149: Chapter 149 Monopolizing the Core Energy Reserve! The Domineering Act of Making the Entire Audience Stand as Punishment!
Inside the dark interstellar ruin corridor, the deafening sounds of metal grinding and explosions rang out.
The 180-ton crimson hunter fighter jet was like a violent steamroller, forcefully plowing a path of blood through the dense mechanical tide.
The ultra-red nano-crystal steel armor crushed ancient mechanical UFOs, erupting into bursts of blinding sparks and shattered parts.
But as the fighter went deeper, the levels of the mechanical Xenogeneics in the corridor became higher and higher.
Huge ancient laser battleships emerged one after another from inside the walls. Their wide hulls and layers of deflector shields completely blocked the once-spacious corridor.
The fighter's thrust was pushed to the limit, but its speed visibly slowed down.
"Captain brother, there are too many big guys ahead." Tiantian gripped the control stick tightly, the large screen filled with red dots.
"Even if our armor is tough, this corridor is only so big. With the wreckage piling up, the engines can barely push through."
Yu Feng leaned back on the leather sofa and flicked the ash from his premium cigar.
"What a pain." He exhaled a thick cloud of smoke, watching the mechanical UFOs buzzing around like flies outside; his patience was rapidly wearing thin.
If they kept ramming through at this snail's pace, clearing the corridor would waste a lot of time. He was in a hurry to loot the depths and didn't have time to waste on these metal lumps.
A faint sound of footsteps came from nearby.
Vice President Bai Yating walked to the side of the sofa.
She had just finished bathing and had changed into an extremely form-fitting black maid outfit. Her long legs were wrapped in the black silk stockings that had been torn the night before, and her hair was still slightly damp.
"Captain." Vice President Bai Yating bowed slightly, her neckline revealing a large expanse of snow-white skin.
"Although these mechanical bodies are high-level, they also follow programmed instructions. My ability just broke through to C-rank; I can try to take them over."
Yu Feng raised an eyebrow and looked her up and down.
The extremely savage "private tutoring" in the bedroom just now had completely transformed this former icy school beauty.
That high-and-mighty arrogance had long been crushed to pieces. Now, her mind was filled with how to demonstrate her value to firmly establish her place on this invincible fighter.
"Alright, I'll give you a chance to show off." Yu Feng leaned back. "Get whatever equipment you need yourself."
"No external equipment is needed; I just need to borrow the fighter's antenna." Vice President Bai Yating took a deep breath and turned to walk to the main control console.
She didn't sit down but instead pressed both hands directly onto the metal panel of the console.
She closed her eyes.
A burst of extremely pure, deep blue light erupted from her. The C-rank Mechanical Intrusion and Overload Control ability operated at full power!
This massive spiritual force followed the fighter's internal circuits and instantly connected to the radar amplification antenna at the top.
The originally invisible data stream was forcibly amplified several times, like a giant invisible spider web, suddenly blanketing the mechanical tide ahead.
Fine sweat instantly appeared on Vice President Bai Yating's fair forehead as she gripped the edge of the console tightly.
The firewall of the ancient interstellar ruin was extremely overbearing, but in the "private tutoring" session for the three of them just now, the energy Yu Feng had instilled in her was simply too abundant.
With the C-rank ability plus the amplification from the fighter's antenna, she forcefully tore a hole in the defense networks of those low-level mechanical UFOs.
"Change... for me!"
Vice President Bai Yating bit her red lips and let out a low growl from her throat.
In the next second, a scalp-numbing scene appeared.
The thousands of mechanical UFOs blocking the path of the crimson hunter fighter jet, which were about to fire high-energy lasers, all paused at once.
The crimson warning lights flashing on their hulls flickered twice and instantly turned into an eerie deep blue.
The underlying logic code was forcibly tampered with, and the friend-or-foe identification system was completely flipped.
These mechanical UFOs suddenly turned their noses in mid-air, completely ignoring the eerie red fighter behind them, and aimed their muzzles directly at those massive ancient laser battleships!
"Zzzzt—"
Thousands of azure high-energy laser beams were fired in unison.
The ancient laser battleships in the front row were completely unprepared for their "underlings" to suddenly open fire.
Their deflector shields were extremely weak at the rear, and the laser beams penetrated the armor without any resistance, directly shattering their power cores.
Several massive battleships instantly exploded into brilliant fireballs within the corridor.
"Beautiful!" Chu Yu pushed up her gold-rimmed glasses and looked at the friend-or-foe signals jumping wildly on the data board, offering a generous compliment.
The entire interior of the corridor fell into complete chaos.
The mechanical UFOs went crazy, pouncing on the high-level battleships to bite, cut, and self-destruct.
The ancient defense system fell into severe internal conflict, with its own units fighting each other, sparks flying everywhere, and metal wreckage falling like rain.
This scene was projected without reservation onto the radars and optical screens of the surviving players from various regions in the rear.
