Chapter 173 Betrayer

This white icy air was so cold that the water vapor in the air quickly condensed into frost and covered the armor of the fourth template. The roar of the engine became sluggish. In just a few seconds, the Gundam The two-and-a-half-meter steel giant had turned into a huge white ice sculpture in the air.

After a while, the white fog slowly dissipated.

The pupils of the fourth template flickered with a red light that alternated between hot and cold.

The steel is frozen at low temperatures, but the psychic energy remains fiery.

Click!

A slight crack appeared on the surface of the white ice cube, and then the crack spread quickly, expanded, and fell to the ground with a crackle.

Small arc lights and electric currents flashed across the armor's surface.

The status of the fourth template is restored and recovered from the frozen state.

The temperature of the machine increased, a faint red light flashed all over his body, and large swaths of water vapor emerged from his body.

Su Heng opened his eyes and his senses returned.

The scenery in the room unfolded in front of him. The room was empty, with nothing else except a huge steel freezer in the center.

The freezer door has been opened.

The freezing air, which has extremely low temperatures and absorbed a large amount of heat energy, should have escaped from this cabin as expected.

In the freezer.

A tall dark green figure has woken up.

He is about 2.3 meters tall, only slightly shorter than the current fourth template. The pupils were glowing red, the armor was quite thick, and there were countless sharp spikes on the corners of the shoulders.

The mechanical pupils of the fourth template shrank slightly, making the sound of gears turning.

At this time, Su Heng saw that there was a black iron sword in the soldier's hand. The iron sword was heavy and thick, two meters long, and it had no edge.

Before Su Heng entered the room, the machine had already woken up.

He stood in the black low-temperature warehouse, his body also covered with frost, looking at the visitor through the hazy fog.

a long time.

The frost on the giant's body gradually melted in the heat emitted by the engine.

He moved his body.

First he stumbled, making a series of rapid steel collision sounds, and almost fell to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, he adjusted his body at an astonishing speed, regaining his balance before falling. Using the blade of his sword to support himself, his heavy body turned over and stood up as nimbly as a cheetah.

Click!

The black iron sword was put back behind him.

He jumped off the black base of the freezer, took two steps forward, and knelt down in front of Su Heng.

"Father, we meet again."

He spoke.

The sound was like two pieces of thick, rough steel rubbing against each other, and it was extremely harsh.

"Father?"

After hearing this title, Su Heng was stunned for a moment.

As silicon-based life forms, it is unlikely that they would reproduce like animals.

Therefore, the only possibility is that these templates are created by the fourth template.

"Why do you call me that? Did I create you?"

Su Heng had no intention of hiding his doubts. In fact, there was no way to hide this kind of thing.

He knows nothing about the golden age, psychic powers, reproductive equipment...all kinds of messy things.

The Void Manzo that recorded all of this was almost completely destroyed during the war, and was barely repaired with the help of the system.

If you just don't understand some of the key points, you can also find ways to make excuses.

But the current situation.

It's better to be honest. After all, honest people are always more likely to be trusted by others.

Uh-huh!

After hearing Su Heng's question.

Brother Attas, who was half kneeling on the ground, suddenly raised his head, his eyes as sharp as swords.

"So you've already forgotten it?"

The red light in the mechanical pupils gradually dimmed, and he explained to himself, "But it's no wonder. After more than three hundred years, many things will be forgotten."

"Father."

He stood up, put his hand on his chest, and introduced himself,

"My name is Horus, and I am the caretaker of this church. I am responsible for cleaning up the monsters that break into the church, and waking up my brothers when necessary."

Horus paused and said, "Now, I think the time to wake up has arrived."

"Um?"

Su Heng nodded and followed Horus, "Take me with you."

"no problem."

Horus nodded, took a step forward, and stepped into the corridor.

Su Heng followed closely behind.

As you walk, hear about the history of psionics and Athas modification.

"The birth of Athas modification has a long history, and the beginning of this history comes from psychic energy."

The two of them were not walking very fast.

Horus explained the things that had happened in the past in a clear and orderly manner. Su Heng followed behind him, his eyes flowing back and forth on the black broad-bladed sword.

“In some very special environments, humans or animals will explode with incredible power.

For example, when a mother's child is run over by a vehicle, she suddenly explodes with great force and lifts the vehicle. In human epic records, there are also stories of generals shooting tigers. "

Horus' voice seemed to have recovered during this time.

His voice became smooth, low, and even had a slight magnetism.

"Psychic energy widely exists in every individual intelligent creature, but only a very small number of lucky people can develop this part of the power. These lucky people are called psychics."

The corner when the two passed by.

The silver-white prayers still flickered faintly on the wall.

Su Heng saw the two criss-crossing sword marks on the prayer. The thickness and depth of the edges were exactly the same as the giant sword behind Horus.

"Father, do you have any questions?"

As if he noticed something, Horus stopped and turned to look at Su Heng with a faint look.

After fusing the three colonial costumes, the fourth template was larger than Horus, with a torrent of spiritual energy escaping and shimmering.

"I am listening."

Su Heng lowered his head, with majesty in his eyes, "Keep talking."

When nothing came, Horus felt a cold feeling coming from the depths of his soul.

He did not dare to be careless, continued to move forward, and then spoke:

"Psychics have existed since ancient times, and some of them even possess powers that are almost godlike in the eyes of mortals.

Some of them can observe what is destined to happen in the future through celestial phenomena, while others can spy on other people's thoughts, and some psychics can survive for hundreds or thousands of years with their powerful soul energy. "

"Four hundred years ago, when human science and technology reached its peak, it was even enough to conquer the universe and the stars. In human society, those inhumanly powerful psykers predicted that the cruel doomsday was coming."

