Doomsday Sequence Caravan: I Have a Mechanical Heart

The blue cannonball was extremely fast, and in less than a second, it hit the head of the giant python more than 200 meters away.

Thud---

A dull, loud bang erupted.

A meter-sized hole was instantly blasted into the giant python's head, and half of its face disappeared. Its body was also thrown back several meters. But it didn't die; it let out an extremely sharp roar and then charged towards Su Mu recklessly.

The attack had genuinely startled Cheng Jun, who couldn't help but curse, "What the hell was that?!"

As he spoke, he glanced in the direction from which the shells had come, and seeing that it was Su Mu and his group, he couldn't help but curse, "Su Mu, you bad guy, you just wait."

Yu Yao was also startled and quickly turned to look. Seeing that it was Su Mu who had made the move, her face showed displeasure. "It really is you!"

As he spoke, he quickly rushed towards the top of the hill.

When the giant python that Su Mu had wounded reached the mountainside, Su Mu raised his arm again and fired another shot at the python's head.

His energy level has now reached 29,000, so the two shots didn't have much of an impact.

A buzzing sound came from the particle energy cannon.

Another blue cannonball flew out at high speed, hitting the previous wound squarely.

boom---

Then came another muffled thud, and blood splattered everywhere. This time, the explosion directly destroyed the giant python's skull. It didn't even have time to let out a scream before it crashed to the ground and died completely.

Yu Yao was truly stunned by what he saw. He even forgot to continue his tirade against Su Mu as he climbed the mountain.

Two shots were enough to kill her and Cheng Jun, who were both helpless against the giant python. If that had landed on her, she would have been dead.

Moreover, she felt that if she really angered Su Mu, he might actually slap her!

On the top of the mountain

Su Mu put away the particle energy cannon and looked at Ling Hao, "That one is yours."

"I need to rest."

"Okay." Ling Hao finally came to his senses, agreed, and rushed down the mountain. He hadn't run far when he suddenly remembered something, turned back to look at Su Mu, and said, "There should be a demon core inside that giant python's head."

"It functions the same as domain fragments."

"Really?" Su Mu's eyes lit up, and he turned to Yao Zhe. "Go and get it."

"Okay, Brother Mu." Yao Zhe replied and then rushed towards the giant python's corpse on the mountainside.

An Xin looked at Cheng Jun, who was still fighting down the mountain, and said, "I'll go help too."

"Go ahead," Su Mu nodded. "Be careful."

He also saw that Cheng Jun's attacks didn't seem to pose much of a threat to the giant python. Although Ling Hao's attack power was stronger than Cheng Jun's, it probably wasn't by much.

So we'll have to see how An Xin handles things.

An Xin responded, her gaze instantly turning cold. A broadsword appeared in her hand, and then her wings unfurled, propelling her down the mountain at an incredible speed.

Seeing that Ling Hao and An Xin had come down, Yu Yao had no intention of going up the mountain anymore. She returned to the foot of the mountain and joined Cheng Jun in dealing with the giant python.

One minute later

Yao Zhe handed a fist-sized golden crystal to Su Mu, "Brother Mu, this should be the demon core that Captain Ling mentioned."

"Yes." Su Mu nodded, took it and looked at it, and found that the energy inside was extremely abundant, comparable to eight or nine domain fragments.

He was immediately filled with excitement and exclaimed repeatedly, "Not bad, not bad, I didn't expect such an unexpected gain."

"In this way, my energy level will be able to break through 30,000, and it will be much easier to refine Blue Star Gold in the future."

He didn't rush to absorb the item; instead, he put it in his pocket. Turning to Yao Zhe, he said, "Work hard, and wait until your strength improves further."

"I'll find you a domain fragment to help you advance to the Profound Rank."

"Yes, Brother Mu, I will definitely live up to your expectations," Yao Zhe said excitedly upon hearing this.

Just then, Song Weiwei arrived. She looked down the mountain and asked, "How's the situation?"

"We've already killed one." Su Mu was somewhat surprised that she came. "There's still one left."

"Then I'll go help," Song Weiwei said after some thought.

"You can attack from a distance?" Su Mu asked, looking at her.

"Okay," Song Weiwei said, reaching out and grabbing a red flaming longbow in her hand. "It's just not that powerful."

"If your aim is good," Su Mu said, realizing that Ling Hao and his companions' sequence artifacts could freely transform into weapons.

"We could try attacking the python's eyes."

"Okay." Song Weiwei agreed and rushed down the mountain.

With An Xin and the others joining in, the giant python that was fighting Cheng Jun was quickly killed.

Cheng Jun plopped down on the ground, panting heavily. "I'm exhausted. I never expected this sequence behemoth to be so difficult to kill."

At this point, she quickly turned her head to look, "Where's Su Mu? I just saw him."

"Where has he gone?"

"Here I am," Su Mu said with a smile as he led Yao Zhe out of the woods. "What do you want?"

"Next time you fire," Cheng Jun said, looking at him with dissatisfaction, "could you give me a heads-up beforehand?"

"You almost scared me to death."

"Definitely, definitely." Su Mu laughed heartily, "Mainly because the situation was urgent at the time, and there wasn't time to remind them."

"Alright, I forgive you this time." Cheng Jun stood up from the ground. "But you have to make me a Gatling gun as compensation."

"Okay," Su Mu agreed. He then looked at An Xin, who was still in combat mode and maintained her aloof demeanor. Seeing this, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

An Xin noticed his gaze and walked towards him. Her cold gaze made Su Mu feel a little intimidated.

But after An Xin came to his side, she just stood there quietly, still without saying a word.

"You weren't tired just now, were you?" Su Mu asked after a moment's hesitation.

"No." An Xin shook her head and uttered a single word.

Hearing her reply, Su Mu realized something. An Xin, with her fighting spirit, didn't reject him; she was just intimidatingly aloof. This reassured him somewhat.

But she also worried that An Xin, with her adorable personality, might remain asleep forever.

If he had to face An Xin like this every day, he would be depressed to death.

At this moment, Ling Hao took out the demon core from the giant python's head and presented it to Su Mu, saying, "Here's the reward I promised you."

"Okay." Su Mu chuckled and took it. With this one, the energy value of his Mechanical Heart would break through 40,000, bringing him closer to 100,000.

"Captain, there's an orchard over there." Yu Yao stood next to Ling Hao and pointed to the woods to the east.

"Really?" Ling Hao was somewhat surprised. "That explains why you guys ended up here."

"Let's go take a look."

"If there are enough, I'll go and call someone to pick them." Song Weiwei was also quite surprised and followed closely beside Ling Hao, walking towards the orchard.
