"Wang Teng, why are you looking for me?" Star Mechanic Emperor appeared, looked at Wang Teng, and asked directly.
"Three parts of the [Mechanical Eye] have been replaced." Wang Teng did not hide anything and told him the problem he found.
"Impossible!" Star Mechanic Emperor's eyes widened in disbelief.
Wang Teng had expected this. The automaton race was more conceited than they looked.
This conceit was in their field of expertise.
It came from their extreme confidence in their field. After all, they had been in this field for countless years, so how could they allow others to question them?
However, it did not matter. Wang Teng loved to see people being stubborn and then embarrassed.
"Here, here, and there, please check it yourself." Wang Teng pointed at three places calmly and then moved aside to let Star Mechanic Emperor check it himself.
Star Mechanic Emperor saw that he was so confident, and his expression changed slightly. A blue light shot out of his eyes and scanned the three places he pointed out.
"This is …"
Soon, his pupils shrank, and he really found the problem.
If no one pointed it out, it would not be so easy to find the problem.
However, now that Wang Teng pointed out the location accurately, if he still could not find the problem, it would be a waste of his Immortal rank strength.
"Wu Yinsha!" This automaton race Immortal Emperor's expression finally turned ugly.
There really was a problem.
If Wang Teng did not point it out, what would the consequences be?
In this war that was about to start, it was not a big deal for the automaton race to lose face, but it would be a big deal if they were defeated because of this.
How would the other races look at the automaton race in the future?
It went without saying.
Thinking of that situation, even an Immortal rank like Star Mechanic Emperor felt a chill run down his spine.
Star Mechanic Emperor secretly took a deep breath and looked at Wang Teng with a hint of surprise. "How did you find out?"
"I checked it carefully, and I naturally found the problem," Wang Teng said calmly.
"…" Star Mechanic Emperor was speechless.
If checking it carefully was useful, why didn't they find it? Did this mean they were careless?
Impossible.
The Machine Race had never been careless.
It could only be said that Wang Teng was indeed quite capable. It was not without reason that Azeus the Venerable gave him the authority to use the [Mechanical Eyes].
If he had not discovered the problem, it would have been the Machinery Race that was in trouble.
In this respect, he should thank Wang Teng.
"I'll remember this." The Star Mechanic Emperor took a deep look at Wang Teng and said, "Considering the relationship between you and my Machine Race, I won't say too much."
For him to say this, it was clear that he approved of the relationship between Wang Teng and the Machinery Race.
Wang Teng was a little surprised. He glanced at him and smiled. He nodded slightly and said, "These three parts should have been replaced by someone else. Senior, you can check and see if you can find the hidden dark apparition."
"Dark apparition?" The Star Mechanic King was slightly shocked.
"What else?" Wang Teng asked, amused.
"That's right. Under such circumstances, who else could it be other than the dark apparition?" The Star Mechanic King nodded.
He was really confused. It was such a simple logic, but he did not immediately understand it.
"I'll get someone to start investigating immediately."
The Star Mechanic King nodded. He was very confident about this.
This was because the entire Lanji Void Fortress could be said to be under the control of the Machinery Race.
They could completely find the traces of the dark apparition without alerting anyone.
"It's best if you use your own automaton. Don't alert the other automatons," Wang Teng suddenly stopped him and said with a deeper meaning.
"You … What do you mean?" The Star Mechanic King couldn't help but be taken aback.
"The Machinery Race can also be occupied by the dark apparition, or the dark apparition can directly disguise itself as the Machinery Race and sneak into the Lanji Void Fortress," Wang Teng said faintly.
"That's impossible … right?" The Star Mechanic King wanted to refute with extreme confidence, but when he thought about how he was so confident just now and ended up being slapped in the face, he could not help but ask in the end.
"It's best to be careful. What do you think, Senior?" Wang Teng smiled.
The Star Mechanic King coughed and said, "That makes sense."
He decided to accept Wang Teng's opinion.
No matter what, there was nothing wrong with being careful. Moreover, it was not difficult for his mechanical puppet to check it personally. It was just a little troublesome.
However, at this critical moment, it was better to be a little troublesome than to have problems during the start of the war.
Therefore, his eyes flashed slightly, and with a thought, orders were immediately sent to the mechanical puppet's mind.
