Nobody told me this wasn't a game.

Anyone who sees that technological city floating 10,000 meters in the air for the first time will be amazed.

Mayumi has been living in the Sky City for almost a month, so she is naturally aware of the city's origins.

If you conquer Sky City using the normal methods, all you'll get are some magical materials.

If you're lucky enough, you might even get a skill stone that includes a specific skill type.

There is nothing else.

However, if you can find the "hidden mechanism" and unlock the "real storyline," you can get unexpected and extraordinary high rewards.

The core of Sky City is to help Dr. Electronics restart the power switch and allow digital life to shine again.

So……

Is there a core key to the battle for the top spot?

Based on Zuo Chang's experience, Mayumi believes that it is indeed true.

Moreover, the core of the Grand Wars is likely related to the "Last Hero".

If you want to get closer to the last hero, the "Hero's Sword" lost in Blood Mist Ridge is undoubtedly a reliable way.

Mayumi asked, "Does Father want you to lead us to find the 'Hero's Sword' first?"

“Oh? You don’t seem stupid. Yes, that’s exactly what General Tianwang ordered. Get in the carriage quickly, we must reach Blood Mist Ridge before the Transformation Demon. If that sword has an aura similar to mine, I can find it instantly.”

The demon of war urged him on, and he walked first to the carriage by the roadside.

Mayumi and Fukotsu followed closely. When they got closer, Mayumi couldn't help but ask, "This carriage... can it even move? It doesn't even have horses."

It's a good car.

The wheels were neatly arranged, the carriage was spacious, and there were reliefs on the walls, making it look very luxurious.

only--

Perhaps to prevent theft, there were no horses in front of the carriage.

Mayumi looked at the war demon: "You don't want me to drag you away, do you?"

"Hehehe... General's daughter, I am the devil of war, no one understands the importance of 'mobility' better than me!"

The shadowy figure laughed sinisterly, then suddenly vanished into the carriage.

In the next instant, the wooden carriage transformed and, in just a few breaths, became an armored personnel carrier!

"..."

"..."

Mayumi and Fukotsu were dumbfounded and neither of them said a word.

Passersby exclaimed in amazement and called out to their companions to come and watch.

Click.

The rear door of the troop carrier opened, and the voice of the War Demon echoed in Mayumi and Kazekotsu's hearts: "Come in! Possessing a non-living being requires a continuous drain on my magic, but I can transform the non-living being into another non-living being with 'similar functions.' This is a steel war machine from the superior community, and I particularly love the way it rampages through the city streets!"

I should be able to update normally tomorrow, I mean at noon.

Chapter 220 The parties involved expressed this view

A dark green armored personnel carrier, completely out of step with the times, races wildly across the wilderness.

Amidst the bumpy ride, Mayumi realized the car's exceptional performance, and she was captivated by the powerful roar of the engine.

"Humph……"

A soft, satisfied hum echoed in the carriage: "General's daughter, you seem to have come to appreciate the superior performance of this vehicle. I am pleased with it."

Mayumi wasn't going to give it a friendly look: "How does your vehicle compare to the mechanical lifeforms of Sky City?"

That's still not quite as good as it could be.

Putting everything else aside, that 'Giant Hammer Destroyer' patrolling the Grand Plaza of the Mystic Ritual is truly awesome...

But the devils of war are unwilling to acknowledge the gap.

Its "transformation technique" is limited; it must understand the structure of the object in order to perform transformations.

Not quite.

The war demon chuckled: "Corporal of integrity, you can speak boldly. I don't know if the general's daughter is willing to listen; but for me, listening to reports from frontline combat personnel is very important in war. It helps commanders grasp the true battlefield and thus lay the foundation for victory."

"Ok?"

Mayumi and Kazekotsu exchanged a glance, and she asked, "Is there no last hero?"

The corpse puppet walked to the car window and looked at the scenery outside.

However, after being developed by Zuo Chang, her maximum magical power was significantly increased.

Mayumi asked, "Sir, are you—Twain Mullen?"

Twain Mullen nodded: "No. I don't know why, when later generations talk about the final chapter of the Old Golden Empire, they would invent a hero... In stories where there might be demons, there has to be a hero, otherwise it's not exciting enough! Although that so-called last hero didn't bring victory in the story either."

He raised his face, his lifeless eyes looking at Feng Gu: "Incredible... Feng Hun seems to have a remarkable descendant. You, a mere seventh realm cultivator, actually summoned me?"

