Grotto World.
Mechanical ruins, underground passages.
The beam of the flashlight wandered on the damp wall. A Lan maintained combat mode in the combined form, wearing the teammate pendant in the monster form.
After this period of exploration, the combined mode has been upgraded again.
In addition to having more teammate accessories, his Astral Veins combination also has a new Monster Soul added to it.
"Insight" Monster Soul has been added, which can help him quickly locate the weak points of mechanical life and improve hunting efficiency.
It was originally intended to be embedded with the latest contained Siphon Monster Soul to enhance combat endurance.
However, mechanical lifeforms have no spiritual power to absorb at all, and are not suitable for hunting environments.
In fact, as the main part of the Combined King Kong gameplay, he can inlay many Monster Souls, and each inlayed Monster Soul can greatly improve the overall strength.
However, Astral Veins level upgrade is too expensive.
For the next upgrade of Astral Veins, he also plans to inlay the "gold coin" Monster Soul to increase the income of the Gold Coin Merchant Association. Star Vein Slot is simply not enough.
After exploring the mechanical ruins of the city, he planned to get his teammates back on track.
Completely bid farewell to the Combined King Kong mode and return to the mainstream gameplay.
This way we can eliminate some Monster Soul who play the combined game.
For example, if Monster Soul and San Shi Monster Soul share the same life, they will be eliminated after ending the combined mode.
Teammates can also be freed from the pendant mode and officially start exploring Monster World.
As we walked along the way, our boots made a squeaking sound in the stagnant water, and the air here was filled with the smell of engine oil and metal rust.
Wherever he looked, mechanical parts of Shatter were scattered everywhere. Various gears, bearings and broken mechanical arms were piled together, as if it was a special mechanized funeral.
"Captain, be careful of electric shock." At this time, teammate Eagle Head Demon gave a reminder in his mind.
A Lan looked up at the position marked Eagle Head Demon. Three broken cables hung from the ceiling not far away, and a few Mars burst out from time to time, illuminating the oil stains floating in the water below.
"Understood."
After giving the response, A Lan chose to avoid the leakage and water accumulation area and continued to explore forward against the wall.
Passing through the nearly scrapped mechanical passage, the view ahead suddenly widened.
What is presented in front of you is a silver-white scene.
At this time A Lan heard a subtle buzzing sound coming from the depths of the scene where the light could not reach.
"Captain, we are sweeping robots in an array. They can fight and wave."
After getting a clear answer from his teammates, A Lan Left Hand raised his rock shield teammate, and his right hand Li Man Axe teammate burst out with golden flames.
I saw sweeping robots with red lights on emerging from the darkness, holding high and rotating rust-removing brushes, massing towards them.
A Lan took the initiative to step forward, and his right hand Li Man Axe suddenly swept forward.
Gāng Qì Monster Soul was released, and Li Man Axe pulled out Liu Guang with a wave. The released ax shadow smashed the three sweeping robots into pieces with one blow, and the parts were scattered on the ground.
The challenger prompt sounded in his mind, A Lan twisted his hips to use his strength, and waved Li Man Axe again.
The crisp sound of metal being cut kept ringing.
In a short time, he had wiped out the group of sweeping robots that once required the cooperation of his teammates to kill them.
Calling up the map, he was still 3.8 kilometers away from the center of the Mechanical Ruins City, which was not far away.
After clearing the direction, A Lan did not stop and continued to explore the central area.
Coming to the end of the silver-white scene, A Lan saw a broken production assembly line still spinning Good Luck, making a low humming sound.
The metal frame of the assembly line has long been rusty, and part of the structure has been bent by the collapsed ceiling, but it still stretches stubbornly towards the dark end.
The conveyor belt is covered with cracks and welding marks left by Engineering Robot repairs, and it makes harsh friction sounds from time to time.
At the starting point of the assembly line, four old robotic arms tremblingly grabbed scattered metal fragments from the mountains of scrap. Their joints made a "squeaking" sound, and their movements were slow and clumsy, as if they would be paralyzed at any time.
It can be found that most of these metal fragments are mechanical remains recovered from the ruins. The surface is covered with scratches and rust, and has long lost its original luster.
