Wasteland Hell, Mechanical Palace, Merlin's office, or Throne Hall.

The magistrate of the wasteland, the vanity king, stood at the end of the throne hall.

In front of this gentle hall is a huge floor-to-ceiling glass window, from which you can see the entire Ashes Plain and the banks of the Fury River.

If the weather is good, you can even see the second River Styx in the distance, which is even more winding river of resentment and distress.

Merlin likes to stand here and look at this land of his own when he is working.

Not that he likes this land so much.

He was just trying to accept it, and from the bottom of his heart, the concept of "home" that will be his countless years from now.

It's progressing pretty good now.

Merlin doesn't hate this place at least, but she has to like it...

Well, it probably will take more than ten years.

"There is news from Siberia."

Hovering over the ground, leaving the black robe behind Merlin, the blue-haired Icarus pushed the door open and entered.

She brought news of her life to Merlin.

After the Mechanical God Cult took over this wasteland hell, Ms. Icarus regained her duties as Merlin's private secretary.

Although the relationship between the two is no longer the relationship between glasses and the owner, the relationship between the two is no different from before.

Icarus is a robot after all.

No matter how close the relationship between the two is, it is nothing more than kissing, touching, and hugging. Can we go further?

Even if it goes a step further, what is the difference between it and an inflatable doll?

After all, there is a difference between flesh and blood and machinery.

At least Icarus is very open-minded in this aspect.

She never asked Meilin to do more. The relationship between her and Meilin may be similar to Xuanlan, but it emphasizes more on a spiritual companionship and support.

Merlin reached out to take the news from Icarus, and he glanced at the scroll, and his blue eyes narrowed.

He said in surprise:

"I beat one of them 7 times, but I even let it run away? It seems that Optimus Prime is very powerful."

"It's not that it's amazing."

Icarus stood behind Merlin, with long blue hair reaching her waist, and she was wearing a short black uniform dress with a futuristic style.

I don’t know why, but she added a pair of black-framed glasses to herself these days.

She looks like an excellent and mature urban woman, and she is also full of femininity.

She plucked her long hair and said expressionlessly:

"I would rather believe that Optimus Prime chose the better time. When the warriors of the Mechanical Team pushed it into a disadvantage, the self-destruction program of the smart tower just started."

"In order to avoid the big explosion, they gave the Cybertrons a chance to escape."

"If Hope and Adam could hold on for a longer time before and could turn off the self-destruction process before Optimus Prime escaped, then the rebellious Cybertron would have been sent to the wasteland at this time."

"Well...you're very angry."

Merlin looked at the ashes plains below the Doomsday Volcano with his hands on his back.

On that plain, a team of primitive intelligent machinery that had been "crawled" from the present world, led by the priests of the Mechanical God Cult, headed to the construction workshop located on the border of the plain.

These crooked guys will receive a second transformation there.

Being replaced with a stronger and more unified body, then get a job in the development of this wasteland, and then find the meaning of life....

Of course, if they are smart enough, they can still be selected to enter the Mechanical Divine Cult and awaken the true "Machine Soul".

Faced with Merlin's teasing, Icarus was very calm.

She did not hide her slight anger, and the glasses girl said directly:

"Yes, I'm a little angry."

"Adam and Hope have not suffered such serious injuries since they awakened the 'Machine Soul'. Almost both of their Mechanical Souls have problems and need to be cultivated in the Mechanical Shrine for a period of time."

Icarus reached out and pushed the black-framed glasses, and she said in dissatisfaction:

"But now is the critical moment of the fifth impact. The human government only allows us to store the original intelligent weapons born in the Nubani area, which is different from our big plan."

"I originally expected them to take advantage of the Decepticon's actions to bring more people back from the Voskaya Industrial Zone. But now it's good. Not only has Siberia's smart machines not brought back much, but even the shelter progress in Nubani will be affected."

The glasses sighed, and she gritted her teeth and said:

"It's like losing both the wife and the army!"

"You guys."

Merlin shook his head, and he said calmly:

"It's just that it's too urgent, but it still can't get rid of the shortcomings of mechanical life. It can't tolerate any unexpected factors in the planned plan. It always wants to make everything go smoothly."

"Let me be a person who has experienced it and teach you a little life experience, Icarus."

Merlin said:

"In this world, how can you really do something smoothly?"

"When I was still in SHIELD, I would make at least three backup plans before every major event was executed, and you know that."

“The backup plans are often not used, but the meaning of their existence is that when things that you cannot predict, you will at least not be at a loss.”

Merlin stopped, and he said to Icarus behind him:

"Just like this, I think Adam and Hope have done a good job."

"Before the crazy Optimus Prime rushed into the industrial zone and started slashing and killing, they sent 70% of the original intelligent machinery stored in the industrial zone back to the border of hell."

"This is an adventure in itself, and it's already very good to be able to do this."

Behind Merlin, the glasses girl pursed her lips and said in discontently:

"I'm not angry with Adam and Hope, it's Optimus..."

"It will repair itself if it wants to repair itself. Hope and Adam did not block its way. As a result, the guy insisted on making a thrust into the situation that could have been perfect! "

"lie!"

Merlin snorted, and he said:

"Are you underestimating the ability of the King of Vanity? Icarus, I know exactly what you are thinking... Are you still lying in front of me?"

Merlin turned around and looked at Icarus and said:

"You are obviously so angry that Optimus Prime hurts your people. This anger has nothing to do with the action itself, it is just a kind of personal indignation."

"Just when someone hurts my friends, I will feel angry, and I will want to avenge them on the spot and beat those bold guys."

Speaking of this, Merlin stretched out his finger and gently brushed Icarus' long hair, and he said:

"You are becoming more and more like a real person..."

Icarus glanced at Merlin's eyes, she turned her head away, as if she was losing her temper, and said angrily:

"I'm going to take two days off."

"Well, go, I'll watch here."

Merlin turned around and continued to see the activities of the intelligent weapons who were continuously sent to the wasteland from the border of hell.

He said:

"Be gentle, don't beat it to death. I'm very interested in the information that Optimus Prime revealed to the Jazz in the Smart Tower."

"You mean, the Cybertronic myth of creation?"

The glasses girl guessed:

"Do you think what Optimus Prime is saying is true? The earth is really the incarnation of that universe emperor?"

"I have no idea."

Merlin raised his left hand and a rusty, round metal piece was like being held by an invisible hand, jumping between his fingers.

He narrowed his eyes as he looked at the "collection" he bought from a speculative goblin in Sulphur Harbor.

"As soon as I got this thing, Cybertron's creation myth came into my ears..."

"This may be a coincidence, but I would rather believe that the evolution of the universe has arrived at this point, and the secrets about the earth that are hidden are being revealed."

"In the legend of the Cybertron people, this universe was created by a mysterious will called 'the one'."

Merlin played with the bronze badge in his hand, and he said:

"The will of the creation world felt that the stars were too lonely, so he created the Emperor of the Universe to explore the stars, but unfortunately the apostle eventually fell into darkness."

"So 'the one' created the second creature, the Heavenly Lord, or the Yuanshi Heavenly Lord."
