Chapter 1805 Metal Shell
In the vast and desolate desert, on top of a huge weird metal building.
Humanoid creatures with bodies made of special metals stood in two rows, surrounding a six-winged being.
Some of them have a huge black metal hat on their heads with two huge curved hook blades on the edge. Hanging from the head to the heels is a broad tail with a hundred feet, like a giant weapon lying on the back of the person.
Some heads are like iron barrels, without any facial features, and completely black, like a crudely made, unformed snowman.
Some of them have slender bodies, but have more than a dozen tentacles extending from their backs, with red light flashing at the ends of the tentacles.
These are the demons of the mechanical civilization.
Right in front of them, on a simple throne made of white stone, sat a humanoid creature with six wings on its back.
He looked no different from those demons, except that his white wings looked like those of a living organism.
Sitting upright on the throne, his eyes, which had been tightly closed, suddenly opened slowly.
"A combat unit's machine, codenamed [Gui], was destroyed."
Of course, he did not address the Demon God Gui in the same way as humans did. In order to make it easier to understand, he had to assimilate the language of the mechanical life form with that of humans.
On the left side in front of him, a demon with a slender body and six black sword handles inlaid with red energy crystals floating behind him turned his head.
“Does it need to be recreated?”
Liu Yi said calmly, "It's not necessary. Without the core, what is recreated is just a useless shell. Being defeated by the surface people means that it has lost its value as a combat machine."
On the right side of the six wings is a demon with eight octopus-like mechanical tentacles behind him, with sharp blades at the end of the tentacles, and his lower body hidden in skirt-like armor.
"Those people on the surface actually took the initiative to attack our engineering troops. This is really troublesome!"
"Let's kill them all, so that the progress of our project will not be affected."
The demon on the left said: "We don't have time to play with those low-civilization creatures. Destroying them will only waste our time and energy."
The demon on the right whispered, "Extermination of insects?"
The demons seemed to not care about this and were just waiting for the six wings on the throne to give orders.
The six wings seemed to be smiling.
"Even bugs can have their uses! These arrogant and ignorant guys may be able to help us."
He spread his hands and the sound spread all around.
"Come add some fuel to the fire!"
……
Mu Yan’s shadow space.
She sat quietly on a metal box, which was disassembled from a mechanical life form.
In the shadow space, various parts of mechanical life forms are placed everywhere.
In recent times, Lu Keren has used this place as a studio to study the structure of mechanical life forms and analyze their materials and core modules.
Zhang Yi is also here. Lu Keren is responsible for dismantling the demon machine. The divine machine can decompose all materials without causing any damage to them.
Without this capability, it would be nearly impossible to analyze this particular metallic material.
On the other side, Yang Xinxin used the supercomputer in her hand to connect to the circuit boards in the mechanical life form - probably something similar.
The operating rules of mechanical life forms are similar to those of human mechanical equipment, but not exactly the same. However, the operating rules of all things involve the flow of energy, and there is no difference in this respect.
For this purpose, Lu Keren specially helped Yang Xinxin to modify the supercomputer and connected a new interface so that it could invade the "circuit board" of the mechanical life form.
As for Zhang Yi, he couldn't actually help much and just came here to rest.
He sat not far from Mu Yan, his hands crossed and his chin supported, his eyes deep, thinking about everything that might happen in the future on the land of Fremons.
Everything is unknown.
Each of these powerful and mysterious underground civilizations has a completely different level of civilization, and even their forms of existence are completely different.
There is almost no connection between the two different underground civilizations, and it is impossible to infer what the current underground civilization is based on past experience.
Zhang Yi couldn't help but wonder in his heart, how many secrets does this planet hold?
Why haven't they appeared in the tens of thousands of years since the birth of mankind?
Or maybe they have already appeared, but humans are not aware of it.
Or, are they the race of gods who guided humans to evolve rapidly in ancient times?
