I Am Stuck In A Beta Test For 1000 Years

Chapter 343 343



Chapter 105. The Declaration of Freedom!

When Ethan opened his eyes, he saw a face that should have died.

His heart trembled, and a thought suddenly came to him...

Could it be... Is the world after death?

His desperate attack would cause serious damage to his body, and by then, he would have lost the ability to move. Moreover, with the other apostles around, it was impossible for him to survive... Thinking about it this way, it was understandable for him to be killed. He just didn\'t understand why they didn\'t do it before.

Perhaps it was a conflict between the apostles?

Damn, why did he care so much?

Ethan\'s thoughts returned to him. When his eyes met the gentle eyes in front of him, he suddenly cheered up.

However, just as he was about to open his mouth, he realized...

I don\'t seem to know his name!

No... Or should I say, I didn\'t have the time to ask?

He was frozen!

Ethan was stammering and didn\'t know what to say when he suddenly heard a familiar voice.

"Yo, you\'re awake?"

He raised his head and saw Char looking at him with interest. His heart skipped a beat and he blurted out, "You... You\'re also dead?"

"Huh? What do you mean by that?" Char did not know whether to laugh or cry, "What do you mean by me too?"

Ethan froze and turned to look at the infant carer in front of him. The latter covered her mouth and laughed, but her eyes were full of gentleness.

"What\'s going on..." The Dark Elf muttered and asked anxiously, "What about Maimon? Did he die? And what about the apostles? They, they..."

Ethan\'s voice gradually weakened, because he didn\'t know what he wanted to ask.

What should he ask?

"Are they dead? Is anyone hurt? "

He still couldn\'t bring himself to say such a thing.

On the one hand, it was because of his awkward identity. On the other hand, after he had completely calmed down from his anger and killing, he began to feel confused about the current situation.

What did he do...

"The apostles are all dead. I\'ve checked them," Char said. "Their items are all intact and not used, so you won\'t be treated as a snitch."

Hearing him say that, Ethan subconsciously let out a sigh of relief, and then he suddenly came back to his senses.

That didn\'t seem right.

Why did he say that?

"Young man, there are two choices in front of you." Char did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point. "First, I\'ll give you a few things as spoils of war from exploring Ravesland. You can bring them back to show the Queen. As long as the scholars of the royal court don\'t have bird poop in their heads, they\'ll understand what these things mean. Then, you\'ll be promoted, get a raise, marry a fair, rich, and beautiful woman, and live the life you\'ve been dreaming of... Remember, no matter what the Empress promises you, even if she wants to sleep with you, don\'t come here. You\'ll die if you come here."

"Of course, everything here has nothing to do with you," he continued after a pause. "You can treat it as a dream, including your love that died before you were born."

Ethan didn\'t respond.

"The second. This is very important. You have to abandon your identity as a shadow samurai, abandon your sense of belonging to Andaheim, or to be precise, abandon everything and treat yourself as one of Ravesland\'s people."

"Ah?"

Ethan called out in shock.

"Why?"

"No reason. Of course, if you really want to find a reason, it\'s probably because I hate Dark Elves. Hmmm... Yeah, that\'s mostly the reason." Char added.

There were many reasons why he hated the Dark Elves. He hated their stupidity, arrogance, and cruelty. If one had to find a suitable word to describe it, it would be "stupid".

That\'s the problem with the root of Andaheim\'s education, which was an inevitable outcome and the premise of everything that happened later. After being exiled underground and infected with the curse, the Dark Elves needed a certain emotion, or rather, collective acknowledgment, to help them survive in the dark underground.

And this was hatred.

Just like alcohol, it could make people temporarily forget their pain and worries, but after waking up, they would feel extremely empty.

What to do?

Just don\'t wake up.

Therefore, because of hatred, they would use conspiracy theories as the basis of their thinking. They would think of the worst possible outcome for everything, which was quite stupid. When two groups were negotiating important matters, it was necessary to consider the matter as it was, think rationally, and weigh the pros and cons. It was a pity that the Dark Elves of Andaheim did not have such qualities.

Therefore, it was impossible to negotiate, at least not now. They couldn\'t be reasoned with, so they could only make some progress secretly.

Andaheim had a population of nearly a hundred thousand. If they were forced into a corner, there was no guarantee that the Dark Elf royal family would not do anything crazy. If the entire population of Andaheim rushed to the surface, there would be nearly that amount of terrorists, which would definitely be a big problem for Elfheim.

At that time, the United Holy Kingdom would then act as the messenger of justice and intervene, accurately adding insult to injury... Char had seen this before.

That was why Ethan was very important.

The Dark Elf finally snapped out of his daze and began to realize the severity of the situation.

