[Nine-Rank Sorcerer II] Chapter 32

Chapter Three: Attack

"My God, is this the capital of the Hidden God Empire?"

When everyone's eyes, blurred by the spatial teleportation, could see clearly again, they were all

stunned by the vast, seemingly endless complex of buildings.

Looking around, tens of thousands of towering towers stood in every direction, each

at least tens of thousands of meters high, and these towers were spaced tens of kilometers apart.

Standing amidst this forest of towers, they felt as tiny as ants in a forest!

The surfaces of the towers were painted with all sorts of strange patterns—some were brightly colored plants, others were

ferocious beasts with mottled fur. Adjacent towers were connected by dozens of differently colored light bands, but

there were no windows or doors visible on the tower surfaces.

"This place is strange. I can't sense any life." Katarina, possessing Heavenly Rank strength

and far superior senses, keenly noticed that the surrounding ground was completely barren, devoid of any vegetation, and

without a trace of even a mosquito.

"This place is indeed very strange. I feel like some strange energy is trying to invade my body!"

Jiang Shuihan could manipulate lustful energy and was also very sensitive to other types of energy.

"The reason why the Hidden God Empire perished is still an unsolved mystery, but

I believe it was a very terrifying power. It's not surprising that it could cause the cessation of life here. What

worries me more is that that terrifying power is still in effect. We might all

die !"

After saying this, Priest Jialan took out an alchemical item from his mount's pouch and

began to . After a long pause, she said uncertainly, "The radiation energy

is about three hundred times higher than normal. Although it's not suitable for ordinary people to live in, as long as we can ensure that

this invade our internal organs, it won't cause serious damage to our bodies."

"I think we shouldn't stay here too long. Do you have a specific action plan? Looking at

all these towers around us, if we explore them one by one, it might take decades."

Jiang Shuihan realized at this moment that he had underestimated the terror of the ancient alchemists. Each

tower was probably the residence and laboratory of an alchemist. If the legendary Tower of Babel was also hidden

among these countless towers, it would be a real headache.

"Or should we start exploring from the nearest tower? Anyway, any tower might contain

unimaginable treasures." Priestess Jialan's face was also blank. Over the long years, many of the ancient texts

left had been lost, and she knew very little about this ancient capital.

"But how can we enter these towers?" Katarina's beautiful eyes revealed awe for the

ancient inhabitants. She had realized that her proud

personal strength was utterly useless against the powerful ancient alchemical civilization.

"That depends on our luck. According to ancient records, some of the AI in the sorcerer's towers

lose their defensive capabilities when their masters are away for extended periods." Priest Garan pondered for a moment, then pointed to a blue

tower ahead and said, "If you don't object, let's start our exploration from this one!"

This was clearly directed at Jiang Shuihan, as the others would certainly not object to Priest Garan's suggestion.

"Before coming here, I promised to work with you. I'm a man of my word,"

Jiang Shuihan shrugged. "As long as you don't do anything foolish and provoke those violent AIs, I won't just

abandon you and run away."

Priestess Jialan scoffed disdainfully, "Don't worry, this is the capital of an ancient empire. The ancient

people weren't ignorant fools; they wouldn't let AIs control those lethal weapons."

Jiang Shuihan chuckled, "It's still best to be careful. Even if we only trigger

defensive , we'll only have to spend the rest of our lives in prison."

Priestess Jialan rolled her eyes at Jiang Shuihan, annoyed. "Do I need you to remind me of this?

Or should I warn you, never underestimate a woman's wisdom, or you'll definitely regret it!"

Several hundred meters away from the tower, Priestess Jialan had the others stop and went

to the foot of the tower alone to communicate with the AI stationed inside.

Unfortunately, Priestess Jialan was clearly not as lucky as Jiang Shuihan. The tower's AI not only functioned normally,

but also identified her as an "artificial being" who had escaped from the laboratory.

"Please temporarily shut down your defense system. After searching your AI chip number, you will be

sent back to your original owner!"

A three-meter-tall artificial girl flew out of the blue tower. She had a beautiful and dignified face and

a fit and alluring figure. She wore a magnificent feathered crown on her head, had a pair of huge fiery red wings on her back, and

held She looked like an angel descending from heaven.

Her eyes were fixed on Priestess Garan, her bright pupils flashing with a ghostly blue light. At the same time,

the AI within Priestess Garan warned its master: "Warning! Scanning

rays containing weak radioactive energy detected. Energy shield activated to block them!"

Priestess Garan frowned, helplessly explaining her origins to the artificial girl before her: "Don't waste your

time. My identity is different from yours. I am a real human! By the way, according to the laws of artificial beings, you

cannot harm humans!"

The artificial girl operated entirely on her internal AI, and her thought process was not as flexible as a human's.

She worked rigidly according to a set procedure: "Beep! No identification chip detected. Regardless of your species

, you do not enjoy the rights of an Imperial citizen!