Those mechanical puppets were completely under his control. He could easily order them to do things with just a thought.
Wang Teng had already learned this from Yuan Gungun.
It joined the Machinery Race, so some information about the Machinery Race was naturally open to it.
Just now, when Wang Teng was checking the [Mechanical Demonic Eye], it was bored and went to learn more about it.
This was the good thing about artificial intelligence. It was much easier to understand information than ordinary martial artists, and it did not take much time.
After the Star Mechanic King gave the order, he said to Wang Teng, "I'll bring those parts over immediately and replace them."
In order to ensure that nothing went wrong, the Machinery Race had prepared many spare parts that could be replaced at any time.
This was also to deal with all kinds of situations during the war. If the [Mechanical Demonic Eye] was damaged, they could immediately replace it with new parts.
"Senior, if you believe me, I suggest not to replace them for the time being," Wang Teng said.
The Star Mechanic King asked in surprise, "Why?"
"To lower the dark apparition's guard and let them think that we don't know that there's a problem with the [Mechanical Demonic Eye]," Wang Teng said.
"But if we capture that dark apparition, we will also alert them," the Star Mechanic King said.
Wang Teng's eyes flashed, and he smiled. "So, I also suggest that after discovering it, we don't capture it for the time being."
"Don't capture it?" The Star Mechanic King looked at Wang Teng and did not understand what he was thinking.
This legendary prodigy seemed to be really hard to fathom.
Even he, a Machinery Race Immortal who had lived for god knows how long, felt like his IQ was not enough in front of the other party.
"Yes, don't capture it. When the war starts, it won't be too late to deal with it," Wang Teng said.
"You want the other party to pass on the wrong information?" The Star Mechanic King suddenly understood and said.
"It seems that Senior has already guessed it." Wang Teng smiled and nodded.
"This idea is feasible, but it's a little risky." The Star Mechanic King frowned and said, "We don't know how many tricks that hidden dark apparition has done to us.
"If it did not only do something to the [Mechanical Demonic Eye] but also the entire Lanji Void Fortress, I'm afraid it will be troublesome.
"Therefore, we need to capture it as soon as possible and get some information from it."
"It's useless," Wang Teng shook his head and said, "Even if we capture it, do you have a way to make it talk?"
"This …" The Star Mechanic King fell silent.
He did not have such confidence.
Even the Machinery Race did not have a particularly good way to deal with dark apparitions.
In fact, they would also be infected by the power of darkness. If their core was infected, it would be even more troublesome and difficult to eradicate than ordinary warriors.
Therefore, they were also full of fear toward dark apparitions.
"Capturing them isn't the best method. Finding them and monitoring them secretly is the best choice," Wang Teng said. "We can use them effectively to pass false information to us. That's the best choice."
The Star Mechanic King's eyes flashed as if he was thinking.
He had to admit that what Wang Teng said was very reasonable.
This young prodigy did seem to be very good at dealing with dark apparitions. He had to treat his suggestion seriously.
Moreover, before Venerable Zeus left, he had told him to listen to Wang Teng's opinion more.
He did not expect it to come true so quickly.
"Okay, we'll do as you say." In the end, the Star Mechanic King still nodded and chose to believe in Wang Teng.
Not long later, three types of parts were sent over and given to Wang Teng.
Wang Teng accepted them without hesitation. He would not change these parts immediately but wait until the battle started. At that time, it would definitely give the dark apparition a surprise.
Time slowly passed, and the Star Mechanic King's expression became more and more serious. He put down everything and personally looked for that dark apparition, but he found nothing.
"You didn't find it?" Wang Teng was a little surprised and asked.
The Star Mechanic King nodded with a serious expression.
Wang Teng had a suspicious expression.
Could it be that my guess was wrong?
Impossible.
He had confirmed with the Blood God Clone that the dark apparition was definitely here. It was just that it hid too well and used some unknown method to hide from the Machinery Race.
"Can you tell me the location of all the Machinery Race? I'll go and take a look myself," Wang Teng said.
"You have a way?" the Star Mechanic King asked.
"Let's try." Wang Teng smiled. He didn't say anything else.