However, he was uneducated and could only analyze that Char might be unfavorable to the royal family, but he could not think of any bigger changes.

Char could not help but lament about the lack of education.

Even in Elfheim, an elf who had just come of age, could analyze the situation so well and say things like " The current situation is turbulent, and the royal family is weak. We should rise up." (referring to the era before the governor was replaced). At least he dared to think about it, let alone whether it was right or wrong.

So, he had to explain to Ethan what he was trying to do, blabbering on and on.

Before he could finish, Ethan was completely stunned.

He probably never thought that he would actually follow the top spy who tried to subvert the regime of Andaheim for so long, and even owes the other life!

No, it was several lives!

How should he choose?

Ethan was caught in the most difficult decision of his life.

On the other hand, it was the persistence and belief of the first 120 years, which had been integrated into his blood, mixed with the loyalty of the shadow samurai profession.

On one hand, it was the changes and impacts that he had experienced today.

His rationality told him that he didn\'t have to choose. Was he going to betray them so easily? And deny everything in the past... This wasn\'t realistic!

However, to be honest, all the years of his life added together were not as exciting as this day.

Even he didn\'t realize the crack that was buried after he saw Maimon and his people leave after the "disappearance of the Blue Moon" had now become a canyon, and it was getting bigger and wider. One day, he would be completely separated from Andaheim... He just hadn\'t made the decision yet.

Seeing his hesitation, Char knew that he had succeeded.

If he hesitated, he would give it to him for free. If he hesitated, it would be really great. This was something he couldn\'t escape.

"Think about it carefully, and recuperate while you\'re at it."

Char patted his shoulder and left.

Of course, he didn\'t forget to leave the android infant care master behind.

...

Ethan was settled in a toy factory in the fourth district. Char had used the "heart of the city" to transform it into a temporary rehabilitation center, the lowest level building. It could barely be considered a medical institution, but it was not considered part of the city\'s infrastructure.

If one had to say, it was not even as good as a public toilet, because it was not included in the city\'s overall circulation system.

Fortunately, this was the fourth district, so only a small amount of manpower and material resources were needed to modify it, unlike the ruins of the Upper City District and the core area, which could not be restored that easily.

Seeing Char come out, Mungo and the others immediately surrounded him.

"That guy will be fine."

Char explained, and then looked at Sharon.

"Everyone\'s here, right?"

He\'d rushed over after hearing the commotion, and then reconstructed the dozen or so people involved in the battle with the memory cards left behind by Fitzrock, including Ethan\'s baby girl.

This naturally had an immeasurable impact on the young androids, and now Char had to explain it to them.

"They\'re all here. There are 704 of them, not including Masha (Infant Carer).

Char nodded and found a relatively high place, standing straight under the gazes of more than seven hundred people.

After a moment of silence, he said,

"Not long ago, I met with Fitzrock."

The crowd gasped in surprise.

To these androids, Fitzrock was the number one figure in their hearts. Everything about him, his food, clothing, shelter, everything in the Upper City District were from him. This name had almost seeped into their entire life...

"Then where is he?" Someone couldn\'t help asking.

That was what most people wanted to ask.

"He\'s dead." Char said, "Just die according to the way he planned it, peacefully and calmly. But it made a lot of noise. I think you\'ve all heard it.

"You killed him?"

A question was thrown out.

"No, it was his ideals that killed him." Char replied, "He used his own death to put an end to an experiment, and the rest was left for future generations to observe. He left behind such an idea that as a "creator", if he wanted his creations to grow healthily and truly become intelligent creatures like humans, they should not be disturbed, especially from the side of creator and a higher dimension... And his "creations" are you guys."

There was complete silence below.

"Yes, it\'s you. It\'s not the nobles of the Upper City District who have been reduced to wax statues, nor the cold weapons that were destroyed by the beast guards in the weapon manufacturing factory. It\'s you. He said that they could listen, feel, think, laugh, and cry, but they had never enjoyed "freedom" in the past... Now, he gives you your freedom."

"He named you as the Ji Kai race."

Sharon raised her head and looked at Char. She muttered the two names "Ji Kai race" and "Fitzrock", and felt a warmth in her heart.

The other androids also had dazed looks in their eyes, and it was unknown what they were thinking.

A faint sense of nostalgia lingered in the air above the seven hundred people.

After a long while.

Char took out the memory card.

"This is a backup of the will of 2254 androids, including all of you, as well as the individuals who were destroyed in the past due to the "survival point system". The last order that Fitzrock left was for me to restore you to your original state and then destroy this card.

"For you, life is no different from the past, just more "freedom"."

