Chapter 163

But everyone knew that Gong Jingshan had no need to deceive them, especially with Min Min Yiyun and Jing Jing Fanbai adding on the side. You know, these three were Magic Card Masters belonging to the Magic Card Associations of different capitals. If they really wanted to pursue it, it wouldn't stand up to scrutiny.

"So, what you said is all true?" Shangguan Pu felt his throat become dry.

Although he was a Sovereign, the strongest Magic Card he held reached the ten-star level, but nine-star Magic Cards still occupied a lot of status in his deck, and they were also the main Magic Cards he used most in his daily life.

Now telling him that a Magic Card newbie in the Monarch Realm also possesses a nine-star Magic Card, and it is a dragon species, he really couldn't accept it for a while.

Hiss!

Looking at each other, Shangguan Wan'er and Liu Sister Sister Yanran and the girls were also dumbfounded. They knew that Lu Li was walking further and further on the path of being inhuman, and they also felt that the other party must have left a hand, but they didn't expect that the hand left was so outrageous.

"Good guy, no wonder Lu Li was so calm when facing the Magic Dao Society before, it's because he still hid this hand." Shangguan Wan'er smacked her lips.

"I've never seen anyone who can hide like him." Meng Meng Meng Chuyun's little face was angry. Now the hope of wanting to catch up with Lu Li has become even further away.

Especially thinking that if it weren't for her accidental discovery that the other party was a disciple of the Night Queen, she would probably still be kept in the dark until now!

"It's not that Lu Li can hide, but that no one has been able to force out his true strength before." Taking a deep breath, Su Su Su Xueyi said with a tight little face. This also had a great impact on her.

Liu Sister Sister Yanran on the side felt the same way. She was the first to know Lu Li, but until now, she didn't know how many trump cards Lu Li had.

As for Shangguan Hong, Mei Mei Zhaoyu, and Song Song Lihui, these three stronger Immortal Realm powerhouses, were also stunned at this moment.

Is the improvement of this young man's strength a bit too outrageous now? This already has a Magic Card spirit with nine-star combat power?

But soon, Shangguan Hong laughed, and the laugh was called a bright one. After all, Lu Li is a Magic Card Master from their Cang Capital. The better Lu Li performs in the Eternal Night plane, the more capital Cang Capital has to show off.

"Laugh, laugh, laugh, do you know that you look very wretched now?" Seeing Shangguan Hong's proud little face, Mei Mei Zhaoyu retorted without hesitation.

She could see it. That girl from the Meng family definitely had ideas about Lu Li, otherwise she wouldn't have run over so hurriedly just now.

Now it's good. Not only was Shangguan Hong shown off, but even the Magic Card Master she was optimistic about seemed to be abducted. The fat water flowed to the outsider's field. How could she be refreshed?

"It's fine, anyway, I even have a granddaughter, and maybe I will have a great-grandchild soon. If it's wretched, it's wretched." Regarding this, Shangguan Hong was calm: "Besides, even if it's wretched, I am the president of the Cang Capital Magic Card Association. Is there anyone who can replace me?"

Damn it!

Hearing Shangguan Hong's words, Mei Mei Zhaoyu was dumbfounded. She and the other party were old rivals for many years, but she didn't expect this guy to be so cheap.

It was Song Song Lihui who felt strange. This was clearly a joint exploration of the three capitals, how did it seem like their Yao Capital was left out? Brain hurts.

……

"The high-level mechanical civilization that preceded the Eternal Night plane had a total of more than ten arbitrators, and above the arbitrators, there were purifiers, builders, and even judges and creators." Checking the data parsed by Datamon, Lu Li muttered to himself: "However, after the civilization collapsed, the remaining purifiers and those above the builders basically disappeared, and the Eternal Night plane that integrated into the Magic Card civilization only had one arbitrator."

Beside Lu Li, mechanical constructs appeared from Finish Finish Time to Finish Finish Time, but they were soon easily solved by Chaos Dark Magician Girl and other Magic Card spirits.

"Besides, the information collected by Datamon from the agent shows that many Magic Card Masters who entered the Eternal Night plane were captured and brainwashed to go to the End Land. I don't know what the arbitrator has in mind."

As he spoke, Lu Li added this newly obtained information, together with the information obtained from the agent before, to the simulation construction. The simulation speed of the Shipgirl worldview instantly slowed down a lot. This was because a large amount of data poured in, and the original settings and background of the worldview needed further improvement.

