Lu Yan glanced over the ten Mechanical Senators in the Exile Space, his mind already clear.
The Swing of Annihilation activated, and once the scale of dimensional oscillation reached a certain point, destruction became irreversible.
Lu Yan did not believe that the rulers of the Intelligent Machinery City would truly be willing to perish together with him.
Sure enough, after some searching, Lu Yan finally discovered a space anchor point in the ruins of the core of the Intelligent Machinery City.
Exile the space beyond the Version Fragments, and wait for the right moment to return through the space anchor point, thus avoiding the destruction caused by dimensional oscillation.
However, the Mechanical Senators evidently did not expect that Lu Yan could forcibly suppress this time and space using the Human Emperor Banner shortly after the dimensional oscillation began, attempting to quell the chaos before the destruction arrived.
Trapped within the Exile Space, the Mechanical Senators didn't even have the chance to escape.
"You have two choices."
Lu Yan's leisurely voice echoed again.
"Submit, or be destroyed!"
Even though the fear in their hearts had reached its peak, after Lu Yan presented the two choices, a Mechanical Senator still loudly refuted:
"The Intelligent Mechanism Race will never be enslaved!"
As soon as the words fell, an index finger pierced the Exile Space and nonchalantly touched that Mechanical Senator.
If it weren't for the assistance of the Mechanical Nest for transformation, the Intelligent Mechanism Race would have almost no combat power to speak of, even the strength of a Mechanical Senator would be around Foundation Establishment.
The finger landed, and the broken spatial rift began to spread towards the Mechanical Senator, who was a fusion of flesh and mechanics.
The spatial rift sliced him into countless pieces, and he was devoured by the space before his consciousness was even aware of it.
Within the Exile Space, only nine Mechanical Senators remained.
The words that many Mechanical Senators tried to say were once again caught in their throats; after a brief moment of silence, another defiant Mechanical Senator loudly spoke up:
"Even if you occupy the core domain, it's impossible to completely annihilate Intelligent Machinery City!"
The next second, the index finger slowly pointed out, and the shattered space devoured him once more.
"Flesh is weak, only mechanical ascension is eternal!"
The threat of death did not truly overwhelm these Mechanical Senators. To become a Mechanical Senator governing the entire Intelligent Machinery City, even if not fully modified for mechanical ascension, most of these Mechanical Senators had strong wills.
With the continuous shouts of defiance, one by one, the Mechanical Senators were buried by the broken space, rendering the once-complete Exile Space shattered and devastated.
Finally, as the ninth Mechanical Senator was eradicated, Lu Yan's gaze shifted to the last remaining Mechanical Senator.
Most of his body had already undergone mechanical transformation, leaving only a human brain soaked in nutrient solution. The most update n0vels are published on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✦𝘧𝙞𝙧𝙚✦𝕟𝕖𝕥
Cyborg Brain modification is one of the most special modifications in the Intelligent Mechanism version.
Sages of the Intelligent Mechanism version believed that the brain is the key to nurturing the soul, and Cyborg Brain modification preserved the brain, retaining most of the seven emotions and six desires, to nurture a stronger soul before completing the final key mechanical ascension.
However, it was precisely because of the brain's preservation that the Cyborg Brain Senator could feel the fear at this moment even more deeply.
Other Mechanical Senators, emotionally indifferent due to mechanical modification, could face death directly, but he couldn't accept such a future.
Just a day ago, he was still one of the thirteen senators ruling over the entire Intelligent Machinery City, but in just one short day, he walked towards destruction, something he couldn't accept.
Soaked in nutrient solution, the Cyborg Brain trembled constantly, and the Mechanical Senator's face showed a look of struggle.
Lu Yan didn't continue to press either, only quietly watching him.
After a long time, the Cyborg Brain controlled his mechanized body, slowly knelt down, and said:
As the words fell, Lu Yan's eyes revealed an approving look.
Five fingers spread open, encompassing the Exile Space in his palm, Lu Yan used the space anchor point as a medium to bring it back into the Version Fragments.
On the ruins of the empty ground, the disappeared roundtable hall reappeared, with spatial rifts slicing the entire hall into fragmented pieces.
Inside the hall, the Cyborg Brain Senator slowly stood up, and the auxiliary intellect brain of his mechanical body began to search for the relevant emotion modules, then squeezed out an appropriately servile expression on that mechanical face.
"The little one is named Davis, and being able to come under the lord's command today is truly my fortune!"
Lu Yan cast a strange glance at the swiftly changing Davis, then looked over at the Yin Soldiers and Ghost General searching through the ruins of the Intelligent Machinery City.
Although most of the Intelligent Machinery City was destroyed, as the core force of the Version, it still retained quite a few precious resources; clearing them out completely would likely take considerable time.
It's important to know that outside of the Version Fragments, the Intelligent Machinery City still retains a very powerful army, along with a Prophet Mecha equipped with the Causality Coordination Module.
Lu Yan's Underworld army was largely damaged; if they were cornered by the army of the Intelligent Machinery City within the Version Fragments, it would undoubtedly be dangerous.
Thinking of this, Lu Yan asked Davis:
"Has the news of the fall of the Intelligent Machinery City been relayed to the outside world?"
Davis cautiously replied:
"The lord's sudden entry into the core domain to attack the Intelligent Machinery City initially left the Mechanical Senators believe that the lord couldn't succeed, so they didn't communicate the news outside.
Later, when the lord disturbed the core rule to abolish the Forbidden Mechanical Creation, without the Laplace Demon Omniscience Calculation Center to assist, the Intelligent Machinery City has been unable to relay the news effectively.