At the corridor entrance, Li Tianbao of the Tianxia Alliance was leading his men forward, trembling. Seeing the mechanical monsters ahead fighting in a mess, he was so scared he almost snapped the control stick.
"What kind of god-tier technology is this? Why are those monsters fighting each other?!" Li Tianbao wailed in the public channel, his voice cracking.
Alexander, the commander of the Western European Region, sat in his flagship, frantically wiping sweat with a handkerchief.
Just now, their thousands of fighters hadn't even lasted one round of synchronized fire before being beaten into a retreat by these monsters. Now, God Yu hadn't even fired a single cannon and had made these metal lumps defect on the spot!
"Oh God... what kind of monster is inside that red fighter?" Alexander's legs went weak, and he completely abandoned the idea of entering the ruins to compete with Yu Feng for resources.
This kind of dimensional reduction strike was simply not something players of their level could understand.
Inside the crimson hunter fighter jet, Yu Feng laughed with satisfaction.
With the mechanical tide killing each other, a large blank area was instantly cleared in the corridor ahead.
"Tiantian, don't just stand there." Yu Feng snapped his fingers. "While they're at each other's throats, clear the floor for me."
"Roger that!"
Tiantian excitedly pressed the full-frequency fire control button. Six 12cm aerial autocannons instantly emerged from the belly of the plane, and the missile matrices on both sides of the wings were all activated.
"Boom, boom, boom—"
A dense barrage of mithril high-explosive armor-piercing shells and Magic Energy Tracking Missiles poured out, turning into a destructive metal storm that crashed directly into the chaotic mechanical swarm ahead.
The mechanical Xenogeneics, already battered from their internal fight, didn't even have a chance to struggle under this wave of violent fire and were turned into powder in swathes.
With a thought from Yu Feng.
The "one-click auto-loot" function of the Infinite Portable Space was fully activated.
In mid-air, countless shimmering mechanical crystal cores, ancient electronic components, high-strength interstellar alloy ores, and even a few golden blueprints turned into streaks of light and were frantically sucked into the eerie red fighter's storage bay.
The resource reserve numbers jumped upward at an extremely exaggerated speed.
"Captain, the cleanup is complete." Vice President Bai Yating released her hands, panting heavily.
She turned around, and although her face was a bit pale, her eyes were filled with the joy of being validated.
She walked to the sofa and naturally knelt at Yu Feng's feet, reaching out to massage his legs.
Yu Feng reached out and ruffled her hair: "Good job. When we get back tonight, I'll give you a good 'recharge'."
Vice President Bai Yating's cheeks instantly turned crimson, and she nodded repeatedly.
"Full speed ahead!" Yu Feng stood up and looked at the suddenly open corridor ahead. "The good stuff is still further in."
The crimson hunter fighter jet smashed through the last few pieces of mechanical wreckage and suddenly burst out of the long, narrow corridor.
The sight before them made all the women in the Captain's cabin hold their breath.
This was a vast underground space that seemed almost boundless, with cold white light sources glowing on the surrounding alloy walls.
Right in the center stood an extremely massive matrix platform. On the platform, tens of thousands of crystal cubes were neatly stacked.
These cubes were a deep, profound blue, with what looked like nebulae swirling inside. The pure energy fluctuations they emitted caused a sense of palpitations even from several kilometers away.
"Captain brother!" Chu Yu's hands flew across the keyboard, and strings of complex data streams popped up on the holographic screen.
"Those are high-purity interstellar energy blocks! The composition analysis is out!"
She was so excited her voice was trembling: "These are the core materials for perfectly upgrading to a Level 8 fighter!"
Yu Feng looked at the platform full of interstellar energy cubes and grinned.
This trip to the ruins wasn't in vain. Just this core energy vault alone was enough to push his eerie red fighter up another major level.
At this time, the remnants of the players following behind to "scavenge" also emerged one after another from the corridor.
Li Tianbao of the Tianxia Alliance, Alexander of the Western European Region, and several scout planes from the War God Alliance all hovered several kilometers away from the platform.
Everyone's optical radars were locked onto that energy matrix, and the public channel was instantly filled with heavy breathing.
Wealth moves the heart. In the wasteland world, having resources of this level placed before them was enough to make people risk their lives.
"Boss, the energy readings on that thing are too terrifying." Zhao Xiaolan reminded Xiao Zhantian over the comms. "Should we go up and grab a few blocks?"
Xiao Zhantian gripped the control stick tightly and shook his head through gritted teeth: "Nobody move! If God Yu hasn't spoken, who dares to go up and snatch them? What happened to those North American guys will be your fate!"
Just because Xiao Zhantian could hold back didn't mean others could.
Li Tianbao stared at the screen, his eyes turning red. His newly assembled Level 5 airliner was dirt poor; if he could get some interstellar energy blocks, the Tianxia Alliance could turn things around immediately.
