Chapter 750 - 233: Prodigy Hunt List! Advent of the Mechanical Race, Iron Men Rebellion
Chapter 750: Chapter 233: Prodigy Hunt List! Advent of the Mechanical Race, Iron Men Rebellion
Caesar nodded, his gaze sharpening once more. "The immediate priority is to consolidate all our forces and face this crisis."
"Let’s assemble."
Qin Feng was brief. "You take command."
"Alright."
Caesar accepted the heavy responsibility without hesitation. "Time is short. I need to conduct a rather systematic military buildup in the shortest time possible. It’s highly challenging, but it should be manageable."
Having reached an agreement, the two immediately posted a highest-level emergency assembly announcement on the private forum of the Six Great Star Systems Alliance.
While waiting for the alliance members to gather, both men instinctively turned their attention back to the public forum for the entire warzone, wanting to check on the status of other alliances.
However, a newly refreshed battle report—one the system had forcibly highlighted in red—instantly made both of their pupils contract sharply.
[BATTLE REPORT: Chak Tai, ranked tenth on the personal Combat Power leaderboard, encountered the Alien Race Celestial Pride ’Stone Pan Mountain’ of the Stone Race in Star System 147. After a fierce three-minute battle, he was defeated and killed, and has been completely eliminated!]
"..."
Chak Tai!
Eliminated!
The expressions on both Qin Feng and Caesar’s faces became incredibly grim.
"Chak Tai..."
Qin Feng spoke slowly, his voice deep. "I remember him.
Right after I advanced to the Constant Star level, that guy already had a brilliant record of defeating a Constant Star-level Powerhouse of the same rank in a direct confrontation.
He probably broke through to the Constant Star level even earlier than the two of us.
In terms of accumulated cultivation and the scale of his Indestructible Projection, he was likely even stronger than us.
To think... he’d be killed and eliminated so quickly."
"Unbelievable."
Caesar was also deeply shaken. "It’s been barely more than ten minutes, and one of the top ten on the Combat Power leaderboard has already fallen.
It seems we’ve still underestimated the strength of these Ten Thousand Races’ Celestial Pride.
Any one of them would absolutely be considered a top-tier powerhouse within the Constant Star level."
The news left both of them deeply shaken.
Still, there were only ten of the Ten Thousand Races’ Celestial Pride, scattered across the vast, boundless warzone. The chances of encountering one were extremely low.
The truly imminent threat was the endless army of the Mechanical Race.
Caesar quickly composed himself, focusing all his attention on the enormous holographic screen unfurled before him.
His fingers danced across the screen, splitting into hundreds, even thousands, of Mental Power threads that connected to the Identity Jade Token of every alliance member rushing toward the assembly point. He began an unprecedented, large-scale, unified deployment and ad-hoc military buildup.
’Establish Battle Squads with a base of ten members each. Appoint one squad leader per squad.’
’One hundred squads will form a Company. Appoint one company commander and two deputy commanders.’
’Above that, we’ll need Regiment-level units, as well as disciplinary squads to maintain battlefield order, reconnaissance teams for intelligence gathering, and patrol teams...’
’...’
A stream of clear, efficient commands and organizational structures flowed from Caesar, transmitted to every single person in the alliance.
His talent in this area was truly unparalleled.
In an incredibly short time, he had managed to erect the framework of a war machine. It was a bit crude, but it had all the vital components.
"Order: All organized reconnaissance squads are to immediately use Subspace Teleportation, operating as individual units, and begin patrolling the three hundred star systems under our alliance’s control!"
"Mission objective: Locate the exact coordinates of any Mechanical Race lifeforms!"
"Attention! Your mission is reconnaissance only. Do not engage! The moment you find a target, report its coordinates and retreat immediately!"
"..."
As Caesar issued one command after another, the newly assembled alliance army began to turn, a precise and efficient war machine slowly grinding into motion.
As for Qin Feng, his eyes were glued to the public forum, monitoring the latest news in search of more information.
"The organizers are ruthless."
Qin Feng said with a sigh of resignation, "The information on the Jade Tokens is just the bare minimum. There are even some taunts mixed in. They left out a ton of hidden intelligence, like the fact that Mechanical Race lifeforms would appear in every single star system."
"..."
Qin Feng continued watching and soon spotted several new messages.
[Kapudo, ranked thirteenth on the Combat Power leaderboard, encountered a Shadow Race Celestial Pride. Fallen. Officially eliminated...]
[Raven, ranked third on the Combat Power leaderboard, encountered a Holy Spirit Fire Clan Celestial Pride. Defeated and fled. Has not yet fallen...]
[Combat Power leaderboard...]
"Hmm?"
’It looks like these Alien Race Celestial Pride are specifically hunting down those at the top of the Combat Power leaderboard.’
Qin Feng was surprised.
"No, it’s the points leaderboard!"
Caesar corrected.
’I see.’ Qin Feng grumbled. ’Another one of the organizers’ dirty tricks. There are way too many things they haven’t explained.’
"Recon has spotted signs of Mechanical Race lifeforms."
"Qin Feng, we need to move out now. There’s a Constant Star-level lifeform in every star system. That means three hundred Constant Star-level Mechanical Race lifeforms..."
"One wrong move and we could be eliminated."
Caesar’s expression was grave.
Qin Feng, on the other hand, had already donned his power armor, held the Star-devouring Spear, and activated the Subspace Transmission Network.
Inside every alliance, the same thing was happening.
The rise of every Star System Alliance had been built on slaughter. A vast number of Martial Artists had been eliminated, leaving only a tenth of the original participants in the competition. Now, facing a Mechanical Race force distributed across the star systems, every Star System Alliance was under immense pressure.
But even so, the Constant Star Martial Artists occupying the Star System Level Resource Points showed no intention of abandoning their positions to return and provide support.
They had already invested too much time in those Resource Points; the sunk cost was simply too high.
Meanwhile, on the Empire’s official livestream and the channels of various major tournament commentators, viewership and excitement surged to a new peak.
Martial Artists from all corners of the Human Race’s domain chattered excitedly, their scrolling comments flying across the screen, all expressing immense curiosity about the Mechanical Race lifeforms.
