Chapter 278 The Dwarfs' Divine Machine! Damage Overload! (Please Subscribe)

"Fellow colleagues, get your weapons ready! I feel like we're all going to be sacrificed!"

Lin Li's words, disguised as a dwarf, were like a bucket of ice water poured over the burning heads of all the dwarves.

The noisy armory fell silent instantly, leaving only the astonished gazes of a few dwarves.

"What do you mean?" a dwarf asked blankly, his throat a little dry.

"Idiot! Didn't you understand? We've been used by the elders as sacrifices to awaken this thing!" Lin Li's voice carried a hint of barely suppressed impatience.

"Nonsense! This elder is my uncle; don't try to demoralize the troops!"

"Wait a minute, Tyr, what are you doing here? Weren't you supposed to be one of the gunners in this group?"

Before the dwarf could finish his question, Lin Li had already darted backward like a raccoon.

He stayed close to the shadows of the steel weapon racks in the warehouse, quickly creating distance between himself and the dozens of dwarves, and took advantage of the chaos to shield everyone in front of him!

His intuition told him that an immense, colossal entity was awakening ahead.

The other dwarves, who had previously focused on the equipment and wanted to continue questioning Lin Li, had also sensed the danger.

A clear vibration came from the steel floor beneath my feet, followed by a creaking sound of metal twisting from the deepest darkness of the warehouse.

The sound was enormous and heavy, with a teeth-grinding friction, like a giant, rusty gear being forced to turn.

This Dwarf Armory No. 2 was built hundreds of meters underground, which made it ridiculously large, with a towering dome hidden in the darkness.

The walls and floor were made of an unknown black material, which seemed to swallow up the light, making the already dim environment even more eerie.

Even dwarves with superhuman night vision couldn't see those things!

"How can a divine machine wake up automatically?"

"Wasn't it said that the God Machine was about to be activated?"

"Light the lamps! Light the lamps now!" a dwarf shouted, finally realizing what was happening.

Several dwarves hurriedly pulled out palm-sized metal boxes from their waists, pried open the lids, and sprinkled a small pinch of shimmering magic stone powder onto the kerosene wick in the center.

"Sizzle!"

With a soft sound, several solid beams of intense light shot out instantly, piercing the thick darkness like sharp swords.

The dwarf's hand-crafted high-powered lamp casts a straight beam with extremely strong penetrating power.

When one of the beams of light swept in the direction from which the sound came, everyone held their breath.

In the darkness, a silhouette emerged under the beam of light!

It was a leg, a giant leg made entirely of steel, covered with jagged spikes and thick rivets, and the lower leg alone was as tall as two dwarfs.

boom!

It's moving ahead of its time!

The dwarf holding the spotlight swallowed hard, and after his hand trembled several times, the beam of light finally moved upwards.

This enormous, overwhelmingly imposing body was displayed before everyone's eyes.

It was a steel giant that was at least fifteen meters tall!

Its robust appearance is full of dwarven violent aesthetics, with heavy armor covered with spikes and runes engraved on it in some places, exuding an eerie and solid killing beauty.

It has four mechanical limbs in total, with two huge mechanical arms, one holding a shield and the other holding a strange giant axe.

On its upper shoulder was a menacing single-barreled cannon, covered with a jumble of shells. The other shoulder carried a massive, retractable mechanical claw, resembling an octopus tentacle!

What's most unsettling is its heavy and bizarre mechanical head.

A huge, blood-red, bizarre gem was embedded inside the mechanical head. The upper part of the strange mechanical head seemed to be hollow and concave, and the head was covered with twisted runes.

At first glance, it looks extremely strange and evil!

At this moment, the strange red gem was flashing with a cold red light, slowly scanning the dwarves who had intruded into this place.

It seems to be pondering something!

"Ancestors above, is this the machine of the gods? It's so tall and so huge!"

"Haha, it will definitely be able to hunt down those despicable invaders!"

A young dwarf, his face flushed and his eyes gleaming with fanaticism, trembled with excitement.

