Chapter 250 Crisis! The Enemy Attacks, Mechanical City, Charge!_2
If the quality of the Mechanical City increases any further, it might just come to a standstill.
"Tsk tsk, it's getting too fat..."
Su Yu shook his head.
The Mechanical City getting heavier and heavier is a troublesome issue; the energy problem needs to be solved quickly.
Fortunately, the only problem now is that the speed has slightly decreased, from 300 meters per second to around 280, which is not a huge impact.
"Mr. Su Yu, where should we head next? To Illusion City?"
Xie Yitian saw that the City of Heavenly Punishment had been completely devoured and immediately spoke up.
Su Yu glanced at him. This guy was really proactive.
Knowing that Su Yu was going to destroy and devour his Illusion City, yet he looked eager and impatient.
"Then let's head to..."
Su Yu was about to agree with Xie Yitian.
The City of Heavenly Punishment is about five thousand kilometers away from Illusion City, much closer than from Holy Hidden City or Wind City.
Going to Illusion City first would be more efficient.
However, Su Yu thought about it for a moment and said, "Better first head towards Chairman Xiao and their people. They are migrating with millions of people, and it's a long journey with potential dangers."
Su Yu planned to first transfer those millions of migrating people into the Mechanical City to keep them safe, making it much more secure.
Xie Yitian heard this and quickly agreed, "Then let's head there first."
Thus, the Mechanical City set off again, heading southward.
Both the Mechanical City and the City of Heavenly Punishment are in the northern hemisphere.
However, Holy Hidden City and Wind City are at the equator, in the southern hemisphere, so the distances are very far, close to ten thousand kilometers.
The great migration had started one or two days ago, but it actually hadn't traveled far yet.
The journey was long, and with the reduced speed of the Mechanical City, it took over ten hours to get close to Xiao Shengyin and their group by the early morning of the next day.
"In about half an hour, we will be able to see them."
Su Yu stood at the highest point of the Mechanical City, looking ahead, thinking to himself.
He breathed a sigh of relief, always worried that something might have happened to Xiao Shengyin and their side during such a long time.
But now it seemed everything was fine, which reassured him.
Just at this moment, Su Yu suddenly changed his expression and pulled out a token from his waist; it was the token Tie Long had given him when he first joined the Transcendent Union.
At this time, the token was emitting spiritual energy fluctuations, and the voice of Xiao Shengyin came from it, "Mr. Su Yu, where are you? We are not feeling quite right..."
Su Yu asked in a deep voice, "What's going on? Is there a problem with the migration?"
Xiao Shengyin replied, "I don't know, we haven't discovered any enemies. But it feels like something is not quite right, a big disaster seems to be about to happen."
Su Yu pondered for a moment upon hearing this and said, "Continue your journey as normal without showing any signs of abnormality, and be careful with your defenses. I'll be there in about half an hour."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Shengyin felt relieved, "Half an hour? Rest assured, Mr. Su Yu, we have confidence in holding on for half an hour, no matter the enemy; it's just that..."
Su Yu understood the underlying worry in Xiao Shengyin's words.
Xiao Shengyin and Shao Lan are powerful, and they should be able to hold off strong enemies for half an hour.
But those tens of thousands of migrating people do not possess the same abilities, and if a battle truly erupts, it could result in total annihilation if not careful.
"Don't worry, once I get there, they will be safe."
Su Yu assured them.
Although Xiao Shengyin couldn't understand why Su Yu was so confident, he chose to trust Su Yu nonetheless.
After hanging up the communication, Su Yu fell into deep thought.
Beside him, Xie Yitian couldn't help but ask, "What happened?"
Su Yu came back to his senses and said, "There might be trouble with Chairman Xiao's side. It could be the demon or one of Zhang Chenfeng's creations targeting them, about to launch an attack."
Only these two possibilities could make Xiao Shengyin and them feel a looming disaster.
Xiao Shengyin has formidable strength and a sensitive mind, noticing something amiss, yet unable to locate the enemy's trail.
"What? The demon or Zhang Chenfeng's creations are planning to attack Chairman Xiao's group?"
Xie Yitian was taken aback.
Su Yu glanced at him, "Don't worry, we are very close."
"If there is any movement, I will go directly with the Brutal Battle Armor, and the Mechanical City's power will be temporarily provided by you and Tie Long."
