Chapter 577 Reunion with the Mechanical Empress
Listening to Xiao Xiao and Dong Feng's conversation not far away, Qiao Yu's mouth twitched involuntarily.
Their acting was a bit too fake.
Afterward, he didn't bother paying attention to the two of them. Anyway, he had learned what he needed to know, and he had achieved his goal of getting rid of Dong Feng.
Next, he should focus on finding the Mechanical Empress.
Qiao Yu closed his eyes, sat cross-legged, and spread his mental power to every small skeleton.
He believed that with these tide-like skeleton warriors, he would be able to find the Mechanical Empress before anyone else.
In any case, if someone discovered his skeletons, he could directly blame it on Dong Feng, saying that Dong Feng told him to do it.
He wouldn't suffer any loss either way.
As for whether Dong Feng would betray him...
Mr. Dong Feng, you wouldn't want others to know that you started something and the woman felt nothing, would you?
Countless small skeletons searched desperately around, and in addition to the ground forces, Qiao Yu also released more than a dozen undead giant kun and wingless birds to search the sky.
Quantitative change led to qualitative change. With Qiao Yu's comprehensive search, he successfully found the building where the Mechanical Empress was located in about half an hour.
"Found it!"
Qiao Yu controlled a small skeleton to walk into the building.
The building was not very luxurious, and the decoration style was very ordinary. It was just an ordinary office building, about twenty stories high, looking unremarkable.
If it weren't for the overwhelming search by the small skeletons, it would have been difficult for Qiao Yu to discover that there were actually six robots hidden in this building.
Qiao Yu guessed that one of them must be the Mechanical Empress, but who the other five were was worth pondering.
The little skeleton climbed up the stairs, the sound of its skeletal feet colliding with the ground was crisp.
In a hidden office on the 16th floor, Qiao Yu finally saw the long-separated Mechanical Empress through the little skeleton.
She still had that aloof queen-like appearance, wearing a black gothic dress, with a curvy figure.
It's just that her face was extremely pale.
The Mechanical Empress was stunned for a moment when she saw the little skeleton, and then a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes!
This little skeleton, could it be him?
At this moment, Marta, who had been vigilant around, also discovered this little skeleton.
"What's that?"
Marta's eyes narrowed, and she waved her iron fist to kill the little skeleton directly.
"Marta, wait!" The Mechanical Empress hurriedly stopped her, but it was too late.
Faced with Marta's iron fist, the little skeleton was directly smashed into a pile of bone shards.
"Marta! You've gone too far, I told you to stop!" The Mechanical Empress was a little angry.
"Sorry, Your Majesty, I really couldn't hold back in that situation, and Your Majesty, we can't contact any suspicious people now! This is the safest way!" Marta knelt down on one knee respectfully.
Although the Mechanical Empress was a little angry, she couldn't lose her temper. After all, Marta was right, and she wasn't sure who sent the little skeleton.
At the same time, the little skeleton's encounter was also transmitted back to Qiao Yu's mind.
Qiao Yu slowly opened his eyes and let out a breath of turbid air.
"Marta, huh... Dare to hit my skeleton, then let's settle the old and new scores together!"
He still remembered that when he was in the Mechanical Maze dungeon, it was this Marta who crushed him with his Saint-level cultivation, almost killing him directly.
Qiao Yu made a vow at the time that he would tear Marta apart and sell him to the scrap yard by the pound when they met again.
They really were fated to meet on a narrow road, he didn't expect that the person guarding the Mechanical Empress was Marta.
Seeing that Dong Feng had finished and was snoring on Xiao Xiao, Qiao Yu left a small skeleton to monitor him, and then summoned the Headless Horseman, snatched the skeletal warhorse, and galloped away.
He wanted to see if Marta still had the strength to crush him now.
Soon Qiao Yu arrived at the bottom of the building that the little skeleton had just found.
He went directly up the stairs. Compared to undead creatures like small skeletons, Qiao Yu's arrival as a living person quickly aroused the vigilance of the few people in the building.
After all, the human race powerhouses were searching for the Black Empress everywhere, so the arrival of a human at this time was too suspicious.