"Shut up! Look carefully!" An old, white-bearded dwarf slapped him on the back of the head, his voice trembling, pointing at the steel giant. "This is so similar to—it's so similar to the Wrath of the Iron Hammer described in the books! But, but it's not like this in the books! How did it become so ferocious?"

Lin Li's expression was equally unpleasant.

What "Iron Hammer Fury"? This thing is clearly a Titan mech!

A colossal bipedal war machine. Although it is less than 15 meters tall, its configuration includes a shoulder-mounted cannon, retractable mechanical claws, a giant axe, and a heavy shield. Coupled with its strange runes, it is estimated that it will be more troublesome than you can imagine.

"Hopefully, there won't be that much flexibility!"

Lin Li thought to himself, then without further hesitation, he put the 20mm hand cannon back into his personal space.

The next second, several disc-shaped bombs appeared in his hand.

This is a specially designed drop bomb filled with CL-20 high explosive, specifically designed to deal with heavily armored targets, and its destructive power far exceeds that of anti-tank mines.

His gaze was fixed on the mechanical giant that was striding toward them.

Just then, the steel giant's blood-red single eye gradually brightened, and a deep humming sound emanated from its chest, transforming into a muffled and majestic voice.

"The one who disturbed the slumber of the great Lagrange—hmm, the armory is sealed off; it seems this is my sacrifice!"

"Yes, esteemed divine machine manipulator, they will satisfy your bloodlust!" A loudspeaker blared from the darkness; it was the chilling voice of the dwarf elder who had been guarding the door.

"Hmph, it's a bit little, but consider this a reward for stretching my muscles! After the war, I'll demand ten thousand more sacrifices!"

"Rest assured, Your Majesty the Great Lagrange!"

During the conversation, the nearly fifteen-meter-tall behemoth began to stride forward once more.

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

Every step sent tremors through the entire underground warehouse; the seemingly clumsy steel structure moved with absurd speed.

In just a dozen or so steps, they traversed hundreds of meters and arrived in front of the dwarf group.

Immediately afterwards, the octopus-like retractable mechanical arm on its shoulder suddenly popped out, so fast that it left only a blur!

"what!"

The three terrified dwarves were caught off guard and grabbed in mid-air, then violently dragged back.

"Crack!"

A sickening sound of bones cracking rang out.

With just a slight exertion of the mechanical giant claw, the three struggling dwarves instantly fell silent, their bodies crushed by the force of the claw!

Strangely, the blood and flesh that filled the air did not scatter and fly everywhere. Instead, they were enveloped by an invisible red energy, turning into three streams of blood and flesh that poured into the recessed area of ​​the giant mechanical head.

Above the previously empty head, a strange, blood-red flame suddenly ignited, adding to the evil aura of this killing machine.

"Fire! Fire now, kill this monster!"

"That's a divine machine, it can't be destroyed!"

"Damn elders! They betrayed us!"

"Uncle, let me out!"

"Run! Run!"

boom!

An enraged dwarf raised his torch and fired a shot at the giant.

However, the lead bullet, powerful enough to shatter rocks, suddenly lit up the runes on the giant's body the moment it approached, and a visible energy shield flashed by.

The lead bullet seemed to have hit an invisible wall, instantly deforming and losing speed, before falling helplessly to the ground with a clatter.

Despair spread among the dwarfs.

The octopus-shaped mechanical claws extended again, locking onto several panicked dwarves once more.

Just as the giant claw was about to close and another bloody scene was about to unfold, several dark figures, accompanied by sharp whooshing sounds, came whistling from behind the crowd, heading straight for the steel giant's face!

It was Lin Li who dropped the CL-20 bomb!

The steel giant seemed to sense the threat; its blood-red single eye flashed, and an energy shield on its body instantly solidified.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of violent explosions erupted on the shield, flames shot into the sky, and a violent shockwave swept in all directions!

Although it failed to penetrate the energy shield directly, the terrifying kinetic energy contained in the bomb still caused the massive steel giant to pause for a moment, and the entire warehouse fell silent for a second.

All the dwarves were stunned, staring incredulously at the steel giant.

The next moment, the steel giant slowly lowered its head, its blood-red single eye ignoring the other dwarves, and instead pierced through the chaotic crowd, locking onto the direction of the explosion.

