Last Totem Novel - Chapter 15

Chapter 15 Psionic Energy
“Crackle, crackle, crackle …”

In the quiet laboratory, clear knocks echoed.

A pair of exquisite hands danced like two elves dancing tango on a keyboard.

Time ticked by. Tie Zha looked at his watch. It was two o’clock at noon. He raised his head and said to You Ge, who was completely focused on operating the computer, “It’s almost time for us to set off.”

“Wait, it will take another 20 minutes.” You Ge said without looking back.

“Hurry up.” Tie Zha urged impatiently. There were corpses everywhere, and it would be uncomfortable to look at them for a long time.

About twenty minutes later …

“Time is up.” Tie Zha reminded him, but You Ge, who didn’t seem to hear him, still stared at the screen seriously.

Ten minutes passed again …

You Ge continues to operate the computer without the slightest intention of leaving. Tie Zha’s patience reached its limit. Just as he was about to go over and end Youge’s fiddling, a synthetic mechanical sound suddenly sounded above his head.

[Yoga Lombar, has the highest authority over the Northwest Natasha Institute]

[Hello, Miss Lombar. I’m Morsi Natasha, AI.]

[The solar cell is 95% charged and the Northwest Research Institute will return to the deep sand layer in two hours.]

Tie Zha and Ye Xinling looked around the ceiling in shock, as if they wanted to find the source of the sound.

“Moxi, activate the self-repairing system.” You Ge raises his head and says.

Yes, my princess. ]

With the sound of the synthetic sound, the sound of gears turning came from all over the walls of the laboratory. Small doors rose up from the smooth wall. Then, rectangular, short and tall crawled robots slid out of the small door. After entering the laboratory, they stretched out their tiny robotic arms and began to clean up the rubbish, repairing various places …

You Ge turns around nimbly, puts his hands on his back and stands on tiptoes, and says to Tie Zha with a smile, “Am I amazing?”

Tie Zha scratched his head and asked her what was going on. You Ge glances at Ye Xinling and says she will tell him later. Her meaning was very clear. She did not want to share this secret with Ye Xinling.

“Morsi, activate the defense system after I leave. Kill all intruders.”

Yes, my princess. ]

After giving the order, Youge pulled the shocked Tie Zha towards the exit. Ye Xinling hurriedly followed, she did not want to be erased by this mysterious system.

After the trio walked out of the research facility, Tie Zha dug out a red comet from the sand. After a while, he cleared the sand and stepped onto the motorcycle to set off. At this time, he finally regained his senses and remembered that there were still many spoils of war left in the research facility.

“Wait, the item is still inside.”

You Ge stops him and raises his head and says, “Moxi, bring over the items on the lab table.”

A mechanically synthesized voice came from nowhere.

Yes, my princess. ]

After a while, the two rectangular crawler robots brought out all the submachine guns, bullets, fragment grenades, and silver coins on the test bench. Tie Zha threw more than ten MP5s and most magazines into a crawler-type sand truck, and handed the silver coins to Ye Xinling, letting her drive the sand truck to the old cow in Tieshan Town.

After instructing Ye Xinling, Tie Zha handed You Ge an MP5 and a few magazines of bullets and said in a low voice, “Don’t shoot randomly!”

You Ge smiles and nods to Tie Zha. He skillfully checks the submachine gun, loads the bullets and pulls the safety bolt. He carries the MP5 on his back. The iron slag handed her another broken grenade and asked if she could use it.

“Let’s commit suicide. Let’s die.” With that, You Ge pretends to pull open the ring of the grenade.

The iron slag was furious and snatched back the shattered grenade. With a “miso” sound, the metal tab is still on You Ge’s fingertips, but the grenade is in the hands of the iron slag …

“You!” Tie Zha cursed angrily and threw the grenade far away.

A few seconds later, a sandstorm broke out in the distance, and a loud “boom” rang out. Accompanied by intense explosions, the sea of sand boiled like a pot of boiling hot water. In the next moment, hundreds of sandworms rose from the ground! The yellow sand covered the sky and the earth, and the scene was indescribably terrifying and spectacular.

Tie Zha cursed again and quickly started the motorcycle. You Ge hurriedly jumped onto the back seat and hugged him tightly.

“I’ll distract them and you leave from the side.” Tie Zha shouted to Ye Xinling.

Ye Xinling nodded and turned to get on the sand truck. Tie Zha tightens the accelerator and the six airbags are activated simultaneously. In the blink of an eye, the red comet rose from the ground and charged towards the swarm of sandworms.

You Ge cries out without any heart or lungs.

Right at this moment, a deafening scream rang out from within the swarm of sandworms! The sound of the earth being torn apart almost tore through the eardrums. You Ge desperately clutches her ears. She only feels that the world is spinning. This sudden sharp sound is like a steel needle piercing into her brain!

