321: Inventors come on stage
The glass behind him suddenly coalesced, returning to its original form, but Tang Ku did not care about that at the moment.
"You... did something to me?" Adolf said, his voice trembling.
Tang Ku smiled. "Knowing your name is Adolf, did you think I wouldn't be on guard against you? Although I am a monk, after experiencing so much life and death, do you think I would still be so naive?"
"But... this weapon... was designed and manufactured by a Saint, you... you cannot possibly withstand it!"
Tang Ku smiled. "There are three reasons why I can block this weapon's attack. First of all, even if a Saint makes a weapon, it must follow the Laws of the Heavenly Dao, and a weapon that defies the Laws of the Heavenly Dao theoretically does not exist. The power of this Sacred Light Mustard Cloud Cannon is indeed very strong; it can erase everything the ray touches at a material level, but... what it contains is actually a Law. Although I don't understand the specific principles behind it yet, in fact, I also know the power of the Law!"
Adolf looked at Tang Ku in shock, unable to speak.
"Secondly, I know a little bit about this weapon. It should be a weapon System from a spaceship built by Primal Celestial Lord, and you all seem to have not tapped into the full potential of this weapon; you might not even know what it actually is!"
Tang Ku narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "A weapon System that is fundamentally incomplete, while it may seem powerful, in my eyes, this power is not even as good as one of my fingers!"
He was telling the truth. In terms of destructive power, Tang Ku's Myriad Manifestations Tribulation Finger could achieve a similar effect, and perhaps even be stronger.
This Sacred Light Mustard Cloud Cannon falling into their hands could be described as a waste of a precious treasure.
"And the third point..." Tang Ku held Adolf up and said coldly, "That is, you were too eager for quick success and instant benefits. When you saw me, you desperately wanted to eliminate me to take revenge. You made the same mistake as in your previous life... Even if you had a little more patience, I wouldn't have won so easily and casually... The lives of the people in this city were your bargaining chip!"
Adolf was stunned upon hearing this, then couldn't help but smile bitterly, but then he chuckled coldly: "So what? You still can't kill me now. If I die, this body of the Doomsday Fortress will become a rampaging killing machine. No country will be able to stop its advance; it will kill all living beings in this world before it stops..."
"Heh, then you are truly a frog at the bottom of the well, because there is more than one person in this world who can stop this thing..."
Tang Ku swung his right fist and said coldly, "Keeping you... is too dangerous!"
Boom!
Adolf's entire head exploded into a spray of blood, just as he had shattered Erwin's head earlier.
The pathetic Devil Head ultimately failed to achieve his dream of unifying the world. Of course, with this guy's character, he was destined to fail forever in this lifetime.
Hum!
After Adolf's death, the massive Doomsday Fortress suddenly began to move again, its giant mechanical body constantly advancing towards the top of the mountain.
The last command Adolf gave it before he died was to destroy all life in the process of advancing.
Advance... destroy life; split apart, these were the two commands the Doomsday Fortress understood, and then it began to execute the command to advance.
"Hmm? Is it really going to go rogue?"
This thing's speed was very fast, and Tang Ku was soon transported out as a foreign object within the body.
Looking at the behemoth in front of him, Tang Ku suddenly used the Void Eye to scan it from top to bottom, and then couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "I clearly saw countless people in its core furnace just now, but why can't I see the life signs and signals of those people on it? This is truly strange!"
"That is because... its own life signal is too strong, covering up the signals of other ordinary lives..."
Tang Ku's pupils shrank involuntarily, and he turned around and threw a punch. This punch had considerable power, using the Heaven-Shaking move of the Great Wilderness Divine Fist. The powerful fist force spread along the air fluctuations towards the person behind him, but the opponent just waved his hand nonchalantly, and then a defensive shield composed of countless palm-sized hexagonal crystals appeared in front of him, blocking Tang Ku's attack.
Snap!
All the hexagonal crystals shattered instantly. Seeing the situation was not good, the newcomer retreated rapidly, and at the same time, set up more than a dozen layers of crystal defensive shields again, finally eliminating Tang Ku's fist force.
"Hmm, truly worthy of being Tang Sanzang. A guy who can make Darwin suffer setbacks is really not easy to deal with!"
The person opposite looked at Tang Ku and couldn't help but show a smile.
Tang Ku looked closely and saw that the person in front of him was of medium build and appeared quite thin. He had short, slightly curly brown hair, meticulously combed into a side part, and was wearing a very appropriate suit and leather shoes, dressed like a gentleman from high society. The only thing that was very incongruous was that he wore something like an energy detector from Dragon Ball on his right eye socket; the difference was that the lens was not square, but oval.
The image matched the legendary person perfectly...
Tang Ku said with a gloomy face, "You are... Nikola Tesla!"
"Heh, you actually know my name... Hmm, it seems that in another world, your knowledge is quite profound!"
The person opposite floated in mid-air and bowed slightly and politely to Tang Ku. "That's right, I am that inventor forgotten by the world, Nikola Tesla!"
Tang Ku shook his head and said, "You have not been forgotten by the world. In fact, in the era I am from, you are far more well-known than that opportunist named Edison. There is even an electric-powered car in this world that is named after you!"
Tesla said pleasantly surprised, "Really? Heh, that is my honor. I only hope that everything I create can become a ladder for human progress..."
Tang Ku said in a deep voice, "This Doomsday Fortress... is your doing, right?"
"Heh, that's not it!"
Tesla said disdainfully, "I don't have the habit of piling up technology with human lives. This thing was designed by the opportunist you mentioned, and these two war criminals are also his subordinates... Hmph, although his ideas are sometimes advanced, he completely acts against the Laws of the Heavenly Dao, and ultimately it is inferior!"
Tang Ku couldn't help but ask curiously, "So, you and him are still at odds? That's great. Can you find a way to stop this thing?"
Tesla smiled and said, "That's right, I am at odds with him, but now, after all, he is working for me. Since he has the heart to share the worries of our master, how could I stop him!"
Tang Ku said in a deep voice, "Human life is of paramount importance. Using the living beings of a country as a driving energy source, doesn't this count as going against the Laws of the Heavenly Dao?"
Tesla seemed not to care about this at all. He shook his head and said, "You didn't understand what I meant... This country... has nothing to do with me!"
