Lord: Sequence Overlord

Chapter 417 Teleportation Ritual and the Eternal Mechanical City

Chapter 416

In the Eternal Dream, the Primordial Spirit Immortal Emperor cautiously returned to the Immortal Realm.

Now that the Immortal Realm has been completely integrated into the Immortal Kingdom, the appearance of the Primordial Spirit Immortal Emperor was impossible to hide.

Through teleportation, the Primordial Spirit Immortal Emperor had already been moved by Rosen to the hall of the Immortal Castle.

Rosen sat on the magnificent throne, and the Eye of Creation instantly confirmed that the Yuanling Immortal Emperor before him was still an avatar.

Sending a clone in specifically suggests that the World Will sent Him.

"Your Majesty the Immortal Emperor, I have come to convey the request of the world's will."

Yuanling Immortal Emperor, worried that Rosen would make a move, hurriedly explained his purpose.

"What request?"

"Rosen asked."

"The world's will wants to borrow the source species for birth..."

Yuanling Immortal Emperor hesitated for a moment before continuing, "If you are willing to borrow it, the World Will can provide you with other ways to grow, and the final gains will far exceed those of giving birth to the Origin Seed."

"So this is a plan to get something for nothing?"

Rosen asked, displeased.

"of course not."

Yuanling Immortal Emperor hurriedly took out a map and floated it toward Rosen. "This map points to a hidden spiritual realm in the new world that is no less powerful than the Eternal Dream. Regardless of whether we can borrow the Birth Source Seed, this map is a gift from the world's will."

Rosen took the map, and Eternal Omniscience immediately began its analysis.

The map itself is a miraculous treasure, so its attributes are exactly what they are, cannot be faked, and are unique in the world.

This map allows you to enter a special spiritual realm called the Eternal Mechanical City.

Also originating from eternal life, it is a city left behind by the most powerful eternal mechanical life form in the universe after its death.

Both the cosmic civilization and the supreme god civilization have benefited immensely from the Eternal Mechanical City.

However, the most precious Eternal Mechanical Origin Seed is still preserved in Eternal Mechanical City and no one can take it away.

Because the Eternal Mechanical City is not stationary, but rather constantly moving within the Earth's crust.

Finding the Eternal Mechanical City is difficult, but with this map, it becomes very easy.

Rosen knew very well that although the World Will said that regardless of whether he lent out the source seed or not, this map was a gift to him, if he really took it for free, his relationship with the World Will, which had just eased, would probably immediately deteriorate.

With this map, lending out a seed of birth would be a worthwhile investment.

The problem is that the primordial seed has already merged with the Snake Mother Gourd to repair it, and it is unable to divide normally. It is impossible for him to lend the Snake Mother Gourd to the world's will, otherwise it would be like throwing a meat bun to a dog, never to be returned.

“The source of birth has been integrated into a treasure that cannot be lent out. I will draw one for you to take back.”

After a moment's thought, Rosen took out the Creator's Sketchbook and began to paint on the spot.

Yuanling Immortal Emperor stood uneasy, not understanding what Rosen meant by drawing a birthplace of the source species.
However, they soon found out, because Rosen had quickly drawn the birthplace of the species.

The pigments used were the eternal source of creation, and also incorporated some eternal mimicry source and eternal dream source, thus creating a replica of a source of creation. Except for the lack of the ability to communicate with the origin of the universe, this replica can do everything that other source of creation can do.

Of course, in order to maximize the power of imitations and forgeries, their lifespan would not exceed a hundred years.

With a heavy heart, the Immortal Emperor Yuanling reluctantly left the eternal dreamland that no longer belonged to him, carrying the scroll in his hand.

Half an hour later, the World Will opened the scroll in its hand and was slightly surprised.

Since we've mentioned borrowing, then borrowing is the power that gives birth to the source species.

Although the source of birth wasn't borrowed, the power of the source of birth in the painting is sufficient.

Although the source of life depicted in the painting is fake, the amount of eternal source of life consumed in creating this painting is astonishing.

Rosen's willingness to spend so much shows at least a basic level of sincerity.

What the world's will is more curious about is what treasure Rosen incorporated into the Birth Source Seed.
The only treasures capable of fusing with an eternal-level innate source seed are eternal sacred objects.

"It seems the Snake Mother Gourd is in Rosen's hands."

The world's will closed the scroll with a hint of apprehension.

……

Deep underground in the new world, Rosen took out the map given to him by the Yuanling Immortal Emperor.

[City Map: Miracle Treasure]

[Level: True God]

[Miracle Attribute: The very first printed version of the city map of Eternal Mechanical City]

[Miracle Traits: Teleportation Ritual, Uniqueness of Heaven and Earth, Eternal and Undying]

Rosen searched for clues about the Eternal Mechanical City as much as possible, but couldn't find any direct leads.

However, there are some indirect instances. Historically, some people have encountered the randomly moving Eternal Mechanical City and attempted to enter it for exploration. As a result, they were almost wiped out by the outermost defense system. The only reason they survived was because there was a true god who was good at preserving his life.

