Beast Taming: Invincible Breeder-Chapter 446 - 431: Orbital Strike

The premise of close combat attacks is that the arms can reach. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

The Mechanical Titan Giant Ape revved up its thrusters, speeding towards the Curse Crow, but it was already too late.

The thrusters were also affected by the time stolen, having aged significantly and no longer being as fast as before.

The Mechanical Titan Giant Ape flew to within two hundred meters of the yacht. Its machine soul couldn’t hold out, its lifespan was exhausted, and the machine soul decayed and dissipated. Without the control of the machine soul, the body fell with a thunderous crash, causing a huge splash.

Taking advantage of the moment before the Mechanical Titan Giant Ape completely fell into the sea, Li Cunxu quickly stored its body in the Celestial Pavilion Ring.

The undamaged body of the Mechanical Titan Giant Ape sparked a change in Li Cunxu’s thinking.

Li Cunxu initially planned to dismantle the Mechanical Titan Giant Ape to repair the Mechanical Great Wall.

But now his thoughts had changed.

Dismantling it like this seemed a bit wasteful.

After all, it was a mechanical pet specially crafted for the Mechanical Emperor, truly a waste to treat it as scrap.

Furthermore, the value of the Mechanical Titan Giant Ape was not fully realized.

The body of the Mechanical Titan Giant Ape contained technology of great value beyond just the Titanium Gold.

It represented the pinnacle of human technology in crafting mechanical pets.

The Mechanical Titan Giant Ape simply lost its machine soul, but its body remained intact and could be repaired.

The body of the Mechanical Titan Giant Ape had a great deal of time stolen by the Time Curse Crow and became corroded, but since it was metal, it could be reforged.

By roasting the corroded Titanium Gold in the Fire of the Sun, it could be restored to brand-new Titanium Gold.

Much like rusty iron turned new when thrown back into a furnace with some reducing agents.

By reforging the body of the Mechanical Titan Giant Ape and adding machine soul essence, a new machine soul could be born within.

In this way, Li Cunxu could acquire a living Mechanical Titan Giant Ape.

"Should I make a contract with the Mechanical Titan Giant Ape?"

"Forget it. Although the Mechanical Titan Giant Ape is good, it overlaps with the Mechanical Pupil’s role."

Another limiting factor for Li Cunxu not to make a contract with the Mechanical Titan Giant Ape was his limited financial power, as the Mechanical Pupil was a gold-eating entity, never enough for the expansion of the Mechanical Great Wall.

"Sell the revived Mechanical Titan Giant Ape to the Mechanical City?"

"The Mechanical Titan Giant Ape weighs 30 million tons; selling it to the Mechanical City for 60 million tons of Titanium Gold isn’t unreasonable."

The Mechanical City would definitely be willing to pay 60 million tons of Titanium Gold to buy it back.

Li Cunxu thought it over and dismissed the idea.

One reason is that 60 million tons of Titanium Gold is a significant number, and the Mechanical City probably couldn’t pay it all at once without spreading it over many years in installments.

He was growing too fast, and if the Mechanical City delayed, he might have already acquired better Titan Divine Gold before the payments were complete.

Will the Mechanical City delay? Most certainly.

The true controller behind the scenes—The Mechanical Emperor—wouldn’t let him easily receive all the final payments.

Another reason is that if the Mechanical City bought back the Mechanical Titan Giant Ape, they would undoubtedly give it to the Mechanical Emperor, since it was specifically designed for him.

Knowing the Mechanical Emperor was an undercover enemy and still allowing him to acquire the Mechanical Titan Giant Ape would only fortify the enemy.

"I’ll go back and ask if Grandpa Demon Lotus Eye’s revival ability can work on mechanical pets; if so, I’ll give this Mechanical Titan Giant Ape to Grandpa."

Imagining if Li Shiji’s revival ability could work on a Mechanical Titan Giant Ape was terrifying for Li Cunxu.

The Mechanical Titan Giant Ape had incredibly strong defenses. If painstakingly defeated, it could be revived with a mere Pupil Technique.

...

Seeing the Mechanical Titan Giant Ape fall, people breathed a sigh of relief, and some excited ones even leapt up in cheer.

The tragedy of an alliance genius dying by the alliance’s own mechanical pet didn’t occur.

In the parks, inside supermarkets...

In places where people had gathered.

One person’s cheer triggered a chain reaction, causing everyone around to cheer along.

"Well done, Time King."

"Time King? Who?"

"Of course, it’s the Curse Crow; its performance definitely earns the title of Time King."

"Totally agree; such a powerful Mechanical Titan Giant Ape fell to the Curse Crow’s time skills, it absolutely deserves the title ’Time King’."

"Time King, impressive."

...

The Evil God Sect Leader’s face was gloomy, like the ominous sky before a storm.

The captain stepped out onto the deck, bitterly speaking, "Sect Leader, we’ve completely botched this live hunt; even if we kill Li Cunxu in the end, it won’t intimidate the alliance citizens."

"No, it’s not entirely botched yet; there’s still a way to redeem it. If we can execute Li Cunxu quickly and decisively, we can still shock the populace," the Evil God Sect Leader mumbled with a hint of madness, "But how?"

"I’ve got it; it’s the one," the Evil God Sect Leader suddenly looked up into the sky with a sinister voice, "With its attack, Li Cunxu will surely perish."

The Evil God Sect Leader lowered his head to look at the yacht on the sea, picked up a phone, and said coldly a few words to the person on the other end.

In space, above the Divine Star, in the darkness, a king-level satellite-shaped Evil Mechanical Beast exited stealth mode, energy gathered at the tungsten rod at the satellite bottom.

Locking on to Li Cunxu’s position, it fired.

In an instant, the originally blue sky seemed torn apart by an invisible giant hand, a blinding light descended from the distant horizon as if a falling star intended to destroy everything.

And its target was the location of Li Cunxu’s yacht.

This scene startled many high-ranking alliance members to their feet.

"It’s a space-based weapon."

"When did the Evil God Sect launch a space-based weapon into the sky?"

"Hasn’t the Evil God Sect had enough of the lessons from last time’s space-based weapon release? How dare they release it again."

The informed alliance leaders couldn’t help but recall the previous space-based weapon incident.

An intermediate city, Shengdu, with a population of 12 million, reduced to ruins in an instant under the space-based weapon’s strike, 12 million people turned into gravestones with countless names barely recorded.

After that incident, the alliance exceptionally emphasized the importance of space-based weapons, striking down all Evil God Sect satellites launched into space.

...

The satellite-shaped Evil Mechanical Beast appeared in the starry sky, but before it could release a space-based weapon a second time, it was smashed by a mechanical dragon tail suddenly appearing out of the void.

This was an attack by the old president’s beast, the Beidou Mechanical Celestial Dragon.

The alliance was very wary of space-based weapons, and even the old president was significantly concerned, deploying the Beidou Mechanical Celestial Dragon to safeguard outer space security.

...

The power of a space-based weapon was apocalyptic, and Li Cunxu didn’t want to confront it directly, thinking of hiding; hiding within the Beast Taming Space would keep him safe.

But Jiang Lingyun was still outside, without hiding, she’d be doomed.

At this moment, Li Cunxu felt a slight revenge from Jiang Lingyun’s blessing of fortune.

However, a minor issue.

Li Cunxu said, "Mechanical Pupil, it’s up to you now."

The Mechanical Pupil flew up, its mechanical arms transformed into a taunting mechanical shield, blocking in front, its defensive field cloaked itself.

The space-based weapon collided with the Mechanical Pupil.
