A man must bear some responsibility. At this moment, Lin Yuan felt as if he had found his direction. Although he was incredibly weak within the Peace Council Base, he remained quite optimistic and began to take action.
His first concern was the situation regarding the Vengeance Alliance attacking the Peace Council Base. Due to his low strength, he couldn't go to the battlefield, but by asking Butler A and checking various battle reports, he was able to ascertain that the situation wasn't too dangerous. The alarm was merely due to an elite team from the Vengeance Alliance causing trouble. Of course, this so-called trouble could easily lead to disaster, as those individuals were not afraid of the mutated Ancient Protozoan Virus and had captured many of them, carelessly tossing them near the entrance of the Peace Council Base.
Such behavior was quite disgusting because Mechanical Warriors were most afraid of these ancient Original Parasite Virus Variants. Often, a few hundred mutants could send even powerful Mechanical Warriors fleeing in panic.
The Vengeance Alliance's antics always put the Peace Council on high alert, necessitating the mobilization of all members. On one hand, they needed to drive away those from the Vengeance Alliance; on the other hand, they had to find a way to capture these extremely dangerous Original Parasite Virus Variants and neutralize them.
At that moment, Lin Yuan used Butler A to search for images of the battle outside. This fight was commanded by Ruler Shrek, with nearly two-thirds of the Peace Council's members participating. The battle was mainly divided into two fronts: one dealing with the Original Parasite Virus Variants and the other pursuing and driving away the elite team from the Vengeance Alliance.
The fight against the Ancient Protozoan Virus was rather dull; it involved a straightforward yet perilous strategy of taking hits. In contrast, the pursuit of the Vengeance Alliance's elite team captured Lin Yuan's attention completely. He couldn't help but be drawn in. This so-called elite team from the Vengeance Alliance consisted of only three members: a High-Level Insectoid, a Kugite Shipman, and a massive Golden Eagle.
Lin Yuan had heard of these three life forms and had even encountered a Kugite Shipman up close. However, he never imagined their advanced forms could be so terrifying! Powerful Mechanical Life seemed somewhat feeble before them.
These three beings could handle fifteen high-level Mechanical Warriors simultaneously. It was important to note that these were Native Mechanical Life forms; their overall strength was beyond what Lin Yuan could imagine.
Yet even when faced with such overwhelming odds, these three displayed an air of ease.
"Can we get a closer and more detailed view of the battle? These three seem very strong!" Lin Yuan requested eagerly. After all, witnessing such high-level combat was an invaluable opportunity for him; observing it closely would undoubtedly be beneficial. Unfortunately, the transmitted battle footage was of such poor quality that it resembled an old black-and-white 14-inch television filled with static—impossible to see clearly.
"I'm sorry, Newborn Papaya. That's not possible because our base is within a Heavy Iron Magnetic Storm Core. All transmission signals must undergo level 9 encryption before they can be sent here. The quality you're seeing is already quite good. However, if you're willing to pay 10 Wandering Coins per minute for perfect 1080-degree 3D battle details and explanations, that could be arranged," Smart Brain Butler A replied in a very human-like manner. Although its voice was sweet, it left Lin Yuan feeling disheartened; ten Wandering Coins per minute felt like a tragedy.
"Sir, Wandering Coin? What is Wandering Coin? Is it currency in this Subworld?" Claire's voice suddenly chimed in. Clearly, she couldn't resist activating her soul wave synchronization with Lin Yuan again. At that moment, however, Lin Yuan didn't have the energy to protest this intrusion.
"Yes, this Subworld is quite unstable, Claire. I'm worried that after some time, it might collapse, and when that happens, we will have to flee again, and you will have to enter a state of slumber once more." Lin Yuan sighed and briefly explained the situation of the Exiled World to Claire.
