After the two sides met up, Number One and the others didn't suspect Number Six and Number Eight. After all, no one would suspect themselves. Even Number Four and the others didn't think that someone could control their mechanical doppelganger and come over to meet up with them.
"Number Six, how did you end up like this?" Number Four asked in surprise.
So this mechanical doppelganger is Slayer's doppelganger Number Six …
Qi Yuan said silently in his heart.
"If you were surrounded by four patrolling sentinels, you would end up like this too," Number Six said with a bitter smile.
"If it wasn't for Number Eight passing by and receiving my distress signal, I would probably still be hiding in a corner waiting for death."
"How's the situation on your side? We followed the signs you left behind all the way here. Did you find anything? The two of us fought a few battles with the patrolling sentinels. The energy reserves are almost at the warning line."
Number Four and Number Five exchanged glances and then stepped forward to say, "Don't worry, Number One has already unlocked the information left behind by the Supreme Controller and found the warehouse where the energy cores are stored. He has also inherited the main body's AT force field. We will soon occupy the warehouse and get enough energy cores."
Number One looked at the two calmly, as if he didn't care about Number Four's deliberate provocation.
Tsk tsk!
It really started rolling!
Number One alone was able to make the other four team up. Moreover, he could use such a pretentious attitude to look down on them. This proved that Number One had the upper hand in this inner scroll. If he wanted to make this inner scroll more intense, he would undoubtedly choose the other side!
Number Six and Number Eight heard this and looked at Number One vigilantly. Then, they stood together with Number Four and the others.
Number One looked at them coldly, and a hint of mockery flashed in the depths of his eyes. If he didn't leave behind an absolute countermeasure, why would his original body choose to split up so rashly? Let alone six clones joining forces against him, even if all nine clones were against him, what could he do?!
However, although these doppelganger chose to oppose him, he couldn't let them suffer too many casualties. Otherwise, it would affect his strength during the final fusion and might even cause his rank to drop.
Number One patiently explained the things to pay attention to again and then began to arrange the next battle.
Qi Yuan secretly eavesdropped on Number One's plan through Number Six and Number Eight. He was slightly surprised.
This Supreme Overseer was quite something!
He had actually grasped so much information about the mechanical wasteland and even grasped the method to crack the defense system. If he had not followed them in, Slayer might have really gotten what they wanted from the mechanical wasteland!
Before they made their final move, Qi Yuan controlled Number Six, Number Four, and the others to walk together.
"Number One is completely unafraid of us joining forces. The original body must have left him some means to keep us in check. We have to be prepared in advance so that we don't end up benefiting Number One."
Number Four was silent for a moment. In the end, he shook his head and said slowly,
"It's not that simple. In fact, although we don't want to listen to Number One's orders, we don't have a choice. I can feel that the main body has left a command in our underlying logic. This should be Number One's method of controlling us."
"We haven't shed all pretense of cordiality yet. Number One will still negotiate with us in a friendly manner. Once we shed all pretense of cordiality, he will most likely use this command to take over our mechanical bodies."
"Although this will cause our combat power to decrease, at least we will completely obey his orders!"
Qi Yuan was instantly shocked. Slayer was actually so ruthless to his own clones!
However, when I turned Number Six and Number Eight into mechanical puppets, I had already modified their underlying logic. Although they would not be controlled by Number One, there was still a hidden danger. Once Number One secretly attacked Number Six and Number Eight, he would quickly know that they had lost control.
"Then what do we do now?"
Number Eight asked. "We follow Number One's orders and continue walking. Sooner or later, we will be merged by him."
Number Four looked around and said meaningfully, "What we should do now is clear.
"I think everyone should know what to do. Due to certain reasons, I won't say it directly."
As soon as Number Four finished speaking, the atmosphere suddenly became a little strange.
Qi Yuan's heart jumped. Number Four's words had a hidden meaning.
Was he suspecting that among these mechanical clones, some of them had already been secretly controlled by Number One?
However, this wasn't impossible!
To fight against Number One, the other mechanical clones had to work together. However, no one could be sure that among the clones working together, there was no one who was already controlled by Number One.
This was like a nail buried in the hearts of the others. Even if Number One did not make a move, it would cause the other clones to be wary of each other and be unable to work together.
This was destined to be an unfair fight. Although Number One looked weak, he was the strongest and could flip the table at any time.
They were afraid that Number One would flip the table, so they could only listen to Number One's orders. If Number One took over the other clones, it would also directly affect their combat power. Therefore, neither side dared to shed all pretense of cordiality and could only feign civility.
They had to add fuel to the fire. It would be best if they could kill Number One. Even if they could not kill him, they had to shed all pretense of cordiality. Only then would it be interesting to roll them up.
The few of them discussed for a while, but in the end, they could not come to a conclusion. They could only choose to listen to Number One's orders for the time being.
Number One quickly arranged the battle. There were a total of seven clones gathered here, and their opponents were eight mechanical sentinels.
The strongest, Number One, dealt with two mechanical sentinels on his own, while the rest of the clones each took on one.
With the strength of Slayer's mechanical doppelgangers, one against two would not be a problem, let alone a one-on-one. If not for Qi Yuan's two mechanical marionettes, there would not have been any suspense in this battle.
Qi Yuan did not make a sound, secretly controlling the other two mechanical puppets to approach. Ah Jiu and the two sentinels also followed closely behind.
Five Peak Type 6 mechanical puppets were weaker than the Slayer clones. Even if they worked together with the eight mechanical sentinels, they might not be able to defeat these clones.
However, Slayer's doppelgangers had already rolled up, leaving Qi Yuan with room to maneuver.
"I know that everyone's energy reserves are not much. This battle concerns everyone's interests. I hope that everyone can give it their all and end this quickly. If anyone acts on their own and affects everyone's interests, don't blame me for being ruthless!" Number One said in a low voice.
"Don't worry, we know what to do!" Number Four said coldly.
Number One looked around, before nodding, "Since that's the case, then follow the arrangements and prepare for battle. Listen to my orders."
The mechanical avatars spread out one after another, and after each of them chose an opponent, No. 1 immediately gave the battle order.
The seven clones walked out from their hiding places. Other than Number One who attracted the attention of two mechanical sentinels, the other six each attracted the attention of one mechanical sentinel. The battle was about to begin.
Ajiu, on the other hand, quietly approached Number One with a mechanical puppet and two patrolling sentries.
The show was about to begin!
Qi Yuan thought to himself.
After inheriting the main body's AT force field, so what if they were strong?!
Without the strength of a Type 7, even if they could fight one against two or three, could they fight one against seven?
