The most eye-catching is the tall tower located in the city center, which is shaped more like an altar with a round flying saucer on top.

This is what they call a perpetual motion machine.

A battle was breaking out in the city. Li Muzhi was too far away to see the specific situation on the battlefield, but the continuous sound of explosions was very lively.

"What's the situation now?" Li Muzhi asked when he saw Candice and the red-robed priest coming over.

"The devil is destroying our city. All attacks have no effect in front of it." The red-robed priest raised his hands: "This is a punishment from God. We must have angered the gods."

Li Muzhi pursed his lips and looked at Candice, signaling her to speak human language.

"That's the mecha my son is driving." Candice looked unhappy. "For unknown reasons, the communication system is unusable. I don't know why he attacked the Femani Divine Kingdom. This is different from our plan."

Li Muzhi saw anxiety on her face, which was different from the steady feeling she always gave people.

It seems that the mecha's explosion this time was not part of her plan.

"Our technology all comes from the spaceship." Candice began to explain: "That armor is the highest technological achievement on the spaceship, and our energy all comes from that perpetual motion machine, so weapons cannot cause damage to the armor."

"I understand." Li Muzhi nodded. He understood what she meant. It turned out that she had to call him and Tsuchimikado Setsuna over because she wanted to use other powers to defeat the out-of-control armor.

"I will send you to the front line next." Candice looked at Li Muzhi: "If he continues to destroy, everything here will be destroyed by him. The next step is the ground."

"Uh, wait..." Li Muzhi waved his hand hastily: "I am just a special envoy in charge of negotiations, not a savior."

"You are the only ones who can help us now." Candice held up Li Muzhi's hands: "From now on, you will be our underground residents' eternal friend and savior. You can get everything you want."

Li Muzhi glanced at her. Candice was a successful politician. The essence of a politician was that nothing she said could be trusted.

Of course, he could also make a request now, such as having something happen with this beautiful mother, and she would definitely be happy to do so.

In addition, all future promises will be invalidated using high emotional intelligence methods after the matter is over.

Li Muzhi was about to speak up to refuse, but when the words were on the tip of his tongue, Tsuchimikado Setsuna, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.

"For the sake of peace in the underground world, we have no choice but to do this."

"Eh?" Li Muzhi glanced at Tsuchimikado Setsuna. He didn't remember his mother being such a helpful person.

"That's great." This was the first time Candice met Tsuchimikado Setsuna, and she usually didn't say a word.

At this time, he took the initiative to stand up, and his favorability towards her instantly soared. He walked in front of Tsuchimikado Setsuna with a sincere face:

"Thank you, Lord Setsuna."

Tsuchimikado Setsuna smiled and shook his head, his expression more sincere than hers: "We at Qingming Shrine have been protecting mankind for hundreds of years. This is our mission."

Li Muzhi looked at the sincere expression on her face and always felt that something was wrong.

After Tsuchimikado Setsuna agreed, Candice did not delay and hurriedly had someone drive a transport vehicle to take the two of them to the underground battlefield.

At the same time, they were guaranteed that when the incident was over, they would receive material gifts from the underground world.

"Will they really give us money?" Li Muzhi asked in a low voice, "And what about the lifelong hero treatment?"

"My child." Tsuchimikado Setsuna tapped his lips with his folding fan: "Remember, this is just like the year-end bonus mentioned by the boss. The value of workers always depends not on what they can bring to them in the future, but what they have done in the past."

"Um... okay." Li Muzhi nodded and turned to look towards the city center.

The transportation here is powered by a perpetual motion machine and is very fast. The two soon reached the edge of the battlefield.

Li Muzhi finally saw the situation on the battlefield clearly.

There are countless soldiers holding energy guns here, and there are various heavy weapons around.

The one fighting with them was a giant armored being that was ten meters tall.

Countless firepower was poured onto the armor, but it only made him stagger. He was able to stand firmly immediately and then knock down one armored vehicle at a time with one punch.

