Chapter 446: Chapter 32: Verdant Demons

“Like a swarm of bees.”

Su Changxing touched his chin and thought these robots were simply incredible. Given some time, they could even produce a mechanical legion on their own.

Luckily, they cleared them in time; otherwise, who knows what they might have become… He turned to T3 and asked, “Can we increase our forward speed?”

T3 replied in a synthesized voice, “Yes, but it will reduce production efficiency, though we can first load the raw materials.”

Soon, a truck-like robot followed behind them, specifically loaded with excess raw materials and parts.

But even so, T3’s production speed was still not slow. With enough parts, they could produce an assembled robot in less than ten minutes.

Su Changxing didn’t take all the robots with him; instead, he left a few combat robots every certain distance along the highway to guard and clear the subsequent monsters.

Moreover, after these robots became his, the points from killing monsters were counted as his own.

His points were swelling at a terrifying speed during this time, and the rate of increase continued to rise. So far, he had acquired over 300,000 points.

By the time T3’s V50 was produced, it was dusk, and the mechanical monsters on the highway began to decrease.

The reconnaissance robot relayed an image from the front of the highway, showing a sobbing humanoid monster lying on the ground, completely gray-green.

A large number of destroyed robots lay around it.

“What is this thing?”

Su Changxing frowned slightly, feeling a hint of pressure. These robots were not so simple, yet this monster had killed so many of them without a scratch.

“The target is extremely dangerous; it is recommended to avoid.” T3 advised on the side.

It always proactively offered rational advice, seemingly complementing the natural irrationality of humans.

However, Su Changxing shook his head and said, “Prepare for battle. You guys defend, and I’ll attack.”

He advanced to a vantage point within sight, pulled out a sniper rifle, aimed at the target’s head, and decisively pulled the trigger. The whole process from aiming to firing took less than a second, and a lot of steam spewed out from the gun’s orifices.

“Bang~”

With a dull sound, the bullet flew out and accurately shattered its entire head.

Dead?

No, it wasn’t.

The next moment, the monster seemed to activate, charging towards them at an eerie speed, leaving black footprints on the ground.

[Verdant Demon: Tier Seven, from the Magic Plane, possesses extremely high energy resistance and spirit resistance, known as Mage Slayer, with extreme physical power.]

Su Changxing immediately fired a second shot, hitting again, creating a huge hole in its chest. There was no blood, only some white luminescent substance seeping out.

Meanwhile, beams from the robots’ lasers also sealed the area, but these lasers disappeared when they hit the Verdant Demon’s body, seemingly causing no effect.

“Bang~”

Su Changxing fired a third shot, piercing through the monster’s body once more.

Finally, it fell on the highway 600 meters away, its body quickly dissolving, dispersing into some white streams of light gathering together.

“Just this?”

Su Changxing raised an eyebrow, feeling that this Tier Seven monster was somewhat useless, but the points it gave were plenty, as much as over 100,000.

Approaching it, he sensed some scattered memory fragments within the white light, then used the Dreamer’s ability to collect them.

······

This was a desolate world, with red eagles circling in the sky, dried gigantic trees seen everywhere, and the land full of cavities.

It, along with another Verdant Demon, was chasing a human not for any particular reason, but merely because the human was a mage. Consuming mages strengthens them quickly.

Verdant Demons are extremely simple-minded, with no concept of time, only seeing companions and enemies. Crawling on the ground to rest is their favorite thing to do.

Towering flames erupted from the mage’s magic staff in front, spreading out like a lotus, raising the air temperature suddenly, turning the land into patches of magma.

But this only slowed their speed a little.

The human did not run further, instead turning around to face them, chanting intricate spells quickly. In an instant, a huge magic array covered them, causing spatial fluctuations, then everything went black.

······

“Is this the banishing type of magic?”

Su Changxing made some judgment, thinking that the Verdant Demon entered the black mist because of this mage, and subsequently arrived in their world.

In other words, the black mist itself had some kind of spatial connection function?

He picked up the crystal the Verdant Demon left behind, a black object similar to an Extraordinary Crystal.

“What is this thing?”

Su Changxing asked T3, holding the crystal.

T3 observed the crystal and then said, “A high-density energy block, I can use this to make higher-sequence combat robots.”

Su Changxing raised his eyebrows and thought to himself, “It can do that too?”

T3’s eyes flickered and said, “A powerful energy core can provide stronger kinetic energy and a laser cannon. I can also set a detonation device, making it into a self-destruct robot.”

Su Changxing suddenly realized these robots might be a potential great terror. Even if T3 only mastered part of that civilization’s knowledge, it probably surpassed their current level.

A seemingly simple intelligent equation could bring huge disaster and threat to their world…

Su Changxing was silent for a while, then asked, “What’s the power of such a self-destruct robot?”

T3 answered unhesitatingly, “It can flatten an area of six kilometers radius, but it takes a considerable amount of time to manufacture. It causes great environmental destruction, resulting in unknown energy radiation, not recommended for use.”

Could this thing destroy the Giant Anchor?

Su Changxing nodded and said, “No rush, let’s hold onto this for now.”

The robots on the road gradually decreased, and by dusk, they could no longer see other robots, replaced by some dog-like, blood-red crawling monsters.

They were agile, numerous, and highly aggressive, actively hunting humans around, leaving no bones of many corpses gnawed upon.

At this time, the robots produced by T3 numbered over a hundred, forming a tight formation, crushing these dog-like monsters.

As they pushed forward, they suffered no losses.

Su Changxing lay on T3’s shoulder, sleeping, replenishing his lack of sleep from the previous day, observing the surroundings from a God’s Perspective.

They had entered the West Bridge area, where the Giant Anchors were unusually dense, clearly visible from afar.