"You will still retain the fear of death, and then explore the meaning of life, and... The reason for Fitzrock\'s actions."

"Yes, perhaps you\'re all curious as to why he did that. To be honest, by asking such a question, you have proven that you are a "human". All intelligent life was thinking about why we lived, the meaning of our existence, and what the relationship between our short and fragile lives and the eternal universe was... Of course, that includes me."

"Please keep thinking like this. Live in pain, think in confusion, but also maintain your "human" characteristics. You\'ll soon realize that this damned freedom has both intoxicating sweetness and pain that you can\'t let go of. This is the feeling of "living". This is every minute and every second that is truly in your hands."

The crowd fell into a long silence. Every android was thinking.

As they acknowledged Char\'s words, a sense of belonging was slowly building up.

Ding!

[You\'ve completed the mission "Fitzrock\'s last wish (I)". You\'ve received 152500 exp, 100 city development points, and building redemption voucher LV1\' X2.]

-

[Building Redemption Voucher]

Consumable item

Exchange for a level 1 building. The initial construction speed is 120-180 minutes. The actual efficiency is affected by the level of the mechanic.

-

Eh?

Char was stunned by the sudden reward.

City development points could only be obtained by a consul after they completed achievements and honors such as "defending against foreign enemies" or "prosperity level reaching xxx points". they could be used to exchange for supplies and speed up the construction of buildings.

There was no need to talk about the redemption voucher. Although the level was low, it was good enough to have food at the moment. Who would care about that? These two things could be considered timely supplies.

However, Char suddenly became alert.

This meant that the exploration of the Ravesland ruins had not ended, but had just begun.

If he were to check the content of the ruins, kill the junior Labyrinth guardians, and receive the legacy of Fitzrock as the full exploration of the ruins of Ravesland, it would be way too fast. It would be a little unfair for such a grand ruin, so the real \'ruins exploration\' would be after he took over Ravesland.

In other words, he didn\'t get any reward from Fitzrock, but instead, he got a mess.

It was foreseeable that as the city continued to be repaired, trouble would come one after another.

"It\'s too difficult for me..."

Char pouted and snapped his fingers, drawing everyone\'s attention back.

"What we just talked about, we call it "experiencing life". Now, let\'s talk about material things."

He broke into a smile.

He was smiling like a fox.

The android didn\'t think so much. It temporarily raised its head from its thoughts and looked at him curiously.

"Ravesland is now in ruins. We need to rebuild it so that you can live in it. Before that, we need manpower. In other words, we need to fully recover your companions first..."

"This is a question of whether the chicken or the egg came first." The bionic Man couldn\'t help but ask, "You were able to help Masha recover because her body only needs to be repaired. But where will the bodies of those who have been destroyed be produced from? "

"You\'re right, this is indeed a chicken and egg problem, but we don\'t have to go through so much trouble now, we can take it all."

Char immediately used two redemption coupons and chose the two buildings, Energy Station Level 1 and Research Station Level 1.

106. The "True Tool Man" plan.

Char\'s mechanic level was 50, so the construction time of the two buildings was halved.

He chose the location of the "recycling station" in the riveted area. The land there was flat and the view was wide. Most importantly, the two sentry towers that he had previously dismantled had two perfect foundations left, which could be used to build more impressive sentry towers.

Of course, that was in the future.

After he used the redemption voucher, a gust of wind suddenly blew.

The strong wind swept the debris of the Upper City District to the riveted area, and the long mist that had dissipated with the Turing tower inexplicably gathered.

The two buildings, which were not visible for the time being, began to dig the foundation and insert the brackets in front of everyone\'s eyes, slowly \'growing\' at a speed visible to the naked eye ...

Char was also stunned ...

It wasn\'t like this in the past!

In the past, when the redemption voucher was used, the entire city would fall in front of you with a \'Swoosh\'... Unlike now, where even the magical construction process was perfectly presented.

However, Char\'s heart also trembled as he watched.

This was the power of the system, this was also the power of the rules. Then, was it also such a great power when Ruerwei created everything in the world?

It was awesome!

"This is... The power of a God?" An android could not help but ask.

"No..."

Char mumbled.

"The "God" you mentioned definitely doesn\'t have such power..."

..

The [Energy Station Level 1] was quickly built. At a low level, it was like a three-story luxury public toilet, looking particularly simple.

The energy was divided into two sides according to its use and was separated by a wall. The half-hanging door curtain looked like a men\'s and women\'s toilet.

This thing could not generate energy out of thin air. Its function was to process all energy materials, including the gray crystal, and convert the energy used for combat into something similar to electricity.

