#986 - Chapter 986: Ready to Take Action

"Dad, is there a possibility that the Lost Divine Artifact isn't in Guiguzi's hands?" Natta asked.

"That's unlikely. If the Lost Divine Artifact wasn't with Guiguzi, how could he be so all-knowing?" Dongfang Chen Er waved his hand, denying the possibility.

"That's true." Natta nodded.

Six hours later.

The seawater in the middle of the cylindrical shield had been completely drained.

The Zerg's dinosaur mechs successively arrived at the seabed.

"Creak, creak ~"

Some transport mechs opened the passage doors on their bellies, and a large number of mechanical beetles, each several tens of centimeters tall, crawled out.

It seems their target is indeed this ancient ship.

The mechanical beetles rapidly disassembled the ship and crawled continuously in the mud.

Mengka had been closely monitoring the nine locked-on items, wanting to know which one they were looking for.

"Mengka, be ready to move at any time," Dongfang Chen Er reminded.

"Okay!" Mengka nodded solemnly.

Everyone was very nervous, afraid that even a moment of carelessness would allow the enemy to seize the initiative.

These mechanical beetles didn't seem interested in metallic substances; all gold, silver, copper, and iron products were excluded.

They also ignored jade.

Therefore, after eliminating the other possibilities, the greatest likelihood was either the golden thread puppet or the luminous pearl.

Soon, a group of mechanical beetles stopped in front of a wooden box.

"Ga ga ~"

They made a strange cry, seeming to have found it.

"Move!" Dongfang Chen Er shouted.

Mengka gave an order, and the entrance to his small world opened.

A large number of Transformers poured out, rushing in all directions.

The first few to emerge rushed directly to the large ship, picked up the wooden box, and threw it into the small world.

Mengka immediately arranged for Transformers to transport the wooden box to Black Death Star.

Since the small world's exit could be opened at any anchored location, the Transformers could shuttle between Blue Star and Black Death Star in a very short time.

"Roar ~"

The Zerg's dinosaur mechs were enraged.

They roared and immediately launched an attack on the Transformers.

"Mengka, take the other locked-on items as well, and evacuate immediately."

"Okay."

Mengka's small world contained trillions of Transformers; sending out a small portion was enough to easily entangle the dinosaur mechs.

Then, a Transformer used this time to split into hundreds of small Transformers and began searching for the remaining eight items.

Since they were locked on in advance, finding them didn't take much time at all.

Once all the items were found, Mengka directly closed the entrance to his small world.

The Transformers left outside drew their light swords and attacked the hollow cylindrical shield.

The four-dimensional light swords could directly tear apart the spatial shield, and the seawater instantly rushed back in under immense pressure.

The Transformers and a large number of dinosaur mechs were all swallowed by the seawater.

Whether these dinosaur mechs were waterproof was unknown, but the Transformers were completely unafraid.

"Buzz ~"

After the seawater flowed back, a sudden, intense shockwave appeared.

"Crack ~, crack ~"

The dinosaur mechs were attacked by something unknown and shattered completely in an instant.

The Transformers didn't fare much better.

This shockwave actually had electromagnetic properties, and the Transformers' neural molecular clusters were destroyed, resulting in almost complete annihilation.

It seems that this unknown source of attack was the main reason for the interference with the subspace probe's communication signal.

Fortunately, the subspace probe, hidden within a spatial bubble, was not destroyed, but communication had been completely interrupted.

On Dongfang Chen Er's side, the connection was cut off the moment the seawater rushed back in.

"Let's go, let's go take a look at those items," Dongfang Chen Er said.

The three moved into Mengka's small world.

To ensure safety, Mengka had specially created a new second-layer small world and placed all the items inside.

"Let's look at these three jade cong first," Dongfang Chen Er said, looking at the three nearly identical, 40-centimeter-tall white jade cong in front of him.

"Do you want to avoid this first?" Mengka asked.

"Just get me a set of space armor," Dongfang Chen Er replied.

"Alright."

Soon, Mengka found him a set of space armor.

Then, he activated the first jade cong and deployed a communication relay.

The entrance to the small world appeared.

Dongfang Chen Er took the lead and walked in.

Mengka and 100 Transformers followed closely behind.

As soon as Dongfang Chen Er entered, he was immediately attracted by the scenery inside.

The place they entered was right next to a small stream.

"Shua shua shua ~"

Clear stream water flowed in the stream.

"Goo goo goo ~"

Amongst the trees, birds cheerfully chirped and flew.

In the valley, wisps of green smoke rose, like a human paradise.

By the stream, two children wearing bibs were playing.
