Chapter 273 - Spear of Destruction
Chapter 273: Spear of Destruction
“Spear of Destruction?”
Lin Feng’s expression was solemn. Longbetham had reminded him a few times. Of course he knew about the Spear of Destruction.
At this moment, the Spear of Destruction appeared in the hand of this destruction robot. It slashed down fiercely at such a close distance.
Swish.
How massive was Lin Feng’s Tidal Combat Body?
Even if he dodged, it was impossible for him to completely avoid this Spear of Destruction. With a light slash from the Spear of Destruction, his arm ignited like a blazing flame.
The countless cells on Lin Feng’s arm seemed to be burned by scorching flames. There was a miraculous power in the Spear of Destruction that could annihilate everything.
Hence, when he was struck by the Spear of Destruction, countless cells on Lin Feng’s arm were annihilated. His arm was originally very large, but in just a few seconds, it was festering at a visible speed, like a withering flower, quickly dissipating.
Bang.
Lin Feng kicked out and sent the destruction robot flying. He tried to change the arrangement of the cells on his arm, switching to all kinds of forms, but it was useless. The terrifying annihilative power inside was rapidly destroying the cells in Lin Feng’s body.
In just a few seconds, Lin Feng’s combat body had lost at least two meters.
“Abandon it!”
Without any hesitation, Lin Feng gave up on the part of his arm that had been struck by the Spear of Destruction. His original 182-meter combat body instantly shrank to 178 meters, losing a total of four meters.
The Tidal Combat Body was based on size. The larger the body, the tighter the cell arrangement, and the more cells there were, the more energy it could accommodate, and the stronger the combat body was.
If its size and number of cells decreased, it meant that it had suffered permanent trauma, and its strength would decrease.
This was the case for Lin Feng now. Previously, due to the Light of Destruction, he had already suffered permanent damage, and his body had become slightly smaller. Now that he was injured again, his body shrank further.
It was not that easy to cultivate it back again.
However, if he wanted to survive and not suffer greater damage, Lin Feng would have to give up a portion of his combat body. Otherwise, the strange annihilative power on the Spear of Destruction could even destroy Lin Feng’s entire combat body.
“What a strange power!”
Lin Feng was shocked. The power of the Spear of Destruction was too terrifying. This was just a slight graze. Wouldn’t it be even more troublesome if his vital parts were struck?
He would even be severely injured instantly.
For the first time, Lin Feng felt that this Spear of Destruction could really threaten his life.
The robot that used the Spear of Destruction seemed to be in “pain”. Although the robot was expressionless, Lin Feng’s mental power could sense the unique “emotional” fluctuations of the destructive robot.
This was no longer just a cold robot. Instead, it felt a little like life.
“Lin Feng, you must obtain the Spear of Destruction. This artificial intelligence is already fusing with the robot, but it has yet to complete fusion. It is not a true mechanical lifeform yet.”
“Once it becomes a mechanical lifeform, it can completely fuse the Spear of Destruction. In your world, I am afraid even the Nine Sages combined would not be able to deal with it.”
“Therefore, you must take this opportunity to obtain the Spear of Destruction.”
Lin Feng frowned. He knew how powerful the Spear of Destruction was, but this was still the result of incomplete fusion. If it was completely fused, how strong would it be?
According to Longbetham, even the Nine Sages combined would not be able to deal with the robot that had fused the Spear of Destruction.
Longbetham seemed to take this Spear of Destruction very seriously, and so did the robots. Otherwise, why would it fuse the Spear of Destruction?
Moreover, the annihilative power of the Spear of Destruction was simply terrifying. It was not that easy for Lin Feng to obtain the Spear of Destruction.
“Longbetham, do you have a way to deal with this robot? It hasn’t become a mechanical lifeform yet, and you’re already a true mechanical lifeform!”
Lin Feng felt that Longbetham seemed to be hiding something, especially about the Spear of Destruction. In fact, Longbetham had been equivocating and did not explain it in detail.
Longbetham was silent for a moment before finally saying in a low voice, “This artificial intelligence is evolving into a mechanical lifeform. Only living beings can completely fuse with the Spear of Destruction. This is also the real reason why it so insists on becoming a mechanical lifeform. In short, no matter the price, you must obtain the Spear of Destruction!”
“As for this robot, it has not become a mechanical lifeform. I can indeed deal with it, but you have to let me enter its control core. When the time comes, I will be able to completely control its core.”
“How can I let you enter the control core?”
“It is very simple. You only need to place the communicator on its head, and I will be able to enter its control core. Remember, you do not have many chances. You may only have one chance. If it leaves with the Spear of Destruction, or unleashes the annihilative power in the Spear of Destruction. I will not be able to save you then.”
Lin Feng was actually a little hesitant. Should he trust Longbetham?
Although he had become Longbetham’s so-called “subject of evaluation”, after so long, Lin Feng still knew very little about Longbetham. He only knew that Longbetham was a mechanical lifeform, and that was because Longbetham itself had said so.
Right now, he was facing a critical moment, a life-or-death moment. If Longbetham failed to enter the control core of this artificial intelligence, Lin Feng would face a direct attack from the Spear of Destruction. The consequences would be unthinkable.
At this moment, there was not much time left for Lin Feng to consider. The robot stood up again. Lin Feng could clearly feel that the robot was somewhat “angry”.
Red light kept flickering in the robot’s red eyes. Then, its mechanical arm was simply repaired, and also became able to move freely.
Moreover, the Spear of Destruction was already in the robot’s hand, emitting a terrifying glint.
The robot’s speed became faster and faster. In the end, it was practically sprinting. It raised the Spear of Destruction in its hand and charged towards Lin Feng.
Lin Feng knew that this was the critical battle!
His Tidal Combat Body began to shake violently, and then his cells arranged themselves in a frenzy. Although the Tidal Combat Body did not expand, the arrangement of his cells was already completely different from before.
This was the strongest defense state of the Tidal Combat Body. With layers over layers of cells, it was enough to face any power.
Although Lin Feng did not make Longbetham any promises, he had already made his choice with his actions.
“Come at me.” Lin Feng muttered softly, his eyes flashing with madness.
His eyes were fixed on the Spear of Destruction. The only thing that threatened him was the Spear of Destruction, and a bold idea was already forming in his mind.
Boom.
Lin Feng moved as well. His massive body shot towards the destruction robot like a cannonball.
Lin Feng raised his arm up high. Then, his arm rapidly expanded, and he grabbed hard at the Spear of Destruction in the robot’s hand.
Bang.
Lin Feng felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His entire body was trembling violently. The Spear of Destruction easily pierced through his palm, and pierced straight through Lin Feng’s left shoulder.
In that instant, Lin Feng even felt that he was already facing death. It was as if he would be completely annihilated and disappear from this world in the next moment.