"In order to help mankind survive this catastrophe, those psychics as powerful as ghosts and gods did not hesitate to sacrifice themselves."

At this point, Horus's voice became louder.

"They took dead iron from Pluto, the darkest and coldest planet in the galaxy, and repeatedly forged it in the sun to make it active. Then they injected their huge spiritual energy into it, combined with the extraordinary technology that had developed to its peak at that time, a The ultimate life form capable of infinite growth was born.”

"That life form is me."

A little silence.

Su Heng asked. Although he was questioning, his tone was very firm.

"That's right."

Horus nodded.

Unknowingly, the two of them had arrived at the church hall.

At this time, the lingering clouds in the sky dissipated a little, and the cold moonlight fell on the marble sculpture, and every feather of the angel was shrouded in red light.

Horus saw the huge swollen body of the Kraken and praised, "As expected of our father, he can show such terrifying power even after he has just woken up."

The Kraken's head was completely smashed, and the splattered blood gathered into a small lake.

There is a fishy smell in the air.

"After the birth of this super life form, scientists in the Golden Age used it as a template to create other mechanical warriors."

Horus continued,

"These mechanical warriors were later called Athas monks. The birth of each Athas monk requires at least one gifted psyker to give up everything."

"But ultimately, we failed."

Su Heng sighed.

It's hard to imagine how terrifying the enemies that humans encountered at that time were.

Even entering the cosmic sky, the golden age of colonial river systems has become history, and only some scattered records can be seen in certain ruins.

"Failure is not the end."

Horus's tall body was shrouded in shadow, "And not everyone fails..."

"What does it mean?"

Su Heng frowned, sensing that something seemed a little off in Horus' tone.

"hehe."

Horus laughed, his voice echoing under the red moon, "It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of something and felt a little emotional."

"Yeah."

Su Heng asked no more questions, and Horus had already told everything he knew.

The two continued to move forward.

They entered another dark passage.

At the end of the passage is a wide hall. The entire hall is entirely made of steel, and the beautiful glazed dome is still intact. There are six tall battle sculptures on the left and right sides.

Horus came to the end of the hall, his footsteps empty.

Click!

He opened the mechanism on the wall and entered the password fluently.

Then, the rumbling sound from the wall broke the silence in the room. Smoke and dust billowed, the ground shook, and the dark steel wall slowly descended.

Another empty hall appeared in Su Heng's field of vision.

This hall, like all the surrounding buildings, is different.

The color is white and soft. On the pillar in the middle of the hall, six freezers are neatly arranged in a ring.

It's different from Horus's freezer.

These white freezer compartments have an opaque surface. Su Heng could not tell whether there was Brother Atas sleeping inside.

"Father."

Horus's face was shrouded in shadow, and he said lightly, "Your loyal heirs are waiting for your call."

"Is that all?"

Su Heng asked, his tone a bit regretful.

"In the last war, we suffered heavy losses, and most of the Attas monks were killed. The remaining brothers also fell into a long sleep, and their souls dissipated and returned to the underworld."

"Three hundred years have passed, and although the veterans have withered, they still have the glory of the old era."

"Go ahead and wake them up."

Horus's voice was bewitching, "They are the tip of your spear and your sword, and they can conquer the entire old world for you."

"Um."

Su Heng nodded, and there seemed to be some hesitation in his flashing red pupils.

But, in the end.

He still made up his mind and strode into it.

Looking at the tall back of the fourth template, walking into the secret room step by step, Horus had a mocking smile on his face.

"The last hope is over!"

he said softly.

Click!

He pressed the switch hard.

Amidst the roar, the huge iron door fell from the sky, completely locking the secret room in less than a second.

Boom!

A dull explosion came from the room.

The whole building was shaking from side to side, and the broken glass mixed with the light of the red moon fell from the sky like raindrops.

Horus opened his hands, bathed in red light.

His expression was intoxicated.

But soon, his expression hardened.

"really."

Su Heng came from around the corner, and the light blue spiritual energy turned into waves and wrapped around his body. The dark steel expanded, and dark red heat shone on its surface.

He had already entered a fighting state, looking for Shuyuan www.zhaoｓhuyuａan.com and looked at Horus with pity in his eyes.

"Although I don't know why you chose to betray humanity." He raised the spike rifle and pointed the dark muzzle at Horus, "But there is only one fate for traitors, and that is - death!"

Boom!

Tongues of fire spit out.

Horus was stunned at first, wondering why Su Heng had already stepped into the portal just now, but now he appeared in front of him out of thin air.

But he was an experienced warrior, and his body's subconscious reactions were faster than his own thoughts.

The moment Su Heng pulled the trigger.

He had already turned his body sideways, took off the giant sword from behind, and held it in front of him.

Bang!

A tinkling sound came from Horus, and sparks exploded, flickering in the dark hall.

It was extremely dark all around, and the thick darkness was like ink.

But both were warriors made of steel, with roaring psychic powers and perceptions beyond mortal imagination.

Horus rolled over and rushed towards Su Heng.

Then bend your knees and sprint.

boom!

Behind him, the scorching spiritual energy turned into flames.

The huge impact drove his body forward, and the violently torn air flow formed a cone-shaped cloud ring.

Boom! ! !

Huge power penetrates the body, the surrounding temperature rises, and the air is slightly distorted.

The power of this sword seemed to be able to level a mountain, but unfortunately, the opponent he hit was still a phantom of nothingness.

The thick floor first twisted and cracked, and then instantly shattered under the huge force.

Horus's expression suddenly changed.

The slash that he mobilized with all his strength fell into the air at this moment, and the huge rebound force caused his wrist to flash with dazzling sparks.

Before he had time to react, he felt the cold barrel of the gun hitting the back of his head.