In the middle of the assembly line, several barely functioning welding robots were trying to piece together these fragments into the shell of a sweeping robot.
The welding gun emits weak Fire Flower, but the energy supply is obviously insufficient and the welding points are uneven.
At the end of the assembly line, a barely formed sweeping robot slid precariously down the conveyor belt.
Although its shell is polished and bright, the chassis wheels are skewed and it moves crookedly.
The array of sweeping robots we just encountered was obviously born from here.
A Lan has not let go of these resources.
Kill the robots that are still running, then disassemble the energy source on the production line and throw it into the space bag.
He didn't even let go of the accumulated mechanical debris.
It doesn't matter whether it is Sacrifice Di Zhao or Trading House.
This is another substantial additional benefit.
Passing through the sweeping machine production line, A Lan led the team to move forward.
The strength of the robot warriors encountered later has been significantly improved.
The hunting levels of guardian type, combat type, destructive type... have all reached 25+, among which the hunting level of destructive robots is generally 30+.
Even with the support of Combined King Kong mode, A Lan still feels extremely difficult.
The speed of advancement can only be slowed down, and you need to drink medicine to replenish your status after each battle.
This three-kilometer journey took half a day.
They finally arrived outside the central area of the mechanical ruins city.
Bang!
Li Man Axe led Liu Guang towards the broken metal pillar blocking the road.
Fire Flower splashed everywhere, and the thick metal pillars cracked like rotten dead wood, stirring up a cloud of dust.
After crossing the obstacle, A Lan entered the central area of the Machinery City.
The scene in front of him was extremely shocking. It was like a city forgotten by time.
The broken mechanical high-rise building is like a giant skeleton, and the rusty metal walls are covered with a mechanical neural network composed of glowing mechanical vines. Faint energy is still flowing inside, like the blood of the city is still beating.
Countless mechanical remains were scattered on the ground.
Giant gears, Shatter drones, mechanical guards... the surfaces of these mechanical equipment are covered with a thick layer of dust.
Look up.
On the dome, a huge crack ferociously tore open the original complete structure of the city. The edges of the crack were ragged, and the metal skeleton was twisted and deformed, as if it had been torn apart by some irresistible force.
The broken metal fragments are connected by a mechanical network and hang on the edge of the gap, swaying in the wind.
Through the hole in the dome, you can see the sky at a glance. You can see the dark clouds in the sky. Occasionally, there are a few lightning flashes across the sky, illuminating the central area below the dome.
Seeing this scene, A Lan could imagine what happened to the Machine Guard Clan.
This potential race with the ambition to conquer the world has faced a crisis of genocide that it cannot contend with before it has even developed.
Destroyed by other descending forces or the native ethnic group of Monster World.
What was left was this city that was almost paralyzed but still barely functioning.
But having potential and being able to grow are completely different things.
It is certain that there are many forces with potential like Monster World, but most of them have fallen on the road to rise and failed to become a truly powerful clan.
Luck is also a very important part of the growth of an ethnic group.
No matter how high the potential is, if the starting point is wrong, it is destined to be difficult to reach the end point.
Unless you are like their players, who have unlimited error tolerance and can stand up from failure an infinite number of times and continue the unfinished journey.
Eyes turned to the front.
In the center of this area, a towering mechanical tower reaches straight into the dome.
The tower body is composed of countless stacked metal rings, and each layer is still flashing a faint blue light, as if some kind of energy is flowing within it.
Most of the top of the tower was cut off by external forces. Occasionally, lightning in the sky was attracted by the energy flowing in the tower, struck through the torn dome, and struck behind the tower, sparking a dazzling arc.
While feeling shocked, A Lan stepped toward the tower.
After the distance was close, he turned on his analytical ability and swept away:
[Eternal Tower(Unfinished, damaged)]:
Analysis introduction: The supreme miracle created by the Machine Guard Clan in pursuit of mechanical immortality stands in the center of the Machinery City, symbolizing the pinnacle of technology of the Machine Guard Clan. The tower is connected to the core energy hub created by the Machine Guard Clan, and is also the ultimate carrier of the consciousness of the leader Machine Guard Clan (not uploaded).
A huge consciousness network has been constructed in the tower. Through mechanical neural technology, leader Machine Guard Clan will enter an immortal state after being fused with it.
