Elf Trader: My trump card is the Light/Dark Mantis.

But Cole is indeed a worthy opponent.

Sagros also reciprocated with his respect!

It gathered the power of darkness and unleashed its attack—the Netherworld Soaring Sword!

Like Frost Smash, it is a STAB move with a power of 130 and no special effects!

Of course, given Sagros's strength, it would be unfair to clash with attacks of equal power...

Ice crystals shot in from all directions, seemingly intent on completely engulfing the Dark Mantis!

As Sagros gathered his combat-type energy, he slowly drew a jet-black sword!

Then, with an easy strike!

It aimed at the direction behind Cole, deliberately making the blade avoid him.

However, under the terrifying power, the blade that merely grazed the air was directly cleaved by the frost, tearing the air around Cole to shreds!

The future Ice-type Spirit King was swept by the blade wind, its ice armor shattering! It was severely injured and lost its ability to fight!

Cole collapsed to the ground in pain.

Jiang Gu stepped forward without hesitation and threw out an Elf Capsule.

To his surprise, Cole was quite determined and managed to break free.

But Jiang Gu remained calm and continued to drop the capsules.

After detonating ten capsules, the future Ice-type Elf King was successfully captured.

Jiang Gu also showed a happy smile.

This wave of activity against Celia Star is definitely worthwhile!

He was in a great mood; catching just one Kroa would definitely be a waste of time.

But if we happen to bump into Cole, who is on the throne of Axia, then this operation will have been well worth it!

The evolved form of Kold has a base stat total of 690, making it a rather powerful deity!

Equal to Empress Axia.

Furthermore, after evolution, the fifth skill, exclusive trait, and soul imprint can all be unlocked.

That's enough to make Xiao Lan a top powerhouse in the Pokémon world!

Jiang Gu came to Cysilia Star with the mindset of trying his luck.

If we could easily defeat Ray, that would be great.

He doesn't care if it doesn't work out.

Although the mission failed to achieve its objective, the capture of Cole was a successful one.

This put Jiang Gu in a very good mood.

After capturing the future Ice Elf Queen, he and Sagros did not linger and returned directly to the spaceship.

While passing by Herka's spaceship, they also delivered some elven food to the Xuanbing Beast clan.

Naturally, Jiang Gu was once again showered with profuse thanks by the group of elves...

After the minor incident, Jiang Gu and Sagros lay down in the ship's lounge, closing their eyes to rest.

Waiting for the spaceship to arrive at the homeland of the Herka aliens.

The trainer and his trusted lieutenants are also gathering their strength, preparing for a decisive battle with Ray!

[Herka Star Arrived] [Herka Star Arrived] [Herka Star...] Hearing the announcement from the spaceship, Jiang Gu slowly opened his eyes.

Sagros, on the other hand, had woken up early. A blue aura formed by the power of the Mystic type swirled around it, making it look quite extraordinary.

Dark Mantis's eyes were deep, as if it was already pondering how to deal with Ray when it fought him...

Their fighting spirit is high.

Jiang Gu stood up and reached out his hand to his spirit.

"Let's go and meet that God of Thunder."

Sagros nodded steadily, though a barely perceptible hint of excitement and agitation flashed in his eyes.

"Saro!"

"Saro!"

Sagros let out a somewhat surprised cry.

The planet before me is completely different from any I've ever seen before.

Whether it's a cloud planet, an ocean planet, or a volcanic planet, they are all just different natural landscapes.

But Herka is different.

This is a completely silver-gray mechanical planet.

At first, when Sagros looked through the observation instruments on the spaceship, he thought it was the special terrain and environment that made the silvery-gray appearance appear.

0……Please give me flowers…

Upon actually arriving at Herka, it discovered that what it saw in space was not the natural landscape of Herka.

Rather, it's the appearance of the planet completely transformed by the Herka aliens!

Jiang Gu and Sagros were currently on the surface of Herka.

The place is filled with machinery and metal, covering everything!

There are absolutely no natural phenomena on the planet.

A kingdom purely of machines!

But when Sagros and Jiang Gu glanced around, all they saw were the wreckage of countless broken machines and what looked like a long-abandoned residential area.

The steel and machinery may have once had a bright silver exterior, but now almost all of them are a pale yellow and dark red, decayed appearance.

Clearly, the surrounding machinery had been broken down for a long time.

This planet was once extremely prosperous, but now it is extremely desolate and barren.

Jiang Gu also felt a little emotional.

The Herka aliens possessed extremely advanced technology and civilization; even their remaining spaceships were difficult for someone like Ray to destroy.

But they were also destroyed by their own powerful technology...

Jiang Gu knew this based on the background story.

Thousands of years ago, the Herka aliens overexploited their planet in their quest to create a more glorious mechanical age, and created giant robots.

However, the created robot developed independent thought and possessed an evil desire to destroy everything, so it betrayed the Herka aliens who created it.

The mechanical spirits were controlled to launch a rebellion and massacre their own masters.

The Herka aliens suffered heavy casualties.

Although they found the giant robot's weakness and defeated it.

However, the backlash from the technology continued to strike, ultimately leading the Herka civilization to its self-destruction.

Then comes the story of the Byron, which Jiang Gu encountered during his previous exploration.

In order to preserve civilization, Elder Herka led the survivors to launch the Byron escape plan, taking with them intact and loyal mechanical spirits in an attempt to escape the Pano system.

However, he was then unlucky enough to be hit by an asteroid belt and "attacked" by the Shadow Fiend Yonas.

Jiang Gu had seen the sights of the Byron...

The last embers of the Herka civilization have long been extinguished...

A group that once possessed extremely advanced technology was thus destroyed by its own technology.

And a little bit of bad luck.

Jiang Gu's only thought was...

The writers of Seer were indeed limited by the times. When Jiang Gu was a child, various science fiction articles often depicted stories of being devoured by technology, which is why the Herka aliens had such an ending.

"Saro!"

Jiang Gu pondered, but Sagros seemed somewhat uneasy.

It didn't lament the fate of the Herka aliens, but sensed that the energy on this planet was extremely unstable.

In addition to mechanical energy, there is also a chaotic interweaving of supernatural energy.

If a weak elf survives here for too long, it will surely mutate!

Dark Mantis was somewhat worried about Jiang Gu's health.

Chapter 176: Bibi Mouse

Jiang Gu frowned as he looked at the dark, smoky sky.

It was almost exactly the same place as the chemical plant I lived in before I transmigrated.
