Chapter 234: The Real and Fake Lu Yan, Version Fragment_2
...
One day later, the military base stationed at the border of the Land of the Gods by Intelligent Machinery City was destroyed.
A Satellite-Class War Fortress ignited above the sky, but in the midst of the blaze, the anti-gravity system held out until the end. This caused the molten steel to rain down on the earth, turning an area of over ten miles into a Land of Steel.
...
Lu Yan, using the Divine Techniques of the Yinli God, blended into the wilderness and swiftly moved towards his next target.
Within a day, including the destruction of the Cave Profound Blessed Land ruins, Lu Yan had leveled several resource bases of the Intelligent Machinery City.
The core module of the Satellite-Class War Fortress not only greatly enhanced the incubation of the Supreme Divine Techniques Seed, but also advanced the optimization of the Ghost God Computer with the main brain algorithm.
The gains were so immense that they came faster than slaughtering zombies in the Apocalypse Version.
After all, in the Apocalypse Version, zombies were scattered and required time to search for each one, and the speed of the Yin Soldiers slaughtering zombies also had its limits.
But each base in Intelligent Machinery City only had one or two Satellite-Class War Fortresses, and as long as the Power of Rules in its three major modules was broken through, it could be easily destroyed—an even simpler task for Lu Yan than slaughtering zombies.
After consecutively destroying so many Satellite-Class War Fortresses in a single day, Lu Yan knew that Intelligent Machinery City would certainly take action, so he abandoned the method of space teleportation for travel.
While space teleportation is indeed faster, it leaves spatial traces that can easily expose oneself.
In comparison, cloaked flight, although slower, is much safer.
As the wilderness ahead gradually receded, Lu Yan arrived at his current target, Chain Hub City, the third largest city under the control of Intelligent Machinery City.
Chain Hub City is the information center within the domain of Intelligent Machinery City's rule, and its information network can radiate throughout the Mechanical Realm.
More crucially, Chain Hub City is one of the few cities where the Intelligent Mechanism Race resides in the Mechanical Realm.
Though only a few hundred reside here, for the Intelligent Mechanism Race, who believe in mechanical ascent, this is already a considerable population.
It's worth noting that Lu Yan destroyed four resource bases and only encountered a few dozen members of the Intelligent Mechanism Race, most of whom were commanders stationed at Satellite-Class War Fortresses.
As Lu Yan drew closer to Chain Hub City, he gradually slowed down and set his sights on the two Satellite-Class War Fortresses overhead.
According to main brain information records, Chain Hub City is not a strategic stronghold, typically guarded by only one Satellite-Class War Fortress.
The presence of an additional fortress clearly indicated their preparation against Lu Yan's attack on Chain Hub City.
"It's a pity, of no value!"
Concealed in the void, Lu Yan slowly approached the Satellite-Class War Fortress.
After destroying several Satellite-Class War Fortresses, Lu Yan had already tested the detection limits of these fortresses. As long as he didn't come within ten kilometers, it was impossible to detect his presence through conventional means.
Maintaining his position at the limit distance, he began to prepare for action.
Following the same tactic as before, first deploying the Celestial Spirit·Yin Talisman Triple Kill on the secondary fortress without rule-based defense, then mustering all strength to take down the Satellite-Class War Fortress.
With a Seal Technique in hand, the Triple Kill True Intent between heaven and earth was silently invoked.
Lu Yan pointed remotely at one of the secondary fortresses; as the moment of the Triple Kill True Intent descended, his expression suddenly changed.
In his perception, the invincible Yin Talisman Triple Kill was unexpectedly blocked by an invisible force. That secondary fortress unexpectedly possessed rule-level defense capabilities.
"Not good, it's a trap!"
Lu Yan immediately prepared to tear open space and escape; in an instant, the entire world came to a standstill.
Countless fine cracks appeared in the void, like a shattered mirror, with time itself seemingly solidified within each crack. The space was frozen by some force, and even the air turned into solid crystals, refracting bizarre light.
At this moment, a brilliant divine light suddenly tore through the solidified void, cleaving the veil of reality like a sharp sword.
A demigod exuding terrifying power stepped out from the rift, his massive form beyond description, distorting the surrounding void.
As he slowly closed his five fingers, the entire world was grasped in his palm, transformed into a miniature realm. The space Lu Yan had just torn open closed instantly, cutting off his escape.
Meanwhile, a humanoid figure ascended slowly from the secondary fortress.
It was a humanoid mecha, entirely silver-white, with mysterious runes flowing across its surface, embodying layers of warped reality.
Intelligent Machinery City doesn't focus on individual combat strength, but that doesn't mean it lacks powerful individual combat capabilities.
Over thousands of years, Intelligent Machinery City has collected numerous fragmentary rules, using the most precious among them—vast causal rules—as the core, to create the pinnacle of individual combat power within Intelligent Machinery City: the Prophet Mecha.
The Prophet Mecha is equipped with a Causality Coordination Module capable of simulating the future, its eyes glowing with ecto-blue light, as if able to perceive every possible moment along the river of time, avoiding all erroneous futures.
In fact, as far back as when Lu Yan attacked the resource base of Cave Profound Blessed Land, Intelligent Machinery City had already reacted and rapidly locked onto Lu Yan's identity.
After all, Lu Yan's Celestial Spirit·Yin Talisman Triple Kill Skill is too recognizable.
At the outset, Intelligent Machinery City contemplated mobilizing military forces from various divisions to encircle and intercept Lu Yan, aiming to annihilate him within the domain of Intelligent Machinery City.
