Chapter 274: Codename Destroyer

The annihilative power of the Spear of Destruction spread rapidly. The speed was incredible, but Lin Feng gritted his teeth and allowed the cells in his body to be annihilated continuously.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he quickly approached the robot’s head and stuck the communicator on it.

“Longbetham, it’s your turn!”

Lin Feng growled. An invisible fluctuation instantly entered the robot’s head. At the same time, Lin Feng suddenly grabbed the Spear of Destruction with his other hand.

His hands were burning. The terrifying annihilative power kept ravaging the cells in Lin Feng’s body. Lin Feng’s hands seemed to be rapidly turning into ashes at a visible speed.

This scene made everyone nervous. Although they did not understand what was going on, from the looks of it, Lin Feng must have reached the most critical moment.

“Let go!”

Lin Feng roared. He exerted force on his Tidal Combat Body and actually pulled out the Spear of Destruction inch by inch with both hands. The robot, on the other hand, had a blank expression on its face, as if it was motionless.

Boom.

Finally, Lin Feng gripped the Spear of Destruction. However, before he could heave a sigh of relief, the cells in his body were rapidly annihilated.

“Oh no!”

Lin Feng gritted his teeth. He could only give up on some of the cells that had been pierced by the Spear of Destruction previously. This time, he was going all out, and was even prepared to enter an internecine exchange.

In reality, both parties were indeed injured. Lin Feng looked at the robot and saw that it was motionless. Clearly, Longbetham had succeeded. However, it was still uncertain if Longbetham could take over the robot’s control core.

Lin Feng, on the other hand, was seriously injured. He had been struck by the Spear of Destruction. Even though his combat body was very strong, it could not withstand the annihilation of his cells.

Many of Lin Feng’s cells were almost annihilated and necrotic on a large scale. He had to abandon them immediately. Otherwise, the destructive power would continue to spread. By then, it would probably be too late for Lin Feng to abandon them, even if he wanted to.

“Abandon!”

Lin Feng gritted his teeth. He could not bear to do it. There were simply too many cells that had been invaded by the annihilative power this time. He had abandoned all of them at once, and suffered severe damage almost immediately.

His combat body, which was originally 178 meters long, immediately shrank to only 150 meters when Lin Feng decided to abandon some of his cells.

Having abandoned about 28 meters of his combat body, it was evident how serious the damage the Spear of Destruction had dealt to Lin Feng was.

If this happened a few more times, even with the Tidal Combat Body, Lin Feng would probably not be able to resist it.

“Spear of Destruction?”

Lin Feng lowered his head and looked at the Spear of Destruction in his hand. The entire Spear of Destruction was more than ten meters long. It looked ordinary, but Lin Feng had been severely injured by it. Added on to the fact that he had been severely injured by the Light of Destruction previously, Lin Feng had lost about 54 meters of his combat body since he came to this ruin.

Losing a quarter of his combat body was definitely a heavy loss, but Lin Feng was also very happy to obtain this Spear of Destruction. This was a product of the first civilization that even Longbetham valued greatly. With such a terrifying power, if he studied it thoroughly, it would also greatly increase Lin Feng’s strength.

However, Lin Feng did not dare to study the Spear of Destruction without guidance. He had heard from Longbetham that the other robot seemed to be fusing the Spear of Destruction, hoping to unleash its full power.

It only failed at the last step after encountering Lin Feng and Longbetham.

Longbetham was probably the only one who knew how to fuse the Spear of Destruction.

Time passed slowly, but there was still no news from Longbetham. Lin Feng was a little anxious. If Longbetham had not asked Lin Feng to wait, he would even have destroyed the destructive robot in front of him directly.

Actually, although this destructive robot was very strong, and perhaps comparable to an emperor-level demon, it still could not gain any advantage against Lin Feng’s Tidal Combat Body.

If they entered a war of attrition, Lin Feng would definitely be able to defeat this robot.

This also gave Lin Feng a direct understanding of his current strength. At the very least, he was not inferior to ordinary demon emperors. In other words, Lin Feng was now entirely comparable to a Sage!

He was not a Sage, but he had the combat power of a Sage!

Of course, that was Lin Feng’s strength when he had the 200-meter combat body. Now that he had lost a quarter of his combat body, his strength was only three-quarters of what it was before.

Fortunately, Lin Feng could cultivate it back again. He only needed to devour a large amount of energy to quickly improve his combat body.

The robot did not move, and Lin Feng held the Spear of Destruction in both hands. Even his massive body was much shorter. This made the Hoarfrost King, the martial artists of the Brimstone Base, and even the generals in the military command hall very nervous. They did not know how the battle was going.

About three minutes later, the robot finally moved.

“Lin Feng, it is settled.”

“Settled?”

Longbetham’s voice appeared in Lin Feng’s head, but Lin Feng could not tell that Longbetham had dealt with this robot by looking at it.

“It was just a little away from fusing with the Spear of Destruction. Unfortunately, it is not a true mechanical lifeform, but only artificial intelligence. No matter how intelligent it is, it is just a program. Therefore, I entered its control core and naturally took over it with ease. I have already modified its program. It is just an intelligent robot, and obeys your commands now. You are its master now.”

“I’m its owner?”

Lin Feng was moved by the thought. He knew very well what this meant. Even without the Spear of Destruction, this robot was still comparable to an ordinary demon emperor. Previously, it could actually fight Lin Feng to a standstill.

If he had such a robot subordinate comparable to a demon emperor, it would be of great benefit to both the entire human society and to Lin Feng.

No wonder Longbetham did not want Lin Feng to destroy the robot. It turned out that it wanted to control the robot to be Lin Feng’s subordinate.

“What is your name?” Lin Feng asked the robot.

“Master, my codename is Destroyer!”

Lin Feng’s heart skipped a beat. It was indeed a killing machine. This codename sounded very unusual.

“What do you rely on as a driving force?”

“Energy!”

“How much energy would you require?”

“I have an energy converter in my body that can convert various kinds of energy at all times, including cosmic rays, star power, energy ores, and so on.”

“You can control this ruin?”

“Since I was created, I have some control over the base.”

Through understanding, Lin Feng also gradually understood what kind of existence the Destroyer was. It was a killing machine specially created by the third civilization. Moreover, it was extremely compatible with the Spear of Destruction. The third civilization had even created it in order to truly utilize the power within the Spear of Destruction.

Unfortunately, for some reason, they failed in the end, and the Destroyer was sealed. However, intelligence gradually developed in the program of the Destroyer. After billions of years, for some unknown reason, “consciousness” was born within it.

The Destroyer’s intelligent program was even eager to become a real lifeform. This was how everything after came to pass.

Now, Longbetham took over the Destroyer’s control core. It had already lost its intelligence, and was only a program that was completely under Lin Feng’s command.

Perhaps after losing its intelligence, the Destroyer’s strength would be much weaker, but there would no longer be any risk. It would completely obey Lin Feng’s commands. With something gained and something loss, Lin Feng had obtained the greatest benefit.
