How were the machines sent by the Slayer destroyed?
Qi Yuan carefully inspected the remains of the mechanical bodies nearby and discovered some strange things. Although these mechanical bodies appeared to be riddled with scars, only a small portion of these scars came from external forces. Most of them were destroyed by self-destruction.
It was not easy to detonate a Tier 6 machine from the inside. Even if Qi Yuan had the Mind Fortress and could find the location of the other party's core, it was not easy to detonate it from the inside.
The craftsmanship of these mechanical bodies had long been tested by war, and the craftsmanship was very skillful. To break the armor and detonate the core hub inside was almost as difficult as killing it directly. It was completely impossible to detonate all of them without much "external injuries" like the remains of these mechanical bodies.
Seeing these impossible things happen in front of him, Qi Yuan vaguely guessed a possibility. That was, the existence that detonated these machines not only knew the weaknesses of these machines very well, but also had the ability to restrain them.
Although the machines of the Mech Dynasty could not be said to be perfect, their various technical indicators had already become the benchmark of the new era. Even the Gate of Truth and Doomsday Munitions could only catch up. How could a buried machine ruin understand the machines of the Mech Dynasty out of thin air?
Unless the manufacturing process used by the Mech Dynasty's machines came from this ruin!
Only then could it be explained why the core of the Mech Dynasty's machines could be so easily detonated and destroyed.
This was a bit troublesome!
Qi Yuan furrowed his brows.
The Mech Dynasty was already very difficult to deal with. He was able to gain the upper hand many times because of the technological suppression brought by the Blazing Angel. Now that the Blazing Angel was lost in the hands of Slayer, and the technology of this ruin was obviously more advanced, it would not be easy to complete the check-in and take back the Blazing Angel.
Qi Yuan slightly sensed the check-in points in the ruins. There were not many of them, only three.
However, it was not easy to complete the check-in.
First of all, the entire ruins were very large. The furthest one was at least 30 kilometers away from him. Although these check-in points were in the same direction, he still had to cross the entire mechanical ruins to complete the check-in.
Secondly, the Check-In points here weren't clear. They all had a vague feeling, just like the two Check-In points in Meteor and Death Furnace. If there were no accidents, one would have to go through fierce battles one after another to complete the Check-In at these Check-In points.
The only good news was that there weren't many Check-Ins, only three. He only needed to complete three Check-Ins to step into the Sixth-Order.
Qi Yuan looked around. Although this place was called the Mechanical Wasteland, it did not look like a wasteland. Various metal buildings could be seen everywhere, and they were well-preserved. There was not even a layer of dust.
However, the void above his head seemed a little gray and unreal. It looked even more oppressive than the leaden clouds outside.
Qi Yuan made a simple estimation of the location and quietly approached the nearest checkpoint.
In order to avoid being discovered by possible enemies, Qi Yuan used the Spirit Fortress to shield all his fluctuations.
Not long after Qi Yuan left, he saw two slender silver-white humanoid machines patrolling not far away. Fortunately, the distance between the two sides was far enough, and the Spirit Fortress's shielding was effective, so it did not attract the other party's attention.
Without knowing the details, Qi Yuan was unwilling to fight with these unfamiliar machines, so Qi Yuan carefully chose to take a detour.
Relying on the Spirit Fortress's shielding, Qi Yuan avoided several groups of patrolling humanoid machines along the way. He was a little surprised by the number of humanoid machines.
If a battle really broke out and he couldn't finish off the target in a short time, the number of enemies would probably increase.
The metal buildings here were very tall. Metal towers could be seen everywhere, and there were also metal buildings with sharp edges and corners, exuding a sense of oppression from metal.
As he walked past a rectangular black building, Qi Yuan suddenly noticed something strange. There were still residual energy fluctuations in the surroundings that had not completely dissipated.
Qi Yuan quickly realized that a battle had broken out here not long ago!
But where did the battle wreckage go?
Qi Yuan looked around cautiously. The previous wreckage already proved that those who killed the Mechanical Palace's machines did not have the habit of cleaning up the battlefield.
Since there was a battle here, but there were no wreckage left. There were only two possibilities.
The first was that the Mechanical Palace won the battle and took away the opponent's wreckage.
The other was that the two sides did not decide a winner here and left.
Between the two possibilities, Qi Yuan was more inclined to the first one. From the wreckage at the beginning, it could be seen that if the Mechanical Palace's side was defeated, there was no way for them to escape.
If the Mechanical Ruins were defeated, the Explorers of the Mechanical Palace would not have let the other side leave.
Qi Yuan's eyes flashed. If the Mechanical Palace really won, it would undoubtedly be good news for him. The strongest Explorers of the Mechanical Palace were only at rank 6. Even the Slayer's body was only at rank 6. Since they could defeat the enemy, it meant that the enemy was not invincible. At the very least, he had the strength to defeat them.
Just as Qi Yuan was about to leave, Qi Yuan suddenly noticed that the corner of the rectangular metal building next to him was different from the rest.
Qi Yuan quietly moved closer. Although his Spiritual Stronghold was greatly suppressed, he was still able to discover this trace of abnormality.
The corner of the rectangular metal building seemed to have been opened by someone, and then a similar metal was used to repair the gap.
Although there was no trace of a gap from the outside, and the color was exactly the same, the difference in the quality of the metal could not be hidden from Qi Yuan. Below this corner, there was a metal wall that was half the height of a person, and it had been replaced.
Qi Yuan only needed to touch the wall with his hand to know that the replacement metal came from the mechanical body of the Mechanical King Court.
It was exactly the same material as the army's machines!
Who did this?
The place where the battle had taken place had also suffered some damage, but no one had repaired the damaged areas.
Here, however, was repaired.
This meant that the final winner of the two battles was not the same side!
Since the loser of the other battle was the Mechanical Ruins, the winner of this battle should be the Mechanical Palace.
If that was the case, why would the Mechanical Palace repair this place?
In the battles outside, the Mechanical Palace had always been in charge of killing, not burying. There must be a special reason for them to repair it this time.
Qi Yuan looked at the size of the repaired metal wall and vaguely guessed a possibility.
After a tough battle and defeating the enemies in the Mechanical Ruins, the Explorer of the Mechanical Palace chose to hide in order to avoid being pursued.
To Qi Yuan, in the entire Mechanical Ruins, other than Seraph and Nine, everyone else was an enemy.
If there was really an Explorer of the Mechanical Palace hiding here, it would be a good opportunity to find him and ask him some information about the Mechanical Palace.
Qi Yuan pressed one hand on the replaced wall and used his ability to melt it. The original metal wall was more than a meter thick, but this disguised wall was obviously much thinner, only about one-third of the original wall.
In less than a minute, the carefully disguised wall quietly melted, revealing a dark cave.
When the cave melted enough to enter, Qi Yuan flashed in without hesitation. Since the other party could secretly complete the repair of the damaged wall after hiding inside, it was enough to prove that there was no danger inside.
