CHAPTER 279: CHAPTER 264 HUMANOID COMBAT SOLDIER-AOA

"Senior Brother Lu Chen, what is this creature we are riding that looks like an orca?"

Traveling across star domains naturally requires flying tools, and what Senior Brother Lu Chen took out from the space treasure was a massive creature resembling an orca, a full ten kilometers long.

The sound of gurgling breath, a kilometer-long tail swaying in the void, seemingly slow, yet capable of traversing the void, with a movement speed equivalent to thirty times the speed of light.

Mechanical scale armor is bound to the giant creature, and mechanical structures tower on its back.

Wang Xu and Lu Chen stand in the observation room at the very front, gazing at the beautiful, boundless stars through the one hundred percent transparent special glass.

Senior Brother Lu Chen smiled and said, "This is the ’biological spaceship’ unique to the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos. What we’re riding on is a creature called a ’Space-Time Whale’. The Space-Time Whale doesn’t have much in terms of attack methods, and its physical defense is quite weak, but it is naturally favored by the Cosmic Law, allowing it to be empowered by the Law of Void, hence its exceptionally fast speed in the void."

"The ’Wu Meng Warriors’ of the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos all ride these biological spaceships to traverse star domains. We’re riding a void-level Space-Time Whale, and the Law of Void isn’t strong. Currently, the speed is about thirty times the speed of light, twelve million kilometers per second, but if it were a black hole level or white hole level Space-Time Whale, the speed would be several times faster, even capable of billions of kilometers per second."

Wang Xu nodded in understanding.

The biological spaceship is fast, several times the speed of light, which external cosmic battleships can’t even compare to in terms of speed.

However, cosmic battleships have unique space-time teleportation, which can travel hundreds of light-years in one breath! Enough for this biological spaceship to nearly exhaust itself running in the void for unknown years.

"Let’s land on this star; there is a teleportation array on it, which can save a lot of time," said Senior Brother Lu Chen, controlling the Space-Time Whale to descend toward the star with a thought.

......

After putting away the Space-Time Whale, Wang Xu and Lu Chen saw a mechanically advanced city from afar.

"May I see your passage credentials, sirs?" A guard at the initial black hole level approached, showing a respectful expression and looking at them with awe.

Lu Chen flicked his finger, a white light piece landing in the hand of the white hole level guard.

The guard took one glance and bowed back to his post.

"Let’s go," Lu Chen and Wang Xu entered the mechanical city.

Cylindrical hover transportation systems extended in all directions, invisible trajectories guiding them to designated places.

In the distance, a saucer-shaped transport ship opened its bottom absorption port, and the cargo below floated up. The saucer transport ships followed one after another, in perfect order.

In the sky, many ’Wu Meng Warriors’ were flying, hurrying along their paths.

The Wu Meng Warriors are the same as the cosmic martial artists in the outside universe, just with different titles.

"Junior Brother Wang Xu, wait here for a moment; I’ll go find the teleport point in this city."

Wang Xu nodded as Lu Chen flew off.

Walking alone on the street, there were few pedestrians; most Wu Meng Warriors didn’t want to waste time walking, opting to fly for efficiency, with only some who couldn’t fly — ’warrior apprentices,’ that is, basic level cosmic martial artists — having to walk.

The Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos is very similar to the external cosmos.

Cosmic martial artists have levels such as Basic Level, Star Level, Void Level, Black Hole Level, White Hole Level, Mixed Universe Realm, Celestial God Realm, etc.

In contrast, the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos has ranks: One-star Warrior Apprentice, Two-star War Master, Three-star War Spirit, Four-star War King, Five-star War Venerable, Six-star War God, Seven-star War Saint, Eight-star War Lord... As for Nine-star and Ten-star, no one has seen them; at least Senior Brother Lu Chen has only heard of such powerful figures existing.

The Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos doesn’t have so many sub-levels like the external universe. Each level has Junior, Intermediate, Special, and Super.

Wang Xu’s current realm is actually within the "Five-star Super War Venerable" category.

The guard who blocked them earlier was a four-star Junior War King.

Wang Xu entered an armor shop.

"This piece of mechanical armor... its hardness is comparable to Void Ancient Soldiers." Wang Xu gently rubbed a piece of black mechanical armor, already reaching the strength of a Void Ancient Soldier.

He checked another piece, finding it even stronger, enough to reach the ranks of Immortal Divine Soldier.

"The Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos is isolated from the outer universe, but the level of mechanical civilization is exceedingly high, especially this mechanical armor. Although it’s called mechanical armor, it can be extended at will, with excellent toughness... if a cosmic martial artist who has practiced transformation-type secret techniques wore it, even if their body suddenly expanded to ten kilometers, a hundred kilometers high, the defense strength of this mechanical armor would not weaken in the slightest."

The further he looked, the more Wang Xu’s face showed a slight surprise.

All these mechanical armors were handcrafted, while external universe treasures were birthed and nurtured by stars and laws. Comparing the two, the mechanical civilization of the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos has evidently reached an astonishing level of development.

After observing for a while, Wang Xu left the armor shop.

