"In the short term, the outside world won’t be aware of what’s happened in the Intelligent Machinery City." "However, according to the rules of the Intelligent Mechanism Council, during its outings, the Prophet Mecha must report its log to the Intelligent Machinery City every three days to ensure its safety. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⟡𝕗𝗂𝗋𝖾⟡𝕟𝕖𝕥 The last log report was just a day ago. If the log report can’t be reviewed promptly in two days, the Prophet Mecha and the garrisoned troops across various regions might become suspicious." Lu Yan raised an eyebrow slightly; this was good news for him. He had two days to deal with the ruins of the Intelligent Machinery City and to organize the gains from this great battle, which was plenty for Lu Yan. Walking through the ruins of the Intelligent Machinery City, Lu Yan’s gaze wandered among the numerous dilapidated buildings, and he asked Davis: "How many rule-level resources does the Intelligent Machinery City still have?" Davis showed a trace of embarrassment on his face. "My lord, apart from the three newly completed Satellite-Class War Fortresses, the remaining number of rule modules is less than ten." Lu Yan asked in surprise, "Less than ten? With the enormous scale of the Intelligent Machinery City, why are rule resources so scarce?" Don’t be misled by the fact that the Intelligent Machinery City seemed vulnerable before Lu Yan; that was entirely because Lu Yan’s Divine Techniques and version update permissions completely countered this type of version force, which relied on external creations. In terms of power alone, the Intelligent Machinery City is a first-class version force, ranking in the top ten in the entire Great Destruction Realm. And due to its War Fortresses, it commands respect throughout the entire Great Destruction version, occupying more territory than most version forces. If not for Lu Yan, who is essentially a natural nemesis to the Intelligent Machinery City, it would have the confidence to counter most version forces, especially with the Satellite-Class War Fortresses being a formidable weapon against powerful figures of all major versions. Such a powerful version force should have a very abundant reserve of rule resources. "There are things you might not know, my lord." Davis put on a bitter expression. "The Intelligent Machinery City is indeed a first-class version force, occupying a vast territory, with more than five high-tier resource mines alone. But when it comes to rule resources, our Intelligent Machinery City fundamentally lacks the capability." "Rule resources come from the Outer Heaven Void, nurtured from the clashes of different worlds and often require talents at the rule level, like Nascent Souls, Demigods, Saints, and Martial Saints, to harvest them. While the Intelligent Machinery City is strong, it doesn’t have powerhouses at the rule level. The only qualified one would be the Prophet Mecha, which cannot be easily utilized. This leads to most of our rule resources coming from trades with major forces." "Because of the power of our Satellite-Class War Fortresses, major forces have tacitly blocked rule resources from the Intelligent Machinery City to prevent us from creating more Satellite-Class War Fortresses that could break the balance. Even trades between versions can only sustain the production of Satellite-Class War Fortresses and cannot store more resources." Upon hearing Davis’s explanation, Lu Yan couldn’t help feeling a bit disappointed. He originally thought that by capturing the Intelligent Machinery City, he would gain a massive amount of rule resources to fill the Supreme Divine Techniques Seed, but he didn’t expect the reserve of rule resources to be so low. Even with the addition of the three destroyed Satellite-Class War Fortresses, it would only fill a tenth of the Supreme Divine Techniques Seed, let alone help it fully mature. Thinking along these lines, Lu Yan continued to ask: "Do you know which version forces have large reserves of rule-level resources?" Hearing Lu Yan’s question, Davis looked at Lu Yan with a peculiar expression. "Forces with top-notch powerhouses usually control large reserves of rule-level resources. The Ten Directions Martial Path, the Land of the Gods, and the Seven Gods Church all have extremely rich stockpiles. But without a doubt, the All Immortals Alliance has the most abundant resource reserves." "Although the All Immortals Alliance has few in the Nascent Soul Realm, those Golden Core experts with mastery of the Earth Evil Divine Techniques already possess the ability to touch rules, and in refining Rule Fragments, they are on par with top powerhouses of other versions. In fact, because there are more Golden Core experts with mastery of Earth Evil Divine Techniques, they hold the most rule resources." Upon hearing the explanation, Lu Yan finally understood why Davis had a peculiar look. In Davis’s view, Lu Yan was the true heir and a high-level authority figure within the All Immortals Alliance. Even if he wasn’t entirely familiar with his own force, such basic matters should be quite clear. "Besides the All Immortals Alliance’s own reserves, they can also ’borrow’ some rule resources from those Martial Madmen of the Ten Directions Martial Path, making the rule resources they can mobilize even more." Davis hesitated for a moment and added a sentence, which made Lu Yan even more puzzled. Even though the Great Destruction Realm is special, rule resources here are also top treasures, so how could they be casually borrowed? Davis was full of surprise. "The All Immortals Alliance’s strength in the entire Great Destruction Realm is not considered top tier, yet it can still securely sit in the top three and has even fought against several united versions by itself. The biggest key to this lies in a Secret Technique of the All Immortals Alliance—Simultaneous Fate Alteration. A disciple of the All Immortals Alliance who masters the Simultaneous Fate Alteration Secret Technique can anchor their opponent and reduce their lifespan at the cost of their own. In the Great Destruction Realm, countless version forces have suffered from it, especially those Martial Madmen of the Ten Directions Martial Path.
