How bad can it be that even this lich would feel bad about it? Someone is in constant self-doubt.
It's just that the time traveler who has always fought alone and has never fought a few battles may not have thought that in Fen's eyes, the threat of the robot group is more serious than he imagined. The benchmark for comparison of this former Demon King is of course the dark army she once commanded, which was enough to kill gods in its heyday.
Although the Dark Legion claimed to be able to kill gods in the past, they were qualified to become cannon fodder in the battle between gods, one in ten thousand. And among the cannon fodder who are qualified to play, there are only a handful of people who can threaten the gods. Although the number is rare, this power is enough to be used against the smaller number of gods. As for the problem of too much sacrifice... the Lich at that time didn't care.
But if you want to let the complete dark army fight against the robot in front of you. Before Snake King Odessa underwent transformation, Fen's estimated winning rate was five to five waves, if one million beat ten thousand. After the giant floating ship appeared in front of us, there was basically no chance of winning...
With just that wave of volleys, Fen didn't think there would be anything left after his army of darkness had eaten them up. And even if the power of the main gun hits the gods, those arrogant beings will not be able to escape unscathed. It can be said that these more than 10,000 robots combined with that giant ship have the strength to surpass the Dark Legion. Even if you add the old self, I'm afraid there won't be any change.
And there is another important point. Maybe someone didn't realize it, but Fenke remembered clearly what grade of materials the robots used. That is a magic material produced exclusively on the earth elemental plane! It can be said that robots are born with magic resistance. With simple processing, the degree of resistance to magic can be doubled.
Such an opponent can be said to be the natural enemy of magical creatures and a disaster for magicians. The most terrifying thing is that the group of robots in front of them are far from the full potential of this group.
Just imagine what this group of people, including that man, have been working hard on during this time. They are working hard to transform all creatures in this elemental plane into robots.
However, compared to the entire world, the number of robots in front of him is only a drop in the bucket, but Fen believes that it should be less than one thousandth, or even one ten thousandth. If the remaining elemental creatures were transformed into pocket-level robots, they would be a strength that should not be underestimated. Not to mention the possibility of a few beings transformed from elemental lords into battleship-level beings like Odessa.
As long as you can master this power, not to mention conquering the Lost Land again, it is not impossible to clear the four major planes and the Lost Land Abyss in one go. The demon king's integrity is lower than that of the gods. His name as the demon king is proof that the real demons are so suppressed that they dare not speak out.
Although what happened today was caused by her, she had no idea beforehand to what extent it would be possible. For her, the most troublesome plan is to take action personally and beat up all those who disobey. When she first arrived at the Gemstone Pit, she wanted to deal with the lord of the Gemstone Pit like this, but she was dragged away by a coward first.
Looking back now, I should have taken action at the beginning, and things like this wouldn't have happened...
Fen looked at the man beside her. Seeing that his frowning and troubled expression didn't last long, the tangled brows loosened. He seemed to have figured it out or was relieved, looking relaxed and at ease. Based on her knowledge of this man, Fen didn't think that his worries would be the same as hers, so he asked curiously: "What were you thinking about just now?"
"I'm worried whether something terrible has been released."
"Oh, it's rare that you have self-awareness."
"But then I felt that there was no need to think so much, because there was nothing to worry about in the first place." Lin said easily.
"How to say?"
"Because the plunder needs of robots have limits. When it reaches a certain level, simple material plunder cannot bring benefits to the entire group. And for individual robots, this point is even more obvious. They no longer You need to plunder rare materials and constantly purify the composition of your body just like in the past."
"Are the changes brought about by alloy materials?" Fen was keenly aware of the key point in all this.
"Yes, alloys, to be more precise, materials science. By using existing materials, using different formulas and different processes, we can achieve unique effects, which can even surpass those of pure materials. So. Robots are no longer like the elemental creatures in the past who plundered a hundred scattered coins just to pick out one gold coin among them."
"Indeed, their need for plunder only existed at the beginning." Fen pointed out the facts accurately.
"That's right. Although the materials that make up their bodies can be changed, to improve their strength, their direction is no longer to find better materials to replace the original ones; rather, they are pursuing higher knowledge and constantly revising it in practice. Knowledge There is no need to rob from the outside. Maybe they will choose to fight for the sake of practice, but plundering and fighting will no longer be their focus and purpose, it is just a means."
"The situation you mentioned is just an individual situation. Have you considered the situation of the entire robot race? New robots need more materials than they originally did." Fen said.
"There is no need to worry about this. What determines the upper limit of their strength is the output power of the reactor achieved by the original power. The accumulation of this part is just like a magician accumulating power through meditation. There is nothing overnight. A rare method. Therefore, the needs of each robot in a short period of time are limited. Looking at the entire group, elemental creatures do not have the ability to expand the group through reproduction like humans. They just keep repeating Facing death, returning to the spirit of Mother Earth, becoming the most basic elemental spirit, acquiring a consciousness that can be called wisdom through continuous accumulation, and then finding a shell to protect itself. This is an elemental creature. Then it grows, and on a certain day Death comes again.”
"What you want to say is that the total amount of the soul pool has not changed."
"Although I'm not very clear about the strict definition of what you call 'soul pool', if that's almost the literal meaning, then I think you're right. And this is why I don't worry so much anymore. The big pool is The total amount is not easy to increase, which means that elemental creatures cannot reproduce virally like humans. Since the total amount remains unchanged, it means that their overall needs are also limited, and there will always be a day when they are satisfied."
"Then what were you worried about?" Fen asked, remembering someone's expression before.
"Isn't this something I figured out later? At first, I was afraid that they would be like the Zerg, relying on plunder to grow and evolve. Later, I thought about it, and they actually took a different path. It's impossible to use the Zerg's gameplay. , the violent soldiers pushed it flatly. In this case, there is nothing to worry about. "
After someone finished speaking, a thought suddenly emerged and he said thoughtfully: "Maybe this is why they are willing to sacrifice themselves to achieve Odessa. Because they have realized the limits that each individual will encounter. , so we are looking for ways to improve more comprehensively.”
What someone did not say is that if this idea is true, then the connection between the elemental creature group, that is, the importance of the spirit of the Earth Mother, is greater than what he knows. Countless consciousnesses aggregate into collective consciousness, which in turn affects individual consciousnesses.
Just thinking about it, Fen suddenly asked: "What are Zerg?"
