Soul of Burning Steel

The black tentacles comparable to a long river waved in mid-air, and then fell towards the position of the exploration team with enough force to crush the continent.

It still didn't hit its own target, and the shock wave and tidal force alone caused the entire continent's surface to undergo drastic changes.

The violent hurricane swept across the mountains and plains of World One, shattering the metal deposits accumulated for millions of years. Huge dust clouds rose from the surface and turned into new high-heat clouds, and the central continent of World One also suffered from this A long dent appeared in the blow that had not yet come.

If it is a waste to kill a chicken with a sledgehammer, then the strength of the black mist this time is far more powerful than anti-aircraft guns to kill mosquitoes, but almost like a star destroyer to kill cockroaches—a huge black mist aggregate is not enough to kill a small team. The unknown life whose source is known, the extravagant use of a surface cleaning level attack capable of destroying a medieval civilization, if it actually hits the continent, it will undoubtedly cause the plate to split.

In this regard, Priest just raised the giant crystal shield in his hand.

Advanced Gravity Shield——is located in the exchange center of the Empire's Foreign Exploration Department. It is a high-level magic creation worth 4000 points and a C-level exchange authority. It has the ability to resist most physical attacks by creating a gravity field to induce unloading. This It is not a particularly rare and rare magic item. On top of it, there is a B-level exchange authority, a phase transfer magic circle with 7500 exchange points and an A-level space isolation shield. It can put the holder into An artificial space that blocks all attacks.

But the giant shield in Priest's hand is different. Although its material is just ordinary crystal, Priest personally injected a little power from Joshua into it—the power of steel to transform this ordinary The creation of mana, making it the carrier of inheritance handed over by warriors to Priest.

That is absolute protection.

In Ares Fortress in the past, Priest begged Joshua for the knowledge called "Guardian". He wanted to protect the person he wanted to protect, and keep her away from all dangers and disasters. The warrior readily agreed, and he Putting the inherited information in a ray of steel power and handing it over to the other party, allowing Priest to comprehend this power in practice. Priest naturally understands Joshua's expectations, so he exchanged a side that is most in line with the inheritance. Gravity shield to carry it.

What the fighters gave Priest is the inheritance from "gravity". With the gravity shield as the guide, he will gradually learn how to control gravity and deflect attacks. As Priest's strength improves, that side Ordinary gravity shields will gradually become the strongest shields in the world, the real barriers of time and space. If one day Priest becomes a legend in this way, then the shield in his hand will become the barrier between the world and the void, and become the barrier between the world and the void. Even the evil gods can't tear it apart directly, and can only use various means to indirectly weaken the 'absolute protection'.

But now, he is far from growing to that point. Facing the casual blow of the black mist, Priest raised his shield without hesitation. The power of steel lodged in the shield.

Immediately, a brilliant silver light erupted, and the translucent crystal shield exploded into countless fine crystal fragments in an instant. A terrifying power that could not be used to erupt with all its power at the moment it lost its carrier, and it erupted s consequence--

It is contraction.

Under the black tentacles pressing down on the mainland, time and space began to distort in a degree visible to the naked eye. It could be seen that countless crystal fragments stayed in place as if they had been frozen, and the brilliance like a galaxy danced in the center of the shattered crystals—but Every time it jumps, it is not expanding, but shrinking rapidly, and a huge gravitational disturbance is suddenly generated, as if a huge entity from a distant place is connected to this place across the world. At the same time, space grooves begin to appear. , it is like a tentacle, absorbing the surrounding matter at a crazy speed.

The off-roaders of the entire foreign exploration team were shrouded in a strange light, and were not absorbed by the groove, but the surrounding land and mountains were not so lucky. They seemed to be grabbed by an invisible hand, and then pulled Entering the endlessly shrinking silver light, in just a fraction of a second, the surrounding metal mountains and the earth were stripped of most of the matter, and the rapidly expanding giant vortex-shaped space-time twisted in the black The tentacles of the mist took shape, and it jumped up, hitting the black tentacles.

"—Zizi?!"

