All Gods: Starting with Two Families

Chapter 105 War of Mechanical BeastsThe cold light in the Mechanical Lionman Leader’s electronic eyes intensified as a series of dense clicking sounds emanated from within its body.

More hideous mechanical parts pierced through its fur and extended outward, causing its entire body to swell once again while the metal skeleton let out an ear-grating groan.

However, Zhou Zheng suddenly gave an order at this moment, commanding all Nether Soldier Ants and ”Excavator” Generation II Mechas to retreat, withdrawing from the center of the battlefield.

Along with a long cry that could pierce gold and crack stone, a blue-gold figure charged into the battlefield like lightning—the Feathered Serpent Beastman Leader had descended!

A semi-mechanically modified Lionman against a Bloodline-evolved Feathered Serpent Beastman!

The Mechanical Lionman struck first, the thrusters beneath its feet erupting with wild thrust as it lunged forward like a blurred afterimage!

The Feathered Serpent Beastman Leader flapped his wings, nimbly soaring into the sky while simultaneously triggering his racial talent—[Weather Manipulation]!

In an instant, dark clouds rapidly gathered over the battlefield, lightning serpents danced wildly, and violent thunder crashed down like heavenly punishment!

Even if the Mechanical Lionman’s speed was extremely fast, how could it be faster than true lightning? Moreover, a body of metal was the best conductor!

Boom-crack!

A blinding bolt of lightning accurately struck the Mechanical Lionman!

Dazzling electrical sparks flashed as its massive body suddenly stiffened, smoke rising from its entire frame. Many precise internal components were instantly overloaded and burned out, making its movements stumble and lag.

”Since these parts are unusable... then swap them for stronger ones!”

The Mechanical Lionman roared, violently tearing off its damaged back armor.

With a heart-palpitating sound of Gears meshing and hydraulic transmission, a pair of massive, cold-glinting steel wings suddenly unfurled from behind its back!

He opened his giant maw, where massive energy gathered before violently erupting into a searing energy cannon blast that shot straight into the sky, actually blasting a large hole through the enveloping thunderclouds!

The steel wings flapped violently as the Mechanical Lionman soared into the air, its massive metal fist tearing through the atmosphere to smash ruthlessly toward the Feathered Serpent!

The Feathered Serpent was caught off guard, struck squarely in the chest by this heavy blow and sent flying backward for hundreds of meters.

But in the next moment, the blood-colored patterns covering his body throbbed violently as if they had come to life, and a majestic power surged forth—the racial talent skill [Racial True Form], activated!

His body rapidly expanded and transformed in the light, instantly turning into an Ancient Feathered Serpent far more massive and majestic than an ”Excavator” Mecha!

It let out a heaven-shaking hiss, its massive serpentine body coiling up like a mountain range to tightly constrict the Mechanical Lionman!

The immense pressure caused the metal armor on the Lionman’s body to let out an overburdened groan as parts began to crack and fall off!

The Mechanical Lionman struggled frantically, firing its energy cannon at point-blank range against the Feathered Serpent’s scales, only for the blast to be completely dissipated by a layer of flowing, soft energy—this was an exquisite mastery of power.

”I have more than just the Feathered Serpent Beastmen who can reach this level!”

As he spoke, a graceful yet powerful figure quietly appeared at the edge of the battlefield.

She had translucent rainbow-colored long hair, a lower body consisting of a serpentine tail covered in dazzling scales, and was surrounded by a halo of active elemental light—it was the Elemental Naga Queen!

The Feathered Serpent True Form suddenly exerted force, ruthlessly slamming the already deformed and constricted Mechanical Lionman into the ground!

A 1v1 battle relay!

A semi-mechanically modified Lionman against an elementally-evolved Naga!

The Elemental Naga Queen lightly gestured with her slender hand, and the elemental power she had long prepared instantly erupted.

A massive elemental vortex, emitting a terrifying suction force, suddenly formed at the Mechanical Lionman’s landing point, the powerful pulling force making it difficult for him to escape.

Immediately after, she triggered her core divine art—[Devour]!

Cooperating with the power of the elemental vortex, the Mechanical Lionman’s body was forcibly pulled and decomposed, the metal and energy constituting his body being frantically stripped away and devoured like quicksand!

”Do you see clearly now? Your path was wrong!” Zhou Zheng’s voice rang out coldly.

The Gold Lion Deity’s face was as pale as ash; he knew he had been utterly defeated.

”Roar!!!”

The Mechanical Lionman let out an unwilling roar before its death and violently self-detonated!

Zhou Zheng, who was equally proficient in the Dao of Machinery, had already prepared for this move.

The Feathered Serpent Beastman Leader had already distanced himself from the center of the explosion.

The Elemental Naga Queen put all her effort into maintaining the elemental vortex, doing her best to constrain and guide that destructive explosive energy, limiting most of its power to erupting within the vortex.

Boom—!!!

After the earth-shattering explosion, only a patch of scorched earth and scattered, twisted metal residue remained where the Mechanical Lionman had been.

The Elemental Naga Queen, slightly affected by the explosion’s aftershock, had half of her body blown to pieces.

But in the next moment, the various elemental particles permeating the Divine Domain gathered frantically as if summoned, quickly reshaping and repairing her body—an advanced application of the racial talent [Elemental Control]: Elementalization!

It was the use of this technique at the final moment that allowed her to be immune to most of the damage.

Looking at the Gold Lion Deity, who had already lost all will to fight, Zhou Zheng shook his head and said no more.

Relying on the Divine War Link forcibly constructed by the Primal Covenant, the Feathered Serpent True God he had manifested opened its heaven-swallowing maw, erupting with unparalleled suction to devour the residual Divine Domains of the Gold Lion Deity and the Minotaur Deity in one gulp!

Because his Dao Heart had been broken, the Gold Lion Deity’s will to resist was extremely low, which was exactly why Zhou Zheng had specifically let the Feathered Serpent Beastman and the Elemental Naga fight.

With the Gold Lion Deity’s complete fall, that ancient Beastman Primal Covenant within the Void Realm also shattered inch by inch, turning into spots of light and dissipating.

Zhou Zheng suddenly felt his Divine Soul lighten, as a heavy shackle that had bound him since his humble beginnings completely vanished.

When joining the Myriad Spirits Divine System, he had not signed any new contracts, only adding supplementary clauses to the Primal Covenant.

This meant—Zhou Zheng was now completely free!