He continued, “At least, my companions and I wouldn’t have been so desperate in our resistance. We were fighting against the demons, and we were also fighting against our own despair—it will pass, it will get better, we comforted each other like that, and we died one by one. I was lucky, though, because I met Miss Wind Spirit before I died, and she has continued to this day in the form of a necromancer.”

Feng Gu frowned and said, "Senior...please control your emotions...my mana is not enough to support your anger, I can hardly breathe right now."

A pungent, acrid atmosphere spread throughout the area.

It hasn't seen the detailed design blueprints for the Giant Hammer Destroyer, nor has it ever disassembled and assembled it itself, so it can't be changed for the time being.

The corpse puppet raised its hand again, sensing the meager magical power that sustained its existence: "However, this level of magical power isn't enough for me to assist in the battle. What's your name?"

He smiled slightly and said, "Although I have long since died, I have learned about the aftermath of the Old Golden Empire through the words of its past masters. It was destroyed, wasn't it?"

It also seems like just an ordinary narration.

The twelfth realm corpse puppet had just appeared when it immediately uttered a questioning sound.

To be precise, she fell into deep thought after seeing the "memories" sent by the demons of war.

"Then I said..."

"??"

The Corpse Puppet of the Twelfth Realm!

……

Mayumi looked at her: "What's wrong?"

The corpse puppet turned its head and asked, "You know my name?"

Their integrity and character are the legacy of countless generations of ancestors.

Mayumi nodded: "Yes. Everything will pass away, and there's nothing to regret about that."

"So that's how it is... The gods turned my era into a competition..."

He exuded a cold and desolate aura, whether he was like this in life or after death was unknown.

Furthermore, the grandson of the elder Malone was in high spirits, radiating youthful energy, and his face was flawless.

It took a full half minute for his trembling eyes to calm down.

Throughout its journey, its integrity remained silent.

The corpse puppet in front of me looked to be in its thirties, but not quite forty.

The quality of magical power varies depending on the level of cultivation.

Inside the carriage, Twain Mullen nodded and muttered to himself.

Mullen's gaze was serene, as if he were expecting something or regretting something.

“As you know, my ‘Rebirth School’ is an inherited skill. I received it from my mother, and also from all the corpse puppets collected by my elders. Among them, there is a corpse puppet that looks very similar to that ‘Twain Mullen’…”

The necromancer is a special class, and the combat ability of the corpse puppets basically determines the strength of the necromancer.

The War Demon remained silent, but actively provided Feng Gu with magical power, alleviating her pain.

"I'm nothing but a necromancer puppet, your summoned creature. You don't need to be so polite to me." The necromancer looked at the cramped carriage. "Why did you call me out?"

The grandson of old Malen whom I saw in my "memory" was at most twenty-five years old.

"senior……"

"Hehe...that's true. But I always wonder, if a 'last hero' had actually appeared back then, would the ending have been different?"

Twain Mullen?

Feng Gu is currently only at the seventh realm, and logically speaking, her mana is insufficient to summon a corpse puppet at the twelfth realm.

this--

……

He let out a long breath and looked at Mayumi, saying, "I am Twain Mullen, the last 'human hero' of the old Golden Empire. Madam, please tell me about our current situation. I don't understand what we are going through. Why am I seeing Blood Mist Ridge again? Could it be... that after so many years, the 'Blood Mist Anomaly' has descended once more?"

She finally couldn't hold back any longer and blurted out, "Mayumi... and Mr. War Demon, there's something I'm not sure if I should mention."

Injecting weak magical power into a corpse puppet of the twelfth realm is like adding unrefined crude oil to a car's fuel tank; it will stall as soon as you start the engine.

The demon of war and the true bow both fell silent, and Feng Gu began her performance.

After a moment's consideration, Feng Gu decided to start from the beginning.

A scar on his face, clearly caused by a sharp weapon, stretched from under his left eye to his chin, even splitting his lips, making him look exceptionally grotesque.

Upon seeing the mountains shrouded in blood-red mist in the distance, his eyes widened, and he exclaimed in disbelief, "Blood Mist Ridge?! This is... could this be...?"

Corpse puppets themselves have no magic power; they need the Wind Bone to "infuse" them with energy.

Mayumi looked at the corpse puppet in front of her.

They look very alike; it's very likely the same person.

but……

A cry of pain came from behind.
