Five Frozen Centuries

Chapter 221: The Battle of Scientists

This was a dead end. If one wanted to destroy the mini black hole, one had to fly. However, under these rules, no one could fly. By the time they came into contact with the black hole, the black hole would probably have grown to the point that it could devour everything. Then, everyone would be unable to escape death!

Zero already had victory in his hands, but he still planned to throw down the last straw that would break the camel’s back. He shouted, “Rule: Gravity!”

Before he could finish his sentence, the short-haired girl appeared on his back and stabbed Zero’s spine with her dagger.

At that moment, Wei Huo used his assassin’s footwork. In the blink of an eye, he appeared under Zero’s feet and slashed with his broken bronze sword.

The broken bronze sword was a weapon at the imposing aura level. It had an indomitable aura, and it was the strongest weapon he had at the moment. When he slashed with it, there was almost nothing that could not be destroyed by his indomitable aura.

However, the broken bronze sword did not succeed today because it was facing Legendary Mithril Skin!

Zero’s body was made of Mithril. He was both a Legendary robot and a Legendary weapon. His outer skin was very hard, and weapons below the Legendary level could not hurt him at all.

The short-haired girl’s dagger failed to hit him. It shattered layer by layer, but for some reason, a short sword slipped out of the girl’s sleeve.

The moment the short sword appeared, the world changed color.

The sword emitted a terrifying murderous aura. The young lady held the sword and thrust it forward like a comet attacking the moon. It pierced Zero’s back and entered his body. Zero was stunned.

Wei Huo took advantage of this rare opportunity, took out his Cold Light Sword, and leaped up. Although he could not fly, he used his powerful jumping ability to jump in front of Zero’s chest. At the same time, he handed over his Cold Light Sword.

At that moment, Wei Huo’s mind was blank. He had forgotten everything and entered a mysterious realm.

This was an extremely stunning sword. When the sword was unsheathed, it was like a meteor falling to the ground. An endless aura of nirvanic extermination shrouded the sword, and the blurry mark on the sword suddenly became clear. The mark was written in one stroke and it looked like several different Chinese characters that resembled the symbol for ‘lightning’, but the strokes were rounder than those of the ‘lightning’ symbol. Only by looking closely could one realize that it formed the Chinese character for ‘sword’. The strokes were connected from front to back as though they were one.

As soon as the mark appeared, the sword was upgraded to a Rare-ranked weapon. It was also at the peak of the Rare rank. There was a murderous aura on the sword. In addition to Wei Huo’s ethereal state, an endless aura of nirvanic extermination shrouded the sword. The tip of the sword was polished with a little gold. Its penetrative power was also extremely strong.

At that moment, the Killer Heart Sutra automatically circulated in Wei Huo’s mind. However, every word of the Killer Heart Sutra was like a dragonfly touching the water. Although ripples appeared on the water surface, they disappeared very quickly.

That was why the sutra was flowing in Wei Huo’s heart. However, Wei Huo’s mind was still as calm as water. At that moment, Wei Huo handed the Cold Light Sword over.

He did not use any strength. It was as if he was handing over an insignificant item. His hand was very light, but the sword pierced Zero’s Mithril Skin as easily as if it was tofu. Then, an endless aura of nirvanic extermination surged into the wound. Zero’s body started trembling.

Wei Huo’s realm had already reached the middle stage of the Legendary stage, but he could not improve his strength due to his lack of spirit. At that moment, he was given a good opportunity. The Nirvana Qi had the ability to stimulate one’s spirit and destroy one’s body. It could replenish Wei Huo’s spirit after devouring someone else’s spirit, thus allowing Wei Huo’s spirit to grow.

However, this was not the orthodox method of Refining Qi into God. A spirit obtained this way was not pure. Even if one temporarily absorbed it, one would have to make a lot of effort to purify it. One might even be affected by the foul spirit and drop to the Legendary stage.

The fact that Wei Huo and the short-haired girl had successfully injured Zero made him furious. He clenched his fists and hammered his chest before shouting, “Rule: Energy-Matter Conversion!”

The moment Zero finished his sentence, the machinery attached to his body exploded. The powerful force sent Wei Huo and the short-haired girl flying. The explosion triggered another chain explosion. The surrounding soil flipped over, and countless buildings collapsed due to the explosion.

Then, Zero pointed at the mini black hole. “Rule: Black Hole Death!”

Soon, the mini black hole turned into an extremely dazzling ball of light. Then, countless light, air, and iron objects were spat out by the mini black hole.

This was an even more terrifying attack. The speed of the objects spat out accelerated to their limits. Such extreme speed produced terrifying kinetic energy. If one was hit by these materials, one would either die or get crippled.

Zero was too strong. He turned knowledge into power and caught these few illiterates off guard.

Wei Huo cursed under his breath. It was all because he was uncultured. If he had been another scientist, it would have been easier to deal with Zero.

Besides, any occupation would become extremely powerful as long as the word ‘Battle’ was added before it. For example, Battle Mage, Battle Priest, Battle Archer, Battle Gardener, Battle Architect, Battle Cleaner, and so on.

Wei Huo was sent flying by the huge force. He immediately used Thunder Change and imitated Zero’s operating method to create an electric magnet.

“Lightning!” Wei Huo shouted as well. A pillar of lightning several meters in diameter shot out of the energy tower in the distance and hit Wei Huo’s body. The lightning dragon coiled around his body.

Then, Wei Huo took out the mechanical core. This mechanical core was a miniature, so it was about two meters in diameter. The mechanical core floated in front of Wei Huo. He then shouted, “Magnetism, come!”

The lightning dragon roared continuously. In the end, the dragon’s head and tail formed a circuit. This was a necessary condition for electromagnetic life. If the circuit was conducting, a magnetic field would be produced around it and the magnetism could absorb iron.

“Iron, come!”

Wei Huo shouted again. Countless iron pieces and iron plates flew over and turned into materials that entered the mechanical core. Wei Huo then started to power the mechanical core. He made blueprints while providing electricity.

In an instant, countless skeletons appeared outside the mechanical core. The speed at which the mechanical core manufactured things was very fast. It used nanomachine manufacturing technology. It first manufactured nanomachines, and then the nanomachines automatically connected to form the technological equipment of the blueprint.

In just 10 seconds, a huge steel robot appeared in front of everyone. Wei Huo and the mechanical core were wrapped around the steel robot.

The golden armor complained. “This is a f*cking war between scientists.”

It could see an extremely mysterious scientific combat method. However, science looked like a fantasy after reaching a certain level. Electricity induced magnetism, and magnetism induced electricity. If one did not know the principles behind these things, one would naturally think that it was fantasy.

The giant steel robot under Wei Huo’s control charged toward Zero. Zero had also used electromagnetic induction to attract many machines and make them stick to his body. He had even transformed them into guns.

This was a battle between two scientists, but it looked more like two Transformers were fighting. The destructive power they produced was shocking. In a few minutes, they destroyed a quarter of the city.

They were fighting around the energy tower. From time to time, they would absorb electricity. Then, they would use the electromagnetic magnet to absorb mechanical materials.

The golden armor watched the battle from the side. Moments later, it came to a realization. Wei Huo is consuming the power of the enemy’s broken Rule weapon!
