The rest of the buildings were all 100 meters tall.
Skyscrapers that were less than 100 meters tall could only be seen outside the core area of the floating city.
Even outside the core zone, there were many hundred-meter-tall buildings. The density of these buildings was much higher than the steel cities on the surface.
That was why the resources were abundant.
To Lu Yuan and the rest, the place they wanted to go was naturally the core area.
They pushed their way through and only took an hour to reach the core area filled with 100-meter-tall buildings.
On the streets filled with 100-meter-tall buildings, a team of mechanical guards was patrolling.
This team had twelve mechanical guards, and the leader was a mechanical leader that was more than three meters tall. Other than the leader, the other team members were also close to three meters tall. They were also at the leader level, but they were low-level leaders, unlike the leader, who was a perfect-grade leader.
Furthermore, the mechanical guards were more well-equipped.
The mech guards that acted as meat shields had powerful crystal shields, while the assault-type mech guards were armed with axes or heavy swords, and the long-range mech guards were armed with spirit energy cannons.
Lu Yuan looked at these mechanical guards and was a little surprised.
“Are these the mechanical guards of the core area? A perfect level leader and 11 low-level leader. With such a team composition, I’m afraid that not many of the guilds that followed us up here can beat them, right?”
Amy put her hands on her hips, and said smugly,
“How can they be compared to us? Hurry up and go!”
She nudged Lu Yuan.
“I know, I know,”
Lu Yuan rushed forward with his heavy sword in hand.
When the team of mechanical guards saw Lu Yuan, their eyes turned red and they started to attack him.
Just as Amy had said, the mechanical guards, which could be said to be a nightmare for other teams, were just food for Lu Yuan and Amy.
Furthermore, it was a sumptuous meal.
After killing the mech guards, he received 240 bottles of the improved spirit power Geno fluid.
Other than that, there were leader-class Geno armaments and all sorts of leader-class bombs.
In total, the profit was about 600000 Grade 1 spiritual crystals.
The streets here were filled with such mechanical guards.
Not only that, but there were also skyscrapers that were a hundred meters tall, five hundred meters tall, and even a thousand meters tall.
One could imagine how rich the resources here would be.
Lu Yuan’s eyes were filled with anticipation.
“Let’s continue,”
Amy, Lin Xixi, and the others also smiled brightly and excitedly.
……
The core area of the floating city.
On the square of a thousand-meter tall building.
BOOM!
BOOM! BOOM!
The rumbling sounds came and stopped very quickly.
Lu Yuan held the steel Guardian heavy sword in his hand. In front of him was the mechanical leader whose head he had crushed.
The machine leader was still tied up by the Heaven Luo purple vine.
On the square, other than the mechanical leader, there were more than 100 mechanical guards. Ten of them were full-circle leader-level while the rest were low-level leader-level.
Even though their numbers were smaller than the Steel City’s Square, they were far stronger than the mechanical guards in the square.
After all, there were more than a hundred boss-level monsters!
Even Lu Yuan’s scalp went numb when he first faced the leader of more than a hundred monsters.
If he were to be focused on, he would easily be seriously injured.
There were too many.
Fortunately, Lu Yuan’s speed was still a little faster than these leaders.
Coupled with Amy’s support and Lin Xixi’s support, they were able to destroy all the mechanical guards in the end, even though the process was a little tortuous.
At this moment, a ball of light had already floated out of the mechanical leader’s body.
There was a blue light orb, four aqua light orbs, and eight green light orbs.
Lu Yuan was no longer interested in looking at the green Leader-level and green elite-level items. He directly picked up the blue Leader-level item.
Then, Lu Yuan’s eyes lit up and he smiled.
Mechanical Guardian armor (100% Tier 1): Commander tier equipment.
It mainly increased strength, increased defense, and slightly increased agility.
It was much stronger than the mechanical madman armor that Lu Yuan was currently wearing.
Amy walked over curiously.
“What is it?”
Lu Yuan showed her the ball of light, and Amy pouted and threw it to Lu Yuan.
