Chapter 1051: Galastar!
Yue Zhong's heart was heavy, "Over 160 billion Mechs of Type 4 and above, a thousand Type 7 Divine Warriors, 8 Type 8 and a Type 9. This sort of strength is too fearsome. There's nothing Earth can do!"
The Mech Kingdom had already conquered a few planets, and those not fit for human habitation were not a problem for those Mechs. They just needed resources to be able to produce more of their kind. Of course, it was not easy to produce a sentient being, and it took over eons just to have 20 billion of their kind.
However, even so, it was still terrifying. Not to mention the upper echelons of the Kingdom, just 100 million of the Mech Beasts themselves at the Type 4 realm would be enough to devastate Earth if they all came down.
After all, in the 2nd World of the Saint Clan, there were barely 1,000 Type 4 experts. Of course, that was when they were still stuck in the world. Upon descending to Earth, they had started to evolve once more, with many reaching the Type 4 and Type 5 realms. Right now, Earth was a source of evolution, allowing any race to evolve as long as they were on it. Many species had thus arrived whether by willing or unwilling circumstances.
Yue Zhong asked, "With such strength, how come your Kingdom did not send the entire army to Earth?"
Bardonia replied, "There're limitations on the Gates of Hell. The strongest experts that could pass through each Gate can only be at the Type 6 realm. There's also a limit on the number. Every month, a maximum of 200,000 Type 4 and above experts. As for how those of us Type 7 arrive here, it's because the Mech Emperor had forced the Gate with his prowess, allowing 20 of us through.
Yue Zhong felt a chill, "The Mech Emperor already possess the ability to manipulate the Gate of Hell?! His strength is something else!"
It must be clear that the Gates of Hell were even impervious to the nuclear warheads, or any attack on it. Yet, such an entity was able to be manipulated slightly by the strength of the Mech Emperor.
Should Yue Zhong be slightly weaker, the whole of China would be definitely destroyed by the Mech army.
He thought to himself, "I've been through so much, and although I've grown greatly, I'm still weak. I need to evolve further! Otherwise, just that Mech Emperor will be enough to wipe the floor with me."
Yue Zhong then asked, "Bardonia, are there any Mutant Beasts on the planet your Mech Kingdom is from?"
In response, Bardonia spoke, "Yes, there are many powerful Mutant Beasts located throughout treacherous terrain in our Mech Kingdom. Our Mech Kingdom would send out forces from time to time to deal with those Mutant Beasts and obtain their nuclei. On our planet, the Mutant Beasts are often large and dangerous, with Type 6 Mutant Beasts considered common. In each and every territory, there is at least one Type 9 Mutant Beast, which even our Mech Kingdom is not willing to antagonize."
Yue Zhong began pondering the moment he heard it, "No wonder."
Suddenly, he asked, "Within the Mech Kingdom, are there any resistance forces?"
Bardonia replied, "Within the Mech Kingdom, there is a small human faction that actively resists the rule of our Mech Kingdom. They are all hidden within various corners and would appear from time to time to damage our facilities. Their strength is weak, the strongest among them only a Type 6 expert. Their biggest achievement to date was occupying one of our smaller towns and destroying 5,000 Mech Beasts, before scurrying back underground. They had not been too much of an issue to us."
Yue Zhong frowned and nodded, "I see!"
Initially, he had planned to make use of the resistance to start his counter-attack, but from the look of things, it seemed as though there was no point as the resistance was too weak.
However, it was to be expected, as the Mech Kingdom was advanced and their facilities and equipment state-of-the-art. The Mechs did not need to sleep either, and could constantly conduct surveillance against the human resistance. If the Mech Emperor willed it, it was likely that the human resistance would have fallen long ago. Who knew what he was thinking of though, to keep them and not wipe them out entirely.
Yue Zhong continued to ponder quietly, "It seems that I need to head to the Mech Kingdom for a trip. Unless there are other precious relics that appear or the appearance of a Type 7 Mutant Beast, it is hard for me to improve and achieve a breakthrough. Staying on Earth is waiting for death."
