Ancient Mutated Beasts!

As expected, the Current Plunderable Energy Level had already reached B-grade.

However, the duration had increased by 5 seconds.

However, it was not a big problem. After all, although there was an additional five seconds more, the energy cores he had obtained had increased by a huge amount.

If the energy cores were compared to the currencies of various countries, and the C-grade energy core represented Choebon, then, the B-grade energy core would be the Big Beauty Country's currency. The difference in the value of the two was not small.

Moreover, the B-grade energy cores were just enough for Lin Chen's daily use.

After all, his mecha army mostly used these B-grade energy cores.

Although he had saved a lot previously, he did not expect his army to use energy like a prehistoric beast.

The energy consumption was simply too fast!

In particular, his top-notch mechas were like a bottomless pit. He had to use at least a hundred B-grade energy cores every day to barely maintain them.

If these B-grade energy cores were converted, it would be thousands of C-grade energy cores.

In other words, even after absorbing so many C-grade energy cores, he could barely maintain his energy expenditure for a day!

Even though Lin Chen's team was large, he could not allow this to happen!

Therefore, the Energy Plunder skill was especially important.

After [Energy Plunder] had just been upgraded to level two, Lin Chen did not stop for a moment and started the encirclement again.

This time, he no longer lingered around the periphery. Instead, he changed his direction and advanced towards the center of the forest.

The upgraded [Energy Plunder] could be said to be truly invincible.

As most of those in the central area of the forest were B-grade and below, Lin Chen could definitely absorb the energy core of a cyber beast every 15 seconds.

He could be considered to be sitting back and reaping the benefits.

Moreover, on this basis, he did not idle. While activating his passive ability, he also used his main body to attack the cyber beasts in the surroundings.

With this two-pronged approach, the efficiency would naturally double.

In just ten minutes, he had collected nearly 140 B-grade energy cores.

This was within Lin Chen's expectations.

However, the only flaw was that even though he had farmed more than 100 B-grade energy cores, [Energy Plunder] was less than 1% charged.

Excluding the B-grade cyber beasts that he had taken the initiative to kill, he had obtained at least seventy to eighty energy cores using the [Energy Plunder].

However, even so, it was still less than 1%!

If 1% was 100 B-grade energy cores, wouldn't it take 10,000 B-grade energy cores to reach 100%?

This figure was equivalent to an ordinary person's salary for two months, if it was converted to Huaxia dollars.

Not to mention these B-grade energy cores!

Even if he searched every corner of a city, there might not be so many B-grade energy cores.

Fortunately, the place where Lin Chen was at was the area with the densest number of cyber beasts in the entire eastern region.

There were at least twenty to thirty thousand B-grade cyber beasts here.

It was only a matter of time before he could collect 10,000 of them.

What he lacked the most now was time!

Even if he obtained four cores per minute, it would be 240 cores per hour.

It would take at least 40 hours to use the skill to plunder 10,000 B-grade energy cores.

This was only possible if he did not eat or drink.

And now, there were less than three days left before the mechanical beast tide broke out.

Come to think of it, this time was a little too tight.

He did not want to stay here for almost two days.

He had other things to do.

Hence, Lin Chen had another idea.

He chose to give up on thinking and stop collecting B-grade energy cores.

Instead, he chose to go deep into the center of the forest to find some more valuable cyber beasts.

An A-grade cyber beast was comparable to ten B-grade cyber beasts.

It would be a pleasant surprise if he could find some other S-grade cyber beasts.

With this thought in mind, he moved his huge mecha body into the depths of the forest.

After taking a few steps, Lin Chen discovered a pleasant surprise.

On a huge mechanical tree in front of him, there was a very rare mechanical egg.

The mechanical egg was oval in shape and about three meters in diameter.

There were many strange runes on the eggshell. Some of the runes looked like meteors, while others looked like ancient words.

Lin Chen was naturally curious about this huge egg.

He slowly extended his mechanical arm and carefully held the mechanical egg in his palm.

Then, he began to scan it meticulously.

"Star, analyze the origin of this egg."

[Roger, analyzing…]

Then, the interface of the huge egg appeared in front of him.

[Name: An unhatched mechanical egg (unknown creature)]

[Introduction: From the color, this huge egg is the offspring of an ancient mutated beast left behind after the Cyber Armageddon erupted. When in its biological egg form, its shape was produced by the waves and the radiation of the cyber energy.]

[From the system's inference, there are fluctuations of biological life inside this huge mechanical egg…]

"Fluctuations of biological life!"

Lin Chen suddenly saw this detail.

It had to be known that after the Cyber Armageddon erupted, all creatures other than humans had become mechanical cyber machines.

And now, the system had actually analyzed that there were still fluctuations of biological life in this mechanical egg!

This was definitely an explosive discovery!

Moreover, why was it that only the outer shell of this mechanical egg underwent cyber transformation, but the life inside did not change?

If it was in his previous life, there was no way he could believe this.

After all, at that time, all the organizations in the world were searching for creatures that had not undergone cyber transformation. They wanted to study them so that they could identify the root cause of cyber transformation.

However, nothing was found at all!

This was because after March 7th, it was impossible for there to be creatures in this world that had yet to undergo cyber transformation!

However, the system had detected fluctuations of life in this mechanical egg!

Wouldn't this mean that he had discovered a BUG-like existence in this world?

At the thought of this, he felt a little excited.

After all, in this era where all beasts had been mechanized, a creature of flesh and blood had actually appeared!

Logically speaking, flesh and blood were incomparable to mechanical bodies at all.

However, combined with the introduction from the system interface, the shell of this mechanical egg could stop the cyber transformation. To a certain extent, wasn't this ability even more BT?

Moreover, Lin Chen also noticed another important point.

This was the offspring of an ancient creature!

This was the territory of Huaxia!

An ancient creature in Huaxia; what kind of concept was this?

Not to mention those ancient divine beasts like the Winged Snake, Winged Dragon, and Winged Fish-Bird.

Just any one of the mutated beasts like the Phoenix, Qilin, Greedy Glutton, and Distressingly Strange would definitely be an S+ grade existence if they were pulled out for cyber transformation!
