Chapter 748: The Battle of Makino >

rning his head, he saw a lame child standing in front of the house, leaning on a crutch."What are you yelling about! I'm here." Lao Jin extinguished his cigarette and stood up.If it weren't for him, I...On one hand, we are pioneering the construction of Kunlun. On the other hand, we are dedicated to developing creatures that can adapt to extreme environments.

As a master of mechanical arts, Lu Cheng didn't believe that mechanisms had an advantage over living beings. He believed that mechanisms lacked a soul, which prevented them from independently using spiritual energy, psychic power, or magic. They required a human to guide them.

Full mechanization, without relying on sentient beings or external forces, can only achieve self-replication at most and will never be able to generate or utilize psychic abilities such as magic, qi, or psionics.

Commonly known as an iron lump with no spirit.

In Lu Cheng's previous world, famous experiments like the double-slit experiment and the observer effect proved that what is observed will be influenced to some extent by the act of observation.

But limited by the level of technology, we can only resort to quantum mechanics when facing difficulties.

But when he truly reached the world of transcendence, he realized how far behind he was.

This has nothing to do with technological level, this is because psychic ability inherently has the power to control fundamental particles.

Just like a divine consciousness can arrange and combine spiritual energy to form powerful spells.

I've never heard of cultivating qi but not the mind.

Things that possess a spirit can influence things like spiritual particles, magical particles, etc. The process of this influence deepening is called cultivation.

That's it, that simple.

But the machine cannot, by itself, lead a spiritual life of self-cultivation. These metallic objects lack souls!

Even a magnificent mechanism like the Golden Core of an apparatus can only imbue it with spiritual energy under the guidance of a human.

But the world's will is fair.

In extreme environments, machinery and mechanical structures have some advantages over biological organisms. When a machine loses energy or sustains damage, it can at most be disabled, but with some repairs it can function again. This is not the case for living things.

If the first batch can't reach biological life, then send half-mechanical lifeforms. If they can't reach giant creatures, send smaller ones. Put the biological part into hibernation and let the half-mechanical part withstand the impact of the unstable spiritual energy ecosystem to complete the exploration mission.

Since now, the Kunlun Qi Engine will also default to being unable to provide a stable Qi ecosystem in outer space, so we should make preparations in advance.

For this goal, Lu Cheng began to pour a large amount of national power into the Huoyun Country's aquatic breeding grounds. Anyway, he had won too many fish races, so the first step was from waterborne, using them to develop the first generation of exploratory organisms that adapted to extreme environments.

The first generation is only used to follow the Atlantis-seeking fleet of the Silver String Kingdom to the depths.

You drew a series of cards and obtained the next stage competition duel objective.

Goal One: Establish a test field to simulate the unstable state of Kunlun Qi under outer space interference, used for cultivating pioneers.

News of Huoyun Nation's construction of a giant spirit particle collider has spread like wildfire.

【Makino】The first collision of the Reiki clashing field was incredibly shocking.

Due to the unstable situation in Bu Zhou Guo, the Bei Hai Marshal invested all 5 points of national power in each round, summoning a large number of cultivators from Shan Hai Shi and inviting countless powerful figures from the Feng Shen Bang. With an additional 600,000 auxiliary troops, they clashed on the Mu Ye battlefield, evolving into a card called "Mu Ye Battle" to simulate the unstable state of external spiritual energy.

This time, even most of their own people believe the wind has changed, that it has evolved from a lunar exploration program into the development of a weapon of destruction!

Near Huo Yun Dong.

One person took off their hood.

"Hurry, report to the Holy Maiden! The Han's destruction deck has entered the proof-of-concept stage!"

"Are you sure"

"I'm sure, I can't contact you anymore, the Investigation Division has got onto me!"

"Beih Hai Shuai has always been a reckless gambler. After the Huaijiang project, he's almost all-in. I will immediately report to the Saintess."

The woman walked away quickly. After a while, the hooded figure emerged from the alley and sat down at a noodle shop on the street.

Awhile later, a burly man and another man walked into the noodle shop. They sat down at the table next to the hooded man and ordered two bowls of noodles, eating them in silence.

"Well, it's from the Southern River Bureau of Cultivating seedlings, and fragrant. This Fire Cloud Nation does have a taste of home~ I wonder when Xianyang City will open its gates."

"Captain Wang, it's done." The hooded figure immediately recognized the arrival and whispered.

Okay, you worked hard. Dinner's on me.

