The King's Game

After a comfortable night’s sleep and waking up, Gu Huai slowly opened his eyes a crack first. Then he sat up in bed and stretched himself slightly.

“Du.”

A monotonous voice sounded nearby, then Gu Huai saw a mechanical creature pushing a small dining cart close to the bed. Behind it was a mechanical creature carrying hot water and towels.

It was an N2-type robot. Compared to the N1-type robots with humanoid appearances, the mechanical creatures sent to guard the palace had more in common with the old type robots.

It also had electronic eyes with sky blue light, and its body structure was relatively similar. However, the mechanical creatures of N2 and N3 models could freely use form conversion, so could convert into more suitable forms according to the situation, and their destructive ability was completely better than that of the old robots.

Because the voices of the two were the same, Gu Huai did not expect to see such a scene when he heard the voice, so he paused for a moment.

The small dining cart had been pushed to the bed. A mechanical creature carrying a pure white porcelain basin showed its hand to the young man sitting on the bed and then did not move.

Clean white porcelain basin filled with warm water, the edge of which was draped with a clean new towel.

Gu Huai picked up the towel first, and then he looked up at the cold mechanical creature that was carrying the porcelain basin to him, and blinked involuntarily.

Wet the towel with warm water and then wipe his face. Watching the youth finish this series of actions. Several humanoid machines gathered at the entrance of the room to look inside nodded. It seemed that they did not do anything wrong.

“It is very difficult to raise a human. The environment of this palace is no problem, but other living conditions still need to be considered. There are still four days to go before the Full Moon Festival. In order not to get anything wrong, we must pay more attention to this matter.” Ansel turned his head and said this to his good friend after observing the scene inside.

Serge listened to the other’s words and quickly nodded his head with approval.

The normal dietary habit of a human was to have three meals a day. If he didn’t eat for a long time, his mobility would decline or he could even die due to hunger. If they looked at human consumption as a supplementary energy source, this frequency was really quite frequent.

In addition to the three basic needs of food, clothing, and shelter, human beings also needed a higher quality of life in order to easily maintain a good mood.

The mood of human beings would affect their health. It was for this reason that it was necessary for them to provide him with good living conditions.

Several humanoid machines crouched at the door of the room, but Gu Huai, who had just cleaned his face with a towel, did not notice this. His attention was still on several mechanical creatures around him.

When the young man wiped his cheek and put the towel back into the basin, the mechanical creature carrying the porcelain basin made a new action. It received the porcelain basin and put it aside. At the same time, another mechanical creature standing beside the small dining cart picked up a cup of milk from the dining cart and handed it directly to the youth.

Guarding the youth was an order given to them by their superior. The tasks assigned by their superiors must be completed without any slack, so they needed to attend to every detail well.

During the guarding period, ensuring the survival of the target was also one of the details of the mission. These N2 robots thought so.

“I prefer sweet, can you change it to sweet milk tomorrow?” Gu Huai took the cup of milk from the round clamp used by the mechanical creatures to pick up the goods. After taking a sip, Gu Huai raised his head to ask the mechanical creatures who were looking at him.

It seemed that they didn’t expect the youth to talk to them. Although he couldn’t make out any expression on its face, this mechanical creature did look dull. The blue light on the electronic eye flashed quickly. Then it slowly made a monotonous voice, “Du.”

“And, um... I want to eat black forest cake tomorrow. Is there a cake-making robot in this city?” Gu Huai touched his chin as he said this sentence, eyes and the mechanical creatures continue to look at each other.

“Du.” The same tone sounded again soon.

Black forest? Cake...?

These two unfamiliar nouns made the mechanical creatures who agreed to the youth’s request start to secretly search their own databases, but at this time, there was a very serious problem. There was a lack of data analysis of these two nouns in its database, so it seemed that some new data needed to be imported.

However, sweet milk didn’t have to wait until tomorrow. After a monotonous sound, the mechanical creature looked down at the small dining cart it just pushed. In less than a second, it pushed the small dining cart out of the room along the original route.

The cold and tall body of the mechanical creature formed a sharp contrast with the small dining cart in front of it. Let alone that the former was still pushing with great care. If this scene fell into the eyes of various races outside the royal city, they would probably feel very stunned.

The mechanical creature that pushed the small dining cart away soon returned to the youth’s room with a cup of milk and walked to the bed. It moved smoothly to take the cup of milk in the youth’s hand and replaced it with a new one.

Sweet. Gu Huai took a sip of his glass, looked up to smile at the cold mechanical creature who had changed milk for him.

This expression on human beings generally represented happiness. The mechanical creatures standing by silently thought about this, watching the youth finish eating with great dedication.

“System system, what is the clearance value now?” Without looking at the data panel, Gu Huai directly asked his system.

“28%.” Looking on at the current situation, the system responded in a low voice.

It was 5% when successfully leaving the polar ice cap, 13% when they reached Ogg City to persuade the parliament, and 28% when saving the Elves’ Tree of Life. After the calculation, Gu Huai’s goal was very clear from before. He wanted to prevent other races... or to prevent the world from being destroyed.

