Ultragene Warlord

Chapter 1594: Disaster-Grade Soulshard

The second warehouse was particularly large. The surface-level building was only part of the warehouse proper, and there was a large space underground as well.

The entire warehouse was divided into quite a few regions. Zhang Lie and the others were in the special items zone.

After consuming the superior-grade white-grub soulshard, the Pandora's Box transformed into an egg. After some time, the egg slowly cracked, revealing the brand-new superior-grade white-grub soulshard—but one that was different, more advanced: a disaster-grade white-grub soulshard.

A ring of light surrounded it as it morphed continuously, not taking on any fixed form.

Zhang Lie tested out the brand-new soulshard. The disaster-grade white-grub soulshard covered up his entire body. The members of Team Zenith scrutinized him carefully, and Sun Xiaowu said, "It doesn't look like there's much of a difference."

"Not entirely. The quality has improved from before, and it can block attacks from disaster-grade lifeforms now. What's more, although it's wrapped around me at present, if I choose to do so, I can make it fill the entire space here."

The members of Team Zenith nodded as they began stuffing their own soulshards into the Pandora's Boxes. Zhang Lie did the same with Guicang, Hanguang, and his peak-grade dragonworld soulshard. It would take a while for them to hatch.

A small, octahedron-shaped shard of counteracting fate floated up into the air, surrounded by starlight.

Suddenly, divine radiance seeped out from Fang Yi.

That shard began to resonate with the one embedded in Fang Yi's body. Both radiated light. They were blue one moment, royal purple the next, and ink black a moment later. Mysterious shades of light filled the area.

Fang Yi's soul lit up, illuminating the warehouse. The aura was expansive, dark, chaotic, and rampaging; it was grand and all-encompassing. All of it stemmed from that mysterious stone.

Fang Yi's body was attuning to the second shard of counteracting fate. It gave off what seemed like an extreme sense of willpower. It felt as though there were countless figures surrounding Fang Yi, roaring and screaming in defiance.

Fang Yi quickly attuned to the second shard after his experience with the first.

Li Feng handed Fang Yi the Pandora's Boxes that were his. Fang Yi took them and began slotting in his soulshards that needed upgrading.

The members of Team Zenith began to gather the treasures they had obtained from this zone of the warehouse. Zhang Lie said, "There's a certain zone I'm quite interested in."

"Which one?" Sun Mengmeng asked.

"The one where genetic lifeforms are stored."

"Why don't we help me find the armor I want first?" Sun Xiaowu asked.

Suddenly, a huge rumble shook the entirety of the warehouse.

"What's going on?!"

Zhang Lie figured it out quickly. "The invaders are surely doing something."

"Let's have a look in the control room, then," Sun Mengmeng suggested.

The hunters flew to the control room following their map. Indeed, Eternal Sun and the Ancient Gods' Abode were fighting within the second warehouse, forcibly seizing what treasures they found and destroying whatever they couldn't claim to ensure that their opponents wouldn't be able to leave with them. The two parties were like bandits wreaking a path of destruction through the warehouse.

Yang Ze thundered, "Those are our treasures!"

By then, the members of Team Zenith thought of everything within the second warehouse as theirs. Upon seeing Eternal Sun and Ancient Gods' Abode rampaging through the warehouse, they felt as though blood were dripping from their hearts.

Sun Xiaowu's eyes suddenly widened in recognition. "Hold on. The armor they're wearing—that isn't what Bu Wentian was going to give to me, is it?!"

Arwassa was wearing a very interesting suit of armor.

The golden armor was form-fitting and protected its body, the metal and design both highly reminiscent of Milky Way products.

Yang Ze grabbed Sun Xiaowu by the shoulder.

"Xiaowu, it looks like someone has been deflowering your armor."

"Die!" Sun Xiaowu thundered.

"They really might be about to take off with your armor."

Li Feng pointed toward the on-screen armory. All the defensive systems around the armory had been destroyed, and there were only scattered pieces of armor remaining. Arwassa had likely made off with the best suit.

However, its body didn't allow it to put on the complete suit of armor. Rather, it broke the armor up into pieces and equipped only what it could.

Arwassa was trashing an invaluable treasure; the armor wouldn't be able to exhibit its true strength any longer. All it could provide now was defense from the base metals that made it up.

Armor designed for humans was naturally ill-suited to Arwassa, which had tentacles instead of limbs.

Upon seeing the armor that should have belonged to him be torn apart and stolen, Sun Xiaowu's eyes were bright red. "I'll kill them all!"

Sun Xiaowu really was upset. He might have been mad if they had merely stolen the armor, but not only that, they had destroyed it and rendered it useless. Sun Xiaowu wouldn't be able to use it even if he managed to steal it back.

Zhang Lie clapped his hands together. "Very well. It looks like we'll have to deal with these fellows first."

"Hold on, Captain!" Yang Ze raised a hand.

Zhang Lie turned. "What's the matter?"

"Since they've barged into the warehouse, why don't we play with them for now?" Yang Ze suggested.

"What are you trying to pull?" Sun Xiaowu asked.

"Don't you want to try being a mastermind?" Yang Ze replied.

Zhang Lie shrugged, but Sun Xiaowu seemed far more dubious.

"What are you planning?"

Yang Ze understood how Sun Xiaowu was feeling. He patted Sun Xiaowu on the shoulder. "Let me ask you, friend, how it feels to have your possessions deflowered."

Sun Xiaowu growled, his eyes red. "Don't make me tie you up and rustle up a few lifeforms to have their way with you!" "Right, you're angry, aren't you? Do you think killing them and giving them a swift death would really be able to calm you down?"

"What're you trying to say?" Sun Xiaowu spat out.

Yang Ze brimmed with confidence. "Let me help you. We can make them die in despair, in pain."

Sun Xiaowu glanced at Yang Ze. Yang Ze was right. Just killing them wouldn't quell his anger.

"I want them to die horrible deaths."

"Leave it to me," Yang Ze promised, snapping his fingers and starting to input commands into the central console. The warehouse's defense system whirred to life and began to attack the intruders.

The parties from Eternal Sun and the Ancient Gods' Abode suddenly discovered that the traps and weapons seemed to have grown far more agile, and both sets of monsters were caught unawares.

It was almost as though the traps and weapons had lost their sense of basic decency.

Not a single low-level lifeform entered the warehouse; instead, there were whole swarms and packs of high-level robots surging in. Arwassa, Bugg-Shash, and Vibur's abilities were only applicable to biological lifeforms, and they would have had a far harder time if Ammutseba hadn't been able to absorb laser light.

The high-level robots took advantage of guerrilla warfare to whittle down the monsters from Eternal Sun and the Ancient Gods' Abode.

Yang Ze glanced at the screen. Once he had drained the strength of the monsters to his satisfaction, he said, "Now for something big."

"What are you planning?" Zhang Lie asked.
