in that desolate land, the last corpse on the red array gradually merged into the array, as if it were transformed into a dark current consequently, the red light of the array began to intensify at a visible speed
the corpse seemed to dissolve into the array, contributing to a mysterious force that powered it as the red light continued to grow stronger, it cast an eerie glow over the surrounding area the desolate land became enveloped in an air of unease, as if the spirits of the dead were awakened by the escalating magical energy
immediately afterwards, a massive gray light circle appeared out of nowhere, enpassing the man and the array before disappearing from its original location shortly after, the light circle appeared far away from the scene where jia zhu and the yi kui robot were engaged in a fierce battle
&34;the grand show is about to begin&34; situated in front of the array, the man&39;s lips curled into a sinister smile, muttering ancient and obscure incantations
with a sense of foreboding hanging in the air, the man&39;s eyes glinted with anticipation as he reveled in the mystifying atmosphere the words he spoke were shrouded in mystery, their echoes resonating throughout the surroundings, adding to the mounting tension
as the incantation continued, the man&39;s expression grew more and more sinister, his eyes fixed on the array before him
as the final words of the incantation faded away, the air crackled with anticipation, and the man&39;s eyes narrowed, filled with a renewed hunger for chaos and destruction the stage was set, the players ready, and the audience held captive by the invisible threads of fate the curtain was about to rise, and the world was about to be plunged into darkness
in the midst of the intense battle, no one noticed the unusual red glow in the distance the din of the battlefield and the dust clouds obscured everyone&39;s vision, while the mysterious light was like a lurking beast, waiting for the perfect moment to reveal its fangs
under the gaze of everyone, jia&39;s body instantaneously disintegrated, akin to a fireworks display, yet carrying a terrifying intensity particles rained down like hailstones, intermingled with blinding blood, creating a hellish scene reminiscent of a slaughterhouse
on the rooftop, yi squatted half-kneeling on the ground, bean-sized beads of sweat sliding down his cheeks, mingling with helplessness and determination &34;as expected, the distance is too far, and moreover, it&39;s the deposition of a living being, which consumes too much energy,&34; he gasped, &34;the rest is up to you all&34; and with that, he collapsed to the ground, exhausted by the overwhelming mental feedback
upon witnessing this scene, jia&39;s followers were all dumbfounded their mander was gone, leaving them leaderless, unsure of what to do next fear began to spread through the crowd although this was an inevitably one-sided battle, they were still pelled to fight most of them chose to retain their rationality and defected to yi kui&39;s side
however, there were always those who were ambitious and sought to seize the opportunity to rise to power with their leader gone, they aimed to take his place and bee the new generation of leaders these were the people in the vanguard, who promptly continued their offensive, attempting to swiftly resolve the battle and claim victory for themselves
thus, a chaotic battle between robots unfolded although the robots in the vanguard were formidable, the sheer number of armed robots was simply overwhelming, akin to a relentless tide it left them struggling to keep up
&34;damn it! what the hell is going on with them&34; ragefully cursed the person at station 4 in the control room
in the next second, the door of the control room was suddenly thrown open, several grenades flying inside, followed by a swift closing of the door due to the equipment worn by the operator, which covered half of his face, they did not witness the opening of the door just now
&34;what&39;s this&34; the operator blurted out in confusion however, the only response he received was a thunderous explosion, followed by the shutdown of the vanguard team&39;s robots, and subsequently their destruction one by one at the hands of the armed robots
originally thinking that the war had reached its end, a mysterious red glow emerged on the horizon gradually, a deeper red circle appeared overhead, sending an invisible sense of oppression akin to a looming thundercloud, making everyone on the scene gasp for air
from the red circle, a mysterious figure gradually materialized dressed in a white and gold metallic armor, with a pair of mechanical wings attached to his shoulder blades, his appearance evoked an irresistible urge to pay homage
&34;who calls upon me&34; the deep voice was like a thunderclap from the ninth heaven, shaking the very soul of those who heard it
&34;it is i, esteemed lord of arms&34; a voice resonated from afar, but no one dared to lift their head, afraid that they might inadvertently offend this mysterious presence
the person slowly approached the lord of arms, a humble smile adorning their lips: &34;i summon you to descend upon us to bee the ruler of this world if you have no intention to do so, i humbly request your assistance in claiming this world for myself&34;
&34;the person carefully lifted the blue diamond-shaped crystal in his hand this is the gift he intended to present to the god of machinery: &39;this is my gift to you&39;
&34;source core - absolute zero domain the battle that took place two thousand years ago actually caused many source cores to scatter throughout the mysterious realm well, let&39;s retrieve them as for you, a mere existence like a speck of dust, how dare you try to dictate terms to me you&39;re seeking death!&34;
mechanical god slowly stretched out a hand, its eyes blazing with a piercing gaze, and a tangible force began to coalesce in its palm the man was suddenly subjected to an immense amount of pressure, causing his body to twist in agony as if pressed by an irresistible force his body began to morph, eventually transforming into a blood-soaked cube, with only the red and grayish source core floating around it
inside the blood-soaked cube, a green source core slowly emerged from the bloody flesh the mechanical god&39;s gaze was cold and ruthless, a mocking smile curling up at the corners of its mouth: &34;so this is it you thought your pitiful energy could repair your body under such high pressure how laughable&34;
before the words had even finished echoing, the gray source core – capable of ultra-long distance teleportation, the red source core – dedicated to summoning offerings, and the green source core – eternal tribute, flew out one by one from the bloody flesh, converging in the mechanical god&39;s hand
on the rooftop far away, yi ci was disturbed by the loud sound just now and struggled to get up from the ground he looked down at the street below, where everyone was lowering their heads motionlessly then, his gaze fell on a golden and white mechanical suit upon seeing the mech god, a sense of reverence welled up in his heart
however, yi ci forcefully suppressed the urge to kneel and worship, tightly focusing his gaze on the distant mech god yes, he made a resolution, willing to pay any price to destroy the mech god
the mech god sensed the unusualness on his body and shifted his gaze towards the direction where yi ci was in an instant, yi ci&39;s heartbeat was like a drum, and a strong deathly aura spread out, making him shiver
&34;is there another source core&34;
the mech god appeared in front of yi ci in an instant, his gray-white eyes revealing endless mockery: &34;so it&39;s the supreme material deposition, but do you have enough energy to depose me hahaha!&34;
