Deep Sea Submergence!

[Warm reminder: The plot ahead is especially exhausting. If you don't understand it, you can retrieve it again from your brain's storage and think about it. Those below 16 should watch with parental guidance. If you are a university student, you can stop thinking.]

At 11 pm, Lin Chen's team of walrus mechas returned to the beach near the Hegemony Zero with 1,000 tonnes of energy.

At this moment, the Hegemony Zero was surrounded by small engineering mechas with upgraded systems.

They were continuously fishing out the fragments of the Lava Beast mecha from the sea.

Then, through the tools they carried, they processed these metal fragments a second time and attached them to the Hegemony Zero in a strange way.

Rather than saying they were attached, it was better to say that they were being fused.

This was because the moment the metal fragments entered Hegemony Zero, the appearance of the mecha there changed.

From the originally smooth metal shell, it became an armor filled with red quantum patterns!

Moreover, Lin Chen was pleasantly surprised to discover that these patterns were flowing like lava, and were just like a human pulse!

And this was only the tip of the iceberg. One could imagine how terrifying it would be after it was completely upgraded to Level 3!

Although he really wanted to test the performance of the Hegemony Zero now, the current mecha was still in the state of being upgraded. It would take another 13 hours to complete the upgrade.

Moreover, he had more important things to do!

It was now the 10th of March. At six in the morning on the 14th of March, the cyber beasts would riot for some reason and a large-scale cyber beast tide would erupt.

When the time came, the densely packed cyber beasts would attack the city, just the steel city walls would not be able to stop them.

Therefore, he had to take advantage of these four days to use the ability of the Hegemony Zero to create an army of cyber beasts!

And he had to start right away!

He calculated the number of mechas he had on hand. There were about 70 C-grade walrus mechas, 100 C-grade crab mechas, and one B-grade giant crab mecha.

With mecha beasts of this scale, coupled with Abyss Dragon No. 1 and Condor No. 1, even an ordinary S-grade could fight it!

As for the damaged Thunder Overlord and Apocalypse No. 1, their repair work still needed to wait for Hegemony Zero to be upgraded before they could use the mecha store.

Therefore, Lin Chen could only temporarily unload 1,000 tonnes of energy on the beach.

Then, he began to think about how to collect enough energy cores in a short period of time.

In other words, how to find the most cyber beasts.

However, ever since the Cyber Crisis happened on the 7th of March, almost all the cyber beasts in the city had been wiped out by the cyber people.

Furthermore, the World Cyber Alliance had even issued a reward of energy cores.

Each energy core could be exchanged for food, water, and any other resources.

Therefore, under the guidance of benefits, the cyber people in the city naturally would not let go of any cyber beast. The speed at which they cleaned up was even faster than the frequency at which the sea monster shook its shoulders.

Therefore, under such circumstances, the intelligent cyber beasts naturally hid in the dark, while some hid in the mountains.

Therefore, in the mountains, people could always hear all kinds of sounds.

Originally, Lin Chen wanted to go up the nearby mountain range to hunt mutated beasts and snatch the energy cores.

However, it was useless. His current cyber army were masters in the water.

"Wait… in the water?"

With this thought in mind, Lin Chen turned to look at the vast sea where the Hegemony Zero stood.

If there was a place with the most creatures in this world, it had to be the ocean!

The ocean occupied 70% of the entire planet!

The creatures in the sea were even more strange!

There were tens of thousands of them!

Most importantly, there were countless huge creatures in the sea!

If he was lucky, he might be able to obtain unexpected gains!

"Looks like I'm really inseparable from the ocean."

Lin Chen could not help but laugh bitterly. He had been fighting in the sea since the beginning, and he managed to reach land. In the end, his mecha was upgraded and he returned to the sea again after going around in circles.

"But this is good too. I can test Abyss Dragon No. 1."

However, before he went out to sea, he had to make sure that nothing went wrong.

"Star, activate Condor No. 1's highest alert state. During the time I enter the sea, any creature that approaches the energy or the Hegemony Zero with hostility can be directly eliminated."

