Chapter 11: The Descent of the Mechanical Abyss, Others Fear, I Am Greedy!
Xia City Mechanical Abyss Monitoring Station.
[Warning!]
[Warning!]
[Warning!]
[100 li east of Xia City, in the Silent Wilderness of Sector 36, detection of Mechanical Abyss power!]
[100 li east of Xia City, in the Ghost Weeping Trench of Sector 37, detection of Mechanical Abyss power!]
[100 li east of Xia City, in the Ice Wolf Slope of Sector 35, detection of intense Mechanical Abyss power!]
[Please dispatch a commissioner to investigate!]
...
The sudden alerts shook the entire Mechanical Abyss Monitoring Station.
Such large-scale detection of the Mechanical Abyss power.
Is there a spreading rift from the Mechanical Abyss?
Or is a new Mechanical Abyss descending?
The Mechanical Abyss is not fixed; it migrates, first extending its rifts from one place to another and then moving entirely.
This process is very slow.
Enough for Xia City to respond.
But if a new Mechanical Abyss descends upon Xia City, it will undoubtedly be an unimaginable disaster!
...
Zhao Kaimen, the office director of the Xia City Mechanical Abyss Monitoring Station, had his face suddenly turn dark and grim, veins bulging on his forehead as he gripped his hand tightly.
"Damn it! Xia City is just a small place, how could there be an uprising of Mechanical Abyss power!"
"Quick, go notify the Chairman!"
No need for his words, all the staff had already started using their communicators to urgently contact the Xia City Mechanical Man Association and other powerful entities.
"The situation is urgent!"
"Everyone, immediately now, drop everything in your hands!"
"Join the online meeting to discuss decisions! It's better if you can come to the association!"
Upon receiving the news, Zhang Lichun, the Chairman of the Xia City Mechanical Man Association, couldn't remain calm, took a deep breath, and immediately issued orders.
At the same time, the energy power core, like a heart, contracted fiercely.
Three locations experience an uprising of Mechanical Abyss power!
One of them was even identified as having especially intense Mechanical Abyss power!
Even if no new Mechanical Abyss is descending, just the spread of three Mechanical Abyss rifts, this intense Mechanical Abyss power could spawn countless exceptionally powerful Steel Beasts!
When the Steel Beast Tide arrives, who could withstand it!
Worse still, Xia City might fall because of this!
Thinking this, Zhang Lichun hastily connected to the Provincial City for help!
...
"What happened, Chairman?"
A luxurious red sports car, like a flash of red lightning, raced to the front of the Xia City Mechanical Man Association, instantly transforming into a stunningly beautiful female Mechanical Man.
Drawing the shocked gazes of countless onlookers.
Some male Mechanical Men became restless.
Although they had turned into Mechanical Men, their previous tendencies had not disappeared.
They had never seen such a gorgeous and handsome female Mechanical Man, and for a moment, they were completely captivated.
"What are you looking at! Be careful, or I'll gouge your eyeballs out!"
"This is the Vice Chairman of the Xia City Mechanical Man Association!"
"Rumored to be an A-level Mechanical Man from the Provincial City, here for a gold plating!"
"What! Our Vice Chairman is very capable, a strong woman!"
With so few A-level advanced Mechanical Men in Xia City, her appearance caused exclamations to arise everywhere, with whispering all around.
A holographic projection appeared before her, featuring several Xia City bigwigs arranging a meeting.
"Xia An, the Mechanical Abyss power has surged; you don't need to attend the meeting, head to the outskirts at Sector 35 to inspect the specific situation."
Zhao Lichun told the young, beautiful A-level female Mechanical Man Vice Chairman.
Xia An, from the Provincial City, had visited various Mechanical Abyss sites and was knowledgeable about them.
"Okay!" Just about to enter the association's gate, hearing of the Mechanical Abyss power running amok, Xia An didn't dare delay, immediately turned around, transformed back into her vehicle form, becoming a streak of red lightning, heading towards the outer area of Sector 35.
...
"So powerful!"
"Oh my! Such speed! Like lightning!"
"Oh my! Sports car! Sports car! Is this an A-level Mechanical Man?
"Such speed, and the gleaming gloss on the Mechanical Man, must be of a high rank!"
"Isn't that the legendary beautiful Vice Chairman Xia An!"
Xia An sped towards the outskirts of Sector 35 at maximum speed, drawing exclamations from many onlookers.
They did not know yet that a disaster was about to descend.
Evil Dog Ridge,
Lin Liu and others, who were struggling to deal with a Steel Hyena, also noticed the commotion in the distance.
They saw a red lightning streak past not far from them.
It left everyone in awe.
