《Mechanical Sect》 MS - Chapter 1 - Activating base Surrounded by tense trees up to dozens of meters that would take at least 10 people just to surround it and the ground covered with a thick dense layer of rot leaves and small insect. Then blew by the wind the dead leaves of the tree shaking and fly away and with it, the rot gloom smell of the forest. From time to time there is a bursting sound of ROAR in the distance. Fei Heng was careful hiding on top of a tree branch, he sat in there holding two small leave branch hiding behind it with a panicked face. The branch was more than 10 meters high off the ground but did not give him the slightest sense of safety. Just then, there a strange boar with red eyes, nostrils dropping some disgusting thing like liquid, draped in dark scales and spike that look sharper than a knife. After seeing the strange boar passing underneath him, the boar stopped taking a sniff a tree for a while. Then after a while, the boar seems to lose interest in the tree and then walk away. Moments later Fei Heng sighed with relief. He was fortunate to climb the tree fast enough and the boar giving upon him. Fei Heng, male, 25 years old. He used to work part-time at the 24h store. He was returning from work like every day when suddenly he was engulfed by an intensely bright light. When Heng wakes up, he found himself in a virgin forest. Except for his casual clothes, everything around was completely unknown to him. After a while he was still in the tree branch he didn¡ät dare to come down and meet some strange creature again. "Growl~~"At this moment his belly started to play the hunger bell. He knew he had to find something to eat or he would lose his strength to guarantee his survival till he finds a way out of this forest. At this moment he notices a flashing light coming out not far from where he was. The first thing that came to mind was human. Although inside his mind he doubts that any human could survive around where, but it was his only hope for now. Fei Heng after you determining the safety of his surrounding he began slowly sliding down from the tree. Before he gets there the sky already starts to darken, he fastens his step as he didn¡ät want to stay where to find what kind of dangerous creatures like to wander a night. After getting past some tree he could see an oval-shaped object with a golden metallic shine the size of a human in from of him. Suddenly, there was a sound of a breaking twig from behind him. Heng body like if was programmed to turn around at this sound only to see a slight two green round light. He unconsciously raises his both arm to try to stop the unknown thing from approaching him at an astounding speed, making him lose his balance and hitting the oval object. He felt an enormous pain never felt before coming from his arm. He sees his arm destroyed, and where was his hand was now only blood splashing out in almost every direction. Then his field of vision moves only to see a black giant Panther whit a green light contrary to a colour of hope that represents the green eyes of the panther, in fact, the only hope it gave was that one of certain death. There in the midst of blood the unknown oval object, there was a flash of light as the blood of Fei Heng falls on it. Whit that a little red light starts to flash. "Restarting! " "Restarting complete." "Analysing soul fluctuations trace" " Results: lost " " According to rule, Initiate search for a new administrator. " "Begin scanning! " He was in complete terror as he sees that the panther his getting ready for the second try and completely ignore the light and sound behind him. He hastily gets up not want to wait for his death, but before he could completely stand up the panther had taken this opportunity to jump at him again.A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation. "Beep!" "No. 244, Mechanical Civilization base starting to analyze biologic fluid......" "Result: Genes match 93.43% of the basic conditions of inheritance" "According to regulations automatically start inheritance procedure." He completely lost consciousness after the panther jumped at him . and stayed motionless on the ground. Right about when the panther was getting ready to taste his new delicious brown skin meat came an intense light that completely blurs the Panther vision. In shock by the intense light, the panther immediately jumped back away as it searches to get far away as he can from the light and recover his vision. At this time, if some were there they would see the light slowly fading revealing the oval object open, inside there was a size of a baby fist oval translucent crystal. The now oval size of baby fists suddenly flew out like a bullet into the chest of Fei Heng. " Began analyzing Administrator! " "Beep "Result: Administrador in critical state detect" "Request permission to start treatment Cost: 94" "Beep " Administrador unconscious" "According to clause No. 717 began automatically recovery procedure". .... Unknown time after the incident where the black panther lost his easy dinner. "Ah!" at this time Fei Heng had awake. The first thing he did was to look for the Panther, but fortunately, he didn¡ät see any trace of the panther, only then he notices his hand that had been used as an appetizer for the panther now has there like if what it had happened was a dream. At this time, he didn¡ät know what was going on. Before he could theorize this event, came a pain that made him tightly clutching his chest. "Recovery Complete " ~~ "Began body modification! " ¡äWhat happen. did I get poisoned without knowing or I finally lose my mind¡ä Fei Heng mind instantly filled up with series of horrible thought. There was a piercing pain in his entire body, his face became pale, his body starts to spasm and twitch into a ball, his body stood there motionless. There a surge of energy invisible to the naked eyes start travelling through his body changing it entirely, not even a cell is was missed in this process. Then a black nasty substance gradually squeezed out of his body "Body modification completed" "Status: Sucess" " Initiate knowledge transmission! " "AHhh~~"A huge amount of information flock inside Fei Heng head. Then he faints without much pain ............ When Fei Heng opened his eyes he saw a bright moon in the sky and forest filled with silence that seems even the insect didn¡ät dare to make a sound. Dark under the trees, a glint of two green light flash from time to time. Fei Heng secretly hopes that is a small peace-loving animal such as rabbit. But as if the forest did no hear his praying, a few Wolf Howls cut short his last hope. Fei Heng didn¡ät think twice he climbs the tallest tree was close to him than stopping at one of the most top branches that could support his body weight. he didn¡ät dare to go more highest because he could only be sorry if the highest branch could not support his weight and at more than 10 meters high once he falls, the ground would only be his grave. Also, think about the panther coming later to finish in he felt that here is not much safer either. About the oval object, Fei Heng already knows what is. Mechanical Civilization was a civilization control by few, they used to maintain a rule of terror over numerous sentient races in the universe, relying on science and technology to create powerful thing beyond someone normal dreams. In the course of his expansion, they also had many powerful enemies, some didn¡ät even have a chance against them and other powerful enough to rival them. But they met their end when they unknowingly open a portal to the most dangerous place in the entire existence of the universe, the primordial place unleashing creatures beyond nightmares. After millions of years of fighting primordial creatures, they find themselves at the edge of destruction. With the only option left they used an experimental weapon that could itself destroy anything that it passes in its way, matter, anti-matter even energy itself. At the same time, they start a project called Revival, with the hope of reviving the civilization by putting together all their civilization achievement. The weapon was active, then wiping out an entire cluster of galaxy leaving nothing more than void space that even time seems to stand still there. These inheritance are sent far and wide to all side. If the inheritance was encounter by someone with the same life origin as then it will start, and if they fall into the hands of ones that did not meet the basic requirement, it automatically set off. "So human came from space, after all, well the facts thus really show such a thing. "The demise of Mechanical civilization, Fei Heng without any feeling about it, instead he ordered "Activate base! ". MS - Chapter 2 - Start Expansion Along with Fei Heng command, the oval metal object light up a red light, then "buzz! ", With a loud, vibrating sound that trembles the surrounding as it expands pushing down the tree in its way. " ~~~~~~ ", a sci-fi sound resonate from here was a metallic oval now there was a black bright space that completely covered the ground. Suddenly there''s a Roar not far from where he was. He turns around to look and see the Giants Panther jump out of his skin of fear of the unknown oval shape object and run away. The only sound that could be heard was coming from the base as everything around falls in complete silence. "Wow, wow "Fei Heng, even after seems all this he was still having a hard time processing the new world that unfolds before his eyes. He immediately climbs down from the tree, running to the base at a speed that he could not even dream he was capable of. "Open!" According to his new memory, he orders the door to open. This is his now is new home. The interior space isn¡ät big, it could only be considered a shelter. Looking around, actually, most of the space is for the production of mechanical robots. "The base has the basic energy gun for air and ground defences. " "First base activated. Current has 106 units of energy reserves, 500 tons of steel and 100 tons of basic material. Daily production capacity of 50 basic types of machinery. " "Now Able to produce:" "Miner machinery and robot: can collect minerals back to base, with weak protection and no offence. Cost: requires 10 energy units of daily consumptions, 10 tons of basic material and 18 tons of steel. Time 2 hours ". "Basic Energy robot: can collect bioenergy and shipped back to base for conversion, can operate both in the ground, water or air, with weak protection and no offence. Cost: requires energy: 15 units of daily energy consumption, 1500 kg of basic material and 2500 kg of steel. Production time 1 hour" "Basic Robot fight insect: Has strong melee abilities and good speed. Cost: requires energy: 10 units daily energy consumption, 1500 kg of basic material and 4500 kg of steel. Production time 1 hour " "Miniature vigilance insect robot: transfer video image and sound from its surrounding to the base. Cost: requires energy: 0.001 units of daily consumption, 0.1 kg of basic material and 0.1 kg of steel. Production time 10 min " "Basic recon robot, explore mineral, conducting field exploration, no offensive capabilities, weak protection; Cost: requires energy: 1 unit daily energy consumption, 500 kg of