Therefore, finding the Eternal Mechanical City is not the most difficult thing; the real challenge is figuring out how to enter it.

However, having this city map changes everything. By using the wonder's properties to set up a teleportation ritual, one can teleport into the Eternal Mechanical City.

Rosen activated the teleportation ritual, and a massive amount of mechanical energy immediately surged within the city map.

Once these mechanical forces materialize, they form an ultra-complex metal altar composed of countless mechanical parts.

Rosen first took out all sorts of mechanical creations, some of which were finished products made by the fantasy fairy Amy, and others were technological creations of the mechanical race purchased through the God Network. However, none of the mechanical creations caused any changes to the teleportation ritual.

This teleportation ritual requires contributing a mechanical artifact to the Eternal Mechanical City via the altar.

Ordinary ones won't do; they must be exquisite and unique enough, mechanical creations that even the Eternal Mechanical City doesn't have.

Only in this way can one gain the opportunity to enter the Eternal Mechanical City.

Rosen summoned Amy, but only Amy at Sequence 1.

The reason why she has not yet become a god is not only because the Dreamer Sequence is difficult to perfect, but also because Amy wants to create the strongest evolving mechanical god kingdom. Mechanical creations rarely have strong upgrade potential, so it is better to just recreate them instead of upgrading them.

Therefore, when a mechanical deity is promoted to a true mechanical god, the original divine kingdom is usually dismantled and completely upgraded and rebuilt.

Amy was not satisfied with this kind of divine kingdom; she wanted to create a living, self-evolving mechanical divine kingdom.

"It needs to be a mechanical creation that is special enough, novel enough, and powerful enough."

Rosen pointed to the metal altar formed by the teleportation ritual.

"Let me try."

Amy ventured into the realm of mechanics, continuously producing various mechanical creations from her collection.

However, none of the mechanical creations could initiate the teleportation ritual.

Amy hesitated for a moment, then reluctantly took out a mechanical doll.

Rosen was slightly taken aback. This palm-sized mechanical doll was exactly the same as him, dressed in the same outfit he wore when he first met Amy. Moreover, it was actually a Gundam Sequence 1 Miracle Treasure.

Just as Amy was about to put it on, Rosen stopped her and took it from her hand.

This was a mechanical doll modeled after him, possessing the extraordinary powers of both the Sequence 1 Painter and Hunter sequences. It had never been activated since its creation. It was clear that Amy had put a lot of thought into making this doll, but she knew very well that it could never be his replacement. Rosen suddenly felt a pang of guilt; Amy was the person he had neglected the most by his side.

Because Amy spends most of her time in the mechanical laboratory, she is researching when he has free time, and he is busy when she is finished. Therefore, he spends the least amount of time with Amy. It has been thousands of years since he last spent time with her.

Although ordinary people live only a few decades, every day is busy and fulfilling.

Having reached the level of extraordinary power, he basically needs to spend hundreds or thousands of years in seclusion to temper his divine origins to see any growth. As time goes by, he gradually becomes less and less like a human.

This is understandable, since the basic title for God has changed from "he" to "the One".

Because through long years of cultivation, humanity will inevitably become increasingly diluted and inhuman.

If this were in the beginning, let alone a single period of arduous cultivation lasting a thousand years, he would find it difficult to endure even ten days or half a month alone. No wonder so many eternal beings grew tired of living and almost all perished.

Rosen kept the doll away; Amy didn't need it to remind her of him.

However, this doll also gave him a reminder that the mechanical creation transformed into a miracle treasure would surely satisfy the Eternal Mechanical City.

Because all mechanical creations that transform into miracles and treasures must possess unique characteristics found only in heaven and earth.

Mechanically manufactured objects are characterized by mass production and extremely complex structures.

Miracle treasures originate from miracles, and mass production itself greatly reduces the probability of a miracle being born. Furthermore, the complex structure also reduces the chance of a miracle treasure being born. The combination of these two factors means that the probability of a miracle treasure being born is almost zero.

However, as long as it's not zero, Lawson will accept it.

He quickly gathered relevant information through the God Network and then bought a Sequence 7 mechanical bat.

The teleportation ritual was activated almost immediately as the mechanical bat was placed on the metal altar.

The mechanical bats disappeared, and the metal altar disintegrated and reassembled into a mechanical portal.

Rosen, holding Amy's little hand, passed through the portal and arrived at the highest point of the Eternal Mechanical City.

Below is a platform resembling a rooftop, and below that is a mechanical skyscraper made entirely of various metals. From here, one can overlook the entire Eternal Mechanical City, which shows no signs of age despite the passage of countless years.

The entire city is three-dimensional, with countless metal skyscrapers standing orderly within it.

Between the skyscrapers, countless metal bridges connect them.

There are no roads on the ground; all roads are in the air.

The trains that shuttle through the sky seem to never stop, and the factories on the outskirts of the city never cease operation. All the mechanical creations produced by automation are scattered on the outermost edge of the Eternal Mechanical City.

