Chapter 966 Nanorobots and the World Engine
"What the hell?"

Looking at the nanobots that were spreading all over the world, and the swarms of nanobees that were constantly dismantling the world, Wang Ming was a little confused. But in just a moment, he understood. Looking at the swarms of nanobees that were constantly dismantling the world, he suddenly thought of the records of the Human Federation regarding the Iron Man's rebellion, and he remembered the nano calamity that could decompose and devour an entire star system as material.

However, the instant Wang Ming remembered this matter, all the nanobots on the entire world suddenly began to frantically decompose the world. Pieces of metal continents were broken down, and countless nanobots continuously replicated themselves. As these nanobots continuously utilized all available materials on the entire world and continued to replicate themselves, Wang Ming also discovered something: the artificial intelligence humans on this world had completely abandoned their human form. They allowed the nanobots to devour their bodies, and then their consciousness began to collectivize. Through a unified system command, their consciousness began to operate those nanobots.

Those nanobots, like a gray mist, rushed out of this world under their conscious control. As they left, the world that had seemed normal was reduced to a dry little sphere of earth the moment they departed. The original metal continent and all the resources of this world were completely decomposed and taken away by the nanobots. Those nanobots in the void took away all the usable resources of the entire world.

However, they weren't that extreme. At least they left a tiny amount of mass in this world, didn't they? From this, we can see that the Human Federation's nanobots are actually more powerful than the former galactic cataclysmic Tyranids. After all, even the Tyranids couldn't completely devour a world and decompose the matter of an entire galaxy, whether that matter is organic or inorganic, or even the stars in those galaxies could be rapidly decomposed by those nanobots.

Back when facing the main force of the Tyranids, Wang Ming had an extreme plan: to use the human federation's nanobot swarms and deploy all the nanobots into the void to fight the Tyranids, and then let the nanobots compete with the Tyranids to see who could decompose things faster.

However, this most extreme method was not implemented. Now, the nanobees that have appeared in this galaxy suddenly reminded Wang Ming of the plan he had made before. The moment Wang Ming thought of this plan, a very bad feeling suddenly appeared in his heart. At the instant this feeling appeared, a planet in this galaxy suddenly exploded, and then a familiar green light appeared. Then Wang Ming lost his sight of this galaxy.

"Exorcising the Dead Zone!!"

On that sacred Terra, Wang Ming thought about the last green light he had seen, and felt his own power being expelled by some kind of device in that star system. He immediately realized what that thing was: a world engine that had suddenly awakened the Necromancer Dynasty. The moment it was activated, the power of the Exorcising Death Domain dispelled Wang Ming's power in that star system.

However, Wang Ming was not without options in this situation. It was just a world engine of a Necromancer Dynasty. As long as they could confirm whether the Necromancer Dynasty was loyal to the Silent King, they could use relatively peaceful means to make the Necromancer Dynasty's time engine leave this star system. They might even be able to use this world engine to fight against the nanobea swarm in that star system and wear it down.

However, just as Wang Ming was pondering this, the situation in that star system had completely descended into chaos. First, the nanobees were a bit bewildered by the sudden awakening of the Necromancer Dynasty. Then, the Necromancer Dynasty was also a bit bewildered by the huge nanocloud. But while they were bewildered, the transmigrators were actually even more bewildered than them.

The transmigrators were enveloped by the nanobots and brought into the void. They then witnessed the resurgence of the Necromancer Dynasty, as well as the Necromancer Dynasty and the nanocloud staring at each other in bewilderment. Although that world and that vast nanocloud did not exhibit much human-like behavior, their momentary pause indicated that they were indeed somewhat bewildered.

Just as the two sides were locked in a stalemate, some of the transmigrators suddenly noticed something: the once perfectly smooth nanobots were now showing signs of corrosion. This was almost impossible, as nanobots should have been operating in the same place for an extended period of time. After all, they were capable of self-repair, making corrosion seem almost impossible. Yet, this was indeed happening.

"A weapon based on time patterns!?"

Among the transmigrators, Wang Xiaofa, looking at the nanobots that were constantly showing signs of corrosion, thought of time-regulating weapons. And indeed, the space necromancers did use time-regulating weapons. Faced with the human nanobots, and with things that were difficult to clear with conventional weapons, the space necromancers had no choice but to use time-regulating weapons.

Upon detecting the use of time-based weapons by the space undead, the artificial intelligences immediately launched an attack on the world engine. Their first action was to counter the time-based weapons used by the space undead. After discovering that some of their own nanobots were corroding, they immediately began to repair themselves. All the corroded and damaged nanobots were eliminated, and the remaining nanobots formed a layer of gray atmosphere above the world engine's orbit.

