Fei Heng sat depressed inside the base, he was looking at the reports coming, all his recon robot that he sent north was destroyed one after another. After a while, he shifts his attention to another screen.
"Basic Air Combat Robot: Strong melee abilities and good speed. Cost: requires energy: 30 units daily energy consumption, 450 kg of basic material and 2450 kg of steel. Production time 1 hour"
"Basic Range Air Combat Robot: Strong range abilities and good speed. Main weapon: Vulcan cannons, 100 energy per shot Cost: requires energy: 30 units daily energy consumption, 450 kg of basic material and 2450 kg of steel. Production time 1 hours"
He hadn't give it much attention at that time but now. He didn´t expect that we would meet a fiery air animal so soon, but at is initial plannig his thought of the fierceness of this place hadn´t passed the black panther mark wet. Again remembering the panther his mood worsens.
"What if I directly go and eliminate them".
He had an impulse to directly enter a fight with this pterosaur-like animal but restrain himself, at least for now. He didn´t know if this mountain really had any mineral, or else he would just enter into a pointless battle.
This made him thought a lot about expanding north and in the end, he put it on hold as this mountain was nearly 250 km from where he is now.
Then he shifts his attention to the south exploration. The recon robot he sends south move much slower comparing to thus sent north. This is because the recon robot sent south would conduct a more advanced analysis over the terrain in its course.
Now all his combat units are operational, and he is starting to increase his energy reserve, so he decides to define a production plan.
"Set Air Combat unit production to 1:10 of fight insect and constant production of fight robot according to weekly sustainable energy consumption and constantly production of Solar Umbrella. "
" Set other units to production on-demand"
"~~"
Fei Heng quickly changes his focus to a more important thing right now, his empty belly problem, he was starving and he could not hold it much more.
Then he sends 3 of his fight robot to go hunt for something he could eat. After a while, he could see the two spider-like fight robot coming back from within the forest. He licked his lips hoping to be a black panther.
When the fight robot bust out of the forest he could see a bloodied body of a boar-like animal dangling from the arm of one robot.
"kkk... well done "Fei Heng was excited although it wasn´t a panther he thinks it's better than something like a wolf or so.
"Base make a grill and collecting some pile of dry wood. "Fei Heng gave the order, some robot insect to act rapidly, like claws with pliers picking up some sticks on the ground around, it was then held up in a pile. At the same time came a sound from the base as a grill with a wheel walkout from the base.
He prepares everything with a light speed as his belly was dying for some food.
As he was about to grill the meat came a fiery roar of large creatures, Fei Heng immediately turns around to look, e could see a creature like a big dinosaurs head, to be more exactly like a snakehead with a very tiny horn resembling an arrow.
"What that fuck..."
Two small eyes inspect their surroundings from their thin sockets. A bony nose rests below, but its mouth below that takes all the attention. It now barely open reveals rows upon rows of teeth and a flat tongue.
Narrow bent ears sit on each side of its huge, bony head, which itself is covered in coarse-scale and has two bony spikes protruding from the top.
Its long slender body is hunched over. Two broad sword-like arms dangle at its sides and end in broad hands with small fingers, of which it has 12 in total. Its legs are short and stand straight, each ending in long feet.
Its body is covered in a long thick black scale that clearly shows that it's tough and its shoulders are narrower than its pelvis, from which a spiked tail sways back and forth.
Fei Heng face was constantly getting worse as he watches the creature revealing its body. The. When it was completely out of the forest cover with its body reaching about 3-meter height.
ROAR!!" Then the beast releases a deafening roar leaping into the first Basic Robot fight insect it was in front of him. In an instant, its claws pierce through the fight Robot body
"Boom!!"
"Basic Robot fight insect XX-f3s destroyed " a mechanical voice coming from the base broke Fei Heng from the initial shock at seeing such a creature that could only crawl out of the nightmare in from of his eyes
"ROAR!!".
"Attack all out. "
Fei Heng voice sounds rust and in an urgent manner after once more wearing the beast deafening roar.
After his voice ends the ground starts to tremble a bit as 27 fighting robots. The first robot to get near the creature leaps into to the air and stretching its arm so it could cause more damage to the creature. The moment the robot claw reach the creature scale it only scratches it a bit and its claw bending to the point of broking.
Then the creature again raises its claws piercing the robot that hit him just now. Again the creature claws easily pierce through the robot body.
