The Undying Mecha Emperor

Chapter 185 Combining Cores

The major military base we destroyed was extremely delicious.

Yes, for me it was like going to a completely brand new country and being served meals like a VVIP.

The base was probably a supply depot for many minor bases and a regiment or so Horse Gavarel Elites (which was sadly not on site).

It contained a mind blowing amount of machinery and armament which Bruce Pang and I had very efficiently destroyed.

I was able to easily break them all down and absorb them like a ravenous wolf.

New biomech designs and even curiously advanced technology started to appear in my mind. I packed them all up without hesitation and sent them to the Demoness.

All, except two crucial bits of information and technology that pointed to the existence of the Darkblood Energy, of course.

The first technology which I withheld from the Demoness was a tiny device found in their factory which was able to channel Darkblood Energy in very limited amounts into their biomech raw material make up.

It was a highly advanced technology catering to the manipulation of Darkblood Energy which was definitely beyond the ability of the Horse Gavarels to create.

And that tech relates to the information which I withheld from the Demoness.

There was no apparent purpose for the Darkblood Energy which the Biomechs contained.

And that meant only one thing.

Whoever was working behind the scenes, knew about the power of Devour, and was acting to resist it.

"If they know about the true power of devour, then they would probably be searching high and low for it. They would have infiltrated countless organizations through third party organizations and they would be listening for clues about its existence." I thought to myself as I analyzed the situation.

"That means the show I put up during the Grand Melee, even though it could be explained by the existence of other tech, would definitely serve as a clue for whoever was looking specifically for Devour."

My heart grew cold and my expression turned rather grim when I realized that point.

My cover could very well be blown already.

And if that's the case, the first target of the Horse Gavarels and the other Ocean Civilisations would be… The Chinese Federation.

And once they get their hands on Devour, then it would be the rest of the world.

The squabble between the Americans, Europeans, Chinese and Russians was nothing more than kids fighting over crumbs.

There was an alien mind that was probably eyeing the entire world as its prize, and that alien mind had been working very quietly behind the scenes for a very long time.

The civilisations of the Oceans had been prepped and were about to strike.

And when they do, humanity would be taken by complete surprise.

The only question for me was…

"Do I stand and fight? As the owner of Devour, I would be sitting on the hot seat. Or run and try to survive?" I thought seriously.

But deep in my heart, I already knew the answer.

There was no way I was leaving Emma and the others to die.

I took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled.

And then I sent the information to the Demoness.

The Demoness was an excellent reader of people. She instinctively knew how all the different types of people think and what their actions meant.

As soon as she saw the delayed information she received from me, she knew what had gone through my mind mere seconds before.

Her eyes flicked towards me for a few brief seconds as she re-evaluated me and took into consideration what my decision meant for the fate of the Federation in light of the crushing new information she just received.

She nodded once in acknowledgement, and then continued to work and digest the information and blueprints I sent over with her team.

"Ancestor, was that a nod of approval from the Demoness I just saw?" Bruce Pang's voice rang out in a whisper in our cabin. "I can't see clearly from here, I must be seeing things. Maybe my head is feeling faint from the exertion of energy earlier. It's impossible for the Demoness to approve of anything."

"It was definitely a nod of approval. For what though, I have no idea. It must be for something really precious. Maybe the brat found a map that leads to an undersea gold mine. No, she has more than enough gold from the Wang family. Maybe it was a map to an undersea diamond mine." The Ancestor whispered loudly back to Bruce Pang.

The microphone in my cockpit was, of course, working perfectly.

The Demoness heard everything clearly.

"A diamond mine? That sounds really precious. And useless. I don't think the Demoness would be in the mood for diamonds. Maybe it was a map to an unguarded mecha storage containing a thousand white mechas and a couple of gold mechas." Bruce Pang whispered loudly and thoughtfully.

"A couple of gold mechas to earn my nod of approval? What do you take me for, a generous bitch nodding at every little passing cat on the street? It is for confirming the existence of another experimental mecha core… That… and the alien that is actively manipulating the Horse Gavarels and other deep ocean races." The Demoness said sweetly to the two dumbass blokes.

"Justin confirmed the existence of another Devour?" Bruce Pang snapped at the Demoness seriously.

"No, not Devour. He just sent over a device that could manipulate that experimental core's energy, and it had no devouring properties. However, if I am not reading its energy signatures wrongly… It is vastly similar to Devour's mecha manifestation signatures, and at vastly higher amounts." The Demoness said heavily.

I was stunned by her words, of course. She had analyzed my red energy signature to such an extent, and was able to use it to find a similarity with the second experimental mecha core?

"And manifestation energy signatures? What the hell does that mean? The second experimental mecha core can manifest things as well, and at much higher numbers? Isn't that…"

"Cloning." The Ancestor said with great excitement.

"If we are able to combine Devour and Cloning…" Bruce Pang said thoughtfully and equally excitedly.