"The Arbiter is the superior of the Agents, and their strength is also greater than that of the Agents. Looking at it this way, I'm afraid the Arbiter's strength will reach the ten-star level." His eyes flickered, but Lu Li felt no fear: "A ten-star mechanical construct—perhaps it's Finish Finish Time to let it make an appearance."

312. Arbiter: Sterkuls

"Master, those constructs have all retreated." Waving the long-handled staff in her hand, the Chaos Black Magician Girl discovered that after killing quite a few mechanical constructs, the ones that had been swarming in were all suddenly retreating at this moment.

"It seems that the Arbiter knows that continuing like this won't stop us, so it has called all its subordinates back." Hearing Hearing Hearing Mana's reminder, Lu Li looked up at his surroundings and indeed found that all the mechanical constructs within his field of vision were withdrawing in an orderly fashion, showing no signs of panic at all.

This is also one of the characteristics of mechanical civilization; the strict hierarchy ensures absolute execution of orders.

"Since that's the case, we need to speed up as well. You two come back first." After saying this, Lu Li raised his head and gestured, recalling the Black Magician Girl and Eosmon X into the Eternal Land, then patted the Blue-Eyes Tyrant Dragon beneath him.

Roar!

Amidst the roar, the speed of the Blue-Eyes Tyrant Dragon surged suddenly. With no constructs to hinder it, it carried Lu Li deep into the core of the Eternal Night Plane in an instant.

Everything that came into view was shattered debris, some belonging to constructs and some to extraterrestrial fierce beasts. Looking around, it almost covered the entire area before him.

"Master, this place is filled with very intense resentment, and I sense a very strong energy reaction deeper inside." Qisala's voice rang out in his mind.

As her voice fell, a large number of attacks suddenly struck, with Lu Li and the Blue-Eyes Tyrant Dragon as the targets.

Roar!

The dragon's roar resounded through the sky. The light wings behind the Blue-Eyes Tyrant Dragon flapped violently, and a terrifying gale connected heaven and earth, blowing away all the incoming attacks.

Subsequently, countless magic card spirits appeared, surrounding Lu Li and the Blue-Eyes Tyrant Dragon. Among them were many eight-star magic card spirits. Not far away, the figures of several magic card masters also emerged, but these magic card masters all had dull eyes, and a special mechanical tentacle was inserted into the position of their backbones, connecting to the depths of the End Land.

"It seems this is the host's way of welcoming us. It has a sense of an AI crisis," Lu Li said, his expression very calm. With a wave of his hand, the Chaos Black Magician Girl, Mechanical Tyrannosaurus X, and Angewomon X appeared again: "No need to hold back."

Having formed a contract with Celestine, Lu Li was very sensitive to life force. In his perception, although these magic card masters could still summon magic card spirits, they actually had very little life force left and were completely controlled by the mechanical tentacles connected to their backs.

As for the magic card spirits, they were controlled by the magic card masters and naturally were also subject to the black hand controlling the magic card masters from behind.

Although they belonged to the same magic card civilization, and there were even magic card masters from Cangdu among them, Lu Li had no intention of holding back. Even if these people could be saved, they could no longer be brought back to life.

Chaos Baptism!

Waving the long-handled staff, the chaos power between black and white descended, covering all the magic card spirits. Instantly, all the states on the magic card spirits hit by the Chaos Baptism were cleared.

Swords of Revealing Light! Several light swords descended from the sky. At the same Finish Finish Time, in the hands raised by Angewomon X, seven-colored holy bubbles expanded and spread, working with the Swords of Revealing Light to imprison all the magic card spirits.

Armed Steelization!

A modified energy cannon replaced the right claw. The muzzle opened, and terrifying energy condensed within the cannon body. Besides this, the lift cabin at the mouth of the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus X also opened, with fluctuations second only to the modified energy cannon rolling out.

At the position opposite to the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus X, the Blue-Eyes Tyrant Dragon also opened its huge dragon mouth, and the power of destruction was compressed within it, causing even the space to shatter at this moment.

Positron Shockwave!

Giga Storm!

Burst Stream of Destruction!

Three attacks, each seemingly capable of destroying everything, instantly struck the magic card spirits that were imprisoned and unable to move.

Boom!

A massive mushroom cloud rose, resounding throughout the entire End Land. Endless heat turned into shockwaves that continuously struck into the distance. Everything hit by the shockwaves along the way turned into fragments, including the magic card masters with the mechanical tentacles.

In the face of this near-natural disaster destruction, the physical strength of a magic card master was a joke.

The dust dissipated, and the massive mushroom cloud disappeared, leaving only a terrifying deep pit in place. All the magic card spirits had been wiped out in the joint attack just now.

