However, this was the first time she had ever seen a miniature humanoid robot like this.
"Please do not call me a robot, but respectfully address me as Lord Erosion, meow."
Erosion crossed his arms and looked at the group of people in front of him with an arrogant expression.
"Huh? Kid, aren't you getting a little too arrogant? Do you even recognize this gun in my hand?"
Billy brandished the gun in his hand.
"Tch, you stupid robots. I have been appointed by Lady Bai Zhi as the acting CEO of the Immortal Dragon. If you want to do business with me in the future, you'd better talk to me properly."
"If you dare to speak rudely again, I will punish you severely, meow."
As he spoke, Erosion pulled out a miniature bow and arrow and said menacingly.
"Ha...hahaha, Nicole, did you hear that? She's going to punish me with that bow and arrow she's holding."
Billy pointed at the erosion, clutched his stomach, and burst out laughing.
The main problem is that it's eroded in this way, so it doesn't seem threatening at all. Besides, that miniature bow and arrow looks as funny as the toy bows and arrows of Cupid dolls.
"call out!"
Erosion drew back the bow, and a blue-gray energy arrow condensed on it before accurately striking Billy's arm.
"That's it? I didn't even feel anything."
Billy paused for a moment, then laughed. None of his sensors had transmitted any information about damage or device malfunction.
"Alright, Billy, that's enough. They're from Miss Bai Zhi's family, don't be so rude."
Nicole said helplessly, "Billy just likes to talk big sometimes."
"Apologize to them."
"Ahem..." Realizing he was at odds with the big spender's robot, Billy immediately reacted and prepared to apologize.
……
However, he immediately realized something was wrong. The sensors were not sending him any information about his devices being offline or damaged, but the problem was that he couldn't move his body.
Then, to his horror, his body began to move on its own, performing a deep dogeza (a traditional Chinese Buddhist posture).
“Billy, you…”
Nicole looked at Billy in surprise. Wasn't this apology a little too sincere? He practically prostrated himself in gratitude.
"Nicole, it's not that I want to, it's my body, my body is being controlled, it's moving on its own!!"
Billy shouted loudly, feeling wronged.
"Alright, alright, I know your body is moving on its own. You should be able to get up now."
Nicole said irritably, "It's just an excuse for appearances, I know that all too well."
"Nicole, I really didn't lie. My body has definitely been hacked. Waaah, it was this little guy who did it."
Billy let out a wail.
"Hehe, now you know how powerful I am, meow. A mere robot is nothing but a toy in front of me, Lord Corruption."
Erosion slowly flew up to Billy and said arrogantly, "Let's see if you still dare to look down on me, meow."
"What an amazing robot! Billy was taken down in a flash."
Nicole looked at the erosion with shining eyes. Although Billy usually seemed unreliable, he was actually quite formidable as someone with rich combat experience.
Unless it is an exceptionally powerful being, it is basically impossible to do anything about it.
The robot in front of them, called Erosion, actually killed Billy with a single small arrow.
If it could be brought into the void, would it also be effective against those skeletons?
"Could this robot have been manufactured by Miss Bai Zhi?"
Nicole couldn't help but think.
She had reason to think this way, because the things Bai Zhi had previously possessed had demonstrated considerable technological prowess.
It could even be said that, compared to the power of erosion, the technology that could penetrate hollow communication was far more terrifying.
Otherwise, Phaethon, who also possessed this ability, would not have been the legendary rope maker.
"Nicole, shouldn't you be concerned about me first?"
Billy looked up at Nicole pitifully.
"Ahem, Lord Erosion, I apologize, my Billy got too excited. Please forgive him for now. Besides, Miss Baizhi should be waiting for us too."
"Humph…"
Erosion gave a soft snort, but did not refute it. Instead, it beckoned, and the corrosive power on Billy immediately dissipated.
Control of the machine also returned to Billy's hands.
"Ah, I'm finally recovered, my body!!"
Billy jumped up. The feeling of losing his body was unbearable for him, and it even reminded him of various horror movies.
If the erosion cannot be brought back under control, he will probably have no choice but to remove his head and then take out a loan to buy a new body.
Just thinking about it makes one feel incredibly miserable about the second half of their life.
"Lord Corruption, I was wrong just now. You will always be my guiding light!"
Billy immediately gave a solemn bow.
"Hmph, that's more like it, meow. Let's go, Lady Baizhi is already waiting for you inside, meow."
Upon hearing Billy's words, Erosion suddenly became pleased.
Since she was born, there have been few scenes this exhilarating. It's definitely more enjoyable to fight against weaker opponents, meow.
"Then I'll trouble Lord Erosion to lead the way."
Nicole said, while also thinking to herself whether she should ask Bai Zhi later if she could buy this kind of robot.
Chapter 449 Old Yang, the Subway, and the Cellphone
"Good afternoon, everyone from the Cunning Rabbit House."
