Charge and impact, the violent giant spirit hugged Delafis, and its body instantly expanded, causing an explosion.

Boom boom boom boom! Even though the size of this forest was beyond expectations, the battle on Li Aoz became more and more fierce, and the radical elemental fluctuations immediately attracted the attention of the academy.

Li Aoz lifted Information Rune, and there was an urgent notification:

[Affected by unknown reasons, elemental fluctuations occurred in the forest wetland area of the Natural Ecology Academy. Personnel who are conducting magic experiments in the workshop are asked to stop working immediately and stay in safe facilities such as underground rooms. Until the fluctuations stop, each unit is allowed to resume operations...]

"It looks like an investigation team will be here soon."

Jannia immediately asked, "What about that? Do you want to keep him alive for their interrogation?"

"No, I don't want to expose the existence of you and the Architectural Talent."

The artifact is secondary, because everyone knows that if you ask for an artifact and you don't get it, it will only make people jealous.

But the biggest problem is Architecting - this thing has the technology that only Narrative-level Civilization has.

In the Abyss, only Narrative No. 13 "Heroes Empire" and Narrative No. 12 "Temple of Annihilation" have mastered their own final path of [Architect]. Once this is exposed, Li Aoz will be labeled as a Narrative-level spy.

In a sense, [Architects] are trained as strategic personnel. They are responsible for engineering construction and Colonies environmental transformation on weekdays. During war, they can directly generate bunkers, fortifications, weather and even cosmic phenomena on the spot.

If it weren't for the fact that the threshold is not that high, an ordinary [Architect] would be able to handle the intensity of a career change.

Li Aoz shook his head:

"Kill it."

"Happy!"

[The recognition of artifacts increases]

Boom! The liquid element collided head-on, and fierce cold air erupted from the whole body. Facing the frontal bombardment, Delafis crossed her arms. Her body was in dilapidated condition, and most of her body was affected by elemental fluctuations and melted into a liquid state.

Even so, she still stood firm, and became more and more courageous under the siege of the giant spirits. She lifted the sharp blade of liquid metal like a whip, and instantly cut off all the giant spirits surrounding her.

"That's all."

Delafis fought back fiercely. As an existence equivalent to the civilized creature Delta-rank, her body is extremely strong and tough, and is much more durable than the ordinary Delta-rank.

If it was Delta-rank Liu E, under such indiscriminate bombardment, it would have stopped cooking long ago.

But [social] citizens are different. They are tenacious and do not know what fear is. If it is one-on-one, almost no one can defeat citizens of the same level.

The only problem is that their abilities are too single and traceable.

In addition to [Citizen]'s built-in infiltration simulation capabilities, leg knives, white death rays, liquefied bodies, and steam pressurization.

That's all there is to it.

She turned around and raised her legs to sweep across. Her legs were like scissors, cutting a Treant into pieces. She lowered her body and stood firm. Looking at the whole place, there was no giant spirit standing there.

The blast of air conditioning affected her body flexibility and has not subsided until now.

No matter what, the result of this battle ended with Delafis's victory.

"Next, it's you, Carbon Boy!"

——?

She scanned the front and did not find Li Aoz's figure.

[warn! Falling from high altitude——] Miso! Li Aoz stepped on a burning giant spirit and fell from the sky. The fire first covered the ground, instantly heating and brittle the opponent's metal body affected by the cold.

Thermal expansion and contraction, destroying stability, are the simplest and crudest methods.

The sword struck into her mind, and the fierce sword light mixed with the orang Red Lightning thunder easily destroyed her metal-tired head. Li Aoz held the sword in his backhand and smashed it all the way down, shearing and tearing the machine into two pieces.

[You killed 'Machine World Jury·[Mechanical Soul]'——Delafis (reforged once)]

[Jury members are the backbone of society and are high-value targets]

[Progress of promotion to 'Silver Hunter': Citizen (0/15) Jury (1/3), Councilor (0/1)]

[Because you defeated the new Social Citizen, you unlocked a new social hunting list.]