Everything in the Mechanical City can be controlled through the mechanical neural connection network.
Note: Machine Guard Clan believes that as long as Eternal Tower remains standing, their civilization will continue forever.
"Sure enough, there is Eternal Tower!"
Although this is only a semi-finished product, the appearance of Eternal Tower also makes A Lan extremely excited.
This means that plans as conceived can move forward.
It's not a problem that it's not completed. When player qualifications are gradually issued, more and more members of the Moon Eclipse Clan will come to Monster World.
They can completely improve the unfinished parts of the Eternal tower on the basis of what Machine Guard Clan created.
As players, they have plenty of time.
Coming closer, the towering Eternal Tower looks like a stone pillar piercing the sky.
The bottom of the tower is surrounded by a huge energy pipe, but there is no energy liquid flowing in the pipe, and only a thin mist can be seen floating inside from time to time.
Surrounding the tower is an empty square, with complex mechanical neural networks carved on the ground.
There are twelve huge mechanical statues standing around the square, all of which are broken or even cut off at the waist.
A Lan has known about these twelve statues.
While exploring the tunnel, he found many future concept blueprints left by the Machine Guard Clan.
According to the records on the drawing, these twelve statues are guarded by the Machine Guard Clan: Eternal.
The initial positioning of its creation was to protect Eternal Tower.
When any non-certified target approaches, the guard will automatically activate and launch a devastating attack on the intruder.
Each statue is equipped with the Machine Guard Clan's most advanced weapons and equipment, and the mechanical neural network under its feet can also provide charging at any time.
Similar to the wireless charging mode in reality.
But judging from the degree of damage to the statues, they have lost their combat effectiveness.
Walking straight to the front of the tower, there are eight straight bridges leading to the tower, and below is a bottomless space.
The bridge body is made of thick alloy, and its surface is covered with complex mechanical patterns, which is enough to accommodate several mechanical vehicles running in parallel.
On both sides of the bridge are tall metal guardrails. The guardrails are engraved with the pattern Machine Guard Clan, a mechanical arm making a fist.
To be cautious, A Lan took out a piece of metal fragment from his space bag and threw it towards the metal bridge.
Biao Qiang!
The metal fragments bounced up after hitting the ground and fell into the abyss below.
It was found that no hidden mechanism was triggered, but A Lan did not relax his vigilance.
Machine Guard Clan's technology is very advanced, and the detection method he tried may not be useful.
Referring to the important defense areas of Moon Eclipse City in reality, they are all equipped with life detection systems. This is the core area of the Machine Guard Clan, and it stands to reason that there will also be multiple defenses.
Although the mechanical city's energy is nearly exhausted, the Eternal Tower tower is still flashing faintly from time to time, proving that the internal energy Source Core is still running.
Two more metal fragments were lost, and A Lan, who was unsure whether there was a mechanism or not, decided to go forward in person.
The best choice at this time is actually to throw a teammate pendant and conduct a life test test.
But this is obviously too outrageous.
When he came to stand in front of the metal bridge, A Lan took the first step forward and stepped on the grid-shaped metal bottom plate.
He leaned back, ready to turn around and run away at any moment.
The first step is okay, then the second and third steps.
When the fifth step falls, the spiritual patterns on the metal bridge light up from the end, and the flash quickly spreads to the starting point.
Seeing this scene, A Lan didn't even look at what would happen next, and decisively turned around and ran away.
"Captain, there are many mechanical creatures flying out from under the bridge, each one is level 40."
A Lan turned his head to look while running, and saw mechanical beings of various shapes emerging from under the bridge. Some were like metal bats, with wings composed of sharp blades, some were like mechanical spiders, with eight legs flashing cold light as they ran, and some were like swarms of micro drones, densely covering the entire field of vision.
The indicator lights of these mechanical creatures flashed red, obviously entering combat mode.
Driven by some invisible instructions, they came in droves.
These mechanical creatures are not large in size, but after analyzing them, A Lan was shocked.
The materials used to build these mechanical creatures are Machine Guard Clan's most precious "guardian gold", and the hunting level of each one has reached 40+.
With their current strength, even one of them is no match, let alone a group of them.
