People with different clothes, different temperaments, and different backgrounds gathered here, inevitably creating some friction and curiosity.
Some people are confrontational from the moment they meet, while others are friendly and communicative from the very first meeting.
"Commander Lin, Dr. Elena, it's an honor to meet you." Dr. Carrie from the Lighthouse greeted Lin Zhenguo and Elena, who had been transferred from the Jiuchuan base.
Elena and Carrie chatted for a while and immediately became like best friends, their conversation revolving around research and biological discussions.
Elena Bo's gaze involuntarily drifted to the Hope and the giant skeletons entwined with glowing moss around it, her eyes flashing with the fanaticism unique to researchers.
"Master Jinghui, how have you been?" Chen Yuan greeted Master Jinghui as he approached.
"Amitabha Buddha, Benefactor Chen Yuan's integration of the human race is a merit that will last for generations."
Looking at the chaotic scene before her, Jinghui clasped her hands together, her tone somewhat complicated.
Suddenly, several figures were seen fighting in the sky.
"Hey, big guy, I heard you're really strong?"
For some reason, Shi Potian suddenly started fighting with Shan Da and the others, also wanting to weigh the strength of these powerful ground fighters.
Shan grinned, and the metal gauntlets of the Chongxiao mechs clashed together, producing a dull thud: "What, you from the Moon Palace, want to test the strength I honed in this wasteland?"
"All of you come together, one of you isn't enough."
Shi Potian laughed loudly, and the thrusters on the back of the Xingtian-type armor suddenly shot out, sending his huge fist, accompanied by high-frequency vibrations, crashing directly towards Shan Da.
Undeterred, Shan Da instantly activated his Mountain Stance, and Chongxiao firmly rooted itself to the ground, meeting the attack head-on with a punch of his own.
Shandong University's teammates, worried that he might get hurt, went up to help, which drew the attention of everyone below.
On the other side, Xu Tong's Gale transformed into blue lightning and engaged in a friendly sparring match with Ye Lan from the Moon Palace.
The two engaged in a dazzling contest of extreme speed and stealth.
As long as these sparring matches don't result in death or damage to critical facilities, Chen Yuan will ignore them.
This helps break down barriers, fosters familiarity, and also promotes skill development under pressure.
At the same time, the scientists at the Jiuchuan base and the research team brought by Su Chan from the Moon Palace hit it off almost immediately.
"Where have you progressed in your research on the evolutionary logic of ASH?"
"We have discovered a potential link between the source of life and quantum states, as long as..."
"Look at this. It's a unique enzyme we extracted from a king-level animal that can greatly enhance the energy conduction efficiency of biological tissues."
“Brilliant! If we could combine our technology with your bioengineering…”
They huddled together, data streams scrolling wildly on the holographic screen, discussing animatedly, occasionally erupting in exclamations of sudden realization or heated debates.
Xia Dou, who had just come down from the battlefield, subconsciously shivered when she saw this group of mad scientists with shining eyes who wanted to take everything apart and study it. She pulled Erica and quietly shrank to the back of the crowd.
"Hurry up, hurry up. I feel like they're looking at us like we're lab rats," Xia Dou muttered to herself.
Chapter 277 Activating the Mechanical War God
Upon hearing this, Erica nodded in deep agreement.
"Especially the woman in the white coat (Elena) and the one wearing smart glasses (Su Chan), it feels like they're about to pull out a syringe any second."
The two girls reached a consensus and quickly fled the area, seeking refuge with Xu Tong and Mo Cheng. They felt it was safer to stay with these straightforward warriors.
Chen Yuan walked alone to the bow of the Hope, his consciousness sinking into the system interface, where a long string of dizzying numbers was clearly visible:
Total Survival Points: Over 148 million!
This is the rich reward obtained after integrating almost all the remaining human forces on Earth, killing and repelling countless Devouring Beasts, especially many Emperor-level beings.
This is not just a number, but a key to the future.
A genuine smile finally appeared on Chen Yuan's face.
"Enough... finally enough," he muttered to himself. It had been so difficult.
He brought up the system shop, his gaze sweeping over the dazzling array of items, and directly locked onto the ultimate icon that had been grayed out but was now lit up.
【Mechanical War God: A superplanetary-level strategic mothership and ecological recycling fortress, possessing the pinnacle of known technology and some unknown black spots, its very existence is a mobile civilization】
【Mechanical Warrior - Full Version】
[Exchange Requirements: 128000000 Survival Points]
No more weighing the pros and cons, because it was already decided last time.
Chen Yuan communicated with Chen Xin: "Exchange."
[Ding! 128000000 Survival Points consumed to successfully redeem the Mechanical War God - Full Version!]
[Dimensional projection and matter recombination are now initiating... Deployment coordinates: Pre-defined airspace outside Dragon Bone Village.]
The moment the system notification sound ended, the sky changed dramatically.