Just as the gray atmosphere formed, it suddenly headed towards the world emitting green light. When the gray atmosphere fell upon the green world, it was as if a gray locust plague had broken out. The gray locust plague spread continuously across the green world, constantly eroding everything in it. No matter what kind of matter was in this world, it would be devoured by the gray locust plague, and after devouring those matter, the gray locust plague would multiply again.

Incidentally, due to the transmigrators' ability to resurrect infinitely, the nanobots haven't let them go yet. They completely treat the transmigrators as a group of beings that can infinitely decompose resources. They lead the transmigrators to fight against the space undead in this world and constantly devour all the matter on the world engine.

On the battlefield atop this world engine, the nanobots will revert to nanometal, forming massive armies of combat warriors to fight the space undead above the world engine. The transmigrators, witnessing this, didn't attempt to break free. In fact, escaping the nanobots' control would be incredibly easy; once they entered subspace, the nanobots would be virtually powerless. Their continued control was primarily driven by a desire to watch the spectacle. After all, the sight of combat warriors and space undead constructs clashing on a battlefield was rare, a truly memorable event in the galaxy, representing a genuine clash between the most powerful creations of two once-mighty civilizations.

The combat iron men constantly changed their forms, and all sorts of weapons appeared on their bodies, including both thermal and propulsion weapons. They could switch between these weapons at will, and the space necromancers' weapons were of little use to them. After all, although the Gaussian rays could decompose the basic structure of an object at the atomic level, the nanobots could continuously self-replicate as long as they had enough resources and matter. No matter how many combat iron men the space necromancers killed, it had little effect on the artificial intelligence controlling the nanobots.

After all, there is still plenty of material on the world engine, enough to consume the nanobots controlled by artificial intelligence. Moreover, they have the transmigrators who can provide an unlimited supply of material, so they don't need to worry about the nanobots' consumption.

"Who do you think will win this battle in the end?"

Wang Xiaofa looked at one of the transmigrators beside him and asked him a question as if they were having a conversation. However, this had to ignore the gray nanobots surrounding their bodies, which were still constantly disintegrating their bodies, but that didn't stop them from continuing their conversation.

"Hmm... I think the 'Iron Man' will win."

The time traveler looked at Wang Xiaofa and said something with a hint of helplessness. After hearing this, Wang Xiaofa rolled his eyes in exasperation. The time traveler had spoken the words in High Gothic, and he had even separated the words for "iron" and "person" when he said them.

"Both sides are made of iron, so which side of the iron man are you talking about?"

Wang Xiaofa rolled his eyes at the transmigrator beside him, speechless, before looking back at the battlefield. According to their estimates, they had already been decomposed by the nanobots hundreds of times. Clearly, the nanobots were running out of resources, and their decomposition speed was increasing, from an instantaneous process to a speed that even they couldn't react to. Moreover, the battle on this battlefield was becoming increasingly intense.

Both sides are self-repairing mechanical constructs, and both possess highly advanced technology. This has led to a stalemate in the war, with neither side able to gain the upper hand. After the large undead constructs entered the battlefield, wielding their massive phase swords and relentlessly slicing through the combat mechs, the battle finally reached a stalemate. The one-sided war previously waged by the artificial intelligence with its sheer number of combat mechs has now been halted by the undead constructs.

After being blocked, the artificial intelligence and the space undead emperors started an extremely bizarre and messy battle. Neither side could defeat the other, and even if they kept depleting the other's forces, the other side could keep repairing the damaged forces and also use materials to increase their own soldiers.

"Ah... well... at least it blocked it..."

After Wang Ming's power forcefully tore through the barrier of the Exorcising Dead Domain, his gaze returned to this star system. When Wang Ming saw clearly the war between human technology and space undead taking place in this star system, he watched the war with great interest. In any case, the problem with this star system was not too great. As long as Wang Ming's power tore through the barrier of the Exorcising Dead Domain, his power could flow into the real universe of this star system.

When Wang Ming's power surged into the real universe of this galaxy, it instantly reduced the world engine and nanobots of the space necromancer to nothingness. The power of the God of Vengeance was beyond the reach of technology in the real universe. Wang Ming was now far more powerful than the gods of the subspace, not only because he had a projection in the High Heavens, but also because he could only unleash his full power there.

Wang Ming also has his own body in the real universe, and he can completely channel all his power into the real universe, unlike the Chaos Gods who cannot fully exert their power in the real universe.

"Let's see who the winner is. Anyway, I'm getting a bit bored grading documents."

Wang Ming's gaze was fixed on the world engine, intending to see who the final victor of this war would be, while at the same time he had already prepared his own attack for the world engine.
