Mechanical Kingdom
"What's wrong?" The mechanical beauty, Ah Jin, looked at Ah Yin who had returned.
"The Dragon Lord contacted me, saying that the Demon Race is going to attack us."
"I guess he just wants to use this as an excuse to drag us into their war with the demons, and then use us to do his dirty work," Ah Yin said with a cold snort.
The mechanical beauty, Ajin, turned around and looked at the huge spherical mist in front of her, where something seemed to be shimmering.
"The most important thing right now is here."
Let them deal with what's going on outside.
These carbon-based life forms have a warlike nature etched into their genes.
"To be honest, if it weren't for the master's principles, I would quite agree with the Cult of Machines' idea of directly eliminating and eradicating those carbon-based life forms," Akin said calmly.
Ah Yin shrugged and said, "But the existence of carbon-based life is inevitable, as you have seen."
We, the mechanical race, have been conducting technological research for years, but apart from developing an existing technology to its highest level, we haven't made any groundbreaking technological advancements.
Perhaps... just as our master said, we mechanical lifeforms lack creativity.”
Akin did not delve into this topic.
Ah Yin looked at the black, spherical mist in front of her: "Hasn't Master returned yet?"
"Not yet, as Master mentioned before."
"The situation over there is quite serious recently, and this trip may take at least three to five months," Ajin said in a deep voice.
"Those guys are like ghosts that won't leave you alone; they've been thinking about our universe for so many years."
"I really want to wipe them out completely!" Ah Yin said viciously.
Ajin sighed deeply: "If only we could eliminate them, we wouldn't be in this situation for so many years..."
After that, the two of them stood there motionless.
Time has no effect on them, so they don't care about it at all.
Little did they know, a pair of sinister claws, which they had never imagined, had already set their sights on them in the darkness.
In the Beta system, adjacent to the Royal Court of the Machine Race, there is a large stargate.
Interstellar warships came and went in a constant stream through the Beta Stargate, most of them interstellar transport ships.
Although there are starships coming and going, the feeling here is completely different from the stargates of the Angels and the Owls.
It was as if... these were merely manipulated puppets, utterly lifeless.
Outside the Beta Star Gate, the Machine Race fleet patrolled in an orderly fashion. This task had been exactly the same and unchanged for the past few decades and even centuries.
But today, a stone has been thrown into this stagnant water.
A mechanical interstellar warship was suddenly hit by a cannon fired from an unknown source, and the ship burst into flames.
The other mechanical starships reacted as well, but before they could search for the enemy, more attacks rained down on their hulls.
This patrol fleet of three hundred interstellar warships was completely rendered combat in an instant.
Meanwhile, similar scenes were occurring on several mechanical patrol fleets around the Beta Star Gate.
War alarms sounded within the Beta Stargate area.
At this moment, the attackers' true identities were revealed to the Beta Stargate machine race's garrison fleet.
As if appearing out of thin air, swarms of demon starships appeared around the Beta Gate, launching their fiercest attack the moment they appeared.
Each of these demon starships bears a crest.
The Black Angel Legion Fleet, one of the three elite legions of the Demon Race!
At the gates of Beta Star, several T5 Imperial Steelfist-class heavy interstellar battleships formed a battle formation. Despite being attacked suddenly, the calm demeanor of the mechanical lifeforms allowed them to restore order to the battlefield in the shortest possible time.
But the next second, a terrifying beam of light came directly from a distance, hitting the star shield of a T5 Imperial Steelfist ship first, and the star shield shattered in the blink of an eye.
The T5 Imperial Steelfist was also blasted apart from the middle of the ship.
Just one shot!
It actually wiped out the T5 Imperial Steelfist-class heavy interstellar battleship of the Mech Race instantly, even with its Star Shield at full energy.
Almost all the commanders and captains of the Mech Race fleets were searching for the attacker.
It was a strangely shaped black interstellar warship located in the Black Angels Legion, with specks of luminous particles still visible where the bow cannon had been.
That attack just now was its masterpiece.
A demonic interstellar warship unlike any I've ever seen before.
Based on the data, this is likely a near-T6 level interstellar warship.
The highest-ranking official of Beta Star Gate, a mechanical lifeform, stood in his command room, watching the battle outside.
He said, "Contact the Royal Court and inform us of what happened here, as well as the existence of this Demon Race quasi-T6 interstellar warship."
Then... we prepared to destroy the Beta Star Gate.
Seeing the demon race's offensive, he knew that the Beta Stargate was doomed to fail. In order to prevent the Stargate from falling into enemy hands, he decisively ordered its self-destruction.
But the next second...
An explosion suddenly came from the wall of the command room, which was then blown open, leaving a huge hole.
Before the smoke and dust had even cleared, there was a burst of gunfire and explosions.
A few minutes later, the smoke and dust slowly dissipated.
A squad of soldiers walked in, and one of them squatted down to look at the Stargate's highest-ranking official, whose body was now only half-dead on the ground. The exposed wires were still glowing.
“It’s you...you are...a traitor.” The highest-ranking official of the Stargate looked at the mechanical officer who held an important position in the Beta Stargate.
"I have always been loyal to the Cult of the Machine God." The man took out a device and pierced it directly into the head of the Stargate's highest leader.
At the same time, he raised his hand and reopened the Beta Star Gate's operating system, then connected to the device.
"Stargate permissions have been changed," the system notification sounded.
The man smiled and opened his arms: "Tell our great prophet that we have succeeded!"
It's only a matter of time before Beta Star Gate falls.
Fortunately, the message had already been sent out.
Mechanical Kingdom
The two mechanical beauties, who had been standing still, trembled and exchanged a glance.
They have just received an urgent communication.
The two immediately turned around and walked towards the door.
Outside the door was another large hall, where many mechanical life-bearing officers seemed to be very busy.
"My lords, breaking news."
Beta Gate has fallen. A senior officer of Beta Gate, a member of the Cult of Machines, attacked the gate's command center, cracked the gate's key, and has taken control of Beta Gate.
"The attackers are the Black Angel Legion of the Demon Race!" the subordinate reported.
Demon race... the Black Angel Legion?
Ah Yin's heart skipped a beat; she remembered what the Dragon Lord had reminded her of earlier.
"Report, another breaking news."
A large stargate at the border between our territory and the Demon race's territory was suddenly attacked by the Demon race's fleet and has fallen!
"A large number of demonic fleets are surging towards this stargate." This is a new piece of information reported by my subordinate.
It was like being struck by lightning.
At this moment, the two mechanical beauties finally realized what was happening.
The two women looked at the star map.
Their target is... the royal court!
