Chapter 422 Mirror Flowers and Moon in the Water
"What do you mean?"
Upon hearing this, Yuichi Toyoda's tone lost its usual confident, all-powerful quality for the first time.
However, the next second, the mechanical dragons and the hundreds of robots exploded from the inside out!
A dazzling light emanated from this massive building!
The entire building, like a thin-skinned, large-filled bun, expanded rapidly, and then a towering mushroom cloud rose from the spot!
These nine mechanical dragons and hundreds of giant robots carried at least one hundred tons of explosives, many times more powerful than the explosives used to ambush the queen insect in Kangcheng!
It's important to know that, excluding nuclear weapons, the largest conventional warheads publicly disclosed by various countries have a yield equivalent to only a few tens of tons of TNT.
The simultaneous explosion of hundreds of tons of explosives here has a power exceeding that of the largest conventional warhead!
In an instant, the power of the explosion destroyed the entire hall, and the astonishing shockwave, carrying terrifying power, swept across everything within a radius of hundreds of meters!
However, Yuichi Toyoda didn't care about such losses.
In places ruled by highly advanced mechanical life forms, everything that can be manufactured industrially can be produced in a new batch in just a short time.
In fact, this hall was built in the last few days as a hunting ground for Cangnian and his group.
There were no important production areas or resource warehouses nearby, so destroying them wouldn't be a big deal.
Even mechanical dragons and robots are just consumables.
He originally thought he had made all the necessary preparations.
The robot army and the mechanical dragons are both extremely powerful.
However, since the fog only cleared today, the drones used to observe Cangnian and his group could not get too close, and they could only use infrared equipment to observe from a distance based on the temperature.
Therefore, the intelligence obtained was far from sufficient.
To ensure the plan went smoothly, he not only considered the possibility of Cang Nian suddenly disappearing from the tunnel, but also used space-type evolvers to restrict him.
Furthermore, as a final precaution, a large amount of explosives was installed inside the mechanical dragon and the robot, which could be detonated in one go.
Although this would cause the flesh and blood of Cang Nian and his companions to carbonize instantly, the bones should be able to be preserved.
As a mechanical life form, it lacks the arrogance of humans, and when formulating plans, it is devoid of any human emotion, with the sole requirement being to achieve its goals.
When Cang Nian and his group proved too powerful to be defeated by conventional means, he would not hesitate to make the wisest choice, even if it meant losing a lot of resources.
But the fearless expressions of Cang Nian and his group before the bomb exploded, and Bai Jue's mocking smile, made him uneasy.
Whoosh~!
Soon, a few kilometers away, a robot, with a trail of flames shooting out from behind, hurtled toward the center of the explosion!
Boom~!
The robot landed amidst the ruins, where it saw charred fresh meat, melted plates, and the scattered parts of a mechanical dragon.
But after searching around, they found no remains of any human evolver or evolved creature.
After seeing this, a scarlet light flashed in the robot's eyes.
……
"Haha! That guy must be furious!"
He'd never guess that we hadn't even entered their territory!
Meanwhile, a few kilometers away from the Moriguchi survivor base, Bai Jue stood with his hands on his hips, admiring the towering mushroom cloud and laughing heartily.
"Huh~?"
Cang Nian, on the other hand, looked at Tiger Mom and asked with concern.
Ouch~!
Tiger Mom looked very weak, but shook her head to indicate that she was not injured, just exhausted.
In fact, Cangnian and his group never entered the Senkou survivor base.
As early as when Yuichi Toyoda sent a drone to invite him, Cangnian had already made a plan and told Tiger Mom to carry it out.
The whole plan is very simple.
Tiger Mom's Phantom ability, at its most basic level one, is to summon incredibly realistic phantoms.
So, halfway there, Tiger Mom summoned the phantoms of the elite Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom.
This also includes the Cang Nian family, as well as the tigers in the forest.
It's just a simple phantom; summoning as many as you want doesn't consume much of the Tiger Mom's energy.
These phantom images are not only visually indistinguishable from the real thing, but they can also simulate details such as smell and temperature.
Therefore, even the most sophisticated equipment cannot distinguish between the real and the fake.
At the same time, a spatial portal unfolded behind the drone, with the little sable in front of everyone.
The portal is only visible from the front; from the side, it appears as a line, and from the back, there is nothing at all.
Therefore, the intangible army of phantoms crossed the spatial gate and followed behind the drones.
Their true forms were transported several kilometers away by the portal.
Next, Tiger Mom continued to control the phantom army, while key figures such as Cangnian took over their own phantoms.
And in this way, it doesn't take any toll on Tiger Mom.
That is why Cang Nian and his group acted so realistically, and Yi Chen, Bai Jue, Qin Changyi and others were able to talk to the other party without any flaws.
Because, except for not replacing the original body, it is already equivalent to the original body.
The only time when the costs were enormous was during the later major battles.
To avoid being exposed, everyone "logged in remotely" to their virtual forms during the battles against the mechanical dragons and robots.
Although most of the energy consumption is achieved by the phantom drawing spiritual energy from the outside world.
However, the consumption of hundreds of physical phantoms fighting was completely beyond what Tiger Mom, a newly evolved fourth-tier creature, could bear.
It was only because Tiger Dad shared his Black Flame Domain with Tiger Mom that Tiger Mom wasn't drained dry in an instant.
Even so, supporting the battle against hundreds of targets, although the vast majority were just going through the motions and only about ten were actually fighting, even with Tiger Dad's support, Tiger Mom's spiritual power was still insufficient.
In fact, even if Yuichi Toyoda hadn't left behind the bomb as a trump card, Cangnian and his group wouldn't have stayed there for long.
Tiger Mom can't hold on any longer.
Fortunately, the guy was so confident that he had the victory in his grasp that he popped a bottle of champagne in advance to give a heads-up.
Therefore, when Tiger Mom learned that the other side was going to blow up all the phantoms on her side, she quickly deactivated all the phantoms at the same time.
Otherwise, if hundreds of phantoms were to die simultaneously, the backlash would most likely cause Tiger Mom to perish.
It's worth noting that back when they were dealing with the Queen of Insects, the Black King Serpent phantom she summoned shattered in order to buy time for the Tiger Father to strike the enemy's head. The backlash caused the Tiger Mother to suffer from a splitting headache for quite some time.
If the phantoms all die this time, Tiger Mom's head will explode, and Cang Nian wouldn't be surprised.
Fortunately, this did not happen.