Looking at that handsome face, Marta also recognized Qiao Yu's identity!
"It's you! Human Sacred Body! Qiao Yu!"
Marta was furious. He wanted to kill Qiao Yu when Qiao Yu made him embarrassed before.
Now he and the Mechanical Empress were in such an embarrassing situation because of Qiao Yu, how could he not be angry?
"There is a road to heaven but you don't take it, there is no door to hell but you barge in! Give me your life!"
Marta jumped up high, wanting to kill Qiao Yu directly with lightning speed.
Qiao Yu glanced at Marta and quickly analyzed Marta's strength.
Level 70, Saint-level peak, but not in peak condition, with injuries that have not yet healed.
Marta in this state was still a bit tricky, but Qiao Yu was confident that he could kill him at the cost of getting injured.
Just as Qiao Yu was about to make a move, the Mechanical Empress's voice rang from upstairs.
"You two, stop!"
The Mechanical Empress supported her injured body and walked out, leaning against the wall.
"Black Empress! Why did you run out? You can't move around with this injury!"
Marta rushed up to support the Mechanical Empress, but was stopped by the Mechanical Empress.
The Mechanical Empress ignored Marta, her eyes were always on Qiao Yu, and Marta's handsome face instantly twisted.
"When I saw that skeleton soldier just now, I was guessing, but I didn't expect it to really be you." The Mechanical Empress showed a long-lost smile.
"Why can't it be me? Long time no see, Little Mech."
Qiao Yu also smiled, feeling emotional in his heart.
The Mechanical Empress had helped him greatly, if it weren't for the Mechanical Empress, he would have died countless times.
The Mechanical Empress was both a teacher and a friend to him, giving him a lot of help, and saving him from fire and water many times.
Qiao Yu thought he would have a lot to say when he saw the Mechanical Empress, but when he really saw her, Qiao Yu realized that there was nothing to say.
All the emotions were contained in every look and every smile.
"Black Empress, let me kill this kid! He is the mastermind behind the scenes, that Human Sacred Body, as long as we kill him, the crisis will naturally be resolved!" Marta pleaded from the side.
"Marta, I said, he didn't do it." The Mechanical Empress shook her head.
"Black Empress, do you still believe this human even now? He deceived you for a hundred years before! If you hadn't wasted a hundred years, your current strength would definitely not be weaker than the White Empress, so how could you be besieged here by a group of humble humans?"
"Even if you don't let me kill him! Then let me tie him up! To prevent him from informing other humans!"
Marta became agitated, and his tall body was also trembling slightly.
Before the Mechanical Empress could speak, Qiao Yu couldn't help but speak.
"No, how can you assume that you will definitely win against me?"
"Hmph, is there any need to ask? Killing you is no different from crushing an ant!"
Marta showed a sneer, his impression of Qiao Yu was still stuck on the Wang-level kid who was chased and scurried around by him before.
"Alright Marta, that's enough! If you still recognize me as the Black Empress, then shut up!" The Mechanical Empress directly showed her majesty as the Black Empress.
"But..."
"There's no buts, are you going to disobey my order?"
"Marta... dares not!" Marta lowered his head unwillingly, glaring at Qiao Yu venomously.
The Mechanical Empress did this naturally to protect Qiao Yu.
As far as she knew, the flow of time in Qiao Yu's world was slower than in her world.
The last time they separated, Marta was already at the Saint level, and after so long, Marta had even reached the peak of the Saint level.
In her opinion, even if Qiao Yu was a genius, he couldn't possibly be Marta's opponent, after all, the age gap was there.
"Qiao Yu, come up with me." The Mechanical Empress beckoned.
Qiao Yu shrugged indifferently, anyway, there would always be a chance to deal with Marta, there was no need to make the Mechanical Empress unhappy.
He walked past Marta, and casually gave Marta the middle finger, almost making Marta go berserk on the spot.
After going upstairs, the Mechanical Empress reached out and touched Qiao Yu's cheek, her eyes showing her heartache for Qiao Yu.
"Have you experienced a lot of unpleasant things during the time after I left? The smile on your face is not as happy as before."
