581. Chapter 564: Monkey VS Reincarnator
On the Demon Subduing Division Cloud Boat, above Warhead Island, dozens of tortoise shell-shaped virtual screens floated before Lilith. The screens displayed various data for the Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mecha.
"Warning, Mecha energy consumption 43%! Energy output overloaded..."
"Warning, Mecha wear and tear 56%!"
"Warning, Nanobots damage 35%."
Many parts of the Mecha displayed on the screens glowed yellow, indicating they were nearing their critical point. Clearly, the battle against the Monkey was not as easy as it seemed for this Mecha.
The more precise a machine, the higher its failure rate during operation. After being modified with Adamantium, the micro Nanobots' hardness and toughness increased by ten thousand percent.
Even so, in every clash with the Monkey, tens of thousands of Nanobots were directly scrapped due to being unable to withstand the Energy overload.
As time passed, the various values on the screens continuously climbed. Seeing the yellow glow on the Mecha grow denser, gradually approaching the critical point of the alert line, Lilith rapidly operated on the Light Screen with both hands. Of course, she wasn't commanding the Mecha in combat. Such high-intensity combat was entirely controlled by the Optical Computer formed by Nanobots, reacting at the microsecond level.
The Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mecha was loaded with martial arts, combat, and fighting techniques from hundreds of Various Worlds and tens of thousands of schools. It even included the Combat Data of Reincarnators from Various Worlds.
However, only an Artificial Intelligence Optical Computer with microsecond reaction speed could keep up with this level of combat intensity.
What Lilith was doing was exporting and saving the Combat Data of the Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mecha for subsequent experiments.
This Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mecha was developed by Ivan Vanko. The Prototype was an Anti-Tang Song Mecha developed by Tony Stark.
Under Ivan Vanko's continuous modifications, this Mecha became a modular combat Mecha. The Nanobots and X Mutant Genes inside the Mecha could adaptively match countermeasures based on the enemy.
After Vegapunk took over, he integrated his research on the Seraphim Combat Body into the Mecha.
It could be said that this set of Mecha's Combat Capability had completely broken the Immortal-Mortal Boundary. The only things restricting it were perhaps its Reserve Energy and Structural Integrity.
An Arc Reactor capable of supplying a large City with electricity for an entire year couldn't even support one set of Mecha for ten minutes of full-power combat.
After less than half an hour of high-intensity combat, the several Arc Reactors inside the Mecha, as well as its Reserve Energy, were already nearing the alert line.
There were alternative Energy Sources for the Arc Reactor. For example, carving Spirit Gathering Arrays on various parts of the Mecha to gather Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to supply the Mecha for combat was one method.
However, Spirit Gathering Arrays were first constrained by the Heaven and Earth Environment, as not every Universe had Spiritual Energy. Second, even if Spirit Gathering Arrays were carved onto every Nanobot, the ratio between Energy absorption and output was still disproportionate.
Other Energy Sources either had equipment that was too large, Energy output that didn't match, or were not cost-effective.
Doctor Octopus, Otto Gunther Octavius, after the Artificial Sun, began researching the experiment of shrinking Stars. Once the experiment was successful, using a Star as the Energy output core could solve the Mecha's Energy shortage problem.
Meanwhile, during the high-intensity combat with the Monkey, even with Talisman Empowerment inscribed, the Structural Integrity of the Mecha's body, composed of Adamantium and Vibranium Alloy, had worn down by over fifty percent.
This was only possible because the Nanobots were constantly patching up deficiencies. Whenever the Structural Integrity of the outermost layer of Nanobot body reached its critical point, it would swap position with the Nanobots in the layer below, allowing the Mecha's Strength to barely avoid falling into the Red Alert Line.
"How long can the Mero Mero no Mi ability hold him!"
Watching the Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Robot Body release pink Sweetheart-shaped bubbles through the Light Screen, Lilith held a lollipop in her mouth, operating the data on the Light Screen with both hands while sparing a glance at the small robot with a round head beside her.
Pythagoras's hands were also constantly controlling the panel in front of him. In Space, tens of thousands of miles away, hundreds of Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mechas were separating from a ten-thousand-meter mothership, smashing towards the Ground like meteorites.
"No experiment data, unable to determine!" A green information stream flashed in Pythagoras's eyes.
After releasing the pink bubbles, the Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mecha rapidly approached the Monkey. Opening its mouth, it sprayed a stream of extreme cold breath towards the Monkey. Wherever the white airflow passed, visible frost flowers formed in the air.
The Monkey bore the brunt of it. The Monkey, whose body was covered in a layer of stone shell, was now wrapped in a layer of Ice Layer several meters thick. In just a breath's time, that Ice Layer expanded to dozens of meters in area, like an Ice Mountain smashing towards the Ground.
Immersed in those pink bubbles, the Monkey felt as if he had returned to the beginning of the Thirteen Protectors of Flower-Fruit Mountain's gathering, to the female monkeys all over the mountain, to his running in the sunset, to his lost youth.
