80: You're so beautiful, machine!

Wu Hao, who had escaped from the Orc Tribe, accidentally trespassed into the territory of the Night Elves and was captured.

Wu Hao told the Elf King all the secrets of the Transmigrators.

Although Wu Hao wasn't highly educated, he had at least attended a vocational college and played the World of Warcraft game, so he understood various game skills, leveling up, and so on.

Deeply liked by the Night Elves, Wu Hao used modern concepts to help the Night Elves develop and grow stronger.

Wu Hao followed them to learn Night Elf magic.

This learning process lasted twenty years, and with his charm, he married over twenty Night Elf wives and fathered more than a hundred half-human, half-Night Elf children.

He became an Honorary Elder of the Night Elves.

His status was second only to the Clan Chief and the five Law Enforcement Elders.

He told the Clan Chief: when the time was ripe, and the passage between the two continents opened again, he could be responsible for negotiating with the enemy, becoming a collaborator to help the Eternal Continent's enemies invade, and at the same time, when the Human Alliance and Longhan Kingdom were attacked head-on, they could launch a sneak attack from behind.

By then, the Night Elves could become the agents of the Eternal Continent, managing the entire Chaotic Continent.

The Elf King was very satisfied with this strategy.

Wu Hao dreamed of destroying the Longhan Kingdom, killing Chen Xu, and reminiscing about Shen Nanzhi's scent... In the Eternal Night Empire, Nightmare was furious: "That good-for-nothing Scorching Sun! I send him countless noble Bloodlines and top-grade karmic fire meteorites every year, yet he can't even defeat one woman."

Blood Skull, one of the Ten Great Demon Generals, said: "Your Majesty, there's no need to worry. I will lead my Blood Demon army, cross the Great Chasm, and directly destroy the Sun Moon Empire!"

Nightmare shook his head: "Our Demon Race is naturally afraid of Holy Light. Fighting across the Great Chasm would weaken our strength a hundredfold; it's not worth it."

One of the Ten Great Demon Generals, the Heart Devourer, nicknamed 'Desire Demoness,' chuckled: "Your Majesty, I have an idea. We can find a way to rescue White Ember. He is definitely the person in this world who most wants to kill Dawn Moon. As long as he recovers his strength, he can regain control of the Corruption army."

Emperor Nightmare's eyes lit up: "Excellent idea! It's decided then. Send Shadow Demon to lead his shadow blades to rescue him."

A spatial shadow flickered, and Shadow Demon appeared out of thin air: "Your subordinate will definitely complete the mission!!"

With that, he vanished into the air once more.

Nightmare was extremely wary of Shadow Demon. This fellow's strength was not inferior to his own, and he wasn't as obsequious as the other Demon Generals.

So, this time, it could be said to kill two birds with one stone.

If the mission was completed, that would be for the best. If not, then Shadow Demon would remain in the Sun Moon Empire forever!!

...The alarm at the Longhan Kingdom's border pierced through the morning mist, its sharp ringing making the gears of the steam watchtower tremble slightly.

Chen Xu looked at the intelligence report before him—the Human Alliance's regular army had crossed the border, led by the new Unicorn Legion Commander Loran Raymond, who had just turned twenty, and was said to be the grandson of the Legendary Mage Nolan.

Chen Xu curled his lips into a cold smile: "Twenty years of peace has bred some fellows who don't know the immensity of heaven and earth. As the Great Man said, 'Fight one punch to avoid a hundred punches.' If we don't teach them a lesson this time, they will only become more aggressive."

Just in time, Chen Xu's mecha [shadow blade]'s latest upgraded model—the Ghost Warrior—had just been completed. It was time to test its combat capabilities.

Chen Xu personally led the First Mecha Battle Group, whose commander was Hu Zhenguo, Hu Zhenxing's fourth son.

Thousands of warriors stood in neat formation along the border defense line, wearing red and white special jumpsuits, with the most striking feature being the folding belt around their waists.

Loran Raymond, riding a unicorn whose entire body was engulfed in Holy Fire, walked at the forefront of the army, raising his longsword inlaid with a holy magic stone, and pointed it at Chen Xu: "Isn't this the famous Speaker Chen? I'm here to inform you that the Human Alliance wants this newly discovered meteoritic ore vein. How can a small city like yours, established only twenty years ago, be so greedy as to occupy this mine? These are the continent's resources, not yours!"

Chen Xu remained very calm: "Do you know that I signed a peace treaty with your king? You have no right to start a war, and furthermore, this ore vein is within my Longhan territory. You are currently standing on my Longhan's land. For the sake of the Legendary Mage Nolan, I will overlook this invasion this time. You should go back."

"Hahahaha, hahahaha!" Raymond laughed wildly, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world, tilting his head back.

As the commander of the "Apocalypse Knights," he led the continent's most elite Magical Warrior legion. This force, composed of ten thousand elite Magical Warriors, had every member reaching a Realm comparable to Soul Transformation, and the unicorns they rode were legendary Sacred Beasts.

