Chapter 720 Surprise Attack on Kezan City (8000)
“Such a deal is indeed possible if the effects of mutiny can be countered.
After discussion, everyone got a relatively consistent answer.
In less than a month of fighting and development, the Gulf Territory’s investment in the mechanical plane has reached an astonishing level.
Although the harvest is extremely rich, the positive cycle continues to bring more benefits and progress to the Gulf tie.
However, everyone can clearly feel that facing the mobile city produced and controlled by Guilty Spark and the rebel mechanical base.
Even the production capacity of the Gulf Territory is under considerable pressure in this regard.
Moreover, in the eyes of many commanders and managers, the control center's capabilities are at least as good as Sin Spark's.
Under this circumstance, if the problem of being controlled can be solved, the development of the Gulf Territory in the mechanical plane will have a brighter future.
Meng Qingqing was very excited when she heard this and made her promise without hesitation:
"No problem, we can take action right away."
After receiving a positive reply from the Mohists, the commanders of the Gulf Territory held a routine discussion.
Soon, everyone started to take action.
After experiencing the battle with the spark of sin, everyone has a clearer understanding of the preciousness of time.
The development of the mechanical plane.
It is destined to be different from the slowness of the Catachan demiplane, and must take a faster, more accurate, and more ruthless path.
Invisibly, everyone's efficiency becomes higher.
As a result, most of the trophies were immediately dismantled and studied at the Gulf Territory Advanced Base.
Other trophies distributed to the goblins and Mohists are also directly matched according to the Gulf Territory contribution system and gold coins.
Both families are quite satisfied. The materials and achievements provided by Gulf Leader are all real, and they can always choose goods and equipment that satisfy them.
Throughout the entire Western Front battlefield, densely packed Gulf Territory soldiers and staff were taking action.
They must clean up this battlefield as quickly as possible.
And complete the disassembly, collection and classification of various materials.
More and more adventurers have been approved to enter the mechanical plane and participate in tasks and work.
Of course, except for some of the best adventurer teams.
The vast majority of adventurers are temporarily unable to participate in combat missions.
The reason is simple. Fighting against the rebel machines and Guilty Sparks is extremely dangerous.
When the danger and casualty rate are uncontrollable, the Gulf Territory will not let these adventurers participate in the battle too quickly.
Only the adventurers who survive can continuously create wealth and value for the Gulf Territory.
Matthew and Yaya took the initiative to leave the Bay Territory Advanced Base, followed the Mo family's team, and came to the government city again.
Matthew soon discovered that the situation in the Mohist government city was different from what he saw for the first time.
The machine beasts all over the city walls disappeared, replaced by rows of dwarf cannons and magic cannons.
Mohist disciples wearing heavy armor were conducting intense patrols.
On both sides of the canyon in the distance, there are many construction machinery at work.
They are setting up various traps to deal with possible attacks from the rebel mechanical army.
The big iron cone leading the way shook his head with great regret:
"It's a pity that the other three mobile cities escaped. Otherwise, we wouldn't have to worry about being attacked."
Meng Qingqing glanced at him and said directly without thinking:
"How can such a good thing happen? Although the number of mobile cities is small, there are at least 20 units in other areas."
"The renegade mechanical army that has acquired part of our technology will become even more powerful and terrifying in the future."
"On the contrary, now that these mobile cities are gathering together and consuming a lot of resources and energy, the rebel machinery needs to mobilize a lot of resources."
"In this case, we can seize the time to prepare for battle."
Matthew followed behind without saying a word, so he naturally understood the intention of their rhetoric.
The Mo family understands the dangers of the mechanical plane and also knows a lot of information and information about the rebellious machines.
In fact, the reason why the Mohist family has been investing for thousands of years and paying a huge price is to maintain the existence of the government city.
It must have a deep relationship with the reason why the mechanical plane has become what it is now.
Matthew continued to look at the greatly changed appearance of the machine city, and watched the rumbling production factory with interest.
The production line in the Gulf Territory is already in rapid operation in Guan City.
