A Single Wave Takes Them All
The players, or more precisely, the wealthy players' plan, succeeded.
Use cannon fodder to draw the first wave of attacks, then Sister Ji uses her ultimate skill to temporarily control the enemy, and finally they are responsible for dealing damage.
Below level 30, most players' attack efficiency is far lower than that of modern combat weapons; simply put, it's at the level of an urban elite soldier.
Only by reaching the second tier, where the modification rate of a certain body system exceeds 100%, can one fully evolve into a junior space warrior, capable of fighting in various harsh planetary environments. Their combat power is no less than that of mass-produced combat units of a second-tier civilization, and they possess a variety of special skills, which is the level of an ordinary superhero in comics.
Having shared the players' field of vision, the senior engineer could naturally sense Baozi and the others' joy and secretly curled his lip.
With such a rudimentary ambush, do you really think this mechanical boss would fall for it?
It's all thanks to me covering for you guys!
Generally speaking, against monsters of this level, once you control them, you can't give them another chance to attack.
The "programmers" among the players stepped forward. There were quite a few neural editors, about eighty or so. On the network access pod, there were densely packed holographic screens, all displaying hacking programs. Although they couldn't compete with hackers in terms of immediate combat power, neural editors had one advantage: they could fight online. Once online, they could even infiltrate some large servers.
In most tasks, neural editors are unwelcome, except in one situation where they are considered gods—when hacking into an AI's data center.
Hackers also took action, but their methods were far more violent than those of neural editors: 'turret shutdown,' 'virus implantation,' 'vulnerability exploitation,' 'cybernetics explosion,' 'damage enhancement'—the more violent the better.
Hundreds of players following the information flow acted simultaneously, and the damage immediately flooded the screen. They finally obtained the boss's stats.

Upon seeing this boss's stats, countless players were stunned.
Its vitality and mechanical energy are both in the tens of millions, and three of its five attributes exceed a thousand. Even if it stands still and lets you hit it, you can't kill it in less than a day or two.
Of course, this is just the opinion of ordinary players. In fact, all the top players have already mobilized, striving to cripple the opponent in this wave.
As an energy life form, Dida cannot teleport, but when there is a high-intensity energy source around, it will act like a magnet, attracting her with a strong force. In the blink of an eye, Dida entered the other party's mechanical body and entered the other party's fire seed.
The opponent's spark was contained within a small black box, which was essentially a low-end version of the mechanical mainframe.
Sister Ji's kidney deficiency technique directly caused the energy flame of the fire seed to burn through the small black box, turning its surface into a small sun.
Dida's eyes lit up, and with a few waving hands, countless invisible fungi burrowed into the flames, took root and sprouted along with the flames, intertwining together to form a transparent flame mushroom.
"Clone!"
On the surface of the Flame Mushroom, a fleeting figure appeared, and in the next instant, the flame split into tens of thousands of pieces.
A small-scale explosion occurred within the core of the power-wielding robot, Els.
[You dealt 200,000 damage to the mechanical lifeform Els]
A large red number appeared in the task panel.
Umbrella Bro took a deep breath, his eyes blazing with fighting spirit. His muscles seemed to transform into springs, twitching and compressing wildly. Carbon-based fusion activated, and the surrounding light began to be rapidly absorbed. At first, there was a cloud of black mist, then a faint black figure, and finally even the figure disappeared.
As soon as the sound of a venomous snake spitting its tongue rang out again, Umbrella Brother had already traversed over a hundred meters and appeared on the surface of the opponent's enormous eyeball. A toothpick-like assassination sword had already pierced into the surface of the pupil, with only the hilt remaining.
[Your attack triggers weakness damage]
[You destroyed the visual simulator*1. Complete Mission 2. Reward: 2 million experience points, 10 random blueprints]
[You have dealt 100,000 damage to the mechanical lifeform Els.]
However, Umbrella Bro didn't fare well after pulling out this move; his right arm was fractured. After the Serpent Blade was pulled out, the blade seemed to melt, the smart module emitted blue smoke, and the words "Destroyed" appeared on the panel.
Umbrella Bro took one last look, somewhat unwilling to give up. Carbon-based fusion, drug use, and a vital attack still couldn't deal more damage than Tick-Tock.
Meanwhile, the Centaur Knight, the player who transformed his lower body into a mechanical horse, charged at supersonic speed, his drill lance piercing the opponent's finger with tremendous force, dealing over 10,000 damage, but without damaging the mechanical system.
Other expert players are similar.
However, this is the last wave.
A terrifying pressure surged forth again, even stronger than before.
"I can't hold it in any longer!"
With a scream from Sister Ji, all the implanted threads were stretched to their limit and then snapped at the same time. Sister Butter's health was instantly depleted, and she vanished in a flash of light.
At the same time, the neural editors who had joined forces to invade suddenly went black, and in a daze, it seemed as if a phantom of a towering mechanical general flashed by.
Then, one by one, their health points were completely depleted and they disappeared.
"Damn it, what's going on!"
"My account got banned via internet connection!"
The Cybertronian faction is the least adept at electronic warfare within the Mother City, but this is only a weakness at the Mother City level; dealing with them is still more than enough.
Neural editors are somewhat better off, since they are physically connected to the internet and only lose one level when they die. But those hackers who connect with their brains and whose souls enter cyberspace are in a much worse situation. In the terrifying tide of data, their levels drop drastically.
[Your data body has been attacked by the Cybertronian tide. Life data has been reprogrammed. Level -1]
[Your data body has been attacked by the Cybertronian tide. Life data has been reprogrammed. Level -1]
[Your data body has been attacked by the Cybertronian tide. Life data has been reprogrammed. Level -1]
The worst off among them has already lost ten levels.
This is the origin of the term "information deactivated number".
With hundreds of players dying at the same time, even the most clueless player would immediately sense something was wrong. Sure enough, when the two powerful robots regained consciousness, their emotional modules were filled with rage. Apart from dealing with large corporations, they had never been injured, especially not bitten by a group of ants on the surface of a planet.
The next moment, two enormous figures shot up, and the particle jet nozzles on their bodies began to rotate, growing from the size of a thumb to the size of a bowl, with half of the cannon muzzle protruding. In the next instant, thousands of energy beams descended from the sky.
This is a powerful move, and one that consumes life force. Generally speaking, unless it's against civilized weapons, they won't use this move.
But these ants successfully provoked their anger, and as a result, the players underground were in big trouble.
The damage from the energy attack can exceed 10,000. For players at this stage, being hit by it is basically a death sentence, even a glancing blow will kill them, and even being hit by the aftershock will be fatal unless they are tanky.
The energy cannon attack lasted for a full three minutes. After three minutes, ninety percent of the Atomic Islands were blasted to pieces, with island fragments scattered across the water. Meanwhile, thick black smoke billowed from all parts of the robots' bodies.
The robot lacks a respiratory system, but it does have a cooling system. In an instant, a large amount of liquid nitrogen cold air was sprayed out from all parts of the robot, covering its surface with a layer of frost.
"Um?"
Els sensed something, and his giant hand plunged into his abdomen. When it was pulled out, a partial energy shield on the hand had opened, and inside the energy shield was a small, strange, glowing life form. Els had never seen it before, but there seemed to be a record of this kind of life form in the Mother City's database.
Pure energy life form?
