“Well, let Miss Shubi try attacking me first,” Karl said.

"Huh? That's not a good idea. Shubi isn't a combat-type Mech; she might get hurt in a fight," Riku tried to dissuade her.

"It's alright, I don't want to fight her. She just needs to attack me. I won't fight back," Karl said, waving his hand.

The thing Karl most wanted to confirm was whether his magic immunity would work in this world, and the Machine Seed Shubi was definitely a good sparring partner.

Leaving aside the energy output, the Machine Race has a wide range of methods. They can analyze enemy attacks to reproduce their opponents' moves. Although the Machine Race is a neutral race, the war has lasted for so long that they have been involved in the methods of various races, so it's a good opportunity for Karl to try them out.

Since Karl had already said so, Riku naturally had no reason to refuse. However, he still needed to ask Shubi's opinion, so he asked, "Shubi, what do you think?"

“Yes, this place is far from the settlements of other races, and a black and gray storm will occur in a few minutes, which will be just enough to cover up any related movements and shield us from the detection of other races,” Shubi nodded.

A few minutes later, Karl and Shubi reached the summit, while Riku remained in the cave. The black and gray storm was deadly to humans, and Shubi was about to launch an attack.

Carl caught some black ash in his hand. This stuff didn't harm him, but it wasn't certain whether it was due to his magic immunity or the strength of his cells.

"Are you ready, Mr. Superman?"

Opposite Karl, Schwi, who had already taken off his clothes, revealing his entire mechanical structure, asked.

“Of course, you can attack at any time,” Karl said, tossing away the black ash.

Hughie transformed her hand into a cannon and aimed it at Karl, at which point she began to resemble a robot: "Pseudo-Classic Water Bomb."

Karl casually deflected the water balloons that Shubi shot at him and said, "Miss Shubi, you could have been a little more serious. At least try to look like you're in a fight."

Shubi nodded expressionlessly: "False Dragon Roar!"

Chapter 261 Preparing for the Visit

A very ominous black magic circle appeared behind Shubi, from which a huge amount of black ash and spirit remains poured out, just as a more powerful car emits more exhaust fumes, a stronger spell will also produce more spirit remains.

The Dragon Roar that Shubi is about to unleash is definitely one of the top-tier techniques.

The Mech race does not develop its own techniques; it relies almost entirely on copying from other races. All copied techniques are called pseudo-canonical spells. The Dragon Roar is the most powerful attack technique they have copied.

Its origin is the roar released by the Yanlong among the dragon spirits when it is in dire straits, at the cost of its own collapse. Therefore, the full name of this move should be the Yanlong's Collapse Roar.

boom!!!

The massive black and red light cannon fired, and the mountaintop beneath its feet was completely burned to ashes in less than a millisecond. It also hit Karl head-on, who hadn't even considered dodging.

The true Yanlong Roar has a much larger range and is more powerful than Shubi's. Shubi doesn't have the ability to completely replicate it, but she can make certain changes to it.

When Yanlong uses this attack, she is facing all the machine-type creatures, but at this moment she only has one target. Therefore, Shubi can use the method of narrowing the range to increase the power of the pseudo-Yanlong's roar.

Through her own calculations and improvements, Shubi's light cannon successfully achieved 43.7% of the original's power.

After the light cannon hit Karl, its momentum did not diminish. Even the black and gray storm was dispersed by this attack. Fortunately, Shubi also released a lot of black and gray, which was enough to barely make up for the gap.

"Mr. Superman? Dian Kai Wide Area Search."

The hilltop had been destroyed, and after the attack, Hughie naturally couldn't see Karl in the original spot, so she activated the search function and began to look for Karl's location along the trail left by Yanlongxiao.

Because of its concentrated energy, Shubi's light cannon was only two meters in diameter, so the damage it caused was not significant. However, some things happened to be in front of the light cannon, and whatever those things were, they were all reduced to ashes.

Hughie flew over several mountains with holes punched through them, and finally spotted Karl hundreds of miles away. He was standing in a pile of molten rocks, brushing the dust off his body.

"Mr. Superman, it's so good to see you're alright," Shubi said after landing. "I did some calculations using the data in that book, and you really were able to withstand the attack of the Dragon Roar. How do you feel?"

