In the following time, the three parties exchanged some detailed information about the characteristics of monsters, types of resources, and size of areas in their respective worlds.

Once the basic information exchange was complete, the atmosphere became subtle again.

The Mech Armor glanced at the Trickster without saying a word, then left.

[Zone 4 has been eliminated; all remaining areas receive +8 points]

The Trickster stared at the direction the Mech Armor had disappeared in, his eyelids twitching slightly. Just as he was about to run after it, Su Luo's calm voice rang out:

"Don't move."

Before the words were even finished, the previously calmly flowing black flames seemed to receive a command, gently yet irresistibly coiling around and quietly clinging to the Trickster's hat brim, shoulders, and the hem of his robes.

The flames did not display the terrifyingly high temperature that could incinerate everything; instead, they acted like the most resilient shackles, firmly fixing him in place and keeping him in the system's "combat state" judgment, preventing him from performing the "surrender" operation.

The Trickster froze.

Su Luo stopped looking at him, turned around and entered the Laboratory, leaving the Fire Domain directly with her beloved little Laboratory in her hand.

The Trickster already guessed what was about to happen, forcing a smile, "What's wrong, Mr. Demon King? Didn't we... make a promise?"

Song Shige did not answer, but silently took out a slightly wriggling [Flesh-and-Blood Communication Doll] from the System Space and gently pressed it with his finger.

The doll's tiny mouth immediately opened and closed, perfectly replicating the Trickster's uniquely accented voice:

"There's no point in continuing this stalemate. If our only goal is to cause trouble for the Scholars and the Demon King, we can simply hide and wait for the time to run out. Then they won't get the points to eliminate us."

Mech Armor, you big idiot! Why are you recording?!

The Trickster thought to himself as he watched the Fist hurtling toward his face.

At the same time, Su Luo drove the Laboratory without stopping, adjusted the direction, and sped towards a certain coordinate in her memory.

The Laboratory, like a meteor tearing through the earth, traversed hundreds of kilometers of scarred land, finally descending slowly at the edge of a relatively intact wasteland.

Directly in front of him was a strange sight Spread for several kilometers, composed of countless pure white mechanical units.

Unfortunately, all the mechanical units have completely stopped operating. From their scattered state, it is still possible to vaguely discern that what should have been a multi-level, three-dimensional structure has fallen apart for unknown reasons, shattering into pieces.

Spider-shaped miniature units lay prone on the ground, with the wreckage of various crashed drones not far away.

Su Luo picked up a machine, broke off a limb, and flames rose in her palm, the temperature steadily climbing from one thousand degrees.

Even when the temperature was raised to 4,000 degrees Celsius, no change was observed on the alloy surface.

At 8,000 degrees Celsius, the material's toughness decreases slightly, but its overall strength remains stable.

The metal edges only began to slowly melt at 12,000 degrees Celsius.

Su Luo's expression was strange.

He did not detect any Mana or unusual energy fluctuations in the material, and its composition belonged to the category of ordinary matter.

This is outrageous. The technological sophistication behind this one material alone probably surpasses the sum of all the equipment on that previous Warship, except for the laser main cannon.

It should be noted that the alloy with the highest melting point before Crossing is Tantalum-Hafnium Carbide Alloy, which is only 4215 degrees Celsius.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the temperature resistance is only twice as much.

The binding forces of ordinary atoms are directly destroyed at temperatures of 10,000 degrees Celsius, and all ordinary substances will be destroyed.

This means that if Su Luo's Fire Domain Spread indefinitely, it could destroy the entire planet.

Therefore, this is definitely not the product of a materials science lottery.

Instead, it directly intervenes at the atomic level, forcibly reconstructing the arrangement of matter, which belongs to the precise manipulation at the microscopic level.

This technology was incredibly advanced for the human civilization before the time Crossing.

Using it to withstand missile attacks is a complete waste of its potential.

Although Su Luo's Laboratory can achieve a similar level of defense, it relies on a set of eternal Constant Spells that are stacked regardless of cost.

As far as the eye can see, there are endless white waves made of this alloy.

These materials have clearly achieved large-scale and Rapid Production, which makes Su Luo even more interested.

The Laboratory continued its journey, arriving at the heart of the white wave.

A huge crater was suddenly revealed.

At the bottom of the pit, there were countless mining machines that had ceased operation.

Su Luo picked it up, disassembled it, and found that its internal structure was much rougher than expected. Although the design was ingenious, the mining method still relied on high-strength drill bits for excavation.

"Ah?!"

Su Luo didn't know what to say. She wasn't asking for anything particularly high-tech, but at least something like laser mining.

Using such top-quality materials, they just drill into the ground.

It has a kind of primitive beauty, like a nuclear bomb being set off by primitive people.

Following the ore transport line, we arrived at a small building that looked quite high-end.

A compact furnace.

Although the equipment had stopped running, Su Luo could still feel the astonishingly high temperature remaining within it. The molten metal that had once flowed had solidified into irregular metal ingots below.

Su Luo bypassed the building, looking for the next production line, only to find it completely empty.

I was very disappointed.

Upon closer inspection, regular-shaped subsidence was discovered on the ground, indicating that some giant structure had previously existed there.

The truth is then quite obvious.

Previously, a Survivor stayed in this spot, deployed a base vehicle, and started mining and building up units, but was eliminated in close combat before he could scale up his forces.

His Sanctuary disappeared along with him. The alloy manufacturing plant, forging factory, production line, and Command Center that might have existed behind the furnace were all part of the Sanctuary and left with him.

"Similar to that Warship... it follows a technological route, but its power doesn't originate from itself..." Su Luo frowned.

"A complete, small-scale but highly technologically advanced and rapidly automated industrial system... its technological distribution is as distorted as that Warship."

Stopping her reasoning, Su Luo began picking up the trash at lightning speed.

In the blink of an eye, several Storm Cores in the Fire Domain hundreds of kilometers away rose up in response, roaring in with Black Flames and Fire Elements.

Su Luo stood still and collected several of all types of automated machines, planning to see if she could reverse engineer them later.

They casually dismantled the furnace shell and installed the core equipment inside into the Laboratory.

Then, looking up at the black sea of fire descending from the sky, Su Luo controlled it to burn and melt the mechanical wreckage stretching for several kilometers on the field, retaining only that strange alloy, which was slowly melted into one cubic meter pure white metal block after another.

These high-quality materials are perfect for Laboratory upgrades and component manufacturing.

Su Luo burned about a hundred cubic meters of strange metal, checked the time that was about to end, and left satisfied.

"This area is Zone 3, so let's call this No. 3 Alloy."

Back in the Fire Domain, Song Shige was still beating up the Trickster. Su Luo stopped to watch for a moment, then began to pack the No. 3 Alloy block into the Sanctuary of the people in Zone 76.

[Zone 7 has been eliminated; all remaining areas receive +9 points]
