Chapter 451: Wang Yun’s Fortuitous Encounter after Disaster

VIIING

Inside the underground dungeon, where Liu Bian\'s pylon tower used to be located, a finger-sized orb with pre-charged Shadow Element Qi and a piece of soul fragment glittered.

The orb was the life-saving treasure of Wang Yun, aka Mike. He had hidden it under Liu Bian\'s Pylon Tower when they first constructed it to absorb the twilight essence and shadow element Qi.

After the orb\'s owner had died, the memory and the conscience of Wang Yun were transferred to the fragment.

RUMBLE

The orb was lit up in orange light, and Wang Yun was resurrected.

"…"

As soon as Wang Yun regained his sight and senses, he looked around.

"Oh, I didn\'t expect you to use this fragment so soon. I\'m so sorry that your new body hasn\'t been completed yet."

Wang Yun felt as if his entire body was paralyzed. His eyes were the only things that his body could move.

He couldn\'t eject his soul from the unknown body. However, he was confident that the pre-charged energy in the fragment and the orb was enough to activate shadow-teleport skill a few times.

Wang Yun tried his best to muster his strength in his vocal cord and muttered.

"…Br…cell?"

"Yes, that\'s me."

Wang Yun closed his eyes as he tried to remember where he had scattered his nascent soul fragments in the case of emergency.

First off, this wasn\'t the only place that Wang Yun had hidden a backup soul fragment. He buried his soul orb under various structures, which could never be found unless someone destroyed the whole building.

One was under the south wall of Siren City. The second one was hidden under the peer, north of Red Sun City.

As for the last one, it should have been under Liu Bian\'s pylon tower, which he had forgotten about it.

Wang Yun was confused. He prioritized the one under the Siren City Wall as his default returning point as the Life Essence in the air would be helpful for his resurrection. Yet, his consciousness came here automatically.

Wang Yun spread his Qi sense to scan the surroundings.

Currently, Wang Yun was in a strange lab with a dozen glass tubes. Most of them were lined along with the walls, containing mechanical-looking humanoids.

However, Wang Yun was inside the tube at the center of the room, floating in the green water.

"You must be confused, right? I can explain."

In reality, after Brocell took over the pylon tower, he collected the orb and protected it inside his dungeon for a long time. Now, it was used in one of his experiment, and Brocell accidentally attracted Wang Yun\'s conscience into the soul fragment.

Brocell stood in front of the tube with an incomplete body of Wang Yun, which only had the upper torso and a head.

The upper torso of Wang Yun was made with unknown alloy and material. Strange pseudo muscle fibers, wires, and grey jelly replaced his inner organs and skeleton.

Wang Yun could now vaguely sensed his odd physical body. His soul was inside something that wasn\'t a human.

Brocell elaborated, "In ancient time, Gods always waged war against each other for supremacy. They cultivated and researched various technologies to best their rivals. For billions of years, no galaxy was at peace."

"..."

"Until one day, Dao Gods created powerful soldiers, SO POWERFUL that half of the universe was destroyed because of them. They even turned against their creators and their allies!!"

"..."

"Afraid of those humanoid weapons, all gods and their creators formed an alliance and ended the long war to destroy their toys."

As Brocell talked, he walked around Wang Yun\'s new body, which had been carefully repaired and constructed inside a glass tube. Many robotic hands and thick white gas, containing Life Essence, were the only things inside other than the upper torso.

"I don\'t know what it was called, but I learned about the nicknames of those weapons. The gods called them, War Droids."

Wang Yun maintained his concentration and focused on gathering intelligence, listening to Brocell\'s mumbling.

The self-proclaimed demon lord continued, "War Droids were banned from being created since then. However, many survived the purge and worked for the gods, and they continue to serve the descendants of their creators, which I find it… vulgar and disgusting."

"…"

"Such hypocrisy… If they were so dangerous, why have they been keeping the droids alive up till now? That was what I always questioned whenever I thought about this part of history… But, half a year ago, I was enlightened!"

Brocell revealed a bright smile and laughed, "One of those legendary War Droids appeared! They came down to this lowly planet and rescued a mortal from the grasp of that Immortal!! Ha! They are no robots. They are sentience beings with conscience and intelligence!!"

Wang Yun\'s heart sank. Brocell definitely referred to Mao Miaomiao and his backer!

"Oh, you must be wanting to ask me, "What do you want from me?" correct? Well, I will be honest since I\'m planning to maintain our good relationship and trade agreements. You see, Mao Miaomiao and I are trade partners, and he\'s my generous customer. I don\'t want to become his enemy."

"…"

"I\'m planning to recreate the War Droids and add them to my products, my dear Wang Yun. Although I already created a lovely lady next to me, she was just a helper and a dutch wife. I need a real combat droid and… I stumbled on your soul fragment orb by an accident. So, I was thinking, can I recreate or imitate the infamous War Droids by using a soul fragment as a core? Say, may I experiment on you?"

PZZZZ

Electric static was released from Wang Yun\'s soul fragment orb as he was frustrated. He didn\'t like being used as a guinea pig.