They locked onto the incarnation of the dwarves who seemed out of place from the very beginning.

The deep voice rang out again, carrying a hint of coldness after being provoked and — a playful tone.

"You are very interesting."

"Dwarves, ha ha, it's just quite amusing! You—you have some nerve! How dare you refuse to be the flesh and blood energy nourishment of the great Lagrange!"

"Struggle! The more you struggle, the more excited I will become!"

"Listen to the desperate cries of all things, revel in the pleasure of slaughter, I am the great Lagrange!"

"Ha ha ha ha----"

A rumbling sound emanated from this enormous machine, which was over ten meters tall.

The long loneliness, or perhaps being sealed away for too long, has caused this enormous steel creation to speak madly, as talkative as a resentful woman who hasn't spoken to anyone for centuries.

However, what awaited him was not fear and trembling, but a barrage of attacks from a forest of 40mm armor-piercing grenades held in both hands.

The recoil of a 40mm caliber weapon is something that ordinary people cannot withstand.

If an ordinary person did this, their shoulder would have broken and they would be dead. But Lin Li's physical body is too strong. The slight recoil from holding the gun with both hands is just that it might make it difficult for him to aim accurately!

Bang bang—bang—

Multiple shells were fired in succession, sweeping directly towards the head of the dwarven god's machine.

This 40mm caliber caseless armor-piercing projectile is derived from the previous kill sniper grenade and is the latest product developed by the Weapon Research Institute.

Considering the abundance of monsters and demons in the other world, and the fact that the pioneering warriors have already begun equipping themselves with exoskeletons, the more powerful and lethal 40mm caseless armor-piercing rounds have become a possible option for the soldiers.

Cased-barrel armor-piercing rounds have been around for a long time, but for various reasons, they have not been distributed to infantry for use.

The weapons Lin Li is currently using are the newly equipped gear for the pioneering team.

Cased projectiles, also known as embedded ammunition or sleeve-type ammunition, are characterized by having the projectile encased in a propellant cartridge.

Smaller caliber caseless ammunition can unleash greater attack and destructive power; for example, a 25mm shell can achieve the same effect as a 45mm autocannon.

40毫米的埋头弹与同口径常规弹药相比体积小30%，重量也减轻30%，性能提高30%。后坐力仅为老鹰的25毫米M242链式自动炮的2/3。採用了複合材料药筒后，大大降低了使用成本，并且不易受损。发射的尾翼脱壳穿甲弹可以轻鬆穿透150毫米厚的轧制均质装甲！

The 40mm size is comparable to that of a 25mm automatic cannon, and it can be used to retrofit most of the 25-30mm cannons on existing infantry fighting vehicles, reducing the total life-cycle cost by about half.

However, these devices all use heavy machine gun tripods and require human soldiers to use them with exoskeletons.

These slight recoil and side effects are tolerable for Lin Li.

Amidst the roar of gunpowder exploding, two weapons, a total of ten 40mm caseless bullets, were launched in less than a second.

They tore through the air with a deafening roar, transforming into streaks of death that hurtled towards the fragile head joints of the massive mechanical construct.

Clang!

A series of rapid metallic clanging sounds rang out, crisp and somewhat jarring.

The scene Lin Li had envisioned—destroying the opponent's steel skull and causing it to explode internally—did not occur.

Ten special armor-piercing rounds, capable of penetrating 150mm of homogeneous armor, seemed to collide with an almost invisible energy shield the moment they made contact with the shield.

The warhead was forcibly slowed down and squeezed by a tremendous force, its sharp head twisted and deformed, and finally turned into piles of scrap metal, falling helplessly from mid-air.

Aside from causing a few insignificant ripples on the surface of the emerging shield, it accomplished nothing else.

"Oh? An interesting little bug." A rumbling sound came from the speakers inside the mechanical titan, carrying a hint of languor and mockery from just waking up. "Is that all the kinetic energy your weapon releases? Heh heh, trying to tickle me?"

Lin Li did not reply, but silently took out two spare sniper grenades loaded with bullets from his personal space.

Several more 40mm shells whistled through the air, but the result was the same.

