Complete Martial Arts Attributes - Chapter 3100

Chapter 3038 Exploration! The Mechanical Forbidden Zone: The Mechanical Graveyard! Mechanical Psionic Energy!

Wang Teng stared at the blue light before him, his eyes gleaming.

He felt that the blue light resembled a graceful and alluring woman.

Previously, no matter how seductive it was, he was powerless against it, even getting pricked by this thorny rose.

But now, he had already removed one piece of its sexy clothing.

Hmm… only a small piece!

Because Wang Teng had only entered a small part of the area, not far at all.

Many more pieces remained, waiting for him to remove them.

Self-reliance is key.

But Wang Teng wasn’t in a hurry. He gazed at the area of blue light ahead, a thoughtful look in his eyes.

“The most urgent task is to collect the attribute bubbles. Developing mechanical runes is ultimately just a temporary measure. Only by gaining the corresponding insights and improving my mastery of mechanical runes can I move more freely within this blue light.”

Wang Teng quickly distinguished between what was important and what was urgent.

Understanding the situation behind the blue light was crucial, but if he couldn’t move freely within it, things would only become passive, wasting a lot of time.

Just now, Wang Teng used [Myriad Manifestations: Machine Soul Ant] twice, only to be annihilated both times, wasting a considerable amount of time.

Even with his speed, repeating this several times would be extremely troublesome.

Rather than that, it would be better to first understand the situation within the blue light, allowing his [Machine Soul Ant] to move freely within it.

This would make finding the problem behind the blue light much easier. Therefore,

Wang Teng immediately took action, controlling the [Machine Soul Ant] to explore forward.

He had already observed the runes within the blue light area ahead and made some changes to the evolution of the [Machine Soul Ant].

He did this because Wang Teng discovered that the runes within the blue light were not fixed; the runes in each area were different.

This was perhaps why the [Machine Soul Ant] had been found and annihilated before.

The runes were changing, but his evolved [Machine Soul Ant] remained the same—how could it not be detected?

If the power he used was the same as here, this awkward situation wouldn’t have occurred.

But unfortunately, the two powers were not entirely the same, only somewhat similar.

Therefore, Wang Teng had to alter the evolved power, constantly trying to approximate the power within the blue light.

This was the same situation as when the Blood God clone was in the core area of the [Dark Devouring Demon Body].

At that time, the evolution of the Blood God clone changed along with the power within the core area of the [Dark Devouring Demon Body].

Of course, the Blood God clone was already very familiar with the power within the core area of the [Dark Devouring Demon Body] at that time; it was simply a fusion of the power of those few Dark Species Demon Lords.

So even if there were changes, it wouldn’t be difficult for him.

Unlike now, Wang Teng’s understanding of those runes was still insufficient; any slight change in them would be a huge challenge for him.

Wang Teng could only change the evolution of the [Mechanical Soul Ant] step by step, synchronizing its power with the surrounding runes.

This was actually very troublesome.

But there was no other way; Wang Teng could only do this for the time being.

Time passed quickly, and Wang Teng controlled the [Mechanical Soul Ant] to forge a path through the blue light, finally contacting the first wave of attribute bubbles.

“Pick them up!”

Without hesitation, Wang Teng immediately picked up all the attribute bubbles.

He then ordered the [Mechanical Soul Ant] to remain in place while he silently absorbed the energy.

[Ancient Mechanical Rune *200]

[Ancient Mechanical Rune *180]

[Ancient Mechanical Rune *150]

…

[Mechanical Psionic Energy (Tier 6) *1200]

[Mechanical Psionic Energy (Tier 6) *1500]

[Mechanical Psionic Energy (Tier 6) *1000]

…

Familiar yet unfamiliar insights appeared in Wang Teng’s mind, transforming into numerous strange blue runes.

These blue runes were familiar because Wang Teng had just seen them before, and they shared characteristics with the [Ancient Mechanical Runes] he possessed, making them easily recognizable.

However, these runes were all completely new to Wang Teng, hence their unfamiliarity.

“Sure enough, corresponding attribute bubbles dropped out; now they’re all mine!”

Wang Teng smiled slightly, absorbing all the insights from these mechanical runes and integrating them into his memory.

In just a short moment, he mastered these mechanical runes he had never learned before.

