Calamity Dragon, Starting with the Cultivation of Knight Families

Chapter 291 Black Prison Clan Frontline, Nano-Silicon-Based Life
Use line-of-sight distance as the anchor point.

Within the sea of ​​stars, all thirteen ancient deities mobilized.

It is headed by thirteen ancient deities.

Centered on the Shadow World, each of them carried at least ten powerful deities from different directions to begin traversing the subspace.

Their actions were reckless.

It means using one's own divine vision as an anchor point to continuously leap towards the farthest direction that one can see.

After all, they are not like Lin Ke.

As a powerful deity with the authority of the blazing sun, Lin Ke could traverse space much more easily than they could.

By simply using the nearest sun as a springboard and continuously jumping, one can quickly find out if there is any living life in the surrounding star sea.

Just like this moment.

When Kukudar returned to the Crimson World and slept in a void black hole found by Linko, Linko directly ordered five of the thirteen Blood Ancestors to guard Kukudar's ascension.

Meanwhile, Lin Ke himself had already begun his own reconnaissance of the Black Prison Clan's world community in secret.

If Lin Ke hadn't known about the Thousand-Faced God's special abilities from the beginning, perhaps he could have proceeded step by step with the civilization war based on the planets explored in the real game, taking a steady and methodical approach.

But now that we know about the Thousand-Faced God.

Lin Ke realized that it was better to get up there himself than to spend time waiting for the search results from the real game each time.

After all, He possesses the power of the blazing sun.

There is absolutely no need to expend any energy when jumping between stars.

Thus, by constantly traversing different star systems, and with his powerful spiritual vision, he could, with a single sweep, instantly ascertain the situation within most star systems and whether or not life existed.

Therefore, Lin Ke used the star where the Shadow World was located.

It began a series of leaps and bounds.

A solar system, a leap from one solar system to another.

In this process, Lin Ke quickly explored the conditions of thousands of star systems.

But it must be said that life in the universe is truly a miracle.

After visiting thousands of star systems, Lin Ke still failed to discover a single living organism, or even a living planet.

However, compared to the boundless universe, a region of thousands of star systems is really nothing.

Therefore, Lin Ke didn't pay too much attention and just continued to rapidly jump between different star systems in a step-by-step manner.

And so, about three months after the actual game recording began.

Finally, Linco spotted signs of life in a star system.

A powerful divine vision swept across the star field.

In Lin Ke's perception, it is right at the edge of this star system.

Two biomes are currently engaged in battle.

Firstly, needless to say, they are the Black Prison Clan.

However, there don't seem to be many Black Prisoners on the edge of this star system.

The total number is probably only six or seven hundred thousand.

Compared to the vastness of space, this is a true interstellar war, and its scale is truly remarkable.

As for the other side...

Lin Ke observed carefully and found this civilization, which was fighting against the Black Prison Clan, to be very interesting.

It appears to be an interstellar civilization that relies solely on technology.

Particle cannons, energy shields, and even large swarms of drones.

These drone combat groups are even more advanced than those of the Star Empire.

The reason is simple: Lin Ke discovered that some of the larger drones possessed the ability to transform.

Furthermore, their metallic bodies can liquefy at any time, thus transforming into other forms.

No.

Lin Ke observed carefully for a while and then discovered...

During the battle, this interstellar civilization proved to be far more powerful than Link had imagined.

Because Lin Ke misunderstood from the very beginning.

The massive interstellar fleet opposite them could actually be considered a single entity!
Even the massive starships could instantly disintegrate and transform into various other flying combat units of different shapes the moment they were breached by the Black Prison Clan.

Some starships, even after exploding, can have their remaining parts quickly repaired, like thousands of fireflies gathering together again.

A hive-like interstellar civilization?
Or is this a purely silicon-based interstellar civilization?

There are no carbon-based life forms!

Yes, throughout the battle with the Black Prison Clan, Linko never saw any real flesh and blood creatures appear in the opposing fleet.

Moreover, these are mechanical creations.

Lin Ke carefully scanned the area using his divine power and discovered this.

Its basic unit is actually a nanobot that is only slightly larger than a magic particle!
These nanobugs resemble scarab beetles.