"It's no use, give up."

"The divine machines controlled by the great Lagrange are powered by a magic matrix and a solar furnace. Even after sleeping for countless years and with a power reduction of thirty-five percent, they are still not something that your little firecracker's kinetic energy can shake."

"The great Lagrange tells you, if you want to penetrate it with a weapon of this caliber, you'll have to wait another hundred years! Ha ha ha!" Amidst its maniacal laughter, its movements showed no sign of slowing down.

The retractable mechanical arm, resembling an octopus tentacle, shot out again, breaking the speed of sound and leaving only a blur.

"what!"

"Help!"

Several dwarves were captured, and screams of agony filled the air.

Unable to dodge in time, the dwarves were instantly crushed into a blurry mass of flesh and blood by the giant metal claws amidst their mournful howls.

A nauseating stench of blood filled the air, but instead of splattering, the flesh and blood were drawn by a strange red energy, transforming into streaks of blood that merged into the head of the Titan machine.

The gem, which had originally only glowed red, became increasingly intense and eerie after absorbing a large amount of blood and flesh energy, resembling a pulsating, wicked monster.

As dwarves were sacrificed one by one, the Titan's movements became visibly smoother and faster.

It tried to capture Linli, who was constantly moving around the field, but Linli's speed and agility far exceeded those of ordinary dwarves, and it always managed to narrowly avoid a fatal capture.

The newly revived Titan was not angry. Instead, he played like a cat playing with a mouse, continuing to prey on the other weaker dwarves while observing Lin Li's movements with great interest.

In this closed sacrificial chamber, it did not believe that any prey could escape from its grasp.

"Um?"

Suddenly, the Titan stopped its slaughter, its massive head turning slightly as if scanning something.

"Interesting, very interesting little fellow." The voice from the speaker carried a hint of genuine approval. "You managed to set up so many explosives as surprises right under my nose. You've got a good head on your sleeve!"

Lin Li remained silent, simply continuing to plant the bombs!

"Very well! As a reward for the pleasure you've brought me, the great Lagrange has decided to personally bestow upon you—the glory of destruction!"

"Witness what the power of a god truly is!"

Before the words were finished, the runes all over the huge Titan machine suddenly shone brightly, and the energy flow was clearly visible on its steel body, eventually converging on its thick leg joints.

Amidst a piercing, humming energy, one of its massive metal feet slowly rose, blocking out the light source above and casting a huge, mountain-like shadow on the ground.

The next second, it slammed down on the ground with tremendous force!

"Feel despair!"

boom-!!!

The terrifying roar nearly ripped eardrums apart, and the entire underground space shook violently, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.

Where the giant metal foot landed, the hard steel ground was actually crushed into a dent, and countless hideous cracks spread outwards like a spider web.

As it stomped, the violent energy surged outwards indiscriminately, and the shockwave spread out in a ring, carrying away all the dwarven corpses and weapon fragments along the way!

"Die, you insect!"

Lagrange's arrogant voice echoed, and at the same time, several octopus-like mechanical tentacles tore through the air, leaving afterimages and sealing off all possible directions from which Lin Li could dodge, determined to strangle him on the spot.

Unfortunately, it was all in vain.

Just before the tentacles were about to close, a flash of eerie blue light disappeared, and Lin Li's figure vanished without a trace.

"what?"

Lagrange let out a surprised exclamation.

The next second, it no longer had time to search for Lin Li's traces.

Boom! Rumble—

A series of deafening explosions suddenly rang out in the closed sacrificial chamber!

The bomb traps that Lin Li had set up earlier were all detonated at this moment.

One after another, powerful explosives, each equivalent to 750 kilograms of TNT, detonated around the Titan machine.

Faced with such close-range saturation bombardment, the steel body, more than ten meters tall, had to divert its energy, and the crescent-shaped shield immediately turned into an elliptical shield.

Under the shockwave of the explosion, the energy shield's light flickered violently, and the ripples on its surface were no longer insignificant, but rather like the surface of a lake in a storm, stirring up towering waves.

It took more than ten seconds for the aftershocks and smoke from the explosion to gradually dissipate.