Mohist disciples are worthy of being technical talents. They are very talented in learning mechanical knowledge and mastering corresponding production capabilities.
Except for some problems that must be solved by magic, the Mohists basically mastered the principles and production processes of the production line.
In the entire northern continent, only the Silverleaf Family, Blood Moon City, and the Dwarf Kingdom, which have a closer relationship with the Gulf Territory, should have managed to master these technologies with the help of the Gulf Territory staff.
As the technology of Haiwanling's production line continues to improve, the difficulty of operation will gradually decrease, the difficulty of technology will continue to increase, and the difficulty of mastering and keeping up will continue to increase.
In the future, even if the Gulf Territory opens up some production technologies, most forces may not be able to learn and imitate them.
"The cultivation of talents, technological research and breakthroughs will become more important development factors in the future."
Matthew continued to think about the talent training system in the Gulf Territory and felt that there was room for improvement.
However, there is not much time left for the territory to slowly cultivate and develop.
The elemental tide has not yet begun, and monsters, demons, and snakes have already appeared.
There will be more and more dangers in the future.
Real natural disasters will gradually appear.
"So, other forces must also work hard!"
What Matthew thought in his heart was naturally heard by Yaya.
She curiously looked at the many children who came over, looking at their big dark eyes and sky-high braids, and thought they were quite cute.
Master Ban came over with a group of mechanics, with a little excitement and expectation on his face.
After so many years, the mission of Guancheng is about to be completed, which is inevitably a bit exciting.
Matthew greeted Master Ben and looked at the greatly changed Tiger Machine Beast, observing its many parts that had been replaced by metal parts, and secretly admired it in his heart.
"Sure enough, organizations and forces that have been inherited for thousands of years have their own unique features in the acceptance and development of technology."
Yaya's eyes couldn't help but shine, and he happily jumped on the head of the wolf-shaped machine beast with a full metal shell. Under the gaze of countless eyes, he happily knocked on its head.
"This thing is really interesting. There is still a lot of room for improvement. It actually only needs one person to drive it."
"There are still many people in our territory who can also learn from this transformation technology."
"Different body types and different opponents can use different combat vehicles."
"The saved machine masters can operate more machine beasts."
"Coupled with the increased productivity, whether it is an increase in the scale of the battle or the convenience of executing orders, it will be greatly improved."
"However, these things are still a bit too brittle, and more metal can be added appropriately."
"..."
The Mo family's machine master made no move, as if he was not the elite machine master who defeated more than 30 very close colleagues and successfully occupied the right to drive the wolf-shaped machine beast.
He participated in the middle of the battle yesterday, and happened to see Yaya displaying his power and destroying a large area of automatic defense facilities.
Even the three commanders must treat such a powerful being with courtesy, let alone him.
After hearing Yaya's words, Meng Qingqing blinked in surprise.
She really didn't expect that Yaya's understanding of the mechanism beasts was so profound and intuitive, and he understood it more thoroughly than most of the mechanism masters.
On the contrary, Master Ban was very happy and understood what kind of amazing talents existed like Yaya.
Master Ban is very happy and willing to facilitate Yaya's hobbies of machinery and combat vehicles.
If we can establish a good relationship with Yaya, the cooperation between the Mo family and the Gulf Territory will be solid.
In this case, the Mohist family's transactions and material acquisition can also become more stable.
Of course, the most important task at the moment is to provide the ancestor Mozi with a body that is powerful enough and can help him in his situation.
Recalling the large amount of storage equipment provided by the Gulf Territory, Master Ban felt sincere joy in his heart.
The harvest of these space equipment alone can reduce the loss of materials by more than 70% and increase the efficiency of material exchange by 300% when communicating between the organization city and the organization island.
If it were not for the instability of the space rift, communication would not be possible for a longer period of time.
It is estimated that the machine city and the machine island can have a stable connection like the forward base of the Gulf Territory and the material plane.
In this case, Guancheng can invite back the ancestral spirit Mozi without having to worry any more.
"Fortunately, everything is moving in a good direction."