A sudden realization dawned on Wang Teng. Now, if he were to further develop the runes, he wouldn’t need to imitate them; he could directly sketch them out.

He understood the function of these mechanical runes and could easily manipulate their changes, no longer worried about the variations in the runes within the blue light.

They changed, and he could change with them—it was a race to see who could change faster.

[Ancient Mechanical Rune]: 5600/10000 (Minor Success);

“Only a little over a thousand points of attribute value increased!”

Wang Teng’s eyes flashed, slightly disappointed. The attribute value was too low, and there weren’t many new runes corresponding to it.

However, he could understand, since he had only collected attribute bubbles from a small area.

He had just glanced at the runes within the blue light; although many were the same, each area had certain differences.

These differences in the runes were the source of the attribute bubbles.

It was clearly unrealistic for him to master all the [Ancient Mechanical Runes] within the blue light by collecting attribute bubbles from a small area.

One must take things one step at a time; there’s no rushing!

“That’s already pretty good. At least it improved my proficiency with [Ancient Mechanical Runes], and there are fewer unfamiliar mechanical runes within this blue light area.”

Wang Teng felt he should be satisfied and not ask for too much.

And look, he’d already taken off another piece of clothing from the “beauty” in front of him.

Romance!

This is all for fun!

Next, the second type of attribute bubble merged into Wang Teng’s body, transforming into a very special kind of energy.

“Mechanical Psionic Energy?!”

Wang Teng was deeply shaken, extremely surprised as he processed the information that surfaced in his mind.

The so-called mechanical psionic energy was a special, extremely advanced form of energy possessed by the Machine Race.

It originated from a forbidden area of the Machine Race

—the Mechanical Graveyard!

A graveyard burying countless mechanical beings.

A strange light flickered in Wang Teng’s eyes; this was the first time he’d heard of the existence of a mechanical tomb.

He’d previously speculated that the Mechanical Race might also possess a forbidden area similar to the Bone Spirit Race’s [Ruins of the Dead], which they’d summoned to the battlefield as a powerful means of combating the Dark Race.

After all, the range of that blue light was so vast, it was practically a massive forbidden area descending.

How similar it was to the situation when the Bone Spirit Race’s Demon Lord summoned the [Ruins of the Dead]!

But it was just wishful thinking.

At the time, Wang Teng thought he was being a bit delusional.

This idea was too outrageous!

How could the Mechanical Race possibly have a forbidden area like the [Ruins of the Dead]?

The two were completely different races, their power vastly different; even if they had a forbidden area, it couldn’t be similar.

The Mechanical Race wasn’t as sinister as the Bone Spirit Race.

But now, he was being told that the Mechanical Race also had a mechanical tomb!

Good heavens!

What a slap in the face!

Wang Teng subconsciously touched his face, feeling a slight pain. This was unfair.

Why would a perfectly good Mechanical Race need a tomb?!

“Couldn’t you use a more cheerful name?”

Wang Teng thought to himself, utterly exasperated. But now wasn’t the time to dwell on such things; he had more important matters to attend to.

Of course, before that, he needed to understand the situation of the [Mechanical Tomb], as it was related to his understanding of the so-called [Mechanical Psionic Energy].

So he immediately asked in his mind, “Roundy, do you know about the Mechanical Tomb?”

Roundy hadn’t expected Wang Teng to ask him at this moment, and paused for a moment before replying, “Mechanical Tomb?”

The words sounded somewhat familiar, but he didn’t know much about them.

“It’s a forbidden area for the Mechanical Race!” Wang Teng prompted.

“Wait a minute, let me check my database!” Countless data streams flashed in Roundy’s eyes. He quickly found the relevant information and couldn’t help but ask in surprise, “How did you know such confidential information?”

“Why do you care so much? Just tell me what you found,” Wang Teng said impatiently.

This little thing has quite a few questions.

“…” Roundy was momentarily speechless, feeling a bit annoyed, but seeing Wang Teng’s apparent urgency, he didn’t say much and immediately explained, “Do you know that the Machine Race actually existed a very long time ago?”

“That time might be at the very beginning of this universe’s creation.”

Wang Teng frowned, interrupting him, “The beginning of the universe?

Are you kidding me!

Aren’t the Machine Race intelligent life forms created by humans?