The intense heat from the previous fire engulfed everything, the terrifying temperature distorted the air, and the violent shockwaves slammed into the massive underground armory.

Surprisingly, this underground fortress, painstakingly built by the dwarves, only trembled violently under such a dense barrage of explosions, with dust falling from the walls, but no structural damage occurred.

The Titan machine reappeared, its probes scanning every inch of space frantically, but it could no longer find any trace of the despicable dwarf sacrifice.

"asshole!"

The voice coming from the speaker no longer had the previous languor and mockery, but only the fury of someone who had been tricked.

"Damn rat! Hiding in your magical spatial equipment, you think I can't do anything to you?"

"You're so desperately trying to stop me, you must be our companions from outside, right?"

"Hehe————"

"Open the door! You damned dwarven creature outside, open the door for me! The great Lagrange is going out to make those who dare attack me feel what true bloodshed is!"

It roared as it frantically pounded on the closed metal door with its massive mechanical arm, creating a deafening roar, but it couldn't budge it an inch.

"Under the Lagrange Crown, has the enemy been defeated?"

"Open the door first!"

The door didn't open; instead, a familiar blue light shone again not far behind it.

Lin Li's figure appeared out of thin air, and his face showed astonishment when he saw the lively Titan machine.

Afterwards, he exchanged a few words with Laplace's demon and, after confirming, silently took out a creation from his personal space that was about the thickness of a thigh, dark silver in color, and full of a certain industrial aesthetic.

"Lagrange, huh? You share the same name as someone on Earth? Heh heh—didn't you complain about the low kinetic energy just now?" Lin Li's voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached Titan's receiver. "I found you a bigger one."

He gently placed the metal cylinder on the ground and set a short two-second countdown.

"Clang, clang—enjoy the truth!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Li's figure was once again enveloped in blue light and disappeared without a trace.

More than a hundred meters away, inside the Titan machine, Lagrange's scarlet single eye stared intently at the inconspicuous metal cylinder.

The next moment, its entire alarm system emitted an extremely piercing shriek!

The readings on the energy detector instantly spiked, and the pointer frantically pointed towards the red zone that represented destruction.

A terrifying fission wave originating from the deepest level of matter, about to break free of its constraints, was clearly captured by its sensors.

"This is—no! Damn it!!!"

For the first time, the electronically synthesized voice of the Lagrange expressed genuine fear and trembling.

It wanted to escape, but this was an enclosed space.

To ensure its own survival, it quickly used all its energy to strengthen its fully protective energy shield.

Time seemed to slow down infinitely at this moment.

The pioneer team's latest generation of individual tactical nuclear bombs detonated the core fission material in a fraction of a second after a silent flash.

There was no earth-shattering roar, nor any dazzling flames.

The whole world was instantly reduced to only one color.

White.

Ultimate, all-consuming, pure white.

A miniature sun rose abruptly from within this underground temple, which had been sealed for countless years.

Plasma, reaching temperatures of hundreds of millions of degrees Celsius, expanded outward at the speed of light, brutally tearing apart, melting, and evaporating everything in its path. Above the ground, the battle at Pangula Fortress continued fiercely.

The human pioneers' offensive was like a precise scalpel, steadily and methodically peeling away the layers of the underground transportation network that the dwarves had spent countless years building, according to a predetermined rhythm.

Napalm bombs, thermobaric bombs, special bunker buster bombs—anything that can pry open a dwarf tortoise's shell is available.

The dwarves' prized tunnel warfare tactics, while showing some resistance against the relentless attacks of the super bunker-buster bombs, ultimately proved too much to overcome due to the overwhelming disparity in firepower.

It's only a matter of time before it's destroyed.

The only thing that could cause injury or death to humans was the dwarves' heavy canned food.

However, after consuming the powerful melee destructive capabilities of the dwarven heavy armor canned food, the frontline command has adjusted its combat and emergency response plans.

Various large, individual combat vehicles, along with even more robust machine guns, were sent to the front lines to various locations where enemies might appear.