A Lan's running speed suddenly accelerated.
But no matter how fast he ran, he couldn't fly as fast. He felt the Wind Breaking sound coming from behind, and A Lan lowered his head suddenly.
The wings of the metal bat flew across the top of the head, and the Eagle Head Demon teammate standing above the head was killed with one blow, and Emperor's Tomb Village returned instantly.
"Captain, run quickly, the chicken dies so miserably."
After looking at the teammate portraits in the team list that had turned gray, A Lan wanted to speed up even more, but heard a short scream coming from behind.
Another teammate was killed.
Realizing that there was no way to escape from the Mechanical Legion's pursuit, A Lan decisively turned around, raised his rock shield, and hit his teammates hard at a flying mechanical bat.
"Captain, stop running away. The brave one wins when we meet on a narrow road. We will fight back!"
As soon as the words fell, a laser suddenly swept over, and A Lan's body instantly cut into black mist and dissipated.
Upon seeing this, his teammates gave up Resistance after landing and calmly welcomed death.
After all, he is no longer a new player, and death has long lost the fear he had for the first time.
After entering Xiao Hei's Room, A Lan's line of sight automatically jumps to the forum interface.
Above is the beating countdown number to resurrection.
Although he died, A Lan was extremely excited inside.
Facts have proved that Eternal Tower really exists.
Although many settings are not perfect, and even the original main body has been damaged a lot, A Lan already has expectations for the future.
He had not been offline for a long time and chose to exit the game at this time without looking at the forum information.
The sight is like a curtain closing at the end of a stage play, gradually being shrouded in darkness.
After a brief feeling of weightlessness, the consciousness is transferred back to the physical body.
Tsk!
Four lines of white mist sprayed from both sides of the game chamber.
The nutrient solution in the game chamber is evaporated, and the lid of the game chamber moves upward.
A Lan sat up in the game room.
Unlike the game chambers used by most races on the earth, the game chamber used by A Lan does not need to be replaced regularly by Nutrient Can.
The game barn uses a pipeline-connected nutrient supply system, which is significantly different from the traditional immersion nutrient solution.
This design atomizes the nutrient solution through a network of pipes and delivers it directly to the user's skin surface, using nanoscale penetration technology to ensure maximum absorption efficiency of nutrients.
After each game, the intelligent system will automatically evaporate and recycle the remaining nutrient solution to avoid waste and pollution.
The evaporation process also involves the built-in Purification, which separates the water and trace components in the nutrient solution, condenses and recovers it. The body dander tissue remaining in the liquid is decomposed into gas and discharged, which is absorbed and processed by the air Purification System in the room.
Secondly, the game cabin is also equipped with a temperature adjustment device to ensure that he is always in the best physiological condition during the game.
This design not only saves resources, but also reduces the user's discomfort, making it suitable for long-term virtual gaming.
After obtaining the Monster World game qualification, A Lan also installed Motor System in his game warehouse.
Every once in a while, a large number of tiny air pressure bags will be injected into the game chamber to gently wrap his body.
During this process, the air pressure bag will inflate and deflate regularly like breathing, simulating muscle contraction and relaxation.
Including joints will also be pushed by the air pressure bag to perform gentle activities, such as ankle rotation and knee bending.
However, under the precise control of the gaming chamber, the body maintains healthy blood circulation and muscle activity, avoids muscle atrophy caused by long-term gaming, and promotes blood circulation.
After the exercise is over, the air pressure bag will be automatically retracted.
Due to the existence of a nutrient supply system, this type of game warehouse needs to be connected to the urban nutrition bank, so it has not yet become popular in cities of all races on the earth.
Stand up and walk out of the game room.
A Lan came to the dining table, picked up the water glass and drank a glass of blue liquid.
His eyes scanned the room.
The room he is in is mainly white and blue, and the walls are made of translucent nanomaterials.
There are light blue light patterns flowing on the surface, which seem to be alive and fluctuate slightly with the light and sound in the room.
These light patterns are not decoration and are created using holographic environment simulation technology.
The surface of the wall is composed of countless tiny nano-pixels, which can instantly change color, brightness and texture according to instructions.
It can even simulate dynamic light and shadow effects.