If it had been before I obtained the Phantom Wing Armor, perhaps Wang Xu would have bought one or two pieces, but with the Divine Treasure as Imperial Armor, these mechanical armors, no matter how finely crafted or astonishing, are still not as powerful as the Divine Treasure.

After walking for a short while, Wang Xu saw another shop.

"Mechanical Warriors?" Wang Xu entered the shop and found all sorts of robots around him. A five or six-year-old child in green skin was enveloped in a mech, putting on the helmet, and his mechanical eyes immediately glowed with a ghostly red light.

The small mechanical warrior raised its hand, energy gathering in the palm, and a beam of white light shot out, a faint green protective barrier appeared and completely absorbed the beam of white light.

The small mechanical warrior fascinated the child, making him jump with joy, pleading with his father to buy this mechanical warrior, but his father glanced at the price, shook his head firmly, and left with the child who had taken off the mech with displeasure.

Wang Xu’s eyes brightened at the sight.

"Boss, what is the most expensive mechanical warrior you have here?" Wang Xu stepped forward and asked.

The boss saw Wang Xu, a hulking, burly man with a massive beard, and realized he was a Five-star Super War King, immediately showing a respectful demeanor, bowing humbly, "War King, the most expensive is the newly arrived ’Humanoid Combat Soldier-AOA’."

"Take it out and let me see." The burly bearded man rumbled.

The boss quickly ordered his men to bring out two tightly packed mechanical boxes, inputting a long string of passwords, confirming fingerprints and retinas, before taking out a piece of mecha glowing with a silver-gray light.

This mecha resembled a tight-fitting suit, with patterns like electronic circuits spread over the entire mecha, but you could feel it was different from other mechas as it emitted a trace of Law’s aura.

As soon as this mecha was revealed, it immediately drew the attention of all the Wu Meng Warriors around.

"War King, this is the AOA Combat Soldier. If you wear it, you might be able to stand on equal footing with a War Venerable."

A War Venerable is in the Mixed Universe Realm. Wearing a piece of mecha could pit an Invincible White Hole Level against a Mixed Universe Realm? Wang Xu felt half-believing, half-doubting.

"Let me try it." The bearded man said.

The boss immediately stepped forward and pressed the silver-gray tight suit onto Wang Xu. It seemed to dissolve like water and then completely enveloped every inch of Wang Xu’s skin.

The green light shone through the circuit-like patterns, complementing the silver-gray brilliance, making Wang Xu look like a fierce humanoid combat soldier, unstoppable!

"There is Law’s imprisonment, but it can also be clearly felt that it enhanced a part of my power." With a casual wave of his hand, the power increase brought by the AOA mecha to Wang Xu was quite evident.

"Good, this AOA mecha is mine, what’s the price?" Wang Xu immediately decided to buy it.

While traveling in the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos, wearing mecha makes it harder for people to detect that he’s from the outside, and this mecha enhances Wang Xu’s strength, so it’s natural not to miss it.

"It is our shop’s privilege to have the War King’s favor for this mecha. You only need to pay the purchase price, sixty million Wu Meng Crystals." The boss said happily.

Wu Meng Crystal is the same as Cosmic Crystal. Just like Spirit Stone in the Mortal Realm, it is a type of Cosmic Crystal.

This circulating currency is mostly naturally formed cosmic energy crystals, but each world’s structure is different, leading to various names.

Wang Xu nodded. The defensive level of this battle armor is comparable to Immortal Divine Soldiers, and the price of sixty million Cosmic Crystals is very reasonable.

Under the awe-inspiring gazes of the people, Wang Xu directly paid sixty million Cosmic Crystals, and the boss couldn’t stop smiling, overjoyed.

"Boss, is there only one AOA mecha?" Wang Xu asked.

"War King, I originally intended to use the AOA mecha for display to attract customers. Unexpectedly, you are so generous. If you want more, I can custom-order for you, and it will arrive in ten years." The boss said respectfully.

Wang Xu shook his head. Ten years is too long, he still needs to travel and can’t wait.

"Do you have any other lower class mechanical warriors? Tell me about them." Wang Xu said.

The biggest advantage of mechanical warriors is that no matter who uses them, regardless of the realm, they can fully unleash the power of the mechanical warriors.

Wang Xu wanted to make a bulk purchase, equipping the Black Hole Level experts among Earth’s humans with one each, so that the human Black Hole Level experts could exhibit stronger strength, enough to rival the White Hole Level.

......

After a long time, Wang Xu left the mechanical warrior shop, having nearly cleared it out of all the mechanical warriors.

Wang Xu had an abundance of Cosmic Crystals, so much that he couldn’t possibly use them all. Especially from the loot during the qualification battles, every Cosmic Martial Artist was the National Son of some country, a genius, and they carried Cosmic Crystals worth tens of millions to hundreds of millions. Thus, the Cosmic Crystals in Wang Xu’s Space Ring could almost pile up into a thousand-meter-tall mountain.

"Junior Brother Wang Xu."

Wang Xu continued strolling down the street for a short while before coming across Senior Brother Lu Chen.

"I’ve found the teleport point, let’s go." (To be continued. If you like this work, please go to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