Sensing the change and feeling the great threat, the black mist began to quickly adjust the output and shape of its tentacles, but it was too late. At this time, the black mist had completely lost control over that part of the body. He could just watch that mass of time-space distortion rising like an upside-down meteor, smashing its river-like black tentacles with ease, and being involved in its own gravitational disturbance.

The so-called protection is to resist all the energy released by the enemy, and this distorted gravitational nova swallows all the terrifying power of the black mist tentacles that can shatter the continent into itself, like a bottomless abyss, and this abyss is inside it The engulfment reached its limit, and when it rose to the highest altitude, it immediately collapsed itself, producing an unparalleled big explosion!

--boom!

In the dark cosmic space, a bright spot beyond the stars appeared. Countless substances that had been swallowed into the gravitational vortex before and had not been completely transformed were returned by its crazy reverse spout, and could be seen immediately. With the shock wave of half a planet, there is a circle of nebula mist spreading in the high sky of World No. 1, in which countless energy and dust, together with dazzling light and heat, temporarily illuminate this world that has lost its stars.

On the other side, the black mist that lost one of its tentacles is rapidly fleeing towards the dark space of the universe——it has a trace of sincere fear from this inexplicable attack.

As a cluster of miniature runes, the Black Mist has almost immortality. If the attack method does not reach the microcosm, then no amount of terrifying attack can kill it. Part of your own body connection, and then erase it into the most common elementary particles or even pure energy. Under such an attack, there is no 'immortality' and 'immortality', even if it is an eternal existence in the past, if it is hit , will also be obliterated.

This situation is so similar to it.

Before this cloud of black mist fled, it seemed to stay in the direction of the 'dark rainbow' for a moment, and the next moment, it disappeared into the vast darkness without a trace.

At the same time, the entire elite exploration team, together with their flying car, fell to the ground rapidly in a trance.

Amidst the ear-piercing sound of metal scraping, the solid speeding vehicle fell to the ground. It pulled a long dent on the ground, and then stopped on a pile of metal clusters—it can be seen that the lower half of the entire off-road vehicle The body of the car was completely damaged due to intense friction, and the body made of fine gold alloy was also difficult to resist this kind of wear and tear.

However, the occupants of the car were not all wiped out - before the impact came, everyone made corresponding preparations. They used magic, grudge, holy light, and even alchemy glue to fix themselves in place. position, and then cast a shield to resist the impact. This series of actions did save their lives.

But saving his life does not mean that there is no serious problem. When Priest woke up from the stupor, he found that his hands holding the shield before and even the magic armor had completely disappeared. The flesh instinctively contracted the muscles to stop the bleeding, otherwise he would definitely bleed to death during the coma.

Not waiting for Priest to be happy because of his decisive move to successfully block the blow of the legendary alien being and save the lives of himself and the entire team, he looked around and found that the current situation is really true. Bad in the sense.

Because their entire team was seriously injured and could hardly move.

The knight at the front has withstood the heaviest impact. He is now lying on top of the airbag that is slowly deflated. There is no trace of vibration in his body, while the head of the priest on the other side has been crushed at the same time. Half, if it weren't for the fact that there were still some traces of the holy light swimming on his body, proving that he barely maintained his will to exist with his superb spiritual cultivation, anyone would think that he was completely dead.

The mage supporting the shield still has a little consciousness now, but he is spitting out bright red blood, obviously because of the magic backlash caused by the collapse of the magic shield, and the internal organs are seriously damaged. For Ster and the alchemist, one is because the warrior has a tough physique and is less impacted, so the damage is not hit, and the other is because they have undergone many transformations of magical creatures, and their physique is actually non-human, so they are currently in good condition.

Pieces of thick black smoke are rising from the bottom of the off-road vehicle. The magic engine that has completely stopped has been completely damaged, so there is no need to worry about its explosion. Before Priest ordered, the only alchemist in good condition has already stood up He got up and hurried to the front row to detect the situation of the two people in the front row.

"Ahem—how are the two of them doing?"

Priest concentrated his attention and forcibly closed the nerve perception at the wound on his arm with grudge. He gritted his teeth and said, "Are you still alive?"

"...the knight is dead."

