Chapter 243

The Robots

The black metal passage was covered in dust, and the previous laser fire had only left slight marks on its floor. Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~~ The immense force was slowly but steadily pushing against the gate. At this end of the passage, Luo Feng's entire body was rapidly enveloped by his Moyun Combat Armor, even his head completely covered! At first glance, Luo Feng resembled a blood-red sculpture. 'Charge!' Luo Feng lunged forward, rushing inward close to the ground! The Duntiansuo above him instantly transformed into the 'Heavy Mountain Shield'. Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Blinding laser beams instantly shot towards the Heavy Mountain Shield and Luo Feng! The moment it was struck, the Heavy Mountain Shield, under Luo Feng's control, immediately disintegrated into 365 blades! The numerous blades scattered, causing the laser passage's sensors to instantly identify multiple targets. More lasers lit up, firing at the myriad blades, and Luo Feng himself received 'attention' from two laser beams. Bang! Luo Feng was slammed onto the ground by the impact of the lasers. Then, he was blasted sideways to the left by a laser from the side! In an instant... Luo Feng was like a ping-pong ball, moving erratically under the laser bombardment. But he desperately controlled his mental force, urging himself forward! Forward! Forward! Whoosh! Luo Feng slid directly under the gate, which was propped open by the immense force, scraping the ground as he darted into the spaceship. 'Finally, I'm in!' Luo Feng felt a dull ache all over his body. At the same time, he sensed waves of 'grievance' from the Moyun Teng, as if it felt wronged by the continuous laser bombardment. Luo Feng couldn't help but chuckle, 'Stop pretending. At worst, I'll give you an extra meal later!' The blood-red patterns on his Moyun Combat Armor continuously flickered, seemingly excited. Swish! The immense force beside him suddenly vanished, and the gate slammed down again with a thud, hitting the metal floor. 'I've put away the immense force,' Babata said. Luo Feng looked around. He was now in a wide, straight passage. 'Babata, where do we go now?' Luo Feng had no idea what dangers lurked in this pitch-black passage. 'Haha, Luo Feng, you're already inside this Heilong Mountain X81 Spaceship. Don't worry, there's no danger now,' Babata said. 'Come on, hurry to the 'Command Room' and insert the 'signal device' into the spaceship's intelligent system interface. Only by connecting with the spaceship's AI can I figure out how to bypass its intelligent defenses and take control of it.' 'Understood.' Luo Feng nodded. At the same time, an object resembling a 'laptop memory card' abruptly appeared before him. Luo Feng quickly reached out and grabbed it. 'Just insert the golden end into the interface. Let's go to the Command Room,' Babata said. 'Directions,' Luo Feng thought. 'Left!' Under Babata's guidance, Luo Feng swiftly advanced through the Heilong Spaceship... ...The Command Room of the Heilong Mountain X81 Spaceship. It was pitch black! The moment Luo Feng scraped past the gate and entered the spaceship— Ding! The spacious Command Room instantly lit up. A man in a military uniform sat calmly in the center of the Command Room, and behind him stood three subordinates in black uniforms. Both the military man and his three black-uniformed subordinates were completely motionless... while the control panel screen in front of the Command Room lit up. XXXX... A large amount of Universal Galactic Script appeared on the screen. The translation read— 'Human Planetary-level Mental-Force User has intruded!' 'Threat level: Weak.' 'Execute... kill!' ...Meanwhile, in the Heilong Mountain X81 Spaceship, on the lowest deck, a sealed room suddenly lit up. Inside this sealed room, three metal robots stood motionless. These three metal robots were all about 2.1 to 2.2 meters tall, entirely black, with eyes made of red crystals. Ding! The moment the spaceship's intelligent system transmitted the command, the red crystal eyes of the three metal robots lit up. Click, click, click... Their internal energy systems rapidly activated, and simultaneously, the door to the sealed room automatically opened. Immediately, the three robots, in single file, transformed into three streaks of light and shot out of the room. They quickly reached the middle passage via the lower passage, while Luo Feng was currently on the staircase between the middle and upper passages. ...Luo Feng swiftly ascended the stairs to the upper passage. 'Luo Feng, three metal robots are rapidly closing in from behind!' Babata exclaimed. Luo Feng was startled, immediately darting backward to create some buffer distance. Staring at the staircase entrance, Luo Feng also felt a faint vibration coming from below, a tremor caused by rapid running and stomping on the ground. 'Babata, didn't you say... there was no danger once we entered this spaceship?' 'This spaceship has been submerged for over 800,000 years! To think it could still maintain robots and keep them operational until now, that's incredible!' Babata couldn't help but exclaim. 'The spaceship's owner must have left a massive energy reserve in the storage room to keep the ship running to this day.' Luo Feng, however, had no time to argue with Babata. Because... The metal robots were almost here! Boom! A black streak of light shot up the stairs to the upper passage. Luo Feng clearly saw the metal robot: its entire body was forged from black metal, and its eyes glowed red! Its fists, however, were disproportionately large compared to its body, like two massive sledgehammers! 