"Oh right, leave that B-grade giant crab mecha behind too."

After pondering for a long time, Lin Chen decided to leave Condor No. 1. and the giant crab mecha on the shore.

After all, Condor No. 1 was an invincible mecha in the air. It might be as useless in the water as a cute cat.

He might as well let it guard the upgrade of Hegemony Zero and the energy on the shore. This would make Lin Chen worry less.

Originally the giant crab mecha was a hairy crab. It did not seem appropriate for this river crab to run into the sea, so he let it stay.

[Received, the order has been conveyed—]

With Star's response, Condor No. 1 flew out and leapt into the sky before disappearing.

This was Condor No. 1's unique stealth system. By adjusting the air temperature and humidity in the atmosphere, it could adapt to the surrounding environment like a chameleon and hide itself.

After giving the order, Lin Chen could finally enter the sea at ease.

This time, he decided to go into the sea personally.

After all, autopilot mecha did not have a human brain that knew how to adapt to changes, let alone think carefully.

Moreover, he also wanted to experience Abyss Dragon No. 1.

Lin Chen did as he said. Without any hesitation, he started to work on the nano platform on his right arm.

Beep beep beep.

His body slowly began to reassemble his mecha. Quantum ripples surrounded his body.

Gradually, his vision began to blur. After a while, his vision became clear again, but his vision had already increased by a hundred times, and his body had been replaced by a mecha.

At this moment, he was Abyss Dragon No. 1!

Lin Chen casually moved his limbs and this instantly surprised him.

The adaptability of Abyss Dragon No. 1 was even higher than the Hegemony Zero!

He could do very delicate movements, even stretching out his ring finger and bending his fingers.

It was as if this was his own body!

After familiarizing himself with the mecha again, Lin Chen did not hesitate at all and headed straight into the depths of the sea.

It wasn't until the seawater completely submerged his body that Lin Chen started the tortuous engine and continued to go deeper into the deep sea area.

Those walrus mechas and crab mechas also lined up neatly and followed closely behind him.

…..

At this moment, in a building in the suburbs.

There were several mecha warriors holding weapons and guarding.

However, these mecha warriors looked a little ferocious.

Rather than calling them warriors, they were more like mutated beasts…

In the building, there were two sofas and a table.

Two familiar figures were sitting on the sofa and talking.

"Are you serious?!"

"Of course, Welldeep Sir. The warriors on our side use this thing. As long as ordinary humans consume this modified energy core, they can become invincible mecha warriors, even stronger than those top-notch cyber people!"

He waved the energy core in his hand and looked at Welldeep with an evil expression.

The energy core in his hand was different from the energy core taken out from ordinary mecha beasts. It emitted waves of soul-devouring light around it, filled with the aura of death.

It even sent a chill down one's spine!

"This…?"

Welldeep looked at the item in front of him and hesitated.

"What's wrong, Mr. Welldeep? If you don't want your Choebon to perish, this is your best option."

"And even though it looks scary, if you really experience what it's capable of, you'll realize how precious it is."

"If you're lucky, you can even kill an A-grade cyber beast."

Welldeep was indeed tempted when he heard that.

Putting aside the side effects, just the abilities of the mutated mecha warriors he saw outside were already those of standard A-grade cyber people.

A-grade cyber people were all top-notch existences in the World Cyber Alliance, but the person in front of him was actually using them as bodyguards!

This was absolutely extravagant!

He finally understood why they had publicly fallen out.

Seeing that Welldeep was tempted, he continued to tempt him.

"Welldeep Sir, if you don't want it now, it'll be too late to regret it when your own country falls."

That was true. His country was already struggling at death's door. All the humans in Choebon were gathered there. Once the government fell, what awaited them was destruction!

And there were his parents, wife, and daughter.

Therefore, this savior had to be him, and it can only be him!

Therefore, he stopped hesitating. He took a deep breath and took the energy core.

"Sure, sure."

He pulled out a box from under the table as if he had already prepared it. When he opened it, it was astonishingly all the same energy cores…
