Chapter 989: Chapter 486: Be a Human!

Beyond that, there was the Tech Explosion Attribute, the Energetic Character Attribute, and the Legendary Enhancement Card. Seeing so many resources, No. 18, still at the Semi-Legend level, started breathing rapidly, her fists clenched tightly, and beams of light shooting from her pupils.

"Go research," said Lu Ran. "Try to come up with some results... before the Secret Realm ends."

Lu Ran thought of something and said to No. 18, "If you can produce results before the end of the Secret Realm, we can pull off something big."

"If you wait until we’re back and spend a few years researching, the loss will be huge." Lu Ran gazed eagerly toward the direction of the Star Moon Faction.

After all, this was the last chance to fleece the sheep.

"I’ll do my best, master, I’ll do my best!"

"Then, I’ll get started." Not wanting to waste time, No. 18 didn’t want to talk more with Lu Ran. She dove into the Mechanical Space and first used the Energetic Character and Tech Explosion Attributes to undergo three phases of evolution for herself.

The Energetic Character Attribute, in particular, would ensure No. 18’s endurance.

The Tech Explosion Attribute, coupled with the Lucky Flower Lu Ran had plucked from Liu Hua, could increase the probability of No. 18 rapidly producing top results.

Thus, No. 18 alone undertook the research of the Mechanical Main God. Originally, Dark Crow intended to help No. 18, but fearing that Crow’s mouth might bring bad luck and taint her path to becoming a Main God, No. 18 shooed away Dark Crow.

After No. 18 began researching the design blueprints of the Mechanical Main God, Lu Ran was not idle; he aimed his sights at the Elemental Gods sealed within the Breakthrough Secret Realm.

A god eaten in three parts, for three times the benefit.

"If No. 18 can replace the Mechanical Main God before the Secret Realm ends, then we can certainly attempt to conquer the Lord of Light and Darkness."

"If No. 18 can’t replace the Mechanical Main God, then whether it’s the Lord of Light and Darkness or the Chaos Dragon God, it would all be wasted. Even though Mr. Husky and the others are very strong, they are still a level behind and it’s not very promising."

Lu Ran started to pray, first entering the Void Royal Court and asking the Void Mantis to summon the Pine God, planning to start a new round of hunting the Elemental Gods.

...

Time slowly passed.

Yun Bao embarked on the third round of devouring gods, while Lu Ran, using the Time Acceleration Beast Training Technique the entire time, enhanced No. 18’s research efficiency and her understanding through Soul Reinforcement.

In an effort to accelerate the research, Lu Ran even gave No. 18 the only Legendary Enhancement Card he had, combined with three phases of evolution; No. 18 had now become a research entity of a Lower Legend Species.

Moreover, unlike the circumstances when the Star-Moon Republic created the Mechanical Main God, No. 18 had an advantage—that being, through the Heart of Machinery, she had analyzed the exterrestrial civilization’s Super Battleship. After analyzing the Super Battleship, she discovered a crucial piece of information.

It wasn’t that the battleship was particularly impressive; it was just mass-produced.

But... it was definitely mass-produced by a Mechanical Main God of another civilization.

"There might also be a Mechanical Main God within that Universe Overlord’s legion!"

Therefore, with reference to other Mechanical Main Gods’ research approaches, No. 18 profited substantially.

At the same time.

Within the Star-Moon Republic, as time elapsed, the bewitching power of Dark Crow began to dissipate from Shen Mie.

Free from the evil thoughts and secluded within the Republic awaiting for Lu Ran to fulfill his promise, Shen Mie suddenly began to sweat profusely.

"What is this..."

"What’s happening to me?"

Shen Mie’s heartbeat accelerated, his pupils filled with panic, as he replayed all his exchanges with Lu Ran in his mind.

This replay made Shen Mie feel as if he had fallen into an icy cavern, realizing he had done something incredibly foolish.

"Unknowingly, my soul was influenced by the other party’s power."

"It’s similar to the bewitching power of the Evil God Sovereign from the Beast Training Era."

"Dreadful!!!"

Shen Mie stood up and immediately went to the Starry Sky, seeking Lu Ran’s figure. However, by then, Lu Ran was nowhere to be found.

He had a bad feeling, sensing that he might have created an enemy for the Republic more terrifying than those three aliens.

Now, looking back, he spotted many flaws in Lu Ran’s persuasive words, but it was already too late to change anything.

"I must find him!" Realizing he was no match for Lu Ran, Shen Mie nonetheless began to frantically search for him.

Thus, with less than a day left until the end of the Breakthrough Secret Realm.

Shen Mie was anxious.

Lu Ran was also anxious.

Due to the Tech Explosion Attribute, plus the assistance of the Lucky Flower, No. 18 had realized a rapid improvement in research capability within this short month.

Research entities rely on research to level up, and there was no doubt that researching the Mechanical Main God was the project with the most experience points.

During this time, with the aid of various Legendary Machinery materials collected by the Republic over a thousand years, No. 18 had fully armed herself through evolution and reached the status of an Upper Legend Species quite quickly.

However, whether Lower Legend or Upper Legend, they were merely Legend Species; the difference isn’t too great compared to going from Lower to Higher extraordinary. The real difficulty was the final step—fusing the Energy Stone picked up by the Republic.

It was an Energy Crystal, whose origins the Star-Moon Republic couldn’t determine. Its energy was incredibly stable yet catastrophically powerful. The Republic deduced that if the energy within the crystal were to explode directly, it could instantly destroy a Main God Level life.

Nevertheless, such a powerful one-time use of the Energy Crystal was too wasteful a Resource.