In the front row, after detecting the knight's heartbeat and brain operation, the alchemist showed an indescribably sad expression, and he whispered: "The priest is still alive - but he is not far from death, to be honest, He died a long time ago, a few minutes earlier than the knight, but he survived for a while longer with the magic of 'Last Words'."

The five members of the exploration team have been training together for more than a year. Together they survived on deserted islands and conducted inhuman hell training. They went deep into desperate situations one by one and successfully completed all practical tasks. The relationship between the five people seemed normal. In fact, everyone can give their backs to each other without a doubt, just like Priest's mere words can make the whole team fight with him without hesitation.

While speaking, although the alchemist's tone was low, he didn't continue to stay beside the companion who was confirmed to be dead—he hurried to the center of the car, beside the mage who was still alive, and then pulled out a few pieces from his body as quickly as possible. Root healing potion, injected into the mage's body. The timely replenishment of vitality immediately made the pale caster, who seemed to die at any time, turn rosy for a moment, then he rolled his eyes, and passed the shock with complete relief.

If the mage hadn't propped up the final anti-shock shield, then even if Priest's induced power of inheritance blocked the whipping of the black mist tentacles, everyone would have died in the high-speed collision between the speeding car and the ground, some kind of In a sense, he is also the hero who saved everyone.

The alchemist seemed to want to go back to the back row and treat the terrible wound on his captain's arm, but suddenly, Priest remembered something, he shook his head vigorously, and refused the help of the other party. Priest said in a deep voice: "Don't waste time—have you forgotten to restore the beam of light and the 'Soul Abyss Ball'?! Take it out quickly!"

Hearing this, the alchemist who had already taken out a tube of light green recovery potion and was about to inject Priest was at a loss for a moment, and then his complexion changed rapidly, as if he had touched the last straw in surprise—he Immediately took out a few small balls with black and red patterns on a silver background from the storage compartment behind his magic armor, and then quickly ran to the side of the knight in the front row, using his own magic power to activate this ordinary soul deep ball'.

After being activated, the metal ball painted with the black and red '?' symbol suddenly transformed into a translucent form, and countless rays of light could be seen emerging from the knight's body. Following a certain call, he submerged into the soul ball. And just after all the rays of light that formed the human form completely entered the ball, the soul ball also returned to the original image of the metal ball, but the silver background color turned into a blood-like crimson.

At this moment, the clergyman also stopped his last breath, and the alchemist hurriedly activated another soul ball, and the metal ball also absorbed the entity formed by the light—that is, the visualized soul into his body, But this time the background color of the change is pale gold.

After finishing storing the souls of his companions, the alchemist with trembling hands came to Priest's side. He had no strength to speak, so he could only turn his head and instruct the other party to take out a silver cylindrical repair light beam from his storage bin. Fortunately, the physique of the alchemist is better than that of the cleric and the mage, because the transformation of the organ of the monster was not seriously injured in the impact, so he can still afford this terrifying cylinder that weighs several tons, otherwise, he might not be able to name one If it is not stable, the exploration team will have another seriously injured person.

"Wisdom never dies, order lasts forever!"

Saying the secret language aloud, the alchemist looked around nervously, and then placed the restoration beam of light on the flat ground, while Priest sat on the seat, waiting patiently for its activation countdown... originally it was only a moment of three At this moment, the minutes seemed to be extended countless times, and the only two people in the entire exploration team who were still conscious watched their surroundings vigilantly, praying that no enemies would appear.

But some scholars once summed up a theorem, that is, in this damn multiverse, no matter what bad things happen, as long as it is possible, it will definitely happen.

"Zizizi..."

Accompanied by the sound of a slight electromagnetic surge, Priest and the alchemist noticed at the same time that there were rustling sounds from all directions—soon, there were countless strange shapes, as if they were assembled by several poorly geometric figures. The weird mechanical body appeared in front of them like this.

That was the semi-automatic machine temporarily created by Black Mist when fleeing to monitor this dangerous planet. But now, they encountered the exploration team at the highest position of the cleaning target.

"Zi, buzz!"

A grotesque geometry let out an ear-piercing hiss, and it shot a beam of light in the direction of the two people who showed determination and death—and in the next moment, countless geometric machines followed the guidance of the beam of light, rushing toward Follow Priest and the two of them.

