Tower Defense: Public Enemy

Chapter 548 Mechanical God Nordwa

According to the system's assessment, Lei Chi is still only a high-ranking god.

Because he had not yet cultivated his "Great Mighty Divine Skill" to the fourth level of perfection.

Even with immense combat power, one cannot become a supreme god under the system's control if they fail to meet the system's criteria.

Conversely, if the conditions recognized by the system are met, then even if someone is a complete weakling, they are still a god.

In the main world of the divine realm, most of the main gods follow the path of becoming gods through faith. The most important condition for becoming a main god is to ignite the divine fire of faith within one's body. No matter what method is used, whether it is accumulating the faith of all living beings and then unleashing it, or taking shortcuts and getting help from others, as long as the divine fire of faith is present within one's body, one is a main god.

However, generally speaking, igniting the flame of faith within one's body is not an easy task, so players who become gods are generally not weaklings and often possess strong combat power.

The Mechanical God Nordwa was a player in the 10th Era. He joined the Temple of Technology in the 10th Era and served as a Quantum Vanguard. Later, during the War of Faith Gods, he was arranged by "Infinity" to enter the Temple of Technology and became a spy.

As the Tenth Opportunity Faith War was drawing to a close, Nordwa had become the High Priest of the Cult of Machine Gods. He then lay dormant for 40,000 years, igniting the flame of faith at the beginning of the Eleventh Era, becoming the Chief God of Machine Gods, and leading the war in the Faith War of the same era, waging war against many forces such as the Silver Heaven.

The collapse of the Silver Paradise and many other forces, and even the slumber of Turkest in the previous era, are all connected to this mechanical temple.

His growth was smooth sailing, and his strength was not weak. He was always one of the best players. After becoming the God of the Void, he also made breakthroughs in cultivation, and his combat power was not bad either.

The mechanical god Nordwa has always been proud, having already reached a level comparable to those ancient gods. He is also quite ambitious, eager to wage war and grow stronger, and has already planned the twelfth Opportunity Faith God War.

Sensing the resentment of Qiukas before his death, he immediately decided to plunder Qiukas's divine essence and the Emerald Heart, which enabled the Mechanical Temple to forcibly break through the other dimension and set up the alchemical array.

However, to his surprise, the alchemical array failed to work. Not only was the Emerald Heart stolen, but he also failed to preserve even a single fragment of Qiukas's divine essence.

This made Nordow feel that his mission had gone wrong, so he had already set Elysium, which had stolen the Emerald Heart and the fragments of the godhood of Tuukas, as his first target for annihilation.

Nordow did not underestimate Elysium, especially after learning that the Great Demon King had fallen there. He took it even more seriously, so after consolidating his forces, he not only mobilized the entire army but also secretly cooperated with the Cult of Technology, which led to this invasion war.

In mid-air, beneath the star map, the pioneering quantum computer quickly informed Lei Chi of Nordhua's information.

"Ding! Nordhua is the Mechanical God, his life essence and the divine fire of faith are fused together. The body before you is merely a puppet of his. To kill Nordhua, you must extinguish his divine fire of faith. Do you need to formulate a targeted battle plan?"

"No need. Compared to that, I'm more curious about that being with a combat power exceeding 600 million! Activate the quantum computer and use my divine sense to continue scanning, collecting more information, to determine whether that being with a combat power exceeding 600 million is indeed the 152 Heavenly Venerable, to understand his state, and to verify whether the 152 Heavenly Venerable is related to the Mechanical God."

Lei Chi silently communicated with the Kaituo light brain. Their communication speed was extremely fast; a lot of information could be transmitted in the blink of an eye.

"Yes, sir! Please buy me some time. I will first attempt a physical deduction. If that fails, I will then send information in the opposite direction to verify the result. The entire process is expected to take half an hour!"

"Can!"

"Activate the optical computer, begin work..."

At this moment, a countdown hourglass appeared above the Opening Up Light Brain in Lei Chi's sea of ​​consciousness. The movement of the hourglass indicated that the Opening Up Light Brain was working. During this process, Lei Chi's mental energy flowed rapidly to the Opening Up Light Brain for its use.

At that moment, the mechanical god Nordhua, upon hearing Lei Chi address him as "minor god," was filled with rage. He glared at Lei Chi and roared, "What did you say?"

