became even more convinced that Lu Yang was the contact person; this was just a simple IQ test.

"I really am not."

The blonde, blue-eyed girl was surprised: "What? Isn't it that the Professor recorded the organization's illegal genetic modification in this chip, and then he handed the chip to you, asking you to meet me, a genetically modified person?"

Lu Yang had wanted to stop the blonde girl from spilling the beans, but he didn't expect the girl to speak as fast as a machine gun, explaining the cause and effect in just two or three sentences.

"I am here to read books." Lu Yang helplessly held up the book about the universe map.

Seeing Lu Yang deny it repeatedly, the blonde girl was convinced she had thought too much and hurriedly apologized: "Ah, I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person and dragged you into this disaster!"

"What, it's this book!" The youth noticed the cover of the book Lu Yang was holding, his body shook, and he had an idea.

"Yes, why didn't I think of it? Grandpa loved reading this book the most when he was alive. He said the universe is infinite, and the Interstellar Alliance is but a drop in the ocean compared to the universe, incomparably weak. The Interstellar Alliance should hold the universe in awe."

When he was a child, Grandpa held him on the rooftop and told him about the mysteries of the universe. Thinking of this scene from his childhood, the youth couldn't help but cry.

This was something only Grandpa and he knew; only he could find the chip left behind by Grandpa!

The youth took the universe map from the book, pointed to a certain star field, turned around in the astronomy section of the bookshelves, and muttered: "According to the layout, it should be in this position."

The first girl saw the author of the book Lu Yang was holding, and her body shook.

"Why didn't I think of it? The author of this book is the pseudonym of our resistance organization's boss."

The first girl took a mysterious note out of her pocket. This was something she had obtained before coming to the library, and she had never known what it was for.

Now she understood: the numbers on the mysterious note corresponded to the page number and the character count of this book!

She took Lu Yang's book and hurriedly translated the mysterious note.

At this time, the three forces were still exchanging fire, the sound of guns and cannons exploding in their ears like thunder. The youth and the girls were racing against time among the bookshelves, looking for the chip that belonged to them.

"Found it!"

The youth and the girl found the chip at the same time and couldn't help but be overjoyed, but the sound of guns and cannons quickly pulled them back to reality.

"How do we escape?" Their crisis had not yet been resolved.

The youth proudly showed off the chip in his hand: "The chip Grandpa left behind has a virus that can paralyze robots and mechanical bodies. When that happens, we can take the opportunity to escape!"

The bodies of the consortium's mercenaries were basically all mechanical.

The blonde, blue-eyed girl was shocked when she heard this: "That won't work. Those hunting me are all genetically modified people; the virus won't work on them!"

The first girl took out a bomb: "I have tear gas; I can catch those genetically modified people off guard!"

"Good idea!"

The youth peeled back the skin on his arm, revealing the mechanical arm underneath. He inserted the chip into the mechanical arm and tapped the screen on the mechanical arm a few times. The sound of the battle suddenly decreased; it was the robots and mercenaries who had been infected by the virus, leaving the modified people to be beaten.

The first girl threw the tear gas bomb. With a 'boom' of an explosion, the tear gas filled the air, choking the modified people so they couldn't open their eyes.

The three youths took the opportunity to escape, weaving between the three forces, thrilling and exciting, and they didn't forget to drag the innocent passerby Lu Yang along before they left. ===== CHAPTER 1075 =====
