Even when facing these fully upgraded bio-guards, Snoo remained disdainful. Even though a few of them were exceptionally powerful and equipped with god-slaying weapons, to Snoo, an old-timer among the main gods, they were merely larger ants.
"Since you've bared your fangs at me, even ants should be prepared to face the wrath of a god."
With that, a scythe flew out from the dark space behind him, swiftly severing the heads of the bio-guards surrounding him.
Perhaps due to his disdain for these primitive defense mechanisms, Snoo didn't bother investigating the bio-guards' data thoroughly. His rash attack was akin to poking a hornet's nest.
Initially, these bio-guards, seeing that Snoo hadn't personally intervened, were merely surrounding him in a state of alert. Now, under attack, their defense mechanisms immediately activated.
The bio-guards at the front, whose heads had been lopped off, had their chest lights illuminate. One by one, they charged at Snoo like hungry tigers. Before he could counter-attack, they exploded when they were half a meter away from him.
Although self-destruction of this magnitude wouldn't cause any real damage to Snoo, it did leave him disheveled and appearing somewhat flustered.
Facing the bio-guards continuing to rush at him, Snoo, now annoyed, waved his hand and slammed it down on the ground.
Instantly, a dark purple ring spread outwards from Snoo, extending five meters before stopping. The bio-guards caught in the ring's radius sank downwards uncontrollably, as if treading on quicksand or a swamp. The more they struggled, the faster they sank. Even their self-destruct capabilities were unable to affect the ring.
The main difference between bio-guards and the previous mechanical guards was that while both operated according to their programming, bio-guards possessed a certain degree of combat intelligence, making them more flexible and versatile in battle.
Sensing the strange ring, against which their bio-guards were inexplicably powerless, all of them immediately retreated. Their movements were synchronized as they rapidly withdrew beyond the ring's range.
Did you think that was all?
Of course not.
This wasn't a brawl between back-alley ruffians. In modern warfare, who didn't have some form of ranged attack capability?
The retreating bio-guards immediately sprang into action. Those at close range deployed two laser cannons from their backs and raised their arms, which were equipped with two more cannons. They unleashed a barrage of fire at Snoo. The bio-guards further back were even more formidable, launching volleys of missiles from their backs, soaring into the sky, and then raining down on Snoo's surroundings like a downpour.
Among these were even god-slaying cannonballs, specifically designed to target god-level opponents like Snoo.
Was that all?
Of course not.
In addition to the mobile bio-guards, the surface of the War World was also equipped with numerous fixed laser turrets that had already been activated. With no friendly units within a five-meter radius of Snoo, they could attack with unrestrained ferocity.
Compared to the weapons equipped on the bio-guards, these fixed laser turrets fired beams of greater power and recharged faster. Sudans novel network.
Even Snoo, fighting alone against such a fierce bombardment, found it unbearable, and multiple injuries began to appear on his body.
"Enough!"
Enraged, Snoo fully unleashed his power. A miasma of dark energy began to spread, and all bio-guards and turrets that came into contact with the black mist began to melt, turning into puddles of black liquid.
As the black mist continued to spread, threatening to kill a large number of bio-guards, Bai Qi, who had been observing for a long time, decisively intervened, employing a few skillful maneuvers to contain the black mist.
"Holy Lord, what is the meaning of this?!"
Seeing Bai Qi's appearance, Snoo voluntarily retracted the black mist and questioned him with hostile eyes.
"What do you mean? That's what I should be asking you," Bai Qi retorted without mercy. "You came to my territory without a word, wantonly destroyed my bio-guards, and caused immense damage to my warships. Snoo, you've got some nerve."
"You..."
For a moment, Snoo was rendered speechless by Bai Qi's unreasonable retort. After a long pause, he continued, "Holy Lord, don't push it too far. If it weren't for your toys' insolence, why would I have acted?"
"Alright, alright," Bai Qi waved his hand, interrupting Snoo. "There's no need to dwell on pointless matters. Hurry up and tell me why you're here. My time is precious."
Bai Qi's abrupt change of topic was rather forced. His time was precious, but whose wasn't? However, Snoo had no choice but to take the opportunity to shift the conversation to the main business.
"My God Karl has completed the request you made, and has ordered me to deliver it to you immediately."
Saying that, he retrieved a palm-sized black metal cube from his dark space and handed it to Bai Qi.
After taking the cube, Bai Qi examined it from left to right and muttered, "This is the Celestial Computer, second only to the Great Clock. I'm no expert; I hope Karl isn't tricking me."
Hearing Bai Qi's words, Snoo replied indignantly, "My God Karl is the greatest scholar in the known universe and has never stooped to deception."
He then explained to Bai Qi with the look one would give a country bumpkin, "This is the 'Little Clock' that my God Karl created for you. Its computational power even surpasses that of the Celestial Computer on the demon queen Morgana's Devil Number One. It possesses extremely excellent processing capabilities. Its current form is simply because it hasn't been activated yet."
"Good, good, good, I understand. Now tell me how to use this thing."
"The specific instructions for its use have been stored within the Little Clock by my God Karl. It will activate as soon as energy is injected into it. Once activated, the specific usage methods will be transmitted to your dark plane."
Bai Qi was about to say something more, but before he could, Snoo, as if guessing his thoughts, preempted him and said, "The energy of the three stars you requested is also entirely contained within the Little Clock. The Little Clock requires a large amount of energy to operate. Of course, if you wish to extract the stellar energy from it, that's also possible. However, doing so will cause the Little Clock to enter a dormant state due to lack of power."
After explaining everything about Karl's affairs, Snoo didn't want to linger in this unfortunate place for another second. He turned and walked into a wormhole, leaving.
Bai Qi looked at the Little Clock in his hand and, without further thought, quickly stored it in his spatial backpack.
Although the War World was now equipped with a Celestial Computer with the help of Liang Bing, both technologically and in terms of computational power, the Celestial Computer installed on the War World was far inferior to the Little Clock in Bai Qi's hands.
Moreover, the Celestial Computer on the War World was publicly displayed. Appropriately providing them with some benefits would solidify his position and power within the Bright Council. The Little Clock, on the other hand, was for Bai Qi's personal use; one public, one hidden.