The soldiers of the Femani Divine Kingdom were extremely brave. Even though the weapons in their hands could not cause damage to the armor, they still marched forward without even a shred of retreat.

Li Muzhi was infected by the surrounding atmosphere and his blood boiled for no reason.

He turned to look at Tsuchimikado Setsuna and asked, "How should we deal with this guy?"

This iron lump with super strong defense is a model that can restrain Li Muzhi. You can't expect this kind of armor to have a chrysanthemum that can inflict critical damage to him.

However, with Tsuchimikado Setsuna by his side, Li Muzhi was not worried at all. At this time, he just needed to hold on to his thigh.

Tsuchimikado Setsuna carefully examined the armor that appeared to be invincible, stretched out two fingers, and held them with his other hand.

A talisman with arcs of electricity appeared out of thin air between her fingers.

Tsuchimikado instantly pointed the talisman at the mecha, and a bolt of lightning as thick as one meter appeared out of thin air above the mecha's head.

Then it chopped down towards the mecha's head, and in just a moment, the entire body of the mecha was wrapped in electric current.

But it only lasted for a second before the lightning was absorbed by the mecha, and its punching movements became three times faster.

To outsiders, this attack seemed like Tsuchimikado Setsuna had added a buff to the mecha.

"It seems that lightning has little effect on things like mechas." Li Muzhi changed his emotional intelligence to express it.

As the mecha's destruction speed increased, Li Muzhi soon noticed that the destroyed armored vehicles would be absorbed by the mecha, making it larger in size.

This mecha is not only powerful, but can also increase its size by absorbing metal.

"It has to be resolved quickly." Li Muzhi was also a little panicked. He glanced at the perpetual motion machine in the city center. With that thing, the mecha would not have to worry about energy problems and could continue to be strengthened.

"Yeah." Tsuchimikado Setsuna looked at the mecha seriously, waved his hand, turned and left: "It's hopeless, run."

"Ah?" Li Muzhi was confused. He glanced at the members of the Femani Divine Kingdom who were fighting and chose to follow Tsuchimikado Setsuna.

As he ran, he asked, "Mom, are we leaving like this?"

"Well, that thing can't be eliminated now." Tsuchimikado Setsuna shook his head: "We need to use other methods."

"As expected of my mother, have you thought of a solution?" Li Muzhi said excitedly.

Tsuchimikado Setsuna looked at him with a half-smile, then pointed at the perpetual motion machine with his folding fan: "Just destroy that thing, that's all."

Chapter 409 Pattern

Li Muzhi looked in the direction that Tsuchimikado Setsuna pointed, and his expression instantly became strange. This was not solving someone's problem at all, it was clearly digging up someone's ancestral grave and then dancing on it.

If the perpetual motion machine is really destroyed, let alone becoming a hero of the underground people, it will definitely be a fight to the death.

The underground people's entire civilization, social mechanisms, and living habits are all built on perpetual motion machines. To destroy the perpetual motion machine is to destroy the foundation of their country.

"Mom, are you serious?" Li Muzhi dodged the attack from the giant mecha while observing Tsuchimikado Setsuna's expression.

"Why not?" Tsuchimikado Setsuna asked back.

"Everything they do is based on a perpetual motion machine. To destroy it is to destroy this civilization and this country."

Li Muzhi could not see any expression on Tsuchimikado Setsuna's face. It seemed that he was just narrating some objective facts, rather than destroying a civilization with his own hands.

"This is neither a civilization nor a country." Tsuchimikado Setsuna looked at Li Muzhi meaningfully and replied:

"This is just a lie made up by those in power in order to better rule. It's not even that clever."

Tsuchimikado Setsuna said as he looked up at the perpetual motion machine: "Since its existence has created unsolvable troubles, there is no need for it to exist."

As she spoke, the mecha's height suddenly grew to nearly fifteen meters, and it went from knocking down an armored vehicle with one punch to knocking over a row of armored vehicles with a wave of its hand.

