Tang Rao shrugged his shoulders, thinking if He Ying wanted to play, then let's play.
As long as it wasn't anything like him turning into a woman or having to kiss a man, he could accept it.
Besides, He Ying, no matter how low she might stoop, wouldn't resort to such petty tricks.
After all, she was a leader, wasn't she?
He Ying snorted, stepped back a few paces, and then it was unclear what she pressed.
Suddenly, the ground began to rumble, quaking like an earthquake.
A round platform in the very center of the Central Battle Zone slowly opened, and then a pitch-black object rose from within.
Standing about ten meters tall, its entire body was jet black, and each hand wielded a long knife, looking truly intimidating.
"This is our base's twenty-five years of research—War God One, forged entirely from a meteorite. Its hardness and toughness are ten times that of graphene and thousands of times that of steel. War God One has nine levels, with level one being the lowest and level nine the highest. If you can defeat level six, I'll have nothing to say and will immediately hand over Li Yuze to you," He Ying said to Tang Rao.
What!
Level six!
Inside the base, everyone looked at He Ying in disbelief; the leader must be joking.
This Tang Rao was indeed powerful and his methods frightening, but War God One, that was real cutting-edge technology.
In the entire base, only Li Yuze could defeat the first level...
Levels above the second weren't something humans could challenge.
Level six...
My god, was that even possible?
Tang Rao narrowed his eyes; this so-called War God One seemed quite formidable.
It must be something similar to a Puppet, with levels one to nine corresponding to different combat strengths.
He hadn't expected the people of Blue Star to be capable of making such a thing.
"How about we up the stakes?" Tang Rao looked at He Ying.
"What?" He Ying's brows furrowed slightly.
"Let's go straight to level nine. If I can defeat it, you give me War God One too, how about that?" Tang Rao said with a grin, God knows how exhilarated he felt inside.
You wasteful things, do you know what this is?
This is a stone from beyond the domains!
Something only found outside the domains' boundaries, in the Nine Realms of the Seventy-two Domains, a fist-sized stone from beyond the domains could cause a swath of Cultivators to go mad with killing.
Such a large stone from beyond the domains, if it fell into the hands of the Nine Realms of the Seventy-two Domains, I can say without exaggeration, it would absolutely drive the entire Nine Realms of the Seventy-two Domains insane.
Stones from beyond the domains couldn't be cut, but they were malleable and pliable.
Meaning, you couldn't split the stone from beyond the domains, but you could forge anything you wanted with it.
Of course, the precondition was that the stone you had was big enough.
I don't object to you using this stone from beyond the domains to create Puppets; it's indeed a good idea.
But the technology is too poor, the craftsmanship too rough.
It's just a sheer waste of resources.
Hearing Tang Rao's bet, He Ying's brows furled.
To be honest, although War God One always existed, it was barely ever used.
Because it was too formidable, not even level one could withstand it, let alone the higher levels.
Level nine... she even feared it might destroy the entire base.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, afraid, huh? If you're afraid, then let's forget it. I'm quite understanding of the timid. No worries, level six it is. Set it up, and I'll take the challenge," Tang Rao said, waving his hand as he noticed He Ying's hesitation.
Beside them, Han Wanli gave Tang Rao a thumbs-up.
This kid Tang Rao was truly impressive, immediately hitting He Ying's sore spot.
He Ying just couldn't stand being provoked.
"Fine! Then it's settled, you'll take on level nine! If you win, you can take Li Yuze and Mountain God One with you. But if you lose, you must stay and become the Chief Instructor of our base," He Ying said to Tang Rao.
Having Tang Rao stay would bring an unimaginable enhancement to the base.
"Sure, deal," Tang Rao nodded and then started to bounce around to warm up.
He might not care about the Puppet Technology of Blue Star, but he couldn't ignore the alien magic stones. These stones are downright defying heaven's will.
To say they were indestructible wouldn't be an exaggeration. Anyway, even during the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, Tang Rao couldn't manage to split the alien magic stones.
"Everyone, fall back!" He Ying yelled out loudly.
Tens of thousands of people present all began retreating in an orderly fashion, without any chaos.
A few minutes later, only Tang Rao and War God One remained in the central zone.
"Start War God One, shut down all non-essential power facilities on the base, connect it to the level nine equipment, and operate!" He Ying shouted again.
"Whoo!"
"Whoo!"
"Whoo!"
The base resonated with three sounds similar to an air raid siren, but even sharper and more urgent.
After the three loud blasts, Tang Rao felt a slight vibration from the ground, and War God One in front of him started making creaking noises.
Inside must be full of mechanical devices, now ready to operate.
Massive electricity from various parts of the base converged, concentrating on War God One.
Suddenly, two narrow, red lights lit up on the gigantic, pitch-black head of War God One, resembling human eyes.
"I gotta say, this design is quite badass!" Tang Rao couldn't help but feel a glint in his eyes upon seeing those red eyes.
He had to admit, this was the coolest puppet he had ever seen.
Ah, the design capabilities of Blue Star inhabitants are seriously impressive.
"Whoosh whoosh!" The next moment, War God One's arms whirled, and its huge black dual blades moved so fast that only their afterimages remained.
It seemed even the air was being slashed, generating crackling explosive noises.
Clearly, the dual blades in the hands of War God One were also made of alien magic stone, completely integrated with the system.
Tang Rao rummaged through his Space Ring, and then he pulled out a silver staff.
The staff was five to six meters long, engraved all over with Array markings.
This thing was from Chen Tuan's ring; it should be a weapon forged from Pure Gold and Explosive Silver Stone, also quite good.
Everyone looked dumbfounded; they all wanted to know where Tang Rao got that staff in his hands.
They didn't see it just before.
Where had he hidden it?
With a staff that's five to six meters long, there's nowhere to hide it.
"Level nine War God activation countdown," irrespective of the confusion, a loud noise still echoed through the air.
"Ten...Nine...Eight..."
"Two...One! Activate!"
Boom!
War God One shuddered violently, then those red eyes suddenly focused on Tang Rao.
Without any hesitation, without any mercy, War God One swung its arms, dual blades attacking swiftly from above and below, to the left and the right, slashing fiercely towards Tang Rao.
No afterimages, so fast that ordinary people couldn't even see them.
"Holy shit, this speed is no joke," Tang Rao exclaimed and quickly lifted the staff in his hand.
As he drew back his body, the staff collided with one of the long blades.
"Clang!" The intense clash reverberated, causing many people's eardrums to ache.
As for Tang Rao, although he was still grasping the staff and the staff wasn't broken, his arms, no, his whole body trembled along with the staff, and the flesh in the palms of his hands burst open.