The special forces under Zhao's command had just emptied a belt of ammunition with heavy machine guns, completely suppressing a cave firing point. Then, with the help of FPV drones, they went in to finish off the dwarf defenders inside, cleanly and efficiently eliminating them.

As the dwarf's life signs gradually disappeared, Zhao thought about the ammunition belt and how to attack other places later, until the ground beneath his feet trembled violently!

"Um?"

This feeling—isn't right.

The shock came suddenly and violently, far exceeding any previous heavy bombardment by our side.

"earthquake!"

Some veterans who had served in earthquake zones turned pale, their muscles tensed instinctively, and they almost instinctively sought cover.

The commotion reminded them of the devastating earthquake that struck more than a decade ago.

"What's going on? Is it an earthquake?" The communication channel was filled with noise.

"It doesn't look like an earthquake; it looks like there was an explosion somewhere!"

Zhao steadied himself, grabbed a boulder in front of the position for cover, and looked into the distance with suspicion and uncertainty.

Three kilometers away, in an inconspicuous mountain hollow, a thick column of smoke, black mixed with gray and white, like an angry dragon, suddenly spewed out from the cave entrances of several dwarf fortresses!

The column of smoke shot straight into the sky, obscuring half of it.

Immediately afterwards, a mountain peak below the column of smoke seemed to have been kicked hard from the inside. The mountain shook violently, and countless fragments of rock mixed with dust sprayed out in all directions like a shower of flowers!

"Boom—"

The belated thud pierced the battlefield's clamor, striking everyone's chest with a dull thud, making their eardrums buzz.

The scene was so breathtaking that both sides in the battle paused for a moment.

Countless eyes, both human and dwarf, were fixed on that place of change.

"What's going on? Is that a bunker buster bomb from some food court?" A young soldier's voice trembled in the channel. "Our bunker buster bombs aren't that powerful, are they?"

"This commotion... could it be that they wiped out some big guy's armory under the dwarves?" Zhao clicked his tongue, feeling a chill run down his spine as he looked at the scene before him, which resembled a volcanic eruption.

"Who cares? It's definitely a good thing!"

"Hahaha, explode! Explode louder!"

After a brief moment of astonishment, cheers erupted from the human positions.

The detection instruments in Zhao's position suddenly emitted a sharp alarm, and the radiation index on the screen began to fluctuate abnormally.

He frowned, glanced at the data, and then looked up at the distant mountain that was still spewing smoke and dust, a strange premonition rising in his heart.

This commotion doesn't seem to be as simple as a regular explosion.

"Stop looking!" Zhao growled into the communicator, forcefully drawing everyone's attention back. "Who cares if the sky is falling or the earth is collapsing over there? Our mission remains the same! Keep clearing out the dwarves in front of us! Hurry up! We can't let the Butcher and his crew overtake us!"

"yes!"

The soldiers responded with a deafening roar, and the firepower intensified once again.

Meanwhile, outside the No. 2 armory.

The truth, ignited by Lin Li himself, has completely changed everything in the arsenal.

The extreme heat and shockwave blasted the ground into a soft state, while the deadly heat completely burned the ground into glass.

Although the several hundred meters of soil did not completely block the radiation, it minimized the radiation damage from a single hydrogen bomb.

A faint blue light flashed, and Lin Li's figure reappeared in the ravaged forest.

As soon as he appeared on the ground, he was so shocked by the sight before him that he gasped in astonishment.

"Laplace's demon, that guy should be gone, right?" Lin Li asked in his mind as he cautiously looked around.

Meow~

"Damn it, you're such a greedy bastard! Here, take 0.1 units of spacetime essence!"

"Meow~ Target's vital signs have disappeared, and the energy core reaction has been completely extinguished."

"The wreckage is located 130 meters in front of you at a depth of 300 meters. It has been melted by high temperature and solidified with the surface."

"Looks like I can message them now!"

A few kilometers away, the frontline command post.

The floor inside the command post trembled violently, and the military teacup on the table jumped up, spilling half a cup of scalding hot tea.

"What happened?"

"Report! A violent earthquake has been detected seven kilometers underground, suspected to be a secondary explosion at an ammunition depot—" A young technical staff officer stared intently at the screen, his voice suddenly rising, "No! The radiation levels are off the charts! It's a nuclear reaction from the explosion!"