The chip on the back of A Lan flickered slightly at this moment, and the idea was immediately transmitted to the house's smart system.
The original light blue wall instantly turned into a peaceful forest.
The tall trees have lush branches and leaves, and the sun casts mottled light and shadow through the leaves. The breeze blows, the leaves sway gently, and you can even hear the sounds of birds and streams.
Even the air will change accordingly, beginning to be filled with the fresh smell of earth and grass, as if you are in nature.
This holographic technology is combined with virtual technology, and even with the naked eye it is difficult to see any flaws.
Even the environment can change according to the changes of A Lan's pupils.
A Lan gave the command again, and the scene switched to the vibrant underwater world.
In the three-dimensional scene presented on the wall, colorful fish schools swim leisurely, and coral reefs sparkle with charming colors in the light and shadow.
In the distance, a huge whale swam slowly and made a low cry.
The switching command was transmitted again, and the wall suddenly turned into a vast starry sky.
In the dark background, there are stars, and the Milky Way stretches across the sky like a bright strip of light.
From time to time, meteors streak across the starry sky, leaving a brief dazzling light.
During this period, A Lan can also zoom in on a certain galaxy and observe the orbits of planets at close range.
The room temperature is also automatically adjusted during this period.
There is no need to give any instructions, the intelligent system will automatically adjust the brightness, temperature, and humidity of the room based on the emotional fluctuations conveyed by the chip on the back of the neck.
A Lan came to the corner of the room at this time.
There is a three-dimensional printing cabin here, which looks like an oval blue and white capsule.
Tap on the screen of the printing cabin, and selectable printing items will be displayed.
Moon Eclipse Clan has developed to this day, and basic daily necessities no longer need to be purchased.
The three-dimensional printing cabin can meet all basic life needs, from simple clothing, toothbrushes, shoes, to various daily tools. All daily necessities can be printed in just more than ten seconds. There are a large number of optional style templates in the database.
There is a smart wardrobe next to the printing cabin. The door is transparent and the clothes inside are hung neatly. They are all made with a three-dimensional printing cabin.
The smart screen on the glass will also automatically recommend outfits based on A Lan's schedule.
For example, when attending a high-level meeting of the Moon Eclipse Clan, more serious clothing will be recommended.
Usually when I'm at home, I basically wear it casually, or just wear gaming clothes.
After printing a brand new set of game uniforms for backup, A Lan came to the center of the room and waved his hand as the projector light on the ceiling lit up, and the projected light and shadow intertwined into a virtual office desk in the room.
The seat automatically rises from the ground to fit the body.
A Lan began to record the findings in the virtual game, as well as planning proposals for the future development direction of the Moon Eclipse Clan.
Especially Eternal Tower, this may be a huge help for Star Network after entering the game.
Just when A Lan was immersed in his work, the projection light on the ceiling changed automatically, and then a child's figure gathered around A Lan.
Realizing that Star Network was coming, A Lan stood up immediately:
"Star Network."
"No need to report, I already know about Eternal Tower's situation. I watched your live broadcast the whole time, but you didn't notice that I was always in your live broadcast room."
A Lan heard this and looked slightly excited and said:
"Star Network, what do you think of Eternal Tower? Can it be used as a body to carry your consciousness?"
Star Network smiled and nodded:
"It's really good. Machine Guard Clan has conceived many novel technologies, which may all be realized in our hands. It even gave me the idea of building a Mechanical Legion."
"Mechanical Legion, can you tell us in detail?" A Lan looked a little confused after hearing these words.
Before this, Star Network said clearly.
The development of the Moon Eclipse Clan is centered on three systems: Monster Soul, Astral Veins, and Body Tempering. Technological weapons can only be used as development aids.
The battle damage of the Mechanical Legion system is very high. The initial idea of Star Network is to apply it according to the situation.
After all, players can be reshaped after death, but only part of the mechanical life produced by the assembly line in the arsenal can be recycled after death. It must be repaired through complex processes, or smelted into metal resources for reuse.
Faced with the inquiry, Star Network nodded:
"Assuming that I participate in foreign operations as Commander Player Legion in the future, it is indeed a good development path. However, compared with Commander Black Tide, I have an obvious shortcoming, that is, there is a significant delay in issuing orders."
