I'm in the Teyvat running group

It is indeed capable of completing maintenance tasks, but of course, the pilot needs to utilize its full capabilities.

Yunzhi's plan was to build four units, but it was impossible to leave no redundancy, so in the end, a total of six units were built, and nine pilots were prepared.

Of course, the selection of pilots is also quite troublesome, because the first test alone, which is to dodge the bombardment of dozens of magic arrays or the Returning Machine, requires the mecha to maintain a speed of Mach 3 or higher at all times...

This directly means that those below the fifth ring can disregard the challenge. Yunxiu once tried driving it himself and found that at Mach 3 or 4, whether braking or making an emergency turn, it required enduring an overload of around 40G.

Even the Teyvat's physical body can barely withstand the attacks of a fourth-rank cultivator, and only those above the fifth rank can handle them with relative ease.

With Inazuma not yet having fully implemented the magic training system, selecting pilots is very difficult.

Ultimately, Yunxiu had no choice but to select from the strongest pilots in Liyue and Inazuma, choosing three Inazuma pilots and four Liyue pilots. As for the last one...

Linni's younger brother, Fimini, was surprisingly talented at piloting. He quickly mastered the skill after testing and became the first pilot.

In addition, Inazuma's yokai Kirara, Kanoin Heizo, the younger brother of the Kano Shrine Maiden, Shigeo, one of Kumo's childhood friends, and Toma, the steward of the Shamonuchi family, all joined this group.

After handing over the training to Xiaogong and having her conduct simulation tests with several mechs, Yunxiu went to the main control room and found Yunzhi, who was methodically assigning tasks.

"What's the current situation?" Yunxiu looked at the huge screen filled with numerous dots of light and various data, and after thinking for a moment, asked, "Approximately how long will it take before we can be deployed for the first wave of operations?"

"It's been fifteen days since construction began... the first round of testing can begin in approximately ninety-six hours." Yun Zhi casually extended a finger, which transformed into an interface connecting to the computing power matrix.

"The construction progress has reached 85.6% at present. If an emergency is needed, it can be put into use in as little as 38 hours."

"Fourteen warships have been deployed, and the terminal machines, including those carried by the warships, total 228 units with 744 doors, 218 level nine magic arrays, 864 level eight magic arrays, 2286 level seven magic arrays, and 207,000 level six and below magic arrays... How is the maintenance force doing?"

“It’s already assembled.” Yunxiu continued, “How’s the energy core?”

“Very stable. This energy core seems to have been refined, possessing energy output at the ‘Commander’ level.” Yun Zhi pondered for a moment, then took out a special chip and handed it to Yun Xiu: “Now there’s another troublesome task…”

"what?"

"The first wave of attack will inevitably be the strongest, and we will certainly need to adjust our strategy accordingly." Yun Zhi opened the map and pointed to the sea area opposite He Guan:

"But no one knows the specific situation in the outer sea, so it would be best to go and investigate."

Exploration...

It wasn't that Yunxiu hadn't considered this, but the difficulty of exploration was considerable. In the Dark Outer Sea, demon gods could indeed roam freely, so legendary level beings should have no problem as well.

But the unknown is the most dangerous; no one knows exactly what lies in the dark outer sea.

Perhaps... sacrificing one mech and then using projection technology to fly over is also a solution...

Thinking of this, Yunxiu replied, "I'll take care of this problem."

"Then please do it as soon as possible." Yunzhi nodded and threw himself back into his busy work.

-----------------

Speaking solely of projection technology itself, Yunxiu has developed it to a fairly advanced level. With the help of the computing power matrix amplification, Yunxiu can extend the range of projection technology to over 1000 kilometers.

While this isn't enough to get him from Heguan to the Dark Sea, it will certainly allow him to operate in a relatively safe place—he can then find Yueji or other powerful individuals to protect him.

As for mechs...

Yunxiu looked at her backpack with a pained expression. In the current situation, she could only rely on [Weakening Prayer] to forcibly create one...

The wish to replicate itself does not involve issues of life, so it is basically the same as the cost. Apart from all the materials used to make the mecha, it still consists of three pieces of nine-ring level monster materials.

With a gentle touch, the monster materials melted instantly, mixing with the materials used to manufacture the mecha.