The greatsword in Raymond's hand, "Demon Breaker," was even inlaid with a legendary gem given to him by his grandfather Nolan, sealing the Soul of an ancient Thunder Dragon within it. Each swing would be accompanied by a thunder arc.

"Peace treaty?" Raymond sneered, pointing the tip of his sword directly at Chen Xu, "That's something from twenty years ago. My Apocalypse Knights don't recognize it. Today, I only give you two choices: either give up this ore vein, or become a dead Soul under my sword!"

Chen Xu said coldly: "Must you be so aggressive? Perhaps we can develop it together."

"Develop it together?" Raymond scoffed, "With your mere five hundred thousand people? You can't even compare to our vassal towns! You're not worthy of developing it with us. Stop rambling, either get lost or die!"

Chen Xu smiled faintly: "Since that's the case, then let's have a duel. If you win, the ore vein is yours. If you lose, then take your people and scram."

"Duel?" Raymond almost fell off his unicorn, "You, a Great Mage, actually dare to duel me? Do you know that melee fighters can often kill mages above their Realm, and I am a Great Magical Warrior, two Realms higher than you. Your magic can't even break my shield! A word of warning, don't blame me if you die!"

Chen Xu calmly said: "Come on!"

"Seeking death!"

Before he finished speaking, Raymond's figure vanished from his original spot, leaving only an afterimage in the air, his greatsword descending with an Aura that seemed to tear space apart.

Chen Xu hurriedly cast a Wind Wing on himself! To increase his movement speed.

Then, with a Phantom Step, he directly dodged Raymond's fatal blow.

But the Qi released by the sword's edge still cut a gash, and blood flowed down Chen Xu's arm.

"It's still not too late to surrender!" Raymond looked down at Chen Xu, the tip of his sword pointing at the opponent's throat.

Chen Xu did not answer, but quickly formed hand Seals, releasing three high-level spells in a row: "Flame Impact! Frost Lance! Thunder's Wrath!"

Crimson flames roared out like an enraged Dragon; cold air condensed into crystalline ice spears, and purple lightning as thick as a bucket descended from the sky.

The three high-level spells erupted almost simultaneously.

Raymond's sword body seemed to casually slash horizontally and vertically, and wherever the sword's edge passed, it actually tore through the elemental torrent—the flames were split in half, pouring to both sides, the ice spears crashed against the blade and exploded into a sky full of ice mist, and even the lightning descending from the sky was cut in half by a single sword strike!!

"It's useless!" Raymond laughed arrogantly, "My 'Demon Breaker' specializes in countering your flashy magic!"

He teleported forward, this time even faster, his sword's edge aimed directly at Chen Xu's heart.

In the nick of time, Chen Xu suddenly slapped the golden belt on his waist: "shadow blade armor, activate!"

In an instant, the rhomboid gem in the center of the belt burst forth with dazzling golden light, covering his entire body like liquid sun.

Black metallic particles spewed out from the belt, rapidly reassembling in the golden light.

First, gauntlets enveloped his fingers, followed by streamlined armguards that spread upwards like living things, and shoulder pads that clicked with mechanical engagement when they expanded.

Dark red energy patterns appeared on the chest plate, the armor belt at his waist automatically adjusted its tightness, and the leg armor continuously optimized the flexibility of its joints as it extended.

The entire process took only an instant. When the last faceplate clicked into place with a "clang," the helmet's visor suddenly glowed with crimson light.

Chen Xu was completely encased in this futuristic black battle armor.

The surface of the armor flowed with a mercury-like luster, every edge optimized for aerodynamics, and the slightly bulging energy core on his chest emitted a faint blue light.

Most terrifying were the plasma blades that popped out from the outer sides of his forearms, their high-frequency vibrating blades cutting delicate ripples in the surrounding air.

Raymond's fatal blow descended with the might of tearing space.

The high-frequency plasma blades on the outer sides of the shadow blade armor's arms erupted with a piercing hum, and two blue-white energy blades slashed out in a crisscross pattern at speeds imperceptible to the naked eye.

"Clang—!"

A deafening metallic crash, dazzling sparks erupted the moment the plasma blades contacted the greatsword, and the high-frequency vibrating energy field completely dispersed the Qi on the sword blade.

Two completely different energy shockwaves caused trees within a hundred-meter radius to snap cleanly.

The recoil from the sword hilt made Raymond's arms numb. He looked at the metal monster before him in disbelief: "What, what is this thing!!"

Beneath the mecha mask, Chen Xu's voice became deep and powerful: "This is called a mecha, specifically designed to counter your flashy Qi. Now, it's my turn."

Raymond looked at the mecha on Chen Xu with envy and jealousy: "Mecha, you are so beautiful! Such a thing is a waste on you. Give it to me!!"
