Su Han arrived at the command center and said to the duty major general, "That Bloodthirsty Sect is too detestable. How dare they steal our hovercars? If other sects follow suit, can our hovercar business continue?"
The duty major general whispered, "Then what is Vice Minister Su Han's intention?"
"Punishment! We must punish that Bloodthirsty Sect."
The duty major general immediately said, "Alright, then we will go and punish that Bloodthirsty Sect. I will directly dispatch a large army to attack their stronghold."
Su Han shook his head and said, "No need to be so troublesome. Use missiles. Fire a missile to blow up the Bloodthirsty Sect's stronghold. Demonic sects, and one named Bloodthirsty Sect, must have committed countless wicked deeds."
The duty major general replied, "Yes!"
A few minutes later, a medium-range hypersonic missile flew out from a launch silo tens of kilometers away from the teleportation gate.
At this time, the Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect brought two hovercars back to the sect's central plaza. Almost every sect's base had a plaza, which was used as a training ground for disciples.
The Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect directly boarded the hovercar bus and found the user manual. This manual described how to drive the hovercar. After reading it, the Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect directly turned off the hoverbus and the hovercars.
The Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect said, "These two mechanical vehicles are truly ingenious. I don't sense any spiritual energy within these hovercars. Are they not driven by spiritual energy?"
The Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect turned to look at the elder of the Bloodthirsty Sect standing beside him and asked, "Do you know what drives these mechanical vehicles?"
The elder of the Bloodthirsty Sect replied, "If they are not driven by spirit stones, then I don't know what drives them."
At this moment, the Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect took out a booklet and said, "Hehehe, this manual states that these mechanical vehicles are driven by something called a battery. You are truly stupid, not even knowing this."
The elder of the Bloodthirsty Sect muttered to himself, clearly having seen the contents of the manual, yet feigning ignorance.
The elder of the Bloodthirsty Sect asked, "How long can these batteries drive these mechanical vehicles? Even things driven by spirit stones in some sects will eventually run out of power."
The Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect replied, "It doesn't say how long they will last. It only says that if the hovercar stops moving, use this communication device to contact the seller of the batteries. One spirit stone can get you a new battery pack."
The elder of the Bloodthirsty Sect said, "Sect Master, then after we robbed the things from that force, won't the mechanical vehicles be immobile once the batteries run out?"
The Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect considered this and said, "Hmm, this is indeed a problem. In that case, send someone to find the sect behind these mechanical vehicles and directly snatch some from them."
The elder of the Bloodthirsty Sect said, "Sect Master, the force behind those mechanical vehicles will surely resist."
"Hahaha!" The Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect laughed heartily, then said, "Those forces? A force that doesn't even retaliate when their mechanical vehicles are destroyed, dare to resist us? Aren't they seeking death? As soon as we see them, we will destroy them."
The Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect continued to laugh uncontrollably. While laughing, he looked up at the sky.
As he tilted his head back, he saw a black dot descending towards his location, trailing flames from its rear.
"That thing above is falling! Quickly, initiate defenses, it might be a magical artifact from a righteous sect attacking us!"
The Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect immediately manifested his magical artifact.
The elder of the Bloodthirsty Sect did not dare to be careless and, like the Sect Master, also conjured his magical artifact to prepare to resist the object from above.
The Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect felt a bit strange again, as there was no fluctuation of spiritual energy from the object above. The Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect thought to himself: Could it be some kind of object being dropped directly? But would a righteous sect engage in such a direct dropping of items? What about the flames at the rear?
As the Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect was bewildered, the object directly descended and impacted the plaza of the Bloodthirsty Sect.
A violent fire erupted. The explosion engulfed everything around it. The shockwave of the explosion spread outwards. The building adjacent to the plaza was directly destroyed by the explosion. The fiery blast also submerged both the Sect Master and the elder of the Bloodthirsty Sect.
After the explosion, the Sect Master and the elder of the Bloodthirsty Sect, protected by their magical artifacts, were not killed but were in a very sorry state.
The Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect, looking at the destroyed main building and the heavily casualties among the disciples in the plaza, was filled with rage: "Who? Who was it? Damn it!"
The Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect was at the mid-Golden Core stage. With this level of strength, combined with the protection of his magical artifact, the medium-range missile did not kill him. The elder of the Bloodthirsty Sect, at the early Golden Core stage, was also not killed.
The elder of the Bloodthirsty Sect looked at the large crater in the center of the plaza with lingering fear, thinking that if he had been at the epicenter of the explosion, he would have been severely injured.
The elder of the Bloodthirsty Sect was at the early Golden Core stage, while the Grand Elder of the Clear Wind Sect was also at the early Golden Core stage. It had taken Su Han and others a considerable amount of energy cannon fire to deal with them previously.
After roaring in anger, the Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect flew up into the sky to find out who had dropped this object.
In his rage, the eyes of the Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect had turned red.
The Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect continued to ascend, quickly reaching an altitude of two thousand meters.
But there was still nothing around. The Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect directly ascended above the clouds and finally saw something flying towards him. It was a drone.
"Magical artifact? No, this magical artifact has no spiritual energy. This is also a mechanical contraption. Could it be from that force?"
He had only seen such things, which could move without spiritual energy fluctuations, on those two mechanical vehicles.
The Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect immediately connected the dots.
At this moment, a voice came from the drone.
"Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect, this is the punishment for you stealing our mechanical vehicles. Now, hand over one hundred thousand spirit stones, and we can let you go."
As the Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect emerged, the drone's belly opened, and over a dozen small black dots fell out.
The Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect assumed they were bombs like the previous one.
"Damn it, how dare you attack my Bloodthirsty Sect!"
In his anger, the Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect fired a blast of spiritual power at the drone.
The spiritual power struck the drone.
"Bang."
The drone exploded.
The Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect flew downwards, intending to pursue the small black dots.
As he got closer, the Bloodthirsty Sect could see that each of these objects was a cube, about an inch in size.
And from these small cubes, the broadcast continued: "Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect, this is the punishment for you stealing our mechanical vehicles. Now, hand over one hundred thousand spirit stones, and we can let you go."
The Sect Master of the Bloodthirsty Sect immediately understood. These objects were meant to inform the ordinary disciples of the Bloodthirsty Sect below that the previous explosion was a consequence of the Sect Master's theft of the two mechanical vehicles.
