Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food

Chapter 1409: Chapter 742: Destroying the Sentinel

Liang Yuan’s heart was filled with shock.

This robot was practically another version of himself.

It was even stronger than him!

It could switch between different attribute modes and attack different enemies accordingly!

If it hadn’t been him here today, if it were any other single-attribute gene recombination expert, they’d probably have been completely countered by this Sentry Robot!

Boom!

Liang Yuan lashed out with a kick, sending the Sentry Robot flying. As blood mist billowed, he transformed again.

This time, his body turned into a gigantic golden creature, covered in golden Scale Armor, a pair of wings on its back, lion head and camel body, with long mane around its neck curling like Flame.

It was the Golden Fur Hou!

Swoosh!

The Golden Fur Hou leaped up in one bound and pounced onto the Sentry Robot in an instant.

The Sentry Robot’s Flame roared and surged wildly, trying to burn Liang Yuan’s Golden Fur Hou form to death.

Yet the Scale Armor on the Golden Fur Hou trembled, its fur bristled, completely fearless.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Only to hear the Scale Armor on the Sentry Robot’s hands tremble and then Transform and recombine, turning into Sharp blades that hacked madly at the Golden Fur Hou.

At once, a clatter of ding ding dang dang rang out nonstop, as if chopping at metal.

The Golden Fur Hou’s whole body was like diamond, impervious to blades and bullets, unscathed by fire.

Liang Yuan’s two claws frenziedly tore at the Sentry Robot’s Scale Armor.

Crack, crack, crack…

The Sentry Robot’s Scale Armor immediately flew in all directions, like a silver sea fish being butchered, its scales constantly ripped off by Liang Yuan, revealing large amounts of electronic components inside, as well as densely packed Superpower Stone!

Boom!

Liang Yuan smashed a claw into the robot’s chest cavity, cold light flashing in his eyes.

“Still not dead?”

Both claws suddenly yanked to the sides!

Rip!

The Sentry Robot was instantly torn cleanly in two. With a crash, a pile of Superpower Stone spilled onto the ground!

In a flash, the Sentry Robot that had still been struggling moments ago suddenly sparked with arcs of electricity, crackling nonstop.

Then it spasmed a few times and went completely limp.

Liang Yuan flicked his hand, slamming the robot onto the ground, then swept his gaze around.

But the Mengya people who had been watching the battle here earlier had already fled without a trace.

Liang Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly, thought for a moment, and opened the Sumeru Space.

“Come out, all of you.”

Inside the Sumeru Space, the Yangshan Patrol Team, Old Ma’s construction department, and the R&D staff from the research department all came out one after another.

“So this is the Floating Island?”

“Eh, is this a base belonging to some other faction?”

“Look, robots!”

“Hiss, they actually have robots?”

“What is this place?”

The Yangshan people who had just walked out of the Sumeru Space saw this base and couldn’t help exclaiming, then started talking all at once.

Liang Yuan spoke, giving orders: “Patrol Team, immediately go on alert. You’re in charge of sweeping the entire base. Once you find enemies, capture them at once. If they resist, kill without mercy.”

“Construction department, survey the terrain immediately and study the buildings here.”

“R&D department, start looking for all research-related data in this base. Anything of research value, preserve it immediately.”

“Yes!”

Everyone nodded and quickly fanned out to act.

Liang Yuan’s figure rose into the air, rapidly ascending, searching for those Mengya Organization members who had fled.

All of a sudden, on the distant apron, a few ships roared to life with a hum.

Then they shot up into the sky, fleeing at full Speed.

Seeing this, Liang Yuan instantly understood they were those Mengya Organization people.

He didn’t waste a word and immediately gave chase.

Just then, a giant eagle suddenly dove out of the sky, swooping down to grab one of the ships.

Boom!

With a violent impact, the giant eagle smashed one side of the ship’s engine to pieces.

The ship didn’t even have time to activate its defensive shield before it broke apart on the spot and howled as it plummeted toward the ground.

The other ships, seeing this, hurried to activate their defensive shields at once.

Buzz, buzz!

The engines roared at high speed, fleeing at full throttle.