Beep! According to the laws of artificial beings, if an unfamiliar creature is detected, an attempt can be made to capture it without endangering the master's safety

!

Beep! According to Imperial law, if you are captured by me, my master, the sorceress Maureen, will have

priority !"

After announcing the rights granted to her master, the artificial girl launched an attack without hesitation!

However, just as Priest Garan had just analyzed, the use of mass killings was strictly prohibited in the capital cities of ancient empires.

The artificial girl was merely a mid-level alchemist, and the one she used to guard her

door wasn't a powerful warrior; she only knew how to use the alchemical artifacts her master had given her to deal with Priestess Garan.

The weapon-like object in the artificial girl's hand fired a net of light, which instantly expanded to several meters in

diameter , like a giant fishing net falling from the sky, suddenly covering Priestess Garan.

In a sense, this wasn't really a weapon; in the ancient empire, it was more often used to capture stray pets on the streets.

"Swift Wind, transform into your first combat form!"

Priestess Garan still had a way to deal with this low-level alchemical artifact. With a soft

shout , her mechanical mount, "Swift Wind," suddenly reared up, its forelegs extending and transforming into two gleaming

light blades, instantly cleaving the net of light above in two!

"Beep! Target identified as a Level 2 bio-mechanical combat beast, requesting support from the defense center!"

The artificial girl's dual arrays flashed red, indicating "alert," and immediately

sent a distress message to the AI in the tower.

"Activate the cation plasma cannon and destroy her!"

Priestess Jialan raised her arm, pointing at the artificial girl floating in mid-air, and issued the destruction order without hesitation.

"Roar!"

It turned out that Gale was a half-mechanical, half-biological combat monster. With a roar, its skin

suddenly split open, revealing a gleaming silver miniature energy cannon hidden within its body.

"Boom!"

A blinding white light suddenly burst from the muzzle, firing a straight beam of light as thick as a bowl. The terrifying

beam possessed immeasurable intense heat, instantly piercing through the artificial girl's body.

"Beep! My body is damaged! I request immediate repair!" The artificial girl looked down at the large hole burned into

her chest , let out a loud scream, and fled towards the tower.

"Activate Illusion Disguise Mode!"

Priestess Garan, however, showed no joy at the victory. Almost

simultaneously issued a new order to Gale.

As it turned out, Priestess Garan's judgment was correct. Just as she reunited with Jiang Shuihan's group, countless circular windows lit up on the surface

of the blue tower,

from which at least several hundred artificial girls with red wings on their backs flew out.

They were clearly a private army protecting the tower, clad in red alloy armor, and wielding

various alchemical artifacts that appeared to be lethal weapons.

"This is the territory of the sorceress Maureen. Any intruder will be punished by law!"

These artificial girls circled the tower at high speed, loudly proclaiming the rights of the tower's owner, while carefully

searching the ground for suspicious targets, ready to attack any hidden ones at any moment.

"Ignore them. They're just the private guards of this tower's owner, and their area of activity is limited to

this small territory. They pose no threat to us. We can try our luck at another tower."

High Priestess Jialan was quite confident in Gale's illusionary disguise abilities. She glanced at Jiang Shuihan, her eyes

filled with pride. She felt she had every right to be proud of protecting everyone's safe evacuation under these circumstances.

Next, she probably assumed that after this dangerous encounter, Jiang Shuihan would no longer have

the idea of acting on his own, so she didn't ask for his opinion again and chose a tower with strange plants painted on its surface

as her new target.

"Welcome to Dorgen's Workshop. Mr. Dorgen was a great alchemist in his lifetime..."

It was hard to say whether everyone's luck was good or bad. The owner of this tower had

died , and Mr. Dorgen had no descendants to inherit his business and wealth. Therefore, his former residence and

laboratory were converted into a private memorial hall, open to the public.

Although they could enter the tower without hindrance, it was obvious that such a place

wouldn't hold anything of value. Aside from portraits of the Dorgon sorcerer and extensive biographical

information , the seemingly tempting alchemical artifacts were merely shiny models, utterly devoid of any

function.

However, for the priestess Galan and Jiang Shuihan, who could read ancient texts, this was an

excellent place to gather intelligence. Seemingly nonchalant, they were actually using their AI to silently record

every passage they encountered.

The end of the memorial hall offered another surprise: an AI

center . Simply sit in a metal chair, place a round crystal hat on their head, and they could

enter a virtual world constructed by the AI, engaging in face-to-face conversation with an AI resembling the Dorgon sorcerer!

"Miss Galan, please go first."

Everyone knew this was a rare opportunity to gather information, but Jiang Shuihan still very gentlemanly allowed the priestess

Galan to have the chance to interact with the AI first.

As for Katarina and the nine paladins, unable to understand the language of the Hidden Empire, they could only find

a place to sit and wait, their only concern being to keep Jiang Shuihan within their sight.

Jiang Shuihan was almost certain that if it weren't for the constant, clandestine intervention of Priest Jialan, that fool Katarina

and her paladin subordinates would have already started a fight with him.

