The Hundredfold Attack Speed made it increasingly easier for Lu Ziye to clear out the Beast Nest filled with Ordinary Mechanical Beasts and Elite Mechanical Beasts.
Firing Energy Shells every second was a concept that could only be fully understood by witnessing the chaotic barrage firsthand. Just moments ago, Lu Ziye faced a multi-headed Ordinary Mechanical Beast, and with a simple flick of his wrist, the entire group of Mechanical Beasts was reduced to Metal Wreckage, leaving craters on the ground that would astonish anyone.
As the hour of hunting passed quickly, Lu Ziye's attack speed had increased significantly, along with his level. With his level up, he found that defeating Mechanical Domains didn’t yield as much progress towards unlocking the Mechanical Profound Meaning as before. However, killing quickly was still a form of efficiency.
After two hours of intense combat, Lu Ziye finally completed his first Mechanical Domain and successfully filled the progress bar for the Mechanical Profound Meaning. His mech also emitted a corresponding notification sound.
【Congratulations, you have met the conditions to unlock the Mechanical Profound Meaning. Would you like to inject Wan Soul Crystals into your mech to begin unlocking the Mechanical Essence ability?】
Lu Ziye was taken aback; after working hard to accumulate Wan Soul Crystals, now he was being asked to use them all at once? He had no idea that awakening the Mechanical Profound Meaning required consuming Soul Crystals.
Without hesitation, he decided to start the unlocking process. Soul Crystals could be obtained again, but unlocking the Mechanical Essence was essential.
【Unlocking... The Energy Core is adapting to fit the mech's characteristics for its exclusive Mechanical Essence. Unlocking progress...】
The loading bar progressed slowly. Lu Ziye felt that this was the first time his mech's Energy Core felt so powerful, as if it were drawing on all its energy for this task. The progress increased by nearly a minute each time, and with every increment of the progress bar, Lu Ziye felt as though his mech was gradually awakening from slumber, a mysterious power beginning to stir.
Finally, a pleasant sound rang out.
【Congratulations, you have awakened the Mechanical Profound Meaning: Extreme Overload.】
【Extreme Overload: This allows your mech to enter an Extreme Overload state, increasing all weapon damage by a factor of X for Y seconds. The next Extreme Overload will require waiting for the Energy Core to be ready again; currently, it needs an interval of Z hours. (This multiplier will increase as your mech's Energy Core level rises, and the interval time will decrease.)】
Lu Ziye was stunned; this enhancement to weapon damage through Mechanical Essence was incredible! Coupled with his attack speed, it was a perfect match. He could achieve Hundredfold Attack Speed and fire Energy Shells every second; during Extreme Overload, these Energy Shells would have their damage multiplied significantly for Y seconds. He could output damage equivalent to X times that of regular Energy Shells.
Moreover, his military attack capabilities would also increase by a factor of X. Not to mention activating Red Storm would also amplify its power by X times.
This was fantastic! Lu Ziye felt much more confident about tomorrow's defense mission. "You want me to guard the Star Gate? I'll tear your Star Gate apart!"
After a day of fighting, Lu Ziye planned to return to the Blue Zone Joint Command Center for a brief rest, preparing for the major battle ahead. In the lounge, he unexpectedly bumped into Qiu Yuan, who immediately pulled him into the office.
"Go get some cola!" Qiu Yuan instructed his assistant.
"How did you know I love Happy Water?" Lu Ziye chuckled.
"Hey, you have no idea. Ever since Legion Commander Liu Tianwei got injured, he chats with me every day about various things, and you’re always the topic. My ears are practically calloused from it," Qiu Yuan replied helplessly.
"You already know about tomorrow's situation, right?" Qiu Yuan lit a cigarette. Clearly, he was still under pressure; last time, the Blue Zone had let him down, leaving him embarrassed.
Lu Ziye didn’t dare to say that he knew everything because Xiao Ming had hinted that not everyone was aware of the intricate plans involved. So, he simply nodded and said, "I know. We’re attacking Resource Star."
He refrained from revealing more information, worried about leaking secrets.
"Yes, increasing the occupation rate of Resource Star aligns with Dragon Kingdom's interests. This battle won't be easy, but I trust Legion Commander Liu Tianwei's judgment," Qiu Yuan continued. However, even he didn’t know that tomorrow’s objective was not just to capture that location but to seize as much of the Mine Area as possible and occupy more territory.
If the battle truly escalated tomorrow and waves of Beast Tide came crashing in, Qiu Yuan would likely crumble under the pressure.
" Commander, who is stationed in the Red Zone and Purple Zone? Why have they remained so stable?" Lu Ziye asked curiously about Xiao Ming’s confidence in those two areas.
"Those two zones are absolutely secure; they are manned by the Dragon Rising Legion’s Elite. Let’s put it this way: what you see in the Gray Zone and Blue Zone are all basic forces—numerous but still in their infancy. The Purple Zone is filled with Level Mechanics; even if I went there, I would just be another nameless face. Not to mention the Level Red Zone and the unfathomable Black Zone. The occupation rates in these two areas are low, and they face less backlash from Mechanical Beasts. The anger level of these Mechanical Beasts is proportional to our occupation rate—the more territory we hold, the fiercer their counterattacks become," Qiu Yuan explained.
"So, Gray Zone and Blue Zone are the foundational areas. Until we expand this base, human actions in other high-Level Areas remain cautious?" Lu Ziye speculated.
"Exactly."
" Commander, do you know why these Mechanical Beasts insist on invading our Lan Xing? And why do they cling so stubbornly to these few areas?"
"You ask me? Who should I ask? Who knows what’s going on in their heads?" Qiu Yuan rolled his eyes.
Understood. It seemed that Qiu Yuan was merely a messenger with no access to core information. Lu Ziye silently labeled him as such.
"I brought you here today for a simple reason: tomorrow you will lead a ten-thousand-man Squad stationed at Hao Xingmen. That’s all; now go get some rest," Qiu Yuan finally revealed his purpose for calling Lu Ziye.
Lu Ziye nodded and accepted the mission before turning to leave the room. Just as he was about to close the door behind him, a voice called out from within.
"Last time guarding Hao Xingmen was you, Lu Ziye; everyone has high hopes for you this time!"
Lu Ziye said nothing, merely closing the door quietly.