Watching this, Liang Yuan let the Golden Fur Hou form burst forth, then let out a thunderous roar at one of the ships!

“Roar—!”

Terrifying sound waves fused with Spiritual Power, sending violent shockwaves surging toward that ship.

The ship’s defensive shield hummed and quivered, blocking Liang Yuan’s [Intimidation] Skill.

Then it sped off toward the distant horizon.

Seeing this, Liang Yuan’s body reverted back to human form, his expression darkening slightly.

“Mr. Liang!”

Tu Long swiftly flew over, the giant eagle turning back into human form, and said, “There are survivors in this ship.”

Upon hearing this, Liang Yuan immediately said, “Hand them over to the Patrol Team. Interrogate them at once.”

“Got it.”

Tu Long nodded, then dragged out a few Mengya Organization members trapped in the ship, put Energy-Sealing Handcuffs on them, and handed them over to the patrol officers.

Liang Yuan’s expression was slightly grim as his thoughts spun.

“The ship’s defensive shield can withstand Thunderstorm Level strikes inside Thundercloud. With the offensive methods I have right now, it’s very hard to break through a shield of that level.”

“Looks like with technology continually advancing, it might very well surpass individual Superpower Users at high Speed.”

Liang Yuan sighed inwardly. This was only natural.

Because the spaceship’s defense shield uses a Rune Array and a large number of Superpower Stone–type energy devices, that’s how such a powerful barrier is formed.

No matter how strong an individual’s Power is, they will still be blocked by a defense shield sustained by countless Rune Arrays and Superpower Stone energy.

Of course, in terms of endurance and maneuverability, the two are definitely not the same.

An individual’s endurance and maneuverability are both far superior to a spaceship’s.

If you keep attacking a spaceship’s defense shield and force its energy to deplete rapidly, sooner or later the ship will fall into a disadvantage once its energy runs out.

But spaceship technology is still constantly developing, so it’s hard to say how it’ll be in the future.

Liang Yuan thought of that Sentry Robot from just now again.

With robots of that level already appearing, if the energy problem can be solved, such robots would simply be the nightmare of all Superpower Users.

However, it was obvious that even Mengya Organization couldn’t mass-produce such robots; they could only be used as strategic weapons, with just one stored in the base.

Liang Yuan pressed down the many thoughts in his heart, turned around, and said to Tu Long, “Take people at once and cooperate with Old Ma, Du Zhijie and the others to quickly rebuild the base.”

“Understood. What about those Mengya Organization people who escaped?” Tu Long couldn’t help asking.

Liang Yuan shook his head slightly. “Ignore them. They’re in a spaceship. Before the ship’s internal energy is exhausted, there’s no way we can catch up.”

“And even if we do catch up, with the level of a spaceship’s defense shield, trying to break it by force would be quite difficult.”

“The most urgent task is for me to first seize control of this Floating Island.”

When Tu Long heard that, he immediately understood that Liang Yuan was going to look for this island’s Heart Core and Brain Core.

Floating Islands and Floating Islands in the other sense are essentially the same thing.

Floating Islands all have a Heart Core and a Brain Core, so this Floating Island definitely has them too.

If he could control the Heart Core and Brain Core, then this Floating Island would truly belong to Liang Yuan in the real sense.

Tu Long immediately said, “Mr. Liang, rest assured, I’ll take care of things here.”

Liang Yuan nodded slightly, then looked around the base and said, “Dismantle and rebuild all the defensive Arrays of this base. Use our own Yangshan Rune Arrays.”

“You’re worried their Array has a backdoor?” Tu Long asked at once.

Liang Yuan said, “They’re familiar with their own Array. If we use their original setup, it’ll be easily targeted.”

“The Heaven-locking Cannon Array may not be focused on defense, but it can effectively counter the attacks of Superpower Users and mutated creatures.”

“Use the Heaven-locking Cannon Array? But with how advanced their robot tech is, I’m worried…” Tu Long couldn’t help saying.

Inside the Heaven-locking Cannon Array, the circulation of Superpower Energy is forbidden; in that situation, what’s compared is the Superpower Users’ raw physical fitness.