"Boom!!"
It was clear from the first creature attack and the robot attack just now in what direction the fight will turn.
The fight progresses this manner after 4 or 7 robots was down and Fei Heng was clearly seeing that his robot attack will not work and he needs to do something before the thing turns too ugly. Fei Heng eyes scan the creature very carefully, then he sees the moments the creature raise its claws there is a small part below its arm joint where there's no scale there and clearly seem soft.
"Attack its arm joint... Attack its arm joint..." Fei Heng voice sounds a bit calmer now. He had a bit of time to calm himself after the surprising appearance of the creature.
One of the robots locate at it back start to aim for the arm joint instead of its scales another robots leaps again straight out to attack raising its claw and aiming at the creature but the attack didn't have any effect on the creature. The creature raises its arm again to destroy the robot but this moment there's a little flash o light and then there's a splash of viscous dark red blood. It's was clear that the creature arm was just cut off now by one of the robots

"ROAR" This time this roar didn't seem deafening instead seems more like a painful one.
"Ha ha ha ha ..." Fei Heng starts to laugh but then he felt a deep dread coming from deep inside his soul.
The eyes of the creature now seem more unnatural and more vicious. There is a cloud of black smoke coming out around the creature body it starts to expand very fast and in an instant, the robots body could clearly see marks of erosion.
Inside the smoke, there's a flash of light moving at an incredible speed, and each time the light move there's an explosion followed by it after.
"S**t. F***ing s**t... Holy S**t." Fei Heng face was clearly transforming according to his words. His little moment of joy is now completely transforming into a nightmare. It clearly that before the creature was not fighting seriously as it didn't felt threatened before even by the number of robots.
"Basic Robot fight insect XX-f9e destroyed " the base mechanical voice constantly reporting the downfall of the robots.
Fei Heng now is thinking about a way to defeat the creature before it finishes playing with the robots. The Mechanical Civilization has a lot of powerful weapons that could vaporize this creature in an instant but he didn't have any now, as it requires rare material and lots of energy.
"Ah. How could I forget it" Fei Heng now just remember probably the only thing that could solve this creature problem?
"Prepare the base main cannon and shot immediately" Fei Heng shot his thought as fast he could think it.
Outside on top of the base, the biggest cannon start to move and aim at the creature. At the tip of the cannon, there's is a little blue light that is constantly growing.
" fiissSSS"
A glowing ball of light was shot at an incredible speed that could not even be accompanied by the eyes.
The creature a this moment suddenly stop he felt a life treating danger, but before it could identify the danger or try anything to preserve his life.The creature body was hit by the cannon shot, the moment it hit the creature body there was an explosion causing it to destroy almost half of the creature.
The creature body now looks more like a rag doll than a creature ta would torment someone dreams, it body lay there complete immovable in his eyes could still be seeing the ferocity it had as it didn't have time to even realizing what happened.
"~~~~~~"
" 13 Basic Robot fight insect was destroyed and 7 need repair...1000 energy consumption from the main cannon..." the base mechanical voice constantly reporting the battle logs.
Fei Heng fear has completely disappeared from his heart, after calming down he orders to clean the creature and the destroyed robot so he could recycle it and repair thus that need.
He sat inside the base, in his hand was holding a crystal-like object.
"So this is a crystalize energy" Fei Heng murmur to himself. Accordingly, to the base, there is some special region in the universe where there is a special energy. This energy could alter an organism and even minerals in countless way and also there is a different type of this special energy as each one of them had their one peculiarity.
"This explains the creature tough body and the strange black smoke that came out of it". This crystallized energy came from the creature. After he had died and its body was transformed into 3000 unit of energy and Fei Heng was more than happy about it even forgetting the cost of firing the main cannon.
"Base what use does a have for this" Fei Heng ask curiously.
"Could be direct transform in 40000 energy"
"Could be used as an energy field blast "(Note: similar to a mini nuclear bomb)
"Could be used as energy heart- require base at level 3"
"Could be used as energy brain- require base at level 5"
"...."
The base keeps listing lots o thing that could be used with this crystallized energy. But now his mind shifts between directly consuming it or making an energy field blast.
"Nah. Let it be transformed into energy."
Although the energy field blast seems to be too tempting, but 40 shot sound better than one and if he finds a lot of creature like the one he just met.