"A nuclear explosion?" The operations room fell silent instantly, and everyone stopped what they were doing.

"No way?"

"A nuclear bomb detonated underground?" a staff officer muttered to himself. "Who did it? We have no launch record."

"A dwarf nuclear bomb?"

Bi Shengli shifted his gaze from the tactical sand table to the area flashing red alerts, his fingers tapping lightly on the table, producing a steady and rhythmic "tap-tap" sound.

"Don't worry, everyone, it's not him, it's that mysterious person!"

Before he could finish speaking, the communications officer suddenly stood up, his voice filled with barely suppressed excitement.

"Commander! We've received a message from the encrypted terminal; it's from that mysterious person!"

"It seems he has indeed achieved his goal!" Bi Shengli's spirits lifted. "Read it!"

"Report: Dwarven Armory No. 2 has been cleared; the target, the Titan, also known as the 'God's Machine,' has been destroyed. The enemy has also sent a combat video."

The video was immediately projected onto the main electronic screen.

The footage was short and even a bit shaky, but the content made everyone in the command center gasp.

In the dimly lit underground space, a steel structure over ten meters tall simply waved its arm, and the dwarf was seized—

Everyone present frowned when they saw the dwarves using strange energy to absorb flesh and blood.

"Their weapons are really something else!"

A technician zoomed in on a frame, staring at the dense array of weapon ports on the machine. His Adam's apple bobbed. "That opening... looks like an energy weapon, right? Wow—the dwarves have this kind of technology?"

"If this thing were to reach our lines, how many lives would we have to pay for it?"

"Thank goodness," Bi Shengli said, watching the video, a cold sweat breaking out on his back. "The mysterious person had already beaten it to the punch and killed it in its den."

Although this thing seems very unreasonable in the modern military field, when the enemy is equipped with shields, runs like the wind, and is equipped with high-powered weapons, it is simply a reaper on the battlefield.

The destruction of the dwarven machinery means that countless pioneering warriors no longer need to desperately test the weaknesses of these large dwarven machines!

Before everyone could recover from the relief of surviving the ordeal, the communications officer's voice rang out again, this time with a slight tremor.

"Commander! The mysterious figure has sent another message! It's even more accurate information from Armory Three! They've succeeded!"

"Did they take down Armory Number Three?" someone exclaimed.

"No, no!" the communications officer reported rapidly. "The mysterious man said he rescued several thousand prisoners from the dwarven mithril clan near Armory Number Two! He hopes we can provide assistance and rescue them; they are key to dealing with the dwarves, especially the corrupt mithril clan!"

"He also sent a detailed map—the one leading to Armory Three and the area where the prisoners were trapped!"

When the map unfolded on the main screen, the entire command center fell silent.

The map's level of detail was outrageous.

Every tunnel, every firing point, and even the routes of ventilation ducts and drainage systems were clearly marked.

This is the detailed map that Lin Li obtained with the help of Laplace's Demon.

It's not cheap, but it can reduce the damage to the soldiers.

"Wow, that's impressive!" one of the staff officers exclaimed.

Bi Shengli's eyes were frighteningly bright, and he slammed his hand on the table.

"Arsenal No. 3 is in Area F, specifically F2. How much time do we have left to clear it?"

"Report: According to the contingency plan, cleaning area F2 will take another two hours."

"The daylily will be cold in two hours!" Bi Shengli's voice was firm and resolute. "I don't care what methods you use, one hour!"

I'm only giving you one hour! You must clear out the thorns from within the dwarves. Retrieve those precious insights completely!

"Also, add fuel to the fire for the F2 area offensive! Order the reserves to send out the suicide robot wolves, mechanical dogs, and small unmanned wheeled vehicles to wipe them out."

He stared intently at the red dot on the map marking the prisoners, and spoke slowly and deliberately.

"Those witnesses were key to us eradicating the entire dwarven kingdom—well, correcting their greed!"

"yes!"

The entire command center instantly transformed into a high-speed war machine, with countless orders flying towards the front lines like snowflakes.