"Vice Chairman Xia An, Rank A, sports car-type beauty Mechanical Man, Level 25, she must be one of the strongest people in Xia City in public."
Lin Changfeng's eyebrows were tightly knitted as he recognized the red lightning in the distance, feeling incredibly alarmed.
Such urgency from her probably meant that something serious had happened!
"She's that strong? Rank A, Level 25? When can we ever be as strong as her?" Wang Lishuo and Zhang Chao were all extremely excited, their eyes filled with longing.
"Hurry and evacuate!"
Sure enough, Xia An's voice from afar changed Lin Changfeng's expression, and he quickly told the students:
"Hurry up and evacuate! Something big has happened! Quick!"
"But... Xu Gu is still inside, should I remind him?" As Lin Liu was about to contact Xu Gu, it made Zhang Chao and Wang Lishuo feel even more uncomfortable.
Lin Changfeng nodded.
"Damn! Can't get through!" Lin Liu bit her lip, extremely worried.
"He might be fighting a Steel Beast, try again." Lin Changfeng suggested.
Suddenly, a dull roar of monsters erupted from afar, followed by thousands of roars that made Lin Changfeng tremble with fear, his face filled with horror:
"Let's go! He has over a dozen Level 30 bodyguards taking care of him, he won't be in danger! Let's move fast! If we don't leave now, we won't be able to leave!"
Zhang Chao and the others, also frightened by the earth-shattering roars, had weak legs and pale faces, nodding helplessly. They followed Lin Changfen, frantically fleeing outward.
...
The power from the Mechanical Abyss had descended, causing an unimaginable riot of Steel Beasts.
Panic was spreading.
However, these had nothing to do with Xu Gu.
He watched the two-headed wolf-shaped Mechanical Monsters in front of him, their bodies twined with several strands of black aura.
Xu Gu's smile was broad and radiant.
[Name: Twin-Head Flame Wolf]
[Level: 25]
[Rank: Elite]
[Firepower: 900; Defense: 700]
[Description: A mechanical monster from the outskirts of the Mechanical Abyss, though the weakest among Steel Beasts, they are outstanding! Capable of attacking with two heads and spewing high temperature flames that can easily melt steel!]
Although the Creation Atlas did not have records of these monsters since its monster information needs to be uploaded by the Linkers themselves.
Yet, Xu Gu's system had provided the information.
"Although they are just Elite Monsters and only Level 25, what matters is their abundance!"
Xu Gu's eyes sparkled.
"Roar!" "Roar!" "Roar!"
A wave of Twin-Head Flame Wolves surged forward, their fangs flashing with a cold light, spewing high-temperature flames, their presence was extremely intimidating.
Even a Level 30, Rank B Mechanical Car, without powerful accessories, would shudder facing this scene!
However,
Their formidable attacks, when landing on Xu Gu's energy shield, didn't even cause a ripple.
Not breaking the defense at all!
"After you guys are done, it's my turn!" Xu Gu, with immense terrifying power bursting from his huge frame, with energy turbines spinning, emitting Divine Light, like a war god, wielding a Light Saber crackling with Thunderbolt, stormed into the midst of the wolves.
"Roar!" "Roar!" "Roar!"
The roars soon turned into pitiful screams.
Explosions sounded incessantly.
The Twin-Head Flame Wolves, within a short duration, lay dead and wounded everywhere.
Not one could withstand a single slash.
Xu Gu enjoyed the thrill of slaughtering monsters, feeling an endless stream of Crystal Energy entering his body, feeling spiritually refreshed, his aura growing stronger.
He even began to venture deeper!
Others feared, he was greedy!
A mere Level 1 Mechanical Abyss, not worth mentioning!
...
"Damn!"
On her way, Xia An encountered a large number of Steel Beasts' obstructions, these Steel Beasts, already a dominant force in the nearby region, had become even stronger under the dense influence of the Mechanical Abyss's power in a short time!
Even she was having difficulty going deeper.
"I hope I can even reach the core area." Xia An was already somewhat worried.
The Steel Beasts were getting stronger too quickly.
She ventured deep alone, fearing danger, but if she couldn't obtain the data, Xia City would be at risk.
"What should I do?" As Xia An was contemplating,
She saw in the distance, in a mountain ravine, a colossal behemoth, about fourteen to fifteen meters high, crushing a group of Mechanical Monsters enveloped in dense Mechanical Abyss power.
"Who is this? So strong!"
Watching the behemoth waving a Thunderbolt Light Saber, slashing one Mechanical Monster with each swipe, filled with a violent aesthetic, Xia An felt her heart quiver, her breathing quickened, her eyes flashing with a peculiar light.