"Damn it, I'm going for it! God Yu is eating the meat; I'll rely on my speed to steal a bit and run. He won't fall out with me over just a few energy blocks!"
Malice grew in Li Tianbao's heart, and he directly pressed a red button on the fighter's control console.
That was a transcendent item he had bought for a high price, "Wind Walk," which could allow a vehicle to burst into a top speed exceeding twice the speed of sound for a short time.
"Whoosh—"
The Tianxia Alliance airliner turned into an afterimage, racing across the ground toward the platform.
At the same time, the Western European Region couldn't hold back either.
Several foreign players with high-level "Space Jump" and "Absolute Stealth" abilities activated their skills and crept toward the energy vault like ghosts.
These self-proclaimed clever fellows were all betting that Yu Feng wouldn't be able to react in time.
Inside the crimson hunter fighter jet, Tiantian was so angry she slapped the table: "These beggars actually dare to snatch our things! Captain brother, I'll open fire and blow them all up!"
"No need to waste shells."
Yu Feng snorted coldly. He didn't even touch the control console. With a flip of his wrist, a scepter entirely inlaid with mysterious gems and emitting an ancient pressure appeared in his hand out of thin air.
Transcendent item—stasis scepter!
Yu Feng walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, raised the scepter, and pointed it from afar at the area surrounding the energy matrix.
"Freeze."
As he uttered that word, the gem at the top of the scepter erupted with a blinding white light.
An invisible ripple swept across the entire field at a speed exceeding the speed of light.
The space in the area ahead felt as if someone had forcibly pressed the pause button.
Li Tianbao, who had turned into an afterimage while sprinting, was suddenly stuck in mid-air along with his plane. The jet stream at the rear of the fighter still maintained its shape, but no sound came out.
The Western European players who had activated Space Jump and Stealth were even worse off.
One of them had just poked half of his plane's body out of the void when he was stuck fast in the spatial rift; another stealthed guy had the light and shadow refraction on his body freeze directly, leaving him frozen in mid-air like a transparent glass sculpture, maintaining a ridiculous sprinting posture.
The overbearing nature of the stasis scepter lay in its ability to forcibly strip all targets within the area of their physical kinetic energy and energy operation!
A five-second freeze!
Although it was only five seconds, in a plundering battle of this level, five seconds was enough to dig up one's ancestral graves!
"You dare to reach for my things."
Yu Feng didn't even get off the ship. He directly mobilized the authority of the Infinite Portable Space in his mind.
"Collect."
An invisible abyss-like mouth suddenly opened in the void.
Under the horrified gazes of all the remaining players on the server, that vast core matrix platform piled with interstellar energy blocks, along with several meters of thick alloy ground beneath it, was directly uprooted!
With a "shua," the entire energy vault vanished into thin air, without even a scrap left! Only a huge, smooth pit remained on the spot.
Having finished all this, the five-second freeze time just ended.
Physical kinetic energy was instantly restored.
"Clang—Crack!"
Li Tianbao's Level 5 airliner lost its balance and crashed into the ground, its nose denting in significantly. He fell flat on his face in the cockpit, even knocking out a front tooth.
The Western European player stuck in the spatial rift was pulled down by gravity and crashed heavily into the bottom of the pit, his screams echoing throughout the underground space.
Everyone was stunned.
They looked at the empty giant pit, their heads buzzing.
What happened to scavenging? What happened to stealing one block and running?
This guy even dug up the floor tiles!
Inside the Captain's cabin, Yu Feng didn't bother with the clowns outside at all. He directly retrieved the interstellar energy blocks he had collected into the space and threw them all into the magic energy furnace.
"Refine at a ten-to-one ratio, full power."
Dark golden flames instantly ignited in the magic energy furnace. Low-level impurities were frantically stripped away, leaving behind only the most pure interstellar crystals.
In just a few minutes, a batch of top-grade interstellar crystals emitting dark golden flames was spat out. The energy contained in each block was more than ten times higher than before.
The magic energy furnace synthesized a total of 3,000 units of top-grade interstellar energy cubes.
Yu Feng casually turned on the full-frequency loudspeaker.
His extremely arrogant voice boomed inside the ancient ruins, making everyone's eardrums ache.
"Who was the one crawling forward just now? I left you a dog's life so you could eat my exhaust, not so you could sit at the same table and eat with me."
Yu Feng toyed with a lighter, and with a "snap," he lit it.
"Everything in these ruins is mine. Anyone who dares to fly another meter forward will end up like those few thousand dead dogs from North America! Get lost!"
The word "Get lost" carried an extremely brutal and decisive killing intent.
Li Tianbao clutched his leaking mouth and scrambled to pilot his broken plane back in a panic. Alexander, without a second word, immediately ordered the fleet to retreat ten kilometers.
In the vast core area, tens of thousands of people were red-eyed with envy, yet they didn't even dare to fart. They could only watch as that dark red invincible fighter continued to crush its way deeper into the ruins.