"This delay cannot be solved by any means for the time being, unless Special Soul appears in the future that can perform mental connection and can directly present my thoughts in the mind of the commanded player. Before that, no matter what order I give, it needs to be understood by the commanded player before it can be executed."
"Di Nian Evil Spirit's command ability and Evil Eye's data analysis ability are constantly improving as they grow. My advantage will gradually shrink. In the future, command delay will be my biggest shortcoming, even a fatal shortcoming when fighting against Black Tide."
Hearing this, A Lan immediately understood what Star Network was thinking:
"So you build a Mechanical Legion so that you can command without delay. Like Di Nian Evil Spirit, ideas are commands, narrowing the gap in command efficiency."
Star Network nodded:
"That's exactly what I thought."
After clarifying Star Network's thoughts, A Lan's doubts deepened at this moment:
"I have a doubt. Building Mechanical Legion can indeed significantly improve command efficiency, but the combat strength cannot be compared with the player system. So how can we make up for the gap in combat power?"
"Secondly, Mechanical Legion obviously cannot solve the strength gap in arms. Black Tide has all arms, while Mechanical Legion's arms are created based on the assembly line of an arsenal. Every time a type of mechanical warrior is built, a production line must be opened. There is a significant gap between this development model and Black Tide."
"Di Nian Evil Spirit can switch arms to Time Slice on the battlefield with just one thought, but the way you generate arms is through the rear arsenal. The battlefield environment is changing rapidly, and the generation speed and switching speed of arms are too inefficient. Although there is a delay in commanding players, players have the blessing of rules and are not absolutely restrained. However, the arms generated by the Mechanical Legion can easily be restrained by Black Tide, resulting in being crushed in all directions."
Star Network heard this, smiled and nodded:
"This is also the reason why I gave up the Mechanical Legion model before. The non-player system simply cannot compete with Black Tide. There are too many shortcomings that cannot be solved."
"But the emergence of Eternal Tower found a solution to the problem."
"Eternal Tower has an ability that I don't have in the settings of the Machine Guard Clan, and that is mental resonance technology, which connects to target devices in the form of mental waves and is not affected by electromagnetic pulses, signal shielding, and other interference methods. The specific range can continue to improve with the improvement of Eternal Tower."
"This technology reminds me of a special Mechanical Legion system."
Star Network After saying this, the light and shadow in the room automatically changed, and countless tiny silver-white particles appeared in the background of the starry sky.
The sight suddenly zoomed in, and A Lan discovered that every silver-white particle was a tiny mechanical life.
"This is the Mechanical Nano-Insects legion in my conception. It is similar to the Black Tide energy particles. It serves as the universal energy source in the legion. Each particle can be regarded as a military unit."
Star Network raised his hand at this moment, and the nanorobot bugs quickly gathered in the direction of Star Network's finger.
Suddenly, one mechanical warrior after another continued to gather and form in the projection screen, quickly sweeping across the screen like a virus spreading, forming a huge legion of mechanical warriors in the blink of an eye.
Light and shadow intertwined, creating a light curtain panel in front of A Lan, with information about the mechanical warrior on it.
[Assault Warrior.]
Appearance setting: Medium-sized humanoid or quadrupedal robot, equipped with heavy armor and multi-functional weapon system.
Function: Frontal breakthrough, mid-range fire suppression.
Equipment: high-energy pulse rifle, rocket launcher, plasma knife...
Advantages: powerful firepower, high defense, adaptable to combat in various terrains.
Weaknesses: Poor mobility, easily targeted by fire coverage strikes.
At this moment, an extremely familiar figure of A Lan appeared at the end of the virtual scene.
This figure is none other than Di Nian Bully, and Evil Eye is always suspended on its back.
The virtual Black Tide is generated, and the surging Black Tide comes from the end of the scene.
Assault Warrior immediately raised his firearm, sprayed bullets from the weapon, and started intensive strafing at the Disaster Type troops generated by Black Tide.
The starry sky war is about to begin.
But what surprised A Lan was that after hitting Xie Sui, the bullet fired by Assault Warrior automatically returned as if it were alive, and then merged with Assault Warrior again to replenish its ammunition.
