Chapter 350 Contact
The granular creatures want to save the void.
It didn't know why, maybe it was because it had felt that kind of despair before.
It feels that the void should be full of vitality.
This is the final battle.
The intelligent factory maintenance system left behind by Huangwo transformed a total of 101 cities into fortresses filled with weapons.
The granular creatures believe they have a chance of winning.
In fact, the ruin fortresses built by the body now are mainly used to clear the creatures in the void. They do not have strong protection, and these ruin fortresses are very scattered.
There are only a dozen or so around the static core, and some are under construction.
Although the static core itself moves, the granular creatures have never seen it have any attack power.
If it can't protect itself... then it's indeed possible to blow it up.
The intelligent system set off. Each city had a diameter of several kilometers and they looked like a huge army.
It's just that due to the long distance, it takes them some time to reach the target location.
Along the way, the intelligent system encountered some ruined fortresses of the shells. These fortresses were clearing out creatures in the void. The moment they encountered them, the intelligent system destroyed these fortresses.
However, the actions of the intelligent system caused a reaction from the source of stillness, and the ruined fortresses floating outside all gathered towards the core.
Moreover, the shells around the core also accelerated their construction speed, as they knew that the threat was approaching.
The particle creature expressed its concern about this. It felt that if it continued like this, the chances of winning would become smaller and smaller, so it tried to give the system some information to make them feel a sense of crisis and speed up.
But no matter what...it will take some time.
After several Ersh years, the system's urban troops finally arrived at the source of stillness.
After all, the wild vortex has been moving away from the source of stillness, and the system is using a modified engine to fly towards the target as quickly as possible.
Along the way, they continued to destroy all the ruined fortresses they encountered until they reached their target.
There are more than sixty ruined fortresses gathered around the static core, and some are still under construction.
When the system's troops approached within one million kilometers, the fortresses began to fire heavily at them.
During this period of time, the body recycled almost all the surrounding resources...that is, those floating objects and made them into ammunition.
Now, they fired wildly, pouring huge amounts of barrages onto the system's cities.
It’s just that the system already has perfect protection, and when the barrage approaches, each city deploys their defenses.
This is an interception fire network invented by the system itself. Countless sharp warheads are fired from around the city to accurately intercept every approaching threat.
At the same time, the cities began firing at each other.
Hundreds of millions of small machines swarmed out of each city like a beehive, dodging enemy fire as they advanced toward the static core.
The fortress of the shell noticed these machines and began to attack them. A large number of projectiles immediately flew towards the mechanical army, and a large number of machines instantly disappeared in the fierce firepower.
Meanwhile, the system's cities are moving forward.
Countless machines flew around these cities, making each city look like it was surrounded by a storm.
The storm made up of machines blocked the enemy's barrage of bullets and also protected the city as it approached... a hundred thousand kilometers.
At this time, the Husk's troops increased their firepower.
Some fortresses have begun to activate new weapons.
This is a weapon that the particle creatures have never seen before. When it is activated, many buildings will turn black.
Then, the black color began to spread around, finally covering the entire fortress.
The granular creatures could not see through the darkness what was happening inside the fortress, and after a fortress turned completely black... they rushed out.
The black covering the fortress 'boils' as the city moves, making it look like a billowing cloud of black smoke.
All the cities immediately launched heavy fire attacks on the rushing black forces, but the barrage of bullets flew into the black smoke without any reaction and were completely unable to stop the enemy.
Then... a mass of black rushed in front of the city.
When it approached a range of more than a thousand kilometers, it exploded, and a large amount of black spread around like waves, affecting three nearby cities.
These cities and the machines surrounding them stopped all movement in an instant... they were frozen.
The rotating machines collided with each other because they were stopped for different periods of time. The city itself was no longer active and all its functions stopped working.
This surprised the granular creatures.
Since these cities are built by permanently active things, it should not be so easy to make them stop.
Perhaps the Source of Stillness still has a way to still these perpetually moving things, but it will come at a considerable cost.
That's why we used the method of slowly gathering them together instead of directly building a bunch of these fortress static bombs and bombing them everywhere.
But at what cost?
While the granular creature was thinking, ten fortresses had already approached the city and exploded, and they were able to affect two or three cities each time.
These cities came to a standstill, and the cities behind them did not dare to move forward and began to retreat.
At this time, the rest of the fortress was also turning dark.
The particle creatures believed that the Source of Stillness wanted to turn all fortresses into this state in order to defeat opponents that outnumbered it.
The intelligent systems in the city will not wait to die. The machines surrounding the city have now dispersed. They no longer protect the city, but fly quickly towards the static core.
Many of these machines are equipped with "active vibration devices".
As long as they get close to the static core and place these devices on it, they can break the surface of the static core, but whether they can destroy the entire core is still unknown.
They can only take a gamble.
Soon, these blackened fortresses that were impervious to any attack began to paralyze cities one after another.
But since they were unable to intercept the machines, a large number of them bypassed them and flew to the surface of the static core.
The machines needed to bury the device underground to achieve the best effect, but before they could start digging, the core surface cracked.
Countless bodies emerged from the cracked ground, and they attacked the machines with all kinds of weapons.
The machines and the bodies on the surface were caught in a fierce war, with bullet rain falling from the sky and rising from the ground.
Countless bodies and machines were destroyed every second. Watching this battle, the granular creatures were surprised and confused.
It was surprised that such a huge number of troops were hidden here.
But it's also strange, since there are so many troops, why not transform the static core into something like another fortress?
If the surface here is also covered with weapons, machines will definitely not be able to approach.
There may be some reason why it cannot be modified.
Finding that reason is probably the key to victory.
But now... all the cities have come to a standstill, and only these machines are left.
