Considering that these people might not know the name Bai E, the doctor paused before adding, "Also known as the adult from your Dawn Town."
It was difficult for a small town that suddenly emerged in the wilderness to escape the scrutiny of the field operation teams, not to mention that most of the people in the town were those who had fled from their own cities.
Indeed, if the actual controller of the Blackwater City Military District wasn't Bai E by now, the news of a wilderness warlord known as "Dawn Town" would have already landed on the desks of the main players among the various powers in Blackwater City.
It could be said that the doctor's understanding and awareness of Dawn Town were no less than any person in the town itself.
Because she had heard of some unexpected complications in the transport operation, Helen and it descended from the sky under the escort of the silvery-white original intelligent mechanism lord.
Landing before their own transport convoy, Helen fixed her gaze on the tall elderly man in front of her with evident confusion in her eyes, "You are?"
"I am the doctor from Grey Iron City, acquainted with that lad Bai E, where is he?" the doctor disclosed his background and intentions proactively, not wanting too many misunderstandings to arise.
"Bai E? He has already gone back."
He couldn't leave this place, as there were still many matters in Dawn Town waiting for him to handle.
Helen spoke, her eyes assessing the doctor up and down.
A doctor from Grey Iron City?
'Doctor' was a common title, but those who dared to use the title 'Doctor from Grey Iron City' outside of home were likely only one person.
This doctor was said to be the actual controller of Grey Iron City.
Moreover...
Helen's gaze drifted, settling on the group of quiet figures in black raincoats waiting behind the man who claimed to be the "doctor."
She had also heard of this group of "transformed fighters" who followed the doctor.
Grey Iron City and Blackwater City were on two completely different technological paths.
The transformed fighters from Grey Iron City were said to be alarmingly powerful.
With a hint of wariness in her eyes, Helen furrowed her brows and asked, "What do you want with him?"
"..." The doctor's lips pressed into a thin line, somewhat at a loss for words.
'Am I worried that if that lad can't win, I thought about coming over to help?'
But considering the familial scene with the intelligent mechanisms before me, aren't my words a bit superfluous?
'No!'
The doctor still couldn't understand how the intelligent mechanisms, which had always been enemies of humankind, had managed to mingle with the people under that lad's command.
"I came... to help him."
After a long hesitation, the doctor still had to reveal his true intentions, albeit with a darkened expression.
"You, want to help Bai E?" Helen still found it strange.
This was something Bai E had never mentioned to her.
If what he said was true, just how many things had this guy been doing behind everyone's back?!
Even the absolute controller of Grey Iron City was coming to help him?
Wait a second... If the absolute controller of Grey Iron City was willing to help him like this, what was he still doing in Blackwater City?
'...'
"Yes." Since the topic was broached, the doctor continued speaking calmly.
He looked at the strikingly beautiful Helen and somewhat oddly said, "Bai E probably didn't tell you, did he? My daughter is only willing to follow behind him. I'm afraid he'll die here. The moment I received word that you wanted to attack this intelligent mechanism base, I brought people and rushed over."
"..."
"..."
Helen momentarily fell into a state of befuddled confusion.
The daughter of the Grey Iron City doctor!
That guy actually managed to run off with the daughter of a city's ruler!
Incredible!
However, this... seemed to make some sense.
The doctor's gaze shifted past Helen and swept toward the silver-white First Generation Intelligent Mechanism leader standing beside her, looking protective. His eyes were also filled with puzzled confusion.
He recognized this extremely distinctive First Generation Intelligent Mechanism leader, who was the only king of this Intelligent Mechanism Base!
And at this moment, the only king was standing beside this woman, protecting her?
What did this represent?
"Now, what is the situation with you all?"
Aren't humans and intelligent machines natural enemies?
You... How could you collude together? Like rats flocking with snakes?
Hearing this, Helen lifted her chin slightly with pride, "They have surrendered."
After Bai E had left, through technological studies and contacts with these First Generation Intelligent Mechanisms, Helen became increasingly sure of one fact—
These intelligent machines had truly surrendered in earnest.
"..." The silver-white First Generation Intelligent Mechanism leader standing to the side slightly turned away its head. Its metallic face showed no "expression," but its tone clearly carried a hint of shyness, "Please... don't put it so unpleasantly. It's collaboration, just collaboration."
Helen nodded expressionlessly, "Yes, it's collaboration."
After leaving that electronic demon, Helen found that the minds of these intelligent machines were quite simple.
They indeed possessed intelligence almost equal to humans, but without guidance, they were really just as innocent as children who hadn't been corrupted by society.
If the electronic demon directed them to attack humans, they would attack humans.
Without the electronic demon, the freely growing intelligent machines were like blank slates, waiting to be stained by the encounters of the world.
"He actually managed to make the intelligent machines surrender?" The doctor's eyes flashed with a hint of amazement.
Even though the reality was already in front of him, when he heard the other party say it outright, he still felt a sincere shock.
This Intelligent Mechanism Base had always been seen as a thorn in the side of Blackwater City and Grey Iron City. If the intelligent machines didn't have a strong intent to expand, just stealing mines here and there, the two cities might... not be able to unite.
After all, Blackwater City also faced a more lethal threat from the Blackrock District Hive; they would never want to lose too much power over this Intelligent Mechanism Base that had no intent to launch an offensive.
But now...
"...It's a collaboration." The silver-white First Generation Intelligent Mechanism leader seriously corrected on the side.
"Yes, it's collaboration." The doctor also nodded expressionlessly.
Once both sides had made their identities clear and spoken out, the misunderstanding was completely resolved.
Helen waved to Yafei, who was in charge of the logistics for everyone on the side, "Let them continue their work, it's all right now."
Turning her head toward the doctor, she introduced herself, "I am an Academician of the Blackwater City Research Institute, you can call me Helen."
"Academician Helen." The doctor nodded and then looked at the humans and intelligent machine soldiers who were moving various large metal objects onto transport vehicles, "Are you organizing the transport of these materials for Bai E here?"
"Yes... and no." Helen turned and directed her gaze toward a First Generation Intelligent Mechanism leader next to her, "Transportation doesn't require my attention. The reason I am still here is that these intelligent machines possess technology that we can use."
"Oh?" As someone also involved in technology, the doctor was curious, "What technology?"
Knowing that the other party was Bai E's future "father-in-law," Helen spoke frankly, "A defensive technology called 'Power Source Shield,' to be placed on top of our latest developed armed system."
The doctor's eyes immediately lit up at this, and his face rarely showed a hint of eagerness, "Have you developed a new armed system? May I see it?"
Everyone is striving for the rise of humanity, and technology belongs to all.
If others are willing to accept, he never minds teaching the human enhancement technology he has mastered
And if others have some technology that he can also learn from, curiosity and eagerness are naturally unavoidable.
"Certainly." Helen agreed quite straightforwardly, "However, there are still many unresolved issues with no suitable solution, so the current armed system is still in a preliminary stage."
...
Rose hadn't left either.
Having such a good sparring partner in intelligent machines, she had been in charge of piloting the armed system, providing Helen with a continuous stream of data and refinement ideas.
And when Rose piloted the slightly modified armed system, the doctor was instantly impressed...