The already gray sky suddenly darkened, as if it had entered the dead of night.
Then, an extremely heavy sense of oppression, like tangible mercury, poured down from the heavens, enveloping everyone present.
All sound ceased at that moment.
The next instant, everyone except Chen Yuan felt as if their hearts were being squeezed by an invisible giant hand, their breathing became heavy, and they involuntarily looked up at the sky that had turned as black as ink.
A higher dimension exists, showcasing advanced technology in a form that is currently incomprehensible to everyone.
The next second, a point of light appeared in the center of the pitch-black sky, which was like a curtain.
It was not a star, but a rapidly expanding, extremely complex geometric structure of light and shadow.
A projection from a higher dimension, carrying incomprehensible laws and power, pierced the boundary between reality and illusion in the blink of an eye, and began to frantically absorb the surrounding matter and energy, carrying out a matter recombination that exceeded the speed of light.
Countless tiny nanounits, nanobugs, nanorobots, degenerate matter flowing from unknown dimensions, and a vast, ocean-like, deep blue energy...
All of these, under the guidance of that geometric light and shadow, construct an unimaginable behemoth in a way that surpasses everyone's comprehension.
All that could be seen was the emergence of massive lines, followed by the outlines of feet and legs; the height of the ankles alone exceeded that of the main hull of the Hope.
Next was the torso covered in thick, dark black armor. Dark blue energy veins spread across the surface of the armor like living things, slowly lighting up and shining brightly.
Broad, mountain-like shoulders, a majestic, fully covered head... the giant V-shaped observation window is like a god opening his eyes, coldly overlooking the vast earth.
The whole process lasted less than a minute, but everyone present witnessed it, and it felt like an eternity had passed.
When the last armor plate was in place and the last energy line was connected, the Mechanical War God came to life.
A colossal steel structure, 1200 meters tall, stands majestically outside Dragonbone Village.
Its shoulders disappeared into the clouds, casting a shadow that completely covered the entire Dragonbone Village and the surrounding settlements, even extending into the distant mountains.
The very existence of the Mechanical War God is a challenge to the rules of physics. Everyone looked at each other, and for a moment, no one spoke.
Quiet.
Deathly silence.
Everyone gaped, their pupils contracted, and their minds went blank, as if they had lost the ability to think.
What's this?
miracle?
Hallucination?
Or... the final judgment of the apocalypse?
They thought that such a large spaceship was already outrageous enough, but they never expected that there would be even larger technological creations.
"Is this still a mecha?"
Mark was the first to come to his senses, and said in a trembling voice.
He had seen the Hope's magnificence, but in the face of this steel behemoth, the Hope suddenly became a child's toy.
"My... Buddha..."
Master Jinghui was completely unaware that the prayer beads in his hand had fallen to the ground. He had seen all kinds of storms in his life, but right now he was in a state of mental lapse.
Bai Yuekui's face was also full of disbelief. The energy level was far beyond her comprehension, the technology was of a higher dimension, and the origin was probably comparable to that of a god.
Commander Lin Zhenguo and Dr. Elena stood frozen in place. As authorities in the field of science and technology, they felt the technological gap represented by this creation more than anyone else. It was a field that human civilization could not reach in this century.
Xuanyuan Jing's eyes widened, his heart filled with shock and disbelief. He felt so insignificant in front of this colossal creature.
Barton muttered, "What the hell is this thing?"
"The Steel Giant?"
"If this giant can move, what are we afraid of regarding the beast tide?"
"Long live the City Lord!"
"Lord of Shadows! Lord of Shadows!!"
"Lord of the city, I kneel before you, please protect your people."
Chen Yuan looked at the boiling crowd below and gave a helpless wry smile. He then broadcasted his message throughout the entire village via the communication channel:
"Everyone, come on over and have a look at our new home."
Mark and the others entered the interior through a huge passage opened at the foot of the Mechanical War God in a daze, and were once again deeply shocked.
This is not a giant mech at all.
This is clearly a mobile, highly developed, modern city.
The space inside is very large, with many areas.
Residential area: Under an ecological dome simulating natural light, there are well-planned and well-equipped apartment buildings, wide streets, and even parks and water features, with fresh air.
Ecological Agriculture Zone: Huge vertical farms stacked one on top of another, with soilless crops thriving under artificial light, exuding the breath of life.
Industrial manufacturing zone: The massive automated production lines are silent, but anyone who visits can feel the terrifying productivity they contain, which is definitely faster than manual assembly lines.
The advanced equipment at the Research and Medical Center thrilled Dr. Elena and Su Chan, among other scientists, so much so that they trembled with excitement, as if they had discovered a new continent. They exclaimed that they would spend the entire night touring the facility.
Energy Center: The core chaotic-level vacuum zero-point energy reactor is emitting stable and powerful energy fluctuations. The heat emitted by the light is so intense that people with strength below the third rank cannot get close.
"This is simply a kingdom of gods!"