The mastermind behind all this clearly hadn't expected Lu Li to deal with the blocking magic card masters and magic card spirits so quickly, and until now, there had been no action.

Patting the Blue-Eyes Tyrant Dragon, Lu Li looked toward the depths of the End Land: "Let's go, it's our turn to go and greet the host."

Lu Li didn't have many thoughts about the magic card masters who died from the explosion. Since they chose to enter the Eternal Night Plane to explore, they should have expected this, not to mention that these people couldn't be saved anyway.

As the Blue-Eyes Tyrant Dragon continued to go deeper, mechanical constructs gradually appeared along the way to block Lu Li's advance, and occasionally even Agents appeared, though their numbers were pitifully small compared to the Executors and Purifiers.

Unfortunately, under the full-firepower attacks of the Chaos Black Magician Girl and Angewomon X magic card spirits, even the mechanical constructs couldn't block them for even a fraction.

"Looks like we've arrived!" A moment later, Lu Li felt his eyes brighten. The Blue-Eyes Tyrant Dragon carried him into a space filled with countless mechanical wrecks. In this mechanical space, a huge machine stood in the center of the space, with countless mechanical tentacles connected to every corner of the machine.

At the very core of the machine, the upper body of a human-like female with brown-black skin stood out. The moment Lu Li appeared, her dull eyes gradually lit up, as if waking up.

【Arbiter: Sterkuls】

Race: Mechanical Construct

Quality: Legendary

Level: Ten-Star

Skills: Adaptive Armor, Cross Barrage, Hidden Sea Mist, Electromagnetic Interference

Adaptive Armor: After health drops below a certain level, it deploys adaptive armor and activates a second form, increasing quality by one level and gaining more powerful firepower and defense.

Cross Barrage: Fires several burst shells, each of which then radiates linear barrages in all directions, weaving a dense barrage net to envelop the target.

Hidden Sea Mist: Releases mist on the battlefield, slowing down the speed of all units entering the mist while reducing the hit rate of all units entering the mist.

Electromagnetic Interference: Releases a special electronic magnetic field on the battlefield, reducing the combat power of non-mechanical enemies by 20%.

Description: Originally one of the Arbiters of the Arbiter Agency of a high-level mechanical civilization. After the collapse of the high-level mechanical civilization, it became the highest-level mechanical construct in the Eternal Night Plane. It seems to have undergone some kind of mutation after absorbing the resentment of extraterrestrial fierce beasts.

Bang, bang, bang!

The mechanical tentacles connected to Arbiter Sterkuls suddenly snapped and fell to the ground one after another, stirring up bursts of hollow sounds.

Immediately following, a deep blue electromagnetic field expanded instantly, directly enveloping Lu Li and his magic card spirits. In an instant, except for Mechanical Tyrannosaurus X, whether it was the Chaos Black Magician Girl, Angewomon X, or the Blue-Eyes Tyrant Dragon, all felt their bodies become heavy, and their combat power dropped significantly in sync.

In the magic card civilization, the modified Mechanical Tyrannosaurus is also classified into the mechanical magic card sequence, so it was immune to the effects of electromagnetic interference.

313. Lightning Tyrannosaurus X!

"Human, magic card master, you are very special." Arbiter Sterkuls' mouth opened and closed, its voice resounding throughout the entire End Land.

Without any tone, without any emotion, Arbiter Sterkuls was incomparably cold: "My terminal simulates that as long as I assimilate you, my machine will achieve further evolution, with a 90% probability of being promoted to a Purifier."

According to the hierarchy of high-level mechanical civilization, the next step after an Arbiter is a Purifier. As long as the machine is promoted, it will have the opportunity to purify the abnormalities within its body.

As its voice fell, the machine of Arbiter Sterkuls extended countless mechanical tentacles toward Lu Li, clearly intending to grab him directly.

As for the Chaos Black Magician Girl, the Blue-Eyes Tyrant Dragon, and other magic card spirits, they were directly ignored by Arbiter Sterkuls. According to its machine's deduction, these magic card spirits could not pose any threat to it.

Even though these four magic card spirits had just killed all the brainwashed magic card masters and magic card spirits in one hit, such an attack still could not cause much impact on it.

In fact, the encirclement of mechanical constructs that Lu Li encountered along the way was all a deliberate arrangement by Arbiter Sterkuls, intended to test Lu Li's upper limit.

When the Observer fed back the information, Arbiter Sterkuls immediately listed Lu Li as one of the candidate capture targets.
