Chapter 575: Chapter 412: The Moving Steel Labyrinth

With exceptional detection assistance, it is entirely possible to avoid mechanical monsters above Tier Six.

Upon observing the various experimental data transmitted back, Grey Wolf’s expression became particularly grave.

"Boss, within the entire Steel Maze, not only is there a special magnetic field that causes irreparable damage to flesh and blood creatures,

but the air here also contains an unknown gas that makes organisms mutate rapidly.

This unknown gas can not only mutate flesh and blood creatures but also causes some kind of targeted mutation in mechanical lifeforms."

Grey Wolf observed the Transformers operating on the first, second, and third underground levels and found that their bodies experienced different degrees of corrosive changes without any external damage.

Moreover, he also discovered some minor issues in the program driving the Transformers.

If it weren’t for the intelligent control of the Transformers by the Spacecraft, which can instantly read the program’s operation status, these changes might have gone unnoticed.

The slight alteration of the program involved the implantation of certain instructions, which, once triggered, would seize control authority of the Transformers’ driving program.

However, the intelligent system of the Spacecraft is no pushover.

It’s safe to say that the advanced artificial intelligence created by Grey Wolf, named Xiao Zhizhang, is installed on the Spacecraft.

The artificial intelligence programs in both the Wolf King and the research base are clones of Xiao Zhizhang, albeit with different servers and configurations provided to them.

The size of the Wolf King dictates that its computing power is the weakest among the three.

Next is the research base, which, despite its large size, doesn’t have as high-performance servers and equipment as the Spacecraft.

However, the sub-clones of Xiao Zhizhang can fully meet Grey Wolf’s experimental needs and also manage the entire research institute’s operation.

Almost immediately after the Transformers working in the underground Steel Maze were subjected to program intrusion, the super-intelligent system of the Spacecraft promptly devised countermeasures.

With just a few special isolation firewalls, the intrusive virus program was directly isolated.

"Indeed, to become an interstellar civilization, even if it has been destroyed, the remaining means are not so simple.

If so, then all the mechanical exotic beast monsters in the Steel Maze should be under control.

So, can we counter-invade?"

Mo Qingchen stroked his chin, watching the surveillance footage where a team of Transformers joined forces to kill a Tier Five mechanical monster.

Tier Four fights Tier Five, relying on numbers and the ability to unleash higher-level energy weapons, achieving a crushing state.

No matter what, the Wolf King, due to computational limitations, can almost reach its operation limit by controlling one hundred Tier Four Transformers at once. Any more will cause slight delays and stutters.

But for the Spacecraft, the control base was expanded more than a hundredfold.

Currently, the spacecraft is only simultaneously controlling one hundred Tier Four Transformers, allowing for extremely fine control of each machine.

At the same time, the backend crafted various strategies for each battle, generating over a hundred plans in an instant!

With such backend support, combined with precise control, Tier Four overwhelmingly crushed Tier Five became easy.

Even when encountering Tier Six mechanical monsters, with the Spacecraft’s support, they could complete the combination transformation within a few seconds and forcibly obliterate the enemy.

Mechanical monsters of Tier Seven and above are directly avoided in advance.

Mechanical monsters of Tier Six and below are rapidly wiped out, and the mechanical wreckage is packaged and recycled, not leaving even a millimeter of debris behind.

We can only say that under the control of the Spacecraft, these hundred Transformers were like a plague of locusts, consuming everything. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

It’s definitely several times cleaner than the enemy’s three-light policy when entering a village.

Wang Xiao’Er, watching the scene from the side, was already scared stiff.

Especially after hearing Grey Wolf’s various research reports, his back was already drenched in cold sweat.

At this moment, all he could feel was fortunate.

Fortunately, when he went to the Civilization’s Wound Secret Realm, he met Mo Qingchen and decisively clung to his leg.

If anyone coveted the goods inside the underground Steel Maze, they would likely die there themselves.

Not to mention that Baby Bear can protect him completely, various mechanical monsters in this underground Steel Maze are numerous beyond count. Tiers Five and Six abound, not to mention those Tier Seven and above mechanical monsters.

Even with Baby Bear’s Tier Six Peak combat power and Great Needle Bee’s Tier Five, while he himself is a Tier Five laggard.

If he dared to set foot in there, he wouldn’t know how he died!

The Mechanical Bear King, lying obediently next to Wang Xiao’Er, was trying its best to curl into a ball, reducing its presence.

It had long sensed that the underground Steel Maze contained something that attracted it, a kind of mechanical lifeform instinct.

This perception told it that if it could obtain something from below, it could advance, and its talent would progress further!

Therefore, it had urged Wang Xiao’Er to come to the Civilization’s Wound Secret Realm.

What did it see now?

A heap of mechanical monsters, not to mention the existence of dozens of Tier Nine mechanical monsters.

Moreover, the entire underground Steel Maze contained various pitfalls, especially unknown viruses with embedded potential control programs.

If it dared to go down, it feared it would become a puppet controlled by something.

Watching the screen display mechanical monsters without any intelligence, being hunted and broken into pieces by the Transformers.

The Mechanical Bear King shivered, and its mechanical eyes turned towards Grey Wolf, showing an extremely ingratiating expression.

Rather than risking its life below and risking being controlled to become a puppet, isn’t it better to cling to this being’s wolf leg?

Baby Bear had already decided in its heart, even if it were taken apart into pieces, it would firmly cling to Grey Wolf’s leg!

Even if the other party wanted to cripple its Beastmaster, it could lend a wrench for help, as long as it was not killed.

At that moment, the surveillance screen once again displayed a certain change.

In the Steel Maze model, those Tier Seven and Eight mechanical monsters scattered all over suddenly seemed to have received some directive, quickly moving towards several points.

"Boss, your speculation was correct; there is indeed something within the Steel Fortress controlling everything."

Grey Wolf’s expression became even more solemn.

Because the Spacecraft had already calculated and directly marked several gathering points on the city model.

The paths of those Tier Seven and Eight mechanical monsters would converge at certain points.

"It seems the hidden entity has been provoked, wanting to clear us out, the invaders."

Tier Nine mechanical monsters didn’t move.

This indicates that the deployment of Tier Nine mechanical monsters might produce some instability.

It could also be that deploying Tier Nine mechanical monsters requires consuming energy from within the Steel City.

Being able to arrange most Tier Nine mechanical monsters on the fourth underground level cannot be a coincidence; surely, efforts have been made.

"Spacecraft, gather all Transformers and use the combination transformation mode, even if it costs all energy, launch a brutal energy cannon attack on these mechanical monsters!"

Don’t underestimate these standard model Transformers that are only Tier Four, as their materials and energy are just at the Tier Four level!

In fact, after they combine, they can continually stack materials and energy.

If these one hundred Transformers were all combined as one, they could unleash a Tier Nine energy bombardment!

Of course, after fully combining, they would only have the power for one strike.

Following the bombardment, the damage to their bodies might reach fifty percent, and energy would be completely depleted.