"Hmph! You think you can trap me with just this trick!"
The Monkey gave a cold laugh, easily shattering the illusion in his mind!
A golden light suddenly exploded from within the Ice Layer. A fist punched out from the golden light, directly hitting the chest of the Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mecha.
The Monkey's speed was too fast. Even the Optical Computer with microsecond reaction speed had no method to control the Mecha to avoid this strike.
In an instant, the Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mecha's Robot Body exploded in the air!
Hundreds of millions of Nanobots scattered outwards with a roar. The moment they scattered, these Nanobots immediately combined to form new Mecha parts, whistling as they attempted to reassemble again.
"That monk always said there are eighty-four thousand little bugs in a bowl of water. I never took it seriously, but I didn't expect there really were such little things!"
Two golden lights shot out from the Monkey's eyes. His figure flashed, and he extended his arm, seemingly pinching something in the empty air.
Magic Power condensed at the Monkey's fingertip. With a forceful squeeze, an invisible spark shot out from his fingertip.
"Hoo!"
Seeing the silver liquid converging, the Monkey opened his mouth and sprayed a stream of true fire. The blazing flames instantly enveloped the converging Nanobots.
The modified Nanobots were capable of resisting high temperature of one hundred thousand degrees. But the fire the Monkey sprayed was no ordinary thing. It was the Samadhi True Fire refined from Essence, Qi, Spirit, possessing immense force. Burning rivers and boiling seas were trivial matters. With the Monkey's cultivation base, this fire he refined, upon encountering anything, would cling to it like a maggot to bone. Even if an immortal touched a bit, their physical body and nascent divinity would be completely refined, unable to be extinguished.
Crackling sounds!
The Monkey's mouthful of Samadhi True Fire sprayed out, instantly covering the high altitude.
Looking from below, one could only see a mass of flames and thick smoke hundreds of acres in size rolling and tumbling in the high altitude. The entire Sky was like fiery clouds, the night directly burned through.
At this moment, the hundreds of Mechas descending from the Space Mothership also arrived at this Battlefield. Dozens of kilometers away, these Mechas launched attacks towards the Monkey.
Among these Mechas were ranged attack Mechas that released extremely destructive power optic blasts from their chests and eyes.
There were also those who pushed their thrusters to full horsepower, wanting to engage in close combat with the Monkey.
Some Mechas even threw Black Hole Grenades, releasing Gravitational Waves and tractor beams, primarily focusing on attack diversity.
The Monkey grinned, watching the hundreds of Mechas descend from the Sky. His monkey face was full of mockery: "Just these few? I might not have enough fun tonight!"
The Monkey reached behind his back, grabbed a handful of Monkey Hair, and sprayed a mouthful of Primordial Qi onto the Monkey Hair. The floating Monkey Hair instantly transformed into individual Monkey figures. These Monkeys shot up into the Sky, actively meeting and charging towards the group of Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mechas descending from the Sky.
Hundreds of Monkeys and hundreds of Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mechas engaged in battle.
Upon realizing that these Mechas were composed of countless little bugs, the clones the Monkey had split off also found a countermeasure: using Thunder-Fire Spells against these Mechas.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! After only a dozen instants of engagement, dozens of Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mechas were blown up on the spot!
The Monkey's main body stood in the air, slightly bored, picking his ear. He turned his head, his gaze falling upon the human team on the Imperial Highway below, a hint of fierce light flashing in his eyes.
"Humanity, die!"
In the darkness, a golden light was seen slicing through the Sky like a sword, heading directly towards the direction of the Central Army Dragon Carriage.
"Protect the Lord!"
"Protect the Lord!"
"Protect the Emperor!"
"Formation!"
At this moment, the Xuanjia Army, Left and Right Wei Guards, and Jinwu Guard Armored Guards protecting the Dragon Carriage all formed up. The military formation condensed, transforming into divine beasts and ferocious beasts, leaping forth to intercept the golden light.
Among the divine beasts formed by these military formations were Winged Fierce Tigers, Qilins, and Qiongqis, as well as the Vermilion Bird Divine Bird that could burn all things. However, the divine beasts formed by military formations were ultimately somewhat different from true divine beasts. Or rather, before the King of Ten Thousand Monsters, the Monkey, these ferocious beasts and divine beasts were just a matter of a few fists.
Many divine beasts had even been his food on the plate, his meal in the mouth.
The golden light scattered the Military Qi Divine Beasts that blocked its path one by one. These divine beasts, formed by the combined Blood Qi Strength of the army, couldn't even slow down the Monkey's speed.
The golden light arrived above the Dragon Carriage, suddenly stopping, revealing the Monkey's main body. He wore armor, with four great banners stuck in his back. He was short in stature, but his entire body exuded monstrous Monster Qi, his momentum domineering and peerless.