Master Ben thought this while leading the way for Matthew and the Bay Leader team.
Walking on the streets of Guan City, Matthew saw many curious looks and heard quite a lot of enthusiastic discussions.
"The three leaders greeted them together. Who are they?"
"Don't you know them? They are the true dragons of the Bay Territory - Yaya and Earl Matthew."
"Earl? Is that an earl? A nobleman from which kingdom? Han? Or Chu? Or Qin?"
"No, Lord Matthew is from the legendary Northern Continent, but he is related to us Easterners."
"Real dragon? Is it equivalent to the dragon king we know?"
"Absolutely. Even though Lord Yaya looks small, her fighting power is very strong."
"Hehe, in the words of the Gulf Territory, Lord Yaya's combat power is at least over 2,000!"
"2000? How high is that?"
"Hmm... let's put it this way, isn't your aunt's third uncle's grandson's second brother's classmate working as a patrol guard reserve on the city wall?"
"Yes, that young man is only 16 years old, and he is very good at wielding a big knife."
"When he used the machete, his combat power was only 5 points..."
"5 o'clock? So low? Is it really fake?"
"Tch, 5 points is not low. Putting together the seven or eight of us, our combat effectiveness is less than 5 points..."
"Forehead……"
"..."
The interesting discussion also made Matthew and Yaya find it quite interesting.
However, although the people in Guan City were still in relatively good spirits, the information revealed in their words still made Matthew understand.
Even the Eastern Continent is no longer the hometown he remembers.
Matthew also had some understanding of the current situation there and learned many things that made him sigh.
Thousands of years of inheritance have given rise to many countries and histories that Matthew remembers.
The clear and special context gave Matthew a different feeling.
Most of the previous history was similar, except that the dynasties lasted longer, which was closely related to the emergence of extraordinary power.
Until more than 100 years ago.
The Zhou Dynasty, which lasted for nearly 2,000 years, fell.
The Qin State still wiped out the six countries and unified the world.
The powerful Qin State, as Matthew remembered, continued to expand its territory and attack everywhere.
However, the targets of Qin's attack have become the current barbarians, Baiyue monsters, Nanman mountain ghosts, and Japanese sea monsters.
What makes Matthew even more emotional is that it was also the fall of the First Emperor that caused the huge Qin Empire to fall apart.
In Matthew's memory, the Chu and Han kingdoms rose together and divided up 2/3 of the Qin Empire's territory, but did not destroy it.
The formation of the Three Kingdoms made Matthew very curious.
These things happened more than 20 years ago.
At present, the situation in the entire Eastern Continent is basically stable.
However, according to the intelligence and data collected by the Mohists, the three countries are all working hard and are obviously ready to continue to complete the great cause of unification.
And even in this case.
They are also actively exploring and developing.
While they continue to expand outwards, they continue to strengthen their armaments and strength, and are always ready to destroy the other two kingdoms.
The most obvious feature is that the remnants of the Qin State suppressed and expelled the remaining barbarian forces.
The westward migration of barbarians is closely related to the situation in the Gulf Territory.
Matthew also got feedback from it, and completed a relatively complete match with the disaster "plot" of the large-scale barbarian invasion in his memory.
"It will be about two years from next year. It seems that the territory needs to prepare early..."
While Matthew was thinking this, he followed Master Ban to the most important core area of the government city - the Patriarch's Hall!
The main body of the Patriarch's Hall is a hollowed-out boulder.
From a distance, it can be seen that the Mohist architects made the most of it and turned it into a very special building.
Even just watching from a distance, a special sense of pressure becomes stronger and stronger.
Matthew and Yaya didn't care about this. They were very familiar with this feeling.
An existence similar to Longwei is a special ability of some powerful creatures.
The interior of the huge Patriarch's Hall was not as splendid as Matthew had imagined.
There are plain stone walls everywhere, with various patterns outlined in simple strokes.
Matthew glanced briefly and saw the construction process of the machine city and the various encounters of the Mo family in the mechanical plane.
Among them, what impressed Matthew the most was a large and lifelike goblin city.