Crushed debris flew in the air; this had turned into a one-sided battle.

The warriors of Femani's Kingdom still did not retreat, and charged towards the invincible mecha again and again.

Li Muzhi pointed at the battlefield and asked, "What does their sacrifice count for?"

Tsuchimikado did not answer. She clasped her hands together, as if tangible demonic power was gathering around her body.

From Li Muzhi's perspective, the space around her seemed to be distorted.

Tsuchimikado waved his hands instantly, and afterimages of his arms appeared in the air, like a dream, as if they were not in this space.

The demonic power condensed into a green dragon in the front, which let out an earth-shaking roar and flew towards the perpetual motion machine at the highest point of the altar in the city center.

"Are you serious?" Li Muzhi was stunned. He didn't expect that Tsuchimikado Setsuna would do what he said without any hesitation.

Not only him, but everyone on the battlefield fell silent, looking up at the giant dragon rising into the sky.

At this moment, time seemed to have stopped.

The blue dragon encountered no obstruction and crashed straight into the perpetual motion machine.

When the two collided, the blue dragon's body began to crack outwards, like a balloon filled with hydrogen. The moment it encountered fire, there was a loud "boom".

The atmosphere within hundreds of meters around Qinglong seemed as clean as if it had been wiped clean by an eraser. The top of the altar, which was connected to the perpetual motion machine, turned into dust and disappeared from sight in just a moment.

Candice and the priest of the Femani religion, who were watching the battle from a distance, both opened their mouths wide and stopped thinking for a moment.

Tsuchimikado Setsuna looked at the direction of consumption, nodded with satisfaction, turned to look at Li Muzhi, and said with a smile:

"This is what you want to learn. You compress your demonic power into a point to attack. If you are skilled enough, you can make it into any shape you want, such as a hot girl. But you can only look at it. If you use it, it might explode."

"..." Li Muzhi came back to his senses and looked at Tsuchimikado Setsuna, his mouth twitching: "Mom, can you please not drive at this time?"

As the perpetual motion machine went out of operation, the underground world fell into darkness in an instant. After all, the disappearance of the perpetual motion machine as an energy source was equivalent to turning off the main switch. The world became quiet in an instant.

Li Muzhi is a Nine-Tailed Fox with night vision ability, he quickly looked towards the mecha.

The mecha, which had grown to a height of twenty meters, stopped attacking the moment the perpetual motion mechanism stopped.

The steel on its body is slowly disintegrating, just like an iron product attracted by a magnet, losing its magnetism in an instant.

They began to fall down one after another, like sand dunes blown up by the wind, and quickly dissolved.

Li Muzhi saw a familiar figure among a pile of scrap copper and iron. It was Shangsugi Xia Xiang. He was stunned at first, and then he felt unwell.

"Why is this damn thing here?" Li Muzhi roared, and without caring about anyone else, he rushed towards the place where Uesugi Xia Xiang fell.

He was very fast, and the two of them were not far from the battlefield, so he ran to the disassembled location of the mecha in the chaos and picked her up.

Uesugi Xia Xiang was in a coma with her eyes closed. Li Muzhi put his hand on her chest, but since she was completely unconscious, it did not affect her heartbeat at all.

After confirming that her life was not in danger, Li Muzhi breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, Tsuchimikado Setsuna was standing behind him.

"Let's go~" Tsuchimikado Setsuna pointed around. At this time, due to a sudden power outage, the entire underground world was plunged into darkness.

All of their technology trees are based on the construction of perpetual motion machines, and they have no contingency plans at all, which means that once the perpetual motion machine fails, the entire world will come to a standstill.

Li Muzhi held the unconscious Uesugi Xia Xiang in his arms and ran out with Tsuchimikado Setsuna without being stopped by anyone.

The good news is that the passage leading to the surface was built by people on the surface, so it can be used normally.
