Waves of fear rolled in from afar. * * *
This time, Lin was prepared. She arranged troops inside the Kingdom of God to prevent any buildings from collapsing.
However, there was another creature that was prepared earlier. It was … the battleship of the gel creatures.
The gigantic body that resembled a chunk of meat blocked the incoming waves of fear, but the moment the fear arrived … Lin discovered a miraculous phenomenon.
The wave of fear crashed into the gel battleship, but it did not pass through like a normal object. Instead, it was like a real wave hitting a rock.
The wave of fear was split into two by the gel battleship. Like two streams of water, it flowed in two directions. Therefore, no wave of fear could get close to the Kingdom of God. The residents of the Kingdom of God … also avoided death due to the damage to their cranial nerves.
It seemed … the gel creatures had a way to control the waves of fear. Indeed, they had shown a similar ability before. It was to prevent the minced meat bombs from being blocked by the mini shield and successfully hit the mechanical base.
But it was easier to do that. To be able to control the incoming waves of fear … that was very strange.
However, the effect of the dispersed waves of fear did not disappear. The waves of fear spread among the floating rocks. Many of the rocks began to move.
The mechanical bases that had turned into mechanical bases immediately launched an attack.
There were a total of one hundred mechanical bases activated. They were neatly divided into tactics. Fifty of them aimed at the Kingdom of God while the other fifty aimed at the gel battleship that had blocked the waves of fear.
As soon as their radiance was released, these mechanical bases were also destroyed by Lin's attack and turned into dust.
Most of their light was intercepted along the way. Only one of them … successfully hit its target, the gel creature battleship.
This shot also tore the flesh-like battleship apart. It looked very fragile, like a piece of meat that had been torn apart and scattered in all directions.
But when it scattered, Lin sensed another message from the gel creatures. This message … contained more content.
Mainly, there are some … gelatinous creatures about them. They were a group of creatures that were created by the Star Bus to prevent the collapse. Lin already knew this.
And after the collapse, they still guarded this place. Maintaining the stability of the place wasn't because the gel creatures had a mission like the Xenogeneics.
All of them … had volunteered to guard this place. They were willing to help the Star Bus manage the world formed after their deaths and maintain the balance of all the creatures here.
The structure of the floating rocks was similar to that of the gravitational sphere.
There were countless floating rocks here. It was maintained by devices similar to gravitational organs … although it was similar, the Gel Creatures claimed that they had modified such organs to make them larger and more stable.
Furthermore, the organs here did not belong to a single Star Bus, but were left behind by multiple Star Buses that had collapsed. That was why they were able to maintain the stability of such a large area.
Lin had guessed the situation here before, and it was indeed as she had guessed. There was a gravitational sphere and a floating rock field. They were of the same 'origin', but their positions were different. The gravitational sphere had the purpose of monitoring the water sphere, while the floating rocky lands were purely an ecological environment for the creatures that were originally on the Stellar Bus to continue living and propagate.
However, after a long period of maintenance, the floating rocks had attracted many creatures from the Void, including the micro-machines.
The micro-machines and the Gel Creatures had made some sort of agreement, stating that they would always stay in a certain area and would not do anything else.
The Gel Creatures did not explain the agreement in detail, but it was clear that the micro-machines were no longer abiding by the agreement.
In fact, the last time they fought with Lin, they had done many things. They did many things that were outside the scope of the agreement, and this time, it could be considered an all-out war.
The Gel Creatures would never have shared such information … but after Lin told them about the gravity sphere, the Gel Creatures decided to explain the situation here to her.
The Gel Creatures did not know what the micro-machines were thinking, but they knew that they must have a purpose … to attack the location of the gravitational organ.
Perhaps to occupy it. Or to destroy it. Lin knew that the micro-machines' final goal was to trigger a large-scale collapse here and allow the Fear energy to return to the Unforeseen Land.
They appeared to be quite … anxious. Lin thought that there was a possibility that after a certain time, the Fear energy could no longer return to the Unforeseen Land. That was why they were so anxious to attack this place.
Even if she did not understand their thoughts through the mayor's mind, Lin could feel that there was an emotion of 'anxiety' contained within the Fear … and they were definitely rushing for time.
