Yue Zhong chuckled, "Alright! When I, Niu Meng, reach the elites of the army, I will not forget everybody."
He then handed the niceties to Niu Meng to handle, while he stepped into the Galastar Virtual Network, sourcing for treasures.
"Star Luo Technique, this can allow the flesh body to be trained to the Type 9 stage, it only requires 10 million points. Cheap!"
"Type 7 human slave, 10 million points for 1. Type 7 White-winged human slave, 30 million points for 1."
"Type 6 human slave, 100,000 points for 1."
"..."
"So many slaves! They're all from foreign races, there are actually Type 7 and Type 6 humans caught and sold here! This Mech Kingdom is truly terrifying."
Yue Zhong looked through the list and felt incredibly shocked.
A Type 7 Divine Warrior was an invincible force on Earth. Even for the planet Uros, where cultivation was rife, the Saint Lord and most of the other Elders would be at that level.
And yet, such powerhouses were being sold here like slaves, and it was not just a single one. The true power of the Mech Kingdom was incredibly terrifying.
Through Niu Meng's memories, Yue Zhong knew that there were nanochips set to go off in the brains of these slaves.
The moment any of them dared to harbor any ill intents, they would be killed by the nano bombs.
Most of the slaves that had been caught were already wiped clean of their memories and brainwashed. They were practically blank pieces of paper, with no inkling of their past, and only knew to swear fealty to their owners.
Without such measures, just considering the blood feud between these slaves and the Mech Kingdom, it would not be possible to truly subdue such powerhouses.
"What a pity, there's no Type 8 ones. Otherwise, if I buy one and kill him, I might be able to reach the Type 8 realm. But then again, even if there was one, I probably can't afford it. The price should be in the billions. Forget it, let's buy a few Type 7 powerhouses and bring them to Earth, they can hold the fort there."
Just as he was excited and prepared to buy, his face fell, as he remembered a problem, "No good, the Type 7 experts of this world cannot go through the Gate of hell. Even if I purchase them, they can't go to Earth."
"That is to say, the strongest I can purchase would be the Type 6 experts. However, in the exchange list, there are also treasures that can raise the flesh body. I can only groom a few Type 6 slaves with those treasures, otherwise, if a Mech purchase so many, it would raise suspicions."
With a thought, Yue Zhong pulled out the list and chose 3 stunning beauties in the Type 6 realm.
After that, he then purchased a B-Grade Inexhaustible Power Source, as well as a B-Grade Energy Shield, followed by the Star Luo Technique, and a number of treasures to boost the flesh body. After that, he exited from the Virtual Network.
When he came out from the network, he began to watch the battles through the display screens earnestly.
The ongoing battle was extremely cruel and violent, with beams and abilities flying everywhere. Each of the Type 7 Mutant Beasts was enraged, and their innate abilities were being cast over the entire region.
Yue Zhong saw a number of Type 7 Mechs being frozen before blasted by the flames from the Scarlet Flame Dragon, melting into puddles of alloy liquid.
The intense battle continued for 2 days and 2 nights, before the Mutant Beasts, under the numerous injured and countless deaths, retreated at the sight of the never-ending backup from the Mech Kingdom.
The Type 8 Winged-Wyrm King had already comprehended a domain and was suppressing Murphyte. However, Murphyte was able to hold his own through various means and was able to resist the attacks. The Winged-Wyrm King had no choice but to retreat as well.
Although the Type 8 Winged-Wyrm King held the advantage in the battle between the upper echelons, its subordinates were being slaughtered by the Mech Kingdom's army of Mech Beasts.
The Type 8 Mutant Beast also know of the might of the Mech Kingdom, if it chose to fight on, it would perish in the end.
The Mech Kingdom's Army had their land-based machines as well as aerial ones. There were even powerful Mech Beasts that could take on the Type 5, Type 6 and even Type 7 Mutant Beasts.
Once the number of Type 5 Mech Beasts reached a certain figure, it would be threatening to the Type 8 Winged-Wyrm King as well.
After the intense battle, there were only corpses and countless mech parts laying everywhere on the battlefield.
Numerous Mechs poured onto the battlefield, retrieving the metal parts as well as the corpses of the Mutant Beasts, cleaning up the area.
The parts could be reused under proper treatment, while the Mutant Beasts corpses could be used in the production of other weapons and armors.
Not too long after, on top of the huge fort, there was a burst of radiant light, as a handsome Mech stepped out, exuding pressure.
"I'm Murphyte, now, everyone, heed my orders. Niu Meng, for killing a Type 7 Mutant Beasts, killing a number of Type 6 Mutant Beasts… You will be promoted to Mech Baron. You have been drafted into the First Army, 5th Battalion. Zhang Mo, for killing…."
Hearing his words, all the Mechs around Yue Zhong looked at him enviously.
The Mech nobility had prestige in the Kingdom and was usually comprised of Type 7 or some rare talented Type 6 Mechs. All these nobility could reside within the Mech Capital where the Mech Emperor lived and had direct command over their own fleet of 50,000 Mech Beasts.
Furthermore, they had special privileges, if they saw any other Mech warriors to their liking, they could organize exchanges, and there would be no qualms or objections from the lower classes.
Because of this, many Mech warriors fought hard to become nobility.
In this battle, other than Yue Zhong, or rather, 'Niu Meng', no one else was promoted to nobility. Even the 2nd place who had killed 4 Type 6 Mutant Beasts had not received a promotion.
Murphyte swept Yue Zhong a gaze, as he spoke sternly, "Niu Meng, from today on, you have to work hard for the Mech Emperor, as well as the Mech Kingdom."
Niu Meng got down on one knee, "Yes! From today, I will strive to battle for the honor and glory of the Mech Kingdom and our great Majesty!"
Murphyte nodded slightly, "Disperse! Head back to your camps."
"Yes! Fort Lord!"
The rest of the Mechs got down on their knees as well.
Murphyte's original body was the entire fort itself, thus everyone had referred to him as the Fort Lord. Only those of the Mech Lord class could be addressed as Lords.
The moment Murphyte's figure disappeared, one of the rooms of the metal city opened up, as a number of black mechanical balls shot out towards those Mechs that were injured.
Seeing those balls, all the sentient Mechs had expressions of glee on their faces. When the balls arrived in front of them, they quickly rushed to absorb the ball.
These black balls contained superior cells, and while the sentient Mechs could make use of their smart chips to produce new cells, it would eat into their base strength. Whereas the new, superior cells provided by the Mech Kingdom were much better alternatives.
Yue Zhong controlled Niu Meng to soar into the sky, and exerted a suction force on the nearby black balls, absorbing them into his body.
Upon assimilating with the cells, Niu Meng regained his peak strength, and in fact, continued to break through to the peak-Type 6 realm.
"So overbearing!"
"Damn it! If he wasn't a nobility, I would not let him off."
"What the hell, isn't that too much?!"
"..."
When the sentient Mechs below saw this, they could not believe it.
Yue Zhong did not care, in any case, they were his enemies, regardless of how they viewed him, it was irrelevant.
A distance away, on a huge battleship, 20 Type 7 Mechs were observing.
One of them, a blond-haired Mech frowned, "Stinky brat, he actually snatched the cells of others."
One Mech that looked similar to a black man, laughed out loud, his eyes flashing with a teasing look, "Haha! So what? We are the noble class, those are just ordinary folk. They should sacrifice for us. Halledor, aren't you just jealous that Type 6 kid managed to kill a Type 7 Mutant Beast?"
Halledor's face sunk as he snorted coldly, "Just a Type 6 ant, what can he do? He was just lucky!"
