Chapter 1 What is This Human Archaic Holy Body?
Mond's words stunned Qiao Yu.

What the hell? What human Archaic Holy Body?

After a long pause, Qiao Yu finally realized that he seemed to have made up the Archaic Holy Body thing to Blitz earlier.

Seriously? You guys are supposed to be artificial intelligence, aren’t you? You actually believe such nonsense as Archaic Holy Body?

Qiao Yu complained in his heart as he looked up at Mond.

"Hello! I am Qiao Yu, the human Archaic Holy Body!"

"Hello, Mr. Qiao Yu!"

Mond was overjoyed and quickly extended his hand. Qiao Yu’s attitude excited him greatly!

It looked like there was hope for the human Holy Body to join the Mechanical Kingdom!

The Black Queen would definitely be very happy.

Afterward, Qiao Yu and Mond chatted like old friends who hadn't seen each other in years.

Each had their own agenda: one wanted to win over the Archaic Holy Body to join the Mechanical Kingdom, and the other wanted to sneak into the core base using the former as cover.

"Brother Qiao! I really wish I had met you sooner! Hahaha! Let's go, let's go to my place and have a couple of drinks!"

"Brother Mond, you're too kind! Then I won't stand on ceremony! Let's go, let's go!"

Qiao Yu and Mond walked away with their arms around each other's shoulders, leaving the Tiger Vanguard Commander Yixiu De completely dumbfounded.

What was going on? Why was the human Archaic Holy Body as close as brothers with Colonel Mond of their kingdom?

Yixiu De felt like his AI brain was malfunctioning.

"We're done for! Did you guys see that? Yu-ge has defected to the enemy!" Yang Xiangdi pointed at the backs of the two.

"Yang Xiangdi, Qiao Yu definitely has his own plans. Don't worry," Zuo You explained.

"Oho! Zuo You is already protecting your lolicon little hubby?" Zhao Ziyue teased from the side.

"Zhao Ziyue! Do you want to die!" Zuo You revealed a small tiger tooth, giving off a fierce and cute vibe.

"I'm scared, I'm scared. A hubby-protecting maniac is so scary, hee hee hee." Zhao Ziyue covered her mouth and laughed.

"Zhao! Zi! Yue!"

"I'm outta here, Ma Fei~ I'm here to heal you!" Seeing Zuo You get angry, Zhao Ziyue ran directly to Ma Fei's side.

Leaving behind Zuo You, whose face was flushed red, it was unclear whether she was angry or embarrassed.

On the other side, Qiao Yu, under Mond's banner, entered the capital of the Mechanical Kingdom without any obstruction.

"My god…"

Qiao Yu exclaimed in surprise.

Inside the capital, there were towering giant towers everywhere, resembling a maze of stone stalagmites.

The walls of the towers were filled with various AR advertisements and artificial simulacra. The entire city was shrouded in a dim atmosphere, and the dotted lights made the city look like countless integrated circuit boards.

Compared to human cities, the Mechanical Kingdom's capital was clearly much more advanced. The only difference was that everyone on the streets was a robot.

There were even robots leading humans on leashes on the streets, just like humans walking dogs, and two robots were even communicating with each other.

"What kind of human food do you feed your human pet? Their poop is so stinky after they eat meat! I don't even want to be a pooper scooper anymore!"

"You can try this human food. Not only will their poop not be stinky after eating it, but it will also make your human pet's skin smoother!"

"Really? Then I'll try it when I get back. Hey? Is your human pet pregnant?"

"Yeah! When it gives birth to little human pets, I can sell them to the pet store for a good price!"

"I'm so jealous of you. Where did your human pet get bred? Is the stud handsome?"

The two robots discussed without restraint, while two humans were held in their hands by ropes, with blank expressions on their faces.

The scene was incredibly ironic.

"In the Mechanical Kingdom, humans either accept mechanical modification or become human pets. There is no third option," Mond explained, seemingly noticing Qiao Yu's confusion.

"I see." Qiao Yu echoed with a smile, but he was deeply shocked in his heart.

If artificial intelligence becomes advanced enough in the future, will it really become a scene like the Mechanical Kingdom?

Humans in the world of robots become lower-level creatures, no different from cats and dogs.

"Let me tell you, some humans voluntarily come here to be pets! They even enjoy it!" Mond said with a smile.

Qiao Yu nodded. He had heard that some circles did have a trend of recognizing masters.

But recognizing a robot as a master… Qiao Yu always felt it was weird.

It was as comical as someone calling a dog "Dad".

"Brother Qiao, um, do you really not need to bandage your wound?"

Mond looked in horror at the wound on Qiao Yu's body that was still bleeding non-stop.

When the human body loses more than 2000 milliliters of blood, it will fall into a deep coma.

And if the patient doesn't receive a blood transfusion in time, they will die completely from excessive bleeding.

According to Mond's own incomplete statistics, Qiao Yu had lost at least five jins of blood on the way here… If he were to open a Mao Xue Wang (a spicy Sichuan dish) restaurant, he could probably become the richest man directly.

"It's nothing, just a small injury, not worth mentioning."

Qiao Yu waved his hand helplessly. He didn't want to bleed either, but his health points were just too high.

Unfortunately, his defense was only a pathetic 6 points, which meant that he would bleed profusely even from a slight bump.

"Um… okay." Mond said silently.

Maybe that was the talent of the Archaic Holy Body?

Under Mond's lead, Qiao Yu followed him back to a spacious church. Pushing open the door, a black piano came into view.

"Daddy Mond is back! Daddy Mond!"

More than a dozen children rushed towards Mond, their faces full of joy. They didn't seem to be afraid of Mond's half-metallic body that gleamed with a cold light.

"Aiyo, my good children! Come, let Daddy hug you!" Mond picked up a little girl. "Why is Xiao Nannan fatter again?"

"Daddy Mond is lying! I'm not fat! You're the fattest!" Xiao Nannan pouted her little mouth angrily.

The originally short and fierce Mond seemed to transform into a loving father at this moment, and even his ugly face became somewhat kind.

"Come, call him Uncle Qiao Yu." Mond said to the little girl in his arms.

"Hello, Uncle Qiao Yu~"

The little girl blinked her big eyes and looked at Qiao Yu, her eyes filled with curiosity and a hint of fear of strangers.

"Brother Mond, who are these children?" Qiao Yu's face was full of confusion.

"Go play with them, Nannan."

After sending Nannan away, Mond opened his mouth to speak.

"These are all orphans I adopted. They lost their parents in the war between humans and the Mechanical Kingdom and have nowhere to go."

"When they come of age, I will send them for mechanical modification to become a new batch of mechanical warriors."

Qiao Yu frowned upon hearing this. He deeply despised this behavior of raising children as tools.

"You adopted these children just to train a group of loyal lackeys for yourself?"

Mond asked back with some confusion.

"What do you mean lackeys? What's wrong with accepting mechanical modification? Their lifespan is extended several times, and their physical fitness is much stronger than ordinary humans. This is clearly a beneficial thing!"