basic material and 1150 kg of steel. Production time 1h 30 min " "Solar Umbrella is the most suitable for the solar energy absorption, generate 1 energy unit daily. Cost: requires energy: 0.01 unit daily energy for maintenance, 250 kg of basic material and 50 kg of steel. Production time 30 min" "Building new base requires 1000 units of energy, 4500 tons of steel, 50 tons of basic material. " "Basic energy-matter conversion: convert energy to matter at 1000:1 energy cost varying from material to material Cost: requires energy 10 units daily energy for maintenance, 15000 kg of basic material and 500 kg of steel. Production time 1 hour 30 min " "Advance Base to level 1 requires energy 20000 units and black gold 100 kg. " "~~~" Once inside came a large round of report. Fei Heng starts to process this information. According to the base, robots consume energy to operate, the basic material it refers for example to copper, silicone and other material that it needs to make basic components for the robot and machinery. the steel reserve has still good the only problem was his low energy, only 106 energy units. The base was drifting in space for a long time and it consumes energy to maintain its basic function. For Fei Heng, the most surprising thing was the material reserve inside the base. The first thing that came to mind was some kind of space technology. Because the original size of the base was practically impossible to contain all this material inside and at the same time transformed itself into a gigantic base. "~~" Fei Heng start thought of the most efficient way to start his production. After a while he commands "Make 16 Basic recon robot, 5 Basic Energy robot, 2 Miner machinery and robot, 10 Basic Robot fight insect, 50 Miniature vigilance insect robot and 100 Solar Umbrella" "~~~~" Machinery sound within the resonate as it starts to work.Support the creativity of authors by visiting the original site for this novel and more. Fei Heng wants some recon robot to explore this forest while identifying resources in its way, and the miner machinery and robot are clearly for when he finds some resource that would require mining the Basic Robot fight insect needs to maintain basic security of is a weak robot as he was now inside the base that can guaranty is safety from the danger of the forest that he had a deep experience. First, out is a naturally Miniature vigilance insect robot. Regarding its size is like ants. Dark brown body a pair of long tentacles which is used to detect, transmit and receive information. Smaller ant-like antennae swinging back and forth, like a living thing. "This stuff is at least alloy, how weak it is? " Out of curiosity, Fei Heng reached out a finger pressing against the Ant robotic-like, then there''s a little explosion. Immediately came a sound from the bases: "Recon Robot No XXz8g Ant destroyed. proceed to recovery? " "Well, my dream of an ant robot colony now is gone" Fei Heng release a sigh. "Ant robot have a low costs production, the internal structure is simple without the use of shock absorption, after pressure it internal structure it easy collapses and be destroyed. " Came a report from the base. "Turned out to be so. Recycle! " Fei Heng issued a recovery order. Lose interest in the ant-like robot, Fei Heng attention is in the Basic Robot fight insect. Finally, after waiting for a while the side of the base open revealing what seems to resemble a spider, but with a bit more style, overall is a black shiny shell that looks like to be indestructible, with teeth that look powerful and sharp like pliers it gave of killing weapon vibe and way bigger than the ant robot. "jump! " Fei Heng order the robot. "Ka! "Basic Robot fight insect legs slightly bent then jumping around 1 meters height. "Cut the tree in front! "A dozens of meters high tree collapse causing a big noise in the middle of the night. "Quack quack ... ..." Fei Heng excitedly came out of the base, he reaches his hand out and touches the Basic Robot fight insect body. He felt a very cold metal feeling coming from it and compared to the ant robot it didn¡ät break. He was very satisfied. "This is great! " Watching the strong robot, Fei Heng after testing his power he commands it "Protect here and eliminate all the enemy that dares to come near the base! " It was late at night and obviously not a good time to be outside in this forest. There are so many dangers out there. Thought here, Fei Heng patted his belly that seems it couldn¡ät wait for food: "Belly, Tomorrow gonna fill you with delicious black panther meat! " It was clear that the thing that he most hates now is the black panther. The pain and despair he had to suffer that even let him faint in front of the Panther. Then he enters the base enduring the hunger and goes to sleep. While he was sleeping ignoring the mechanical sound there was another sound "Just wait I definitely gonna ....make you pay for it Panther, and make a barbecue out of you... hahaha". Waking up. Fei Heng probably had the best dream he ever had in his life. Through the windows of the base, he could see the sunlight that was barely passing through the tree branch and leaves. Around was lined up on the ground a couple of black guys. The most shocking was a five or seven meters in height, Seventeen meters long, nearly 11 meters wide and the wheel alone there was four or five meters high. This was the 2 Miner machinery and robot placed outside. This definitely would rival the biggest machine on Earth. This big machine could load no less than 19 or 20 tons of material. And it''s the strongest arm shovels, there are no doubts it can dig up anything in from it. Beside the Miner machinery, there is 16 Basic recon robot, black in color the same as the spider-like robot, the recon robot was around the size of similar to a helicopter but instead of propeller it had something that resembles an insect wing, with the size of a small Smart. With a look of extremely sophisticated and beautiful. The Basic Energy robot was the size of an SUV car with 8 arms coming out of it. This robot can that any biological material and convert it into energy. At this time there''s a sound coming from the base: "Select a place to install solar Solar Umbrella" A solar umbrella is basically a solar panel with the ability to change shape so it could best use of the solar energy. the downside of it is that it needs a lot of space to be set up. "Send half of the recon robot south to find the best possible terrain ". Then 8 of the recon robot start to shake their wing-like thing flying south. The reason he just chooses the south was that to the north and east he could see mountains height enough that seems like they are holding the sky to not fall. Then he decides to send 4 to the north to probe and send two bout east and west to explore too. The next thing he turns his attention to was the huge tree that surrounds his base. " Clean everything in a radius of 1 km " Although the size of the base doesn¡ät seem to lose to the tree interns on height. But he needs a lot of space to construct its auxiliary base function. Although the base could produce everything alone bu its efficiency would be compromised. " And if you find any panther bring it alive at all cost" and of course how could he forget the black panther. So Fei Heng began the mass destruction and his quest for revenge. The spider-like robot starts to chop down the trees and everything else it could and behind it was the Basic Energy robot scooping everything inside something that resembles a mouth. The strange thing was that it seems to have an infinite space inside but he knew that every biological matter that enters in becoming energy and sping out only dust at the end. In addition to the trees and another plant, the most abundant resources in the forest are animals, of course, a lot of then was insect and other small creatures but all dumped into the energy furnace. Under the robot hard work, he watched the energy begins to grow. "58 units of energy collect" "104 units of energy collect" "73 units of energy collect" "~~" After the basic energy robot connects to the base came lots of reports of energy added. Although he could save the forest and use the solar umbrella, but the energy absorption was low and the fast way he finds has to consume the surrounding forest till he got a better option. Fei Heng knew if there any environmentalists around they would form a lot of protests. But he didn¡ät care for now because he knew that there some terraforming technology that he would have access to later and furthermore he did not know where that he is hell is this place, even if the environment is destroyed then what? Then suddenly came a mechanical voice from the base. "Recon Robot XX-d2w destroyed " at the same time there an image being played in what seems to be a virtual monitor. A giant Pterosaurs-like fly straight to the robot instantly making it become nothing more than scrap metal. MS - Chapter 3 - Tough Time Fei Heng sat depressed inside the base, he was looking at the reports coming, all his recon robot that he sent north was destroyed one after another. After a while, he shifts his attention to another screen. "Basic Air Combat Robot: Strong melee abilities and good speed. Cost: requires energy: 30 units daily energy consumption, 450 kg of basic material and 2450 kg of steel. Production time 1 hour" "Basic Range Air Combat Robot: Strong range abilities and good speed. Main weapon: Vulcan cannons, 100 energy per shot Cost: requires energy: 30 units daily energy consumption, 450 kg of basic material and 2450 kg of steel. Production time 1 hours" He hadn''t give it much attention at that time but now. He didn¡ät expect that we would meet a fiery air animal so soon, but at is initial plannig his thought of the fierceness of this place hadn¡ät passed the black panther mark wet. Again remembering the panther his mood worsens. "What if I directly go and eliminate them". He had an impulse to directly enter a fight with this pterosaur-like animal but restrain himself, at least for now. He didn¡ät know if this mountain really had any mineral, or else he would just enter into a pointless battle. This made him thought a lot about expanding north and in the end, he put it on hold as this mountain was nearly 250 km from where he is now. Then he shifts his attention to the south exploration. The recon robot he sends south move much slower comparing to thus sent north. This is because the recon robot sent south would conduct a more advanced analysis over the terrain in its course. Now all his combat units are operational, and he is starting to increase his energy reserve, so he decides to define a production plan. "Set Air Combat unit production to 1:10 of fight insect and constant production of fight robot according to weekly sustainable energy consumption and constantly production of Solar Umbrella. " " Set other units to production on-demand" "~~" Fei Heng quickly changes his focus to a more important thing right now, his empty belly problem, he was starving and he could not hold it much more. Then he sends 3 of his fight robot to go hunt for something he could eat. After a while, he could see the two spider-like fight robot coming back from within the forest. He licked