BOOM

Suddenly, the glass tube exploded. The soul orb was forcefully ejected from the strange robotic body and sank into the shadow of a nearby giant scientific tube in the room.

"Oh, dear. I haven\'t finished speaking yet. WELP! The experiment is a failure once again. I didn\'t expect that he would have died so early and reclaimed the orb so soon! What a pity..."

The soul fragment of Wang Yun reappeared under the Siren City Wall, where he had hidden another orb underground. Two orbs merged and strengthened his soul.

WHOOM

Another soul fragment from another place also shadow-teleported there. Now, three orbs merged as one.

Wang Yun was relieved that he managed to escape from the hands of a suspicious Demon Lord. He also obtained crucial intel that he needed to inform Miaomiao and others ASAP.

But for now, he had to hide and recuperate from the injuries and the loss of his physique. Going out now was akin to suicide.

He wasn\'t in the clear yet as his nascent soul would slowly lose strength. He could also be captured by a world guardian at any moment.

\'I need a new body, but I can\'t possess any weak mortal.\'

ZAK ZAK

As Wang Yun was struggling to survive, he heard the movement noise of something in the ground. It sounded like a million sharp legs had been digging through the soil.

Wang Yun\'s soul mustered his strength to teleported there again. Then, he was surprised.

The giant flesh-eating ants from the dryad plane had been making a colony under Siren City. They created systematic tunnels and reinforced the ceiling with hardened structures like a man-made mine.

Moreover, the sound of water flow could be heard from afar. It seemed that the nest was connected to Siren City\'s sewer system.

As Wang Yun spread his Qi sense to observe them, he discovered that many 2-meter-tall ants carried sacks of dead monster fishes from the Blood Sea and buckets of spring water with their mandibles. The worker ants walked in a single line, carrying items from Siren City to their hive.

\'Damn, these guys are smart. Or rather, is this Jia Wenhe\'s work? He has been tampering with the sewer system for months. The last time I checked, he created a clean water system for the mermaids. Well, that\'s none of my business.\'

Wang Yun snickered in his mind as he was impressed by Jia Wenhe\'s water system and underground networks. At this rate, Siren City might have an underground city soon.

As Wang Yun was distracted, a giant ant picked up his soul orb and gently handled it between its mandibles. It carried the soul orb to the innermost part of the hive.

Wang Yun let the ant do so as he was low on energy. Even if these creatures were to eat the orb, he would automatically possess them, giving him another chance to live even though it wasn\'t preferable.

As soon as Wang Yun reached the innermost part of the hive, he found the massive larvae and cocoon chamber, where the ant queen had been laying eggs.

The orb was placed in front of the queen ant, who rested in the middle of the chamber.

She was another massive red ant, which was over 5 meters in height. Every part of her body was similar to a normal ant, but the thing in front of Wang Yun looked terrifying.

Strangely, the Queen Ant simply stared at the orb as if it understood what it was. She tilted her head and nodded at the orb several times.

Then, Wang Yun heard the queen\'s voice in his mind.

\'I see that you\'re in a predicament. Since we\'re working for the same lord, I shall help you get a new body.\'

Wang Yun was astonished. He hadn\'t heard of any intelligent Ant Queen before.

\'Who are you!?\'

\'I don\'t have a name, but I serve Her Majesty Emerald Hopea since I was born. And now, I\'m also working for Her Majesty Liu Guang.\'

\'Oh.\'

\'I shall insert your soul into one of my best children\'s cocoons. You might not like it, but that\'s the only way to survive and hide your presence from the nasty eyes of heaven.\'

\'So, I will become an ant?\'

The Queen Ant\'s mandibles wiggled as if she laughed.

\'You will become a special existence that I used to create in the past. Think of a humanoid ant or a queen bodyguard with a humanoid physique.\'

\'Hoh. Interesting.\'

While Ma Moxi and others believed that Wang Yun had been killed, the mysterious transmigrator\'s luck was still strong.

Had Miaomiao seen this, he would have exclaimed that Wang Yun\'s Plot Armor Power was too absurd. Under normal circumstances, he should have died like the mob characters, yet he survived because of his ridiculous teleportation skill and luck.

Like Ling Tianlong, Wang Yun swore that he would return this humiliation to the protagonist a hundred folds. For now, he could only entrust his fate to Queen Ant and regain a new physical body.

He hoped that the new physique would be compatible with his Shadow Element Qi and his secret abilities, which he rarely used.

Wang Yun\'s soul orb was inserted into a cocoon, which was the biggest one in this chamber. The Ant Queen also circulated her Life Essence, revealing her cultivation base.

She had the same strength and Qi volume as a 7th-stage cultivator, minus the nascent soul!

Although she was weaker than Wang Yun, her power was enough to support him. She injected all her Life Essence and Earth Element Qi into the unborn child in the cocoon and Wang Yun\'s soul orb.

\'Sleep. When you wake up again, don\'t forget to call me "Mother" and rub your antennas against mine. Or else, the other siblings of yours will shun you.\'

"…"