The hooded man sat down: "Thank you, Captain Wang, uh this is..."

“You don’t recognize me, but I recognize you,” the man said. “Isn’t it Xiaojin After Mount Buzhou collapsed, when we were repairing the left fin of Kunyu, it was you who went alone without hesitation, risking your life. If it weren't for me saving you, you would be gone, wouldn't you”

"Lu Shuai!"

"Come on, just create a new account to hang out with your old brother and have some noodles and chat." Lu Cheng scoffed.

"So you weren't here to keep me company after all!"

"A female voice suddenly chimed in."

"Have you ever seen the girl in Tsing Yi Can she speak" Xiaojin bowed and asked.

Xiaoguo has been in the Shanhai sect for many years, of course knowing that Lushao's swordsmanship relies on [Qingyi Girl]. However, Qingyi can't speak, and everyone within their own group knows this.

"Well, Ah Qing was forced to take a leave of absence. This is another one." Lu Cheng shrugged. "We're all on the same team, so I'll be straight with you both: you still need to keep working hard. The Kunlun Plan won't be smooth sailing. We need more time and strategic space."

"Don't worry, we all understand about eating first, it'll get cold later."

The impact of the 【Makino Collider】 deployed in Huoyun Country is more profound than imagined. Although it is kept secret, the celestial disturbances caused by the battle at Makino are undeniable, with surrounding spiritual energy in disarray.

Meanwhile, thanks to Wang Han and others' efforts, the news soon reached the Holy Kingdom.

The Death King was naturally suspicious, and he wouldn't renew the Intimidation Agreement. He also had doubts about the Sun-Shooting Plan, but after the clash of spiritual energy, even he couldn't help but believe it.

The second generation of super-limited cards for Han people is probably going to be released much faster than anticipated, while the Noah's Ark resistance armors are still nowhere near complete. After all, resisting in such an extreme environment like a global flood isn't easy at all, and the foundation for Mount Olympus has just been laid.

The saint herself arrived in Huoyun Kingdom at this time, hoping to meet Lu Cheng.

At this moment, across from Lu Cheng, that alluring woman was back at the table.

"Your Excellency, General of the North Sea of Hua Xia, please allow me to offer my sincere blessings on behalf of the Holy Nation!"

"Curse me to an early death" Lu Cheng said with a smile.

"Don't say it like that," the saint said. "Though we are enemies, there are some aspects on which we can find common ground, don't you think"

No consensus, please come back.

"No!

"

The Saint cried out urgently.

"What on earth do you want to say Make it quick, I still have experiments to run," Lu Cheng said.

"Both of us should renew the deterrent agreement, take some time to cool down, and resolve issues with conventional means instead of resorting to destructive escalation. Don't you agree" said the Saintess.

"Is it the Loay Ark that's having problems" Lu Cheng feigned thought.

"That's not the case. We are willing to showcase the progress of the 【Ark of Noah】 so far. Under the intervention of the Supreme Treaty, we have renewed the restricted card list. As you know, this cannot be faked. If the issue can be resolved during the cooling-off period, the final victory will ultimately belong to conventional warfare, which would be best for the entire continent."

"Joke, you made Tian Sheng into a whole battery, are you worried about the mainland's existence I think it's because your super limited card progress is behind," Lu Cheng sneered. "I want to remind you, the regular cards of the Holy Nation are not at an advantage on the field either."

"That's best of all. You have confidence in conventional warfare, so there's no need for either of us to resort to unconventional means," the Saint chuckled. "Renewing the deterrence agreement is the best course of action."

"So you're saying that you're putting the progress on the Ark of Noah on hold, and we're putting all stages of the Sun-Piercing Bow on hold as well"

At this moment, both people had their own thoughts!

The Saint, at the behest of the Lich King, brought news of progress on the Ark of Noah.

Conventional war resolution No, no, no

Continuing to sign the deterrence agreement, but St. Nation still has [Olympus] operating in secret, which is equivalent to only having half of a super-limited card locked. When the day of unsealing arrives, sneaking out half will give them an advantage at the starting line, and in the final super-limited confrontation, St. Nation will definitely be the winner.

And Lu Cheng

My 【She Rises】 plan was never activated, let alone sealed. Under the supervision of the Supreme Treaty, a ban card

That's some air we've got there!but it's outdated. It has to be said, Thunder regrets it. If they had truly marched according to the treaty, they could have retaken the West Coast. But there's no medicine for regret in this world."Y...
