Chapter 762: Doomsday Fortress! Transformation! Departure!
The efficiency of the hub remains as high as ever.
Thanks to the help of the small armillary sphere left by Juzi, which recorded the coordinate system of the stars, Lao Jiang obtained the specific coordinates of the center of the universe three days after the start of the rescue expedition.
This coordinate is the precise location calculated based on the current movement trajectory of the Doomsday Fortress.
According to the repeated calculations of the Central Center, the Doomsday Fortress may reach this location in a week, but getting the coordinates does not mean that Lao Jiang can jump over accurately.
The biggest problem with this jump is that the situation in the center of the universe is currently beyond Jiang’s control.
According to the information he learned in the Alpha World, the destructive will of the Lord of the Wilderness was originally born from the extinguished cosmic furnace. In other words, that must be the area where the power of the Lord of the Wilderness first radiated.
It is the source of the dark stars and also the base camp of the wilderness monsters.
If Lao Jiang jumped over rashly, he would probably be besieged by a large number of great demons. Frankly speaking, with Lao Jiang's current strength, it would be difficult for him to do anything in such a situation.
But the good news is that Jiang doesn't seem to need to fight to the death with those big demons.
He comes with a "monster disguise".
"What? You want me to go with you to the base camp of the Lord of the Desolate World in the center of the universe? Why do you have such a hateful and dangerous idea? Have I offended you in some way?
Haven't we reconciled?"
In a small manor in a beautiful and sparsely populated mountain area in the M world, next to Lao Jiang, who was lying on a recliner basking in the sun, Xiao Jiang, a demon like Aladdin's lamp surrounded by black air, was covering his face and shouting:
"I can help you disguise yourself as a demon-possessed person, and even risk my life in the Sin Abyss to protect you from the invasion of the Wasteland Lord, but you have to understand, Old Jiang! These disguises are only effective under certain circumstances.
There is no need to guess too much about how many great demons exist in the center of the universe. They are the first batch of demons born from the dark stars created by the Lord of the Wilderness.
Perhaps they all jumped out of that extinguished cosmic furnace.
With my limited skills, I am just like an ant in their eyes. I don’t know where your confidence in me comes from, but to be honest, I don’t have confidence myself.
Once I'm exposed, you're doomed.
Think carefully about it."
"I called you out and told you this plan, which means I have thought it through."
At this moment, Lao Jiang looked relaxed, holding the latest edition of Playboy magazine in his hand, but his mind was not at all on the girls posing in the magazine.
His consciousness projection was using the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree to constantly jump and shuttle through the new leaf worlds in order to check the real-time situation of the Great Rescue Expedition.
At present, after the high-level elite combat forces of the World Tree Foundation were transferred back, the contact and integration of civilizations in the 146 elite worlds were going smoothly.
Except for a dozen extremely poor and barren places, the brave civilizations in other worlds have already completed their first contact with the World Tree Consortium.
The common characteristics of these worlds are harsh environments, unimaginably harsh, and although there are civilizations in them, the vast majority are in a state of intermittent civilizational collapse, just like the wastelanders.
After all, they have all undergone the "war test" of the Alpha world. Under the ravages of the invincible iron army, it is unlikely that they can maintain a complete form of civilization inheritance.
They were struggling to pass on their heritage and fight their own battles in the ruins of a collapsed civilization.
The best part is that the people in these 146 elite worlds all knew about the Wasteland Lord and the world-destroying disaster, so after the World Tree Consortium appeared, it didn’t take too much time to win their favor.
Most of them are very sensible, after all, their demands and interests are the same.
After Lao Jiang's subordinates demonstrated their fighting power and terrifying resources, they agreed to merge into the World Tree Consortium and join the Savior Army to prepare for the final battle of the stars.
The fastest-moving civilization had been relocated to a certain unmanned spiritual world controlled by Old Jiang, and began preparation training. Relying on the different speeds of time, Boss Jiang had plenty of time to complete their training.
However, there are also people who do not know the overall situation.
For example, the world that Senior Sister Chenyu jumped into.
It is a truly barren place with barren mountains and bad water, trees that eat people and insects that explode. According to Chenyu herself, all life in that world, whether it is plants or animals, is born and exists for only one purpose, which is to kill something.
It is impossible to expect a civilization that survives in such a horrific environment to have any sense of common sense.