his lips hoping to be a black panther. When the fight robot bust out of the forest he could see a bloodied body of a boar-like animal dangling from the arm of one robot. "kkk... well done "Fei Heng was excited although it wasn¡ät a panther he thinks it''s better than something like a wolf or so. "Base make a grill and collecting some pile of dry wood. "Fei Heng gave the order, some robot insect to act rapidly, like claws with pliers picking up some sticks on the ground around, it was then held up in a pile. At the same time came a sound from the base as a grill with a wheel walkout from the base. He prepares everything with a light speed as his belly was dying for some food. As he was about to grill the meat came a fiery roar of large creatures, Fei Heng immediately turns around to look, e could see a creature like a big dinosaurs head, to be more exactly like a snakehead with a very tiny horn resembling an arrow. "What that fuck..." Two small eyes inspect their surroundings from their thin sockets. A bony nose rests below, but its mouth below that takes all the attention. It now barely open reveals rows upon rows of teeth and a flat tongue. Narrow bent ears sit on each side of its huge, bony head, which itself is covered in coarse-scale and has two bony spikes protruding from the top. Its long slender body is hunched over. Two broad sword-like arms dangle at its sides and end in broad hands with small fingers, of which it has 12 in total. Its legs are short and stand straight, each ending in long feet. Its body is covered in a long thick black scale that clearly shows that it''s tough and its shoulders are narrower than its pelvis, from which a spiked tail sways back and forth. Fei Heng face was constantly getting worse as he watches the creature revealing its body. The. When it was completely out of the forest cover with its body reaching about 3-meter height. ROAR!!" Then the beast releases a deafening roar leaping into the first Basic Robot fight insect it was in front of him. In an instant, its claws pierce through the fight Robot body "Boom!!" "Basic Robot fight insect XX-f3s destroyed " a mechanical voice coming from the base broke Fei Heng from the initial shock at seeing such a creature that could only crawl out of the nightmare in from of his eyes "ROAR!!". "Attack all out. " Fei Heng voice sounds rust and in an urgent manner after once more wearing the beast deafening roar. After his voice ends the ground starts to tremble a bit as 27 fighting robots. The first robot to get near the creature leaps into to the air and stretching its arm so it could cause more damage to the creature. The moment the robot claw reach the creature scale it only scratches it a bit and its claw bending to the point of broking. Then the creature again raises its claws piercing the robot that hit him just now. Again the creature claws easily pierce through the robot body. "Boom!!" It was clear from the first creature attack and the robot attack just now in what direction the fight will turn. The fight progresses this manner after 4 or 7 robots was down and Fei Heng was clearly seeing that his robot attack will not work and he needs to do something before the thing turns too ugly. Fei Heng eyes scan the creature very carefully, then he sees the moments the creature raise its claws there is a small part below its arm joint where there''s no scale there and clearly seem soft. "Attack its arm joint... Attack its arm joint..." Fei Heng voice sounds a bit calmer now. He had a bit of time to calm himself after the surprising appearance of the creature. One of the robots locate at it back start to aim for the arm joint instead of its scales another robots leaps again straight out to attack raising its claw and aiming at the creature but the attack didn''t have any effect on the creature. The creature raises its arm again to destroy the robot but this moment there''s a little flash o light and then there''s a splash of viscous dark red blood. It''s was clear that the creature arm was just cut off now by one of the robotsIf you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. "ROAR" This time this roar didn''t seem deafening instead seems more like a painful one. "Ha ha ha ha ..." Fei Heng starts to laugh but then he felt a deep dread coming from deep inside his soul. The eyes of the creature now seem more unnatural and more vicious. There is a cloud of black smoke coming out around the creature body it starts to expand very fast and in an instant, the robots body could clearly see marks of erosion. Inside the smoke, there''s a flash of light moving at an incredible speed, and each time the light move there''s an explosion followed by it after. "S**t. F***ing s**t... Holy S**t." Fei Heng face was clearly transforming according to his words. His little moment of joy is now completely transforming into a nightmare. It clearly that before the creature was not fighting seriously as it didn''t felt threatened before even by the number of robots. "Basic Robot fight insect XX-f9e destroyed " the base mechanical voice constantly reporting the downfall of the robots. Fei Heng now is thinking about a way to defeat the creature before it finishes playing with the robots. The Mechanical Civilization has a lot of powerful weapons that could vaporize this creature in an instant but he didn''t have any now, as it requires rare material and lots of energy. "Ah. How could I forget it" Fei Heng now just remember probably the only thing that could solve this creature problem? "Prepare the base main cannon and shot immediately" Fei Heng shot his thought as fast he could think it. Outside on top of the base, the biggest cannon start to move and aim at the creature. At the tip of the cannon, there''s is a little blue light that is constantly growing. " fiissSSS" A glowing ball of light was shot at an incredible speed that could not even be accompanied by the eyes. The creature a this moment suddenly stop he felt a life treating danger, but before it could identify the danger or try anything to preserve his life.The creature body was hit by the cannon shot, the moment it hit the creature body there was an explosion causing it to destroy almost half of the creature. The creature body now looks more like a rag doll than a creature ta would torment someone dreams, it body lay there complete immovable in his eyes could still be seeing the ferocity it had as it didn''t have time to even realizing what happened. "~~~~~~" " 13 Basic Robot fight insect was destroyed and 7 need repair...1000 energy consumption from the main cannon..." the base mechanical voice constantly reporting the battle logs. Fei Heng fear has completely disappeared from his heart, after calming down he orders to clean the creature and the destroyed robot so he could recycle it and repair thus that need. He sat inside the base, in his hand was holding a crystal-like object. "So this is a crystalize energy" Fei Heng murmur to himself. Accordingly, to the base, there is some special region in the universe where there is a special energy. This energy could alter an organism and even minerals in countless way and also there is a different type of this special energy as each one of them had their one peculiarity. "This explains the creature tough body and the strange black smoke that came out of it". This crystallized energy came from the creature. After he had died and its body was transformed into 3000 unit of energy and Fei Heng was more than happy about it even forgetting the cost of firing the main cannon. "Base what use does a have for this" Fei Heng ask curiously. "Could be direct transform in 40000 energy" "Could be used as an energy field blast "(Note: similar to a mini nuclear bomb) "Could be used as energy heart- require base at level 3" "Could be used as energy brain- require base at level 5" "...." The base keeps listing lots o thing that could be used with this crystallized energy. But now his mind shifts between directly consuming it or making an energy field blast. "Nah. Let it be transformed into energy." Although the energy field blast seems to be too tempting, but 40 shot sound better than one and if he finds a lot of creature like the one he just met. "Wait" Fei Heng changes his mind the moment he remembers that he clearly didn''t know all the danger in this forest or even this new world. "It better to have something for unsuspect visitors like the last one". "~~~~~~" "Expand in accordance with the new plan" "Plan set. Begining operation" the base voice sound and outdoor 4 recon robot take off. In Fei Heng new plan he decides to expand to south and southeast as this is the direction that he could see less trace of any wild beast like the creature he last met as this is completely the opposite direction of that beast appearance, and he set the recon robot to be alert and notify him of anything that could be a treat. Although this expansion in that direction didn''t guaranty that he could meet any beast but it was the best he could come with right now. At this moment his fight units have been increased to 19 fight robot, 10 recon robot, two mineral recovery vehicle and a new unit. "Basic Range Combat Robot V2: Strong range abilities and slow. Main weapon: Blast cannons, 700 energy per shot Cost: requires energy 300 units daily energy consumption, 7500 kg of basic material and 3450 kg of steel. Production time 4 hours" The Range Combat Robot had a body like the fighting robot (a spider-like body) but the difference between his larger body than the fighting robot and the big cannon of approximate 2 meters on top of it. Fei Heng decides to make only one of it was the cost of it would make him go bankrupt in a matter of seconds, a least for now. Of course, possibly because of the abundance of energies here, where the animal seems significantly much more sturdy than on Earth. "~~~~~" Fei Heng sat inside the base looking at the screen. "Some shit dog actually dares to pest me "Fei Heng then send a command to attack. He encounters this group of wolves when his base was expanding southeast. At the first, he thought it gonna be like the strange creature but they are more like to be the creature snack With the command, the 7 fight robot immediately pounced like a lightning. The two wolves didn''t know what''s what happens they could only feel something stabbed, then followed by pliers with "click" sound the wolf waist was cut. "Wow ... ..." 20 more wolves are surrounding the fighting robot all growling, showing teeth and disgusting saliva dripping to the ground. if there was a human it would probably die just by been surround. Fight Robot will certainly not feel this way, don''t say wolf group, even if it was surrounded by a group of monsters, they wouldn''t feel anything. "It seems you came prepared! " Fei Heng thought. "Kaka! " to show off Giant black spider-like fight robot waving their claws and pincers, watching this is truly awe-inspiring. "ROAR," The Wolf growling provocatively enough. Regardless of speed, defence or offence, fight robot are significantly higher than the wolves with their powerful and sharp front teeth without any resistance at all. A collision, fight robot ruthlessly cutting wolf''s body with blood splashing everywhere. The wolfs, although the number are dominant but was soon killed with seven or eight left, and fight robot no loss at all. The rest of the wolf not waiting to be surrounded they decide to run. "Don''t chase! "Fei Heng orders. He orders to not chase because he didn''t know what he could probably find in there "Base set a task to clean the fight ground and collect the wolf''s body " The dead body of the wolf could be turned into energy, but the thick and deep bloodstains on the ground will certainly attract powerful predators. After such an episode with the strange creature, Fei Heng was more aware of the danger and cruelty of the law of the jungle. Because if the fighting robot was strong enough, then he could only hope for divine intervention. In a blink of eyes as already evening. 