Chapter 952 The protagonist single-handedly turns the tide

"Ah... you mean he went to activate the magic castle by himself, ready to die together with that thing in the sky?"

After Lu Xingshi arrived in the imperial capital, he was quickly received by the empire's top officials.

He did not die and fought his way back to the imperial capital, which was a huge surprise to the entire empire.

After all, Edward had just left, leaving behind only a protective barrier, and they couldn't resist the interstellar survivors.

Then, Lu Xingshi learned from them where Edward was going.

"Yes, he said that only by destroying the black hole shelter first can the control signal be interrupted."

"Let the Star Alliance's war weapons be completely shut down." Gato's hair was messy, and it was obvious that he hadn't taken care of it for quite some time.

Lu Xingshi heard this and thought it was so unrealistic.

The black hole shelter is the control center, but it is unlikely that the war weapons will stop without it.

Without saying too much, the two types of war weapons, biochemical monsters and psychic monsters, have their own logic. Without control signals, they will kill indiscriminately.

Intelligent machines are even simpler. They have their own operating programs, so they are unlikely to shut down whether there is no signal or the Internet is disconnected.

But Lu Xingshi thought again, this is the protagonist, it seems that it is not impossible to turn the tide.

After all, with the help of the world, if the other party really has such a shortcoming of seeking his own death, Lu Xingshi would not be able to attack him.

"How long have you been gone?" Lu Xingshi asked.

He estimated that Edward had already taken control of the core area of ​​the space fortress, otherwise how could he have such confidence.

"We just set out yesterday. If you had come earlier, perhaps you would have been able to meet Archduke Edward." Cato said regretfully.

After Edward secured the capital of the Aore Empire, he became a Grand Duke, improving his efficiency to a level comparable to Lu Xingshi.

"Yesterday." Lu Xingshi was thinking about one thing. Why did the world urge him to come to the imperial capital? According to the development, he should go with Edward to activate the space fortress.

It can't be that they are here to protect the remaining people.

As for the rest of the human beings in this world, well, basically they were all killed.

That’s right, the Star Alliance has no intention of leaving anyone alive, even if the humans in this world are the descendants of their former compatriots.

But now that we have become enemies, I will naturally strike without mercy.

After all, they have a population of billions, so they certainly don't lack these people. Even if they absorb them, it will be a big trouble.

It would be better to kill them directly and use them as materials for war weapons, killing two birds with one stone.

"Okay, so what are your plans?" Lu Xingshi asked. He didn't really care where people stayed. When he was heading to the imperial capital, the concentration of the treasure's priesthood became increasingly higher.

After arriving, it has reached 50% condensation level, but now the condensation speed has decreased.

New stimulation is needed later, but for Lu Xingshi, this progress is just enough for his research.

"This... there is no plan. The main thing is to survive." Gato said bitterly.

Given the current situation, the entire Orei Empire... no, it should be the fantasy human race, only has one imperial capital left. What plans can they make?

It is impossible to surrender. It's not like someone hasn't tried before and was killed on the spot. They don't need prisoners at all.

So we can only defend it.

"By the way, all the top-level earth-attributed magical weapons and treasures in the treasury have been brought to you." As Cato said this, someone came in with things. It was obvious that they had been prepared when Lu Xingshi arrived in the imperial capital.

When Lu Xingshi saw this, his mentality did not change much. It was a normal thing to do in order to save his life.

Without saying a word, he collected them all, fed the magical weapons to the Earth Ring, and stuffed all the treasures on his body as much as he could equip.

"Given the current situation, we can only wait for Edward."

"If he succeeds, then everything will be fine, but I'm afraid it won't be that optimistic."

"Even if he is blessed by fate, the Star Alliance is likely to know about this."

"We have to be prepared for his failure." Lu Xingshi would definitely not choose to destroy the black hole shelter. Edward could do it, but he was not lucky enough.

Gato nodded: "The Imperial Capital has already made a plan."

"Are you prepared? What do you rely on?" Lu Xingshi asked.

"Kill as many as you can, and drag those monsters with you to die together." Cato answered calmly.

When Lu Xingshi heard this, he realized that this was indeed the solution.

"Also, the food in the imperial capital won't last long. It can only last about half a month at most. If this problem can't be solved..." Cato hesitated and raised the question.

"That's a big trouble." Lu Xingshi was also helpless this time. The main body was too far away and the warehouse could not be connected at all, so he could not get any food.

The most important thing is that there is no source of food. Outside, there are only war weapons, which are simply inedible. The only piece of meat is the group of biochemical monsters, but Lu Xingshi has checked and found that these biochemical monsters are simply inedible. Once eaten, the eater will experience symptoms such as muscle dissolution and blood solidification.