At that time, Strength Type and Speed Ability User have the greatest advantage.

But if the enemy is a robot, wouldn’t a robot be even more advantageous inside such an Array?

Liang Yuan, however, shook his head slightly. “No. The internal driving force of those robots is also Superpower Stones as their energy source.”

“Once they enter the Array, they’ll immediately be paralyzed and unable to move.”

“For dealing with those robots, our Heaven-locking Cannon Array actually works even better.”

Only then did Tu Long understand Liang Yuan’s intention, and he hurriedly nodded in agreement.

After that, Liang Yuan quickly slipped underground and began searching for this Floating Island’s Heart Core and Brain Core.

The first thing he went to look for was the Heart Core of this Floating Island.

Compared to the Brain Core, the Heart Core is the key to controlling this island.

“From that fight just now, the other side never manipulated the terrain to target me, which shows the Mengya Organization people haven’t found the Floating Island’s Heart Core.”

“So I still have a chance.”

Liang Yuan’s figure kept sinking, and he soon passed through the soil layer and reached the flesh layer.

This flesh layer couldn’t be entered via Earth Escape, but that didn’t matter; Liang Yuan had the Protein Corrosive Liquid skill, which could massively corrode flesh.

Sizzle~!

As wisps of greenish smoke rose, a smell of burned protein wafted out.

The flesh under his feet corroded rapidly, turning into curls of greenish smoke.

Driven by Liang Yuan’s powerful Superpower, the corrosive liquid was continuously poured into the fleshy soil beneath his feet.

Before long, this spot had been corroded into a deep pit.

About an hour later, a pit nearly a hundred meters deep appeared.

Wind howled from within, and a foul odor kept drifting out of the hole.

Liang Yuan held his breath; he was no stranger to this smell.

This was the gas trapped inside the giant corpse of the Floating Island, where airflow couldn’t circulate and had been pent up for a long time.

Although it had nostrils, a mouth, and other openings to breathe through, compared with the size of the entire giant corpse, those vents were far too small.

So inevitably, a large amount of stench remains inside the body.

The overall oxygen content inside this giant corpse is also extremely low.

If you’re not a Superpower User, it’s very hard to go deep inside.

Liang Yuan leaped and jumped straight into the passage he had corroded.

With the wind howling by his ears, Liang Yuan used Telekinesis to control his body in midair, continuing to descend.

A few breaths later, he had already passed through the hundred-meter-long passage and entered a patch of complete darkness.

Liang Yuan took out an object like a flashlight, with exquisite Runes carved on it.

As Liang Yuan flipped the switch, there was a crisp ‘click’ sound, and a beam of intense light shot out instantly from the front of the flashlight!

The massive light illuminated this space as bright as day, clearly revealing everything around.

What he saw was wrinkled meat walls everywhere, and pieces of flesh and intestines hanging suspended in midair, visible all around.

Most of them, however, were already shriveled, drained of moisture, and even covered in dust, so at a glance they almost looked like stone carvings.

A few kilometers away, there was a huge triangular organ connected to a giant intestine-like pipeline.

A few hundred meters to the right, there was a pile of pale meat blocks, among which were embedded round objects like yellow eggshells.

Liang Yuan scrutinized them carefully, but soon his expression turned helpless.

“This isn’t an ordinary mammal-type creature. Its structure can’t be made sense of at all.”

He felt a bit helpless; this creature didn’t match any life form he knew, and finding its heart would indeed be difficult.

No wonder that, although the Mengya Company people had built quite an extensive setup here, they’d still never managed to find and refine the Heart Core.

Liang Yuan sighed. “Looks like this isn’t something that can be rushed. We’ll have to take it slow.”

He had Protein Corrosive Liquid, allowing him to directly pierce through the giant corpse’s flesh and enter its interior.

If the people from Mengya Company didn’t have this capability, they’d have to honestly start following the blood vessels and search step by step.

What he was doing now basically counted as taking a shortcut.

But even so, it was still difficult for him to search; one could imagine that it would be even more troublesome for the Mengya Company people.
