These almost identical people have expressionless faces and no brilliance in their eyes. They shuttle through these complex honeycomb-like structures, each doing their own thing, without any communication with each other.

No sound, silence.

It's as if these people aren't human beings, but just robots that have been given certain instructions.

The knights following Joseph looked at each other, obviously shocked...

If they were facing a bloody and fierce battlefield, they would not have such a big reaction, but would feel that it was normal, but the quiet but strange scene in front of them was a kind of horror that touched people's hearts.

"What the hell is this..."

Joseph couldn't help asking such a question in a deep voice.

He had expected that in the depths of the mechanical reincarnation underground of the Society of Truth, there would be a dead place surrounded by the dense fog of highly toxic reagents produced by failed experiments, there would be monsters that were distorted due to this, there would be out-of-control mechanical equipment, and more were deep. A dusty place that has been dark for many years and no one has set foot in it...

But I never thought that there would be such a complete and complex architectural space under the Truth Society, and inside it was another world in operation!

This is simply tingling!

In the place where the Truth Society has been locked and never entered, even the keys have been abandoned for many years, there is such a well-ordered and huge experimental site that looks like the other Truth Society laboratories it has seen before.

So, does it mean that, like parasites, they have quietly existed here for decades, hundreds of years, or even... thousands of years with the help of the structure of mechanical reincarnation?

But the scholars of the Truth Society didn't know it, and they just kept living next to these things in front of them through a wall.

Just imagining it is enough to make people feel shuddering and creepy.

An enemy, or a remnant of a bygone era?

While waiting for Andrew's response, Joseph quickly looked around, and the knights behind him also dispersed consciously, protecting the two scholars who had almost no combat effectiveness in the middle.

He frowned fiercely, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he was.

First, there are those "things" that seem to have nothing to do with the word human except in appearance.

Joseph was sure that when they came in, there was definitely a perspective that could see them with his eyes, but these things didn't respond at all, and they were still doing their own things, as if they didn't exist.

These things... I'm afraid they don't have their own thoughts.

Secondly, all the equipment and buildings here, including the grounds, although old, are very clean.

This means that these things are very old and are often used...

This should be mutually contradictory, but if the previous assumptions are true, then things will become more reasonable. There is an unknown organization parasitic in the underground of the Truth Society, and has been using this piece of truth in the eyes of the Truth Society for a long time forbidden area.

But here comes the problem.

It is impossible for them to live in a self-enclosed way down here, so apart from the road opened by Hood, there must be another road that can connect the ground and the underground!

Then, it can be deduced that a conclusion with a high probability is true-there must be ghosts in the Truth Society, who are responding to them and providing them with resources and help!

Joseph's thoughts turned, and he thought of the incident of the inner ghost of the Truth Society before, and he understood instantly.

Andrew is absolutely aware of everything here, or at least he absolutely knows that there will be people in these areas, and the purpose of his coming down this time is probably to let Joseph help him catch the ghost, not to clean up the dangerous area .

"Damn it, these old bastards in suits really don't have a good thing, he just wants to use the Secret Ritual Tower as a weapon!"

Joseph cursed inwardly.

A group of people temporarily retreated to a corner like a crowd of stars.

Although those humanoid things did not respond to their existence for the time being, they couldn't pin their hopes on the fact that all the enemies were deaf and blind.

There is still work to be done to prepare.

"Artificial humans." Andrew took a deep breath and gave a firm answer: "These are...artifacts made with the Philosopher's Stone as the core."

Joseph turned his head and stared at him: "Artificial man? Is that your 'mud tire' project?"

Andrew nodded and said with a complicated expression, "But...it's different. Our 'mud tire' products so far can be said to be all failures."

"So these here are successful products?" Joseph immediately understood the meaning of Andrew's words, and pointed to the indifferent figures.

Andrew said: "Yes, but not either."

Damn it... Joseph wanted to punch this guy on the spot, but he held back and warned, "You'd better make it clear."

"The success of these artificial humans lies in the fact that their bodies have been perfectly integrated with the high-quality Philosopher's Stone, without any defects."

"Ether is unimpeded in their bodies. I believe you should be able to feel that their resonance has reached a terrifying level. As long as they learn and imitate, they will immediately become a powerful wizard or an outstanding scholar—— From that point on, they are perfect creations that couldn't have been more successful."

Andrew didn't seem to see Joseph's eyes as if he wanted to kill someone, and he said to himself: "I said they were unsuccessful because they were deprived of their minds."

"An artificial human without thought is just a useful tool and cannot be called a human being."

His eyes were more complicated: "But I think this failure was done on purpose."

"Deliberately..." Joseph repeated, and asked back: "In other words, the people who made them are not incapable, but only need tools?"

He was speechless in his heart.

If this is the case, then the energy and courage of the person behind the scenes may be more terrifying than they imagined.

He has also heard about this artificial human plan. The resources that the truth will use are absolutely beyond imagination, and there are so many perfect artificial humans in front of him, which will inevitably require more resources.

Paying so much, but using the product as a tool in the end, no matter how you think about it, it is too extravagant. How strong would it be if it was cultivated into combat power... unless...

An idea came to Joseph's mind.

Unless that person is a god, then he doesn't need these dispensable existences to help him.

"And, their prototype..."

Andrew said word by word, looking at an artificial human in a white coat passing by outside: "It was one of the three excellent samples that were confirmed missing after the attack and explosion of the mechanical reincarnation at that time—T1383."

"After that attack, we all thought that these samples were sent elsewhere by the ghost, so we searched the entire Nuojin vigorously, but so far there is no result..."

"It turns out that we were all wrong. They never left the mechanical reincarnation."