Lei Chi knew that what stood before him was merely a puppet that the Mechanical God Lord Nordhua could discard at any time. While he didn't underestimate it, he wasn't particularly concerned either, and casually remarked, "I'm saying you're a minor god with a combat power of only 60,000!"

"I am the Mechanical God!" Nordhua roared. "You, a mere Lord of Bliss City, what are you to dare to be so insolent before me?"

As he spoke, the mechanical god raised his hand and pointed at the Thunder Pool. Immediately, a thunderous sound came from the mechanical temple, and then eighteen streams of light flew out of the temple. In less than a breath, they dispersed around the Thunder Pool and transformed into eight tall and magnificent mechs, surrounding the Thunder Pool.

"Huh? They really have some skills."

Lei Chi looked around at the machinery with curiosity.

These mechs seem to have been made from the same mold, they are exactly the same, they are called "Sky-Patrolling Mech Gods", they even have a level, all of them are 900, and their durability is a staggering 900 million.

Lei Chi guessed that these Sky-Patrolling Machine Gods were similar to Lei Chi God General, and he didn't take them seriously at all.

The next moment, eight Sky-Patrolling Machine Gods attacked Lei Chi simultaneously. Lei Chi stood still, his invisible thoughts forming a [Mindless Cycle] around his body. With just this layer of protection, Lei Chi estimated that the eight Sky-Patrolling Machine Gods might not be able to break through.

However, Lei Chi was not willing to stand and take the beating. He snorted and, with a thought, a tiger's roar suddenly came from his body. The roar was extremely loud, like thunder and lightning, shaking people's minds.

The eight sky-surveillance aircraft seemed to have been impacted, and their movements immediately slowed down.

"town!"

Lei Chi uttered another word, and one after another, colorful [Great Mighty Tigers] leaped out from behind him. The [Great Mighty Tigers] shook their bodies and quickly grew to seven or eight meters in length before pouncing on the eight Sky Patrol Machine Gods.

The battle was extremely swift. The Sky-Patrolling Machine Gods may have been equipped with powerful weapons, but they didn't even have a chance to use them. One by one, they were pinned down by the Great Tiger and couldn't move at all. They formed a neat circle, their formation orderly.

"That's all there is to it!"

Lei Chi shook his head and used the Iron Kun Devouring Technique again. He opened his mouth and sucked in all the [Great Mighty Tigers] and the Sky-Patrolling Mechs they suppressed, then released them into his inner universe.

Later, when Lei Chi has the time, he can leisurely decide whether to refine them into Primordial Dust Qi or use them for other purposes.

"Um?"

Nordow's expression hardened.

The Sky-Patrol Mech was eaten by the enemy?

Is that a monster on the other side?

Or is he also a supreme god?

"Who are you? Tell me your name!"

Nordow asked loudly.

Lei Chi declared, "I am the supreme divinity, the unifier!"

"A large bucket?"

"Not bad, a unified empire!" Lei Chi smiled knowingly. "You are the first person to hear my name; you should feel honored."

"Then you'll have to use some force! I'm not bragging, but even if I stand still and let you hit me, you won't be able to hurt a single hair on my head."

"Yeah?"

Nordow's tone turned somber.

Under his mental control, a golden light burst forth from the mechanical temple.

The golden light, like a spear, sharp at the front and thick at the back, pierced Lei Chi's chest with a clang, but shattered on its own like glass.

-0!

Damage values ​​appeared above Lei Chi's head.

In fact, he still had a health bar at this time, and the system gave him 900 billion health points, but three question marks were added after 900 billion.

Lei Chi's health bar is so low that ordinary attacks can't even scratch it.

Because Lei Chi had already cultivated the Great Jade Divine Body and the Starry Sky Divine Body, even just the effects of the Great Jade Divine Body meant that any external attack would either instantly kill him with a burst damage of 900 billion or more, or its attack power would be zero.

Lei Chi absolutely does not tolerate injury!

Now, Lei Chi has created a world within his body, giving birth to a universe. However, his true vitality cannot be represented by those 900 billion life points, so even the system has raised three questions.

To some extent, the "thunder pool" has exceeded the system's comprehension.

"Little god of the Mechanical Temple, I'm not dead yet! What other tricks do you have up your sleeve?"

Lei Chi said calmly. At this moment, he was actually observing the technological temple seriously, trying to find clues about "Tian Zun Yi Wu Er". Meanwhile, the AI ​​was constantly collecting information and calculating.