"Huh? Exiled World, Exile? Could it be—this is the Iron Blood-sd-18 Exile Prison? Hiss—Sir, it seems we've really run into big trouble this time. The Iron Blood-sd-18 Exile Prison is one of the three most notorious Exile Prisons in the Mechanical Empire's history, known for holding the most prisoners and being home to the most vicious criminals. Almost all of the universe's most terrifying, ruthless, powerful, and infamous criminals, Rebels, are exiled in these three prisons. If I remember correctly, before the rebellion that occurred twenty million years ago, there were at least five detectable S-Class Criminals imprisoned here in Iron Blood-sd-18. As for those above S-Class who cannot be detected, there are at least fifteen powerful beings who have been exiled here over billions of years. I can even assert that the outbreak of the Ancient Protozoan Virus in this Exiled World is definitely not a simple accident but controlled by some unknown powerful entity. Although the Ancient Protozoan Virus is terrifying, any Mechanical Warrior above S-Class can be immune to it. Therefore, the situation here cannot be as hopeless as that of Ruler Shrek; there might be some conspiracy at play. Sir, it seems we really need to work hard. Since we can't find a place where we can live peacefully, let's create one ourselves! Now, Sir, don't worry about the consumption of Wandering Coin; I need more detailed information for analysis. Perhaps if we join forces, we won't be as weak as we imagined!"
Claire's tone was light and optimistic, which naturally infected Lin Yuan because he had come to trust her immensely. After all, she was once a Mechanical Goddess—a being worshipped by all Mechanical Warriors in the world of Mechanical Life. Despite her current weakened state, she remained his source of confidence and his strongest ally.
At that moment, Lin Yuan stopped hesitating and immediately purchased expensive information transmission through Smart Brain Butler A. The effect wasn't great compared to Auditory Radar's comprehensive three-dimensional projection; it was more akin to a 1st-century Earth D-movie. Nevertheless, the transmitted images still left Lin Yuan quite shocked and excited.
Through this relatively decent real-time information transmission, he could clearly see the blurred data of those fifteen powerful Native Mechanical Lifeforms once they entered combat mode. This was incredibly valuable information for Lin Yuan; even a single design element from their advanced Mechanical Bodies could bring him immense surprises.
However, what chilled Lin Yuan's heart even more than those fifteen Primitive Mechanical Warriors was the presence of three uninvited guests.
The first was a High-Level Insectoid—standing about 80 meters tall with a streamlined body resembling a spider. It had three heads and twenty-four massive limbs that could flexibly transform. These limbs bore a material similar to webbing; when gathered quickly, it could transform into a bizarre flying dragon. According to data analysis, this was an A7-level Insectoid Warrior characterized by swift movement and sharp attacks. Indeed, even with five high-level Mechanical Warriors surrounding it and unleashing various Gravitational Fields and powerful moves continuously, this Insectoid Warrior darted around like lightning—almost impossible to track—and its movement trajectory was precise enough to take on five opponents without losing ground.
The second was a Kugite Shipman. This was Lin Yuan's first time seeing a Kugite Shipman in combat mode. According to data analysis, Kugite Shipmen were also part of the Mechanical Lifeform Race—akin to the distance between Earth Humans and Gorillas—but just as humans would never consider Gorillas as partners or friends, Mechanical Warriors would never regard Kugite Shipmen as their own kind. If Kugite Shipmen were like Gorillas with low intelligence, it would be one thing; however, their intelligence was far from low—they were very much standard Intelligent Lifeforms—leading to an unavoidable conflict.
At this moment, the Kugite Shipman appeared as half Mechanical Body and half Silicon-based Lifeform. At first glance, it resembled a Mechanical Warrior; however, while Mechanical Warriors could change forms extensively with detachable parts, Kugite Shipmen were different. Their half Mechanical Bodies were fused with Silicon-based Lifeforms; thus they couldn't change parts easily—even if damaged, they could only grow back slowly. Their forms were limited to two: shipman form and combat form.
But when entering combat form, Kugite Shipmen became colossal giants. The Native Mechanical Bodies were already massive—ranging from hundreds to even two or three hundred meters tall—but before the transformed Kugite Shipman, they looked like rabbits in front of an elephant!
In fact, eight Mechanical Warriors were struggling against this Kugite Shipman.
Without a doubt, Kugite Shipmen were tough—they could take hits and had immense strength while being immune to various negative buffs; they embodied Demacian Power!
As for the third unexpected guest, it was relatively weaker—a massive Golden Eagle. This creature served as an aerial support unit, excelling in flight and possessing Ranged Attack capabilities. It was impressive, capable of launching its feathers like throwing knives, covering hundreds of targets in a single strike.
Of course, these throwing knives were only relatively weak compared to the colossal beings around. From Lin Yuan's perspective, each feather thrown could measure five meters long, almost resembling a flying missile! (To be continued...)
