All Gods: Starting with Two Families

Chapter 134 The First Battle of the MachinesZhou Zheng stood in the Void Realm, lost in a daze for a long time.

A thousand years had passed within his Divine Realm.

Yet in the outside world, only a single day had gone by.

But under the mighty power of the gods, the Myriad Spirits Divine System before him had already undergone a massive transformation.

The crystal wall was no longer that original thin barrier. It had been remodeled into a honeycomb-like hollow structure, with countless tiny holes densely arranged like a precise work of art.

Sunlight burst from the depths of the Divine System, repeatedly refracting, converging, and amplifying among those holes—

An energy amplifier.

Zhou Zheng understood with just one look. The Sun God used this method to amplify the energy of that false sun countless times, allowing the entire Divine System to enjoy its warm protection.

Many Planes were also attached to the crystal wall.

They were like little bubbles, clinging tightly to the inner side of the crystal wall, absorbing the amplified light through those holes.

Those belonged to the God Systems that had newly joined the Divine Alliance; they had moved their own crystal walls over to seek protection.

Time was running out, and Zhou Zheng silently departed.

The calamity was coming.

...

In the Divine Realm, the last growth ring of the one year wither and flourish tree extinguished.

The entire tree withered instantly, turning into ash.

At that same moment—

A massive rift split open above the Divine Realm.

On the other side of the rift was the Calamity Abyss. Those calamity cards that had accumulated for a thousand years had long been unable to wait. Like sharks scenting blood, they scrambled to pour out of the rift, crashing into the Divine Realm and manifesting into physical forms—

Mechanical creatures.

...

The Eastern Front.

When the first Mechanical Wolf landed, the Feathered Serpent Beastman Leader was already waiting there.

He raised a hand and punched; the Mechanical Wolf’s head exploded directly, scattering parts everywhere. More mechanical creatures were falling—Mechanical Tigers, Mechanical Hawks, Mechanical Snakes, densely packed like rain.

”They’re here,” he grinned and soared into the sky.

The warriors of Feathered Serpent City followed behind him, their bodies pulsing with Blood Patterns as they charged into the swarm of mechanical creatures. One punch for one, one kick for a pair. The mechanical creatures’ sharp claws could not tear through their scales, and their teeth could not bite through their muscles.

...

The Western Front.

The Elemental Naga Queen stood at the very front, her hands forming seals.

Lightning struck, flames burned, and frost froze. Before those mechanical creatures could even get close, they were blasted into fragments by various elemental attacks. A Giant Mechanical Wolf braved the flames to charge before her, only to be sliced in half by a water blade she raised.

...

The Southern Front.

The Nether Ant Queen presided over the Underground City entrance, as tens of thousands of Nether Soldier Ants poured out from beneath the earth.

They were like a black tide, submerging the mechanical creatures. With formic acid corroding and mandibles biting, those mechanical creatures struggled and resisted, but ultimately turned into piles of scrap metal. A Mechanical Spider tried to bypass from the side, but was simultaneously tackled by three soldier ants and dismantled into parts.

...

The Northern Front.

Pale Feather transformed into his true form, a massive Golden-Winged Great Peng. With a reach of his sharp claws, he snatched up a Mechanical Tiger and threw it into the sea. The Scale Clan was already waiting in the water, swarming up to dismantle that Mechanical Tiger into parts. The Feathered Clan took to the sky while the Scale Clan took to the water, cooperating seamlessly.

...

The Jade Rabbit Clan was responsible for logistics.

Those snow-white rabbits were frantically pounding medicine in the Land Under the Moon, the sound of the pestles ringing from nightfall until dawn. Healing, Qi-restoring, speed-boosting, strength-enhancing—various secret medicines were continuously sent to the front lines. Injured followers retreated, downed a bottle of medicine, rested for a moment, and then charged back into the battlefield.

The Divine Realm held a complete advantage.

...

Half an hour later.

On the Eastern Front, the mechanical creatures began to change.

A Mechanical Wolf lunged at a Feathered Serpent Beastman again and was smashed by a punch. But this time, an electric arc flew out from the fragments, accurately striking the Feathered Serpent Beastman’s eye.

He clutched his eye, let out a miserable scream, and stumbled back a few steps.

A companion nearby stepped up and tore apart the next Mechanical Wolf. The same electric arc, the same angle, accurately struck the eye again.

The third. The fourth. The fifth.

The newly landed mechanical wolves no longer approached the Feathered Serpent Beastmen. They stood far off, opening their mouths, which flickered with electric light. Electric arcs poured down like rain, bypassing those powerful bodies to directly attack their eyes.

At the same time—

On the Western Front, the newly landed mechanical creatures had an extra layer of silver-grey coating. Lightning hitting the coating was conducted away; flames hitting the coating were extinguished; frost hitting the coating turned into water.

Anti-magic Coating.

The Elemental Naga Queen’s expression changed.

On the Southern Front, the individual strength of the newly landed mechanical creatures had dropped slightly, but their numbers were endless, surging forward like an iron torrent.

On the Northern Front, a new type of mechanical creature appeared in the sky. They were small and fast, specifically targeting the Feathered Clan. The moment the Feathered Clan took flight, they were entangled. A type of Mechanical Fish also appeared in the sea, and the Scale Clan began to encounter opponents in the deep water.

At that same moment.

Four battlefronts.

All encountered danger simultaneously.

That giant Mechanical Spider appeared in the center of the battlefield at some unknown point, its eight legs supporting its body as countless scanning light beams shot from its eyes, simultaneously scanning the Eastern, Western, Southern, and Northern Fronts.

It spoke.

Its voice was cold, devoid of any emotion.

”Data collection complete. Adaptive evolution initiated. Synchronized advancement on four fronts.”

Zhou Zheng stood in the Void Realm, watching all of this.

The scent of the Truth Series.

Those mechanical creatures were simultaneously analyzing the combat styles of the four battlefronts and making targeted changes at the same time.

If the Feathered Serpent Beastmen had strong bodies, they used electromagnetic attacks.

If the Elemental Naga had strong magic, they used Anti-magic Coatings.

If the Nether Soldier Ants were numerous, they brought more enemies.

If the Feathered and Scale Clans had strong coordination, they used specialized unit suppression.

In a single moment, they threw all four battlefronts into a bitter struggle.

Inside the rift, even more mechanical creatures were still pouring out. That spider stood at the very center, its eight legs trembling slightly like a commander, simultaneously deploying the entire battlefield.

Zhou Zheng took a deep breath.

The real battle was only just beginning.
