"His brother? Where is he?"

Sun Kai looked towards the Ice Valley behind them: "He died down there on the last day while covering for us. Did you see the tear on the nano ceramic plate visor of the No.1 Machine’s head? His brother, Chen Lie, got ripped out by an Abnormal Body in one bite. In the end, Chen Wei was the one driving this mecha, covering the rest of us."

After saying this, he turned to Lin Xian with a meaningful look and said, "He’s got a temper like that, never showing a good face to anyone, especially hostile towards superpower users. I heard that after Apocalypse Day, his family was massacred by a rogue superpower user’s convoy, and now his brother’s gone too. On top of that, he’s suffered mental trauma after linking to the neuro-link system of the No.1 Machine by himself. So don’t take it to heart; you risked your lives to assist, yet he behaved that way... I’m apologizing on his behalf."

Lin Xian was silent for a moment upon hearing this, then sighed and said, "No need for apologies, Lieutenant Sun. Indeed, it seems we haven’t been much help. It looks like we’ll need to find another way out."

"Piloting a mecha through a neuro-link all by oneself?!" KIKI was very surprised upon hearing this, "And he didn’t die?!"

"He’s got a big life, I suppose..." Sun Kai nodded and said.

KIKI said to Sun Kai, "Right, didn’t you say Captain Yu and his team had a breakout plan? What is it? Surely we’re not all just waiting for Xilan City’s rescue?"

Shi Deyuan spoke up at this moment, "It seems they plan to have this mecha emit some signal to lure the monsters, then have it self-destruct to see if it can take down that Black Insect or heavily injure it, giving us a chance to escape. I don’t know the details, but they had a rough idea before you arrived."

"Quantum dot nanoclusters," Sun Kai said. "This is an experimental device initially on the No.1 Machine, meant to lure monsters. It’s said that these emitted nanoparticles can form an entangled state with the ’maternal quantum well’ in the monster’s lair or something. It’s too complex for me to understand."

Lin Xian looked at him and thought to himself: You’re explaining the principle so convolutedly, and you say you don’t understand?

"But there’s another plan," Sun Kai continued without stopping. "It was proposed by Chen Wei. Both he and his brother were Level 5 pilot coefficient drivers, and now that his brother is dead, there’s still a Level 3 pilot coefficient person in the team. Chen Wei wants to take this person and try to forcibly activate the No.1 Machine to pave a way for all of us."

"As for the rescue... in such a situation where communication is cut off and you can’t even tell direction in this blizzard, even if the flying superpower user risks going out, they might not reach Xilan City, so it can only be a backup plan. The key still lies in our proactive escape."

Lin Xian nodded upon hearing this, "Just hoping for rescue is clearly not enough. With so many Abnormal Bodies gathered in this canyon, even if there’s a rescue, it won’t be easy."

However, KIKI caught onto a key piece of information; she looked at Sun Kai, "Activate the mecha? You mean, this mecha can still be activated?!"

Sun Kai immediately felt a bit awkward after he finished, "I’m not sure about the technical issues of this mecha, but since they can propose such a plan, maybe it can...perhaps."

After speaking, he immediately said to Shi Deyuan and Lin Xian, "You guys talk first, I’ll go report on the exploration situation."

After that, he departed.

"My goodness, this thing can be activated?!" Shi Deyuan watched Sun Kai’s reaction with an enlightened expression, immediately turning his head to look at the gigantic steel giant.

"It shouldn’t be that simple," Lin Xian said at this time, "If it were truly that easy, then the primary plan would definitely be this, and not a self-destructing mecha."

Shi Deyuan opened his mouth upon hearing this and, after a moment, let out a long sigh, looking at the snowstorm above, saying,

"What a mess, I originally thought that even if Dragon Mountain No.1 made it to Xilan City, even if I died here, it wouldn’t be that bad. Now, everyone’s still stuck here. Damn it, if I had known, I wouldn’t have come!"

Lin Xian looked at him, "You would have come no matter what. You’re not someone who can become cold-blooded and selfish in this life."

"Exactly," KIKI also smiled and said, "Back at Yu Bei Airport, when that Federation guy Taylor was about to shoot the survivors, you stepped up immediately without knowing the situation. Brother Shi, you have to admit, you are a good person."

"Good person..."

Shi Deyuan pouted somewhat reluctantly upon hearing this, "Bad timing, I’m responsible for so many lives, what should I do?"

"There are other ways, Brother Shi. I’ll go with KIKI to take a look at that mecha first."

"Alright." Shi Deyuan turned around and said, "You guys go ahead, I’ll check the frontline and let’s discuss before it gets dark."

"Hmm."

After Lin Xian finished speaking, he immediately took KIKI and headed towards the direction of the massive mecha.

At the moment, the soldiers of the interstellar army and the busy technicians around them said nothing, after all, everyone was in the same boat, and each of the other survivors were curious too, going to see and even touch the mecha. Lin Xian wasn’t the only one doing this, so no one stopped them.

"The closer we get, the bigger it feels."

Standing in front of the arm of the No.1 Machine, KIKI reached out and used her telekinesis to prop up a large barrier, shielding them from the wind and snow, allowing the two to clearly observe the industrial beauty of the metal lines on the mechanical arm.

"Humanity can create weapons of this level, such civilization, how can we lose to these beasts of darkness..." Lin Xian reached out to touch the cold finger guard armor plate, silently murmuring.

"The allure of machinery, mesmerizing indeed."