'Break!' The Duntiansuo in front of Luo Feng had already transformed into the 'Mountain Drilling Cone'. The moment the robot charged up, the Mountain Drilling Cone lit up with 18 golden rays, rapidly coiling and rotating to converge at its tip! Roar~~~ Carrying a swirling air current and a piercing sound, the Mountain Drilling Cone instantly struck the metal robot's chest! Luo Feng was now a 'Planetary-level Third-tier' Mental-Force User, and his Duntiansuo had reached the 'second stage of the nine layers within the three major realms', driven by 18 streams of mental force! Even Hong or Lei Shen would be injured by such a blow! Bang! The metal robot was sent flying backward, slamming into the wall beside the staircase entrance. Whoosh! Whoosh! The other two robots also charged up. Boom! A heavy punch arrived before Luo Feng in a flash, while the Mountain Drilling Cone, having just blasted one robot away, didn't have time for a second strike. 'So fast,' Luo Feng thought, secretly alarmed. 'Much faster than my flying speed.' At the same time, a 'long whip' eerily emerged from Luo Feng's right hand, arcing to fiercely strike the metal robot's head! 'Snap!' As the metal robot was struck, its fist still slammed heavily into Luo Feng, but numerous layers of Moyun Teng leaves appeared on Luo Feng's body surface, one after another. Whoosh! Luo Feng was sent flying backward by the punch. As he flew back, his gaze turned cold... A blood-red fragment appeared before him, its edges incredibly sharp! 'Chihun Tongmu Fragment, Decapitate!' Instantly, 19 resilient streams of mental force, like nineteen tentacles, wrapped around the blood-red metal fragment. The nineteen streams of mental force immediately erupted with their strongest propulsive power! This caused the fragment's speed to surge instantly! Moreover, its extremely sharp and thin edge gave it astonishingly low air resistance. With the propulsion exceeding the resistance, naturally... It continuously accelerated! Whoosh! The blood-red fragment was astonishingly fast, directly slicing towards the neck of the third metal robot, aiming to sever its head! Clang! A harsh sound rang out, and sparks actually flew from the metal robot's neck. The 'Chihun Tongmu Fragment', which had been moving at an incredible speed, was instantly bounced away. That metal robot, struck by this powerful impact, also involuntarily flew backward. But Luo Feng's eyes widened, clearly seeing... The robot's neck barely had an indentation, not even a scratch. Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! The three robots transformed into three streaks of light and charged again, their three pairs of red crystal eyes devoid of any emotion. 'Babata, what the hell are these robots?' Luo Feng cried out in his mind. He had run out of options; even his ultimate move, the Chihun Tongmu Fragment, had no effect. He knew that, by his estimation... with the Mountain Drilling Cone, he might be able to contend with Planetary-level Seventh or Eighth-tier warriors. But with the 'Chihun Tongmu Fragment', which even Immortals found hard to damage, he might have a chance to harm a Star-level First-tier expert. Of course, that was assuming... the opponent stood still and let him attack. 'Babata, what do we do now?' Luo Feng quickly asked. 'Don't rush, don't rush, I'm working on it,' Babata replied hastily. 'You're working on it?' Luo Feng ignored everything else and turned to flee down the passage! However, his speed wasn't as fast as the three metal robots, so... Luo Feng extended two long vines from his hands. Whenever a metal robot caught up, he'd whip it! He used this method to slow them down! 'Damn it, I've reached the end.' Luo Feng's mental force clearly detected that there was nowhere left to run ahead. 'Huh?' Luo Feng paused, his mental force clearly detecting that the three metal robots behind him had all stopped, standing motionless. Luo Feng turned his head to look... and saw the three black metal robots standing perfectly still. 'Luo Feng, I've taken control of these three robots,' Babata said. 'Control?' Luo Feng was somewhat surprised. 'These metal robots are commanded by the spaceship's intelligent system via wireless signals. Since they're wireless signals... as long as the security level isn't too high, I can crack them. While you were fighting them just now, I was rapidly working to crack their system, and just now, I've completely taken control of these three robots.' Babata sounded very pleased. 'Robots aren't actually a huge threat; it's just that their entire bodies are forged from metal. These three are made of Uranium-Yttrium metal, so if you want to destroy them... it's very difficult.' Uranium-Yttrium metal! Even Universe-level experts would need to expend considerable effort to break through it. 'The advantage of metal robots is that they can be forged from extremely hard metals. But their disadvantages are too numerous... For example, these three lack independent intelligence. So their attack methods against you were very simple. Otherwise, if their intelligence were higher, even if they couldn't kill you, who possesses the Moyun Teng, working together, it wouldn't be hard to capture you,' Babata said. 'Alright, let's head into the Command Room.' Luo Feng took a deep breath. He walked forward, and behind him, the three metal robots obediently followed. Luo Feng suddenly saw a beautifully carved silver door ahead. 'We've arrived at the Command Room,' Babata said.
