Chapter 193: Chapter 193: Mechanical Life, Powerful Mecha
These Demon race creatures were even more pitiful than those Undead monsters, most of them just stage 5 or stage 6 Magic Soldiers.
However, when Johnnie killed Demonic Creatures, even if they were weaker than him, he could still gain improvements.
Killing 100 Magic Soldiers would definitely grant one free attribute point, and killing 10 Demonic Guards would also grant 1 free attribute point...
And so on—there were no requirements regarding their strength.
Johnnie unleashed a massacre, leaving chaos in his wake, the ground littered with spoils of war.
The pressure on the city’s defending soldiers was greatly reduced, and they slaughtered as many Magic Soldiers as possible to level up.
Off in the distance, the players watched this scene in shock.
"Looks like we don’t even need to do anything. Johnnie guru is just too strong."
One person spoke up, a little disappointed.
Most of them had gathered here hoping to resist the Beast Wave and get some rewards.
But after the first two Beast Wave attacks, and now this army of Demonic Creatures, the city hadn’t been threatened at all.
"Should we try killing some Demonic Creatures too?" someone couldn’t help but ask.
Everyone’s eyes lit up—they were tempted, but still a bit hesitant.
"Will Johnnie guru think we’re stealing his kills?"
"I heard there were players before who tried to grab some loot in the chaos, but Johnnie guru wiped them out completely."
"Let’s just wait. There’s probably another Beast Wave coming."
Bzzzz...
Suddenly, a deep buzzing sound echoed out.
"What’s that noise?" someone asked in surprise.
"It sounds like machinery."
"No way. The Universe Continent is primitive—where would machinery come from?"
"Wait, look up at the sky!"
Someone cried out in shock.
In the hazy night, a dark mass loomed in the distant sky. They couldn’t make out its shape, but the mechanical rumble was unmistakable.
Rumble, rumble...
As the shadow drew closer, the roar of machinery filled the heavens.
"Is that... a flying city?" someone stared at the enormous shadow overhead, blocking out the sky like a massive city soaring above, heading straight for The Chinese City.
"How is that possible?" a warrior wiped his eyes, his face full of shock.
The energy needed to keep such a massive city flying must be insane. How could they possibly pull that off?
The rumbling echoed.
Johnnie also noticed the gigantic city.
"The Mechanical Race!" he frowned, recognizing the enemy approaching.
Roar!
A majestic dragon’s cry rang through the skies.
The Azure Dragon instantly revealed its true form, its huge body stretching hundreds of meters, rivaling the size of the mechanical city and radiating a powerful aura.
Whoosh!
A wild gale howled as the massive dragon tail whipped hard at the rapidly approaching city.
Boom!
A violent explosion rang out, the air itself trembling. The Azure Dragon’s enormous body and the mechanical city were both sent flying backward.
So strong!
Johnnie was shocked—the mechanical city had actually blocked an attack from a god.
Even though there was still power suppression on the Universe Continent and a god couldn’t unleash their full strength, that strike was still terrifying. No ordinary city should be able to withstand it.
Bzzzzz...
A loud buzzing noise sounded as the gigantic city began to break apart—not destroyed, but transforming into countless Mechanical Monsters, darkening the sky. There had to be over three hundred thousand of them.
"Kill!" A cold, emotionless mechanical voice echoed out. It came from a colossal humanoid Mechanical Monster. Its body was like a mountain, like a gigantic mecha, and its huge eyes flashed with red light.
Stage 9, a powerhouse!
Johnnie stared at that giant mecha. He could feel the powerful aura—it was definitely stage 9. But as for what quality of stage 9 exactly, he couldn’t tell.
Crash!
Countless members of the Mechanical Race moved instantly, charging straight into the army of Demonic Creatures and beginning a brutal slaughter.
Their target wasn’t just the soldiers—they wanted to massacre every living thing here.
Bzzzz bzzzz...
At that moment, another buzzing sound began. Countless tiny red bugs flew out of the Mechanical Monsters, swarming toward the corpses piled on the ground, devouring them like mad.
Corpse after corpse of Demonic Creatures was reduced to dust in an instant. A gentle breeze blew by, and they vanished completely.
These flying bugs were actually eating the flesh and bones!
Johnnie was stunned as he got a good look at their stats.
[Red-shelled Beetle: Stage 1, the Mechanical Race’s scavenger. Weak in strength, but can devour and decompose the energy from corpses to nourish both the Mechanical Race and themselves.]
The Red-shelled Beetles varied in strength, from tiny stage 1 up to stage 5.
Johnnie even saw one as big as a basketball—a stage 7 Red-shelled Beetle. But its stat description said the same thing: not good at fighting, only able to devour and break down energy from corpses.
Boom!
A fresh round of explosions rang out.
These Mechanical Monsters fought with bizarre methods and all kinds of weapons—some wielded lightsabers, others energy cannons—charging into the Demonic Creature army and slaughtering them like crazy.
Even the mighty Demon Generals were helpless before them, blasted apart by three stage 7 Mechanical Monsters working together.
Then, swarms of Red-shelled Beetles descended and devoured the Demon General’s corpse.
"Johnnie, be careful! These guys are weird!" Azure Dragon warned, its massive body roaring as it charged at the giant mecha.
Rumble...
Purple lightning danced in the sky, turning into a serpent of electricity that wrapped around the giant mecha.
