Wasteland Development Diary.

Chapter 428 Pay me your patent fee!

Zhou Yi started panoramic reading through Maoshen.

The huge black hand showed [Light Core Body LV1·Unknown].

[This unit has no intelligence and weak consciousness. It has been transformed into a tool. ]

It really is a photonuclear body.

Zhou Yi was a little confused.

No.

The Legal Front has only been in power for half a year, how come they have developed even the Light Core? This mechatronic city also has the property of becoming stronger when it encounters a stronger opponent?

The battlefield confrontation escalates.

The black thread stretched out by the giant hand entangled the golden core of the curling stone, solidifying a layer of ice crystals on its surface, and forcibly shrinking the misty structure of the curling stone by a large circle.

It pulls atmospheric lifeforms downward in an attempt to capture them.

The two sides were temporarily stuck in a stalemate of power confrontation.

Zhou Yi gave the order to Cat God: "Support curling."

He thought to himself that it was a good thing that he sent out the dual light core and concentrating body lineup, otherwise he would not be able to take over this large city.

"Chairman, Curling said that this level is not a problem."

The cat god responded: "It is testing the opponent's strength and energy properties to confirm the opponent's source, so it is on the defensive."

"The mission is not affected. The entire city is still cut off from the outside world."

"Eh? Wait a minute."

"The analysis of Curling's consciousness is complete. That thing is not a truly complete life. Its consciousness is empty. It has no self. It only has the purest killing and attacking instructions."

"It launches a pure consciousness attack on the outside, with extremely strong destructive power. However, Curling has a large number of consciousness bodies and a special golden elephant flag structure that can pull and consume the opponent. Otherwise, it is indeed difficult to deal with."

"That thing needs to be charged. The intensive firing of missiles and anti-aircraft guns before was to buy it time to charge and start. The large upright device is the control panel, which is used to launch it outward through a series of operations."

Zhou Yi stared at the source of the "Giant Killer", at the top of the mechanical jellyfish, where there was a circle of columns composed of transparent crystal structures.

The more he looked, the more familiar it seemed.

Aren’t these the gem cells of celestial beings?

Because Zhou Yi often manipulates gem bodies, he is too familiar with these basic units.

The Legal Front created such a light core device based on the Celestial Gem, which can release the giant killer to launch a powerful consciousness attack.

The Kingdom of Heaven holds some gems, and it seems that the first electromechanical city to surrender also has them.

At the same time, Cat God also confirmed the information from the electric cats.

"Chairman, that mechanical jellyfish is David."

"It is a controlled strategic-level device, reaching Class A strength, and can be equipped with many high-risk weapons."

"It was only when we issued the ultimatum that the electric cats received the city's order to use this weapon to attack and delay us."

"The whole city is providing energy to support the giant killer. It will be difficult for Curling to defeat it."

"The electric cats were convinced by me. They have already controlled the electromechanical spiders to retreat into the Dead Sea."

Zhou Yi frowned when he heard this.

He glanced at the black water ghost on his left wrist.

The countdown now only has three minutes left.

According to the information provided by Red Falcon, the number of mechanical and electrical residents in Clockwork City is approximately 2.

Although the atmospheric creatures showed up and announced their identities, the fastest to run away were the flesh and blood creatures here, and very few electromechanical creatures left.

The vast majority of the mechanical and electrical residents stayed in the city to fight.

On the battlefield, that is the enemy.

It's almost time.

There's no point in delaying any further.

Zhou Yi ordered: "No more waiting. Drop the bomb."

"Yes!"

The cat god immediately conveyed the order.

High in the sky, the crystals outside the golden ball shattered into pieces, causing circles of air waves to vibrate, and the black line was also suppressed and lowered in height step by step.

A regular dodecahedron crystal slowly precipitated out of the golden ball.

It was now covered with a layer of golden light.

[Solid Cloud Tincture] falls straight down at high speed.

The giant killer operator seemed to find something wrong and used black claws to capture and block the energy blocks, but as soon as they got close to the golden light, the many black lines were directly melted and dissipated.

The cat god’s perspective was filled with dazzling golden light.

When he regained his vision, Zhou Yi found that the city below had disappeared.

The center of the explosion was a huge pit with a diameter of 1 km and a depth of over 100 meters.

All buildings within a radius of 5 kilometers were completely destroyed, and factories, streets, and a large number of above-ground and underground fortifications were razed to the ground.

There was no sign of life.

All that remained on the ground were large pieces of glassy material melted by high temperatures, reflecting strange colorful light under the sun.

Entire cities were wiped out.

Zhou Yi had an intuitive understanding of the power of the LV4 light nuclear bomb.

This thing is a genuine heavyweight nuclear weapon.

Just throwing and detonating one can instantly destroy a large city.

Zhou Yi gave the order again: "The strategic goal has been achieved, retreat."

The three armed rights protection employees immediately turned into streams of light and disappeared over the ruins.

After a while.

Two drones approached and began to survey the steaming city ruins, scanning with red light in search of all kinds of data. …

The whole incident took only 2 minutes.

Miedinggong contacted me immediately and said, "Clockwork City has completely disappeared from the satellite map. There are rumors that it was you who did it?"

"it's me."

Zhou Yi admitted.

"Great, great! This is creating unprecedented history!"

"Since the birth of the electromechanical city, no large electromechanical city has ever been destroyed by external forces!"

