Minecraft players are invading the worlds.

[Urgent analysis of evasion and escape routes is underway...]

[57 escape routes that fit the current terrain of the asteroid belt have been identified...]

[The optimal retreat route has been planned. Please immediately shift 45 degrees to the lower right along the Z-axis, activate the backup thrust reverser, and enter the shadow belt of Meteorite 7.]

Hearing the AI's emotionless voice, Baal felt a surge of resentment and humiliation, but he knew the AI's calculations were absolutely accurate.

If he were to withstand such a powerful sword strike, his mech would definitely disintegrate on the spot.

"Damn monster."

Baal gritted his teeth and cursed, his hands moving in a blur on the control panel.

The six vectoring nozzles on the back of the red mech simultaneously spewed out tongues of fire, and the massive steel body narrowly avoided the edge of the four-colored sword energy at the last second.

"boom!"

The sword energy struck a giant asteroid behind where Baal had just been standing, cleaving it in two with a smooth, mirror-like surface.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Baal controlled the mech to follow the optimal route planned by the AI, like a ghost, and burrowed into a dense patch of meteorite shadows, beginning a frantic escape and struggle.

……

"Tsk."

In space, Xu Tian watched as the red mech, like an eel, disappeared once again into the pile of meteorites.

"This guy seems a bit difficult to deal with. He doesn't confront me directly at all. He knows when to ambush me and which routes to take."

As Xu Tian used his longsword to shatter the rubble blocking his path, he followed closely behind the mecha, pondering to himself.

at the same time.

Far behind the main battlefield, in the main control room of the All-Heavens Guild reconnaissance ship that was quietly floating in the void.

Feng Xue stood in front of the huge holographic star map, his brows slightly furrowed.

In front of her, a live feed from a frontline maid robot was floating in the air, directly connected to Xu Tian's perspective from his interstellar armor.

Feng Xue's eyes, as bright as stars, were fixed on every evasive maneuver and route selection of the enemy red mech on the screen.

Something's not right.

Feng Xue murmured something softly, then pressed the communication button, connecting directly to Xu Tian's channel.

"Brother Tian, ​​something's not right. Don't blindly pursue them too far."

The sound of the wind and snow was clear, cold, and rational.

"I just carefully observed the opponent's evasion capabilities and tactical choices. In the complex environment of the asteroid belt, even the most skilled ace pilot cannot instinctively choose the perfect escape route and the best firing angle every time they are attacked."

Fengxue paused, then his tone became very firm.

"This means that the enemy's mechs definitely have an extremely powerful main control AI that performs real-time auxiliary analysis. That AI is constantly calculating your ballistics, speed, and surrounding terrain data."

Upon hearing Feng Xue's analysis, Xu Tian, ​​who was chasing Baal in space while casually slashing a few sword energies to shatter the asteroids blocking his way, suddenly realized the truth.

"I knew this guy was like a prophet."

Xu Tian responded in the channel.

"So he was using a cheat code."

"That's right, because the system of Conquer Online is too complex. The magic, martial arts, combat, and spell system and the industrial technology module are largely developed independently."

Feng Xue sighed and said with some helplessness.

"Therefore, although the full set of interstellar equipment we are wearing has incredible defense and attribute bonuses, the system has not connected it to an advanced AI that can perform real-time tactical analysis. In terms of computing power and terrain utilization, we are at an absolute disadvantage."

"Is there any solution now?"

As Xu Tian deftly dodged a meteorite shattered by a laser, he asked.

"If we rely solely on our reaction speed and intuition to pursue them, we'll definitely be manipulated by their cold, hard code."

After listening, Fengxue crossed his arms and fell into a brief state of thought.

Indeed, in this game, no matter how fast a human player's reaction speed is, it is impossible to do what the AI ​​can do: analyze dozens of routes and select the optimal solution in a second.

The advantage of code is that it doesn't get tired or panic, and it can always provide the most rational assistance.

How do we solve this?

At this moment, seeing that Feng Xue had fallen silent and did not reply, Xu Tian could only grit his teeth and continue to chase after Baal.

In the midst of this tense chase, the live stream chat on Xu Tian's channel was flooded with comments, with countless viewers offering advice and suggestions.

[This alien is so sneaky! When it can't beat someone, it sews diamonds into its head, and it even has an auto-pathfinding cheat provided by the game's official developers.]

[Brother Tian, ​​chasing like this isn't working. They have AI that calculates routes; you guys are just getting played like monkeys.]

[If you ask me, why not just go all the way and have Wind and Snow bring over all the guild's main warships, unleash a salvo from their main guns, and blast this entire asteroid field and all those mechs to smithereens? Wouldn't that be so satisfying?]

[Are you out of your mind? Do you think this is target practice on a plain? Warships are that big; what if they get locked onto by the firepower of thousands of enemy warships on the front lines?]