"Hello, Miss Baizhi."
As Nicole spoke, she looked around. The place seemed to have been newly renovated, and the first floor, in particular, looked like a very high-end retail store.
But... do all new Ellie have such efficient renovation teams?
It's only been four days, and the renovation is already so perfect, and there's no harmful smell from the new renovation.
If Bai Zhi knew what Nicole was thinking, she would definitely be pointing to a certain Herrscher of Reason, Mr. Yang.
Old Yang's Law of Reason ability is so useful. In terms of infrastructure, it's practically a universal tool that can be used anywhere, whether it's a production line or some kind of renovation.
Although the things created by those who uphold the law of reason are all time-limited.
But she specifically asked Lao Yang, and if it's not a particularly powerful weapon that consumes a lot of energy to use, the things created by the Herrscher of Reason actually dissipate very slowly.
Things like renovations and production lines would take at least several hundred years for all the energy to dissipate.
"We've found an owner for the motorcycle you requested, and they've agreed to let us buy it. We just need to take care of a few things."
"I see. Can you handle this? If you encounter any difficulties, I can help."
"Of course! With the Rabbit House involved, there's nothing they can't handle..."
Hearing Nicole drawl, Bai Zhi could easily tell that the other woman had other ideas.
"Please let me know if there's anything I can help you with."
"Hehe..." Nicole looked at Erosion a little shyly, "Miss Baizhi, do you sell these kinds of robots here?"
"Hey, you guys are pushing your luck! I'm Bai Zhi's acting CEO! Not some robot!"
When Nicole pointed at her and said she wanted to buy it, Erosion glared at her angrily.
There can only be one sun in the sky, and in her heart there is only one sun: Bai Zhi!
These weaklings are not qualified to be the masters she invades!
"Haha, Erosion is right. She is the acting CEO of my company and will be fully responsible for its development from now on."
"So, Miss Nicole, I cannot sell Erosion to you."
"Ah...it's okay." Nicole was slightly disappointed, but it was still within her expectations.
After all, the corrosion looks really strong, and the design doesn't seem like something that's mass-produced.
"However, I can't sell you the corrosive material, but you can rent regular armed dolls."
"Ordinary?"
Nicole immediately perked up. When she heard Bai Zhi say "ordinary," one word immediately came to her mind—mass-produced version.
This erosion machine is so arrogant, it must be some kind of prototype with extremely high-end features. The regular version is probably just a version with many performance reductions.
But judging from the performance of the erosion just now, even if it has been weakened, it shouldn't be bad.
“That’s right, Erosion is a special case, so it’s not for sale, but for the mass-produced version… we can lease it.”
Bai Zhi thought about it and realized that selling armed dolls didn't seem appropriate; renting them out would be more reasonable.
"Rental? That's fine too, Miss Baizhi, let's rent one."
"You don't need to pay. I have a mass-production machine here, which can be used with you to test its power."
Bai Zhi waved her hand, and an armed doll dressed as a maid walked out, holding a katana in her hand.
This is the second armed doll. The first one was Erosion, which originally looked the same as the second one, but after Erosion completely assimilated it, it turned into the Fairy Ellie doll.
Compared to the Corruption, the intelligence associated with the Secondary Armed Dolls is much lower, making them essentially pure fighting machines.
According to Mebius, the current materials are not suitable for mounting that full version of intelligence, so they can only put a simplified version on first.
Unless she is given more time, she may not be able to create an intelligent core using the materials of this world.
Or let the erosion completely assimilate these puppets.
"The difference seems quite significant..."
Nicole looked at the mass-produced doll, then at Erosion; the difference in their liveliness was like night and day.
"Miss Nicole, how about letting Erosion go with you this time? She can also collect some combat data on the dolls to make future improvements, what do you think?"
"No problem! In fact, we at Rabbit House would love to have this."
Upon hearing this, Nicole's eyes lit up. She didn't know how strong the mass-produced doll was, but Billy had already demonstrated how powerful the corrosive force was.
If you can bring Erosion in to help with a mission, that would be a huge help.
"Alright, Erosion, you remember your mission."
Bai Zhi then looked at the erosion.
"Master, no problem, meow~"
Erosion immediately saluted.
"Come on, you foolish mortals, this time I'll give you a little shock, meow!"
"Let me show you why I'm trusted by my master and have become the acting CEO, meow!"
Erosion, hands on hips, said smugly.
She had already seen the so-called information about the skeleton when she was collecting relevant online intelligence.
In response, she commented that it was still too weak, and the so-called etheric erosion was not even in the same league as her.
She only needed a moment, while the remains and ethereal energy of this world needed so much longer.
"Wow, this guy's mouth is really..."
Billy muttered under his breath.
"Alright, Billy, do you want another beating?"
Nicole glanced at Billy sideways.