"One of the characteristics of Black Tide is the ability to counterattack. Mechanical Legion, which is composed of nano-mechanical insects, also has the same characteristics. Although it cannot be as perfect as Black Tide, both bullets and combat units are essentially composed of nano-mechanical insects. Even if it is damaged, it can be repaired instantly with nano-mechanical insects."
At this time, Di Nian Evil Spirit on the screen began to switch evil arms.
In the blink of an eye, Star Network thought, Mechanical Legion suddenly collapsed and melted into raging silver-white nanoparticles.
New instructions are issued, and nano Mechanical Legion is re-polymerized.
Huge four-legged mechanical behemoths were rapidly generated, sweeping across the starry sky like dominoes.
The introduction information of the new arms is presented in front of A Lan in the form of a light curtain:
War Bulwark:
Appearance: Super large war machine, equipped with multiple heavy weapons and thick armor.
Function: In war mode, it provides large-scale fire coverage and is responsible for destroying the enemy's core group.
Weapon system: giant laser cannon, missile array.
Advantages: Able to withstand a large amount of damage and hit multiple targets at the same time.
Weaknesses: Very poor maneuverability.
Star Network snapped his fingers at this moment, and intense firepower immediately rose into the sky, lighting up the starry sky.
Intensive energy cannons rained down on Black Tide's output type troops.
"This is the Mechanical Legion in my mind. I don't need to build multiple production lines for mechanical arms. I only need one production line for Mechanical Nano-Insects. Any arms I need can be built based on Mechanical Nano-Insects. It imitates Black Tide's ability to switch arms at will and the backlash after battle damage."
Star Network snapped his fingers again, and suddenly a large number of mechanical soldier templates lined up in front of A Lan in the form of light curtains.
Phantom Tracker (reconnaissance type), Instant Assassin (sniper type), Stardust Purifier (sequence 1 destruction weapon)...
"You can understand it this way, Mechanical Nano-Insects is a universal building block. I only need to set the military template, and Mechanical Nano-Insects can generate the specified military units for me. I can follow Soldier Type Repository to change military units with Time Slice at any time in a war state to cope with different types of war environments."
"Assuming that the settings in the concept can be achieved, I can have three major war advantages like Commander Black Tide. The idea is to command, switch arms at will, and fight back damage. These three characteristics."
After listening to Star Network's explanation, A Lan's expression changed from confusion to shock, and his pupils dilated slightly.
He originally thought that the idea behind Star Network was to build Mechanical Legion by quickly producing a large number of mechanical units in the early stage to speed up growth and resource acquisition.
Although the battle damage will be high, it is not a problem as long as the growth rate can cover the battle damage.
But I didn't expect that what Star Network envisioned was actually a super legion in the independent mode.
In the opinion of A Lan, this system is terrifyingly powerful.
He even doubted that Star Network would be able to create a new Scourge if it was given enough resources and time.
At this moment, Star Network couldn't help but sigh:
"There is still a big gap between this war system and the natural disaster level. The backlash cannot be unlimited like Black Tide. There is still the possibility that Mechanical Nano-Insects cannot be recovered after being destroyed. Black Tide energy particles are the most perfect basic unit."
"Nano Mechanical Legion will definitely have a system advantage against other races, but if it is defeated against Black Tide, the effects in the demonstration content cannot be applied in actual combat."
"Why?" A Lan couldn't help but frown.
"Because Mechanical Nano-Insects doesn't have the characteristics of Black Tide that gets stronger with each battle, I can only repair it through backlash, but I can't devour it and grow."
Saying that, Star Network stretched out his hand and pointed to the battlefield.
The black wave comes into contact with Silver Tide composed of Mechanical Nano-Insects.
In an instant, the black wave expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye, swallowing up the patches of silver light spots and converting them into Black Tide energy.
The confrontation between Black Tide Particles and the nano-mechanical insects showed a one-sided decline.
"This is the gap. Nano Mechanical Legion can only make up for some shortcomings in front of Black Tide, but there is still an insurmountable gap."
Hearing these words, A Lan, who was originally excited, immediately calmed down:
"Is there a solution?"
"Yes."
In the blink of an eye, Star Network's thoughts disappeared, and Black Tide and Mechanical Legion in the virtual scene disappeared.