34 fight robot, 150 Miniature vigilance insect robot, 20 recon robot, 3 Air Combat robot, Miner machinery and robot and a Range Combat Robot. Now main base energy reserves had reached 6000 units, which Fei Heng was very happy with. "All the robot back to the main base, suspended operations, set defence operation and destroy all creatures that get near the base." "The main production base continued in accordance with the established scale. " After Fei Heng issued the command, he ate some raw meat with a frown face and enter the main base to sleep. The night passed without accident, woke up the next day, he found on the ground in front of a row of fight robot and other robots, numbering more than 200. "Report. Recon robot has discovered a mine. "The main base reports. "Oh, really? Where? "Fei Heng urgently asks, looking at the giant miner machine. He was eager to start using it and praying that the mine is not too far away. " In the Southeast, 62.24 km away. " The main base report. "Continued development in the southeast! "He didn''t think too much and slightly hesitating, he ordered anyway With the increase of resource, he could expand without much worried and far wider. Listen to commands, all robot starts to move southeast, and the forest development is automatically divided into two parts, the left half to protect the main base, half with the pioneering force of mechanical insects, and removing obstacles encountered. MS - Chapter 4 - Humans Traces Although the mines are in close proximity southeast, but he didn''t know the dangers awaiting in his way. Fei Heng is determined to get to the mines, he starts to consider it crucial to gather resources and expand the faster possible. But he didn''t want to risk all at one time so he made a plan to advance stead and fast through the forest avoiding the most danger he could. The forest is very rich in species, but in the face of the mechanical robot, it was like strolling to the zoo rather than walk a danger forest as most of its species are sent to the furnace for energy conversation. "~~~~" Dozens of fight robot constantly brandishing sharp claws at dozens of meters long serpent. In instants it body was slash into pieces. All of the sudden, out of nowhere, a huge gale of wind started to blow, throwing around small rocks and even some of the small plants were pulled out of the ground. "AHWOOOO..." A terrifying howl was heard. It seemed to be only a couple hundred meters away. There is a sound of branches breaking. Shortly after, a wolf beast, the size of a cow, suddenly appeared. It did not have any hair covering its body, but, instead, was covered with black scales, which seemed metallic. It had a long tail that looks like a whip, the hook at the end resembles an arrowhead and had a black shine to it, which clearly shows deadly poisonous. It was clear that anyone would be died after getting hit by that tail . The wolf was clearly making a provocation to the fight robots. In a split of a second, it dashes forward at an incredible speed almost impossible to persive. Get close to one of the robots the wolf aim its tail directly to the centre of the robot body in front of him. The force of the tail wasn''t intending to pierce through the robot body intended only to scratch it. Robots don''t fear of poison. Seeing it attack lose their effect the wolf open it month revealing teeth capable of piercing even the hards metal jumping at the robot. In an instant, the arm of the fighting robot got instantly turn to scrap turning unusable. The powerful fight robot in front of the wolf was like a fragile toy All of suddenly the wolf felt a great dread coming, but he could not pinpoint it origin as all he could see was the fighting robot that he could destroy easily. But the wolf didn''t want to risk so he was getting ready to run and analyze the situation better. But he could not mark the best location for the run because all the dozen of fight robot flutter around the wolf not showing it a place for it to run. Then out of nowhere a blue flash hit the wolf back instantly destroying a part of its body. Although the powerful attack the wolf was still alive but was not for long as a dozen robot brandishing sharp claws at the wolf. In instants its body was turning in little pieces of meat. But amidst of the mess there as a shining crystal visible. "~~~~~~" Inside the main base, Fei Heng was looking at the screen and he just finishes watching the fight between the wolf and his robot. It had been 3 days since he starts traveling to the mines. Now he has 157 fight robot, 250 prospecting insect robot, 70 recon robot, 14 Air Combat robot, 3 Miner machinery and robot and 13 Range Combat Robot. Now main base energy reserves had reached 28000 energy units. Although he had quite an arm but the main base resource was almost completely dry. "Sigh" Fei Heng battle like this happen quite a lot along the way to the mines and fight after fight he start to develop a better strategy to brings down the beast the fast way possible, but, the more he fight, the faster his fighting robots destroyed. "Bring the crystallize energy to the base" "Convert crystallize energy to 20000 unity of energy" after the crystallize energy reach the main base there was a mechanical sound. " No" Fei Heng after receiving the crystallize energy, he put it together in a container with 18 others. Fei Heng decides not to directly use the crystallize energy because of this. "The crystallize energy can be used as a primary power source and can be installed on any unit, allowing units the to have an evolutionary capability and no longer restrict to the main base class. Requirement: a crystallize energy and 10 kg of gold essence. Basic requirement: Main base level one ". The mechanical fight robot and other units can evolve again, but usually after the base re-engineering. Gold essence is something Fei Heng never heard of and don''t even know if exist around here.This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source. "~~~~~" Fei Heng was completely shocked when the picture of mine was sent back He saw a set of wooden houses, although different style from what he knows, but could tell at a glance that is used to living. There were several mine entrance. All in all, this is a sign of human activity. "Human? There are humans on the planet?" "Haha! At least not surround by beast anymore" " Quickly distributed and search to see whether humans! " Fei Heng eagerly sent the robot to immediately explore the mine but the moment the robot enter the mine. When the image was sent back. Currently, inside the mine, the only thing that can be found was a sign of intelligence activities but is not necessarily a human. Fei Heng heart suddenly was beating fast. In case it is was the aliens, wouldn''t it be bad? Fei Heng''s heart began to struggle again. He thought that as if the dangerous beast wasn''t enough now he would have to deal with dangerous intelligent life. "Stop! First I need to confirm before taking any conclusion" He halts his imagination because first, he needs to confirm it. "But even if there''s human how they survived in this world" This is a question that Fei Heng didn''t want an answer so soon. Fei Heng watched the mine packed full of hundreds of more than a meter long centipede and what seems to be a gigantic mouse of approximately the size of a dog. The size of the cave there was possible to around 8 people to walk side-by-side with no problem and there were a lot of crisscross caves completely without a pattern, like a vast underground labyrinth. Just to clean up the mine it will be struggling and who can guarantee that the deeper he will not find something worse. At that time, there was a little whilst, immediately there a fierce giant centipede standing half a body up with a "zhe zhe" voice. "Kill them! "Fei Heng got a chill from seeing the giant centipede standing up. "Kaka! "fight robot immediately waved big iron pincers rushing up. Claws flick, making the more than a meter-long centipede chopped in two. "Clean all the mine! "Fei Heng order After the fighting robot receiving the order, there was a massacre. Smaller centipedes and the mouse fighting is not good. Just around 30 minutes all the mine devote of any life. After all the mines were cleared and Fei Heng determines there''s no harmful monster, Fei Heng in a group of fighting robot he enters the mine. Looking at the skull at his foot, he felt a sense of fear. Seen human bones at his foot was the first time for him. Under pressure inside, he leaned over to pick up a bone. "HA HA, look at this limb and skulls, it is clearly human! " Next to these bones, there some torn pieces of linen and a few pieces of iron that were trampled into the dirt that was mixed with its surrounding environment, and if not come here it was really hard to see it. "The native science and technology level is still very low on this planet! "Look at the rough iron and linen pieces, Fei Heng was a little pleased. This planet''s indigenous scientific and technological level is lower so he can rely on his base to have an advantage. "In any case, they must have developed their own strength, this place requires strength to stand firmly and develop. Because without strength humans would not pass of food for the beast in this world and develop basic mining like this" Fei Heng thinks so, and he is determined to continue the search for traces of human and making an efforts to develop his strength. Otherwise, he would not feel safe even among the human here. "~~~~~" The miner machinery and robot start to work. According to the analysis, the mine mainly composed of iron, leads and some basic ore that can be used for refining steel. As for the reserves according to detection there a total of more than 30 billion tons, that is also associated with other minerals. Fei Heng in the short term will not have to worry about ordinary metals anymore. "~~~~" "Building new base requires 10000 units of energy, 450 tons of steel, 50 tons of basic material. Time 24h During production the base will stop the production of all other classes. Are you sure to produce Al-Qaida now? "The main base of mechanical voice asked." After 4 days of mining, Fei Heng had enough resources to build a new base. "Starting production! "Fei Heng did not hesitate. Although this will delay production for 24 hours and more than 100 units will be delayed, but with the base, productivity increases 1 time and in this place, the survival factors also increase 1 time and this is