"Okay!" The Star Mechanic King nodded and did not ask any more questions. He sent a distribution map to Yuan Gungun and said, "I have sent the location of a few Machinery Race to Yuan Gungun. It knows their exact location. Let it bring you there."
"Okay." Wang Teng did not delay any longer and directly walked out, leaving the lowest level of this void fortress.
The Star Mechanic King's eyes flashed, and he could not help but sigh. He did not expect that even the void fortress of the Machinery Race would be infiltrated by the dark apparition. To think that he was so confident in the past.
He had embarrassed himself in front of this young prodigy.
"I hope you can really find that hidden dark apparition." The Star Mechanic King's figure disappeared, and only a soft voice echoed. No one heard it.
…
"Yuan Gungun, mark the location." Wang Teng came to the third level of the Lanji Void Fortress and said telepathically.
"Okay."
Yuan Gungun responded and presented a distribution map of the Lanji Void Fortress in Wang Teng's mind.
Every level of the Lanji Void Fortress was extremely huge. Trying to find a person in it was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Fortunately, there were very few Machinery Race members, and the rest were all mechanical puppets. Therefore, with the map given by the Star Mechanic King, they could quickly find the exact location.
Wang Teng saw the first Machinery Race member other than the Star Mechanic King.
What surprised him was that this Machinery Race member was actually the core of the third level and was integrated with the third level of the void fortress like a huge mechanical brain.
The security here was very tight. If Yuan Gungun had not become a Machinery Race member and obtained the corresponding authority, he would not have been able to get close to this place at all.
"This is also a Machinery Race member?" Wang Teng asked telepathically while hiding himself and not letting the other party notice.
"Yes." Yuan Gungun nodded and said, "The core of the Machinery Race is an artificial intelligence life form. The outer mechanical shell can be any shape."
Wang Teng was deep in thought. He activated the Immortal-grade [Eye of Truth] to the extreme and silently observed the existence of this Machinery Race member in front of him.
"Huh?"
He suddenly exclaimed softly and stared at the core of the mechanical shell with some surprise.
"What's wrong?" Yuan Gungun asked curiously.
It knew that Wang Teng must have discovered something, or else he would not have reacted like this.
This made it even more curious.
"Could this be a dark apparition?" It could not help but mumble.
"No." Wang Teng shook his head but did not explain anything.
He divided his Psychic Power into an extremely thin thread and covered it with his Psychic Power. Then, he extended it into the core of the mechanical shell through the space crack.
Since it was a mechanical body, it was impossible for it to fit perfectly. There must be a slight gap.
Even if this gap was very, very small, it was a huge breakthrough for Wang Teng, who had mastered the power of space.
Hence, he easily invaded the core of the mechanical shell and picked up a few attribute bubbles.
The existence of the Machinery Race seemed to be in a deep sleep and did not notice anything.
After all, it was only at the sector lord level, and Wang Teng's Psychic Power was comparable to that of a sector lord. He also had various hidden techniques, so it was natural that the other party would not notice.
[Heart of Evolution * 100]
[Heart of Evolution * 150]
[Heart of Evolution * 120]
…
Wang Teng's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes instantly shone with a dazzling light.
The Heart of Evolution!
It was actually this attribute bubble.
Azeus the Knight had just mentioned it to him. He did not expect to pick up the attribute bubble of the Heart of Evolution. He was pleasantly surprised.
Before he could think about it, the corresponding realization had already entered his mind.
A dark blue object slowly appeared. It was a crystal-clear heart that was beating slowly. It was very lifelike.
On the surface of the crystal heart, there were strange golden patterns that exuded an extremely special power.
This power was like the origin of life, but also like the origin of the soul. It also seemed to contain the power of origin law and immortal energy. It was very mystical.
To Wang Teng, the shock that this heart gave him was greater than anything else.
It was as if a life was born in front of him.
Hints of enlightenment appeared in Wang Teng's mind. But, very quickly, it stopped abruptly.
He did not have enough attribute points.
He slowly opened his eyes and looked at the attribute panel with some regret.
[Heart of Evolution] (Unknown – Incomplete): 370/50000 (Entry);
"…" Wang Teng was speechless.
The entry level of the [Heart of Evolution] required 50,000 attribute points, and he had only just obtained 370 attribute points. The difference was huge.