In the comics that Shubi had read, there was a scene where Superman survived after being sucked into a black hole. Therefore, after a round of probing attacks, she directly used the Dragon's Roar. Now it seems that what happened in the comics was probably true.

"It hurts a little, but it's okay," Carl replied calmly.

43.7% of the dragon's roar did not harm him, but Karl was not very happy because he felt pain. Perhaps it was because the elven magic unique to this world was alive and not the same kind of magic that Karl was immune to.

“Miss Shubi, I already know about offensive magic. Do you know any magical spells that can achieve special effects, such as illusions?” Karl asked.

Since he is not immune to the magic of this world, a big question arises for Karl: is his resistance to special effects as poor as Superman's, since Superman is often controlled by magic and the like?

“No,” Hugh said.

"Then numbness... um, you don't know how?"

Karl was somewhat surprised that the Mechs didn't know that kind of magic. Aren't they supposed to be able to easily replicate other people's attacks?

Shubi immediately explained, "The magic that the machine races possess is achieved by analyzing the attack data of other races on us. As machines, we are naturally immune to illusions, so we do not record this kind of data."

So that's how it is. Karl thought about it and it made sense. Machine races don't keep useless data. In the original story, when Shubi wanted to pass on her heart to her race, she didn't get permission at first because heart data was considered worthless at the time.

“If Superman wants to experience illusion magic, there are three races that can fulfill your request,” Schwie suggested.

"Oh, which three?"

“Forest elves are the most skilled in magic and will definitely use illusions. Vampires are also very knowledgeable about it because they need to drink the blood of other races. Finally, there are sea creatures. They are all female and need males of other races to reproduce. They have the most powerful charm when they are in the ocean,” Shubi said in one breath.

Karl nodded in satisfaction. It was good that there was a solution. He did indeed intend to visit other races. If he wanted to settle down here, he needed to have some understanding of the customs and culture of this world.

"Let's go back first, so Mr. Riku won't worry."

Karl and Shubi quickly returned to the original cave, and Riku breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that they were both unharmed.

When Yan Longxiao was released, the entire mountain shook. Although the human had no intention of doing so, his eyesight was quite good. Riku immediately realized that at least one of the two was serious. Fortunately, nothing serious happened in the end.

Next, Carl told Riku about what had just happened and his next plan.

“That’s settled then. I plan to visit other races first, to understand the situation in this world, and perhaps find a few like-minded allies,” Karl said.

“Yes, that’s a good approach, but Shubi and I can’t offer you any help in this regard. Humans can’t be exposed easily, while the individual actions of the Machine Race will unconditionally represent the whole, and appearing on the territory of other races is tantamount to declaring war,” Riku said apologetically.

Carl said nonchalantly, "It's alright, acting alone is actually more flexible."

“Then we’ll wait for you to come back here, and we can also take a look at this chat group,” Riku said.

“Hmm.” Karl nodded. “By the way, regarding the chat group quests, you can join and leave the world at any time. If you’re interested, you can try going to other worlds with the group members. You might find some different insights.”

Riku's eyes immediately lit up. He had always wanted to settle down in other worlds and felt it was a pity that he couldn't join the mission to Spider-Man's world. Now, it was an unexpected joy for him.

Carl quickly bid farewell to Riku and the other two, heading to the territory of other races, while Riku opened the chat group and joined the team heading to Marvel.

It's a bit of a shame that Shubi couldn't go with him. Machine races are living beings too, especially a Machine race like Shubi who has developed a heart and has an independent personality.

In the blink of an eye, Ricky found himself in New York City in the Marvel Universe, surrounded by four unique group members.

Chapter 262 A Combination of Testing and Transaction

The world of game life.

Karl wanted to experience the special power of this world, and the first place he chose was the ocean, the place where marine species lived. This was not a random choice, but rather a decision he made after careful consideration, believing that marine species were the most suitable.

One reason is that marine species can only live in the ocean, making them easier to find than vampire species that hide in the shadows. Another reason is that the illusion magic of marine species is the only one among the three races that is passive.

Karl continued his journey towards the ocean, using his super vision to quickly locate the palace of the marine species. According to Shubi, the marine species possessed unparalleled charm when they were in the ocean.

Karl did not immediately enter the sea. Instead, to be on the safe side, he flew to an altitude of 3 meters to observe the appearance of the marine species.

