In the hollow underground, in the shadow of a dark street corner, the air was slightly flooded with imperceptible transparent ripples.

Outside the corner, a passing centaur puppet soldier stared at the orange-red electronic eyes and walked by, the metal shovel stepped on the hardened stone road and made a muffled sound, as it passed by this street corner, it seemed to notice something, the electronic eyes suddenly flickered, and then stopped, and suddenly 'clicked' to turn its neck to look at the shadow position in the corner.

And before the centaur puppet soldier could look over, the ripple that had been in the corner of the wall had already regained its calm.

The centaur puppet soldier stared at the corner of the wall for a few seconds, its orange electronic eyes glowing slightly red, and suddenly it raised its hand and slashed at the corner with a sharp swing of its broad blade.

With a bang, a wave of pale red qi spread out with the slash of the broad blade, hitting the corner of the wall, sweeping all the places in the corner, and a little dust rolled up.

The centaur puppet soldier's orange and reddish electronic eyes carefully observed the corner of the wall for a moment, until the slashing qi subsided and the smoke and dust subsided, and it didn't notice anything wrong, and the red glow in the electronic eyes faded and turned back to the orange signal.

With a click, the broadblade was retracted, and the centaur golem retracted his gaze and resumed his patrol.

Half a minute after the centaur puppet soldier left, a dark smart eye silently appeared in the air in the shadow of an eaves in the opposite alley of the corner of the wall it had observed, and it turned to look around.

If the centaur puppets had been able to explore the area thoroughly, they might have spotted a fist-sized, transparent orbular creature lying in the corner of the eaves.

After maintaining the stealth state of "transparency", after confirming the safety of the surroundings, it began to ask Jiang Yan what to do next in the "dimensional stomach" space hidden in his body.

Although Jiang Yan and Xiao Bai had broken away from the roots of the giant tree before, and had not alarmed any puppet soldiers, they did not leave this underground cavern directly, but found an opportunity to lurk on the ground.

At that time, Xiaobai directly used the spatial storage characteristics of the "dimensional stomach" to put Jiang Yan into his body, and at the same time, it also split out a small doppelganger to explore the way, and after using the invisible small doppelganger to successfully reach the ground as a coordinate point, Xiaobai continuously divided his body internally, and then used the link between the clones to transfer these divided bodies to the body of the small doppelganger on the ground through the "dimensional stomach".

It is equivalent to achieving the 'mutual replacement of the doppelganger and the subject', of course, for the slime Xiaobai, who can split the self-proliferating clone almost indefinitely, there is actually no real primary and secondary distinction between its clones, but according to the difference in the power 'share' it allocates to each clone when splitting, there will be a difference in strength between different split slimes.

The operation when it was transferred just now was said to be 'primary and secondary replacement', but in fact, it should be said that it was more appropriate to say that it was 'power transfer'.

Taking advantage of this characteristic, after it sent Jiang Yan to a safe position, it also escaped after him, leaving the giant tree to devour only the useless iron shell that had been discarded.

Because the spatial transfer is completely confined to the "dimensional stomach" inside Xiaobai's body, and all spatial fluctuations are not leaked to the outside world, this transfer method is extremely secretive, and people in the outside world cannot detect the abnormality at all.

The internal space structure of the "dimensional stomach" is controlled by Xiaobai, but after all, it is only a simple "space" and not a "world", so there are no factors such as "sky and earth" in it, because it is not in line with the outside space, and there is not even "gravity", Jiang Yan stays in it as if he is floating in a vacuum cosmic environment, but fortunately, Xiaobai often stuffs things into the "dimensional stomach", so that there is a large amount of air for living beings to breathe in this dimensional space, and factors such as air pressure and temperature are normal.

It can be roughly thought of as an experience similar to that of an astronaut on a space station.

Of course, because Xiaobai, who has devoured a large number of prey and absorbed the innate abilities of various prey itself, has actually mastered the skill program of "gravity", so if necessary, it can actually attach the 'gravity' factor to the internal space of the "dimensional stomach", and the same is true for wind, water, earth, light, and the like.

