Fallen Chronicles

Chapter 313 Chapter 313: I Told You Not to Eat It

Daily 2/2

“Pull it out! Hurry up and pull that bastard out of her body!!”

Under the furious roars of Director Alex, the seven mechanical gladiators, who had been completely obedient and diligent, suddenly stopped in their tracks.

“What are you doing! Didn’t you hear my order!”

Seeing the mechanical gladiators moving sluggishly, Director Alex grew even angrier, a situation that had never occurred before. And then, he saw a hint of fear in these mechanical gladiators.

Director Alex wondered if he was seeing things, but those retreating under the red mecha, even neglecting to protect him, were giving him the loudest reality slap.

“Go on! Get on with it!”

The irritable Director Alex even kicked the steel skeleton of the gladiator next to him, but to no avail.

Until

“Step back”

Another command was issued, but this time it wasn’t from Director Alex, but from the Red Dragon mecha.

After this command, the gladiators, whom Director Alex couldn’t get to move no matter what, all obeyed as if they had heard a royal decree. They stood upright, clashing their spears and round shields together in a salute, and then turned around without hesitation, heading back the way they had come.

“Come back!”

“Where are you going!”

“I am your master, come back to me!!”

No matter how Alex screamed, the reality was that in just a few seconds, the passage that had been blocked by seven mechanical gladiators now had only Alex left alone on the opposite side.

“I knew it! It was you who hacked into their system! Damn it! How much of the old era’s technology do you have?!”

“It’s okay, I still have… I still have a way!”

First, he was greatly shocked by someone else entering the body of the ‘goddess’, and now he was betrayed by the mechanicals he trusted. Director Alex’s mentality had undergone a significant twist, becoming crazy and desperate.

Quickly, he took out a pill emitting a halo from his pocket. Under the holy light, the capsule seemed like a strong heart tonic for his shattered spirit, restoring some of his brilliance.

“Isn’t it just old era’s technology? Don’t think you’re the only one who has it!”

Renji: “…”

“Heh!, from the look on your face, you know about this ‘Goddess’s Medicine’, huh? Hahaha!”

Director Alex, seeing Renji’s surprised expression at the pill in his hand, felt as if all the previous setbacks had come back at once, instantly gaining a great sense of satisfaction.

After all, in terms of rarity, his ‘Goddess’s Medicine’ is indeed one of the most precious items within Dream Zero, the best proof being that they have yet to find even one person who has taken the sacred medicine within Dream Zero to this day!

This indicates that the sacred medicine is likely only worthy of the “Emperor” himself!

Following this, Director Alex, like a cuckolded victim finally getting a chance to unleash his small universe, naturally wanted to take his revenge on Renji and show off in front of him.

“You should also know that the five Miasma Masters of Dream Zero are transformed from the personal guards of the Emperor in reality, right? Legend has it that when the young emperor was seriously injured and trapped among the Miasma monsters, in a desperate situation, a nun accompanying him condensed the power of holy light of her lifetime into the sacred medicine and personally fed it to the emperor. Not only did it revive the seriously injured emperor immediately, but it also greatly increased his strength, allowing him to sweep through millions of Miasma monsters with the power of one man!”

Renji: “.”

He didn’t remember this part.

Seeing Renji silent and speechless, to Director Alex, it seemed more like he was shocked, so he laughed even more wildly, almost bursting with pride.

“That’s right, the one in my hand is the Goddess’s Medicine that the nun offered to the emperor back then. It’s a sacred medicine that only Emperor Ashen is worthy of enjoying. And now, it’s in my hands, it will become my power! I will receive the same treatment as Emperor Ashen!!”

Renji: “.”

“First of all, the nun never fed the emperor any medicine; she would only use the more direct Divine Healing. Secondly, I suggest you don’t take this medicine; you can’t handle it.”

Renji, who was first hostile, suddenly felt somewhat sad for Director Alex, but this led into even more wild laughing,

“Hahaha! You’re scared! You’re scared!~”

“What makes you think you can deny history? Who do you think you are? You’re just envious of me, you’re jealous of me! You’ve never even seen the true face of the Holy Kingdom’s Goddess in your life, while I, I get to consume the Goddess’s medicine and receive her blessing!”

Seeing Renji still using such lame excuses to stop him from taking the medicine, Alex could feel Renji’s fear. Because of this, he became even more eager. He had to take it, and he wanted to do it in front of Renji, to let Renji watch him consume it, just like a few minutes ago when Renji entered the body of the mecha maid in front of him. This was his revenge!

“Watch and be glad you’re a witness. At this moment, I… will transform into the emperor!!”

After quickly swallowing the sacred medicine, Director Alex spread his arms towards Renji, like a divine child receiving a power blessing on horseback, stepping onto the ladder of the strong, even comparing himself to the emperor.

And as a result…

“Uh, what… is this?”

“Cough, cough. Blood, blood?”

“My organs… my stomach… I… no… this, what this!”

In less than five seconds after taking the sacred medicine, dark blood began to overflow from the corners of Alex’s mouth, followed by unstoppable bleeding from all seven orifices, and his body violently convulsed. He was like a drowning man sinking into the deep sea, enveloped by a strong sense of suffocation, his vision quickly blurring.

In the last moments before Director Alex’s consciousness faded, he vaguely saw the young man opposite him approaching.

“Sigh… I told you not to eat it.”

“This damages the image of my wife …” 𝙡𝒊𝓫𝓻𝓮𝙖𝙙.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Renji muttered as he walked past Director Alex. 𝓁𝘪𝘣𝘳ℯ𝒶𝘥.𝘤𝑜𝓂

“Your… your wife?”

Thud!

Director Alex’s body fell to the ground. Even the super A-grade cyborg body, which was immune to all diseases and activated the highest power emergency rescue program, couldn’t bring Alex back, turning him into a corpse with eyes wide open.

No, it can’t be said that he died with eyes wide open.

Because the killer following behind Renji, who passed by, kicked Director Alex’s corpse with the metal heel of her shoe, moving the corpse out of the way.

Thanks to Director Alex, Renji had an easier time afterward. Soon, a huge metal gate appeared in front of him, behind which was the core central machine store of Kael Technology.

Even 86 couldn’t hack it, because the gate was not electronically controlled, using the most traditional gear key.

At this moment, Renji’s long-prepared Dragon Mecha finally came into play. He drew out the blazing long sword, directly cutting the large gate in two, and quickly stepped into the machine room, where he saw a floating, spinning cube in the corner. That was their target for this trip, the collection of the consciousness chips of the machine servants.
