Volume 4: Xuanyuan King Chapter 9: Mechanical Tribe
The main continent of Yanji Continent.
As the highest-level combat area within the control range of the 026 Barracks Base, it is filled with powerful warriors and is extremely dangerous. A black flying saucer is flying at sub-light speed.
After the Gold Rift Squad's spaceship arrived at the main continent, they obviously had to be more cautious.
"In the cave palace 470 million kilometers away, there is a team of aliens stationed. There are five immortal gods and tens of thousands of alien warriors. There is an immortal who has been granted the title of Marquis in the team."
After a moment.
"There is an E9-class spaceship 490 million kilometers away, with three immortal gods and 62 alien realm masters on board. According to the conversations of those alien realm masters, they just fought with the demon camp, causing great losses. There is also an immortal marquis in their team."
Inside the spaceship lounge.
Marquis Liejin presented all the information obtained by the detection equipment in conjunction with the "star map" projection of the main continent of Yanji Continent. Every time a red dot appeared, his intelligent life would narrate the intelligence information obtained.
"…The leader of the team is a Fenghou immortal god."
"…The leader of the team is a Fenghou immortal god."
The veteran members of the Gold Rift Squad have become accustomed to this, but unlike their previous ease, they are now obviously more alert.
After all, here, there is always the danger of being attacked and killed.
Liejin Hou looked at Lin Yan and asked, "Xuanyuan, did you see anything?"
Lin Yan narrowed his eyes slightly: "We have only been in the main continent of Yanji Continent for 6 days, and we have discovered more than 130 teams, whether they are alien teams or human teams. According to the detection content, each team has immortal gods."
Marquis Liejin nodded.
"Yes." He sighed, "You can also see from the detailed description on the star map that in the main continent of Yanji Continent, among the immortal gods, the immortal military lords account for about two-thirds, the immortal marquises account for about one-third, and there are very few kings."
"The proportion of immortals who have been granted titles is so high that in a team of three or five immortal gods, there must be someone who has been granted titles. A team without a title of title simply cannot survive in the Yanjizhu Continent."
Lin Yan nodded.
The high ratio of immortals who have been granted titles of nobility means that there must be many teams with immortals who have been granted titles of nobility. In this situation, other immortal teams that have not been granted titles of nobility have only two choices: either to operate in other less dangerous areas, or to immediately join up with other allies to at least ensure that there are immortals who have been granted titles of nobility in the team!
Only in this way can you increase your chances of survival, otherwise you will be slaughtered by the team with the title of marquis. No matter who you are, no one wants to be slaughtered.
Become a marquis!
They possess immortal bodies, and it is rare for marquises to die in fights with each other, unless one of them has extremely high attainments in "soul attack". Otherwise, even a top marquis like "Marquis Liejin" would have to burn his immortal divine power to kill a junior marquis.
Generally speaking, no one would be willing to burn divine power easily.
In fact.
Many members of the Gold-Splitting Team had joined in the past because of similar situations. The Gold-Splitting Team has two immortal gods who have been granted the title of marquis, including a "Gold-Splitting Marquis" who has reached the peak of the marquis level. It is considered a very strong team in the Yanjizhu Continent.
Liejin Hou smiled and said, "But fortunately, the detection equipment we use is very high-end, which can block other people's detection. The aliens can't find us at all, so we can make arrangements calmly."
They searched carefully for the enemy, and after only four hours, they identified their target.
…
In the vast desert, in an ancient underground palace.
There are some ancient sacrificial patterns on the rock walls inside the palace. There are faint fluctuations of laws on the patterns, which have survived billions of years without being completely destroyed. There are many such underground palaces in the Yanji Continent, which can be called a great "wonder".
In a side hall.
There were three mechanical people gathered. Their bodies seemed to be made of metal and they looked very similar. At first glance, they looked like three metal men, sitting on three alloy chairs respectively.
"Haha, you are worthy of being the Immortal Marquis. You have a lot of assets. Captain Kenrati, thanks to you this time, we were able to wipe out the team led by the alien Immortal Marquis." One of the mechanical people grinned.
Another member of the Mechanical Clan echoed, "Compared to us Mechanical Clan, those alien races are so inferior in technology that they can't detect our detection signals at all. After we successfully deploy, even if they are immortal, they can only sit and wait for death."
They laughed and seemed very relaxed.
Sitting among them was a member of the mechanical clan named "Kenrati". He was the captain of their team and an immortal god of the initial level of marquis. He had a layer of dark green armor on his body, which embodied the industrial beauty of the mechanical clan.
"Although the alien immortal has only just reached the title of marquis, he already possesses an immortal body. I also paid a great price, but considering the military merits and treasures I obtained, it is completely worth it." Kenrati shook his head, "But the strength of our legion has been greatly damaged. It is indeed time to return to the God's Base and repair and replenish our strength after returning."