[That's right. Warships don't have resurrection items like the Undying Totem. If one is destroyed, it's really gone. Sacrificing a warship for a few dozen broken mechs is a terrible loss.]

【What can we do? We can't just stand by and watch Tian Ge and the others get carried away, can we?】

Chapter 397 So shameless?

While the netizens in the live broadcast room were arguing endlessly.

Inside the bridge of the mothership of the main fleet of the Hiro Empire, Zhang Qi was also monitoring the battle situation in the asteroid belt through holographic radar.

When it saw that the fifty terrifyingly powerful human warriors had actually been successfully lured into the asteroid cluster by Baal's team and were now embroiled in a fierce battle, its massive tentacles couldn't help but wave excitedly.

"Hahaha, well done! Baal has finally done a great job."

A fervent hope rekindled in Zhang Qi's previously despairing compound eyes.

As long as it can hold off these demon-like human powerhouses, its fleet still has a chance to turn the tide!

"Pass on my order: strike while the iron is hot and kill him."

Zhang Qi immediately shouted into the communicator.

"Release all the fleet's reserve drone swarms, as well as those conventional mech units with only surface-level capabilities, send them all to the battlefield."

"The target is that asteroid belt. Overwhelm them with numbers, use suicide attacks to hold them back, and make sure to keep those fifty men pinned down there. We absolutely cannot let them get close to our main fleet."

"Yes, Captain."

Following Zhang Qi's frantic command, countless massive launch hatches opened on the bellies of the thousands of dark gold main warships.

Like countless wasps leaving their nest, tens of millions of tactical drones and thousands of smaller surface-level conventional mechs surged into space like a dark cloud, rushing madly toward the asteroid belt.

At this moment, Xu Tian, ​​who was inside the asteroid cluster, naturally noticed the countless red dots surging like a tide on the radar.

"Damn, is this squid leader trying to disgust me to death with his minions?"

Xu Tian looked at the enemy army filling the sky.

"We can't let them lead us by the nose anymore; we must break this deadlock."

Xu Tian immediately made up his mind.

He directly opened the pet interface and forcibly summoned back his pet, Xiao Xu, who was engrossed in fighting on the outer main battlefield.

With a violent distortion of space, a black void rift tore open right next to Xu Tian.

Little Xu emerged from the crack.

As soon as Xiao Xu appeared, it flicked its huge tail in dissatisfaction, and a voice as deep as an abyss echoed in Xu Tian's mind.

"Master, why did you suddenly pull me back? I was having a great time on the battlefield, and I was about to tear those iron ships to shreds."

Xu Tian had no time to listen to its complaints. He pointed to the asteroid belt ahead, a complex area where enemy mechs were hidden, and said in a serious tone.

"Stop messing around. There are plenty of people to take care of those wrecked ships. Now I have something important for you. Immediately unleash your skill [Void Turbulence] on this asteroid belt."

"It affects and distorts the void structure of this area. Aren't the mechs on the other side supposed to use AI to calculate the terrain? I'd like to see how their crappy computers can run when even space is messed up."

Upon hearing Xu Tian's command, a hint of human-like excitement flashed in the Void Dragon's enormous vertical pupils.

Destroying space is its specialty.

"Yes, Master, as you wish, let them witness the wrath of the abyss."

Xiao Xu let out a soul-shaking roar.

Its enormous wings suddenly spread open, and a chilling pure black energy instantly erupted from its body.

"Boom!"

Centered on the Void Dragon, a massive black vortex, like a blooming flower of death, suddenly burst forth in space.

This violent void energy, like a tsunami, swept wildly towards the asteroid belt ahead.

At this moment, Baal, who was hiding behind a huge meteorite and preparing to launch a sneak attack, suddenly noticed through the rearview camera that Xu Tian, ​​who had been relentlessly pursuing him, had stopped.

"What's going on? Why did this person suddenly stop? Did he give up the chase?"

A sense of doubt arose in Baal's mind.

He quickly maneuvered the mecha away from its current position, cautiously poking his head out to look in Xu Tian's direction.

However, what came into his view was a terrifying scene that he would never forget.

Beside the human, a colossal black beast of enormous size had appeared out of nowhere.

A black vortex that devoured all light was rising from the body of that giant beast.

As the vortex spread, Baal was horrified to discover that the once peaceful cosmic space around him was beginning to tremble and distort violently, visible to the naked eye.

Those meteorites that originally rotated according to the laws of physics began to tremble, shatter, and even disappear into the black cracks that suddenly appeared, as if they were being kneaded at will by an invisible giant hand.

The main control AI inside the Baal mech immediately issued an unprecedentedly piercing alarm.

【Extremely Dangerous Warning!】

[An uninterpretable, extremely high-intensity energy fluctuation was detected]

[Judgment Result: The opponent is using some unknown means to forcibly influence and distort the surrounding void structure, and the physical laws of the current area are being severely disrupted.]

Upon hearing the analysis report from the main AI, Barton gasped in shock.
