The intensity of the war escalated as the endless transport spaceships arrived from across space.
The robot rats that were wreaking havoc on the battlefield and the silicon-based warriors with powerful individual combat power were far from the Heaven Machinations Army's trump cards.
As the Heaven Machinations Army that grew in technology, they often fought with those organizations that grew in cultivation during the extraterrestrial plundering. 'Zero' had long since come up with many plans to fight against them.
As several huge transport spaceships arrived from across space again, huge metal tanks descended from the sky.
Before these metal tanks even landed, they aimed their cannons at the area where the players were densely packed and opened fire.
Seeing this, the warrior players immediately wanted to charge forward and take the damage.
However, what surprised them was that these metal tanks did not shoot out cannons but clumps of purple sticky substances.
These substances disintegrated into small water droplets in the air and sprinkled around the battlefield like raindrops.
Then, a scene that surprised the players happened.
The spiritual energy in the surroundings began to decrease rapidly and was sucked dry in the blink of an eye. Very soon, the surroundings became a spiritual energy vacuum.
This was one of the ultimate techniques that 'Zero' had developed to fight against organizations that grew in cultivation.
"Soul-Absorbing Cannon!"
The metal tanks were filled with a special liquid made by grinding and improving the 'Soul-Absorbing Stone'. This liquid was usually sealed inside the metal tanks that had no spiritual energy. As long as it was released and came into contact with the areas with spiritual energy nearby, it would absorb a large amount of spiritual energy and create an area without spiritual energy.
This technique of the Heaven Machinations Army had been tested in prolonged battles. Without the support of an endless supply of spiritual energy, many cultivators would fall into a predicament due to the lack of spiritual energy, and their combat power would decrease greatly.
Even the powerhouses who had a large amount of spiritual energy in their bodies would become cautious in the face of this technique. They would not dare to casually release spells that consumed a large amount of spiritual energy in case they ran out of spiritual energy at a critical moment.
This was also indirectly weakening the enemy's combat power.
Zero had once relied on this move to defeat a force that was stronger than her. Because of this, she had plundered a large amount of resources from that world.
However, to the players, although they were surprised by the Heaven Machinations Army's response, they were not worried that there would be any problems.
This was because it was impossible to run out of spiritual energy. It would only cost a little soul coins.
Therefore, the players did not care at all. They would release spells whenever they needed to and did not care about conserving spiritual energy at all. Earning soul coins was the most important thing.
Obviously, the enemy's artificial intelligence system didn't expect this. The players were still savagely attacking the machine army, completely unaffected by the Soul-Absorbing Cannons.
Actually, the thing that gave the players the biggest headache right now wasn't the silicon-based warriors with powerful individual battle prowess. Instead, it was the mechanical rats that covered the ground. It was as if there was no end to them and they were really difficult to deal with.
They carried energy fragments and nano repair fluid with them. Working together to repair a machine only required five mechanical rats and three seconds.
Even the Mechanical Intelligence Soldiers that had their energy cores taken away by the Players could recover in a short period of time and join the battle once again.
Therefore, the players had already realized that as long as the robot rat couldn't be dealt with, the battle would not end.
The live chat channel was filled with discussions as they tried to come up with countermeasures.
At this moment, a voice sounded in the live chat channel.
"Let me do it. I should be able to handle it!"
As his voice fell, the sky suddenly became gloomy. Surging corpse aura appeared out of nowhere and condensed into "black crows" in the sky, letting out ear-piercing cries.
After they condensed, they pounced on the mechanical mice on the ground, grabbed them, and swallowed them.
As time passed, the number of black crows that filled the sky increased. They were like dark clouds that covered the sky and the sun, surging in the battlefield.
Seeing this, Hu He grinned. Then, he reached out and patted the corpse aura bag. Immediately, surging corpse aura surged out again and condensed into black coffins in front of him.
The moment the coffins opened, familiar characters such as Cha Na and Hiderigami appeared.
It had been 2000 years since the expedition in the extraterrestrial region. At this moment, Hu He had long been apotheosized. The zombie spirits in his hands had also been refined into the God's state by him, and their battle prowess was still as strong as ever.
The zombie spirit army was mobilized at this moment.
Hu He's strategy was very similar to the battle plan of the mechanical mouse army.
The main role of the mechanical mouse army was to assist the mechanical army in attacking and repairing the battlefield. When necessary, they would self-destruct to create an advantage for the mechanical army.
This was also the case for Hu He's strategy.
The purpose of these "black crows" that were condensed from corpse aura was to transform into corpse aura to repair the zombie spirits' bodies when they were injured. There was nothing special about their battle prowess.
However, at this moment, it had a miraculous effect.
The black crows fought against the mechanical mice, while the zombie spirits fought against the silicon-based warriors.
After the appearance of Hu He's Black Crow Army, the pressure on the players was relieved. They immediately seized the opportunity to attack.
This time, the players had learned their lesson.
As long as they defeated and destroyed a silicon-based warrior, they would not wait for the mechanical mice to repair it. They would decisively store its body together with its energy core into the channel.
They would not even give it a chance to repair itself.
Under such an attack, the players once again gained the upper hand. They followed the warrior players and advanced in all directions with the area they were at as the center, expanding the battle circle.
This was an invasion, and defending was not the style of the players.
Their attacks were unusually fierce, and they did not show any signs of weakening their attacks.
Under such attacks, the mechanical army retreated step by step. Under the control of the artificial intelligence system, they began to retreat defensively.
Although the technology-oriented Heavenly Mechanic Army had extremely efficient tactical combinations and coordination abilities, and they would occasionally appear in the battle with black technology weapons that left the players speechless.