When the Turing tower was destroyed, the solidified spirit mist in the ruins had been mixed with the materials of the Turing tower to form magic-conducting cement, which was all kept by Char in the Pseudo Divine Space. Now, it could finally be put to use. He had taken out a part of it and had the androids process it into bricks before sending it to the energy station.

The fourth district used to be powered by the Uptown, but now that it had been destroyed, it was pitch black. However, with the normal operation of an [Energy Station Level 1], the power supply of the entire fourth district was restored.

The Android revealed a comfortable smile, but Char could not smile.

I can\'t laugh!

A power plant could supply everything, which only meant one thing...

The infrastructure in the fourth component area was really low!

The infrastructure of this level could not have much combat power, which meant that it was impossible for him to form combat power here in a short time. He would have to start farming from scratch.

About 15 minutes later, the [Research Station Level 1] was completed.

Then, this thing would take away 50% of the energy output of the energy station...

Alright, then.

In other words, the entire fourth district would only have the energy consumption of two research stations and a plantation would be established.

Char scratched his head as he looked on. He did not stop and plan for the construction location of the second energy station, then assigned more than 300 androids to search for supplies under the lead of the prairie people.

Looking at the clumsiness of these people who lacked the means of transportation, Char suddenly felt the bitterness of an RTS game.

A number of farmers in a main city ...

Forget it, he did not even have a main city.

After that, he walked into the Research Station.

The size of the Research Station was similar to the biological Laboratory in an ordinary college. The main site could accommodate about 15 people for experiments. The rest of the place was occupied by machines and fixed empty boxes for storing materials. It was more like a factory than a laboratory.

"This can\'t be compared to the laboratory of the mushmen..."

Char rubbed his chin and muttered.

He took a look at the control panel... High-level creation like the Android could only be unlocked when it was at least Level 3. Now. he could not even create bionic arms and legs. At best. he could create some tissue organs and simple response chips...

And these were not yet exported goods because most of the materials needed for the upgrade of the Research Institute came from their own output.

At this stage, he could only consider being self-sufficient.

"What should I do..."

Char stared at the list of items in a daze and suddenly glanced at a "carrier chip γ" that could be produced at Level 2.

The function of this thing was very straightforward. The consciousness of the Android was mainly carried by such a chip, similar to the human cerebral cortex. Therefore, an Android required not only one chip, but a lot of it.

Of course, in order to form a healthy Android, just the chip was not enough. In order to achieve complex functions, the other organs that were coordinated with the chip were also extremely important.

However, this was from the perspective of a "human."

For example... I temporarily placed a set of chips on the car, the mechanical arm, the excavator, and the mining mule?"

Wouldn\'t a True Tool Man be born?

Wouldn\'t it be better to just replace them when they had enough production in the future?

He did as he said!

Char looked at the level 1 to Level 2 resources. They were almost the maximum exchange points of 100 city development points, so he gritted his teeth and exchanged them!

After that, upgrade the Research Station!

With a bang, Char was thrown out of the Research Institute.

The upgrade began.

Char didn\'t stay idle either, and he led a group of androids straight to the Capacitive area.

"You, you, you, and you guys, follow me!"

The group arrived at the door of Kuris\' workshop.

Looking at the familiar scenery, not long ago, Kuris had staged the opening of the black market for him, but now...

"Things remain the same, but people change..."

Char sighed and pointed.

"Dismantle this place and transport all the materials that can be used back. Don\'t dismantle the mechanical arms, transport vehicles, multi-purpose mining shovels, and other equipment. By the way, I remember that there are two mine carts hidden behind the workshop. I forgot to take them last time, so take them with you."

"Yes."

The androids began to follow Char\'s orders.

Char walked around the workshop a few times and suddenly thought of 875 and its three little friends. After a few words of advice, he walked towards the suburbs where 875\'s house was.

..

The small house of 875 stood there alone with flickering lights.

As soon as Char got close, the light went out, and the door was pushed open. Three guys wrapped in cypress leaves rushed out.

A bear was carrying a goose in its arms and a mechanical squirrel was lying on its head.

"It\'s you?"

The bear named Bill heaved a sigh of relief.

"Where\'s 875?"

"He... Went to another place." Char replied, "Before he left, he asked me to come and pick you three up. By the way, I don\'t need the Cypress leaves anymore, the spirit breath here has disappeared."

"F*ck you, did you sell the 875?" The toy goose stretched out its neck and cursed, "Tell me the truth, or you won\'t have a good time! I\'ll Peck you to death!"

Char was about to explain, but the bear gently pinched the toy goose\'s mouth and stopped the vulgarities.

It looked up at Char with a serious expression that it had never seen before.

"Is Fitzrock dead?"