Although their overall structure is composed of metal particles, they also possess the characteristics of life.

In other words, these nanobots are the core component of this interstellar civilization!
They are true silicon-based life!

Although they are small, they possess an extremely fast regeneration rate and are highly aggressive.

They can devour all elements, metals, and even magic; they consume almost anything.

Therefore, during the battle with the Black Prison Clan, it was visible to the naked eye.

The small legion of the Black Prison Clan has gradually been suppressed by the army of nanobots.

The black flames of the Black Prison, and even the gods within them, are able to continuously kill large numbers of interstellar fleets composed of nanobots.

But it's a pity.

Any Black Prison Clan member killed by the Nanobugs will have their flesh and blood, along with their magic and spiritual particles, become food for these Nanobugs.

At the same time, after consuming these substances, the nanobots can quickly split into new individuals.

One becomes two, two becomes four, four becomes eight
The fighting power of this silicon-based life form was even beyond Lin Ke's comprehension.

And, in the very next instant.

Lin Ke was also fortunate enough to witness a terrifying number of nanobots gathering together and transforming into a metallic beetle comparable to a god.

The entire beetle is golden yellow.

While shining brightly, its wingspan also exceeds six thousand kilometers.

Even after these god-level beetles appeared, Lin Ke sensed a highly intelligent look in their metallic eyes in an instant.

Its hateful gaze was fixed on the Black Prison Clan deity.

At the same time, it roared and shot out a terrifying ray, which instantly swept across almost one-tenth of the battlefield.

But it's a pity.

This beetle, at best, possesses the power of a false god.

Because this super beetle does not possess divine status, let alone the power of laws.

Therefore, although it killed a large number of high-level and even saint-level Black Prison Clan members with a single strike.

But as the Black Prison Clan deity, in his elemental form, flashed by, the entire golden beetle was pierced by a terrifying black flame ray.

With just one strike, the golden beetle disintegrated.

Lin Ke also thought that this was the best that the golden beetle could do.

But then, something happened that surprised Lin Ke the next moment.

Because, right after the Black Prison Clan deity transformed into an elemental form and pierced through the golden beetle with a single blow.

After the Golden Beetle disintegrated, a large number of remaining nanobots transformed into flowing yellow sand at an incredible speed, completely enveloping the Black Prison Clan deity!

The Black Prison Clan member, whose physique resembled a two-horned demon, roared.

It even suddenly burst into terrifying black flames. But the nanobots that should have been instantly melted by it also changed at this moment.

These nanobots' bodies suddenly lit up with large amounts of golden light.

The golden light continuously countered the erosion of the black flames, while the nanobots began to frantically devour the deity's body.

No matter how this deity changes, or even transforms back into an elemental state, it is not a problem.

These nanobots remained like maggots clinging to bones, completely impossible to shake off.

Although during this process, many nanobots were melted into ash by the deity's black flames.

However, many nanobots have already pierced through the divine barrier surrounding this Black Prison Clan deity.

And so, very soon, under Lin Ke's astonished gaze...

Amidst the terrified roar of the Black Prison Clan deity, this deity, who possessed only weak divine power, was instantly devoured by the swarm of golden beetles.

The golden beetles that had devoured the Black Prison Clan gods now multiplied even further.

Even more so, because it devoured the divine body and flesh of the gods.

These nanobots also underwent a different change in their bodies. At least, in Lin Ke's eyes, the newly born nanobots were covered with a layer of black stripes on their entire bodies.

So, when these newly formed nanobots aggregated again...

Soon, a Black Prison Clan deity, similar to the two-horned demon from before, appeared.

Its entire body is covered in intertwined gold and black patterns, making it look incredibly eerie.

Despite the appearance of this metal deity, Linko still couldn't sense any spellcasting techniques from him.

However, it has been greatly enhanced in terms of resistance to black flames and even resistance to spells.

"WTF?"

"Can this be considered a man-made deity?"

Looking at the scene before him, Lin Ke thought to himself that the world was indeed full of wonders.

Nano-silicon-based life.

Artificial metal deities.

These guys really do have a way of defeating gods using technology!

Moreover, it's not hard for Lin Ke to guess from this small part of the battlefield.