a big deal. "~~~~" The next day, Fei Heng is looking at something like he when he activated the main base. "1st base, activate! " "--" With the command of Fei Heng, then there a soft sound, and suffused with a glow, followed by "buzz! " With a suspension," giggle giggle ... ... ", a sci-fi-paint black bright Rotunda. The whole process is exactly like the main base to activate the process. Also even from the outside could not distinguish main base and the 1st base difference. "1st bases, energy reserves 0, basic resources reserves 0, synthetic metals reserves 0; capacity 150 basic units a day. " "With certain ground and air defence capabilities. " "~~~~" Next, Fei Heng''s bases entered a virtuous cycle of production, the main base to manufacture more base and with the increase of every base the speed of production also increase and practically there was an explosion in his production. And with the increasing number of fight robot and minerals engineering, gathering resources became faster and faster. Other than consumption for production, the main base resources stocks are increasing. Twenty days later, the number of bases had reach 24 and every day 2,000 mechanical unit was born all this in a radius of 60 km into his territory. Now he has 3400 fight robot, 536 prospecting insect robot, 700 recon robot, 360 Air Combat robot, 738 Miner machinery and robot and 130 Range Combat Robot V2. Fei Heng armies had begun to take shape he divided them into 4 groups, and expand in almost all direction. This beast forest becomes completely havoc, where it really can be called complete devastation, all the creatures--including grass and insect, were take into the energy converter. A full black red, covered in scales boar running, at its back there a group of black shell spider-like a robot with their eight legs in an instant they reach the boar brandished one of the pliers, that strange boar in an instant fell to the ground. Others robot rush, to the board on the ground, in a matter of time the creature howling grew weaker. Moments later, a mechanical robot takes the dead boar to the nearest energy converter. Scenes like this everywhere. MS - Chapter 5 - First Contact In the middle of the dense forest, there is a clear sound of metal clashing. A young man was quick to draw out his sword that just got stuck there on the tree. He held the blade in the perfect, undaunted horizon, always levelled with the nose. He had stalled the man¡¯s strike but his arm and blade shivered under the brutality of his compelling strength. ¡°Yan Xiang did you not see that this is the end for you¡± The man oposity to the young man spoke, at the same time the sword in his hand flashed as he brought it over his head and with a hummed and low swift tune he flash it down. The Yan Xiang expression didn¡¯t change. He gave a cold snort. He slapped a little purse and flicked his sleeve. Then a blue jade appears and then whizzed outward. ¡°BOOM!¡± Yan Xiang let out a small shout of pain. Amidst the thunderous roar, he spat out a mouthful of blood and yet, his body did not stop and shot away with an incredible speed that would put all the professional runner to shame. Behind him, the effects of the attack dissipated, and the man had no choice but to retreat a few steps, he was covered in dirt and his faces filled with disbelief. ¡°Dammit.!¡± Then with blood-curdling shrieks, he spoke. ¡° How many does he actually have?¡± He had corner and attacked the younger many time but the younger had still managed to escape, which he found hard to accept. Now, he wanted even more than ever to slay him. ¡°You still won¡¯t accept death!¡± grinned one of them hideously, his murderous intent filling the air. Then he sucked in a breath and didn¡¯t hesitate in using all of the speed he could master and race in pursuit again, unwilling to let Yan Xiang go. Time gradually passed by, and soon four hours had passed. Yan Xiang continued forward, but the distance between him and from his pursuers was getting shorter. Then Yan Xiang caught sight of the Demonic forest, his eyes quivered. The forest gave off a ghostly, cold air as if it were filled with sinister gloom. But he couldn¡¯t worry too much about that right now. Without hesitation, he shot into the Demonic forest. ¡°There no place for you to run! This time, you will die for sure!¡± The man increased his speed, entering the Demonic forest. His face was grim at this point. He secretly feared Demonic forest and yet, he continued forward. The Demonic forest is completely different from any of the other forest. The trees of the forest stretched up toward the heavens. And the reason this place was called a demonic forest was that the forest seemed to be filled with wild Demonic energy. "~~~~~~~" Through the 6 monitoring insect robot streaming back to the images, Fei Heng was seen this from the very moment they start the fight outside the forest. Then he shifts his attention to another screen. He made a thoughtful face "Do I give them a hand? "Fei Heng hesitated. "Hmm let wait for a better scene" Fei Heng said stroking his chin. Then he said in an excited voice. "Prepare to intercept then " "~~~~~~~" Not long after entering the mountain, Yan Xiang heard a deep roar. After enough time passed, a low roar suddenly sounded out, seeming to cover half of the forest. Like a dark wind, a giant wolf came toward him, howling. The wolf has almost 5 meters in height, with long snake-like tails and was covered with thin fur and bright red eyes which shone with killing intent. Yan Xiang eyes glittered, he didn''t expect to encounter a Demonic beast worst is that this was a high-level one the Poison Wind Wolf. In midst of the pursuit, it would have been no big deal, but now he was facing a crisis. Then the Demonic wolves looked at him threateningly. That, not to mention the rest of the smaller Demonic wolves. Further behind when the man appeared and he saw the pack of Demonic wolves, his expressions change dramatically. Yan Xiang waved his hand, and a massive, roaring Flame Serpents shot down toward the pack of Demonic wolves. Yan Xiang hesitated but not much and was ready to run for his life. He knew that this attack would not have an effect besides buying him some time. He moved quickly, but the Demonic wolves moved even faster. This narrative has been purloined without the author''s approval. Report any appearances on Amazon.The Demonic wolves were now less than a step from Yan Xiang, then the wolf opens its mouth clearly showing that here would be the resting place of Yan Xiang. " fiissSSS" ¡°BOOM!¡± Then an explosion thundered out, and several nearby trees exploded into dust. Then a miserable shriek poured out from the mouth of the wolves and blood poured out from its chest as if it had been stabbed. The Wolf did not have much time to think about what just happen. " fiissSSS" Again there was the same explosion thundered out. This it was direct to the rest of the wolf pack. There Wolf shrill cries and calls for another fellow help. Yan Xiang tilt his head to see what had happened, then his face was frozen completely. In front of him lay a massive wolf with his chest destroyed, but what most shocked him was that not far behind the rest of the wolf pack was treated like it was wood and is been chopped for making firewood. "What!!..." Moreover, wolves were acting as if seen their worst nightmare and they began to retreat leaving their fellow behind, Yan Xiang heart skips a bit when his eyes set on a spider-like with a black shiny shell with a touch of metallic and teeth that look powerful and sharp like pliers. The Bigs insect seems to have no intention of attacking. But when he noted he was already surrounded, although the big insect wasn''t made any move this makes his heart more disturbing. Because they stood unmoved as if waiting for orders. The man pursuing Yan Xiang had just wake up from his shock he had analysed the situation and had come to the conclusion that it was best for to make a run for it. Actually, the thing that convinced him for a run was how much of the mechanical robot he sees. There around more than 100 robots including some of them in the air " fiissSSS" Not long after the man starts dash forward a blue light shot forward landing in a tree just before the man. Then several nearby trees exploded into bits as dirt completely block the man run. But how could Fei Heng let him run after all the work he had. A small-time passed one of the robots that were closest to Yan Xiang raise its arm. Then Yan Xiang face completely fell to the ground was the see the robot signalizing him to follow as the robot starts to move forward. "~~~~~" Yan Xiang and the man that was in the middle of a plaza. The plaza was gigantic was one in its centre could not see its end nor its beginning. Yan Xiang was completely perplexed it was clearly for him that this was not a demonic beast but this didn''t make him feel more relaxed it was completely the opposite. His back starts to sweat like never before because for him only people with a high realm of cultivation could possibly have this arm of puppets. Because in front of him there are around thousand of puppets including some in the skies and some, even more, in the distance there was a clear blue light from time to time. Yan Xiang felt a dread from this light as he clearly recognizes this light has been the cause of a wolf massacre. Yan Xiang start to think to himself ''Well, having so many puppets. This clearly shows that he didn''t want to kill us or else he would have done it at that time...'' '' At least for now''. Yan Xiang end is though. He raises his head to look at a distance not so far away from the center of the plaza, Yan Xiang could see a man sat on top of a mechanical robot. The man wore an odd set of clothes his eyes were constantly flash with a sign of a different gaze: sometimes he would reveal curiosity, sometimes it would reveal excitement, but it would often reveal an unknown gaze. This man was none other than Fei Heng. The first contact with humans in this world, Fei Heng must, of course, ensure his own safety first. And that was why he had all this robot around the plaza. "Thanks for senior rescue! My name is Yan Xiang! " Yan Xiang talk was he made a bow to accompany his words. Although Yan Xiang voice sounds weak but it reveals calm and filled with respect and appreciation. The man seen Yan Xiang take the lead he hastily makes a bow and speaks. "Thanks for prestige senior rescue! My name is Yan Huo" " Without senior assistance, I didn''t know what would have been of my life " Yan Huo talk again to look even more gratified than Yan Xiang. Fei Heng only looks at them and gave a nod with his head. But after the two man word what only followed was silence. They didn''t know what Fei Heng was thinking ''To contact people on this planet in such a way.'' Fei Heng constantly thinking to himself. Looking like he had completely ignored the two-man words. ''What to do now?.... How not to look soo Alien....''