In just a few dozen seconds, a mecha more than 30 meters tall appeared in front of Yunxiu.

Then, a projection split off from Yunxiu's body, and both the projection and Yunxiu herself entered the mecha's control room. The mecha also accelerated instantly and rushed out of the hangar.

"Tsukihime! Tsukihime! Come with me to the vicinity of the Dark Outer Sea!" Seeing Tsukihime on guard nearby, Yunxiu opened the control room door of the mecha and shouted, "Only you can go with me on this matter!"

"You're here! Why are you shouting so loudly!" Yue Ji shouted nonchalantly, transforming into a streak of light as she rushed into the control room: "Why are there two of you?"

"One is projection, which has a limited range, and my body will need to enter a state of sleep at that time."

"Oh……"

"Want to come and have some fun?" Yunxiu laughed. "Although it's nowhere near as powerful as you are, it'll still be a unique kind of fun."

"I'll give it a try!" Tsukihime excitedly sat in the driver's seat, touching the crystal with both hands, and soon she figured out how to drive.

"Hold on tight!" The mech's nozzles spewed out a ghostly blue tail flame, and with a sudden acceleration, it created a sonic boom cloud, speeding towards the dark outer sea at a speed of Mach 5 or higher!

"You enhanced it with your own energy?"

"Yes."

Yunxiu shook her head helplessly. Even the three Eternal Calamity Dragon Beast cores seemed far inferior to the power of the legendary expert Yueji...

Crane View was already not far from the edge of the Dark Outer Sea, even much closer than to Narukami Island. At Mach 5, the two of them reached the edge of the Dark Outer Sea in less than twenty minutes.

"Let's do it here." Yunxiu pointed to an island, and Yueji aimed and landed the mecha steadily on the island.

It is a rather small island, its only advantage being its height, about four or five hundred meters, standing on the edge of the dark outer sea like a giant pillar.

Yunxiu took a liking to this thing because... it's very easy to set up a computing power matrix.

Taking out a six-sphere computing matrix from her storage bag, setting it up, and adjusting the frequency, Yunxiu projected her will onto the projection, jumped into the mech, and closed the hatch:

"Protect my body. If this mecha and this projection cannot return, we will go back again after my consciousness returns."

"careful!"

The mechs left a trail of fire in the air battle, tracing a V-shape before speeding off towards the dark outer sea.

"Let's start with something interesting..." Yunxiu immediately used a transformation spell, transforming the entire mecha into the appearance of the Eternal Calamity Dragon Beast.

He then unleashed the newly developed spell [Simulated Energy], directly simulating the most primal Void Force. Finally, he activated the Flame Shield, covering the 'Eternal Calamity Dragon Beast's' shell with a thin layer of flames that possessed considerable damage reflection capabilities.

He had used this tactic when he infiltrated the Wind Dragon Ruins years ago.

But now, with the use of simulated energy and projection techniques, his safety and camouflage capabilities have reached a new level...

I have just tested the projection's maximum transmission distance, which is around 1200 kilometers. The island I chose is about 120 kilometers away from the outer sea of ​​darkness, which means that the maximum range of activity is only about 1100 kilometers.

This distance is not small, but it is not large relative to the whole world.

Soon, Yunxiu found a rift in the dark outer sea and entered this dark ocean along the rift.

It was less like a sea and more like a tidal wave of energy. As soon as Yunxiu entered, she felt the extremely rough mixing of the power of the void and the power of the light realm. A large number of energy ripples brought wave after wave of impact to the mecha.

Fortunately, the mech's parameters are quite good, reaching the level of a ninth-ring level monster, and the output of the perpetual mechanism is also quite stable.

He slowed down to about 300 kilometers per hour, at which point he could thoroughly search almost all the areas he could see.

Speaking of monster groups and large monsters alone, Yunxiu has already seen quite a few, such as a group of small rock dragons near the abyss-transformed ancient rock dragons, and many small hippocampians behind the giant hippo thugs.

Many of the monsters in the Abyss deliberately imitate the native species of Teyvat, as this is also a way of life for them.

The deeper they flew into the Dark Outer Sea, the more numerous and powerful the monster groups became. Yunxiu also saw a group of monsters mimicking the war machines of Kanria.

