Chapter 58 Re-entry
The thirteenth tribe, the Deer Horn Tribe.
The same perfunctory approach resulted in only 3,000 tons of raw ore being mined in three months.
Chen Yao did not hesitate. This time, he did not let Gui Yi make a move to capture people. Instead, he directly ordered the ship's guns to cover and clear the area, making it clean and efficient.
In the end, the three disobedient tribes were reduced to dust by the cannons of the Sky Patrol.
……
In the main control room of the warship, Chen Yao leaned back in the captain's chair, expressionless.
He was not a bloodthirsty person, but in this boundless starry sky, there have never been any rules, and mercy was an extremely unfamiliar and luxurious word.
Whether it is an individual entity or an entire civilization behind it, if it wants to continuously strengthen itself and not be threatened or enslaved by other civilizations, it must be ruthless enough.
"Now, it's time to get down to business."
After confirming the amount of raw ore extracted from several mining sites, Chen Yao did not linger any longer. The Sky Patrol ship turned and headed straight for the location of Mount Taina.
The Xuan Tian Trial Space, third round.
With a thought, Chen Yao touched the [Starfield Patrol Beacon].
The secret patterns on the hexagonal crystal disk lit up with a soft white light, resonating slightly with the spatial node on the mountainside of Mount Taina. In the next instant, the spatial fluctuations gradually intensified, and soon the Sky Patrol was once again drawn into that Xuan Tian Trial Space.
Chen Yao's gaze narrowed slightly as he looked through the gray mist and landed on the celestial palace that still floated in the distance.
[Challengers, the third round of trials has begun!]
Upon hearing the trial notification in his ear, Chen Yao simultaneously issued commands to the second-tier gargoyle behind him.
"Oniichi, prepare for battle."
Whoohoo!
The gargoyle, clad in exoskeleton armor, suddenly spread its wings, a glint of blood flashing in its bluish-gray vertical pupils.
……
Zizizi!
As soon as the notification sound for the trial space faded, the gray-white mist around them began to churn violently.
Before long, dark figures began to emerge from the mist.
Ironwood golem.
They were still ironwood puppets, three hundred in total, but the aura emanating from their bodies was far superior to before, reaching a true first-tier level.
These puppets, created by puppeteers from the cultivation side, are different from the terracotta warriors summoned by the puppet soldier components on the Firewood Warship.
The former involves the puppeteer carefully selecting top-quality materials, using special forging methods and a unique energy core, and finally nurturing it with their own pure magic power for a considerable period of time before a qualified puppet can be successfully created.
In contrast, the puppet soldiers summoned by the Firewood Warship are standardized creatures summoned by consuming some psionic energy, relying solely on the unique effects of the artifacts themselves. Although both are puppet products, their actual combat power is worlds apart.
Therefore, Chen Yao dared not underestimate him in the slightest at this moment.
Swish swish!
One after another, first-tier ironwood golems charged straight at the Sky Patrol, but Chen Yao remained calm throughout.
"Mystic Mirror Light Cannon, charge!"
His voice was calm as he directed the Sky Patrol to activate the main guns of the warships.
At the bow, the purple main gun, upgraded to level 30, began to gather purple light.
This time, the energy storage time was longer than before, and the energy fluctuations at the muzzle became more and more intense, even causing the surrounding air to distort.
"fire!"
Before the group of ironwood puppets could get close to the Sky Patrol, the [Mysterious Mirror Light Cannon] fired first.
A purple beam of light shot out from the bow of the Sky Patrol ship, like a giant sword determined to pierce through the heavens and earth, and plunged into the area where the ironwood puppets were most densely packed to the side.
boom!
Wherever the beam of light passed, the first-tier ironwood golems were easily torn apart and pierced, as if they were made of paper.
Previously, the near-first-tier ironwood golems had rendered the [Particle Energy Cannon] somewhat ineffective, but the [Mysterious Heaven Mirror Light Cannon] was different. With a quality as high as purple and having been strengthened to level 30, it quickly pierced through the second, third, fourth, and fifth ironwood golems after directly shattering the first one.
Until the purple beam of light completely dimmed, there were already double-digit numbers of first-tier ironwood golems that had fallen victim to this attack.
Seeing this, Chen Yao couldn't help but smile.
Although I guessed that the power of the purple-quality [Mystic Mirror Light Cannon] would be incredibly amazing, the current result is still somewhat beyond my expectations.
It should be noted that this is only the normal attack of the [Mysterious Heaven Mirror Light Cannon]. He has not activated the "Mysterious Heaven Illuminating Divine Light" attack characteristic. Once this active attack characteristic is activated, its power will surely continue to surge.
However, Chen Yao was not in a hurry to activate this attack characteristic. During the buffering process of the [Mysterious Heaven Mirror Light Cannon], he simply controlled the two white secondary cannons to fire at full power.
The red beams of the laser cannons and the pulse waves of the pulse silencers swept across the area, intercepting the ironwood puppets that tried to get close. Even Gui Yi did not make a move.
For the current Sky Patrol, these ordinary Tier 1 puppets are almost no threat. They can be easily wiped out with just a little time.
Given this, Chen Yao naturally decided to save his trump card for the more difficult fourth or even fifth round.
The final battle ended much faster than expected.
In less than twenty minutes, the last ironwood puppet was also completely disintegrated under the bombardment of the Xuan Tian Mirror's light cannon, and the third round of the Xuan Tian Trial was officially completed.
Throughout the process, the Sky Sweeper's [Strong Magnetic Pulse Shield] did not overload, and still had about 20% of its shield value remaining. Therefore, he did not rush to challenge the next round.
Instead, he waited quietly for several tens of minutes until the [Strong Magnetic Pulse Shield], which he had actively deactivated, completed its buffering process and reactivated before Chen Yao began the fourth round of challenges.
……
After the familiar mist surged, a group of puppets, completely different from the previous ironwood puppets, rushed out of the mist.
Demon Bone Puppet.
Having already learned about the Xuantian Sect in advance, Chen Yao recognized the identities of these giant puppets at first glance.
The Demon Bone Puppet, constructed by the Xuantian Sect from the bones of various beasts, is far larger than the Ironwood Puppet.
Their movements were slow, each step accompanied by a faint "creaking" sound, but their power and the aura emanating from their bodies had clearly reached the quasi-second tier.
As for the number, it remains three hundred.
Clearly, the difficulty of this fourth round of trials has increased once again.
"Ghost One, make your move."
Chen Yao finally let Gui Yi make a move.
With a high-frequency flapping of its wings, the surface of the Stone Statue II exoskeleton armor was swept by bursts of cold, eerie light. The next second, Ghost One transformed into a blur and rushed out of the warship through the half-open hatch of the Sky Patrol.
Soon, a violent collision sound came from outside the warship, interspersed with one or two sharp cracking sounds. That was the process of Gui Yi using his back wings as blades to easily cut and dismantle the demon bone puppet.
As a genuine second-tier enslaved creature, although its combat strength is only average among second-tier creatures, it is by no means something that a so-called quasi-second-tier puppet can mess with.
At the same time, the three naval guns on the Sky Patrol were also firing at full power, continuously and frantically strafing the enemy.