Gu Huai did not find achieving this goal difficult now. As long as the mechanical creatures in the city were not ruthless enough to kill him, the destruction was doomed.

The companions entered the room and did not come out for a long time. After the other N2 robots guarding the outside of the palace stood guard for a while, one of them led the way to the room.

They had to go in to see if their comrades had any accident inside. Using this reason, a group of N2 robots originally stationed outside the palace squeezed into the room.

“Du, du ...” The monotonous voices of the mechanical creatures echoed in the room. The companions had nothing wrong. The N2 robots who squeezed into the room naturally moved their eyes to the object they guarded.

The young man was sitting on the arm of an R-type robot. At this time, near the semi-circular window, he looked like he was looking at the scenery.

Carrying the youth with their bodies... If the youth made this request to them, they could also accept it as part of the task assigned by their superior.

The more than a dozen old robots around the youth all seemed to be very close to the youth. The N-type robots entering the palace discovered this. For example, the youth would rub his cheeks against these old robots.

These old models of robots were all wearing patches with different colors from the whole, which seemed to have been deliberately left behind.

After looking at the patches that were obviously manually applied, an N-type robot took out a spare part made of rare metal and a crystal of extremely pure energy stored before it. These two things were the reward items that this N-type robot received after successfully completing a task before, and it had never been willing to use them.

“Du...” Close to the old robot on the end of the room, the N-shaped robot reaches out to deliver its storage to the other side, and wanted to exchange the patch on the other side.

But the T-shaped robot that received the request soon “tooted” and shook its head. It didn’t want to exchange. It looked down at the patch on its body, and then looked back at the youth sitting on the arm of its companion.

In the vicinity of the Royal Palace treasure house, Serge asked his men to take some treasures he had selected from the treasure house to the palace where the youth lived, while thinking about a problem.

It was four days before the full moon festival. It seemed that they had to decorate the Royal City.... It was said that this was a grand festival, but the commander didn’t give them any instructions. Did it mean that they should do it?

“The Full Moon Festival is an important festival. We need to make the city more festive, which should be a good thing for people living in the city.”

“It’s a virtue to be lenient to the captives. This can be done. I think it can be done in this way.”

The assistant officer was the second in command of the Royal City, second only to Noah, who was the leader of all the humanoid machines present.

“Since you say so, sir, of course, your subordinates will have no problem.” At this time, all the humanoid machines on the scene bowed their heads quietly, showing a good attitude of approval and obedience.

“But if you want to change the whole Royal City, won’t it be better to ask the commander first? After all, if you want to move the whole Royal City, you need to arrange the astrological platform... ” Ansel was hesitant about this. The astrological station was the commander’s favorite place. They all knew that.

It seemed that it was better to ask for instructions in advance, in case the commander was not willing....

“Well, first of all, I won’t go this time.” Serge quickly waved his hand. “I’ve asked the commander twice,” This kind of thing didn’t need to be asked by him. “The third time, I will be dead.”

“I’ll go. The commander should be watching the flowers on the astrological platform now.” Ansel took up the conversation. This was the question he asked. He would ask for instructions himself.

The astrological station was very high. It would take a while to walk up the stairs. Ansel would teleport directly.

“Commander, I have something to ask you.” Just after teleporting, Ansel found that his commander was not watching the eternal flower as usual, but looking at a water mirror.

However, the magic water mirror was dissipated at the moment of his arrival, and he came into contact with his commander’s sight. Ansel lowered his head and said: “After some discussion, the subordinates thought it necessary to re-arrange the royal city for a good Full Moon Festival. At that time, the astrological platform, the most prominent building of the Imperial Palace, will also need to be changed. May I ask if you permit it? “

The figure standing in front slightly moved his eyebrows and eyes. There was no mood fluctuation in the beautiful pale golden pupils. However, the owner of these eyes did not let Ansel bear its gold gaze for long, and quickly responded without expression.

“Hn.” Noah’s single note was as cold as his eyes, and his voice was calm as a wave.

Yes.

But Ansel didn’t express his joy. Before leaving the astrological platform, he suddenly thought of asking, “Commander, what were you looking at with a water mirror?”

Although only for a moment, Ansel felt that his commander had been watching the mirror image quite carefully. He didn’t know if something important had happened....

“Ethnic trends.” The voice of the human-shaped weapon with light golden eyes was very cold. Its beautiful face was pure and cold. “The elves began to repair the holy land.”

He was worthy of being his commander. He always controls the situation of the war. After thinking about it in his mind, Ansel quickly went on: “Before we go to the army next time, the Elves will not be able to completely repair the defense devices in the territory. Even if the holy land is repaired, it will not be difficult for us to destroy again. Commander, you can rest assured.”

The failure of the Serge’s mission was only a special case, which would not happen again.

After saying this and being allowed to leave, Ansel left the astrological station. It was not a small project to arrange the whole royal city. He had to mobilize his team and start work now.

However, when there was no one on the astrological platform, the human shaped robot on the platform brought out the small water mirror again.

Gazing at the water mirror. Noah’s eyes were still cold and his face was still expressionless, but he had not removed his gaze from the water mirror.

In the water mirror, clearly visible was the figure of a human youth.