If they existed so long ago, then who created them?

Although the Machine Race is extremely powerful, there’s a generally accepted fact in the universe: the Machine Race was created by humans; they aren’t naturally generated like ordinary beings.

“It seems you have some misunderstanding about this!” Roundy said.

“Stop being so mysterious. Did you learn something from the Machine Race’s records?” Wang Teng immediately asked.

“Okay, you guessed right!” Roundy stuck out his tongue and said, “I did learn these things from the records of the Machine Race.”

“Anyway, according to their records, the Machine Race was born at the beginning of the universe, but how they were born is not widely known.”

“This race is too special!”

“Many high-ranking humans don’t know its secrets.”

“And it is rumored that the Machine Tomb has existed since the birth of the Machine Race. All the machines created by the Machine Race are buried there, and even machines forged by other races in the universe are collected and piled up there.”

“Over time, the name Machine Tomb spread, and many people know that such a place exists.”

“But not many people can enter it, so apart from the Machine Race, almost no one outside knows the specifics inside.”

After listening, Wang Teng seemed thoughtful and frowned, asking, “So, the Machine Tomb is just a place where machines are piled up? Is there anything else special about it?”

“Special?” Roundy was a little puzzled and asked in return, “Do you know something? If you do, you’d better tell me directly, otherwise I can’t guess.”

“There isn’t much information about the Mechanical Tomb, and my database doesn’t have many records either.”

Wang Teng didn’t hide anything and directly uttered four words: “Mechanical Psionic Energy!”

Roundy suddenly realized and said, “So that’s what you mean. According to the records of the Mechanical Race, [Mechanical Psionic Energy] is indeed related to the Mechanical Tomb, but…”

He paused, seemingly thinking of something strange.

“But what?” Wang Teng pressed.

“But this [Mechanical Psionic Energy] seems very special. This energy was discovered by the Mechanical Race within the Mechanical Tomb, not created by them!” Roundy said.

“Discovered!” Wang Teng was stunned, muttering the word to himself, thinking to himself, “No wonder the information didn’t mention it specifically; this energy seems a bit mysterious.”

“Wang Teng, where did you learn about the existence of this [Mechanical Psionic Energy]? Even that Mechanical Race True God didn’t seem to have used it, right?” Roundy asked curiously.

“Have you forgotten the blue energy beam from before?” Wang Teng said.

“You mean that was Mechanical Psionic Energy?!” Roundy’s eyes widened in surprise.

“So after all that, you still don’t know?” Wang Teng chuckled, exasperated.

“Isn’t this normal? I’ve only been with the Machine Race for a short time, how could I possibly know about such advanced core energy?” Roundy said irritably.

“That’s true!”

Wang Teng couldn’t help but smile.

He ignored Roundy and focused his attention back on the [Mechanical Psionic Energy] within his body.

From the information he sensed, he hadn’t been completely clueless.

At least he knew that this [Mechanical Psionic Energy] was extremely unstable and could easily explode if left uncontrolled.

Conversely, if it was controlled and concentrated for a powerful burst, it would generate terrifying power, which was the source of the previous blue beam.

“I never imagined there was such a strange energy in the world!”

Wang Teng shook his head, unsure how to describe it.

But regardless, this [Mechanical Psionic Energy] was quite remarkable, seemingly comparable to powerful forces like spatial energy.

[Mechanical Psionic Energy]: 8500/60000 (Sixth Tier);

“Sixth tier, so it’s also divided into ranks!”

Wang Teng glanced at the attribute panel, somewhat surprised.

Ranked attributes possess immense potential, like [Calamity Power] and [Supreme Dark Power].

It’s clear that the methods of the Light Universe are not much inferior to those of the Dark World.

“However, these [Mechanical Psionic Energy] within me seem a bit unruly!”

Wang Teng looked at the dark blue energy gathering in the Chaotic Starfield, feeling a headache coming on.

After gathering, this energy began to stir, becoming increasingly unstable, seemingly ready to explode at any moment.

Wang Teng was terrified.

This was the first time he’d encountered such restless energy after subduing it through attribute bubbles, seemingly out of control.

“I must put them into ‘dormant’ first, and then activate them when needed!” Wang Teng’s mind raced, finding a solution from the information he had gleaned. (End of Chapter)