Upon hearing this, Xie Yitian immediately responded, "Understood!"
Then he seemed to think of something, eyes lighting up with excitement, "Mr. Su Yu, is there a chance to witness the power of the Mechanical City?"
Su Yu nodded, "That's right. I also want to seize this opportunity to test the power of the Mechanical City!"
When Su Yu said this, a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
Beside him, Xie Yitian became even more excited upon hearing this.
He was very curious about the strength of the transformed and upgraded Mechanical City.
Could it be that in half an hour, there would be a chance to witness it?
...
At this moment, on Xiao Shengyin's side.
"How is it?"
Shao Lan and Qi Chen asked Xiao Shengyin.
Xiao Shengyin nodded slightly, "Mr. Su Yu said he could reach us in half an hour, and once he's here, the millions of migrating people will be safe; we can rest assured."
Upon hearing this, Shao Lan and Qi Chen both breathed a sigh of relief.
Then again, with some curiosity, they said, "Mr. Su Yu's strength is formidable, but how does he plan to protect these millions of migrating people?"
"The aftershocks of Seven-star Transcendents' battles can easily destroy cities, let alone Mr. Su Yu, who is far beyond seven stars, and likely the powerful enemy hidden in the shadows too."
"Once a battle erupts, these millions could be wiped out in no time. How does Mr. Su Yu plan to protect them?"
They couldn't understand where Su Yu's confidence came from.
"Never mind, since Mr. Su Yu has confidence, he must have some backing; let's wait and see."
Afterward, Xiao Shengyin and the others continued leading the millions on their journey while awaiting Su Yu's arrival.
Half an hour later.
"It seems there's no danger..."
After waiting for half an hour, Xiao Shengyin and the others didn't find any threats looming.
Although the ominous feeling kept reminding them of a life-threatening danger.
"Could it be a false alarm?"
"Never mind, Mr. Su Yu will be here soon."
Xiao Shengyin and the others said with calm hearts.
Just then, their expressions suddenly changed as they looked toward the north.
"What is that? So big! So terrifying!"
"Could this be the hidden danger we've been sensing?"
"This presence surely has at least a nine-star level of power!"
They sensed the approach of the Mechanical City and were utterly shocked.
They thought the Mechanical City was the lurking enemy.
Meanwhile, Su Yu also saw Xiao Shengyin and the others.
Su Yu was also taken aback.
Because, from Su Yu's perspective...
Xiao Shengyin, Shao Lan, Qi Chen, and even the millions of migrants they were leading, each had a twisted fleshy tentacle attached to their heads!
These flesh tentacles extended from the top of their heads, reaching skyward, where they fused into an incredibly twisted massive flesh mass hundreds of meters above the ground.
On the flesh mass were many indifferent and emotionless eyes, staring unblinkingly at Xiao Shengyin and the others below.
Xiao Shengyin and the others seemed completely unaware of this horrifying scene!
Xiao Shengyin and his group constantly felt danger, yet couldn't identify its source, thinking the enemy was merely lurking in the shadows without launching an attack.
However, the truth was, the attack had long been launched, yet Xiao Shengyin and the others couldn't see it at all!
It's noteworthy that Xiao Shengyin is an experienced Eight-star Transcendent, and Shao Lan, Qi Chen are veteran Sevens!
To launch an attack right before their eyes without them noticing — such strength...
"This is... the demon!"
"So huge! Nearly a third the size of the Mechanical City!"
"And managing to escape Chairman Xiao and the others' notice, could it be... its main body?"
Su Yu immediately recognized that this gigantic twisted flesh mass was the demon, and most likely its main body!
At this moment, the cold eyes on the demon's body all simultaneously shifted to look at Su Yu, as it obviously discovered Su Yu's arrival.
After glancing at Su Yu, the demon's eyes narrowed slightly, seeming to show a mocking smile.
Then the tendrils connecting to the tops of Xiao Shengyin and the others suddenly thickened, seemingly accelerating the extraction of something from their bodies!
"Not good!"
Su Yu secretly exclaimed, then suddenly activated his power and issued a command to the Mechanical Spirit:
"Mechanical Spirit, aim at that flesh mass, and have the Mechanical City crash into it for me!"
