Chapter 90

The three of them arrived at the entrance of the superweapon safely. All Robert had to do was scan his big flashlight-like eyes and the entrance opened automatically.

Gu Ding and Lilliath followed behind Robert and entered the door.

The moment they stepped through the hatch, Gu Ding and Liliath could not stop their mouths from gaping. This superweapon was a spaceship that was so big that it was boundless. Just by looking at it, Gu Ding knew that it was several times bigger than the Golden Eagle.

"This superweapon is more than three hundred times the size of the Grey-faced Buzzard, which is equivalent to four Golden Eagles." Neptune informed Gu Ding and Lilliath of the results of the detection. He felt that the two of them would want to know some basic information about the superweapon. "It's called a superweapon because there are more than a hundred cannons of various grades on this spaceship. The most powerful of them all is the main cannon, which can destroy a star sector. This is not an exaggeration."

"There are also other types of cannons of various grades. There are armor-piercing cannons specially designed to deal with warships, anti-matter cannons with area-of-effect attacks, and intelligent particle cannons specially designed to lock onto a single person. Forget a Rank-10 Gene Body, even a Cosmic Nation's lord or Army marshal who are Rank-11 Gene Bodies would be severely injured. Also … "

Robert did not say a word. He just walked quietly toward the depths of the cabin.

Seeing Robert's reaction, Neptune also fell silent. As a superintelligence, he also had human emotions and could understand Robert's feelings at that time.

The two of them followed Robert to the cockpit. Looking at the luxurious cockpit, their faces were once again filled with surprise.

Robert stood in place and slowly looked at every corner of the cockpit. After a long time, he reached out and touched the armrest of the main pilot's seat. His metal fingers slid forward along the armrest, making a metallic sound. He seemed to miss this feeling.

Gu Ding and Lilliath did not say anything to disturb him. Neptune also remained silent.

"It took me thirteen years and my partners thirteen years to build the first superweapon …" Robert suddenly spoke. After another moment of silence, he walked toward the control panel.

In front of the control panel, his hands moved like the wind. After about three minutes, the screen in front of the control panel finally lit up and projected a three-dimensional image. It was a concave mold of a palm. One could vaguely see the complex lines in the mold, but the palm model was obviously from the Mechanical Tribe.

Robert took a deep breath and pressed his palm on it.

After the mold fit the palm, the three-dimensional image turned into the shape of a countdown clock.

Robert moved his finger on the 3D image and adjusted the countdown to half an hour.

"Let's go." After everything was done, Robert turned and nodded at Gu Ding and Liliath.

The three of them exited the superweapon. Robert closed the entrance and walked towards the second superweapon.

This time, Robert's operation was much faster, and it only took him less than three minutes to complete the self-destruct sequence.

"We need to leave this desert as soon as possible." Robert led the two of them back the way they came.

Less than two minutes after the three of them walked down the tunnel, they suddenly heard a loud boom and the ground beneath their feet began to shake violently. This time, the shaking of the ground was more than ten times stronger than what Gu Ding had felt on the outskirts of the battlefield. Gu Ding and Lilliath could not even stand properly.

"What happened? Have we been discovered? "Gu Ding's first reaction was to guess that the three of them had been discovered.

"We haven't been discovered yet. Sharp's attack just happened to land not far in front of us … Also, because of his knife, a part of the tunnel in front of us collapsed. We can't go back to where we started." Neptune told everyone the very bad news.

"Robert, use three excavators to dig another tunnel." Gu Ding immediately thought of a solution.

"The three excavators have been scrapped. To make it easier for you to find the materials, we only used ordinary metal, which is a single-use item. Digging ten kilometers is already the limit of what I can reach according to my calculations."

"Why don't we return to the superweapon and drive it away?" Lilliath suggested. "Can we cancel the self-destruct setting?"

"There's no way to cancel the self-destruct setting." Robert shook his head. "Also, once we drive this superweapon away, the generals of the Federal Government will definitely inform the Federal Government Headquarters immediately. Then, we'll be hunted down by powerhouses who are stronger than the ruler of a nation."

"We can't afford to bear the consequences!" Gu Ding also shook his head. "Even if the Federal Government obtains these superweapons, they would never use them under normal circumstances, much less drive them around. Also, after obtaining these superweapons, I'm afraid they'll sign a written agreement with the other forces as soon as possible, promising not to use them indiscriminately. Otherwise, the other forces will unite and protest. It's not very realistic to want to control these things in your own name. "

"It's going to explode in about twenty minutes. If we stand here, we'll die earlier than the people from the Army." Lilliath curled her lips.

"Robert, is there an escape pod on the superweapon?" Gu Ding suddenly thought of something.

"There is an escape pod, but it's used on land, water, and air. There's no way to go underground." Robert had thought of using an escape pod before, but in the current environment the three of them were in, the escape pod would not work at all.

"If we can't go underground, we'll go by air!" Gu Ding immediately had an idea. "Robert, bring us back to the superweapon."

"If we go by air, won't we be shot down by these powerhouses? Although they can't fly, "Lilliath voiced her concern. No matter how hard the escape pod is, it can't be stronger than our Grey-faced Buzzard's defense. Even a Grey-faced Buzzard can be shot down by a Rank 10 Gene Body martial arts practitioner in an instant. "

"That's why we need Neptune to calculate the angle and use the superweapon's shell to block all the powerhouses' attacks." Gu Ding grinned.

Robert immediately understood Gu Ding's idea. "Good idea, let's go back!"

Although Lilliath still did not quite understand what Gu Ding meant, seeing that Robert's reaction seemed to be feasible, she did not raise any more objections.

The three of them quickly returned to the first superweapon that had been programmed to self-destruct. After opening the entrance, the three of them entered in a single file.

Robert once again walked to the control panel and quickly operated it with both hands. Soon, the huge superweapon began its self-inspection program.

[Hull Intact]

[Spaceship Functional Intact]

[Energy Remaining 33%]

…

Robert excitedly pressed the power start button, and the spaceship's hull began to shake in an instant.

The others who were fighting on the battlefield also felt the ground begin to shake. They all looked toward the source of the shaking — the excavation pit.

To everyone's surprise, a huge superweapon slowly rose …
