Transcendent Dawn

Chapter 851: Chapter 0851: Attack Chapter 851: Chapter 0851: Attack How can the chaotic forces spontaneously integrate?

Financial magnates, commoners, the church, Transcendent organizations…

Although there are no more fragmented nations, there are still too many unstable forces in this world.

In this grand era of great upheavals, each has its own interests and contradictions.

Conflict and war were inevitable.

To be honest, Su Lu was not optimistic that they would ultimately compromise and jointly build a structure that transcended society.

Therefore, a powerful external force was needed.

An external force powerful enough to destroy the world had to intervene.

Survival and reproduction are always the two innate desires of living beings!

Only under the threat of a great external survival crisis may they abandon their internal strife and unite against a common enemy.

“It’s like a piece of ore full of impurities; it must be hammered fiercely before it can be smelted into steel…”
“I want them to understand that, in the face of death, all other struggles are laughable.”
“Besides, this is also a rehearsal for war…

If the social ascension I plan fails, then we must enter the Eighth Level of the Spirit World to wage war against the worlds of other [Creators].”

Posero City.

This is an important port within the Federation of the Light of Steam.

Standing atop a giant lighthouse, Su Lu looked down at the many steel ships and stacked containers not far away.

Below, row upon row of anthropomorphic golems labored hard, replacing the previous multitude of workers.

Outside the port terminal, unemployed crowds formed protest groups, holding banners and confronting the guards at the warehouse, with conflict seeming imminent.

“Protest!”
“The machines are devouring people!”
“We want work, we want bread!”
Near the entrance to the docks.

A large number of unemployed workers gathered, and under the leadership of Rus, they began to attack the defensive line composed of second-generation anthropomorphic golems.

“Sir!

Please do not use violence!”
The anthropomorphic golem’s eyes exuded a crimson light, “Otherwise…

after three warnings, I have the authority to retaliate!”
“Since when can machines harm humans?”
Rus shouted, “Brethren, take action!

This trend must be stopped.”
Witnessing this scene, he was genuinely frightened.

If machines could replace workers, soldiers, do everything, then what use were they?

By that time, the elite might not even bother to keep them in captivity, just throwing them out into the wild to survive or die on their own, at most selecting some individuals with excellent bloodlines for ‘use’.

That was absolutely a dark future.

‘Compared to that, even the infusion of Beasts’ bloodlines seems less frightening…’
Rus roared again, “For ourselves, for our future children, dismantle these machines!”
“Call on the Federation to legislate, ban machines from taking our jobs!”
…

The crowd grew more tumultuous, and finally, a stone thrown from who knows where hit an anthropomorphic golem on the head.

Crack!

It did not retreat; only a small dent formed on its metallic surface.

“Warning!

Under attack, you are infringing upon Mr.

Orslo’s private property, and he has the right to self-defense!”
The anthropomorphic golem raised its arm, equipped with firearms, the black muzzle aimed at the crowd.

The clamorous crowd suddenly paused.

“I don’t believe it!”
Rus shouted, “I don’t believe you dare to shoot!”
There was cold sweat on his forehead, but he had to stay strong.

Then, a disturbance erupted from within the crowd.

An orange-red fireball condensed and smashed into the defensive line of the anthropomorphic golems.

Boom!

The blast and heat wave swept through.

“It’s the ‘Apostles,’ there are other Apostles besides me!”
Rus’s forehead was covered in cold sweat, “No…”
He had only intended to stage a demonstration, which might have ended in a compromise from the higher-ups, but he did not wish for it to escalate into a major conflict!

But by then, it was no longer within his control.

“Prepare to eliminate the threat!”
The mechanical soldier emitted a voice devoid of any emotion, ready to pull the trigger.

Boom!

Boom!

Just then, an even larger explosion came from the warehouse district.

The massive shipping containers suddenly turned into blazing infernos.

The terrifying shockwaves surged forth, sending crowds tumbling backwards.

“Attackers!

Lighthouse district!

Highest level of defense!”
The mechanical soldiers originally poised to suppress the crowd turned in unison and ran towards the lighthouse district.

“What’s going on…?”
Rus struggled to his feet, disheveled.

He seemed to hear a terrible sound in his ears, as if thousands of horses were crashing down.

Crash!

It wasn’t the sound of charging horses, but the terrifying tsunami.

The raging waters rushed into the warehouse district, transforming into a colossal azure hand, of untold weight.

Countless bullets hit it, only to pass through the water fruitlessly, without any effect.

The giant hand was raised high, obscuring the sun above before coming down with crushing force.

Boom!

Hundreds of mechanical golems were flattened into metal slabs, leaving the dock area in utter chaos.

Not to mention, the ships in the harbor were being destroyed and dragged underwater, as if attacked by some leviathan beneath the sea.

This single strike alone caused the Federation losses equivalent to the destruction of a small city!

“What is this…

What’s happening?”
Rus’s head was spinning.

…

“The dock area?

Trouble again?”
Rod and Anfi stepped outside their house, looking towards the direction of the docks, their exclamations one of disbelief.

They saw the azure seas forming waves tens of meters high above the horizon, which, at the moment, appeared as though frozen solid, not crashing down.

“Cough cough…

good day to you all!”
Amidst a grandiose voice, a human face emerged from within the vast waters.

That face looked somewhat familiar to Rod.

“It’s Turing!

Turing Arthas!”
“That college classmate, the one you called a madman?” Anfi also had some recollection of him.

“He’s not a madman; who else could do something like this?

Does he want to destroy this city?

He is provoking the Federation, provoking the four major churches!”
Rod spoke swiftly, “Even if he is a Sixth Level ‘Apostle,’ it’s suicide!”
Though he said this, he couldn’t help but feel somewhat worried.

“Let’s go!”
He grabbed Anfi and his family by the shoulders, instantly teleporting them to a safe area outside the city.

“Dear, wait here.

I’ll have a look.

Don’t worry about me!”
Rod flashed a smile.

At this moment, he was already a Fifth Level ‘Void Demon,’ a figure of great stature in the Mysterious Realm.

With a mere thought, he instantly teleported to the airspace above the dock area, hidden within the Void, ready to see what Turing was really up to.

…

At the same moment.

Inside the church in Posero City.

Although there were other faiths in the city, this was the domain of the Steam Goddess Church, and the steam church they built was the most magnificent and imposing.

At that time, amidst countless sounds of metal friction, the church split down the middle, revealing a massive hollow beneath it.

The gears grinded against the tracks, emitting dazzling sparks.

A colossal mecha, tens of meters tall, was brought to land and took heavy steps towards the dock district.

—Super Giant Mechanical Battle Armor!

Only the Steam Archbishop had the power to operate this mysterious contraption that was a fusion of technology and secrecy!
