Chapter 1281
Mechanical Stream
On the side of the Three-Race Alliance, a graceful and dazzling figure slowly flew out from the giant purple sphere. From the ancient battleship, two colossal beings also emerged, while the oval black sphere remained motionless. The mere presence and oppressive aura emanating from these three Universe Overlords intensified the spatial distortion, causing distant desert planets and dying stars to explode instantly with a 'bang,' like fireworks. On the human side, the hatch of the Tomb Mausoleum Boat opened, and two figures flew out, standing atop the vessel, gazing into the distance. "Buzz~~" Vast golden light, mixed with countless drifting cold sand particles, appeared across every area of the battlefield, enveloping a region with a diameter of ten light-years. These were precisely the 'Golden Kingdom' and the 'Snow Sand Sea.' Although the Three-Race Alliance was formidable, they possessed no domain-type supreme treasures, so they could only watch as Luo Feng displayed his might. "Shocking Demon Ancestor, Dream Demon Ancestor, we meet again." Peng Gong Master gazed at the opposing faction, his voice thundering. With Luo Feng's assistance, his voice resonated through every corner of the domain. "And this must be the Insectoid Queen! I've always heard that when the Insectoid Queen fights in the Universe Ocean, she always hides within her so-called Queen's Nest. Many powerful beings say the Insectoid Queen is a coward, only daring to hide in her supreme treasure palace. Yet, today she has emerged. How truly rare! It seems the outside world was mistaken; the Insectoid Queen isn't afraid of death at all." The Insectoid Queen possessed a palace-type supreme treasure, known as the 'Queen's Nest,' also referred to as the 'Queen's Palace' or 'Queen's Abode,' among other names. "Peng Gong, you're mistaken there. The Insectoid Queen is indeed afraid of death," Luo Feng quipped from the side. "It's just that in the Original Universe, attack power can only reach the peak of Tier 6, posing no life-threatening danger. So, naturally, the Insectoid Queen isn't afraid." "Oh, I see," Peng Gong called out. The two played off each other. Immediately, various laughs and roars erupted from the human faction. The Three-Race Alliance was clearly indignant... how dare they mock the Insectoid Queen! But they were helpless, as the entire domain was controlled by Luo Feng. Even if the Three-Race Alliance tried to speak, their voices simply couldn't propagate. "You won't speak! Your voices won't spread!" On the human side, Luo Feng and Peng Gong Master played off each other, their voices echoing through the space around every powerful being in both factions. Meanwhile, many of the curses and angry shouts from the Three-Race Alliance were completely blocked and unable to spread. "Kill!" This was utterly humiliating; they weren't even allowed to defend themselves. The first to lose his temper was the Mechanical Race Father God. The noble Mechanical Race Father God, whom every Mechanical Race powerhouse respected immensely—even if the Father God commanded them to die, the Mechanical Race Universe Masters would not disobey. In such an environment, how could the Mechanical Race Father God not be proud? Now, being mocked with 'ugly' and other insults by Luo Feng and Peng Gong, he naturally flew into a rage. Since defense was impossible, they would let their fists do the talking! "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" From the massive black oval sphere, hunched figures suddenly shot out—a staggering 10,081 of them—instantly charging towards the Tomb Mausoleum Boat. Each of these hunched figures stood approximately ten thousand kilometers tall, entirely forged from metal, possessing eight metallic arms and two legs. Their waists were bent and stooped, and their heads were adorned with braids that hung around them. "The Mechanical Race Father God has gone berserk!" Peng Gong Master exclaimed in surprise, immediately transmitting a message to Luo Feng beside him. "This Mechanical Race Father God's puppet legion actually has 10,081 units! According to our intelligence, when the Mechanical Race Father God roamed the Universe Ocean, his strongest deployment was only 9,000 puppets." "It's simple," Luo Feng transmitted with a solemn expression. "In the Universe Ocean, the environment is extremely harsh and dangerous, and other Universe Overlords are not to be trifled with. In a battle, he might lose some puppets! Each puppet... is extremely valuable, even more precious than an ordinary supreme treasure. The Mechanical Race Father God wouldn't bear to lose them. But in the Original Universe, the maximum combat power is only the peak of Tier 6, so he doesn't worry about losing puppets, and thus naturally goes all out." Luo Feng stared at the roaring puppet legion flying towards them. Since the two factions were quite far apart, even at near light speed, it would take some time, so Luo Feng wasn't in a hurry. "Mechanical puppets..." "The Mechanical Race Father God seems to be employing the 'Swarm Tactic' from the 'Mechanical Stream' of ancient civilizations," Luo Feng mused. Having inherited the legacy of Duan Dong River and reviewed vast amounts of inherited information, he naturally understood a great deal about the Mechanical Stream. Compared to the Mechanical Stream of ancient civilizations, the Mechanical Race Father God's methods were actually quite 'low-end.' Because the Mechanical Race Father God couldn't create overly powerful machines, he could only compensate with 