The Authority Faction Robots
As Cybertron General's top henchman, the robot is not much different from the Transformers of the previous life in the eyes of the high engineer—except that it cannot transform into a car.
In the universe, these robots are also known as energy machines. They are special units in some old-fashioned mechanical civilizations, wielding various advanced energies and exercising the power of civilization's punishments.
Considering that the ancient mechanical civilization's specialty is perpetual motion machines, it is not surprising that they produced this type of unit.
Admittedly, these 'robots' are the most basic type on this planet, and most of them don't even have planet-destroying cannons installed. Back then, the senior engineer relied on his super transformation to repel a batch of them.
However, this is, after all, a mechanical elite monster that is over level 50 and is good at ganging up on others, making it extremely dangerous. If things aren't handled well, there's a good chance of failure. The difficulty of the Nightmare-level quest is certainly not just a trick to fool players.
The senior engineer's eyes flashed, and he retorted, "What? You're making me responsible for the virus's evolution, but you expect me to deal with these mechanical species as well? Are you, Mas Edge, planning to sit back and reap the benefits?"
"..."
There was a moment of silence on the communicator, but before the senior engineer could continue to provoke him, Miao Miaomiao's enthusiastic voice came through.
"How could that be! A mere mechanical legion is perfect for testing our group's latest superweapon!"
The senior engineer was 100% certain that the person speaking now was not Miao Miaomiao, but the behind-the-scenes boss of Mas Sifeng, the legendary Boss Ma.
It seems she's been possessed.
Generally speaking, only the most powerful corporate will can achieve 100% control over employees, but clearly, this person used some forbidden technology to achieve this through human effort.
This also means that from birth to death, Miao Miaomiao will be a member of this organization and will be unable to leave.
The senior engineer sighed softly, then decisively cut off this unnecessary conscience, and calmly said, "Don't stop them all. Let a few in, and it will accelerate the virus's reproduction."
At this moment, on the vast ocean, a group of Transformers, each nearly 100 meters tall, were going full speed ahead, their speeds exploding again and again. The sound of the sound barrier being torn apart rang out wildly, and as the mechanical bodies twisted and turned into a black line in normal vision, the speed of these monsters reached 15 times the speed of sound.
They were even stronger than Gao Gong had expected. As robots of the Power faction, these super soldiers of the Mother City were not level 50, but level 60, the second-tier maximum level. Moreover, when they moved at high speed, golden energy similar to "liquid" overflowed from particle jet nozzles as thick as water tanks. This energy condensed and did not release, forming a well-shaped energy armor on their hundreds-of-meters-long bodies. It was precisely because of this protective layer that their parts were not damaged during high-speed movement.
Therefore, even though there were only thirteen powerful robots, the aura they exuded was even more terrifying than the mechanical legion that the senior engineer had dealt with before.
To put it simply, each of these robots deployed has at least one boss template, and some even have more than one, such as the 'Mechanical Pioneer' at the very front.
In the mechanical world, the life forms of robots are actually quite different.
For example, in the most orthodox form, powerful AI creates a powerful mechanical body, and the two are combined into one. This is called a "parasitic machine", "cyber machine", or "main body", which is a combination of information technology and mechanical engineering.
Then, just like 'carbon-based species', different types of robots connect using 'consciousness storage devices' to engage in a kind of 'deep communication' and give birth to 'consciousness offspring'. If the quality is high, they are injected into a pre-arranged high-level body for intensive cultivation; if the quality is poor, they are placed in the mass-produced products and left to fend for themselves.
It probably absorbed some of the "advantages" of carbon-based species, and the cultivation of these offspring can produce tens of thousands at a time. This is one of the reasons why mechanical civilizations can expand like cosmic locusts.
This type of robot is a product of information technology interaction.
The third type, which is the one we are currently using, involves the mother city nurturing the "spark" and then the "mechanical pioneers" cultivating it. This ensures that every mechanical life form produced is an elite, but the downside is that they cannot be mass-produced.
And the "Machine Pioneer" is like the "mother" of these robots.
Venus, a pioneer of mechanics, is one of the leaders of the power faction and also the captain of this punishment squad.
She was in a very bad mood for a simple reason: Mas had secretly released the virus, causing several of her children to "catch a cold," which infuriated her.
As a mother, any injury to her offspring would enrage her greatly. Therefore, she has made up her mind to upgrade this "punishment operation" to the "extermination" level. This means that she can mobilize the weapons of the mother city orbiting the planet to carry out a complete annihilation of life!
Perhaps other factions of robots wouldn't be so reckless, after all, those that proliferate on the planet's surface are all valuable 'experimental data'.
But they are the "power faction"!
Power-powered machinery is invincible!
Just as her killing intent was boiling, suddenly, the 'early warning system' built into her body issued a warning. The visual simulation of the combat chip quickly unfolded. Three seconds later, the sea surface would suddenly split open, and countless jagged mouths would suddenly open, with sharp spikes like pillars piercing out from the seabed and frantically attacking the group of robots.
The real-time "image transmission" was shared with her offspring almost simultaneously, and within a nanosecond, the mechanical lifeform completed the disassembly and reassembly of the battle formation.
Three seconds later, accompanied by a strange metallic tearing sound, waves hundreds and thousands of meters high surged up almost simultaneously, and from within the waves, jagged mouths suddenly emerged and crashed into them.
At such a short distance and at such a high speed, a collision would theoretically be almost unavoidable. However, the hundreds of thousands of mechanical parts on these power robots began to separate, reassemble, and recombine simultaneously, while the particle jet nozzles on their bodies began to change direction, their light becoming blindingly bright.
In the blink of an eye, hundreds of waves exploded simultaneously, these waves without 'serrations' disintegrating into hundreds of millions of water droplets; this man-made ocean disaster was so easily swept away.
Three hundred kilometers away, beyond tens of thousands of waves, a dozen figures appeared in an instant. At this moment, these powerful robots had completed their transformation into combat form. The energy membrane of the model lake had completely transformed into energy armor, and at the same time, they had energy light blades in their hands. A storm-like killing intent aura began to rage across the entire field. If they had a system panel, they would have seen that master-level melee skills were beginning to light up.
Among the four major robot factions—Madman, Warrior, Rift, and Power—the Power faction is the only one that uses close combat as its means of fighting. This peculiarity is rare among many mechanical civilizations.
Therefore, they are also known as the "mechanical life form" constructs.
