Chapter 1600: Major Intelligent Machine Stronghold
The nature of the [Space Channel] created by Intelligent Machines and the [Space Transmission] used by Su Yu are not the same.
Su Yu's [Space Transmission] operates through the power of Spiritual Energy;
whereas the Intelligent Machines' [Space Channel] has a physical nature, utilizing the principle of wormholes.
Therefore, the time consumed by the two types of transmission is completely different.
Using Spiritual Energy for transmission often requires a long time for ultra-long-distance travel. For example, when Su Yu initially transmitted to the Talin Hub, it took a full two days;
the [Space Channel] of Intelligent Machines is different, as long as the channel is opened up, one can reach the destination instantaneously!
Of course, the resources consumed to open the channel are quite substantial though.
Thus, as soon as Su Yu and No. 3 entered the [Space Channel], they immediately arrived at the other side of the channel.
Suddenly, a giant Intelligent Machine monster appeared in Su Yu's view!
No, calling it an Intelligent Machine monster is not appropriate, what Su Yu is facing is an Intelligent Mechanical Planet.
The surface of this planet is completely covered with mechanical constructs, a sphere over 100,000 kilometers in diameter is crisscrossed with countless steel structures, various sizes and types of Intelligent Machines occupy the planet's surface, myriad lights on the planet flash one by one, turning the whole planet into a dazzling steel city floating in the universe.
Countless small Intelligent Machines hover outside the planet, forming a structure similar to Saturn's rings.
At the first sight of this planet, Su Yu was stunned. The scene before his eyes was too magnificent!
He had seen something similar before, such as the Northern Hemisphere of Grela-13, which was completely covered with Intelligent Machines.
But compared to the Northern Hemisphere of Grela-13, the Intelligent Machines here are more dense, densely covering the entire planet's surface, Su Yu couldn't even find a single empty spot!
Moreover, the Intelligent Machines on this planet are more advanced.
Grela-13 only has two Planet-level Intelligent Machines, whereas this planet undoubtedly has Stellar-level Intelligent Machines, and not just one!
However, there should not be any Nebula-level Intelligent Machines.
Even though he couldn't see them, Su Yu believed that there shouldn't be any.
If there were Nebula-level Intelligent Machines on this planet, Holy Song couldn't possibly tell him "the probability of survival is 99.5%"; instead, it would be "the probability of survival is 0%".
Moreover, if there were Nebula-level beings, Holy Song should immediately have warned him to go back at the first moment he crossed the Space Channel, instead of giving no warning at all.
Thus, it's highly likely that this Intelligent Mechanical Planet is occupied by several Stellar-level Intelligent Machines and their minions.
This should be a Crystal Blue attack stronghold, and a very important large one at that.
…
Upon seeing Su Yu arrive, the Intelligent Machines on the planet immediately went into a frenzy!
Countless Intelligent Machines instantly took flight, swarming toward him like locusts, blotting out the sky.
The Intelligent Machines never expected another carbon-based bug dared to come, and a Stellar-level one at that!
Several large beings, each with a diameter of kilometers, collectively flew up, all targeting Su Yu. These large beings are very likely the Stellar-level Intelligent Machines!
However, Su Yu was not worried.
99.5%, why be afraid?
"Truly spectacular!" Su Yu calmly praised, expressing his approval of the Intelligent Mechanical Planet.
Simultaneously, he asked Holy Song, "Holy Song, what should I do now?"
Though Su Yu is usually decisive and Holy Song has never interfered with his decisions,
in such an environment, facing a terrifying Intelligent Mechanical Planet like this, Su Yu was at a loss and needed Holy Song to make a decision.
Holy Song seemed to be collecting geographical information here.
Soon, images began to appear before Su Yu.
The images depicted a planet with stunning environmental beauty, verdant grass, lush plants, babbling streams, and large carbon-based animals joyfully running through wooded mountains.
The environment resembled the dinosaur age on Blue Star.
"Where is this?" Su Yu asked.
Holy Song replied, "An original planet in the Feige Second Star Domain, coordinates (15665, 51377), which is the planet right before you."
"This planet?" Su Yu hesitated, finding no similarity between the scenes in the images and the planet before him, which was entirely covered with Intelligent Machines, not leaving even a crack.
"Indeed, this planet, but it's an image from 30 years ago." Holy Song explained.
"Oh, I see." Su Yu nodded.
It appears that Crystal Blue Intelligence took over this planet later on, transforming a once beautiful primitive planet into a metallic monstrosity full of Intelligent Machines.
However, he may not have the time to worry about this now, so Su Yu immediately asked, "Can this be discussed later? What should I do now?"
The Intelligent Machines were flying up from the planet's surface en masse, and without reacting, he feared he'd soon be overwhelmed by them!
"You can do this…" Holy Song immediately infused a string of information into Su Yu's mind.
Su Yu's eyes suddenly shone bright!
As expected from Holy Song, truly remarkable!
