57: The First Emperor of Humanity crushes the scum! Wang Teng: You fucking want to die?!
"They're dead! They're all dead!"
"Hahaha! These bastards! They finally got what's coming to them!"
"God! You are our god!"
Countless mining slaves knelt on the ground again, letting out the most fanatical shouts toward the [human emperor no. 1]!
In their eyes, there was no longer numbness and despair.
Instead, the flames of hope were rekindled!
Su Jue ignored the cheering below.
His gaze swept across the entire mining area.
He saw a few scattered soldiers driving mechas that could barely move, fleeing frantically toward the distance in a panic.
That direction was exactly one of the three planetary-level defense bases... the First Base!
"Trying to report back?"
Su Jue sneered.
He didn't pursue them.
Because what he wanted was for them to report back.
If he only slaughtered these small fry, it would be far too boring.
What he wanted was a grand feast of revenge that would make the entire Wang Family tremble!
And this feast required more spectators.
And more... sacrifices!
"xiao pu."
"Present, my King."
"Scan the entire planet's energy network and communication hubs."
"I want to give the Wang Family a grand gift."
"As you command, my King."
A stream of red Data flashed through the electronic eyes of the [human emperor no. 1].
Vast amounts of information began to be frantically absorbed and analyzed by it... Meanwhile.
K-7 Planet, First Defense Base.
Inside the main command room.
The base's supreme commander, Wang Teng, was looking at the static on the main screen with a gloomy face.
He, at the ninth level of the Domain Transformation Realm and a direct member of the Wang Family, was the most powerful person on this planet besides that Grand Elder of the King Realm.
Just now, he had suddenly lost contact with the No. 17 Mining Area under his jurisdiction.
Whether it was communications or energy monitoring, everything showed a complete blank.
This situation was unprecedented.
"Useless! You're all useless!"
"Haven't you found out what exactly happened yet?!"
Wang Teng roared angrily at the group of staff officers under him.
"Reporting to the General! The reconnaissance drones we sent out also lost contact when they approached the No. 17 Mining Area!"
"That area seems... seems to have some kind of unknown strong energy interference!"
A staff officer reported tremblingly.
"Strong energy interference?"
Hearing this, Wang Teng's brow furrowed even tighter.
Could it be that some geological anomaly had occurred deep within the mining area?
Or... had space pirates found their way to this planet?
Impossible!
This planet's defenses were impregnable!
Even if the Federation's regular army came, it would be impossible to silently paralyze a mining area without alerting anyone!
Just as he was completely baffled.
"Beep beep beep—!"
A sharp alarm suddenly sounded!
"Reporting to the General! Unknown units detected approaching the base at high speed!"
"Quantity... approximately thirty!"
"It's... it's our own patrol mechas!"
"They... they seem to be fleeing back from the direction of the No. 17 Mining Area!"
Hearing this news, Wang Teng's spirits lifted!
"Quick! Let them in immediately! I want to know what exactly happened there!"
"Yes!"
The base's gates slowly opened.
Those thirty-odd scarred patrol mechas, missing limbs and parts, rushed in like stray dogs.
As soon as the leading mecha landed, the cockpit popped open.
A soldier covered in blood scrambled out, his face filled with terror!
"Gen... General!!"
He knelt on the ground, his voice becoming sharp and distorted due to extreme fear!
"De... Demon! There's a demon!!"
"The No. 17 Mining Area is completely finished! Everyone is dead!"
"A golden... over three hundred meters tall... giant mecha!"
"It... it only used one move... and turned everyone... into ash!!"
What?!
Hearing these incoherent words, the entire command room was in an uproar!
A mecha over three hundred meters tall?
Killing over a hundred people in one move?
Is this f*cking a fairy tale?!
Wang Teng's expression also instantly became incredibly ugly.
He grabbed the soldier's collar, lifted him up, and shouted harshly:
"What kind of nonsense are you talking?!"
"Make it clear! What exactly was it?!"
However, the soldier had clearly been scared out of his wits.
His mind had completely collapsed.
He just kept repeating the words "demon," "golden," and "holy sh*t."
A flash of disgust and killing intent crossed Wang Teng's eyes.
He was just about to strike this useless waste to death with a palm.
Just then.
"Boom—!!!!"
A deafening roar suddenly came from deep underground!
The entire base shook violently!
It was as if a massive earthquake had occurred!
In the command room, all the lights flickered wildly!
All the screens turned a piercing red in an instant!
[Warning! Warning!]
[Energy Core No. 1 has experienced an unknown failure! Energy output is dropping rapidly!]
[Warning! Energy Core No. 2 has experienced an unknown failure!]
[Warning! No. 3...]
A series of alarms, like a death knell, echoed throughout the entire command room!
Wang Teng's pupils suddenly constricted!
The energy cores!
Something happened to the base's energy cores!
How is this possible?!
The base's energy supply system was buried ten thousand meters underground, protected by the strongest alloys; how could they all have problems at the same time?!
However, before he could figure it out.
An image that made his soul nearly leave his body appeared on the main screen.
Outside the base, in the sky.
That golden, god-like giant figure had somehow already suspended itself there.
Its electronic eyes, burning with golden flames, were coldly staring down at the base.
And on its right arm.
The "Gravitational Collapse Cannon," with black lightning swirling around its muzzle, was slowly... cooling down.
That shot just now was its doing!
Using the "Deep Geological Structure Analysis" model parsed from the "Abyssal Worm" drilling mecha, it had precisely located the weakest node of the base's underground energy pipelines!
Then, it fired a "Miniature Singularity" directly into it!
That shot didn't destroy any of the base's buildings.
But it paralyzed the heart of the entire base from the inside!
"It's you!!!"
Looking at the figure on the screen, Wang Teng's eyes nearly split as he let out a beastly roar!
He finally realized that what the soldier said was true!
There really was a three-hundred-meter-tall... demon!
"Who... who exactly are you?!"
Wang Teng's voice cracked due to anger and fear.
"Do you know that this is the Wang Family's territory?"
"By doing this, you are declaring war on a top-tier clan of the entire Lanxia Federation!"
