Seeing Mister Yi and Mister Huo kick the boulder into pieces, as well as the drones in the sky approaching the open cave entrance, Alexander and the guards were almost scared senseless!
“Hurry up and block the entrance! Hurry up!” Alexander shouted in desperation.
The guards tried to put together the stone fragments in a flurry, but the boulder had already been broken into irregular egg sized pieces under Huo Li and Xiao Yi’s violent move. How could they still piece it together?! The female leader Claire and her anti machine resistance team members took this opportunity to break free from the guard team’s control and rush out of the cave!
The moment the black-haired youth stepped out of the cave, he took out the 3400 kilograms of ‘smart cabbage black root systems’ from his space. The big lump of black strands slammed onto the ground and quickly spread towards the surroundings. At this moment, more than 300 injured soldiers, anti machine resistance team members, the Claire siblings, Huo Li and Xiao Yi, as well as a field of lush green cabbages that had just been grown were waiting for the two helicopters to arrive.
“Even if we go down, we still need to shoot down those two unmanned recon aircrafts. We must not let them return to the machine headquarters and expose the location of the entire valley base!” The female leader Claire shouted towards the surrounding anti machine resistance team members. Her brother also mobilised the injured soldiers of his death squad with the same rousing speech!
“Crazy! They’re all crazy! Relying on a few broken hand guns and rifles to fight against the drones?” Alexander stared in disbelief and muttered to himself as he watched the situation outside. Just when he walked to flee into the valley, a shadow suddenly arrived by his side, grabbed him by the collar and carried him out! He was then thrown beside the cabbage field. Just when Alexander was about to crawl back up, he felt a huge force coming from behind him! Bang! He was trampled onto the ground again.
The black-haired youth raised his leg and stepped on Alexander’s back. He couldn’t break free no matter how much he struggled. Xiao Yi coldly said:
“Mister Alexander, you personally started the show, so even if you’re lying down, you should also finish watching it, isn’t that right?”
Then, the black-haired youth kept his foot on Alexander and turned to Huo Li: “I’ve done my part. It’s up to you now.”
Huo Li gave the youth a confident smile and nodded.
At this moment, the two helicopters were only a few hundred meters away from everyone. Some of the resistance team members and injured soldiers who couldn’t keep their calm had already raised their guns towards the sky and opened fire at the armed helicopters.
“Don’t shoot now! Wait for them to get closer! Don’t waste bullets!” The Claire siblings commanded at the same time.
The gunshots gradually ceased. Nearly 1000 people present were holding their breath as they waited for the helicopters to approach. Even if they will be met with a crazy rain of machine gunfire, they must make a final stand even if they’ll lose their lives!
Even the guards, women and children within the cave watching the situation outside hesitated on whether or not to flee for their lives or raise their guns to assist them in defending their homeland.
“Everyone, listen to my orders. Open fire when the drones come within 200 metres of us!” Mister Claire shouted to everyone as he watched the helicopters come closer and closer:
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
“Attention everyone! Ready! Uh……”

“Stay alert!” Mister Claire was also stunned by the helicopters’ strange behaviour! Obviously, spraying them with machine gunfire from a high altitude was the best way to wipe them out!
Unable to comprehend the situation, Claire simply issued an order for everyone to stay on guard.
They saw the cabin doors of the two helicopters open at the same time and two groups of mechanical soldiers filed out in a line. Within everyone’s astonished gaze, the mechanical soldiers lined up in two rows facing the mountain like soldiers undergoing an inspection. Then, they took down the submachine guns, hand guns and grenades from their bodies and placed them in front of their feet.
The movements of the 20 mechanical soldiers were neat and uniform. As they performed every action like they were following steps of a dance, the mouths of the survivors grew bigger and bigger! Finally, the 20 mechanical soldiers with nothing else on their bodies put their hands behind their heads and took 2 steps back. Then, they bent their knees and squatted on the ground like prisoners.
In the silence of nearly 1000 people on the mountain, a small cabbage at the very front of the cabbage field crawled out of the soil and commanded the 20 prisoners below the mountain with a clear childish voice: “Your two captains, come up now!”
