Chapter 1239
With the strength of the Holy Dragon city’s cultivators, in addition to the resources they had brought along, this mission was actually very easy. No wonder the cultivators were in such a good mood, as if they were going on a vacation.
As for eating and sleeping in the open during the journey, it was just a piece of cake for the cultivators of Lou Cheng!
The pattern of war was not fixed. This time, Holy Dragon City intended to use the native forces to carry out a long-term war.
Although the Holy Dragon City was powerful, the floating city’s strength was not simple, either. The chances of defeating it in a short time were pathetically low.
Once the floating city made its judgment and determined that the Holy Dragon City had the ability to overturn their rule, they would definitely use all means available to them to annihilate the Holy Dragon City cultivators!
Any enemy with high-tech weapons should not be underestimated, because if they wanted to, they could destroy the world at any time!
If that was the case, the situation of the Holy Dragon City cultivators would also become very dangerous. It was very likely that they would be dragged down by the enemy to die together!
Moreover, the complete destruction of the invading world would not be of much benefit to Tang Zhen. It was definitely not the result he wanted.
From the very beginning, he had already decided to completely disrupt the balance of power in this world. He wanted the abandoned and the citizens to fight each other, and the Holy Dragon City would obtain everything it needed in the chaos.
If the abandoned people were successful, they would obtain a new life. This could be considered as Tang Zhen’s reward.
Therefore, an invasion didn’t necessarily have to kill the enemy head-on. Using others as tools and hiding behind the scenes to control the overall situation was also a good way.
From the moment the Holy Dragon City cultivators stepped into this world, the invasion of this world had already begun!
Inside the monster City.
Tang Zhen searched for traces of the citizen leader along the way. Finally, he locked onto his exact location and rapidly headed there.
He was not far from the center of the monster City. There were tall, strange-shaped metal buildings all around him, and he could see mechanical guardians appearing from time to time, wandering around the monster City.
These mechanical guards varied in size. One of the mechanical guards that looked like a Spider was particularly large. It was more than 50 meters tall, and when it walked, it looked like a Hill.
When the mechanical Guardian passed by, Tang Zhen hid in the corner of the building and observed it very seriously.
Tang Zhen could sense a trace of a special aura from this giant mechanical Guardian. This was also the reason why he specially stopped to observe.
After a few minutes, Tang Zhen’s figure soared into the sky and directly landed on the head of the giant mechanical spider. He took out the soul devouring saber and slashed down.
Before the giant spider could react, the soul devouring blade had already pierced into its head, forcibly opening a huge gap in the metal shell, revealing the dense metal wires inside.
Tang Zhen leaped and entered the giant spider’s body before starting to wreak havoc.
The mechanical Guardian that was under attack immediately went berserk. Its huge body rampaged through the monster City, and many metal buildings along the way were completely destroyed.
“BOOM!”
After destroying another metal building, the spider-shaped mechanical Guardian collapsed to the ground, sparks constantly flashing on the surface of its body.
Shattered pieces of metal flew in all directions. Tang Zhen’s figure rushed out of the mechanical Guardian’s body and landed on the broken building at the side. After which, he slowly opened his palm.
A five-colored crystal appeared and floated in his palm, emitting a mesmerizing light.
This was a source stone that had been cut and processed, and it contained a large amount of source power. The monster City had used a special method to turn it into the energy core of this giant mechanical Guardian.
Due to the special creation ability of the world’s origin, this mechanical Guardian already had a trace of spirituality, and it could be regarded as a special mechanical life.
At this moment, the world’s origin source in its body had been taken away by Tang Zhen, so the mechanical Guardian was naturally dead!
Tang Zhen’s face revealed a trace of satisfaction as he kept the origin stone into his storage space. This was because his guess had been confirmed. There was indeed a large number of origin stones in the monster City.
There might be origin stones in the bodies of the mechanical guardians. The only difference was the size.
Obviously, the monster City was not just a cold metal monster, but also an attempt to turn the robots here into a special existence with life through the influence of the origin stone!
To Tang Zhen, this place was a huge treasure vault!
Tang Zhen glanced at the mechanical Guardian that had been completely scrapped. He no longer hesitated and swiftly ran toward a tall metal building.
The building looked like a stick of candied Haws. On the top of the straight metal pillar, there were huge metal balls every ten meters, and the surface was constantly flashing.
The citizen leader and the others had entered this building and had been staying there for a long time.
Tang Zhen stepped into the building with the door opened. He discovered that it was extremely spacious inside. With the help of the fluorescent light on the wall, he could see that there was nothing inside the building except for a metal pillar that led to the ground.
The civilian leader who had entered this place earlier had long disappeared.
After searching all around, Tang Zhen finally found a trace on the ground. It seemed that this place had been opened by someone before!
Tang Zhen used his mental energy to sense it and confirmed that this was the hidden entrance. The question was, how would he enter?
Tang Zhen started the [ all-purpose electronic kit ] and began to scan the surroundings in an attempt to find a way to enter this place instead of using violence to destroy it. This was to prevent the monster City from retaliating!
The results of the scan showed that the mobile application had never disappointed him, and it was the same this time.
Following the instructions, Tang Zhen extended his hand and groped the surrounding floor for a while. Very quickly, he stopped at a fist-sized spot. After which, he extended his hand and pressed down with all his might.
A transparent operating panel that was running appeared, prompting him to enter the password.
Of course, Tang Zhen didn’t know what the password was, but he could crack it through the mobile application.
He skillfully operated the mobile application and the password of the entrance was quickly cracked. Soon, a deep passage appeared in front of him, which seemed to be unfathomable.
Tang Zhen leaped in and continued to advance along the dark tunnel. He was getting further and further away from the ground.
After walking for a distance, the wreckage of the armed robots began to appear in the passage. There were also obvious traces of battle in the surroundings, but there was nothing else.
Tang Zhen observed for a moment before continuing forward. In the end, he saw a badly mutilated corpse of a citizen that was casually thrown at the edge of the passageway.
On his remaining limbs, there were some metal parts, which were obviously taken from the armed robot and then assembled into a weapon similar to power armor.
Beside the corpses of the citizens, there were also the remains of a few incomparably exquisite mechanical creatures. Compared to the giant mechanical guardians that Tang Zhen had killed, these small mechanical creatures were undoubtedly more perfect!
As for the origin stones inside these mechanical creatures, they had already been dug out and taken away. It was obvious that this was the doing of the citizen leader and the others.