They are weapons of war, how can they really give you meat? That’s why they are poisonous in themselves.

"Let me find a way to get rid of the intelligent machines first." Lu Xingshi could only deal with them one by one at this time, what else could he do.

Compared with the other two types of war weapons, intelligent machines at least do not require contact. They can be paralyzed or even turned against them by remotely implanting viruses.

However, Lu Xingshi is not a professional. After all, he has followed many schools of thought before, most of which are cultivation-related and he has rarely come into contact with technological-related supernatural powers.

"Killing them one by one won't be as fast as the enemy's creation." Cato still has a lot of knowledge about intelligent machines.

"Yes, there are definitely no more." Lu Xingshi said confidently: "I don't plan to kill them all. I just want to control some of them and expand the defense line."

“See if we can grow something to alleviate the food crisis.”

Once there is not enough food, there will be a great famine and people will eat each other.

"Then what do you need? I will arrange someone to send it to you immediately." When Cato heard this, he thought it was indeed a good idea.

Anyway, we can hold out as long as we can, especially since there is no food crisis. Relying on the protective barrier left by Edward, we don't have to worry about the imperial capital being breached in the short term.

"There should be the remains of intelligent machines in the imperial capital, and then there is..." Lu Xingshi reported a lot of materials.

"I may not be able to get all of them for you. I can only try my best." Cato couldn't guarantee it.

"Then there's the environment. I need a..." It would be difficult for Lu Xingshi to make it by hand with just the materials, but if he could have enough equipment to help, the efficiency would be much higher.

He is only good at earth-related fighting skills and witchcraft. He is also good at fighting skills and witchcraft of other elemental attributes, but to be considered proficient, this is very average.

And most of his energy is not placed on fighting skills and witchcraft, but on stacking attributes.

Even the most basic ground spike technique can exert great power after his attributes and passive amplification.

Therefore, he rarely cares about these technical abilities.

In terms of combat, he uses the powerful flying brick to quickly increase his strength through cheating.

Cato recorded all of Lu Xingshi's requests and immediately arranged for people to carry them out.

"It will probably take about three hours, we..." Before Gato could finish his words, a violent explosion accompanied by vibrations broke out.

"It's the mechanic!" Cato said, "He was the one who had been targeting Archduke Edward."

"I didn't expect him to take advantage of Archduke Edward's absence and come with his omnic army to attack us."

"If it were him, without Archduke Edward, the protective barrier might not be able to stop him." Cato's expression revealed a hint of despair.

He believed that Lu Xingshi could fight, but the opponent had a steady stream of intelligent machines as cannon fodder, and the mechanic himself was a powerful mechanical transformer, so his strength should not be underestimated.

As for why Edward was able to block it, the reason was very simple, of course it was because of his three dragons.

"His strength is average. If he doesn't escape quickly, he won't be able to destroy the protective barrier before I kill him." Lu Xingshi didn't care.

Before he became a demigod, it was easy for Lu Xingshi to beat his opponents, not to mention that he is now a demigod.

I don't dare to say that I can take on the entire Star Alliance alone, but I have no problem defeating the strongest person in this group.

"I'll be back soon." Lu Xingshi said and walked straight outside.

Of course Cato wanted to stop it, but before he could grab Lu Xingshi, Lu Xingshi had disappeared.

Then, he felt the pressure and aura brought by the rock dragon beast after its appearance.

Within the range formed by these pressures and auras, all weapons of war are restricted.

The intelligent machines were disturbed and disrupted, unable to perform autonomous computing actions.

The biochemical monster couldn't move at all because its aura was directly suppressed.

The psychic monster was shocked at the soul level and lost consciousness immediately.

High-level coercion is indeed very useful, but it has one drawback: it does not distinguish between friend and foe.

Not only were the enemies suppressed by the elemental dragon might of the rock dragon beast, but everyone in the imperial capital also suffered as a result. The better ones were trembling with fear, while those who were almost cured fainted with their eyes rolled back. It was considered a lesser suffering.

Because of the appearance of the Rock Dragon Beast, the original offensive suddenly came to a halt. This is good news.

Gato struggled to get up and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Once Grand Duke Landon takes action, there will be such a big scene. I'm afraid the imperial capital will be in even greater trouble next." Cato knew that what Lu Xingshi did was indeed beneficial, but it would also provoke a more fierce offensive from the Star Alliance.

However, on second thought, even if Lu Xingshi was not there, the Star Alliance would not let them go. It would be better to try to let Lu Xingshi show his force to deter them, and maybe he could delay the situation for a while.