[Machine World Society·Mash Gergang (Small and Medium-sized Predator Society) - Level: 300]

[For the sake of Endless Star Abyss, please kill them to death.]

[Level-level kill rewards, high-value target rewards, total output accounting for 100%...]

[You gained experience: 58.95 million points]

"Look, isn't experience coming now?"

Li Aoz breathed a sigh of relief.

After such a long time, I have gained a lot of experience.

He pulled out the sharp blade, and the body of the costume would not leave any traces. As long as people without the [Weird] system had nothing to do and left here to summon spirits, they should not find any problems.

As for the [Weird] system—where did Magic Civilization come from this idealistic heresy?

Idealists are not welcome in any Tech Side civilization. Let alone the path, they will probably not even give you a chance to awaken.

The remains of the body are left here. Li Aoz has no intention of revealing his identity. Exposing the infiltration of [society] citizens will definitely cause panic. Once the college strengthens its management, the matter of his colonial brain will definitely be exposed. Even if the higher education bureau comes, he will not be able to save him.

After all, Interstellar Civilization's consensus on breeding equipment is that it is a 'dangerous biochemical vanguard'.

No one knows how many dangerous weapons there are in the colonization suit, including biological germs, lethal gases, and super-strong radiation sources—anything is possible.

"Let's see if there's anything good next."

After cleaning the battlefield, Li Aoz really found a good thing.

Although [Eye of Truth] cannot be used to identify it, Li Aoz remembers the attributes of this thing.

[Item name]: Saint Core [Category]: Material/power source

[Quality]: Social Institution [Introduction]: "The dark hexadecahedron material is faintly transmitting dark red light from the cracks, which contains some unknown power."

[Machine World Society]Mash Gergang is a terrifying creature that evolved from the machine Mech Race civilization. Among many predator societies, it is not the strongest, but it must be one of the most famous.

Its most famous achievement is naturally its participation in the attack and capture of [Overlord World]. Some people even rumored that it was one of the few societies to survive a direct battle with [God of the Present World], and its strength was extremely strong.

The speaker of Mash Gergang is 'Machine Saint Father' - Alpinot·Megani Rose, a strong man who has been reforged six times (contract level 320), equivalent to Omikron-rank (O, the 15th Greek letter).

In order to cope with the increasingly escalating combat needs, the Holy Father created a batch of unique mechanisms-'Saint Core', which are both a source of power and an increase in pollutants for companions. Each core has a corresponding code and serial number, controlled by the exclusive 'Machine Priest'.

The priest will install Saint Core on the machine, and after a complicated ceremony, a real citizen of the machine world can be added.

Without the accompanying ritual, Saint Core is nothing more than a semi-permanent battery that can power the machine and needs to be taken off regularly to recharge.

"Good stuff."

Generally speaking, [Society] will not explode equipment. However, [Outer Society] and [Machine World Society] are exceptions.

Demons and machines, you can tell with your toes how important they are to Spellcasters and Tech Side civilization.

Each of these two citizens is a walking rare material, which is one of the few opportunities for players to explode equipment in large quantities.

Saint Core has a special purpose - when it is directly equipped on complex equipment such as firearms, tanks, warships, fighter planes, and mechas, the weapon can gain autonomous consciousness, which is the so-called "smartness". It is also called "mechanical soul" or "machine soul" in some places.

The effect is quite good.

Even if it is not used by itself, Saint Core contains huge energy and can power any machine function.

No matter how bad it is, a knowledgeable person can make a Antimatter Bomb with his own hands, and it won't be a problem to level a city.

Although Li Aoz doesn't need it, [Mechanic] is thirsty for knowledge about this thing, so he can give it to Heroic Spirit Bar for consignment.

Or... use it to make friends with a long-established [Fine Arts] boss, and exchange it for the inheritance of [Architect].

Of course not one is enough. After all, this thing is not Spirit Maggot, Machine World Society is on this floor Star Abyss, at least fifteen.

Li Aoz weighed the black core, his eyes full of amusement.

"I wonder how many citizens of the machine world are in this school..."

The opportunity to make money belonging to Li Aoz is coming soon.

"You'd better have more people, hehe..."