The entire Eternal Mechanical City was enormous; Rosen estimated it to be a full 30,000 li in circumference.

Moreover, it continues to expand outwards. The mechanical creations produced by the factories in Eternal Mechanical City are constantly being used to build Eternal Mechanical City, and almost all the mechanical creations that can be seen in the city are civilian mechanical creations.

How could a city where even immortal gods and demons cannot forcibly enter possibly have all its mechanical creations for civilian use?

Rosen took out a city map; before he came in, the map was completely blank.

But now it's different; a dynamic 3D map has appeared on it.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the surface portion of Eternal Mechanical City was all for civilian use, but there were no residents left. Only countless mechanical creations continued to mechanically maintain the city's operation, and there were almost no dangerous places within the city.

All military mechanical creations are concentrated in the outer city of Eternal Mechanical City.

The city is divided into two parts: the inner city and the outer city. The inner city is used for residential living and also houses some research institutions.

Then the entire inner city space was compressed and placed under layers of protection by the outer city.

After he entered through the teleportation ritual, he could only freely walk around official institutions such as the municipal building. Outside of official institutions, he could only walk in public areas. Anyone who forcibly entered any private area would be expelled from the Eternal Mechanical City.

Rosen stepped into the elevator of the municipal building and began exploring the entire building with Amy.

The harvest was meager, because almost everything of value had already been taken by those who came before.

The most valuable institutions at present are the various research institutions in the inner city, from which many of the brilliant developments of science and technology originated.

However, after a few days, all I got was disappointment.

The reason is simple: the mechanical technology of Eternal Mechanical City is extremely advanced, even the civilian-use technologies are very powerful.

However, the Eternal Mechanical City has lost its master, and no intelligent life has been born here.

Therefore, the Eternal Mechanical City lacks creativity, and its mechanical technology has hardly grown or changed.

Those who came here before him had already taken all the technology they could carry away.

These technologies have been developed for countless years in the world of ancient gods, and have long since surpassed their predecessors.

The only place in Eternal Mechanical City that is truly more advanced than the outside world is the countless military mechanical creations in the outer city.

However, even immortal gods and demons could die in the outer city if they forced their way in.

Therefore, to obtain the military technology of the outer city, one must completely control the Eternal Mechanical City.

The core of the Eternal Mechanical City is the Mechanical Source Seed, and the most urgent task is to find the Mechanical Source Seed.

Rosen quickly discovered that the mechanical source was located inside the artificial sun in the sky.

Upon careful examination, the Eternal Omniscient discovered that this mechanical sun was actually a mechanical creation of the level of an immortal god or demon.

It is virtually impossible to seize the mechanical source from there.

The computer system analyzed all the clues and quickly drew some conclusions.

First of all, the private areas of Eternal Mechanical City are sacred and inviolable. Even the mechanical golems maintained by the city government will never step into any private area. At most, they will only repair the surface and will never trespass into the private area.

Rosen immediately released a superhuman prisoner to see what would happen if he entered without going through the teleportation ritual.
He was killed by the mechanical guards, and his body was thrown into the furnace and burned to ashes.

He then released a number of extraordinary prisoners, the strongest of whom even possessed divine power that surpassed that of the mechanical guards.

The mechanical guards were dismantled, and several mechanical skyscrapers suffered considerable damage.

Military mechanical constructs from the outer city immediately appeared, not only instantly killing the prisoner but also continuing to attack Rosen. Clearly, he had been stripped of his right to remain in the city by the Eternal Mechanical City because of his previous actions.

Rosen could only hide in the mysterious study, but fortunately Amy was not implicated and was able to remain in the city.

Although they lost the right to move around, their previous attempts were not without results.

While the superhuman prisoners were destroying the mechanical skyscraper, Rosen took the opportunity to retrieve some corpses from the private areas inside the building.

These corpses are all made of machinery, very similar to the mechanical races of the ancient god world.

Rosen even suspected that the machine race originated from these corpses.

The progenitor of the machine race was undoubtedly human. Later, they abandoned their human flesh and blood and created pure mechanical bodies. This was probably because the progenitor of the machine race did the same thing and obtained the corpses of the mysterious machine race in these private areas.

Over the long years, even mechanical corpses made of metal will mostly decay to the point of no longer existing.

Rosen and Amy pieced together a body repair, but the mechanical components, which were essentially the brain, were so badly damaged that they were beyond repair. As a result, no memories could be found. The only certainty was that the mechanical components of these mechanical corpses' brains were destroyed in an instant before they died.

Unable to gain the memories, Rosen began to try to assimilate the mechanical corpse.

If they can be perfectly assimilated, they might be able to disguise themselves as natives of the Eternal Mechanical City.

However, even with the use of the eternally compatible source, the fusion still failed.

Because inside the corpse lies an eternal mechanical essence with extremely strong repulsive properties.

With no other option, Rosen could only use the Root Worm Mother to combine with the Birth Source Seed to parasitize these mechanical corpses and see what could be grown from the nutrients it absorbed. Perhaps it could even blossom and bear fruit to give birth to a living, mysterious mechanical life form.