They are very xenophobic and even unwilling to have too much communication with the soldiers of the Savior Army. It’s not that they think the World Tree Consortium is bragging when they say they want to fight the Wild Lord.
Those savages with extremely strong fighting power simply doubt the fighting power of the World Tree Consortium warriors.
Well, they have the right to doubt.
After all, they were a group of abnormally fierce guys who could break the steel neck of Eden Intelligent with their bare hands. Old Jiang did not tolerate this kind of thorny world and directly struck back with a heavy punch.
I sent Liu Hui and her crazy grandfather to deal with those ignorant bastards. Aren't you good at fighting? Come, compete with the immortal body of the demon saint in the sea of blood and evil.
Let you use both hands and feet.
With the help of the old demon saint's patrol, good news should come from there soon.
Things are generally on the right track, and Jiang no longer needs to get involved in the rest. This is the advantage of being a boss. You only need to put forward a program, and your subordinates with extremely strong execution capabilities will push forward specific matters.
So after putting his mind at ease, Lao Jiang began to ponder the remnants of the Alpha world. This is also the reason why the inner demon Xiao Jiang was called out.
But Lao Jiang was eager to take the risk, while Xiao Jiang was a little timid. He did not behave like a devil who was born in chaos and was always pursuing chaos.
Instead, he is more like a wise man who is thoughtful and thoughtful.
"Don't be a coward. It's useless."
Boss Jiang retracted some of his spiritual thoughts, glanced at the timid Xiao Jiang next to him, and said:
"It's already been decided. We'll go out and test it tomorrow. Don't worry. If I'm sure I can't hide it, I won't volunteer to die."
"What if we can hide it?"
Xiao Jiang rolled his eyes and asked in a low voice:
"Will you drag me into doing something dangerous again, like taking the cosmic furnace away in advance?"
"Are you stupid?"
Lao Jiang replied bluntly:
"You and I share a common memory, you know how big that furnace is, and Juzi said that thing is in a special space, how can I take it away?
I'm not saying anything bad about you, but aren't you a little too cowardly?"
"Isn't this all your fault?"
Xiao Jiang complained sadly:
"Since I manifested my demonic body, have I ever done anything that a demon should do? You've been bullying me , and now you think I'm a coward.
If I were really so bold, how could I have survived until today? Didn't I learn to protect myself under your coercion? "
"Alright, alright, stop repeating this. It makes me sound like I'm bullying you."
Boss Jiang waved his hand and glanced into the house. Ruyue, who had just finished her nap, was walking out in her bathrobe. He winked at Xiao Jiang, who whooshed back into Boss Jiang's sea of consciousness.
Obviously, Lao Jiang did not intend to let Ruyue know that he was going to the center of the universe.
The secretary is a worrisome person. Ever since she revealed her true feelings in Qingqiu City last time, she has become more and more attached to Lao Jiang. She also has a lot of things to do, such as coordinating the allocation of various resources of the World Tree Foundation.
These are all important matters, so let her worry less.
——
On the Alpha World side, the entire Doomsday Fortress was now rushing forward at top speed in the dark star field. The thirteen overlapping metal worlds, plus the bases plundered and transformed by the Great War Group, gathered like star rings to protect the fortress itself.
They are connected through magnetic fields and energy and form a whole.
Constantly opening short-range wormholes during superluminal travel and making multiple leaps forward.
This method of advancement is also helpless. The cosmic constants and rules in the dark star field have been greatly distorted, and it is basically impossible to make a precise long-distance jump.
Only this "running and jumping" method can achieve high-speed running in the entire fortress world.
The mechanical life forms didn't even pay attention to the great demons blocking their way. If they could dodge around them, they would never stop. If they couldn't get around them, they would use their super firepower to cluster and shoot at them, breaking up the formation of the demons and continuing to charge forward.
They didn't even waste time finishing off the seriously injured big demons.
At extremely high speeds, except for some big demons with the ability to shuttle, most of the Wasteland Lord's vanguards could not keep up with the speed of the Doomsday Fortress, it was like a perfect "train driving".
The facts were indeed as Jiang had expected.
After the last meeting, the Mechanical Sage used the space shielding device created by the Alpha World itself, plus his own understanding of the power of time travel, to block the possibility of Lao Jiang traveling to the Alpha World.
The Council of Leaders has also issued the order for the final battle.