"You, what kind of monster are you?"

At this moment, even the mechanical god Nordwa was somewhat shocked.

He didn't expect that this attack would also be ineffective. That was an attack from the "Destruction Spear" in the Mechanical Temple, which carried a strong annihilation power and could even annihilate the power of faith. Even a god would not be able to withstand such an attack.

Lei Chi, wanting to buy time, said, "I am not a monster, I am the supreme divinity, the Great Unity, which has only just been born!"

"Supreme divinity, what 'giant barrel'? I've never heard of such things! If you're so capable, then stand still and endure another attack!"

"Come!"

Nordow slapped his chest, and his body rapidly transformed. With a series of clicks, various parts rotated and reassembled, and after three breaths, he had transformed into a cannon.

The cannon slowly aimed its muzzle at Lei Chi.

The next moment, blue light began to accumulate in the muzzle of the cannon, and the blue light grew brighter and brighter, as if it were being continuously compressed.

About a minute later, a bright, almost solid blue beam of light finally shot out from the cannon's muzzle.

Two loud booms followed.

The first sound was from the beam of light striking Lei Chi, causing an explosion that quickly enveloped Lei Chi's figure with a large amount of blue light fragments.

The second sound was the explosion of the cannon that Nordwa had transformed into.

The cannon barrel exploded, sending fragments flying far away, and the cannon itself was shaken and tilted to one side.

Click, click, click...

The cannon quickly transformed back into Nordwa, its right arm missing and its left leg severely deformed. However, its eyes gleamed as it stared intently at the location of the Thunder Pool.

The faint blue light gradually disappeared.

Lei Chi reappeared, sneezed, rubbed his nose, and appeared to be completely unharmed.

"-0!"

The damage numbers are still strikingly obvious.

"How is this possible! That's a ghostly blue light burst! My body can only withstand it once; a second time would render it useless. This terrifying ghostly blue light burst couldn't even harm this huge barrel in the slightest?"

Nordow finally felt a sense of fear.

The Azure Light Burst is his ultimate weapon, which once shot down a god and dealt billions of damage. How could such a powerful move not be able to damage that damn big barrel?

"Little god of the Mechanical Temple, you've done your best!" Lei Chi sighed softly. "You have two minutes. Get out of here!"

Nordow staggered back two steps, but did not run away. Without saying a word, he waved his hand, and the mechanical temple below suddenly began to transform automatically. With a series of clicks, it gradually transformed into a huge mecha giant in the blink of an eye.

This mecha has the texture of porcelain, is estimated to be 500 meters tall, has a giant cannon on its left shoulder, and carries a huge battle sword in its right hand. It has three eyes on its face, with the third eye located between its eyebrows and surrounded by electric light.

This time, Lei Chi hurriedly retreated and took out a real mask to put on.

He wasn't afraid of the massive thing itself, but rather of the unknown entity hidden within the mechanical temple, whose combat power exceeded six hundred million.

Lei Chi wasn't entirely sure if that guy was the 152 Heavenly Venerable, but keeping his distance was probably the right thing to do.

"Trying to leave? Too late! Hmph, if you stay in Bliss City, I can't do anything to you for a while. But to come out and provoke me is courting death!"

The mechanical god Nordhua seemed to have sent another message, pointing towards the Thunder Pool once more and shouting, "Alchemy God Sniper!"

With a whoosh!

The third eye between the brows of the mecha giant formed from the mechanical temple opened, and a pale golden light shot out from it, almost at the speed of light, and shone on Lei Chi's chest.

Lei Chi felt as if he had been bitten by a mosquito. He was physically powerful, possessing the characteristics of both the Great Jade Divine Body and the Starry Sky Divine Body. Furthermore, he had created his own universe within his body, and his vitality had reached an incredible level. At this moment, he was also wearing the True Mask, so the attack posed no threat to him.

However, Lei Chi also sensed the unusual nature of this attack.

He felt that the mechanical temple had blasted the alchemical array towards him. After he was hit, the power that wanted to turn him into a metallic life form quickly spread throughout his body and even corroded his soul.

This power is very strange, unlike a direct attack, and most people would definitely not be able to withstand it.

Lei Chi is no ordinary person. Not only is his soul powerful, but his physical body is also perfect. Let alone this cannon fire, even if the alchemy array were moved here, it would be impossible to transform him into a metallic life form.