And now, the Fear waves came again …
This time, the waves were much larger than before. It rolled over countless rocks and lunged towards the Kingdom of God once more.
Though the Fear waves were larger than before, Lin's' shield 'was also much larger than before. Between the Kingdom of God and the waves, thousands of Gel Creatures' warships appeared.
The blood-red shields collided with the Fear energy, and it was as if the invisible energy had crashed into a thick wall. Though the Gel Creatures' warships were far apart, the Fear could not pass through.
They spread towards their surroundings, turning many motionless rocks into mobile mechanical bases … but those bases were too far away from their target, the Kingdom of God.
Their attacks couldn't reach this place, as they would be destroyed one by one before they could. However, these bases also understood this, so the moment they moved, they didn't aim at the Nation of God, but at the surrounding enemy forces, such as Gel's warships and Lin's attack rocks.
These bases were attempting to make use of what remained of their value before they were destroyed, weakening the enemy forces slightly.
But when they were destroyed, Lin once again felt that the Fear waves would not stop. They tirelessly attacked the Kingdom of God once more.
Lin believed that the Kingdom of God was a very important target for them, perhaps as important as the gravity organs. Perhaps it was not only because of the mayor … but also because of the citizens.
These miniature machines took a long time … to collect the citizens. Their specific uses were still unknown, but they would definitely be important. Although they were constantly attacking this place, their previous attacks would not completely destroy the Kingdom of God. Their main purpose was to destroy the defenses that Lin had set up, and at the same time, create some 'earthquakes' that would affect the mayor inside.
Most of the citizens inside would survive, as they were very valuable to the Micro Machines.
Lin believed that she could use these citizens … to threaten the Micro Machines. It might not be effective, but if it was possible, she should try.
But now, there was no need.
As the Kingdom of God flew further and further away from the battlefield, the Fear waves were once again blocked by the shield formed by the Gel Creatures, and the troops born from the scattered energy were all destroyed again.
No matter how fast the Micro Machines were activated and attacked, Lin and the Gel Creatures' troops were always one step ahead in destroying them.
However, Lin also noticed that the Fear waves would no longer activate a corresponding number of Micro Machines. Lin believed that they were deliberately holding back some of them, perhaps to use some tactics later.
But that was meaningless …
Lin began to use the attack stones to scatter countless minuscule soldiers around. They would carefully inspect every stone in the surroundings and immediately destroy any suspicious targets.
The Gel Creatures were also doing the same. They used the smaller ones … about one meter in size to fly on various rocks and examine them.
If the Micro Machines intended to hide their troops, many of their troops would be destroyed before they could be activated.
And the Micro Machines had also begun to use some new tactics.
At the beginning of the battlefield at the edge of the floating rocks, explosions were still going on there. Most of the Gel Creatures and the Micro Machines were fighting inside, while Lin's troops were around the battlefield, attacking the Micro Machines that wanted to fly out of the battlefield.
Lin noticed that they had begun to slowly stop flying out. All the Micro Machines stayed in the battlefield and began to fight the Gel Creatures with all their might. They no longer tried to sneak out of the battlefield.
Moreover, they used some combination of methods similar to before.
Many Micro Machines began to piece together. They first collided with each other, then quickly disintegrated the rock shell of the contact point, allowing the two Micro Machines to merge into one.
Even though it appeared as if they had only grown larger and did not have any special meaning, their firepower was many times stronger than before. Lin saw a five-in-one mechanical base that was wildly scattering large amounts of flashes, and the surrounding gelatinous creatures were all vanishing in the flashes.
At the same time, it also released a large number of miniature machines. These tiny machines swarmed around like a swarm of insects. They surrounded all kinds of floating rocks nearby, or the wreckage left behind from the previous battle, and dug a large number of small holes on them and drilled in.
After a while, the rocks that the Micro Machines drilled into began to move. They seemed to be directly modifying the rocks on the spot to create a Micro Machine Base.
And the Micro Machines' overall strategy … changed from using a large number of troops to break through the blockade to creating elite troops to destroy the surrounding enemy troops first. (To be continued.)