The goblin buildings gathered together are very similar to a goblin city recorded in many murals in the goblin ruins of the Dead Desert - the giant city of Kezan!
This city is one of the birthplaces of the goblin empire.
It is also one of the holy places of the Goblin Empire.
According to legend, the Goblin Empire acquired many powerful production technologies in the giant city of Kezan.
In particular, its superior combat puppet production technology is beyond the reach of most forces in the entire northern continent.
The former Goblin Empire was much stronger than the current Netheril Empire. It once occupied more than 1/2 of the continent and controlled many demiplanes and many resources.
If it were before, Matthew would naturally not believe that the Goblin Empire had ever been so powerful.
However, with the emergence of many ruins, as well as the records and excavations of many players in Matthew's memory.
A shocking secret hidden in the dust of history gradually unfolded before Matthew's eyes.
The goblin empire was destroyed by the conquests of the gods, destroyed by the tacit siege of many forces, and disappeared by the tacit clearing and cover-up of many gods and churches.
It is estimated that even the major churches do not know that the inheritance of the Goblin Empire exists in the dangerous and terrifying mechanical plane.
Otherwise, they would have launched a massive attack long ago to not only gain control of the demiplane, but also win the favor of the gods.
All kinds of information flashed through Matthew's mind one after another.
He looked at the mural carefully and looked at the huge figure standing in the middle of the giant city of Kezan.
Hundreds of meters high, carrying thunder, holding a giant sword, and breaking through the sky!
The most powerful fighting force in the Goblin Empire - the Emperor Titan!
The smaller mechanical Titan also has many figures that Matthew is very familiar with.
Warmaster Titan, Warmaster Titan, Warrior Titan, Warhound Titan, and some smaller Knight Titans.
These behemoths, which are more than ten to dozens of meters high, are still just large-scale war machines deployed in the huge and towering city of Kezan.
If the records on the Mohist murals are correct, the strength of the giant city of Kezan is definitely very strong.
But even so, it still disappeared in the long river of history.
Even though the Gulf Territory excavated a small half of the Death Desert, they could only find fragments of the giant city of Kezan in some deeply hidden ruins chambers.
"How were they destroyed?"
"Was it destroyed by the gods themselves?"
"How expressive will the gods be if they take action themselves?"
"..."
Yaya asked curiously. She had only been exposed to the goddess of magic and the mother of the earth.
These two powerful gods can be said to be omnipotent in terms of their strength.
Matthew shook his head and did not elaborate on Yaya.
Now is not the time. Talking too much may put a considerable burden on Tooth.
Master Ben, who was leading the way, gradually slowed down his pace, his expression became serious, and he made a retreat gesture to the followers around him.
Even if they were unwilling to do so, they could only stand still and focus on Matthew and Yaya as if nothing had happened.
Meng Qingqing, who followed closely in the footsteps of Master Ban, felt the pressure on her body getting bigger and bigger, and every step she took consumed a lot of energy.
Huge pressure came from the wooden stone statue in front.
Meng Qingqing gritted her teeth and continued to move forward, wanting to see her progress during this period.
The big iron cone next to him was also sweating profusely.
A strong body does not seem to make it easier for him to resist pressure.
His steps were slower than Meng Qingqing's, and he stopped completely when he was 30 meters away from the wooden statue.
There is no way forward!
Meng Qingqing was slightly better than him, stopping at 25 meters.
Master Ben stood 20 meters away, breathing heavily. He turned to look at the unstressed Yaya and Matthew who was looking at the wooden statue. He suppressed the shock in his heart and said in a very respectful tone:
"This is the ancestral spirit of the Mohist family - Mozi, which we discovered, and it is also the reason why our government city was established."
"About 1,800 years ago, our Mohist expedition passed through a dangerous space rift and accidentally found the mechanical plane."
"Here we discovered the remaining inheritance of the Goblin Empire, and also discovered the long-lost ancestor spirit - Mozi!"
"This clone statue of Mozi can test and enlighten Mohist disciples from time to time."