Every member of the mechanical tribe can actually be called a mechanical empire.
The strength of the legions under their command is directly related to themselves. When their strength is greatly damaged, it is naturally not suitable for them to continue to venture into the Yanji Continent.
…
At a distance of 460 million kilometers.
A black UFO spacecraft is flying in the void.
In the lounge.
Liejinhou's detector formed a three-dimensional projection in mid-air, which was the conversation scene between the three powerful mechanical clan members.
The people present were familiar with the common language of the mechanical race, and Lin Yan had even learned the languages and scripts of all the major ethnic groups in the universe.
"This is a big fish." Qian took a deep breath.
Binghe said coldly: "The mechanical race can be regarded as the most valuable enemy in the extraterritorial battlefield, but it also means it is extremely dangerous."
Lin Yan was very clear about this.
Unlike enemies of other groups, the value of the spoils is relatively limited, especially for the Zerg Queen, who is very difficult to deal with. Although the Zerg corpses are of good value, it is difficult to make up for the losses caused.
The Mechanical Clan excels at manufacturing and their technological prowess far exceeds that of any other ethnic group. Their strength lies in their Mechanical Empire.
Whether it is a mechanical puppet or some mechanical weapons, the cost may not be high within the mechanical clan, but it is extremely popular among the human race and can be sold at a very high price.
Take Lin Yan’s top-level E-class spaceship for example. It can be easily sold for one or two thousand Hunyuan units, which is nearly ten times the price of a top-level E-class spaceship made by humans!
Therefore, if one could really kill a team of mechanical race, the benefits gained would far exceed those of teams of other races.
"It seems like they have just been through a great battle and their strength has been greatly damaged. Should we take action?" King Kong's eyes lit up.
"The mechanical race has no souls... If they really plan to eat them, I'm afraid Huanfeng and I won't be able to play a big role. After all, our capabilities in telekinetic weapons are limited." Qin said softly.
In fact, every illusionist knows how to control telekinetic weapons, but everyone has their own specialties. While they are proficient in illusions, they are naturally not very good at telekinetic weapons.
Liejinhou nodded, looked at the projection screen, frowned, and thought deeply.
Judging from the situation at the scene, this mechanical team did show obvious signs of having experienced combat. If it was true as they said that the strength of their legion had been severely damaged, this would definitely be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Even though the mechanical team only has one Marquis of primary level, and their physical strength is far inferior to his, in a life-and-death fight... the mechanical clan has always used various means, and the mechanical army is strong enough that even ordinary immortal gods may be seriously injured or even killed.
But if successful, the harvest this time is likely to reach more than 10 million Hunyuan units. Such a high number is enough to make Liejin Hou excited.
Liejin Hou looked at Lin Yan and asked, "Xuanyuan, what do you think?"
If it were in the past, he would either decide on his own or discuss it with the deputy captain "Qian". After spending some time with Lin Yan, Marquis Liejin obviously values Lin Yan's opinion more.
How could Lin Yan see it? He stood and watched.
"Captain, it's up to you to decide." He shook his head and smiled, without offering any further opinions.
After all, he was just a passer-by and was not going to influence their own team's battle plan too much. At most, he would lend a hand when they encountered danger.
Marquis Liejin's gaze gradually became firm.
"Fortune and honor come from danger. Our Gold-Splitting Team will eat this fish!"
He said firmly: "There are two immortals in our team, Qian and I. Although Xuanyuan is not yet a marquis, his strength is above that of an ordinary marquis, and his body movements are even better. Even if the enemy has some trump cards, they will not be our opponent."
Qian licked his lips, his eyes sparkling: "If we get rid of them, we will definitely gain a lot. Isn't this the purpose of our coming to the battlefield outside the domain?"
"Um!"
The eyes of a group of immortal gods were filled with fighting spirit.
If they were placed in the human territory, they would be powerful figures who could dominate a star field, and even reach high positions in the universe country. However, they chose to stay in the battlefield outside the domain and live a precarious life.
It is precisely because... they still have a fiery heart full of desire, eager to become stronger, eager to fight against more powerful people!
If they were scared by a small team of mechanical people, they would have retired, packed up their things and returned home long ago.
Liejin Hou stood up and ordered, "Come closer!"
"Let's kill this mechanical team."
whoosh!
This black flying saucer-shaped spaceship was getting closer and closer to the location of the powerful mechanical clan members.
…
The three mechanical immortals were still talking.
"After a few more days of rest, we will leave here and return to the God's Base." Captain Kenrati said.
"Yes, Captain."
On the surface, the three of them were chatting, but in reality...they were communicating through the virtual world of the Mechanical Clan.