A mechanical giant as huge as the moon appeared in the picture, suspended in the starry sky, surrounded by countless mechanical beings.
"This is a force recorded in the early days of the forum. It once suddenly descended on the Emperor's Tomb Mountain Range area and plundered a mining area. Players call it: Mechanical Overlord."
"In the introduction of Guidance, it has the power of a world-class rule, named God Metal, which can convert metal into regular metal. This is a nearly perfect material in my eyes. With the blessing of this world-class rule, although the nano-mechanical bugs created cannot stop Black Tide from swallowing it, it can significantly reduce the battle damage, and also give Mechanical Nano-Insects the ability to evolve by swallowing metal substances."
Star Network finished speaking, and the virtual screen on the wall switched to a scene of rolling mountains.
In the dark night sky, silver clouds appeared, and hundreds of millions of Mechanical Nano-Insects formed a huge cluster.
Each nanobug is smaller than dust, shining with metallic luster under the moonlight, like a flowing galaxy.
As they approached the rolling mountains, the clouds suddenly dispersed and turned into countless tiny points of light, pouring down like heavy rain.
Nanobug swarms cover the surface of the mountains, like a layer of flowing mercury, quickly seeping into the cracks in the rocks.
All ores containing metallic substances, whether iron ore buried deep underground or copper ore exposed on the surface, will quickly disappear under the devouring of nanoworms.
The rolling mountains collapsed at a speed visible to the naked eye. During this period, the rocks disintegrated and the soil became soft, as if they were being hollowed out bit by bit by invisible giant hands.
Wherever the nano-worm swarm passes, only gray-white residue is left behind, which is the waste material after the ore has been completely stripped away.
The Mechanical Nano-Insects swarm simulated by Star Network is like a group of hungry locusts, greedily devouring all metals, even the trace metal elements in the mountain.
In a short period of time, the originally majestic mountains became riddled with holes, like a giant beast that had been hollowed out.
After the nanoworm swarm finished devouring it, it regrouped into a silver cloud and flew towards the next target.
All that was left was a piece of Deathly Stillness desolation and a completely hollowed-out mountain, as if it had experienced a blanketing and ferocious fire strike.
Star Network continued at this time:
"Although it cannot swallow all substances like Black Tide, God Metal can give Mechanical Nano-Insects the rule-level ability to swallow metal substances to grow. The enemy's weapons, armor... all metal substances can become nutrients for the Mechanical Legion to become stronger as he fights."
"Theoretically, except for natural disaster-level forces such as Black Tide and Insect Tide, I can generate a restrained war system to fight against any currently known forces."
A Lan was extremely shocked and at the same time, his expression suddenly became serious:
"Star Network, it seems we have a clear goal."
As he spoke, A Lan glanced at Mechanical Overlord, who was suspended above the starry sky in the screen and looked as huge as the moon.
"Don't worry, the gap in combat power between us and Mechanical Overlord is too big. It is a demigod-level powerhouse. We still have a long way to go before we want to challenge it."
"In the future, the development of the Moon Eclipse Clan will still revolve around the Astral Veins combination, Body Tempering level, and Monster Soul. These three core systems, even if I am in the independent mode, I will use these three core systems to create in the future. Mechanical Legion, I hope to combine the idea of nano-Mechanical Legion with the characteristics of Monster Soul to give nano-mechanical insects more possibilities. Only with the support of God Metal, a world-class rule, there is still an insurmountable gap between me and Black Tide."
"Only by adding Star Vein System can I have a fighting chance... But at this stage, there is no function that can combine the external system with Star Vein System... But no matter what, the concept of the Mechanical Legion will be one of my core growth directions in the future."
After saying that, Star Network looked at A Lan:
"You don't need to report to me in the future. If you have any ideas, you can communicate with me directly in the live broadcast room. I will be there at any time."
"Yes." A Lan nodded respectfully. In his heart, Star Network was always the elder and his mentor as he grew up.
The projection of Star Network dispersed at this time, and the room returned to the virtual scene surrounded by stars.
A Lan walked towards the game warehouse at this time, ready to enter the game and continue fighting.
After ending the conversation with Star Network, he already had a clear hunting target.
Mechanical Overlord, wait for us!