All the combat power of the entire mechanical world has been mobilized, and even the never-ending battle for mechanical advancement in the Thirteen Rings has been temporarily suspended.
The top eighteen war regiments and their affiliated high-level war regiments have been dispersed to their respective small fortress strongholds. They will serve as the first wave of assault firepower, completing their appearance and farewell in the doomsday decisive battle.
What is strange is that the lower-level battle groups and those low-level mechanical life forms were not arranged in the outer firepower layer, but were evenly distributed in the thirteen rings of the Doomsday Fortress according to factions of a certain size.
Except for the first and second rings, the other rings on the land are filled with various machines.
At this moment, the war network has been transformed into a most efficient combat system, and all its authority has been concentrated in the hands of the Mechanical Sage. It seems that it is going to make a big move.
The innermost furnace of the Alpha World was still burning fiercely, even more violently than before. It seemed to have sensed the arrival of its mission, and it generously injected its energy into all the thrusters of the Doomsday Fortress.
Mechanical life forms are not in the habit of singing war songs.
Otherwise, with their majestic fighting posture before us, their battle songs will surely resound throughout the entire dark star field.
Although they do not sing, every layer of the war network is filled with data streams of billions of machines chanting the name of the Mecha-God and shouting out the will of the Sage.
This is also like another form of war cry and vocalization.
Countless data streams merged together, forming an unimaginable wave in the data world, just like waves of the sea, beating against the lofty will at the center of the data network.
They roared to express the passion of war.
They neigh to express their anticipation for the final moment.
They pray that their death will record the power and miracle of machinery.
Various emotions that did not seem to be mechanical surged in the form of numbers, but fear was definitely not one of them.
The Mechanical Sage stood on top of his own moving pyramid, surrounded by crystal dragons. In the light of the flames burning near the furnace, the Sage looked straight ahead.
It is like a cold and indifferent god, with nothing else in its eyes except its target.
There were fewer and fewer stars in the surrounding dark star field, and all that could be seen along the way were the embers of stars that had burned out in nearly eternity and shattered into ashes.
Just like weathered corpses, they float in this most ancient sea of stars.
They existed even before the birth of the Lord of the Wasteland. They were like the ancient onlookers and indifferent recorders of this starry sky. Even after their own bodies were shattered and the stars were destroyed, they still watched the story of destruction and despair.
But the ashes in these empty star fields could not catch the sage's attention for even a moment.
In that invisible data world, its data consciousness body is glowing, like a lit torch, shining in the melting pot of the Doomsday Fortress.
It was it that designed all this, it was it that promoted all this, and now, it is time to end it all.
The wise man did not actually deceive Jiang Xia.
The existence of the Alpha World is really not the same system as the three strategies for saving the world left by the Giant. This mechanical world and the billions of creatures in the Doomsday Fortress exist and develop in order to fight back against the Lord of the Wasteland.
This civilization, which was born for war, was restarted five hundred years ago just for its destruction today.
They will use their own destruction to teach the invincible and omnipotent Lord of the Wilderness a good lesson.
"Buzz"
The last jump is over.
The dark streams of light dancing like a curtain were shattered by the Doomsday Fortress. Finally, they completed an impossible expedition. They fought their way from the edge to the center of the universe.
They came to the place where the Lord of the Wilderness descended.
In this bare star field that is like a black hole and seems to be empty, but is full of the atmosphere of desolation, countless great demons of the wasteland howl and sway out from the inky black covering nebula.
The final battle does not require any opening ceremony; it has already begun when the two finally meet in this place of origin and end.
"Buzz"
At this moment, Lao Jiang, whose figure was shrouded in demonic energy, also jumped over from outside the domain with difficulty.
He called out to the Mechanical Sage through the connection with the World Heart:
"Wait! I have something to say..."
" I appreciate your kindness, no need to say more, my good disciple, leave immediately!"
The Mechanical Sage answered him.
This was a disguised admission that the sage's previous conversation was all a lie.
What reincarnation, what rebirth program, what emotionless mechanical life, etc., this mechanical sage has been the great master Mo Jiu from the very beginning!
But this time it did not give Lao Jiang more time. Instead, in the billions of brilliant lights poured out by the firepower floating islands of the 18th War Group, it issued a Doomsday Fortress decisive battle-level order:
"Fortress of Doom! Transform! Go to battle!"