"Any Mohist disciple who can advance further through testing and enlightenment can obtain the corresponding knowledge inheritance."
"Many of the knowledge and technologies are long-lost skills of the Mohists, or are guidance on how to innovate existing technologies..."
"Under such circumstances, our Mohist family concentrated a large amount of resources and manpower, and amid the doubts of other organizations and forces, we left the Eastern Continent and came to the Southern Islands."
"We took over a large island and transformed it into a place of Mohist heritage."
"During that period, the Mo family's strength and technology have grown to a considerable extent."
"Even in the dangerous mechanical plane, four machine cities were built."
"It's just to find the location of his true body by cooperating with the clone of the ancestral spirit Mozi."
"After spending nearly a thousand years and investing countless resources and manpower, we finally found the location of the true form of the ancestor Mozi - the ruins of the destroyed holy city of the Goblin Empire, the giant city of Kezan!"
"At that time, everyone in the Mo family was very excited. Thousands of years of hard work and investment were about to be rewarded."
"We gathered our strength and sent in a large number of manpower and elites, ready to explore the giant city of Kezan."
"It's a pity that everything our Mo family has done has fallen into the control of the enemy."
"A large number of rebel machines came and besieged more than a dozen mobile cities. The Mohist elite team suffered heavy losses. After obtaining some key information, they were forced to evacuate the giant city of Kezan."
"During that time, we were besieged and hunted by renegade machines. Many machine cities were destroyed, and many elite forces were sacrificed."
"However, our efforts have finally paid off, and Mozi, the ancestor of the Mohist family, has been further awakened."
"He can provide sober protection, and the scope of the protection is exactly the territory occupied by the current agency city."
"Under His protection, even the enemy's renegade machinery will escape its control and gradually regain its independent thinking."
"It is precisely for this reason that the government city can survive."
Having said this, Master Ben couldn't help but raise his head and stared at the shining wooden statue.
He looked at the blurry figure and said very excitedly:
"Now that we have been given instructions, the evil enemy is about to be freed from its shackles once and for all."
"At that time, even the ancestral spirit Mozi will lose the power to restrain the other party, and will no longer be able to resist its influence, but will be controlled by it!"
"So, we don't have much time left."
"The ancestral spirit Mozi has decided to give it a try, transfer his mind and will from his original body, and join the Knight Titan to tell us how to completely defeat the opponent."
Listening to Master Ben's words, the smile on Matthew's face remained gentle and calm.
He silently stared at the shadow in front of him, motionless and saying nothing.
As if aware of Matthew's attitude, the ancestral spirit Mozi, who was constantly exuding terrible pressure, withdrew his momentum when Da Tiezui and Meng Qingqing could no longer support it.
His figure gradually became clearer, and under the excited gaze of all the Mohist disciples, his detailed features and face were revealed.
The face of a rather handsome middle-aged uncle.
His eyes were filled with vicissitudes of life, and it took him a while to regain his vigor. He looked into Shang Yaya's curious eyes, revealing a little bit of surprise and surprise.
He was just about to say something, but then he quickly reflected, turned to look at the calm Matthew, and said softly with emotion:
"There are talented people from generation to generation, and each of them leads the way for hundreds of years."
"It's another elemental tide. I really didn't expect that I slept for so long."
"Young arcanist, your path is truly unique!"
Matthew didn't speak, not even a little bit of surprise, until the real message appeared above his head.
Mozi: Ancestral Spirit (Clone)
Challenge Level: 25+ (Boss)
Challenge suggestion: Run away!
Basic attributes:? ? ?
Combat rating: 2500!
Even though Matthew had expected it, he still felt inexplicable amazement when he saw Mozi's clone.
The challenge level of a clone is as high as 25 plus for the boss.
This also means that Mozi's body has at least the strength of 27+ leaders.
In other words, Mozi is definitely a demigod, not an ordinary high-level legend!
This is the real boss!
Presumably in its heyday, it was most likely one of the most powerful handful among the gods.
When the gods cannot come in their true form and cannot exert their full strength.
Mozi can be said to be one of the most powerful combat units in the material plane.
thigh!