. He was getting stressed from too much thinking. After a while of thinking, he decided to not talk much and get the much information he can. ''Beep! Langue simulation over. Initiate langue transference?'' A mechanical voice sound in Fei Heng. Fei Heng could communicate with the base directly in his mind that was thanks to the crystal he assimilated when he first came. but he felt strange the first time he try to talk to the base through his mind and for him to talk like that make him sound crazy. ''Initiate'' The reason Fei Heng didn''t talk yet was that he was waiting for the base to end the langue reconstruction base on the little information of langue from these two. Although the base IA didn''t have wisdom and its own will but its capacity to analyze was no comparison. The first thing he did was to hear the replay of what just these two people said. After hearing he turn his eyes to look at the two people still standing in front of him "You We,lome". "My nane is Fe...i H.eng. The Ruker af h;ere " The two men after wearing the Fei Heng speak they a small shock but their face was I still with a mask of someone bowing to the Emperor. The image of a magnificent person that they had of Fei Heng was shredder a bit. That was because the way Fei Heng talk was like someone that barely had star learn to speak. " Wh,o are yo,u pio,pli? W.hat ar.e you gus are d.ing h,ere? " Fei Heng asked with his almost incomprehensible word. Although he knew the word and how to make correctly phrases and even sounds of each word but he still felt that the way he was speaking was wrong. That was because still need to train more his muscle before he could sound correctly. And he was not caring much though because he knew that was just a matter of training. Although the words were badly spoken but the meaning could still be understood. Yan Huo take the lead this time "Honourable Senior I''m the first son of the current master of Yan clan." He pauses to see if he could he any reaction from Fei Heng. He did that because the Yan clan used to be one of the middle-rank clan of Southern River Domain. ''So there are clan and where is the Southern River Domain'' Fei Heng was extracting as much information he could. Yan Huo after seen that Fei Heng did not give much attention when said his clan name e continue "I was chasing this theft that stole your clan most precious treasure " When Yan Huo said treasure he put an enface to the word. MS - Chapter 6 - Treasure When Fei Heng heard the word treasure he unconsciously turns his head to face Yan Xiang. He got curious about what could probably make one person chase another person even to the confines of hell and at the same time he was anxious to see this treasure. Yan Xiang had expected something along this line from Yan Hou. It was clear that the first one to give this person a good impression and try to benefit from it. The mind of Yan Xiang was working fast as it could to come with the right word for in this situation. "Estimate senior I didn''t steal anything... I just take what was promised to me" Yan Xiang said the last word flow was it just came into mind. "Promise my Di*..." Yan Hou almost curses out loud. He stops for a bit to calm down. "Who could probably promise all the thing you stole," Yan Hou said now with a calmer voice but with a hint of anger on his face. "What do you know? " Yan Xiang said as he made a pity face to Yan Hou "It was the Yan patriarch himself that promise me," He said as if mocking Yan Hou "The patriarch himself said that if I broke through the Refining stage before age of 15 I could pick out any treasure I want" Yan Xiang words were spoken like if it could not be denied. "I think that Yan Hou would not doubt the words of a Core Formation," Yan Xiang said as he takes peek at Fei Heng. At the same time, the last words came out of Yan Xiang mouth Yan Hou take a look at the Fei Heng. It was clearly for Yan Hou that the word that was spoken was to test the reaction of Fei Heng. To the contrary of what they at the least expected there was no reaction from Fei Heng. His face still maintains a strange glow of curiosity, not even a reaction at hearing the word Core Formation. "How could you dare to associate the patriarch with your despicable action," Yan Hou said. "There no way that the patriarch would promise you that. how could... " Yan Hou suddenly stop his speech. He then quickly adds." How could he promise something to a trashy person like you" "How could I be trashy. Compare to you I am the most genius people of the Yan clan " Yan Xiang said a little furious when he heard the word trashy. "Hahaha. how could a dog be a genius" Yan Hou said laughing "If I was a dog you would be a dog shit" Yan Xiang said while making a disdainful face. "Who are you calling a dog shit your big ass rat" Yan Hou made a furious face and continue "....." "~~~~~~" "Haha with your **** face and your petty**** how could you still had the courage to live" "YOU" Yan Hou was dying from rage. "You and your shit..." He was suddenly stopped by a sound. "Hum Hum" Fei Heng made a loud sound with his throat. his head is hurting. What started as a treasure talk ended in a cursing contest and there are words that even the main base couldn''t predict. The two of them stopped their cursing contest and look at Fei Heng. Their face were some out was complicated. "Show me that treasure"Fei Heng said as he was taking a look at Yan Xiang. He was now dying to know what originates the fight between the two of them. Yan Xiang face complicated even more, although this was inventible from the very beginning. He takes a little bag that was hidden deep inside his pants. This little bag would correctly be called a pouch. Its fabric with a leather texture with strangers pattern that would cause any person to marvel at it. Fei Heng takes a careful look at it. A strange little glow coming from the bag and at the same time an old look leather book appears on Yan Xiang hands. The books had a strange metallic look pattern in it cover with 4 big words imprinted on it. The Ascendant Sky Technique. Fei Heng had an odd look on his face. ''All that because of a book. Tsc tsc tsc''. Cleary Fei Heng had expected for something better, something like a peerless weapon or even the crystallize energy, something to die for. If the two of them knew the Fei Heng though they would probably vomit blood. A good cultivation technique was hard to find. There people who would massacre thousands of people and walk to hell and back for even the lowest of lowest cultivation TechniqueThis tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere. ''Beep! Gold essence founded. '' Suddenly a mechanical voice rang in Fei Heng head. Fei Heng made a surprise face and followed by a burst of laughter. Gold essence! Finally found. Fei Heng all of a sudden raise up followed by an expression of surprise difference to the two people standing there and not even caring anymore for the impression ''Gold essence mines! Where? ''Fei Heng urgently asked. '' Is not a mine. More than 10 meters in front of you, Gold essence detect on the book and around 230 grams '' With the Mechanical voice response, Fei Heng excitement immediately died down. '' 230 grams. What could I possibly do with so little.'' Fei Heng pause for a bit thinks again. ''At least there more somewhere or even it be a mine in this planet or else they would not waste it on a book'' Then a robot with a human-like structure came in front of Yan Xiang standing it arm and taking the book. It turns back with the book in its hand-delivering to Fei Heng After his arm had expanded and there not much that requires his full attention especially at night he starts to become bored so he decides to play a bit with the engineering robot from the base. So he creates a more human-like robot although his fight strength is not like the spider-like fight robot. And he even had built even some strange looking robot just for fun. The book gave an ancient air as if it had survived the might of time. The first thing it came to mind was to take this book and put it into the melting furnace so he could take the Gold essence out. Then Fei Heng thinks for a bit ''What if I start to practice this thing in the book. It does look like a decent thing.... but first I need to learn more from them and even probably discover some hint of Gold essence''. When Fei Heng takes the book to read. In the book, each word seems like a piece of art that would marvel anyone that set their eyes on it, but Fei Heng found strange each word he sees and when he takes it eyes out of it he would forget the word as if there was some magical thing blocking him front truly remember its words. Fei Heng was puzzled why does he have this sensation from the book, he then takes a look at the two. He wanted to know a bit more about this world. "Fro.m the two of yo..u, Whu is more knuw,lebge abaut th.s regiun" asked again with his awkward pronunciation. Yan Hou takes a step forward with a face like a kid that just had his candy stolen from him. Yan Xiang saw Yan Hou take the lead he didn''t say anything he was clearly that Yan Hou knows about this region more than him was Yan Hou would frequently go out of the Yan clan region on an expedition relating the clan matter. "What does senior wish to know" Yan Hou voice sound a little forced out when he said "I,m ne...w a this regiun s..o Tell m..e everthing an..d i will give you book this bock" This time the words came out a little better as he was constantly murmuring the words before speaking. When Yan Hou heard that the book would turn back if he said everything he felt a little relieved, this book has a lot of value for the clan. At his side, Yan Xiang could only lament internally, all the work he had was for nothing. "ROAR" Yan Hou but didn''t know where to start. But when he heard the low despair roar of a beast in the distance he decides to start from this forest. "This forest...." "~~~~~~" Fei Heng put a hand on his eyebrow recalling just what he had learned from Yan Hou. Accordingly, to Yan Hou here is the demonic forest a very sinister place that anyone would like to avoid for his entire life that was because the demonic beast here is more violent and bloodthirsty. And that the current position inside the demonic forest was at the Southern border of the forest and it no much movement here because of a City to the northeast of here. This city is known as the Wild Market City where the beast and some precious resource are daily exchange by the bulks. And the beast there seems softer compared to here. Then Fei Heng asks how the beast is classified here. Yan Hou said that where the normal wild beast was just called beast but when they form a demonic core inside their body they would be called the Demonic beast. the strength of a rank 1 demonic beast was equivalent to a Conducting qi Cultivator and their level divide in three. And that of a rank 2 demonic beast was equivalent to Foundation Establishment and so on. Then follow by telling of the power division around here the Southern Region: The most powerful force accordingly to Yan Hou would be the Tang Empire was there is the one that controls the Wild Market City and they probably had a powerful expert to maintain their constant position for centuries, after that would be the Sword Villa but little are know about them as their reside deep into the sword Abyss Mountain and the third was the Ji Clan one that just getting powerful recently. Yan Hou didn''t mention other was their strength couldn''t be even compared