"The enemy's large detector is more advanced than ours. Fortunately, the micro detector we purchased can only detect a range of 20 kilometers, but its detection accuracy is extremely high. The enemy has already detected it when it detected us." Kenrati said solemnly, "The enemy must be very strong to be able to use such a high-end detector. It should be a big fish."
A Mechanical Immortal was a little worried: "Will they lure the Immortal King Feng? The traps we set up can't deal with the Immortal King Feng."
"There are only about a thousand Immortal Kings in the entire Yanjizhu Continent. It's not easy to meet them. If we really meet them, we can only consider ourselves unlucky given our strength." Kenrat's eyes were shining. "As long as they are not Immortal Kings, it will be difficult to escape once they jump into our net."
The other two Mechanical Immortals nodded upon hearing this.
What they, the Mechanical Clan, are best at is actually positional warfare. They are not suitable to travel around like the strong men from other clans. After all, those strong men rely on their own strength. As long as they carry weapons, they can exert their strongest strength.
The mechanical race needs to arrange their equipment in advance, and it is difficult to exert their power in a hurry.
"The enemy hasn't left yet."
"The detection has been locked on us." Kenrati said solemnly, "Although we have a micro-detector that can detect the enemy, the micro-detector can only detect the enemy, with a detection range of only 20 kilometers - unless the enemy is only 20 kilometers away from us, we can't detect it at all."
The main function of a micro-detector is to conduct precise exploration of the secrets of the universe. It can only serve as a warning in extraterritorial battlefields. If you want to rely on a micro-detector to find the enemy's position, that is wishful thinking.
A distance of 20 kilometers is not a distance at all for an immortal god who can travel tens of thousands of kilometers at a time.
"We cannot determine the enemy's exact location. We can only respond to changes with constancy. Everyone should be vigilant. The enemy may attack at any time." Kenlati said.
"Understood." The other two mechanical immortals responded.
…
The spacecraft of the Rift Gold Team continued to approach the opponent, and the detector was constantly monitoring the opponent's movements.
The three-dimensional projection in the lounge was broadcasting the enemy's every move in the underground palace far away, and nothing unusual was found.
When the distance approaches 300 million kilometers.
"Hmm?" Lin Yan frowned slightly.
The detection equipment of Marquis Liejin is only worth 5 million Hunyuan units, which may be considered top-notch among the immortal gods who have been granted the title of Marquis. It allows the Liejin team to take the initiative in most cases. However, although micro-detectors are rare, it is not surprising that the opponent is a mechanical race and is equipped with them. It is inevitable that the detection signal will be detected.
But how abnormal is Lin Yan’s large detector?
With his authority and super low discounts, he spent 2 billion points on the purchase. After reaching the search range with a radius of 300 million kilometers, he naturally and easily discovered the detection signal of the other party's micro-detector.
Lin Yan's eyes flashed, and he had a vague guess. The detector focused on detecting the surrounding situation. Although it was difficult for the mechanical equipment to detect it, some peculiarities were still found.
"The mechanical race is really cunning." Lin Yan said inwardly.
This is obviously a trap.
The other party dared to do this, which was obviously due to their courage and skill. If they just broke in like this and were surrounded, even if the Rift Gold Team was not completely captured, they would definitely suffer heavy losses.
He thought about it and looked around at the team members.
They were eager to fight and extremely focused, and even smeared the potions prepared by Yunyue on some spare weapons in case of emergency.
Lin Yan thought for a moment and was still in a relatively calm mood. He even had a plant life "Konota Tree Spirit" that had been cultivated to the king level, so he was not too worried about the trap in front of him.
The distance keeps shrinking, 10 million kilometers, 8 million kilometers, 6 million kilometers...
"Slow down and stop." Marquis Liejin ordered, "Everyone, move forward!"
The spacecraft stopped quickly.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
One by one, the veterans quickly rushed out through the cabin door, and Lin Yan followed them out.
"Everyone, don't be impatient." Marquis Liejin pointed to the desert below, "Let's launch an attack first to consume their energy."
"Um!"
Everyone stretched out their hands, and suddenly the surging immortal divine power began to gather between their hands. The divine power continued to gather, becoming stronger and stronger, and finally formed a ball of light of various colors. The intensity of the divine power in the ball of light continued to increase and rise.
This is pure force!
Even Lin Yan is the same. He is also an "immortal god". This is not the first time he has done such a thing during this period.
In fact, this move is a bit similar to the Vulcan Source Crystal. The Vulcan Source Crystal is compressed to a state denser than the "Immortal Crystal" and then suddenly detonated. Of course, the technical content is too high.
Even if he were crowned an immortal god, he would not be able to compress a crystal of the "Fire God Source Crystal" with such density and without exploding by himself.
“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”
One after another, figures rushed forward like lightning and reached the desert in the blink of an eye. One after another, balls of immortal divine power turned into dazzling streams of light and rushed directly into the underground palace deep underground.