"Not big in size, but this Monster Qi is rarely seen in five hundred years!"
Beside the Dragon Carriage, Five Elements Fist, dressed in the brocade robes of a Demon Subduing Division Military Officer, looked up at the Monkey. His fists were clenched, looking eager to try.
"You want to try! I advise you not to seek death, you are not his Rival!" Beside Five Elements Fist, Empty Lord, sitting on the carriage shaft, pressed one hand on his man-sized Sword Casket, watching the Monkey in mid-air with a grave expression.
"Is he really that fierce? Is he as fierce as that pig?" Five Elements Fist asked, somewhat disbelievingly.
The crowd of Reincarnators and Exorcists gathered around the Dragon Carriage looked towards Empty Lord upon hearing this.
They had all witnessed how fierce that Pig Demon named Zhu Ganglie was. Could it be that this Monkey was even fiercer than that pig? How could that be?
"Ten times fiercer than that pig!"
Empty Lord swiped his two fingers across his eyes. The black Monster Qi emanating from the Monkey, like giant pythons, made him involuntarily swallow a mouthful of saliva.
"What are you looking at?"
The Monkey, sensing something, lowered his head to look at Empty Lord, his fangs bared, grinning.
"Nothing, nothing. The moonlight is beautiful tonight!" Empty Lord's face stiffened, and his body couldn't help but shrink back.
The Monkey turned his head to look at the Sky obscured by dark clouds, his gaze falling upon the Dragon Carriage below and the surrounding crowd of Armored Guards and Exorcists. Evil Fire surged in his heart. Thinking of the destroyed Flower and Fruit Mountain, his Killing Intent surged.
"Not bad! The moonlight is strong tonight, perfect for sending you on your way!"
"Die! Die! Die!"
The Monkey roared, suddenly swinging his arm in the Sky. The staff in his hand grew against the wind, instantly transforming into a giant pillar, crushing down towards the Ground!
Boom! The air within dozens of miles exploded. Under the surging Staff Wind, the endless soil vibrated, turning into countless long dragons that shot up into the Sky.
This single strike, crushing down horizontally, was far more domineering and mighty than any Divine Ability or Military Formation. The strength within it even made Tang Song inside the Dragon Carriage look sideways slightly.
At this moment, the reactions of the crowd protecting the Dragon Carriage varied. The Jinwu Guard and Xuanjia Army Armored Guards naturally drew their blades, fighting desperately. Among the Exorcists and Reincarnators, some chose to resist, while others quietly left.
Just like the few Ninjas who were Akatsuki members, when Empty Lord said that this Monkey's strength was no less than that Pig Demon's, they quietly used the Earth Release Technique to flee towards the Distance.
Some fled, and naturally, some resisted. Five Elements Fist assumed the stance of Tiger Form Fist, manifesting a Fierce Tiger Dharma Appearance behind him. The Fierce Tiger let out a roar towards mid-air. Five Elements Fist himself leaped up, smashing both fists towards the Giant Pillar, clearly intending to block the pillar with his physical body.
"Brute!"
Empty Lord looked at Five Elements Fist with disdain. Clapping his hand, the lid of his upright Sword Casket opened, and several treasured swords emitting green light shot out, drawing an arc in mid-air, bypassing the Giant Pillar, and striking directly towards the Monkey behind the Giant Pillar.
"Swish swish swish swish swish swish—"
Several Decepticon Reincarnators raised their arms. From the launching ports of their large-caliber Grenade Launchers, missiles as thick as an ordinary person's arm shot out, exploding towards the Monkey.
"Another powerful one worth challenging!"
In the darkness beside the Imperial Highway, Uchiha Madara clapped his hands. The energy around his entire body directly condensed into a blue Karasu-Tengu samurai phantom dozens of meters tall.
"Slap!"
Uchiha Madara clapped his hands again. On the surrounding Ground, countless thick vines broke through the Soil. These tough vines converged within Uchiha Madara's body, forming a huge Thousand-Hand Buddha.
"Not enough!"
Uchiha Madara added another layer outside the Thousand-Hand Buddha—the Gedo Statue.
Looking at the little ants on the Ground, either fleeing or attempting to resist, the Monkey's gaze turned cold, and he gave a cold laugh: "Overestimating yourselves!"
Clang clang clang!
Empty Lord controlled the Sword Light to stab towards the Monkey's back. Before the green Sword Light could land on the Monkey's body, the Monkey turned his head, rotating his head 180 degrees, and sprayed a mouthful of Samadhi True Fire. The few streams of Sword Light fell into the Samadhi True Fire, were licked over by the tongue of fire, and instantly melted into a puddle of molten iron.
The Giant Pillar broke through the air, about to smash everything on the Imperial Highway into meat paste.
A Fierce Tiger dozens of meters long roared and pounced towards the Giant Pillar. The next moment, with a splat, Five Elements Fist was smashed hard onto the Ground.