The more Zhang Yi thought about it, the more he felt that the world was full of secrets, and all the unknown things made him feel uneasy.
He rubbed his brows, the only thing he could be thankful for was that his current strength had already reached the level of the lowest level underground civilization warriors.
Although his ability index is probably still a little behind Neon's God of Production, the God of Japan, but if they meet again, he can guarantee that he will be invincible.
"Sure enough, in this broken world, strength is everything!"
Zhang Yi said in a deep voice.
"However, we still have to find a way to build a super fortress as soon as possible! The current goal is to reach a level that can withstand the attack of the Wuluan Empire!"
Zhang Yi set a short-term goal for himself.
At this time, Lu Keren's voice sounded in his ears: "If it really doesn't work, flying into outer space will also work! Although building a giant artificial satellite that can survive for a long time is still very difficult with the current level of technology."
"But we can try to land on the moon or even Mars. I think that day will come!"
Zhang Yi turned his head and saw Lu Keyan carrying an exoskeleton armor on his back. It was only half of his body and looked like it was worn on Lu Keyan's body. It had thick mechanical arms loaded with various complex tools.
It looks heavy, but it is very light and effortless when carried on the back.
Lu Keren was only wearing a white T-shirt. He was wiping the sweat off his face and looking at Zhang Yi with a smile.
Zhang Yi jumped up from the metal box, walked over and asked, "Are there any research results?"
Lu Keran said: "The results of the current research are as expected and really shocking!"
In front of her, the body of the Demon God Gui had been disassembled into pieces. A large number of red energy crystals were arranged in many rows on the table. At a quick glance, there were no less than twenty pieces!
Zhang Yi said in surprise: "There are only five on the body of a super-large mechanical life form. And it has so many!"
Lu Keren picked up a palm-sized energy crystal and said, "This thing can be loaded onto a machine. I already know how to use it."
Zhang Yi spread his hands and said, "Then your mecha's power supply will be fine in the future!"
"However, what I am most concerned about is its weapon system."
The demon uses a super-era thermal weapon system, which is not a gunpowder weapon but an energy weapon.
If this technology can be developed well, it will even be enough to allow ordinary people to have strength comparable to that of powerful aliens!
Of course - if used on an alien, it can multiply the power!
"Oh, you mean weapons!"
Lu Keren picked up two weapons from the demon god, a curved blade in the shape of a scorpion's claws, and a huge hook blade in the shape of a scorpion's tail.
"The weapon system he has is very simple. There are only these two! And the attack method is extremely simple."
Lu Keran spread his hands and said, "It is to extract the energy from the red energy crystal, and then release it from the tail end of the blade like firing a bullet!"
Zhang Yi said: "This is what we call the great way to simplicity! Superpowers are unconventional, and they gain the advantage of information gap through differences. But once the information is leaked, you will fall into a disadvantage."
"After all, superpowers are just a way to release the energy in the body!"
The human body is very magical, and its internal structure has not been fully understood until now, which is why all kinds of magical superpowers are born.
Mechanical life forms are also made by some kind of creatures. How can their manufacturing capabilities surpass those of the Creator?
Zhang Yi looked at Gui's weapon and was somewhat tempted.
"Can you transform it into something I can use? And fuse it with the Divine Refining?"
Lu Keran nodded: "Of course, that's exactly what I planned! Shenlian itself is a product of biotechnology."
"The metal material on the Demon God Gui's body cannot be manufactured by human technology. It is even many times stronger than the current Yi metal! If it is integrated into the divine refining, your attack and defense power will be greatly improved."
Zhang Yi said: "The most crucial point is that in the next battle, I may face this kind of existence again. If there is a big gap in weapons, I will suffer."
He once tried to wrap the magic chain around the Demon God Gui, but when the opponent slashed it with a knife, the magic chain really shattered like a green vine.
He took off the bracelet and handed it to Lu Keren, asking her to help merge it with the weapon of the Demon God Gui.
