Liu Yun stood in front of the godsword brave Universe battleship, which was under construction. This battleship was not only a symbol of his strength but also a solid backing for him to explore the Universe and protect his home.
However, after confirming that the battleship's various Systems had been debugged, he decided to leave, as the construction of the battleship could not be completed overnight. He reached into the core of the new base and retrieved the fully charged Mechanical Race Clone, beginning to plan for more distant matters.
Now that the base had been upgraded, the Mechanical Race Clone's energy had also received a more powerful replenishment, and the crystal ball's energy had reached one-millionth of its total capacity.
The Clone's original body was incredibly powerful, and one-millionth was already a very good result, especially since it was the energy accumulated after two months of continuous charging. Liu Yun was already very satisfied!
Of course, Liu Yun could also try to build some God of War-tier combat robots; building a dozen or so would not be a problem. But if he wanted to mass-produce God of War-tier combat robots and battleships, the biggest issue he faced was the insufficient supply of Materials.
Liu Yun only needed to use his technological capabilities to quickly control the entire human society. This was what Liu Yun had always emphasized: super-strong technological capabilities could quickly break the balance of power in human society, and the ability to influence human society was the most terrifying aspect of the mechanical base.
In this process, Liu Yun would become the center of all storms, easily acquiring endless resources.
"Teleportation Gate, open to Monster Town," Liu Yun ordered softly. Instantly, the air around him rippled, and a beam of light enveloped him. The next moment, he appeared at the old base site in Monster Town.
In reality, this place had not been abandoned; it was just that most things had been moved, except for the defense System. At a critical moment, it would still be an important retreat for them.
"It seems this place needs some new planning," Liu Yun thought to himself. He had several Mechanical Race Clones maintain patrols and updated the firing points, just in case he couldn't make it in Jiangnan City, he would still have a place to escape.
He then left, passed the base's inspection, and returned to the base city. He thought it was time to go back to his villa.
"What is Little Red doing now? Is she throwing a tantrum again? I told her to guard the house, but I don't know if she listened to me."
Liu Yun thought of his battle pet, the Undying Bird Little Red, and felt a bit amused. This time when he went out, he didn't take her with him, and she threw a tantrum, completely ignoring Liu Yun.
Before leaving, Liu Yun had asked Little Red to guard the house, but he didn't know how well Little Red was performing the task. He had Cell Evolution Fluid, which was also useful for Beast Race, and in the future, he could slowly evolve her to the point where she could speak.
"How can the female lead of this book not be able to speak human language!"
Liu Yun smiled whenever he thought of Little Red and walked straight back. At this moment, a message came from the crystal on his chest.
"Warning, your residence has been attacked, and the stationed combat unit, Undying Bird, has been killed!"
Liu Yun's smile instantly froze, and his heart tightened. The message from the crystal on his chest was like a bolt from the blue, making him disbelieving. The Undying Bird Little Red, his most beloved battle pet, had been attacked during his absence, and… killed?
While a storm raged in Liu Yun's heart, a fierce battle had just concluded on the battlefield at his villa.
The battle began on a peaceful afternoon. The Undying Bird Little Red was circling above the villa, guarding the territory. But suddenly, several uninvited guests, under the instruction of the HR Alliance, arrived at Liu Yun's residence.
Little Red saw this and thought, how dare they break in! She fiercely pounced down, intending to drive these people away. She didn't understand what the HR Alliance was.
"Chirp…"
Little Red relentlessly attacked the four people. The four people, however, recognized Little Red and frequently called her name, but Little Red was not familiar with them.
"It's just a battle pet, probably leftover merchandise from Liu Yun, not worth much. Let's all go up and kill it!"
Yang Xiaolong became enraged and furious. This Little Red was really going for the kill, and the others largely agreed.
So Ruby was the first to attack. Her large red scythe drew a brilliant arc in the air, carrying the power to tear space, and went straight for Little Red. Little Red flapped her wings and flew high, avoiding the fatal blow, while simultaneously spewing scorching flames from her mouth, attempting to force the enemies back.
But the battle was far from over. Yang Xiaolong followed closely, her figure like a golden lightning bolt. The gauntlets on her fists gleamed with dazzling light, and each punch was accompanied by a deafening sonic boom, striking at Little Red's vital points. Little Red nimbly dodged, her wings beating the air, stirring up waves of heat, trying to force back this powerful close-combat enemy with a firestorm.
Buleika, meanwhile, looked for an opportunity. Her black tight-fitting combat suit blended with the night, with only her cold eyes and the straight sword tightly held in her hand betraying her presence. Her figure was ghostly, silently approaching Little Red. She swung her sword, aiming directly at her heart. Little Red, relying on her keen instincts, dodged at the last moment, her flame wings striking the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust and sparks.
Finally, with a gentle wave of the rose rapier in her hand, a complex carved pattern appeared in the air, like an invisible net, slowly closing in on Little Red.
Poor Little Red sensed the danger but was already trapped. The power of the carving gradually restricted its movements, and its flames also became dim.
Just at this moment of life and death, Little Red erupted with unprecedented power. She roared to the sky, her flame wings suddenly spreading open, as if to ignite the entire sky. A powerful force surged from within her, instantly breaking free from the carving's restraints, and the flames surged again, engulfing the surrounding enemies.
However, this was merely a final burst of energy. With the tacit cooperation of Ruby, Yang Xiaolong, Buleika, and Snow Mud, Little Red ultimately fell, tragically sacrificing herself!
Ruby was still a bit embarrassed; she hadn't intended to kill it, after all, a battle pet was considered Liu Yun's property.
"Isn't what we're doing wrong? We should have left it with a breath!"
Her words made the other three shake their heads continuously; they didn't think they were wrong.
"Even if Liu Yun is a God of War, he shouldn't keep such a fierce Beast General within the base. What if it rushes out and kills people? Our killing it is also self-defense, don't worry, we'll be fine!"
Snow Mud said so, and her words were not wrong. However, Little Red was completely obedient to Liu Yun, and apart from throwing tantrums, she never attacked humans! This battle with the four-person team was merely her duty, and Liu Yun would never let it go unpunished.
The Old Ancestor Grinda from next door, wearing high heels, walked over quickly, looking at Little Red, who lay on the ground, having breathed her last, with a grim expression.
"You came to ask for help, how could you do this? Never mind, I'll pay this money for you!"
Although she didn't think it was a big deal, a battle pet was, after all, a Martial Artist's property, and many of the flowers and plants in this villa had also been burned. Be prepared to pay for the damages.
Liu Yun rushed to the villa in a state of anxiety, and the sight before him instantly plunged him into an icy abyss. Little Red, who should have been vibrant and soaring in the sky, now lay quietly there, her feathers stained with bloodstains, her eyes, which once glowed with fiery light, tightly closed, never to open again.
"Little Red…" Liu Yun's voice trembled as he slowly approached, unable to believe what he was seeing. He knelt down, gently cradling Little Red's body, feeling only the cold touch and the life that no longer pulsed.
Tears streamed down, blurring his vision. He hugged Little Red tightly, as if to transfer all his warmth and strength to her, but he could no longer call back the friend who had accompanied him in battle and through countless days and nights.
Even with the Mechanical Race Clone, Little Red could not be saved. The female lead died just like that, and Liu Yun roared in fury!
"I will make you pay for this blood debt!"