Having made that decision, he did not hesitate any longer and ordered 3 of the Mechs towards the main base.
Of the remaining ones, Yue Zhong left 8 at the Gate, preventing the next batch of experts from the Mech Kingdom.
The rest, as well as the 200,000 Mech Beasts, were handed over to Han Qiong to lead, moving through Sichuan to attack the zombies, and rescue the survivors of Sichuan, while scavenging for resources.
After he had made his preparations, Yue Zhong donned on the Stealth Armor, completely hiding his aura, and went through the Gate of Hell to the Mech Kingdom.
With a flash of light, Yue Zhong went through and arrived at the mother planet of the Mech Kingdom, Galastar.
After passing through, Yue Zhong immediately felt his body sinking, "Holy, this gravity is at least 100 times that of Earth."
The location of the Gate of Hell was at a wide, vast plain, which had been converted into a huge fort made of metals and alloys.
Other than the Gate of Hell's location which was sandy, the rest had already been built up into a metallic landscape. There were countless sensors and cannons aimed, with radars and sound detectors sweeping the area of the Gate of Hell. As long as somebody intruded, he or she would be blasted to pieces in an instant.
Even a Type 8 expert would be killed with the amount of firepower here. Furthermore, the entire area was covered by superalloy, with no way out whatsoever, not even an area to dig out of.
Yue Zhong scanned the area and thought quietly, "This Mech Kingdom is truly crafty, actually setting so many traps. If it was not for the Stealth Armor as well as Bai Yi, I might have been blasted to pieces the moment I exited. Even if I escaped all those somehow, the area is locked down, without anybody opening the gate, there's no way to exit! Unfortunately, I have Bai Yi! This electronic cage will not hold me down!"
Right now, Yue Zhong was celebrating the fact that he had obtained Bai Yi. If it had been something like the Sword of Solemn Promise, no matter how strong he was, he could not break out of here.
"Bai Yi, do it!"
Under Yue Zhong's orders, the numerous sensors dimmed slightly, and a huge alloy door of about 20m in thickness, and height of 500m opened, revealing a wide and vast tunnel.
Yue Zhong swiftly proceeded through.
The core of this defense had obviously been at the Gate of Hell, while the rest was considerably slacker security. Yue Zhong passed through them easily.
When they were at a tunnel, Bai Yi suddenly spoke, Master, there're 3 tunnels to choose from. However, outside of them, there are Mechs standing guard. Once the doors, opened, they will know that someone has intruded."
Yue Zhong frowned, "Damn it, their security is so tight."
"Wait? If I wait for them to open it, and make my way out, it will be safe and no one none the wiser. But, it will take too long. They can only go through once a month, and if the Mech Emperor were to arrive himself, it will be a problem. That's a freaking Type 9 monster. I can't hand my fate to luck." He calculated, before walking towards the location where the Mechs were the least, and asked, "Bai Yi, how confident are you in blocking their communications over the other side."
Bai Yi replied, "I can jam their signal for about 5 minutes. However, Master, you had better deal with them quickly. Once they lose their connection for too long, the enemy will also discover the anomaly. Based on my estimations, it's best to destroy them in 20 seconds."
"20 seconds eh? I got it." Yue Zhong breathed deeply, and a resolute look appeared in his eyes, as he commanded, "Open!"
The moment he gave that order, the superalloy door slid open.
He executed his Seventh Order Shadow Steps, pouncing towards the 4 Mechs outside.
The moment the superalloy door slid open, all 4 Mechs whipped around to see.
All of a sudden, 4 blood-red radiances coiled around them and wrapped tightly.
Yue Zhong stretched out his hands and crushed all 4 of their brains, revealing a few microchips containing Type 6 Mutant Beast nuclei.
The manufacturing of these Mechs required the Mutant Beasts' nuclei, and their smart chips were their weakest points. As long as the microchip was intact, even if their bodies were destroyed, they could regenerate. Of course, depending on the damage, the greater the loss to the Mechs' strength as well.
