Chapter 194 Chapter 194: The Blood-Red Sky

In the face of such a bizarre phenomenon, the maid remained expressionless. In her dictionary as an intelligent machine, there were no words like "shock" or "confusion." Although she didn't understand the situation, she quickly turned around and looked back toward where the gunshot had just come from.

Logically, whoever fired the shot and saved her from the monster's mouth should at least harbor good intentions towards her. Perhaps she could get some information from them.

But when 86 actually looked in that direction, she was momentarily stunned, as if experiencing a brief short-circuit.

Because

What the maid saw was another maid.

Another one, identical to her.

The other was holding a sniper rifle. Seeing herself looking over, she didn't even spare an extra glance and quickly aimed the gun elsewhere, continuing to fire with bangs.

And when 86 followed the line of sight of this gun-wielding maid, she realized that she was now in the midst of a...

Battlefield.

Under the blood-red sky above, countless bizarre, twisted Miasma monsters, like the one Eileen had just transformed into, were rampaging across the land.

Their dense numbers stretched as far as the eye could see, forming a black tide threatening to devour everything.

But the reason this tide of monsters was forced to halt its advance was due to the intensely concentrated barrage of gunfire.

The bombardment of artillery fire landed precisely at the monsters' feet, each strike perfectly blowing a dozen or so monsters into the air.

Some giant monsters, as tall as small buildings, relied on their immense size to forcefully break through the bombardment. But whenever this happened, beams of azure blue lasers would precisely target and pierce through the limbs of the giant monsters. After disabling their mobility, familiar sniper rifle shots would follow.

The scorching armor-piercing rounds pierced through the monsters' shells, hitting their cores. The behemoths could only let out a reluctant roar before falling to the ground, motionless.

Whether it was the artillery fire, the laser energy beams, or the sniping at the core, all the resisters against the tide of monsters on the battlefield were her, them.

That's right.

In fact, compared to the side of the monster tide, although those monsters all emitted a strong Tainted Miasma aura, becoming deformed and bizarre under its influence, at least each of them looked different.

But on the other side, it was a uniform sight of maids, all with exactly the same faces, all with expressionless expressions.

This was a mechanical army composed of dozens of "hers."

*Boom!*

Before the tide of monsters behind the sniper maid even got close, a loud noise erupted from the ground beneath her. Chunks of earth flew, and from the gaping hole in the ground emerged a giant abyssal maw, like a flesh worm's mouth full of sharp teeth.

This Miasma flesh worm, bursting suddenly from underground, bit the defenseless maid in half at the waist. Electric sparks burst from her waist, tracing an arc in the air along with her severed body, which then crashed to the ground and was quickly trampled into remains by the pursuing horde of monsters.

Throughout the process, 86 could do nothing but watch helplessly as the tide of monsters continued toward her, eventually engulfing her as well.

*Swish!*

"86! 86! What's wrong with you! Hey! Don't scare me!"

"Damn it! Did I accidentally damage some critical part of her?"

"Can it still work if I pat it like before? No, I need to hurry and take 86 to Old timer!"

When 86's vision cleared again, the first thing she saw was an anxious Eileen. Looking around, she found herself back beside the fountain under the night sky.

The previous monsters, desolate land, maid troop, and... that blood-red sky had all vanished.

It was as if everything had been just a momentary... illusion.

Do robots experience illusions?

The answer is definitely no.

86's chip was frantically processing, and after multiple analyses, she could only find one reason for the explanation.

[Abnormal data]

It was that set of foreign data that spontaneously appeared from her master's first "dream" and those scenes just now were probably from that data.

Moreover, although it was strange for a robot, 86 had a strong intuition.

That sniper maid was the one who left her the data.

No.

Rather, it was the entire maid troop. They were all one, all sisters of 'Zero.'

So...

What exactly were those scenes? Where were they really, and what were they fighting against? What was the purpose of leaving her with these images? And

What did that phrase [Your turn now] mean?