They were gathered under the leadership of a legendary giant monster, and they all seemed to have a certain level of intelligence.

The legendary monster was actually simulating a strange machine that Yunxiu had never seen before. It was larger than the Twenty-Year Eternal Calamity Dragon Beast and not much different from the three giant "Guardian Mechanisms" in Sumeru, but it was completely dragon-shaped.

It also has two enormous claws, a model I've never seen before.

"One, two, three..." Yunxiu counted them one by one. At least as he was about to reach his limit, he had only discovered fourteen legendary-level demonic creatures. He breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"If it's this level, we should be able to handle it with some difficulty this time..."

After saying that, he landed on a small island, which was several hundred meters long and wide, and had a very peculiar material, with a texture similar to scales.

But as soon as the plane landed, alarms went off in the cabin, sounding incessantly as if there was a malfunction!

"This island... is it a monster?" Yunxiu flew around the island once, but the alarm was still going off. He flew a little further and landed on another similar island, where the alarm was still going off!

"Is the energy detector broken?" Yunxiu asked in confusion. He opened the hatch and threw an energy blast out. The detector clearly reported the value: <A-, energy level 5237>. The reason it was relatively low was because the artifact could not be projected at this distance, and Yunxiu was currently at a bare plate.

"The detector...it's not broken? Wait a minute..." Yunxiu suddenly realized a terrifying possibility. He quickly flew to a high altitude and began counting the number of islands:

"1, 2, 3, 4, 5... and then the extended lines converge at one point... could that be a claw from a monster's claw?!" He looked at the dark red sphere in the distance. He had initially thought it was a monster, but if the claws were this large, then it was very likely...

"It's an eye! A god-level demon has really invaded!" Yunxiu's mind went into overdrive, and she could barely contain her emotions.

He gently maneuvered the mecha, slowing it down to its maximum speed, and slowly flew towards the monster's giant eye.

Even if the mecha and this projection are destroyed, he still wants to see what this enormous, god-level monster really is!

Which demon is this?

Chapter 164 Use your lightsaber on her! (First update this Friday!)

How enormous is a monster whose fingernail is hundreds of meters wide?

Yunxiu flew slowly for at least two minutes and still hadn't found the edge.

Although it is said to fly slowly, the mech's actual low-speed propulsion speed is still over 200 kilometers per hour.

However, by the time Yunxiu discovered the thing that looked like a tail, almost ten minutes had already passed.

Although there were detours in the search for the location, it was enough to show that it was a super monster with a body length of forty to fifty kilometers...

Even considering the pressure that would occur upon entering Teyvat, this size is actually over ten kilometers. In terms of size alone, it is even larger than Oser!

Ying... can no longer use the Dharma of Heaven and Earth.

It's unlikely that we could mobilize hundreds of thousands of troops from Liyue to power Luminous, and the number of soldiers in Inazuma who have learned Elemental Barrier and mastered elemental power is far less than that.

The good news is that Yunxiu did not sense any "divinity" in this magical beast, which means that it is still within the legendary category, only its destructive power and energy level have reached the level of a demon god.

“It should still be asleep…” The magic check might disturb him, so Yunxiu chose a spell modified from the detection magic. With only passive perception, he could feel that the magical beast’s energy fluctuations were very stable.

As for energy levels...

Energy level detectors cannot detect such high energy levels.

Yunxiu just checked along the way, and the lowest level of Legendary is only around 30,000. This is probably because Legendary is a lower limit.

The highest level is close to 90,000, which is much higher than Yue Ji. However, Yue Ji is a newly promoted legend. She is only strong in combat due to the blessing of the artifact. In reality, her energy level is only at the intermediate level.

The energy level detector has detected that the highest level among legendary powerhouses in the past few days is the True Monarch of Moon-Slicing and Sun-Building, which is as high as 97,000. This roughly means that 100,000 should be the lower limit of a demon god.

Since this demonic beast is stronger than a demon god but lacks divinity, there are only two possibilities.

First, he did not possess "divinity" or, in other words, "laws," such as powers like "covenants" or "eternity."

The second one is more terrifying—was this monster really evolved naturally?