The marine species is an all-female race, and each of them is incredibly beautiful, with human bodies and fish tails. Everywhere Karl looked, they were like this; among all these marine species, not one was unattractive.

"It is indeed very charming, but as expected, you can't feel the racial abilities of marine species if you are too far away. It is beautiful, but it is far from the unparalleled charm that Hughie mentioned. It is not even as good as the spider."

If Carl were to rank all the women he's ever met in terms of charm, Spider-Woman would be number one. She's incredibly beautiful, with white hair and red eyes, which is a huge plus for Carl.

Although marine species are also beautiful, Karl still prefers spiders when neither has any external enhancements.

"For charm-type abilities to influence people, they must go through some kind of medium. For marine species, the medium is probably seawater. It seems I still have to go to the seabed."

Karl slowly sank into the seawater, while paying close attention to every change in his body.

In the DC universe, Kryptonians are very bad at anything related to magic. Even if you put magical items in front of them, they might not be able to tell the difference. The magic that Karl is immune to is that kind of magic.

The elven magic of this world is theoretically a peculiar life form. Although Karl cannot use it, he can still barely sense it. It is invisible and intangible like a ghost, but it affects his physical body, making him feel extremely fond of the opposite sex in front of him.

"Hehe, handsome, I can't tell what race you are. Tell us!"

Soon after Karl entered the ocean, several marine creatures surrounded him, swimming slowly around him and intentionally or unintentionally displaying their beautiful bodies.

These marine creatures didn't know what race Karl was. Although he looked very much like a human, humans couldn't live in the sea, so he must be another race.

However, they were not worried about any danger, because even the superior races would be bewitched by their charm when they were in the sea, especially now that several sea creature guards were attacking at the same time.

Why isn't he saying anything? Is he shy?

"Perhaps the allure was too strong, causing him to lose his ability to think. Should we ease up a bit?"

"Let's forget about it and just take him back for interrogation."

"Hmm, after the review is complete, could you hand him over to us? It's been so long since I've seen such a handsome male."

Marine species are all female, so they need to kidnap males from other races to reproduce, and their charm ability is for this purpose.

Except for a very few marine species, other species cannot reproduce unless they completely drain the male during mating. Therefore, they can only use seduction, just like vampire species. To expand their population, they can only harm others.

The sea creature touched Karl's chest. Karl showed no outward reaction, but he was indeed somewhat dazed by the beauty. However, he was also carefully calculating how long he could maintain his sanity.

"If I continue like this, in another minute or two, the marine creature will probably become the most beautiful woman in my heart. Special abilities really do have an effect on me, but it doesn't seem to be insurmountable," Karl thought to himself.

Karl didn't know much about elven magic, but he could keenly perceive any changes in his body, making the magic traceable. For example, he could sense the charm magic of the sea creatures, which was acting on his brain.

"Since it works by affecting my brain, then let my brain produce the opposite change to counteract it."

The first thing Kryptonians need to learn to live in the human world is to control their bodies. Earth is like a house made of paper to them, and it will break if they are not careful.

Carl had lived peacefully with Earth for over twenty years, and his control over his body had naturally reached its peak, much like Superman's. Controlling brain activity and actively secreting desired pheromones were things he could do as long as he was serious.

"Alright, snap out of it and come with us obediently," a sea creature said in a seductive voice.

"No, I've already accomplished my purpose here. Let's not stay any longer. If we meet again in the future, things will probably be different."

Carl grabbed the sea creature's wrist and gently pulled him aside.

"what!"

The sea creatures were shocked. They realized that their charm abilities were ineffective, and they all unleashed their water magic to attack.

Water blades, water bullets, whirlpools, and the immense pressure of the deep sea—a barrage of magic rained down on Karl in an instant.

However, such an attack was far too weak for him. Karl didn't even glance at it and flew away from the ocean as if nothing had happened.

"Damn it, what is he even doing here? He just comes and goes as he pleases."

"You should say less. Actually, we should be glad that the other party has no ill intentions towards us."

The marine creatures had tried their best, but they couldn't even manage to stop them. Thinking back on it now, many of them felt a chill of fear. Fortunately, the other side didn't choose to fight them, otherwise, their fate would have been much worse.