Crackle, crackle...
Sparks flew, but the giant mecha was completely unscathed.
"Titan Race!" Azure Dragon was stunned. "Your body was actually forged from the god of the Titan Race!"
The Titan Race is incredibly powerful, with unbelievably tough bodies, and his lightning attack couldn’t hurt it at all.
"Die!" The cold mechanical voice rang out, as a massive lightsaber appeared in the giant mecha’s hand, slashing down hard.
"Hmph, even if you’re using a god’s body, there’s no way you’ve mastered divine laws!" Azure Dragon scoffed, lunging forward. But the next second, his eyes widened, and his expression changed dramatically.
He could sense a powerful law of strength—the Mechanical Monster had actually mastered the Titan Race god’s law of power.
The scariest part was that, in its current mechanical form, it couldn’t be classified as a god, so the suppression force of the Universe Continent had no effect on it.
Boom!
A thunderous crash sounded, blood splattering as Azure Dragon’s massive body was sent flying backward.
He was actually wounded!
Johnnie grew serious—this giant mecha was far more terrifying than it appeared on the surface.
"Azure Dragon, I’ll help you!" Black Tortoise roared, instantly revealing his true form—a giant dragon-turtle—charging straight at the giant mecha.
Maiev also acted decisively. Her Dark-Moon longbow trembled, releasing a rain of arrows.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, there was the sound of something slicing through the air. Johnnie jumped in surprise—a lightsaber was stabbing toward him at lightning speed.
It was a stage 7 Mechanical Monster.
"You’re asking for it!" Johnnie snapped, swinging the Void Sword.
Boom!
A deafening bang sounded. He felt a huge force slam into his sword, forcing him to stagger backward.
Even weirder, there was no damage number flashing above the Mechanical Monster’s head.
What the hell?
Johnnie stared in shock at the Mechanical Monster, which stood firm and unmoved.
With his current all-around attributes, he was definitely not weaker than a stage 7 powerhouse, plus he had the Cosmic Eclipse Blade’s passive stacks. He should be able to instantly kill a stage 7 monster.
"Johnnie, be careful. These mechanical lifeforms aren’t bound by the laws of the Universe Continent." Coco’s voice echoed in his mind.
Johnnie frowned and asked in his heart, "Can I kill it?"
"Yes, its weakness is the energy core, located in either the head or the chest. As long as you destroy the energy core, you can kill it." Coco’s voice sounded again.
Johnnie’s gaze shifted to the Mechanical Monster’s head and chest.
If it has a weak spot, that means it can be taken down.
"Rupture the Ground!" he growled, activating his Void Sword technique, swinging the greatsword straight at the Mechanical Monster’s head.
Clang!
The lightsaber blocked over its head, easily parrying his lethal strike.
Buzz!
But that wasn’t the end.
A buzzing sound rang out, a flash of cold light—eight flying swords shot out at once, stabbing at the Mechanical Monster’s head and chest.
Bang!
An explosion rang out and the Mechanical Monster’s head was blown to pieces.
Johnnie was blasted backward by the explosion’s force, and a damage number flashed above his head.
-120,000.
A hundred and twenty thousand damage—way higher than an ordinary stage 7 monster.
[Ding, you have defeated the Mechanical Race Battle Mecha. Mechanical Insight +1]
The prompt message appeared, and Johnnie felt puzzled.
Mechanical Perception—what the heck is that?
He didn’t feel any change in his attributes. It seemed like another kind of special hidden stat. Plus, after killing this monster, there was no experience prompt.
But his proficiency in The Technique of Swordsmanship for Controlling Swords could still increase.
Mechanical Battle Mecha should be the name of this monster. The Red-shelled Beetles are responsible for consuming the corpses, while these Battle Mecha are in charge of the fighting.
Johnnie didn’t dwell on it any longer and checked the loot dropped by the dead monster.
It was a faintly glowing energy crystal.
[Mechanical Energy Core: Special item. The Mechanical Race or anyone with mechanical talent can absorb and refine it.]
"Mechanical talent?" Johnnie frowned. He didn’t have mechanical talent, so he couldn’t use it, and he didn’t know what it was for.
Maybe Mechanical Perception has something to do with mechanical talent?
Johnnie put it away casually and kept killing Mechanical Monsters, stacking up Mechanical Perception Attribute to test out his theory.
Boom, boom...
Loud explosions rang out all around. The Mechanical Race monsters were tearing into the army of players, going on a wild slaughter.
Every one of these monsters had a mechanical body and insane defense. Even the weakest were stage 7—players didn’t stand a chance.
And you could only kill them by attacking their weak spots.
Johnnie immediately messaged Dylan privately: "Dylan, the Mechanical Monsters’ weakness is their head or their heart. Destroy the energy core and you can kill them."
"Got it." Dylan replied quickly and started commanding the army, changing tactics to target the Mechanical Monsters’ heads or hearts.
Bang, bang...
Occasionally explosions echoed across the battlefield. When the soldiers found the Mechanical Monsters’ weak points and teamed up, they could just barely take one down.
But the deadly blast when these things died was also causing heavy casualties among the soldiers.
And with the sheer number of Mechanical Monsters, these losses were nothing—it couldn’t slow them down at all.
Countless Mechanical Monsters surged toward the city walls.
Buzz!
A loud mechanical hum sounded as the Four Holy Guardians Array kicked into full power.
