Chapter 465

... to be severely wounded or captured alive.

"The astonishing Demon King Zhao, this news is too explosive!"

"Pan Tuo is a powerful mech-martial artist; how could he have been defeated so miserably?"

"It is said that he fell into Demon King Zhao's illusory realm."

"Hiss, he has so many tricks. Demon King Zhao can control undead troops and also cast illusory realms?"

"Terrifying."

As many details were dug up.

The details of the battle between Zhao Xing and Pan Tuo were also exposed.

Some say that Pan Tuo had not even left the vicinity of City No. 6 before he fell into Zhao Xing's illusory realm.

Constantly circling in one area.

In the end, he crawled into a cave.

The illusory realm caused Pan Tuo's detachment of his own fused Imperial Weapons to fail completely.

Others say that Pan Tuo was seen in the outer area.

With only half his body left, one could see his mechanical spine and flesh-and-blood skull; his appearance was extremely miserable, consistent with the rumors.

"Demon King Zhao's strength is too terrifying."

"Someone as powerful as Pan Tuo actually lost at his hands?"

"Pan Tuo had soul-artifact protection; why did he fail so easily?"

"From such a long distance, how did Demon King Zhao manage to confuse Pan Tuo with an illusory realm? Could it be that Zhao Xing moved a step earlier to close the distance?"

"I can't figure it out. He has too many methods; it seems he even has troops with space-type secret techniques."

Although they knew Pan Tuo had lost to Zhao Xing.

It left the lords with even more doubts.

After all, those who witnessed it with their own eyes were also slow to realize what happened.

And illusory realm attacks are very covert.

No one knew all the details.

Naturally, they could not investigate the truth of that battle.

Outside City No. 10.

Lan Caidie put away her Stop-War Spear and looked at a certain direction in shock.

"I defeated the combined forces of Garcia and Arthur; I originally thought I would have a chance to fight him again."

"I didn't expect..."

Comprehending in the virtual world, Lan Caidie summarized the battle with Zhao Xing, which also gave her some gains.

She originally thought she would narrow the gap.

But looking at it now, the gap not only didn't narrow, it seemed to have grown even larger.

…………

In front of City No. 8, the Undead Lord Catherine was competing with Hela.

They had agreed to take turns clearing the levels.

And at this moment, it was Hela who was clearing the level, while Catherine was outside.

Suddenly, Catherine opened her eyes and looked toward the east in shock.

"Mech-martial artist Pan Tuo, with the powerful assistance of mechanical equipment and the explosive power of martial arts secret techniques, having fused 7 Imperial Weapons, actually still lost."

"Does Demon King Zhao have no weaknesses?"

…………

"Pan Tuo's weakness is his soul; it's no surprise he lost to Zhao Xing, who cultivates the Great Expansion Divine Art."

Aligu sat on the shoulder of a violent bear and snorted coldly.

"That idiot Pan Tuo, knowing the suppression was severe, still came in, and challenged Zhao Xing... he simply brought humiliation upon himself!"

"However, if he ran into me, it wouldn't be that simple."

"My mental will has been certified and judged multiple times to have reached the level of being able to set 'memory anchors'."

Aligu imagined the scene of himself fighting Zhao Xing, full of confidence.

…………

"How miserable." Both Duan Yes stood up from City No. 2 at the same time, "Seeing Pan Tuo so miserable, I feel much more balanced."

"Heh, guys who are too arrogant always end up badly. Weia was so strong, yet he agreed to let Zhao Xing clear the level once; what right did this Pan Tuo have?"

"Now it's good, he's been torn to pieces by someone and will never walk out of the shadow for the rest of his life."

Looking at Pan Tuo's encounter, Duan Ye suddenly didn't feel so pained about being abused by the Linglong Chess Game anymore.

…………

After eliminating Pan Tuo.

Zhao Xing also obtained Pan Tuo's 7 pieces of mechanical equipment!

"Seven mechanical Imperial Weapons, all are Emperor-grade high-tier treasures."

"Among them, 5 pieces are a complete set of mechanical equipment, the War God Seven Series,"

Hand part: 'War God Left Hand' (Assault, Heaven Strike).

Hand part: 'War God Right Hand' (Explosive Fist, Shield Thorn).

Leg part: 'War God Right Leg' (Shield Breaker, Law Breaker).

Leg part: 'War God Left Leg' (Speed, Instant Shadow).

Waist part: 'War God Rear Waist' (SS-grade energy reactor, power amplification type).

Five pieces of War God Seven Series equipment!

Each part not only possesses multiple special effects, but when combined, it can even unleash combination effects.

For example, the micro-energy matrices imprinted on the leg parts number as many as 700 million.

They are engraved with space matrices and wind matrices, respectively.

They can allow Pan Tuo to perform short-distance teleportation!

The set attributes of the five pieces of equipment can also comprehensively increase Pan Tuo's strength, speed, defense, and attack, maintaining 100-fold high-energy output for 4 hours!

After Zhao Xing finished understanding this equipment.

He was also secretly shocked.

Because according to calculations based on this equipment, Pan Tuo was capable of exerting the combat power of a peak Silver Moon-stage martial artist!

"No wonder he was so arrogant; this set of equipment alone is enough to make him comparable to a Silver Moon peak."

"Pan Tuo himself also knows several ultimate secret techniques; if his soul level wasn't too weak, I really couldn't have taken him down easily in a head-on confrontation."

As for the remaining two mechanical Imperial Weapons.

They belong to another series.

"Two soul artifacts from the 'Ghost Feather' series."

"One in the brain, one in the heart."

Zhao Xing looked at the two black, feather-like pieces of metal in front of him.

He couldn't tell what material they were at all.

"A masterpiece of the Eternal Tower; mechanical equipment that actually affects the soul and can protect the soul."

"The Empire's technological means are truly prosperous."

Zhao Xing looked at the fluctuations engraved on the soul artifacts; they were all at the Emperor-grade high-tier level!

They were at the same level as his own Soul Chariot!

Unfortunately, they are heavily suppressed here and cannot exert much effect.

"Pack them up and sell them; selling them to a mech-martial artist in need will fetch a price higher than the normal 7 loose Imperial Weapons."

Zhao Xing grinned.

Besides this, there was also an Angel-series mechanical troop.

This battle had a significant harvest.

Suddenly—

Zhao Xing received a notification in the virtual world.

"Hmm? Plant Lords Li Fu, Lianrong, Qiye, and Lord Li Pu have all sent me messages through the virtual world."