Miedinggong was immediately excited: "Tell me, what are the city defense systems of large-scale electromechanical cities? How strong are they?"

This aspect has been observed in detail by the concentrator.

Zhou Yi told it: "In terms of cohesion and organization, they are not on the same level as small and medium-sized cities. They have large populations, more available resources, strong dispatching capabilities, and perhaps also have the advantage of a legal model."

"In terms of urban defense, they have at least 10 medium-to-large launchers that can fire long-range missiles, densely deployed anti-aircraft guns, and the number of drones intercepted in the air is also more than 400."

"In terms of high-end combat power, the core of Clockwork City is the Giant Killer, a special weapon transformed from the Celestial Gem, which has extremely strong destructive power."

"The Giant Killer is activated by charging, and can reach the level of a light core body under the energy supply of the entire city. It is installed on the A-level device "David" and is controlled by electromechanical life..."

Miedinggong listened very carefully and asked about some specific parameters and morphological patterns from time to time.

After listening, it said with some heaviness: "The mechanical and electrical city's ability to adjust and optimize is really too fast. A lot of combat data was obtained from the battle of the energy storage city alone. Under normal circumstances, even the atmospheric creatures would not be able to break through this city this time. Instead, they might be seriously injured and captured."

"There is indeed a reason why the Black Emperor has been wary of the Mechanical and Electrical City for a long time."

Zhou Yi also agreed with this.

The Lord of Arms also said that the Mechanical and Electrical City has great potential and will be extremely difficult to deal with if it becomes an enemy.

Mieding Gong asked again: "By the way, why do you want to get rid of Clockwork City? Is that city trying to incite rebellion and poach company employees?"

Zhou Yi said: "It is armed rights protection."

"Armed rights protection...what does that mean?"

The other party was puzzled.

Zhou Yi explained.

"..."

Miedinggong was silent.

After a long time, it said, "Although the reason seems a bit fake at first, I believe your words are true."

"fair enough."

It is fair to say: "The loss of an energy storage city can be ignored by the electromechanical city cluster. At that time, it was still under the general protocol model."

"But the size, scale and influence of the Clockwork City are completely different. There are less than 30 such large cities, which have a strong voice in the electromechanical city group, and the weight of the data center is also extremely high."

"If large cities cannot protect every resident, then the safety rating and comprehensive evaluation will drop significantly. This will affect the overall evaluation of the entire electromechanical city system."

"It takes a long time to build confidence and public common sense, but destruction and decline happen in an instant."

"I estimate that the destruction of Clockwork City will bring two results."

"The first is that the Legal Front should come to you to discuss the patent fee. Compared with the risk of a large city being destroyed, paying some patent fees can be regarded as public safety expenses."

It said: "Second, more residents will realize that large mechanical and electrical cities are not absolutely safe places. Risk assessment will affect their decision-making, and some mechanical and electrical lives will consider settling in other places outside. The migration of population is inevitable, but it depends on how the legal front will remedy the situation and whether this part of the population migrating out will be more or less."

Zhou Yi didn't think so much.

He had one purpose from beginning to end.

You paid me your patent fee!

Talking to you reasonably is respecting the rules, but if you don’t give me justice, then I will find justice in my own way.

15 minute later.

The armed rights protection team returned to Emerald City and gave Zhou Yi a detailed report.

Jiong Hecang, who was watching the whole process, said: "I have been conducting continuous high-precision observations of the Clockwork City. There are many missile launchers under this city, which store a large number of Class B missiles."

"The high-altitude drones nearby have collected a large amount of data on the curling, which is a hidden danger to us. In the future, when facing electromechanical cities, atmospheric organisms will be increasingly targeted and restrained."

Zhou Yi nodded: "So we also need to improve the diversity of our operations and be prepared for danger in times of peace."

"Also, Chairman."

Jiong Hecang continued, "The Clockwork City was equipped with a lot of new recording equipment, which recorded the entire process of our strategic strike. The mechanical spiders and robot dogs were holding them, and they tried to escape after recording. However, like those launch pads, they were all destroyed by our strategic strike. I also eliminated all the scattered escapes."

"In addition, Curling and I conducted cross-observations in the fields of energy and consciousness and found that the local electromechanical life forms did not want to escape. It was just that the legal front stipulated that the residents had an obligation to protect the city. In extraordinary times, they would be urgently called into service to participate in the defense of the city and everyone's public property."

"So most of them were unable to leave. The only ones who were evacuated were disabled residents who were exempt from military service, those who were too weak to use tools, and those with special occupations."

"A total of 17811 Clockwork City residents participated in this battle. 17811 died. There were no survivors."

Zhou Yi's brows relaxed.

It turned out to be the case.

The legal front has mandatory regulations that require everyone to be a soldier, so it’s no wonder that the mechanical and electrical residents are united this time.

This mechanism has obvious advantages and disadvantages.

It forces all residents to transform into warriors at any time and directly participate in the war, which can enhance the city's defense and cohesion.

But if a light nuclear-level bomb is dropped this time, all the residents in the city will be buried with it.

The battlefield has always been cruel and deadly.

What Zhou Yi didn't expect was that before the people from the legal front arrived, the messenger from the kingdom of heaven came to his door first.

"Mr. Zhou, I haven't seen you for a long time. You are still so energetic."

"This time I came here specially to visit you on the orders of His Majesty the Black Emperor."

The visitor is Feng Che, the ambassador of Heaven to the Shuanghe region.

The name also changed from "you" to "you".
