616: traitor?

“Are you saying, to let this artificial intelligence serve as the core consciousness to provide intelligent support for Cybertron?”

Ge Gang found Tang Ku's whimsical idea rather incredible, but soon he realized something. Looking up into the depths of the Void Realm, he couldn't help but sigh, “So you had already thought of a retreat for me?”

Tang Ku chuckled, “The Saint of this world only exists in false stories. The only one who could think of and accomplish this is our New Saint, isn't that right?”

Ge Gang nodded, “What you say makes a lot of sense... Hmm, but not right now. If we want to restore this planet, we still need to decide the outcome of the battle. The core consciousness and energy are both indispensable. But even if the planet is formed, and even if it has the ability to create new life, it won't be the Cybertron of the past... What I want to do is to resurrect the people who have already passed away...”

“Then when... when do we start this battle?” Tang Ku asked.

“It's not time yet. Your strength hasn't consolidated, so our battle wouldn't be equal. Besides, I have many things left unfinished, for instance, purging the traitors within our ranks... Hmm, you're right, among the scientists I brought in, there are some traitors who are not under my control...”

Ge Gang clapped his hands, and a middle-aged man in a suit appeared before them. His face wore a look of dullness and panic, but upon seeing Ge Gang, he bowed slightly and said, “My Lord, regarding that guy Tesla... Uh... So Tang Sanzang has already arrived?”

“Who are you?” Tang Ku frowned slightly.

“I am Edison, Tesla's deputy... Well, of course, that's no longer the case...” the middle-aged man chuckled.

“The traitor you mentioned... is Tesla?” Tang Ku asked in surprise, “What did he do?”

“He secretly reached an agreement with the Pseudo-Saint Legion to let them into this world!” Edison said.

“Are you serious?” Tang Ku said, shocked, “But why would he do that? What benefit does this have for him?”

“Because Tesla's scientific research has always been ahead of others!” Ge Gang said in a deep voice, “Whether in strength or intelligence, he is far superior to other scientists. If I'm not mistaken... he wants to study how the Pseudo-Saints reached such numbers... He wants to mass-produce Law-level experts by researching the enemy!”

Tang Ku was stunned, then immediately thought of the Yin soldiers being controlled in the underworld, and said in a deep voice, “That's right, that's very possible...”

“It's not just possible, he's already doing it. Otherwise, where do you think the Pseudo-Saint spies you've seen came from?” Edison narrowed his eyes slightly, “I've been by his side for so long, I know his actions all too well. His personality is much more radical than it used to be, so he acts even more extremely!”

“Why do I feel like you're gloating?” Tang Ku frowned slightly.

“Heh, of course I'm gloating!” Edison admitted without hesitation, “Back in that era, the two of us were like stars in the bright night sky, on opposite sides. It's just that I was the one who ultimately triumphed, not him. But now... heh, just thinking about having to be his deputy makes me angry! Oh, My Lord, I'm not saying your decision was wrong, but for me personally... I don't like that extreme guy!”

“Yeah, if he were as slick as you, those inventions that changed the world wouldn't have had anything to do with you! Isn't that right?” Tang Ku curled his lip, seemingly unimpressed by Edison.

“You're right, and that's exactly my attitude toward him!” Edison said, “Sometimes I quite like him, because his persistence can lead to great progress in research, but because of his stubbornness, it makes people feel very unpleasant... Oh, of course, he's still very talented at taking revenge on me now!”

“Enough, I don't like how you behave either!” Ge Gang said coldly, “But your ability to get things done is indeed strong, which is why I use you... Put away those thoughts of revenge, otherwise, you will be destroyed before he is!”

Edison was left speechless and slowly retreated.

“Go prepare to receive the Yin soldiers in the underworld!” Ge Gang ordered, “But remember, do not act rashly until I give you the order, understand?”

Edison nodded in agreement and then respectfully left.

“With such high-pressure policies, aren't you afraid of forcing him to rebel too?” Tang Ku laughed.

“What's there to be afraid of?” Ge Gang sneered, “He alone can't stir up any trouble. Rest assured, I am monitoring him very strictly. Edison's reputation in the history of your Earth isn't very good... Hmm, since you're already here, I don't need to do anything to deal with Tesla; you can go! After all, your cultivation needs to be consolidated, and you need to evolve what the System has given you into your own!”

“Alright, I'll go... Hmm, where is Tesla now? The underworld?” Tang Ku asked.

“No, he is currently hiding on Earth's satellite, the thing you call the Moon. He has established some kind of powerful mechanical Empire inside the Moon. Although he lacks artificial intelligence for assistance, all the people he recruited are talents in this field... The operational mechanism established in the underworld was also invented by him, so this person's power can no longer be ignored. Are you confident in dealing with him?” Ge Gang asked.

“If I'm not confident in dealing with a mere Tesla, then I'd be better off surrendering to you sooner!” Tang Ku rolled his eyes and said, “I'm heading to the Moon now to bring him and that Nobel of his back... Hmm, do you want them dead or alive?”

“Dead or alive, it doesn't matter... Hmm, taking a spaceship is too slow, I'll send you there...”

As he spoke, Ge Gang beckoned, and hundreds of diamond-shaped crystals flew in from outside. These crystals were about the size of an adult's palm, flashing with blue electric arcs, and at the same time, it seemed that some kind of magnetic force was constantly making them combine and assemble.

In the blink of an eye, these crystal-like things had circled around Tang Ku hundreds of times, and then Tang Ku suddenly felt his vision blur. When he came to his senses, he was already on the Moon.

There was no need to doubt it, because the huge blue planet above his head was slowly moving along its orbit.

“Is this Space Laws?” Tang Ku couldn't help but frown slightly, “So when Energy Laws reach their peak, they can really simulate other Laws? No, that's not right, this doesn't seem to be part of the Energy Laws; this was formed by pure scientific power...”

Looking up, on a crater on this side of the Moon, a metal object that completely didn't belong to the Moon was towering out!

“Is that the place?” Tang Ku frowned slightly.