This Mozi may not be that "Mozi", but even so.
He is definitely a super hunk too!
Just like the one in Matthew’s impression!
It’s no wonder that the influence of the Spark of Sin cannot have an effect on the Gig City.
It's not that the renegade machines can't use other methods to destroy the machine city.
But because Mozi is the backstage in Guancheng, it can naturally continue tenaciously.
A smile gradually appeared on Matthew's face, and he said very gently:
"I'm just picking up people's wisdom. The predecessors planted trees, and the descendants can enjoy the shade."
Regarding Matthew's modesty, Mozi narrowed his eyes slightly, shook his head in admiration, and said with emotion:
"We don't have much time, let's release the Knight Titan body in your storage space."
"Magic is really convenient sometimes, but it's a pity that it's controlled by others in most cases."
"The arcanist path does have great potential. You can continue to dig deeper and explore it well."
"I shouldn't have been so stubborn towards the Mohist disciples back then. How could I be so stupid?"
Upon hearing Mozi's words, Matthew immediately released the Knight Titan.
There are some words that just need to be listened to, and don’t continue them casually.
This Knight Titan is larger than the other Knight Titans.
It was 13 meters high, and when it appeared in the Patriarch's Hall, it filled up a large area of the huge space.
Mozi's eyes seemed to have special penetrating power, and he could clearly see the internal structure and situation of the Knight Titan. After a few simple glances, he nodded with satisfaction.
A green light emitted from his body and slowly fell on the Knight Titan. At the same time, he continued to say to Matthew:
"What really determines the level of strength is the ultimate heightening and improvement."
“Once you break through one of them, the rest will fall into place.”
After saying this, without waiting for Matthew to react, Mozi's shadow slowly disappeared.
On the contrary, the Knight Titan, which was basically well preserved, began to make subtle sounds and changes in his body.
clatter! clatter! clatter!
Click! Click! Click!
Matthew listened to various sounds and felt the subtle collision of forces and the spreading fluctuations.
Noticing the slow movements of the Knight Titan, Matthew carefully observed the true changes of the Knight Titan.
A special power spread from the Knight Titan. Matthew saw this subtle change and quickly found out the attribute:
"Legendary - Death Aura LV3, which allows all units within the aura to be affected by the aura, resist blind obedience, bewitchment, charm, and control by 70%, and have a +6 determination of will."
An extremely special and powerful legendary halo!
"Unfateful? Interesting!"
Matthew naturally understood what Feiming represented.
This is one of the core ideas of Mohism.
It emphasizes that people should have independent thinking ability, oppose blind obedience, dare to fight against fate, and emphasize subjective initiative.
What Matthew didn't expect was that, under the influence and guidance of extraordinary power, these ideas and thoughts turned into real abilities.
"Perhaps, this is also a kind of knowledge, a kind of cognitive progress knowledge."
"Knowledge is power, and it is explained more clearly in the material plane."
"It seems that we have the means to fight against rebellion, fooling, and bewitching!"
Matthew felt the unfathomable aura unfolding little by little and slowly affecting the fluctuations, and immediately realized that this was Mozi's handiwork.
Mozi had been emphasizing the attitude of the arcanist to Matthew just now.
What is the most outstanding ability of the Arcanist?
Have your own magic!
It has the ability to express, release, and display other extraordinary powers through spells!
The arcanist is the most powerful application unit of the human body!
The aura of evil that Mozi displayed was to fight against the "rebellious" power of the evil spark.
Matthew silently absorbed the knowledge and information, carefully reviewed Mozi's attitude and information, and immediately got an answer that he was looking forward to:
The Guilty Spark is about to get out of trouble!
Mozi has the power to deal with Him!
Matthew withdrew his gaze from the slowly changing Knight Titan, and quickly walked towards the outside of the Patriarch's Hall under the astonished gazes of the Mohist disciples.
At the same time, Matthew quickly sent a message.
"Then there's nothing more to say. Pack up immediately and prepare to attack Guilty Spark!"
"A good prey cannot be let go!"