Huo Li then controlled the captain of each line of mechanical soldiers to stand up. They kept their hands behind their heads as they ‘obeyed the order’ to walk up the mountain. At the same time, Huo Li also turned to look at the group of survivors who were nervously watching the mechanical soldiers approach them:
“Don’t panic. Don’t shoot either. The connection between these mechanical soldiers and drones and the D system has already been cut off! They are now completely under the smart cabbage’s control and can serve humanity.”
“This, this is impossible!” Still being pressed to the ground by the black-haired youth, Alexander mutter in disbelief when he saw this scene.
The survivors who have been taught to hide from the machine ever since they were young and already have a deep-rooted fear of the mechanical soldiers also stared in shock at the extremely strange scene.
The two tall mechanical soldiers marched neatly up the mountain with their hands behind their heads. Then, under everyone’s nervous gaze, they walked up to the little cabbage standing at the front of the cabbage field. Putting down their hands, they plopped down and knelt at the same time! The two of them then simultaneously said:
“Little cabbage, my respected master! What can I do for you?”
Seeing this scene, Alexander knew that the situation could no longer be restored. His eyes rolled in shock and he lost consciousness.
And the survivors who had still been prepared to go down with the drones in mutual destruction just a second ago let out cries of alarm! They whispered to each other as they waited for the little cabbage’s reply.
Huo Li glanced at Xiao Yi. After seeing him nod and give permission, he once again controlled the little cabbage to proudly say to the two mechanical soldiers kneeling in front of itself:
“You are made as machines to serve humanity. From today onwards, you are humanity’s most faithful servants. Your ultimate goal is to assist your most respected human masters to overthrow the brutal rule of the evil D system! You shall provide the highest quality service to mankind! Your highest conviction is to completely destroy the D system and its subordinates! Do you understand?”
Then, amidst the excited whistles and cheers of the survivors, Huo Li immediately controlled the two mechanical soldiers to reply with devotion:
“Obeying the master’s order. From now on, we will work hard to serve the great humanity! Overthrow the evil D system!”
After Huo Li made the two mechanical soldiers maintain their kneeling position and use a revered gaze to look at the palm sized cabbage in from of them, he then controlled the little cabbage to arrogant reply in a childish voice:
“Very good, now you.” The cabbage used its tender green leaves to wave and point at the mechanical soldier kneeling on the left. “Go and call up all of your team members. From now on, you will be called Left One to Left Ten. You will treat the Claire siblings as your most important masters. Everything will be based on their orders.”
Huo Li then controlled mechanical soldier Left One to promptly reply with devotion: “My most esteemed cabbage master, I understand!” After saying this, it stood up and bowed towards the smart cabbage before retreating.
While controlling Left One to quickly walk down the mountain, Huo Li also control the little cabbage to turn to the other mechanical soldier kneeling in front of it and command:
“You guys will be called Right One to Right Ten. Hand over the communication devices on your bodies to the Claire siblings. Now, your little team will immediately drive your helicopter and return to the D system’s base as spies dispatched by your honourable humans to infiltrate the D system. First, report to the D system that the other surveillance drone had crashed in a sand storm and all the mechanical soldiers on board were destroyed by the explosion.
Then, leading 5 soldiers, try your best to find reasons to be transferred to the oil field base. Once you break into the oil field base, monitor the daily movements of the enemy and use the communication device to regularly report to your great human masters: Mister Claire and Miss Claire! Do you understand?”
And the mechanical soldier controlled by Huo Li, who in fact no longer had any thinking ability or memory storage function, fervently replied:
“I understand, master! I will definitely completely your assignment.” Then, under Huo Li’s control, it quickly walked in front of the Claire siblings and made a deep bow before handing over its communication device with both hands. After the female leader Claire received the communicator in a daze, Right One bowed again and retreated, walking down the mountain.