The near-omnipotent development formed after absorbing a large number of natural skills is enough for Xiaobai to manage the space within his "dimensional stomach" not much different from a small cave blessed land.

But it rarely does that when it doesn't have to, because it takes a lot of effort and is cumbersome to do.

Now Jiang Yan is directly floating in the dim space without gravity, his vision is directly linked to Xiaobai's senses, observing the situation of the outside world, and semi-assisting to control Xiaobai's body movements.

"Let's find a place in the middle of nowhere. Jiang Yan looked at the street not far away, where it took no more than ten seconds for another centaur puppet soldier to patrol by.

He was intrigued by these steel golems, and wanted to grab a few for deeper analysis and study them. Although the ability can scan them, the scanning method based on the premise of secrecy is not comprehensive, and it can only roughly detect the energy intensity and body structure stored in their bodies, and it seems that because they have magic particles in their bodies running for energy, the concentration of these magic particles is much higher than the concentration of free particles in the atmosphere, which has caused a certain amount of interference to Jiang Yan's ability scanning, causing the scanning information to stop at the shallow stage.

More important and critical information, such as the composition of the steel puppet, the detailed structure of the delicate energy transmission circuits in the body, the operating principle of the energy furnace, and the detailed structure of the weapon system, were not something that could be detected by Jiang Yan's shallow scanning, which remained secret.

This was similar to Jiang Yan's scanning of human beings, the steel golems looked like they were self-intelligent, not completely dead, and he wasn't sure if they would notice something was wrong if he deepened the scanning.

A single steel puppet is naturally nothing, and Jiang Yan can dismantle it casually, but he is afraid that he will be exposed and attract the attention of the entire puppet army. A steel puppet with a strength of 100,000 and above the second level, if it was besieged and set on fire, it would really give Jiang Yan a bit of a headache.

Xiaobai was ordered, and quietly split several ultra-small clones that maintained a transparent and stealthy state throughout the whole process, and the size was only the size of a pebble, and then it did not move on its own, and these ultra-small transparent slimes scattered and began to explore the city, and shared all the information they saw along the way to Jiang Yan through the ability link.

Through the perspectives of multiple small transparent slimes, Jiang Yan had a general impression of the city.

The streets of the city are built in a boxy and regular manner, and from time to time you can see trucks full of goods that should be used to guide the technology system passing by on the streets.

The whole city is basically made of steel and concrete, and those high-rise buildings are full of machine factories, where production lines are constantly running, and a large number of raw materials are sent into factories by trucks, and then turned into parts of uniform specifications through sophisticated automated production lines, and then transported to the next production factory, where they are further processed and then transported to the next factory for assembly......

After such a multi-layered production line, one after another brand new steel golems were born from the factory, some of them just left the factory, entered a state of standby dormancy, and then were sent to a specific warehouse to be sealed, and some of them consciously joined the army of steel golems patrolling the large underground caverns after activation.

The steel golems responsible for the production of the 'Centaur', 'Spider', and 'Falcon' are not all the factories in this underground megacity, but only occupy about one-tenth of them, and the rest are responsible for the production of other models of magic mechanical golems and accessories.

For example, Jiang Yan saw a kind of mining-type puppet soldier, the other party looked like a large pangolin, with two forearms loaded with alloy steel claws that were good for mining, and a large head with a spiral drill bit, and a large dump box for ore on the back, and two tank-like metal tracks underneath.

The biomimetic mining golems are each the size of a small truck, and they frequently travel to and from the edge of the large underground caverns outside of the city's factories, occasionally coming in and out of the dark mines on the side walls of the caverns, often coming out with chests full of raw ore.

In addition to the mining golems will enter those mines, there are also many arachnid puppet soldiers who will follow up together, and when they come out, some of the puppets occasionally have missing arms and legs, and they have traces of battle, apparently in the depths of the mines, they have encountered some demonized creatures that inhabit the ground, so they have a battle with the other party.

