Chapter 286: The Sweep
The 180,000 armed robots departed as a mighty legion with an incomparably formidable air.
Lin Feng did not actually formulate any strategy. What strategy was needed for a sweep within a radius of only a thousand miles? He just had to crush any and all dire beasts along the way!
Only by turning this area of a thousand miles into an absolutely safe zone could he consider his goal successful.
The 180,000 robots were actually very easy to command. Lin Feng could command them alone. This was because they were all just programs, and they were born killing machines. War was what they were best suited for!
With a single order, they could unleash a terrifying ma.s.sacre. If Lin Feng were leading 180,000 martial artists, things would be completely different. It would be very difficult.
!!
Moreover, these 180,000 armed robots moved very quickly. After leaving the ruins, Lin Feng charged in one direction. He wanted to sweep through all the dire beasts in the area, one direction at a time.
The sweep practically combed through the place, not missing a single area.
Lin Feng’s action immediately caught the attention of the military.
“General, Sage Lin Feng has activated a large number of robots. The robot army is roughly estimated to number close to 200,000!”
The military personnel’s voice was trembling. That was 200,000 armed robots! How nerve-wrecking was it to see so many armed robots on screen?
Moreover, the military had suffered heavy losses due to these robots previously. Yet, at that time, there were at most only tens of thousands of these armed robots.
“There’s no need to be nervous. Sage Lin Feng has already confirmed that he will establish his own faction. Looks like Sage Lin Feng is preparing to sweep through this area and establish his headquarters here.”
The Five-star General, General Long, was not too nervous. He already knew the outcome of the Conference of Sages. With a little deduction, he naturally knew Lin Feng’s goal.
However, while he wasn’t nervous, that did not mean he wasn’t paying attention.
This was a rare opportunity to see the combat power of the armed robots under Lin Feng’s command.
“Pay close attention!”
Basically, it only received the attention of the military. Moreover, once Lin Feng swept through this area, it would also be a good thing for the military.
This area could be considered the depths of the Outland. There were dire beasts everywhere. For this reason, the military had set up more than a dozen frontline bases. If Lin Feng could sweep through this area, the military could also withdraw these frontline bases.
“Dire beasts ahead.”
Lin Feng’s eyes narrowed slightly. He led the robot army and crushed his way through. The scattered dire beasts they encountered were almost no challenge at all.
That lasted until now, when he encountered a type of dire beast not far ahead called the Fanged Beast.
These Fanged Beasts were ma.s.sive, second only to Proboscis Beasts. Moreover, they had fangs. They were also dire beasts specializing in strength and defense, and were very difficult to deal with.
Moreover, they were numerous. According to the military’s estimate, there were more than 30,000 Fanged Beasts.
In order to resist the Fanged Beasts, the military had specially set up two frontline bases.
At this moment, the martial artists from the two frontline bases had already discovered the densely packed robot army rushing over from afar. Fortunately, they had already received orders from the military and knew that it was the robot army led by the newly ascended Sage Lin Feng, so no misunderstanding occurred.
Atop the base fortress, many martial artists were paying attention to the robot army in the distance.
“It’s Sage Lin Feng. Who would have thought that the Sage would actually strike personally?”
“Haha, I’m from Central Sea City. A Sage has originated from our Central Sea City. I never even dared to dream of it.”
“These robot armies are really terrifying. Although they didn’t attack our base previously, I know that the other bases suffered heavy losses. Fortunately, Sage Lin Feng controlled them. Now, they can also be used by us humans.”
“That’s right. Let’s see how powerful these robots can be under Sage Lin Feng’s lead.”
“Let those Fanged Beasts have a good taste of these terrifying robots.”
Practically no one was afraid. After all, there was a Sage here. Why would they ever fear that the Fanged Beasts would attack the base?
This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that could only be chanced upon by luck. They might even be able to witness a Sage strike with their own eyes.
Soon, Lin Feng discovered the Fanged Beasts.
In reality, the moment Lin Feng’s robot army entered the territory of the Fanged Beasts, these Fanged Beasts had already discovered it. They were dire beasts with a certain degree of intelligence, with demon generals among them.
Hence, when Lin Feng saw these Fanged Beasts, he saw tens of thousands of them, all staring at the robot army menacingly.
This lineup was far stronger than the Screwworms that Lin Feng had encountered back then, as well as the Terrestrial Ants and Pangolin Beasts that he had encountered in the North and South Mountain Bases. No wonder they had never been able to deal with the Fanged Beasts, even with two military bases.
“Destroy the Fanged Beasts ahead!”
Lin Feng’s gaze was cold as he immediately gave orders to all the robots.
Immediately, the robot army moved. As many as 180,000 robots surged forward in an orderly manner like a tide. Facing those ferocious Fanged Beasts, the armed robots were almost at no disadvantage.
They even used energy weapons to attack the Fanged Beasts from a distance.
This was a one-sided ma.s.sacre. Not only could the use of energy weapons kill a large number of Fanged Beasts, even in close combat, the Fanged Beasts could not get any upper hand.
The Fanged Beasts did not have any advantage against robots covered in metal.
Lin Feng flew in the air and watched coldly.
As the robots charged, the aggressive Fanged Beasts fell in droves like wheat being scythed. Even if some Fanged Beasts charged into the robots occasionally, they were like drops of water falling into the vast ocean, dissipating without even a splash.
“Grr…”
Those demons were completely enraged. Among the 30,000 Fanged Beasts, there were at least a hundred demons, and there were three demon generals. They were the strongest dire beasts Lin Feng had ever seen.
As the hundreds of demons charged in a frenzy, they caused some chaos in the robot army, but that was all. Facing the demons, these robots quickly surrounded them, segregated them, and used their superior firepower. In just a few minutes, the hundreds of demons were trapped in a desperate situation.
Lin Feng’s heart skipped a beat. No wonder the military encountered constant defeat before these robots. Hundreds of demons were killed just like that. If it were a Metamorphic Realm martial artist, they would definitely not be much better off.
However, there were still three demon generals. They were indeed extraordinary. As they rampaged through the robots, it nonetheless caused some damage to the robots.
However, Lin Feng did not order the Guardian to attack immediately. Instead, he watched on coldly.
He also wanted to see how strong these armed robots were and if they could handle the situation.