Tie Zha clenched his fists and smashed his head, driving away the dizziness caused by the shrill sound. Sandstorms erupted from the swarm of sand insects, and the yellow sand soared into the sky like a fountain. In the sandstorm, a giant insect soared into the sky!

The incomparably gigantic body of the insect covered the sky and covered the sun, casting a broad shadow over the sea of sand.

The giant insect’s shell shone with golden light in the dazzling sunlight. Looking up into the sky, the giant bug’s thousands of compound eyes were densely packed like resplendent gemstones.

This was the legendary king of the Sandstorm Bugs-the Golden Sandworm.

It was the first time Tie Zha had encountered such a legendary creature. Before this, he had only heard of it. The shock at this moment could not be described by words. If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that there was such a shocking monster in this world.

The red comet was fully powered, like a light boat in a boiling sea of sand. It would be drowned by the monstrous waves at any time, but it would still stubbornly break through the waves in the wind.

Not far away, Ye Xinling looked at the motorcycle in the swarm of sandworms. She could only feel her heart jumping out of her chest. In the next second, she gritted her teeth and stepped on the accelerator forcefully. The tracks of the sand truck started to spin at high speed, raising the dust and rushing towards the south.

Countless compound eyes rolled, focusing on the tiny red ant.

In extreme danger, Tie Zha subconsciously touched his pocket. Just as his fingers touched the metal cylinder, a mechanical synthesis sound suddenly sounded in his ears.

[Red Comet, activate psionic acceleration]

Just as the voice rang out, the six airbags simultaneously spat out light blue flames. In that instant, the speed of the red comet soared endlessly!

A meteor whistled between the sandworms, breaking through the swarm of insects in a few seconds and sprinting towards the north.

After staying out of danger, Tie Zha stopped the locomotive. He turned around and looked at You Ge as if this was the first time he had seen her. You Ge broke out in cold sweat and looked very weak.

“You’re actually a Psionic Adept!” The iron slag sighed.

“Can’t you?”

“But why are you trapped in the grocery store?” Tie Zha found it somewhat inconceivable. It wasn’t difficult for a Psionic Adept to kill Giant Mulberry.

You Ge smiles and says, “Give me a set of psionic power armor. I guarantee that I will leave a deep impression on you.”

Tie Zha immediately understood that Psionic Adepts without Psionic Power Armor did not have much combat power. He grinned and said, “I can impress you now.”

You Ge raises his sharp chin, lowers his eyes and says, “Come ~ Sister is waiting.”

Seeing You Ge’s contemptuous attitude, Tie Zha’s teeth itched from anger, and he wished he could bite him.

After a while, the charging of the motorcycle was completed, and the two of them continued northward.

The rest of the time, the journey was peaceful and peaceful.

During the night camping, You Ge told Tie Zha about the situation in the Northwest Research Office of Natasha.

Ryan Natasha is one of the greatest scientists in human history and one of the eleven top scientists who created the Psionic Power Armor more than 200 years ago. He is an academic authority on artificial intelligence, mainly responsible for the design of the AI system for psionic power armor.

After the psionic power armor appeared, it caused a huge change. Vase-like Psionic Adepts became the strongest of the new humans overnight. Over the next few decades, people with psionic bloodlines gradually became nobles among humans.

Ryan Natasha and ten other scientists gained supremacy and enormous social resources. However, with the changes in society …

(To avoid Tie Zha’s hostility, You Ge does not elaborate on this period of history-during the 30 years after the mass production of Psionic Power Armor, Psionic Adepts gradually gained control of Earth; Because people with psionic bloodlines would be more likely to give birth to the next generation of psionic beings if they combined with each other; Thus, after the psionic beings dominated the world, they were able to distinguish between psionic and non-psionic humans. In the following decades, Silver Cities rose from the ground, splitting all humans into two. Humans with psionic bloodlines account for 95% of the planet’s resources, while the rest of humanity compete for the rest.)

Natasha and seven other top scientists left the mainstream of psionic society and set up nine research institutes in different parts of the world. In the middle was a joint research institute of eight people, while the other eight were their personal research institutes from different directions. They are committed to changing the desertification environment and hope to change the current pattern of human beings.

However, in the years that followed, they did not appear again …

They are said to be reluctant to return to human society because their research has not yielded the desired results. The technological crystals created by these top scientists in the second half of their lives were also buried deep in the sand sea.

Natasha was a top artificial intelligence scientist, so the research he designed was fully intelligent. The research facility can operate independently, defend itself, and repair itself. Normally, they would hide in the deep sand layer and would only rise to the ground to absorb solar energy when there was almost no electricity.

You Ge obtaining the highest authority of the Northwest Research Institute is equivalent to obtaining a sanctuary or a small military base in the endless sea of sand.

“What’s the use of this?” Tie Zha asked seriously.

“Holiday.” You Ge replied without hesitation.

Hearing this irresponsible answer, Iron Slag’s entire body was in a bad mood. He looked at You Ge like a wolf that could pounce at any moment …