Of course, the final result is basically the victory of the steel golems who have an absolute numerical advantage, as can be seen from the fact that some demonic creatures that are either dead or half-dead are brought out of the mines from time to time.

In addition, there are some engineering magic puppets that are responsible for the operation of various production lines on the factory floor, their appearance looks a bit like an upright spider-man, the height is similar to the height of a human male, but the lower body has four long legs that are flexible, and the upper body is a full six mechanical arms, and the mechanical arm can be seen on a lot of wrenches, screwdrivers, bionic fingers and other structures, not only can flexibly control various factory instruments, presumably also have the ability to repair various machinery on the spot.

Through the exploration of multiple small stealth slimes sent out, Jiang Yan has not seen a single 'living person' in this city so far, not even demonized creatures (except those caught from the outside as prey). All you can see is one steel magic puppet after another, and the whole city exudes a cold mechanized style.

"Tsk...... That's a bit of a tricky thing to do. Jiang Yan felt a little headache about this, he really doubted whether there were any living people in this underground giant city.

If the city were to be controlled entirely by mechanical golems, it would be a bit tricky.

If the city is ruled by a living person, Jiang Yan's ability can find an opportunity to subdue the other party, then he can take the city for himself at a very small price.

Looking at the factories full of production lines, this steel city is obviously a huge logistics production base for military weapons, and the value is very large.

The three types of puppet soldiers, 'Centaur', 'Spider', and 'Falcon', seem to be the regular combat weapons of the Wizard Civilization, but they seem to be slightly different from those described in some historical materials collected by the Daughter Network. However, there are very few records about this in the first place, after all, it was a thousand years ago, and the magic civilization has been destroyed, so it is normal that the information in this area is not detailed.

Maybe it's the updated model? Jiang Yan didn't know much about this, but it didn't prevent him from fighting these puppet soldiers and factories.

There are more than 100,000 puppet troops, and this data is only active on the surface, and Jiang Yan also found more puppets in the warehouse in the secret, all of which add up to about 200,000.

It is rumored that during the heyday of the magic guide civilization, there were hundreds of thousands of high-level magic guide soldiers under its command, and you must know that the definition of the combat power of this 'high-level magic guide soldier' is that it is an extraordinary person who can compete one-on-one with the strength of the second-level level! That is to say, in the heyday of the magic guide civilization, there were hundreds of thousands of second-level elite combat power!

What is this concept? Converted by the rank of the elven envoy, this is equivalent to hundreds of thousands of military-level elven envoys!

Of course, this kind of mass-produced 'second-level elite' is actually relatively watery, and the combat skills mastered alone are definitely much less than those of the second-level masters who have grown up through normal cultivation. Most of the strength of high-level magic puppets should be hovering at the second level, but this terrifying number alone is enough to make the vast majority of the opposing forces despair.

You know, taking the Duragon Empire as an example, as a hegemon on the mainland, its current permanent army claims to have millions of lions, but more than seventy percent of the combat power here is only a first-level grass-roots soldier, and the second-level ones only occupy less than two percent, probably 50,000 to 100,000, and most of them are second-level beginners, and only less than one-tenth of them have reached the second-level intermediate level (second-level fourth-order or above), and the second-level high-level (seventh-order or above) are even rarer, and if you serve in the army, you can at least mix with the rank of colonel.

Comparing the military data in the records of the Demon Guiding Civilization, this is undoubtedly a very huge gap, and it is no wonder that the war against the Magical Civilization back then would require all forces to join forces to fight against it.

After Jiang Yan found out that the number of magic guide weapons in this big underground hole was so abundant, he had to say that he was tempted.

Those magic puppets that have been activated and activated, he can't move for the time being, otherwise it will definitely cause the vigilance of the magic puppet army, but those magic puppets sealed in the warehouse and in a dormant standby state should be fine, right?

Jiang Yan had an impulse now, he really wanted to try to see if he could secretly remove these dormant magic puppets...... I want to talk about "The Almighty Supreme of All Worlds" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
