Chapter 136: War-Type Advanced intelligent life

Yang Fan's consciousness hovered high in the sky, clearly sensing every change.

"So this is the Heaven and Earth Furnace Fire? This temperature is a bit troublesome!" Yang Fan frowned slightly.

In just a few moments, the perceived temperature of the entire Divine Kingdom had already risen by three or four degrees.

The Mortal believers were the first to find it unbearable; a commotion began to break out as they became drenched in sweat, their faces showing signs of discomfort.

An S-grade building with such a violent aura as the divine weapon world-forging platform was clearly a bit too much for Yang Fan's current Divine Kingdom to handle.

The Heaven and Earth Furnace Fire was originally born for forging, but its dissipated energy had already begun to adversely affect the ecology of the entire Divine Kingdom.

Right then, Yang Yi's calm voice rang out.

"Master, I suggest applying for the purchase of one thousand B-grade defensive buildings: Nine Profound Ice Towers. The unit price is thirty divinity points."

"This building can not only strengthen the overall defense System of the Divine Kingdom, but the cold air it continuously releases can also effectively neutralize the heat overflowing from the divine weapon world-forging platform."

"Application approved." Yang Fan nodded.

One thousand Nine Profound Ice Towers cost a total of thirty thousand divinity points. For the vast majority of Demigods, this was almost their entire net worth.

But for Yang Fan, it was just a normal expense.

"According to the data, the divine weapon world-forging platform can automatically forge C-grade weapons. It is equipped with an internal fully automated mining system and can connect to ten large ore veins simultaneously. I apply to purchase the matching ore vein resources."

"Approved."

"Spirit Weapon Workshop application for sale; small-scale ore vein application for sale."

"Approved."

"Considering the long-term development of the Divine Kingdom, I suggest adding a Blacksmith profession System. I apply to increase the budget for Taichu School to specifically train believers in forging skills."

Yang Fan was silent for a moment before speaking, "Increase the daily budget of Taichu School to two thousand divinity points. Advance Alchemy and forging simultaneously. I want to have a group of believers who can truly enter the divine weapon world-forging platform to craft high-level weapons in the shortest time possible."

Ever since Yang Fan broke through to become a Demigod, the development speed of his Divine Kingdom could almost be described as 'out of control'.

The overall strength of his believers had long since exploded by hundreds of times. And with their strength increased, their equipment naturally had to keep up.

Even for a believer in the Qi Refining Realm, if they could be fully equipped with a set of B-grade gear, they would be able to crush an unequipped opponent of the same Realm.

Combat power was never just about one's Realm; Martial Skills, equipment, physique, and Cultivation Techniques were all keys to victory or defeat.

Since taking out the loan from 'Elephant Borrow', Yang Fan had poured almost all his energy into investing in and expanding his Divine Kingdom. He had, whether intentionally or not, ignored the completion of his believers' 'combat power System'.

It was only now that Yang Fan truly realized this was the most obvious shortcoming of his Divine Kingdom.

"Yes, Master." Yang Yi's voice was crisp and efficient.

As expected of an advanced intelligent life, the moment the words left his mouth, all tasks were completed.

The Spirit Weapon Workshop and the small-scale ore veins—all were listed for sale.

One thousand Nine Profound Ice Towers were already in place throughout the Divine Kingdom.

Cold air, like mist, slowly diffused, clashing with the Heaven and Earth Furnace Fire released by the divine weapon world-forging platform.

The originally sweltering air quickly cooled down. The temperature was stabilized within the range most suitable for survival and cultivation.

Meanwhile, ten large ore veins had been arranged around the divine weapon world-forging platform.

The mountains rose up, and the patterns of the ore veins were clearly visible.

Accompanied by a low mechanical roar, one automated mining device after another began to operate.

Ore was rapidly mined, sorted, and cut. It was then continuously fed into the interior of the divine weapon world-forging platform via crisscrossing conveyor belts.

Firelight surged as smelting, forging, and tempering were completed in one smooth motion.

Yang Fan could even clearly perceive that C-grade weapons were being manufactured one after another. It was a continuous stream with almost no pause.

In this era, most Divine Beings following the logistics path would hesitate repeatedly and not dare to buy even F-grade weapons for a long time.

A batch of low-level weapons often meant months or even years of resource accumulation.

But at a higher level, C-grade weapons were just mass-produced 'consumables' on an assembly line. They were stacked like mountains in the thousands.

They were even being phased out and updated before they could be used.

Resources never truly disappeared. They were simply concentrated in the hands of a few in various ways.

The weak calculated meticulously just to live another day.

The strong, with a wave of their hand, commanded thousands of troops.

This was a class divide that was almost impossible to cross.

Everyone in the world has their own path; some are content with their set trajectory, while others risk everything to try and rewrite their destiny.

Yang Fan was no saint; he couldn't feel pity for all living beings. He was merely gripping tightly onto the sliver of possibility that belonged to him amidst the wind and waves.

Class is like a mountain; it won't collapse on its own. One must climb it, strike it, and endure it step by step to change the present and change oneself.

Yang Fan's gaze narrowed slightly as he said calmly, "Yang Yi, pull up the specific information for a war-type advanced intelligent life."

He naturally wouldn't ignore Gu Yuan's suggestion.

In the Taichu Battlefield, Yang Er had already shown his limits when commanding a scale of ten million believers. In a true Divine Kingdom War, the forces deployed would only be more terrifying.

Since resources were abundant, he shouldn't wait for problems to appear before trying to fix them; he naturally had to prepare for a rainy day.

[War-Type Advanced intelligent life (Fourth Grade): Price 10,000 divinity points]

An intelligent individual constructed by the Mechanical Divine Kingdom based on war logic. It can complete battlefield simulations, troop deployment, and firepower distribution in a very short time, optimizing the use of every single believer and every single weapon.

When facing complex battle situations, it can perform multi-threaded decision-making simultaneously and correct tactical deviations in real-time, causing overall combat efficiency to increase exponentially.

Embedded with multiple combat modules, it can switch freely according to the battlefield environment.

At the same time, this unit can connect with other intelligent Systems in the Divine Kingdom, taking over defensive buildings, fighter squadrons, formation nodes, and other resources to achieve true all-domain war coordination.

Evaluation: Ten thousand troops as one, orderly attack and defense; deployment with a single thought, combat power doubled. With this intelligent life in charge, the Divine Kingdom will no longer be a place of scattered soldiers, but a true war machine.]

The price of a war-type advanced intelligent life was not cheap; it was a full hundred times more expensive than Yang Er.

Yang Fan only glanced at the price, but he wasn't surprised. The closer an intelligent life was to the 'war' direction, the rarer and more expensive it became.

However, with his current financial strength, ten thousand divinity points were nothing; there was no need to hesitate.

"Buy it for me." Yang Fan's tone was calm.

"Yes."

The moment Yang Yi responded, a red light cluster quietly emerged in the Divine Kingdom.

Although the price was as high as ten thousand divinity points, its essence was no different from Yang Yi and Yang Er. It still had no physical form and was just a Soul-like consciousness.

"Master, please choose an outward appearance and personality, and give me a name." The red light cluster slowly floated in front of Yang Fan.

"Middle-aged male. Decisive and warlike personality. Name: Yang San." Yang Fan said.