"Wait" Fei Heng changes his mind the moment he remembers that he clearly didn't know all the danger in this forest or even this new world.
"It better to have something for unsuspect visitors like the last one".
"~~~~~~"
"Expand in accordance with the new plan"
"Plan set. Begining operation" the base voice sound and outdoor 4 recon robot take off.
In Fei Heng new plan he decides to expand to south and southeast as this is the direction that he could see less trace of any wild beast like the creature he last met as this is completely the opposite direction of that beast appearance, and he set the recon robot to be alert and notify him of anything that could be a treat. Although this expansion in that direction didn't guaranty that he could meet any beast but it was the best he could come with right now.
At this moment his fight units have been increased to 19 fight robot, 10 recon robot, two mineral recovery vehicle and a new unit.
"Basic Range Combat Robot V2: Strong range abilities and slow. Main weapon: Blast cannons, 700 energy per shot Cost: requires energy 300 units daily energy consumption, 7500 kg of basic material and 3450 kg of steel. Production time 4 hours"
The Range Combat Robot had a body like the fighting robot (a spider-like body) but the difference between his larger body than the fighting robot and the big cannon of approximate 2 meters on top of it.
Fei Heng decides to make only one of it was the cost of it would make him go bankrupt in a matter of seconds, a least for now.
Of course, possibly because of the abundance of energies here, where the animal seems significantly much more sturdy than on Earth.
"~~~~~"
Fei Heng sat inside the base looking at the screen.
"Some shit dog actually dares to pest me "Fei Heng then send a command to attack. He encounters this group of wolves when his base was expanding southeast. At the first, he thought it gonna be like the strange creature but they are more like to be the creature snack
With the command, the 7 fight robot immediately pounced like a lightning.
The two wolves didn't know what's what happens they could only feel something stabbed, then followed by pliers with "click" sound the wolf waist was cut.
"Wow ... ..." 20 more wolves are surrounding the fighting robot all growling, showing teeth and disgusting saliva dripping to the ground. if there was a human it would probably die just by been surround. Fight Robot will certainly not feel this way, don't say wolf group, even if it was surrounded by a group of monsters, they wouldn't feel anything.
"It seems you came prepared! " Fei Heng thought.
"Kaka! " to show off Giant black spider-like fight robot waving their claws and pincers, watching this is truly awe-inspiring.
"ROAR," The Wolf growling provocatively enough.
Regardless of speed, defence or offence, fight robot are significantly higher than the wolves with their powerful and sharp front teeth without any resistance at all.
A collision, fight robot ruthlessly cutting wolf's body with blood splashing everywhere. The wolfs, although the number are dominant but was soon killed with seven or eight left, and fight robot no loss at all. The rest of the wolf not waiting to be surrounded they decide to run.
"Don't chase! "Fei Heng orders. He orders to not chase because he didn't know what he could probably find in there
"Base set a task to clean the fight ground and collect the wolf's body "
The dead body of the wolf could be turned into energy, but the thick and deep bloodstains on the ground will certainly attract powerful predators.
After such an episode with the strange creature, Fei Heng was more aware of the danger and cruelty of the law of the jungle. Because if the fighting robot was strong enough, then he could only hope for divine intervention.
In a blink of eyes as already evening. 34 fight robot, 150 Miniature vigilance insect robot, 20 recon robot, 3 Air Combat robot, Miner machinery and robot and a Range Combat Robot. Now main base energy reserves had reached 6000 units, which Fei Heng was very happy with.
"All the robot back to the main base, suspended operations, set defence operation and destroy all creatures that get near the base."
"The main production base continued in accordance with the established scale. "
After Fei Heng issued the command, he ate some raw meat with a frown face and enter the main base to sleep.
The night passed without accident, woke up the next day, he found on the ground in front of a row of fight robot and other robots, numbering more than 200.
"Report. Recon robot has discovered a mine. "The main base reports.
"Oh, really? Where? "Fei Heng urgently asks, looking at the giant miner machine. He was eager to start using it and praying that the mine is not too far away.
" In the Southeast, 62.24 km away. " The main base report.
"Continued development in the southeast! "He didn't think too much and slightly hesitating, he ordered anyway
With the increase of resource, he could expand without much worried and far wider.
Listen to commands, all robot starts to move southeast, and the forest development is automatically divided into two parts, the left half to protect the main base, half with the pioneering force of mechanical insects, and removing obstacles encountered.