Yes, since entering this ancient ruin, they had relied on Priest Jialan's protection, and their once-

proud martial prowess seemed completely useless. Perhaps only by eliminating Jiang Shuihan, this heretic, could they demonstrate their

worth!

Jiang Shuihan automatically kept his distance from these unfriendly fellows because he also had something he needed to verify. Under

the paladins' watchful eyes, he simply used the "toilet escape" technique to gain a

moment and quietly entered the Bound Beauty Treasure Chest.

"Phoenix Princess, I have some information to share with you. I hope you can give me

some ."

An artificial girl like Phoenix Princess, who has a perfect human body, is essentially an intelligent

life form that thinks through an AI. She has emotions due to an experimental accident and can feel joy and fear like an ordinary girl.

However, she also has some differences from ordinary girls. For example, replenishing her database with information is like giving

a human girl beautiful clothes, which can earn her extra favorability.

"Master, what kind of information is it?"

Huang Ji's bright eyes shone with joy. She thoroughly enjoyed chatting with her master in private.

Even if Jiang Shuihan was just talking about the weather, her AI would feel an overwhelming sense of happiness.

"It's about the AIs in the ancient ruins."

Since Jiang Shuihan entered the ruins, he had noticed something interesting:

none of the AIs he encountered possessed the ability for complex thinking. They seemed to be rigidly executing their master's

commands according to pre-set programs.

These AIs didn't even realize that their masters were dead, yet they continued to complete

the tasks assigned by their masters day after day, maintaining the normal operation of cities.

"Beep, authorized by Master, neutrino data receiving port activated, starting to receive data..."

"Beep, all data received... data analysis initiated... all work completed... total time

0.03 seconds!"

A faint blue light flashed in the depths of Huang Ji's eyes. The efficiency of these ultra-fast AIs was beyond the

imagination of .

"Reporting to the Master, your judgment is correct. The intelligence level of the AI in the ruins is far inferior to that of Huang Ji

's AI. If we consider Huang Ji's AI to be one hundred, their intelligence level is probably only between four and six

."

Huang Ji knew that humans were accustomed to using numbers to make comparisons, so she told her master in a very proud tone that

she was a very excellent intelligent life form, far superior to the AI in the ruins.

"Is it just a difference in intelligence level? If you lose your current body, can you transfer your soul to another body like a

soul , using those AIs as new intelligent carriers, while

retaining your current memories and intelligence?"

Jiang Shuihan also had a considerable understanding of AIs. He knew that although Huang Ji was stronger than Selena, she

could not exist in the form of light and shadow like Selena, and had to rely on an AI as a host to survive.

"The AI in Huang Ji's body and the AI in the ruins are based on the same architecture. Huang Ji

can achieve the requirements mentioned by the patriarch by reducing her own computing frequency."

Huang Ji was silent for a moment before giving an affirmative answer. Apart from being slightly inferior in performance, the AI in the ruins

was almost identical to the AI in Huang Ji's body.

"Oh, if my hypothesis is correct, then I roughly understand what happened." "

In the distant past, when the apocalypse occurred, some of the ancient inhabitants escaped to the Western Continent using teleportation

technology . They established several shelters, hoping to return home after the catastrophe."

"The Underground City was one such shelter, which explains why we found the Platinum

Trial Token there; it was originally a key left by the inhabitants to return home."

"However, because the catastrophe struck so suddenly, the power of the existing ruling class collapsed.

To vie for leadership of the new world, war likely broke out after the apocalypse."

"Phoenix Princess, you were probably created as an artificial general during that period, representing the ancient empire's most advanced

artificial human creation technology. The inhabitants of the Underground City hoped you could lead an army to seize control of the new world for them!"

"However, whether the war ended in mutual destruction or the apocalypse spread to the Western

Continent, the inhabitants of the Underground City abandoned their final test on you, leaving you imprisoned in a simple mixing trough within the Underground City

."

"I believe there must be factories manufacturing artificial soldiers in this ancient imperial capital. If you can

find that place, you will no longer be a general without troops, but will possess a powerful army!"

The ancient alchemist installed a powerful AI on Huang Ji, not to use her as a bed warmer, but in

the bloody battlefield where she could truly unleash her talents.

Huang Ji's lips unconsciously curled upwards, her beautiful eyes revealing an uncontrollable excitement and

longing: "Yes, Huang Ji wants to fight for the patriarch, Huang Ji hopes to command an army!"

"Then, once I obtain the map of the ancient capital, you and Selena will go to the artificial soldier factory and

build your most powerful army there!"

What was Jiang Shuihan most eager to obtain in the ruins? It was the artificial

army . To make tens of thousands of alchemists submit to the rule of the superiors and to stand up to the gods of the heavens,

the armies of the ancient empires and the weapons they wield must be extremely powerful. As long as Jiang Shuihan can obtain an artificial

army , no force will be able to become his opponent!
