173: End of assessment
Time passed bit by bit.
In the last few days, the difficulty of the assessment soared daily.
Even Li Feng felt extremely strained.
If he hadn't been able to dispatch massive numbers of Troops for support at any time, his city would have fallen and its people perished long ago.
“Today is the last day.”
In the center of a huge, technologically advanced city, Li Feng sat in the command room, quietly looking at the 3D projection in front of him.
By now, he had unlocked the entire Island world.
Under the guidance of the main storyline, technology had also advanced from the Steam Age to the Technological Age.
At the same time, this city had expanded to a terrifying degree.
Four satellite cities had even been built around it, guarding it at the center.
The four satellite cities represented four military bases, all filled with high-tech weapons.
Nuclear weapons, laser weapons, ion weapons, dark matter weapons... In the sky, there weren't dense formations of Troops, but rather countless spaceships, each equipped with terrifying weaponry.
It could be said that with Li Feng's current technological capabilities, he could even break out of the surface and venture into space.
Through the 3D projection, one could see arrays of technological weapons poised and ready, awaiting the arrival of the monsters on the final day.
Inside the command room, groups of excellent generals with leadership acumen sat below Li Feng, also nervously watching the projection in front of them.
Li Feng waved his hand lightly, and the projection screen instantly changed.
A futuristic, technologically advanced city appeared on the screen.
Skyscrapers stood tall and dense within the city, and elevated highways connected the entire city.
On the wide roads, numerous maglev vehicles flew at different altitudes, either low or high, following intelligently preset routes.
Though numerous, they never appeared crowded, and naturally, there were no low-level accidents like traffic collisions.
“Can future technology really develop to this extent?”
Li Feng looked at the city, which had been built in just one month, and a sense of unreality welled up in his heart.
Both worlds he had lived in, before and after his transmigration, had entered the Technological Age and developed vigorously.
But whether it was the city's infrastructure or those terrifying technological weapons, they only existed in fantasy.
Yet here, those fantastical technological weapons had all become real, and there were many weapons that humanity had never even imagined.
This city was home to dozens of different intelligent races, totaling over ten million!
As Li Feng continuously explored the Island world, he discovered more and more mineral veins.
And the unlocking of technology accelerated the efficiency of surveying and mining these veins.
By now, tens of thousands of gold coins flowed in every second, and Li Feng had nowhere to spend them.
He could only find the Bearded Merchant and purchase a large number of slaves.
What amazed Li Feng was that tens of millions of slaves each possessed their own independent thoughts and memories.
This made Li Feng even more awestruck by the True God's power, to be able to achieve such a feat.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh... Just then, figures flew past outside the command room.
Li Feng glanced at them before retracting his gaze.
Those were the Twelfth-grade Troops he had acquired three days ago, the Light-Dark Mantises.
The Island world was ultimately an assessment for the Lord, and technology merely served as an auxiliary role.
Ultimately, it still relied on the strength of the Troops.
Li Feng's development speed was too fast, which led to him rarely using Troops, easily overwhelming everything with the slaves and weaponry of the Island world.
However, powerful Troops were still a formidable force that should not be underestimated.
Just one of these Twelfth-grade Light-Dark Mantises could easily destroy a fully armed satellite city.
These technological weapons possessed immense power, but their mobility was too poor.
Facing Twelfth-grade monsters with terrifying mobility, if there wasn't corresponding high-end combat power to delay them, they could easily be destroyed.
After exploring the Island world, Li Feng obtained over a thousand Troop blueprints, ranging from First-grade to Twelfth-grade, all available.
Among them, Li Feng acquired four Twelfth-grade Troop blueprints.
The Light-Dark Mantises were just one of them.
The reason there were so many Troop blueprints on the Island was naturally for the sake of the assessors.
After all, not everyone could summon Troops without cooldown.
Generally speaking, a Twelfth-grade Troop altar could only be summoned once during the assessment period, after which it would enter a long cooldown period.
Therefore, that True God had prepared four Twelfth-grade Troop blueprints, because among the monsters on the last day, there were ten Twelfth-grade undead monsters.
Four against ten, coupled with powerful technological weapons, if operated properly, the chances of victory were not small.
However, with Li Feng, everything changed.
He summoned over a thousand Light-Dark Mantises, with a hundred guarding each satellite city, and the rest protecting the main city.
As for the other three blueprints, Li Feng kept them.
He wanted to see if these Troop blueprints could be retained after exiting the assessment.
If they could, then he would make a huge profit!
Once he possessed Twelfth-grade Troop blueprints, his strength would increase to a terrifying degree.
Below the gods, he would be virtually unrivaled.
Even when facing an Overlord, he would have the confidence to confront them head-on.
“Roar!”
Just then, a terrifying roar came from afar.
The projection automatically switched.
Thick fog rose from the distant sea, and a gigantic bone dragon, over five hundred meters in size, flew out from within.
In its massive eye sockets, two large, blue-gold ghost fires burned and flickered.
Soon, nine more giant bone dragons flew out of the mist, continuously letting out terrifying roars that shook the sky.
Twelfth-grade Monster—Bone Dragon King!
Among undead monsters, they had almost reached the pinnacle, with only the legendary Mythical-grade undead Troops able to suppress them.
“What terrifying bone dragons, these are much more powerful than the hundred-meter-long bone dragons we killed before.”
Looking at the Bone Dragon Kings in the projection, one of the Lion-man generals couldn't help but exclaim.
Li Feng didn't speak, just watched calmly.
He possessed over a thousand Twelfth-grade Troops; unless legendary Mythical Troops appeared, there was absolutely no possibility of losing.
“Commanding Twelfth-grade Troops in battle is probably what most Lords dream of, and in this Island world, it’s allowed me to experience it early.”
Li Feng thought to himself, then pressed the dark red button in front of him, issuing the command for a full assault.
Boom!
A dazzling, thick beam of light shot out from the satellite city.
That was a long-charged dark matter cannon, powerful enough to easily make a city disappear.
Facing the sudden attack, the ten Bone Dragon Kings reacted extremely quickly.
Their bone wings flapped, and their massive bodies turned into afterimages, vanishing from sight.
Twelfth-grade, that was the limit of the mortal realm, possessing incredible individual power.
If Li Feng's Technological Age could advance further, it could still pose a threat to them.
But now, it was absolutely impossible!
However, Li Feng didn't care; the ultimate weapon in his hand wasn't technological weapons, but Troops!
The next moment, Light-Dark Mantises flew out from the satellite city, swarming forward.
Facing hundreds of Twelfth-grade Troops, the undead army couldn't withstand it at all.
Undead monsters above Tenth-grade were massacred frantically, utterly helpless.
Even the Twelfth-grade Bone Dragon Kings quickly fell under the absolute disadvantage in numbers.
As for the massive numbers of low-grade undead monsters, they were cleared on a large scale by technological weapons.
This war lasted an entire night.
When the last batch of monsters was cleared, the voice of Waterman Bengka sounded in Li Feng's ears...