This civilization, currently at war with the Black Prison Clan, is undoubtedly the most powerful civilization among the surrounding world clusters.

They are also the main enemies of the Black Prison Clan in this region.

Therefore, Lin Ke has reason to believe that the main force of this nanobot civilization is definitely much stronger than the small army he currently commands.

The war here ended quickly.

There was no suspense at all.

Because this small legion of the Black Prison Clan only has three deities.

Moreover, they are all at the level of weak deities.

It's far inferior to even the power that guards the Shadow World.

Lin Ke had reason to believe that this Black Prison Clan legion was likely just a reconnaissance unit.

The reconnaissance unit encountered the combat unit.

It's obvious that they're at a disadvantage.

After all, as Lin Ke watched, while the two legions were clashing, a massive fleet was hidden in the dark void some distance away.

The size of the entire fleet even far exceeded Lin Ke's expectations.

A quick glance was taken at the scene.

There are no fewer than a million individual starships!
This is what a real army looks like!
Moreover, the other party was clearly prepared.

Comparison with Star Empire
Well, Anita, the current Omnic Goddess, is really not living up to her name.

Although, over the years, with the help of the Pantheon, the Omnic God Anita has installed many divine power crystals on her 'ride', the Thirty-Six-Clawed Octopus.

It even used materials made from the power of the laws of the divine realm to forge its body, but it could barely fight against a weak god.

Compared to the power of this small army to annihilate a god.

Anita still has a long way to go.

As for the size of the omnic army under Anita's control?

Large in scale or large in size.

Currently, across more than ten worlds, Anita has built an omnic army of nearly thirty million starships.

But that only applies to the increased quantity.

Faced with gods, or even this current army of nanobots, they might be annihilated in an instant.

After all, while Anita has made breakthroughs in nanotechnology research, her nanobots couldn't devour everything like the nanobots we have now.

It even possesses the power to divide and reproduce.

Ultimately, this is a typical example of the gap between silicon-based life and purely technological civilization.

Breakthroughs in science and technology are not achieved overnight.

Even with the assistance of the mystical side, development in all aspects still requires a gradual process and time.

After all, not everyone is Lin Ke.

It is possible to transform from an ordinary person to a deity with authority in less than two thousand years.

However, at this point, we saw nanolife.

Lin Ke naturally wouldn't let it go either.

These nanolife forms are truly remarkable, and perhaps even extremely threatening.

This terrifying ability to reproduce and evolve is practically like having a cheat code.

Although the Star Empire may not currently have any conflict with this civilization.

But since we've seen them, it wouldn't be a bad idea to catch some for Anita to study.

Thus, it was merely a fleeting thought.

The next moment, a starship-class nanopolymer unit suddenly and inexplicably disappeared from the nanoarmy that was cleaning up the battlefield.

At the same time, under the protection of the Lin Ke space cage, the starship seemed to be transformed into a sculpture, sealed in the frozen space.

No matter how powerful nanobots are in the material world.

The inability to possess the power of laws remains an irreparable shortcoming.

Even if these nanobots can devour all elements and matter, so what?
How can the invisible and intangible forces of spatial laws bite them?

Even if these nanobugs are the size of particles in the microscopic world, as long as they exist in the material world, they can naturally be bound by the power of space.

Not to mention, Lin Ke is a deity of the highest authority.

Therefore, it couldn't be easier to do some research.

In fact, these guys can't even send a message out.

Having done all this, Linko used spatial anchoring to quickly bring these nanobots back to the astral plane of the Crimson World.

Upon receiving the news, the android Anita was naturally eager to control a large number of androids to receive the valuable research materials.

However, in order to study these guys safely...

Ultimately, the android Anita even sought help from a supreme deity.

Anita's request wasn't high; she just wanted this supreme god to help her get these nanobots into the divine realm, and then use the power of the divine realm to restrain them, so that she could study them at her own pace.

Of course, Lin Ke didn't care about these things.

After sending the nanobots back, it moved again and rapidly migrated to other nearby star systems.

Because Lin Ke knew that he should not be far from the front line of the great battle between the Black Prison Clan and the enemy in this star field.

Therefore, after Lin Ke left, the nano-legion of this million-starship remained in place, maintaining a state of high alert with great anxiety.
