Before he finished speaking, the mechanical spider seemed to have discovered their existence.

Its mechanical eyes emitted red light, and then it moved faster.

"It's not good..." [Eternal]'s face changed, "It regards us as the source of the disorder of the rules."

Li Yang immediately understood the seriousness of the matter.

After contact with those exiled concepts in the concept space, they are likely to be marked with some kind of "mark".

These rule-maintaining devices will treat them as targets to be eliminated.

"Split up and retreat!" he shouted decisively.

The few people quickly dispersed, but the mechanical spider chose to pursue Li Yang.

It seems that in its judgment, Li Yang is the biggest threat.

The mechanical spider was extremely fast and closed the distance in the blink of an eye.

Its metal tentacles whipped towards Li Yang like a whip, leaving deep ravines on the ground.

Li Yang dodged several times in succession before finally escaping the attack, but he almost lost his balance as a result.

At this critical moment, Bai Zhi suddenly called from the side:

"Li Yang, go on!"

The next moment, a vine suddenly burst out of the ground and wrapped around Li Yang's waist, pulling him away from the attack range of the mechanical spider.

Although this area is deserted, the rules are weak, which allows Bai Zhi to use her abilities more freely.

And [Eternity] did not stand idly by.

He formed a seal with his hands, and a silver light curtain suddenly appeared in the path of the mechanical spider.

That is the ability to freeze time.

The power of [Eternity] is very powerful, but he doesn't seem to be very keen on it.

And in such a place, the effect may not be as strong as in a normal area, but at least it can buy some time.

But what everyone didn't expect was that the mechanical spider actually smashed the time-frozen light curtain head-on.

The next moment, he appeared directly in front of everyone.

[Eternal] frowned with a look of disgust:

"Tsk...no surprise."

Since the thing in front of you is not a normal substance.

Naturally, his abilities in the material plane cannot directly affect this thing.

But the next moment, the [Observer] who had been hovering in the sky for observation suddenly said:

"Wait...it looks like this machine isn't just after us."

Li Yang took time to observe while avoiding the attack of the mechanical spider.

Sure enough, I found that the movement trajectory of this behemoth was a bit strange...

Although it was chasing Li Yang and his party, it seemed to be moving along a specific route.

"It's...weaving something."

Bai Zhi was keenly aware that every time the eight metal legs of the mechanical spider landed, it would leave a faint trace on the ground.

And these traces are gradually connecting into some kind of complex pattern.

"It's a regular network." [Eternal] looked solemn,

"It's trying to fix the loopholes in this blind spot."

"Once completed, we will be fully exposed to the surveillance of the Order."

Hearing this, Li Yang's heart sank.

Obviously, once this machine is allowed to complete the construction of the regular network, they will not only lose this shelter where they can breathe, but they may also be discovered by more powerful cleaners.

But at this moment, he suddenly noticed a detail.

When this machine leaves traces on the ground, its movements become sluggish, as if it is injecting a large amount of energy into the ground.

"Maybe...this is an opportunity."

He muttered to himself, quickly sketching a plan in his mind.

"Baizhi, [Observer], can you find out the rules of how it builds a network?"

Li Yang asked while dodging.

The two quickly understood his intentions.

[Observer] The transformed raven continues to hover high in the sky, overlooking the entire area, while Bai Zhi uses the perception of plants to detect the flow of energy underground.

"It seems to be moving according to a certain geometric pattern..." [Observer]'s voice came from the sky,

"If I'm not mistaken, it's in the shape of a five-pointed star."

"That's right..." Bai Zhi continued,

"And each vertex will form a fixed energy node."

"It's now done with three, with the final two to go."

Li Yang's eyes lit up: "In that case..."

"[Eternity], can you create another time freeze?"

The silver-haired middle-aged man nodded:

"Although the effect is not big, delaying it for a second or two is not a big problem."

"That's enough." Li Yang quickly said his plan,

"When it starts building the next node, attack at the same time."

"That's when its energy is most dispersed and when it's most vulnerable."

Several people quickly reached an agreement. Bai Zhi began to bury vine traps underground, while the [Observer] continued to guide the movement direction of the mechanical spider in the air.

Finally, the huge machine reached the fourth node position.

Just when it was about to inject energy, Li Yang glanced at it and shouted:

"Now!"

[Eternity] immediately activates its ability, and a silver light curtain envelopes the mechanical spider.

Although it could only be restricted for a moment, this brief stagnation gave Bai Zhi enough time.

Countless vines burst out of the ground and wrapped around the eight metal legs of the mechanical spider.

Li Yang seized this opportunity and directly attacked the energy core in the belly of the machine.

But just when he was about to succeed, something unexpected happened.

The surface of the mechanical spider suddenly cracked, revealing the real core inside.

It was an intelligent body with a roughly human appearance!

"This?!"

Suddenly, everyone was stunned.

The humanoid creature opened his eyes and made a mechanical voice:

"Warning, a rule escaper was found...activate the emergency plan."

The next moment, the entire mechanical spider suddenly disintegrated and turned into countless tiny parts that reassembled in the air.

In front of the three people, those parts were reassembled into three smaller but more flexible deformed structures.

And the humanoid creature floated in the air, surrounded by a data stream-like light:

"Number, Rule Enforcer No. 921."

"Detection of concept pollution carriers, must be eliminated."

The situation of Li Yang and others instantly became more dangerous.

Not only do they have to face the siege of three mechanical hunters, but they also have to beware of the strange humanoid creature in the air.

What's worse is that they found themselves being suppressed in the center of the unfinished pentagram formation.

As time went by, the faint traces of rules on the ground gradually lit up.

"This thing... is using our existence to forcibly stabilize the rule network!"

[Observer] exclaimed.

Li Yang gritted his teeth and his brain was working rapidly. A bold idea gradually took shape in his mind.

Since the other party wants to use their existence to stabilize the rules... why not...

Take advantage of their strategy?