Tens of thousands of grotesque machines flew towards the exploration team, like a wave of silver-gray metal, they surrounded from all directions, blocking all possibility of escape, no matter how they tried to escape, they would definitely be blocked.

"It seems that a battle is still inevitable."

Priest stood up with strength. Although he lost two hands, he still had two feet. Without fists, he could still kick—even if his legs were severed and only his head and teeth remained, Priest Ster still wouldn't give up. He sneered at these low-level derived machines, or the original family members of the black mist: "All go to battle, leaving no spare power, exactly the same as that black mist."

On the other side, the alchemist said in a low voice: "Captain, you run with the mage, and I'll cut the back for you."

As he said that, he took out several bottles of potions of different colors from the potion on his waist, but the magic power fluctuated extremely violently. The alchemist did not hesitate, so he lifted the translucent mask on the helmet, and directly took all the potions together with the test tubes. It was stuffed into the mouth, and then crushed in one bite. The sharp glass couldn't pierce the tough mouth of the transcendent. They merged with each other, and the magic potions that reacted with each other were swallowed by the alchemist.

These potions are of no use to Priest and others. In essence, they are a catalyst that can activate a large number of monster organs transplanted in the alchemist's body at full power, providing him with a level far beyond his own. Power—but as a price, his body will be completely converted and devoured by the monster's organs, and finally even his soul will be overwhelmed by the violent flow of magic power, turning into a humanoid monster that lost its mind.

This is his last hole card and the biggest sacrifice he can make.

In front of you, countless geometrical machines are rushing towards them, and they become mighty enough to occupy the entire plain in just a few minutes, and outside the sky of World No. 1, in the dark depths of the universe, there is also a discreet And the icy will watched all members of the exploration team. It doesn't know what is it that can erupt that terrifying force and completely wipe out its theoretically indestructible tentacles, so it would rather hide in the depths of the darkness, waiting for the time to come.

But in such a desperate situation, the three-minute start time has not yet completed the countdown.

The silver beam of light that was slowly unlocking suddenly soared into the air, and it revived rapidly in mid-air. Even though such a recovery would cause irreversible damage to the entire body of the beam of light, it still accelerated without hesitation, and then sent out an alarm that made Pu The shocked voices of Rist and the alchemist.

"Repair the self-activation of the built-in system of the beam of light, and conduct emergency protocol verification... Detect the life signs of the members of the exploration team, two people have died, and the souls are well preserved-the verification is passed, meeting the 'extreme crisis' danger standard, and the implementation of the crisis trusteeship agreement is started."

"Allow the material devouring system to go online, allow unlimited self-replication and repair, allow the activation of the gravity control weapon system, and allow the loading of the stellar furnace—"

As the emotionless voice reverberated in the atmosphere, most of the silver beams of light, which had collapsed due to the emergency activation, completely returned to their original state like a video tape played backwards, and the next moment, it immediately split into thousands of pieces The incomparably tiny beam of light rushed into the countless geometric machines, and was about to rush forward to fight. The alchemist, who was already a little delirious, suddenly felt that he had been punched heavily in the abdomen, and an invisible force swept over him. All over his body, he suppressed all the activated monster organs back to their original state, and he also spit out all the mixed medicine with a wow.

Then, accompanied by an uproar like a sea tide, in a short moment, all the mechanical bodies in front of Priest and the alchemist were eroded by the silver brilliance, even the ground where these mechanical bodies stood was no exception. They seemed to have lost gravity, and they all merged together and floated into the air. In just a few seconds, they formed an extremely magnificent, huge, and magnificent silver giant hand like a mountain.

"Searching for hostile targets... The search was successful."

The extremely cold voice echoed in the atmosphere. The giant hand aimed at the black mist hidden in the vacuum of the universe, and then clenched into fists in the opponent's 'shocked' stupor. In the next moment, the originally emotionless mechanical voice suddenly It became the deep and indifferent voice of a man.

"The battle begins."

Ask for a monthly pass at the beginning of next month!

There are so few chapters recently... Although I know that readers may not like this plot, I still bite the bullet and write it out.