Lu Keren nodded. This was not a difficult task for her.
“By the way, the most interesting thing is about it!”
As Lu Keren spoke, he held up a black cube that looked like a Rubik's Cube.
"This is the energy core of the Demon God Gui. Brother, take a good look at it and see what's different about it."
Zhang Yi stared at the thing for a while and found that in the cracks of the black Rubik's Cube, there were dark red substances emitting a faint light.
"Well...it has edges and corners. It's a cube."
Zhang Yi said.
The energy core of a mechanical life form is spherical.
Lu Keren burst out laughing, "It's not that simple!"
"However," she raised the black Rubik's Cube in her hand and looked at it carefully, "I don't know what is hidden inside this thing."
Zhang Yi frowned slightly, smiled puzzledly and asked, "Isn't your ability to decompose the structure of all matter?"
Lu Keren shook his head.
"No! Brother, not all of them. For example, this one, my ability can't even work on it!"
Lu Keran held his chin with one hand, looking puzzled: "This is the most suspicious point! This is the first time that [Divine Machine Control] fails on matter."
This special material is too hard. If [Divine Machine Control] fails, then there is really nothing we can do with it.
"Ineffective?"
Zhang Yi thought for a moment and said, "It is indeed a bit strange. Doesn't this mean that the research cannot continue?"
Lu Keran spread his hands helplessly: "Theoretically, this is the case. I am still looking for the reason."
The spoils that were obtained with great effort may contain mechanical technology that will subvert the whole world, but how can we not get a glimpse of it?
This made Zhang Yi very anxious.
"Have you ever been in this situation?"
Lu Keren shook his head: "It has never happened. As long as it is a material structure, I can decompose it. I can easily decompose the core of a super-large mechanical life form."
"Maybe there is something special in it!"
"As expected of a fighter jet from a mechanical civilization! It's really different. It should have some special technology to fight against superpowers!"
Lu Keren muttered to himself.
"Technology specifically designed to combat superpowers?"
Zhang Yi took the Rubik's Cube in his hand, and suddenly he remembered that when he used the alien space to collect the remains of the demon, he felt a resistance.
His alien space can also accommodate almost all objects, except for one thing - creatures with powerful life energy.
In fact, he can now actively collect ordinary humans and some small animals.
But it is still difficult for extraordinary people to do so.
Aliens have more powerful life abilities and can resist the active collection of alien spaces.
At that time, there was indeed resistance when Zhang Yi tried to collect the remains of the demon god, but he entangled them with the divine chain and threw them in.
Now that I think about it... could it be that this core has some life reaction?
Zhang Yi looked at Lu Keyan, "What is it that your ability cannot work on?"
Lu Keran spread his hands: "A living being!"
Zhang Yi stared at the black Rubik's Cube, and a guess emerged in his mind.
"That's why I always feel that this kind of demon god has a different feeling than those ordinary mechanical life forms."
"At first, I thought it was because their technology was so advanced that they could make mechanical life forms have reactions similar to those of real organisms."
"But now it looks like this is clearly a carbon-based creature covered in the shell of a silicon-based creature!"
Lu Kenan understood what Zhang Yi meant. She widened her eyes in surprise and stared at the black Rubik's Cube and said, "Brother, are you saying that this is actually the body of a mechanical civilization creature?"
"That's probably it. Maybe this is a cockpit? No, I don't think that makes sense. If that were the case, they should have a way to escape. There's no need to build a humanoid outer armor."
"So the greater possibility is that they abandoned their carbon-based bodies. Then they must have looked a lot like their mechanical shells in the past."
Zhang Yi held the black Rubik's Cube in his hand, and an idea came to his mind.
He looked at Yang Xinxin, who was concentrating on deciphering the source code of the mechanical life form, and waved at her.
"Xinxin, shoot an arrow at this thing!"
Since it is a living being, Yang Xinxin's abilities should be able to play a role.