to the three overlords of the Southern River Region. When Fei Heng asks how the cultivation setting is classified here. Yan Hou was puzzled, wasn''t Fei Heng supposed to be an expert and a least know that? But Fei Heng just said that from where he came thing is classified differently. Yan Hou was not much convinced at the Fei Heng word but when his eyes fall on the book he went on to explain. When one person wants to get strong in this world he/she needs to cultivate, But cultivation was a privilege of the few only thus from a powerful background or at least some talent people and with good luck to set foot on the cultivation world. For starters, one needs to use the Heaven Energy (aka Qi) to refine its body and this is known as the refining stage and was divided into 10 little stages. and after it was the Conducting qi stage where one could then freely circulate qi inside him and at a late stage, it could start to circulate out of his body and like the refining stage it too had 10 minor stages. After that would be the Foundation Establishment but Yan Hou didn''t know much about that was he was yet at the sixty layer of Conducting qi stage. Yan Hou takes a peek at Yan Xiang. Although he had a higher cultivation level than Yan Xiang it wouldn''t be for long considering the fact Yan Xiang had better talent than him. Yan Hou was 27 years old but he could only get to sixty layers of Conducting qi comparing to Yan Xiang who had just made 18 and was already at the third layer of Conducting qi. "~~~~~~" Fei Heng after recalling a bit of information he decides to ask for the thing that he most wants now and could not be delay anymore. He unconsciously put a serious face that would frighten even a ghost. Yan Hou and Yan Xiang somehow get scared at how fast had Fei Heng change their expression. But the next word out of Fei Heng mouth almost made them vomit blood from such words with its serious face. "Any one of the two know how to cook" MS -Chapter 7 - The Ascendant Sky Technique "Well? To thanks th two of you for offering suuch delicious food, let me escort you out of the forest! " Fei Heng said happily as he pat his round belly. Now after some time talking with them Fei Heng pronunciation sounded much better compared to when he first talked. " Thanks, senior "Yan Huo replayed in a calm manner. ''Thanks my a**. you are not the one cooking, and he practically gave us no option''. Yan Xiang eyes look calm but inside of him, he was cursing Fei Heng. Although they could decline it. But would be unknown what the Fei Heng reaction would be. Yan Xiang was the one cooking, as he was not like Yan Huo that had lots of maids that would do any Yan Huo need, even warm his bed. But the main reason that Yan Xiang was cursing Fei Heng was that all his personal belongs that was laying on the table next to Fei Heng and wasn''t only him that had thing confiscated too. "I need to get ready, tomorrow morning we hit the road. You two can stay here the evening, my mechanical puppet will protect your safety. " Fei Heng said that turning around and take everything on top of the table including the two bag of hold and left. Yan Xiang and Yan Huo watched Fei Heng entering into an enormous black House not inviting them in and letting the two of them to spend the night outdoor. Yan Xiang and Yan Huo look at each other, now in the place that was hatred now has filled with pity. "Sigh" The two of them keep looking at each other for a while till a sigh broke the silence "What do you think about him?" Yan Xiang was the first to talk. "I didn''t felt any bad intention from him," Yan Huo said and add "Although he takes our bag of hold he said he would give us back later" Although the bag of hold was an important treasure but for Yan Huo the book worth more. "Do you think that all of this puppet belongs to him" Yan Xiang was the first to ask the question that troubles them from the beginning. "I think its not" Yan Huo said instantly but with a bit of hesitation in his voice. "I could not feel any lofty attitude like someone with a high real of cultivation" he pauses for a bit and said his next word with a more conviction to it. " He looks more like a disciple of one. " "Yah yah. I think that too. But why didn''t he send his Qi directly to the bag to see what was inside and then gave us back "Yan Xiang then think for a bit and add " I think he looks more like an only son of a powerful cultivator " then Yan Xiang sigh internally ''And a powerful puppeteer by the way''. It was clear that the way that Fei Heng acted didn''t give an air of a lofty person. For them, it was more they are looking at a kid on top of a lion. But one thing is certain all the two of them want to gain favour with such a powerful person as the strength of mechanical robots was deeply carved in their minds. Then they quickly worked up a few tents and began to rest. Inside the base, Fei Heng sits by the terminal looking at the examination report of Yan Xiang and Yan Huo belongs. "So this is a spirit stone" Fei Heng take a close look at what resembles a baby fist pebble. This pebble had an e silicon crystals looks and from it emit a wispy aroma of earth. He could feel a strange sensation of comfort coming from the stone. "Beep! energize ore. Could be converted to 9275 unitsE...." a mechanical voice rang at the same time showing further analyses of the spirit stone. "They said that they use this to aid their cultivation. I hope I find some mine of it" Fei Heng was clearly interested in this stone was it had a decent amount of energy on it and if it could be mine he thinks that his energy problem would forever be solved. "Beep! founded a total of 526g of gold essence in the 6 swords " Fei Heng was now sure that this world have gold essence and at least in a good amount or would not found basically in every piece of metal like this sword." He calculated if he didn''t find any mine he would start rob people of their sword or anything that contain gold essence. The author''s narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon."Beep! 7 jade analyze completely. Result: Unstable energy compressed. Action recommended: Stay away at least 3 meters " Fei Heng was shocked when he received the warning he wants to immediately throw the jade away but when he keeps read the report he calms Down. "So this jade is like a tiny version of the energy field blast but with it, strength dramatically decreased " The main reason he didn''t throw away was that it needs an external energy source to activate it. So he assumes it was safe. "Beep! bag of hold unable to analyze. Require base level 1 " He had expected it. Although the Mechanical Civilization something like storage space technology but it was still he was to upgrades the base so he could use it. "Hmmm. Yan Xiang said to put some Qi and it would work." Fei Heng looks at the bag with a curious eyes ''What if a put some base energy inside it'' and his mind thinking a way to open this bag. But then he decides to do it later as he needs to prepare some safety measure first. "Beep! The Ascendant Sky Technique Simulation complete. " "Result: This technique could theoretical further enhanced host body" "Recommend: Further study on it " "Warning: Could put host body in danger as it requires the host to circulate a theoretical energy". Fei Heng was thinking in practice this cultivation technique and the warning didn''t scare him off. According to Yan Huo this technique has in the clan from the very beginning as it was the only complete version left by the patriarch. And goes from the refining stage till the top layer of the Foundation Establishment stage. And the way that Yan Huo was talking about it was like he was venerating the book. Currently, Fei Heng was looking at a digitalized version of The Ascendant Sky Technique. If Yan Huo knew that Fei Heng could read the book as he pleased he would faint, this book requires one to be at least at the 10th layer of Conducting qi stage. And Yan Huo considered this book important at the point of following someone even the confines of hell. That was because he was certain that he would start practice when he gets at the 10th layer of Conducting qi. Although Fei Heng does not understand about cultivation and thing relating to it. And he doesn''t even know if this thing would be prejudicial to him. But he assumed that this thing was been cultivate by lots of cultivator from the Yan Clan and at the least, it deserves some credit. And he was eager to practice like the books of cultivator he had read. Fantasizing about shaking the earth and heaven. Accordingly to The Ascendant Sky Technique to start practising one first need to feel the energy(aka Qi) around him and the more he could felt it the better and that it made through meditation. "Feel the energy through your mind" after Fei Heng read this line he starts to though. "What does it mean by feeling through your mind" then his eyes became absent as if reminding something. "Well. Accordingly to Mechanical Civilization, the mind is a multidimensional structure capable of connecting the body and soul." "Soul!?" "So does it mean that I have to feel the energy around me through the soul." Fei Heng faces frown "How that f**k to use a soul.". Then his eyes became absent again. Accordingly to Mechanical Civilization soul is a representation of the body but in a state of energy and a very pure one. The Mechanical Civilization wasn''t a pure metal robot civilization. They too had some technology related to soul and body. But it requires a rare crystal and extremely sophisticated equipment that only possible to construct when the base is at a more advanced level. But Fei Heng gave a soft smile then he raises his hand and put it on his chest. "Well, I think this can be used too to amplify the soul." Fei Heng was clearly talking about the Heritage crystal that had enter his body when he had first come here. Although its soul function is more like an emergency soul saver, when the host body could not be saved anymore it could be used to connect the host to a new mechanical body. "Let hope that I never had to need that" Fei Heng quickly pray as he reviews the Heritage crystal functions. After done checking the how to used it he lay back on the inclinable chair and concentrate. He didn''t need to shot some strange name or make strange pose Fei Heng just need to concentrate his mind deeply into the crystal. All of a sudden Fei Heng a strange sensation surrounding his body. To be more precise around his soul. This sensation was coming from a little ball of light probably the size of dust around his soul. "So this his Qi!" Fei Heng though flowed to the next step of The Ascendant Sky Technique "Expand the mind and absorb the energy and bring it to the body" ''Tsc, again with this riddle'' Fei Heng has a little more knowledge of what it meant.''So it probably means to absorb this little light and brought it to the body. But how''. "I think this will do "Then Fei Heng remembers one of the functions of the Heritage crystal. It could be used to form a bridge between the soul and the body. Fei Heng carefully tries so the little light around his soul. As if the dust light magnetically attracted to his soul. The dust light rapidly approaches and enter his soul. The moment the