However, there was one thing that did not change.
The overall battle prowess of the players was much higher than that of the Heavenly Mechanic Army.
The artificial intelligence system retreated defensively, choosing to fight a protracted battle, reducing the degree of battle damage, and then looking for an opportunity to counterattack.
However, the artificial intelligence system did not understand the players at all. It could only roughly judge the players' battle prowess to formulate a counterattack plan.
However, how could the artificial intelligence system know the players' secrets?
In terms of endurance, the players had never been afraid of anyone.
This was because as soon as the players died, they would be kept into the Artifact Space by Lu Wu to nourish their souls for three hours, and then they would be thrown into the battlefield again.
Since the beginning of the Beiqi Hegemony Struggle, the players had always been happy to see an evenly matched battle.
This was because an evenly matched battle was an advantage to the players.
After all, there was a huge difference between the consumption of soul coins and the harvest. A protracted battle was a process for the players to earn soul coins.
Therefore, the artificial intelligence system that controlled this world was wrong from the beginning.
The players were not ordinary cultivators, and they could not formulate a counterattack plan based on the standard of an ordinary cultivator force.
What it was doing was exactly what the players wanted.
It could be said that it was not fighting against the players, but it was constantly filling up the players' wallets with soul coins.
Its plan to fight against the players was a process of spending money to feed the players.
No matter how smart the artificial intelligence system was, it would never have thought of this. At this time, the artificial intelligence system seemed to think that it was in control of the whole situation, and from time to time, it would seize the opportunity to launch a counterattack to deplete the players' battle prowess.
…
The battle lasted for five days and five nights. The players were still surrounded, and they were even forced back to the starting point a few times.
However, the players were bursting with joy in their hearts.
Up until now, they had harvested a large number of energy cores. If they sold them to the mall, they would be able to earn a lot of soul coins.
Therefore, the players did not feel tired at all. Instead, they hoped that the war would last a little longer.
However, five days had passed, and the mainframe of this world had already discovered the problem with the players. It also knew that the war plan that it had formulated was wrong.
Through the satellite monitoring, the artificial intelligence system was constantly watching the battlefield.
It had calculated the number of invading creatures. Due to the chaos of the battlefield and the cultivator force's ability to summon creatures or create clones, it could not come up with an accurate number. However, the approximate number was around 1.2 million.
This could be said to be extremely accurate, and it had already estimated the specific number of players.
In the war, whenever the mechanical army killed the players, the artificial intelligence system would show the number of enemy forces' battle losses. Up until now, the artificial intelligence system had calculated the number of 382,352.
However, at this moment, through the satellite observation, the overall number of players had remained at around 1.02 million. There was almost no decrease in members, and sometimes, it was even increasing.
Such a number change seemed extremely abnormal to the artificial intelligence system.
It was as if new creatures were constantly joining the battle, becoming one of them to fight against them.
In response, the artificial intelligence system began to analyze the situation.
Through observation and data access, it wanted to find out why this scene was happening that it could not understand.
One of the strong points of technology was analysis and data support.
However, the war had continued for another three days, and the artificial intelligence system still could not find any information that could explain this scene.
It had fallen into a state of incomprehension. Although it was still controlling the situation of the war, it no longer had any confidence in its decision to win.
In every battle, the artificial intelligence system would give a number of probability of victory after contact with the enemy force.
At the start of this war, the artificial intelligence system had given them a probability of victory: 98.612312415%.
Although the Players were very powerful, the AI estimated their chances of victory based on analyzing the direction of the war. Since this was their home ground, they had an endless supply of strategic resources, and the strength that the Players had shown in the battle against the mechanical army was not absolute suppression, which was why it gave them a probability of almost certain victory.
However, the war had continued for eight days, and this probability kept dropping due to the addition of many uncertain factors.
Until now, the artificial intelligence system's probability of victory had dropped to 57.921413%, and this number was still dropping.
In response, the artificial intelligence system tried to find a solution.
Since the leader of the Heavenly Armament Army, Zero, was not in this world at the moment, but had gone to the Glittering Jewel World in the outskirts, and the artificial intelligence system did not have the ability to cross the distant space to contact her, it was obviously unrealistic to ask for support.
It could only rely on its own judgment to win this blow.
In the subsequent war, the artificial intelligence system changed its battle strategy again and again, but the probability of victory kept dropping.
When it fell below 50%, the artificial intelligence system finally decided to take emergency measures.
Under absolute rationality, it made a choice and used the Extraterrestrial Rail Cannons.
This decision meant that it had given up on the mechanical army that was still entangled with the players.
As the 100 Rail Cannons moved, beams of light from the outskirts crashed into the area where Lu Wu and the players were.
At this moment, the sky was shrouded in blue. Before the attack landed, the horrifying energy had already hit them in the face, and the wind was howling.
All the players could not help but look up at the sky, then took a deep breath.
The moment this light beam touched the ground, even the players with godly bodies could not withstand it. The entire world trembled at this moment.
When the light dissipated, a deep pit with a diameter of 580 kilometers appeared on the ground. The underground magma flowed out of the cracks on the ground, and everything within sight had turned into a charred color.
After this attack, all the players, except for Lu Wu, were collectively sent back to the Artifact Space, and they looked at each other in dismay.
You died too?
You too? What a coincidence!
The atmosphere was a little awkward.
In the outside world, Lu Wu's clothes were tattered, and his body was covered in black. At this moment, he was looking at the deep pit below with a dumbfounded expression.
This is not going according to the rules. Suddenly using a big move, I am now a commander without an army?