'quantity'! Since the Mechanical Stream... possessed 'replicability,' it was well-suited for the Swarm Tactic. However, truly high-end existences, the elite factions within the Mechanical Stream, typically created singular mechanical treasures with immense power, like the Tomb Mausoleum Boat or even the Universe Boat! "Although it's low-end," "In ancient civilizations, powerful beings could easily sweep them away. But in the Universe Ocean, especially in the Original Universe, I truly have no way to deal with it. The Mechanical Race Father God is also an intelligent lifeform by origin, and he can push the Swarm Tactic to its extreme." Luo Feng felt a headache coming on. He knew with a single glance. The materials used for these 10,081 mechanical puppets were all extremely precious, estimated to be at least at the peak supreme treasure level! Although each puppet didn't consume much material (the puppets themselves were small but could grow or shrink under divine power, like the Tomb Mausoleum Boat or other supreme treasures), their combined value was probably close to that of a single supreme treasure. They couldn't be destroyed by simply attacking them. Absorb them with the Star Tower? Or the Black Prison Tower? Under the full control of the Mechanical Race Father God... the 10,081 puppets could act as one, combining their strength to easily break free from any absorption power. If they could be easily absorbed... the Mechanical Race Father God wouldn't have relied on this tactic to roam the Universe Ocean with hardly any puppet losses. "Enter the Dark Universe," Luo Feng transmitted. "Alright," Peng Gong Master replied. The Dark Master in the distance also received the message. Boom! Boom! Boom! The Tomb Mausoleum Boat and the Black Prison Tower successively accelerated to light speed, directly entering the Dark Universe. "I knew they'd enter the Dark Universe!" the Shocking Demon Ancestor roared. "Enter the Dark Universe!" Heavens, his voice could finally spread! The Dark Universe. Universe Overlords could all quickly reach speeds of ten or even a hundred times the speed of light. Therefore, fighting them in the Original Universe space was a disadvantage. Luo Feng and the human faction had no Universe Overlords, so naturally, they chose to enter the Dark Universe. Moreover, after entering the Dark Universe... at critical moments in battle, they could choose to stop, instantly returning to the Original Universe. "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" Luo Feng and Peng Gong Master had barely entered the Dark Universe for less than a second when the vast puppet legion appeared. "Roar~~" "Roar~~" Each mechanical puppet let out a roar, and each was simultaneously controlled by burning divine power. Just as Luo Feng and his allies controlled Psychic Weapons... this was how the Mechanical Race Father God controlled his puppet legion! And as the only Universe Overlord who was an intelligent lifeform developed to its extreme. His multi-tasking ability was unparalleled in the Universe Ocean! Intelligent lifeforms like Babata, even when weak, possessed extreme computational power. Once they became Immortals... their computational power far surpassed that of Immortals from other races. Not to mention the unique Mechanical Race Father God; even if he used one percent of his control ability, it would exceed the control capabilities of other ordinary Universe Overlords. Therefore— The 10,081 puppets, each seemingly possessing its own soul, swiftly split into two teams, directly encircling and attacking Luo Feng and Peng Gong Master. "Boom~~~" Approximately 5,000 puppets simultaneously unleashed a punch towards Luo Feng. Each punch was exquisitely precise, and they combined directly to form a vast, world-ravaging strike... its power caused Luo Feng's expression to change. He didn't even dare to recklessly resist. Although his armor was the Mad Demon God-Slaying Armor, his divine body was still a hundred times weaker than other 'peak Universe Masters.' "Block!" Luo Feng didn't even have time to retreat into the Tomb Mausoleum Boat. The Blood Shadow Blade in his hand instantly grew massive, like a giant blade-shield, blocking in front of him. "Break!" Not far away, Peng Gong Master also roared, swinging the Yan Jun Staff in his hand, meeting the attack with an attack of his own. Boom! Boom! Both were simultaneously struck, retreating several steps on the Tomb Mausoleum Boat. In terms of defense, the armor formed by the extended Yan Jun Staff of Peng Gong Master was in no way inferior to the Mad Demon God-Slaying Armor. Furthermore, Peng Gong Master was a Universe Master with a ten thousand times gene level... in fact, his divine body defense was even slightly stronger than Luo Feng's! "Hmm, although the power is strong, it's not as monstrous as expected," Peng Gong Master transmitted to Luo Feng. "Suffering a single attack from approximately 5,000 puppets, it doesn't even feel like a peak Tier 6 attack." If it were a peak Tier 6 attack, Luo Feng and he should have been thrown backward, not merely retreating a few steps. "It's not as strong as anticipated; perhaps all ten thousand puppets combined would only rival a peak Tier 6 attack," Luo Feng transmitted. "It seems this is the suppression of the Original Universe! If merely relying on multi-tasking could allow each puppet to exert its maximum power, then the Original Universe's restrictions would be useless." "It seems the threat of the Swarm Tactic is limited," Peng Gong Master secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
