Chapter 1394: The Shocking Battle (5)
January 29th, 2018
Beyond the domain, the Allied Army of the Alliance was stationed.
The Allied Army had just experienced some chaos due to the surprise attack by the Flying Automaton Beasts, and before they could fully restore order, an even greater chaos ensued.
The mechanisms within the wooden puppets, which had emerged from the giant rocks, were activated, and in an instant, the small puppets transformed into hideous Automaton Beasts.
Tens of thousands of Automaton Beasts appeared simultaneously, and as they emerged, they immediately assumed their combat forms. The fact that these creatures could transform from their puppet state indicated that they were all high-level Automaton Beasts, each with a strength value exceeding 80.
Their size also revealed their nature as war machines. As soon as they were activated, slaughter ensued, and alluring blood-red flowers bloomed on the battlefield, instantly plunging the Allied Army into complete chaos.
"Each of these Automaton Beasts is incredibly expensive. Where did Lu Hai Kong get tens of thousands of them? Could it be that he dedicated his entire nation's resources to producing these beasts?"
The generals of the Allied Army were left dumbfounded by the situation before them.
Little did they know that among these tens of thousands of Automaton Beasts, a portion was indeed manufactured by Lu Hai Kong's Woodworker Army, such as the two thousand Flying Automaton Beasts.
However, a significant number of them were obtained by Lu Hai Kong's legions through various dungeon runs and leveling points across the Three Kingdoms world, which was now under his control.
Although these Automaton Beasts were acquired through grinding, they had also undergone modifications by the Woodworker Army.
After the modifications, the attack power and destructive capabilities of these beasts were maximized, and various additional features were incorporated, making them ten times more powerful than before.
The only drawback was that they couldn't distinguish between friend and foe, which was why Lu Hai Kong deployed them first.
With tens of thousands of Automaton Beasts unleashing their full might, it took only a matter of minutes to inflict two to three hundred thousand casualties on the Allied Army.
However, the Allied Army from beyond the domain was not to be underestimated either. The Allied Army boasted a dazzling array of generals, and in terms of fame alone, Lu Hai Kong might not necessarily match them.
How could such a formidable Allied Army be hindered by a mere horde of Automaton Beasts? As the beasts wreaked havoc, the generals of the Allied Army sprang into action.
In the Three Kingdoms world ten years ago, a strength value above 80 was considered exceptional, but in this Allied Army, such high-strength individuals were commonplace.
Therefore, when the generals took action, they effortlessly dispatched the Automaton Beasts. However, defeating them was one thing; disposing of them was another matter.
These Automaton Beasts had undergone modifications, making them far more challenging to defeat.
The Woodworker Army had incorporated numerous features into these beasts, and one of the most crucial additions was the self-destruct system.
Once an Automaton Beast was defeated or realized it couldn't overpower its opponent, it would initiate self-destruction.
The origin of this self-destruct system was Lu Hai Kong's whim to introduce the concept of gunpowder to the Woodworker Army and Ironsmith Army, hoping they could create gunpowder.
However, due to the differences between worlds, they couldn't produce any gunpowder, not even the simplest explosives.
Who is Lu Hai Kong? He is the emperor of the Great Jin Empire and the supreme ruler in the Three Kingdoms world.
His original intention was to develop gunpowder to enhance the military's strength, but his idea, when implemented at the grassroots level, inevitably led to unintended consequences.
"Your Majesty has such a thought? We must fulfill it!"
Under this bureaucratic system, Lu Hai Kong's forces developed an odd contraption, a mishmash of Tao talismans, formations, and all sorts of random items.
The resulting device had effects similar to a bomb, but with far greater power. Even those with a strength value above 90 were at risk of being instantly killed if caught off guard.
The only drawback was its unpredictability. It might explode immediately upon activation, or there could be a delay, and the blast might exceed expectations or fizzle out completely.
Lu Hai Kong's face darkened when he saw the device.
Not wanting to waste resources, he ordered the Ironsmith Army and Woodworker Army to integrate it with automaton beasts, creating a self-destruct system.
Surprisingly, the results were impressive.
When a general from the Allied Army unleashed their power, tens of thousands of automaton beasts simultaneously activated their self-destruct systems.
These generals were the best of the best, and they could sense the terrifying power of the impending explosion. If the self-destruct system went off, the Allied Army would face heavy casualties, if not total annihilation.

Even Bai Qi couldn't sit idly by in this situation, so the Allied Army had to use all their resources.
Various general and commander traits were activated simultaneously.
With the Allied Army's efforts, they managed to suppress the self-destructing automaton beasts, but at a cost. They had to reveal their hidden strengths and lost nearly half a million extra-dimensional demons.
Lu Hai Kong's forces, however, had more in store for the Allied Army. Just as the Allied Army had exhausted themselves in defeating the automaton beast army, the flying automaton beasts returned, bearing a grand gift.
The Allied Army below could sense the power of the warriors on these beasts; there were at least a hundred or two hundred of them, each with a strength value over a hundred, forming a terrifying force.
But at that moment, Bai Qi wasn't concerned about the outcome of the battle.
Not only was he unbothered by the potential victory or defeat, but he was also confident in their current state, with their military aura and general traits fully unleashed.
As long as the warriors on the flying automaton beasts didn't descend, Bai Qi was confident in their safety.
Just as Bai Qi's confidence soared, a slender man from the Allied Army, who had been supporting a military aura, approached Wang Jian and struck him with a hammer, killing him instantly.
At the same moment, Han Xin, another general who had been maintaining a military aura, smirked and activated his own, transforming it into a sword that shattered Zhang Han's military aura.
This sudden turn of events left Bai Qi stunned...