After Lu Yuan put it on, his strength increased by a large margin again.
After that, they entered the 1000-meter tall building to collect resources.
……
The core area of the floating city was very small compared to the entire floating city. It only had a radius of about three kilometers.
The core area was centered on the three-thousand-meter-tall building in the center, dividing the four-thousand-meter-tall buildings in the North, South, East, and West into four blocks.
With Lu Yuan’s clearing speed, they could clear a block in four hours.
Nine hours later, Lu Yuan and his team had cleared the East and North districts.
They were currently cleaning up the Western District.
On the street, Lu Yuan killed the last leader of the machines with a casual strike. Suddenly, his body stopped and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Around his gene strands, the Evolution Cube that surrounded his gene strands suddenly trembled slightly.
Lu Yuan looked at the shaking Evolution Cube in shock.
Up until now, the Evolution Cube had only trembled twice.
Once was when he encountered the terrifying Mirage Dragon in the Misty Forest, and the other time was when he encountered the S-grade mutated object, the soul devouring bead.
This was the third shaking.
What was the reason this time?
Lu Yuan was a little confused.
Lu Yuan took two steps forward and found that the shaking was stronger.
He raised his eyebrows, narrowed his eyes, and walked in the direction where the vibration was getting stronger.
Amy, who was counting her harvest, was a little confused when she saw Lu Yuan suddenly walk forward.
“Lei Feng? What’s wrong with you?”
Lu Yuan came back to his senses and said with a smile,
“Nothing, I just feel like there’s something in this direction.”
“Something?”
Amy’s big purple eyes were filled with confusion.
“It’s just a feeling. Do you want to go over and take a look?”
Lu Yuan laughed.
Amy thought for a moment, and then nodded. “Let’s go take a look.”
Lu Yuan walked in front, changing his direction from time to time. He felt the vibrations of the Evolution Cube and searched for a position.
In Amy’s eyes, however, Lu Yuan was just walking with fate, seemingly without any purpose.
She frowned slightly but didn’t say anything. She just followed Lu Yuan curiously.
At this moment, Lu Yuan realized that the vibration was coming from a small alley.
He walked towards the alley.
Amy followed him.
After entering the alley, they walked about 50 meters further in.
At this moment, Amy and Lu Yuan both paused.
“What?”
The two of them looked at the ground deep in the alley.
In an unremarkable corner of the ground, a piece of gray-white metal fragment fell to the ground.
The metal fragment looked like ordinary metal, but it exuded a profound and strange aura.
Lu Yuan and Amy’s eyes widened.
“This is a Kasaya.”
The two of them quickly walked over.
Lu Yuan picked up the metal fragment and observed it with Amy.
They discovered that the seemingly ordinary metal fragment had traces of strange patterns.
Amy’s eyes widened, and she exclaimed, “This is an Aier Core fragment?! We’ve searched for so long in two areas and still couldn’t find it. I didn’t expect to find it here!”
As soon as they entered the core area, Lu Yuan and Amy were already consciously looking for the core fragments.
After all, this was the key for them to enter stage two in the Aier mechanical ruins.
Without the Aier core fragment, they would be at a huge disadvantage when competing with other strong people.
However, they had searched the East and North regions but could not find a single Aier core fragment.
He didn’t expect to find it in such an unremarkable alley.
Amy’s brows furrowed slightly. I heard from Lingling that the core fragment of El could appear anywhere in the core area. I didn’t expect it to appear even in such a remote place.
Then, she thought of something and looked at Lu Yuan, her eyes full of surprise.
“Lei Feng, how did you know there was a Aier core fragment here?”
Lu Yuan’s heart was filled with shock.
After finding the Aier core fragment, the Evolution Cube in his body calmed down and stopped shaking.
Clearly, the vibration of the Evolution Cube was due to the Aier core fragment.
However, what was going on with the Evolution Cube?
Why would it shake when it encountered the Aier core fragment?
His mind was filled with question marks.