light enter his soul he felt an enormous source of delight coming from deep of his soul. After a moment he calms. And start to proceed to send the energy to his body. After that, he had to send the little dust light through his meridian passage in a specific pattern. Each time the little dust light passes through a cell the cell would absorb it and grow more energized. The amount he could bring through the Heritage crystal was not much so he had been very patient while doing it. After this process lasted for a while but then Fei Heng decide to stop for now at the least he knew that cultivation work and he didn''t want to rush thing as he still ignorant when it came to this new world of cultivation. If Yan Xiang and Yan Huo knew that Fei Heng a complete ignorant in cultivation was able to feel the energy and bring it to his body in less than one day they would have probably died of a heart attack. Yan Huo had taken almost a year just to feel the energy and more one to be able to surely bring it back to his body. and although Yan Xiang was a bit better he takes just 1 year to felt and a half to bring it to his body. The success of Fei Heng was thanks to the aid of the Heritage crystal, but he was sure that if he the more advanced equipment he could probably had done more in the same amount of time. That was because Heritage crystal was just a portable version of the full equipment. MS -Chapter 8 - Travel After Fei Heng finished his first section of cultivation a mouthful of blood comes rushing out. "..." He stares a the blood on the ground with a puzzling face. At the same time, the machine voice sounds out. "Beep. Detect internal injury in the host body. Proceeding with treatment" "What is the cause of the injure base" Fei Heng ask the moment he came back to himself. "Beep. Analysing" " Analysis Complete: 1 -Host Body Incompatible with Cultivation technique. 2- Host body still slow adaptation to energy(Qi) necessary further data for better analysis." "Hum. Incompatible, maybe this has to do with the fact that he is not originally from this world. Although the base had shown him that his body is 90% similar to at the least Yan Huo and Yan Xiang" "And the fact that my body still adapting to this heaven energy(Qi)... sigh" Fei Heng gave a small helpless sigh " And the fact that cultivation absorbs too much energy at one go, cause a shock in my body rejecting some of this energy." "I have to give up cultivation, at least till I solve any problem that may come up" It was clear to him that this injury may be just the tip of the iceberg as the base required more data for further analysis. "Perhaps if I the base was more advanced I could..." He knew if the base was more advance he could not be so hopeless. So he could only wait for now. "Cultivation hhh!" Fei Heng felt a little odd about it. He had ready about lots of civilization and not one fit the description of this kind. And this made him dread the unknown " I think it''s better not to expose myself for now. Who knows if they could just take a peek at me and know everything" Fei Heng had somehow feared been found. "So, I have to find a way to not be eyes catch" Although he thinks it was best if he could just go out himself but he didn''t want to risk it and the base agree with that too. "......." "Does you guys know where I can find or what gold essence is?" Even with base advanced treatment, it took two days to fully heal. And the first thing that Fei Heng decide to do was to get information about the most needed resource right now for him. "Hum... Never heard about it ". Yan Xiang made thoughtful eyes as he breaks a strange spiral egg onto a hot metal plate. " Me neither, senior "Yan Huo replayed as he ravishes a piece of roast rib. "Maybe you know it by another name" Fei Heng had expected this."OH, for example, this sword has a little quantity of it" "Hmmm, Although I don''t know much about the gold essence that senior is talking. But if it''s about magic sword maybe a refining master could help you" Yan Xiang talk with a complicated voice as he sees his sword in the Fei Heng hands. Only he knows what bitterness he had to eat to get that sword. " Refining master?" Fei Heng immediately got curious about it, he could see that this kinda sword maybe could just not be found in any backward corner. "How do they refine it? where do I find one of them?" He had analysed the so-called magic sword by Yan Xiang from tip to toe, and he got a bit surprised about it. According to the base computer this sword is made of steel based on iron and silver plus the gold essence that is very tricky to refining if there isn''t a proper tool to do it. "Well..." This time both Yan Huo and Yan Xiang start explaining a bit of knowledge they have about this. According to the two of them, a refining master could just not be found anywhere, normally they train for a very long time and they need talent and a heavy amount of resource. So they are normally safeguarded by a force. And about the way of refining, it''s a way of creating a magical treasure of enormous power or capable of better express the strength of the user. And it a heavy secret that a lot of refining master only pass to their disciple. Of course, there is the possibility of one creates their own or find some hidden inheritance.If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. "Alchemist" Somehow after listen to a barely passable explanation of refining master a could only associate with a branch of an alchemist. "Where is the closest market for precious ore?" Although the conversation was tempting for him, but he quickly changes the subject. "There is a lot of markets that sell ores" Yan Huo seems trying the remember. "But the bests close by ones are the Wild Market City, the market in the Tang Capital City and Nechi City of the Ji Clan..." Seen the face of Fei Heng like if he guessing what he would ask next Yan Hou continues. "The Tang Capital City have big marketplace but they regularize a lot of resources and some cannot be sold without a permit, the Nechi City is a good place too but they sell lots of fake things there, and the Wild Market City don''t sell much of ores but they sell lots of herbs and some special ingredients.... ho senior you know there is a famous saying the Wild Market City that it''s '' what happens in the wild stay in the wild'' and not just that, there this to " in the wild .... " Yan Hou really got into explaining things as he said lots of things. Fei Heng starts getting tired of too much explanation, so he just rolls his eyes and let the base sort all the information. '' I think that the Wild Market City is the best one although is a bit far but it is closest to the forest and I can hide some robot around...''Fei Heng quickly reorganized his thoughts directly to the best option. He didn''t want to go out vulnerable out there and would be very impractical and eyes catch to walk with an arm of robot behind. So Fei Heng quickly start to prepare something before going out ".................." "Roar! ¡± Just then a startling roar came from the shades of the forest Then a huge black figure, at an incredible speed, came from the shade of the forest with a wind pounce out, issuing a deafening roar. Impressively is a big black bear!. The black bear with a purple face, that completely shows wildness on it, speeding like wind, rampage towards two figure. At the same time, a sword appears at the hand of the two. Of curse, these two were Yan Huo and Yan Xiang "Whirring!" As the wind whistled blowing out dust covering up everything At the same time, the two of them jump out of the way in an incredible backflip. Yan Huo blade flashed and the brought it back and in a swift tune, he brought it upfront aiming a the eyes of the barely slowing down the bear. Yan Xiang barely standing up a blue jade appear in his hand immediately throwing toward the black bear. "BOom" a small explosion with dirt busting up Yan Huo, suddenly jumps backwards, with dirt covering him up. His eyes angry fall down on Yan Xiang only to see him with an apologetic smiling but with disappointing eyes on him. "Roar! ¡± The furious roar of the bear broke their small stare contest. With a part of his face swollen then it turns his face toward Yan Xiang and bouncing towards him in a single motion. Yan Xiang expression was calm as if expecting the bear action toward him. In a swift action, the bear was already getting in front of Yan Xiang was it open is mount wide open that could fit a basketball easily inside it. At the same time, Yan Xiang ran toward the bear with incredible speed in a zig-zag way barely avoid the bear mount as Yan Xiang side left. The bear turned to the left barely stopping. Then a dreadful feeling and the immediately try to forward, but it was too late for the bear as a cold metal flash on his eyes. "bang~~" the beard body fell on the ground, as Yan Huo pull his blade from the bear skull. The fight was fast and with no unnecessary moves and not dragging it for too much, they kill it fast and swift as every second lost in the fight was a waste of time. '' If this was a reality or a tv show it would be very successful, but ... '' Fei Heng still looks at this scene with a very admired eye. A man to fight with a beast one on one and this only made him not look down on this world. Along the way, encounters with beasts was a very frequent thing. ''Base report'' Fei Heng said in his mind. [Beep. Currently 1,06 million units of energy in reserves, 2000 tons of steel and 5000 tons of basic material. The daily production capacity of 3700 basic types of machinery. ] [ 13574 fight robot, 1834 prospecting insect robot, 140 recon robot, 1244 Air Combat robot, 575 Miner machinery and robot and 5713 Range Combat Robot.] [ New iron reserve founded at 163 km westward of the main base][ Proceeding according to established template] It had been 1 week since he left is territory to visit the Wild Market City. Now the number of bases had reach 37 and with a daily capacity of producing almost 4,000 mechanical and his territory had reached a radius of 90 km. He considers its territory since nobody it occupying it.He easily could have occupied more territories but he decides not to expand outward so fast as it required constantly monitorization Now main base energy reserves had reached one million energy units but this didn''t give him any comfort. Now all his base can consume almost 70 000 of energy daily by supplying energy for his robot and processing some necessary raw material. And now most of his energy comes from massacring demon beast and take their crystallized core. Although he had quite a stock of resources, but he was not satisfied yet and the problem of maintaining a strong force is to have a stable supply of energy. The energy supply had become a torn, And this is why he could not wait much more. In this travel, he had taken quite a bit of his force, as more than 10,000 of his robot, as they serve for monitoring the way ahead of him and eliminate some beast in the way and try to easy his trail as he moves. And all this put quite a burden on him, although the base could manage it quite well, but by doing himself he felt more secure. And to relax along the way he would from time to time watch these two fight some beast.