At this moment, Left One, who was still being controlled by Huo Li, had already arrived at the base of the mountain and was currently ‘teaching’ its subordinates……
The black-haired youth was stunned as he watched Huo Li play the role of ‘several dozen people’ in a one man show. He couldn’t help but lament in his heart: Big Boss Huo Li’s schizophrenia is really serious!
If one day, he retires from the Salvation Alliance, he could still go to the famous Starlight planet in the galaxy to perform in the theatres! So long as he provides some black strands to transform into different performers, he alone could perfectly act out an entire stage. In this way, the characters could grow however he wanted and they would definitely be emotionally connected. It is said that it is very difficult to obtain a ticket to the Starlight planet’s theatres…… This way, the two of us could earn a lot more money than saving the world for the alliance!
With nothing to do, the black-haired youth let his imagination run wild to pass the time as he watched Left One lead his 9 subordinates carrying their weapons in a neat line towards the Claire siblings. The soldiers gave them a bow and then waited for their command. The surrounding survivors loudly cheered; there were even some with tears streaming down their face! The mechanical soldiers who have always caused them great fear actually became their servants today!
Even the guards who originally hid inside the cave couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief when they saw this scene. After all, no one wanted to bring disaster onto the valley base and also expose its location to the D system.
However, the few cronies who supported Alexander’s usurpation of power were currently shrinking their necks like turtles. They hid within the crowd, as though they wanted people to believe that this matter had nothing to do with them.
With the 10 mechanical soldier servants armed with submachine guns, the Claire siblings regained control of the base. Mister Claire first assigned people to send the heavily wounded to the medical room in the valley for treatment. He then dispatched people to send the unconscious Alexander and his dozen of subordinates to be detained in the confinement room in the valley. He also commanded mechanical soldier Left One to drive the remaining armed helicopter at the mountain base into the valley for concealment. After they finished dealing with these matters, the Claire siblings walked up to Huo Li and Xiao Yi and solemnly said:
“On behalf of everyone in the valley base, we siblings thank you for your life-saving grace! If it weren’t for the valuable assistance of Mister Huo, Mister Yi and the smart cabbages, our valley base would most likely have been wiped out! It is now already noon. I invite Mister Yi and Mister Huo to come to our valley base’s hall for a rich lunch!”
“It is our duty. We also express our apologies on behalf of the Salvation Alliance for the actions of the previous saviours.” Huo Li exchanged pleasantries with Mister Claire in a formal tone.
Having had nothing to do all morning, the black-haired youth was very curious about Claire’s ‘rich lunch’. Hence, he directly interrupt the two who were still making conversation:
“Cough, since it’s like this, it would be impolite to refuse.” The black-haired youth said, “Mister Claire, please lead the way!”
After leaving behind some people to stand on guard, the four of them were happily escorted by the survivors to the hall of the valley base: this was actually a mountain that was completely hollowed out. There were rows and rows of clay tables and stone benches inside, which could accommodate more than 5000 people. At the top of the mountain, there were also several different sized holes to let the light in. Under the rays of natural light, the hall wasn’t dark at all. It was much more magnificent than the small dusky pit of the mine base.
At this moment, more than 4000 people of the base, besides the guards who were keeping watching and the dozen of people locked in the confinement room, were all gathered together in the hall. After the Claire siblings spoke in turn to thank Mister Huo and Mister Yi for their great deeds, Mister Claire announced:
In order to the celebrate the first day of humanity regaining control of the machine! Everyone shall eat the rare specialty of the valley base: the green algae which has a much lighter smell than the purple algae! The guests are lucky enough to be able to eat the cherished delicacy that the valley base has acquired after many years of cultivation: mice!
Everyone below the stage excited whispered to each other when they heard the words ‘green algae’. However, when they heard that Mister Yi and Mister Huo could actually eat the mice that their base had taken several years to cultivate, their low whispers instantly erupted into exclamations of alarm! The survivors below all cast jealous looks at Xiao Yi and Huo Li who were sitting in the seats of honour on the stage.
Their two smiles stiffened for a moment.
Xiao Yi’s heart: “……”
Huo Li’s heart: “I don’t want to eat mice at all……”
