I materialized a sci-fi fortress in a magical world.

With the appearance of the giant metal cockroach, the guests in the stands who were willing to applaud Royo couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

"What the hell is this thing? It looks disgusting!"

"Why is this cockroach so big?"

"Go for it, #29! Don't lose to this disgusting monster."

Those who had been questioning him earlier were now gloating.

"It's completely disproportionate. If this guy doesn't surrender soon, he'll definitely be eaten."

"Huh? He actually dares to attack first? How ridiculous!"

"So why is this cockroach so big?"

Of course, some people are genuinely worried about Royo.

"Junior! Surrender already!"

"Can someone please answer me? Why is this cockroach so big?"

Luo Yue couldn't hear the noise; he was focused on casting a spell, constantly wielding the ritual knife in his hand, launching fireballs, wind blades, and ice spikes at the giant metal cockroach.

The giant cockroach was also constantly retaliating, its antennae sweeping wildly across the arena, raising large swaths of sand and gravel that rained down on Royo, creating ripples on his mana shield.

The pair of teeth in his mouth were also chewing incessantly, making a metallic grinding sound, as if he were chewing on Royo's bones.

however……

It didn't move an inch from beginning to end, maintaining a distance of more than two hundred meters from Luo Yue.

Because the moment this thing appeared, Royo focused his magic attack on its six relatively slender legs, breaking them first...

This thing is too big, it doesn't move as fast as a normal twin tail, and it can't fly. Its legs are as conspicuous as telephone poles. With the guidance of mental power, it's easy to destroy those joints, making it collapse at lightning speed as soon as it appears.

Unfortunately, they lack effective long-range attack methods, and once they lie down, they're like giant wooden stakes, completely at the mercy of others.

But this thing's vitality is commensurate with its massive size. It's difficult for Royo's first-tier magic to cause effective damage. He can only drink medicine while slowly hitting it.

Fortunately, its defenses weren't very strong. Each fireball could send up large shards of metal, and after a little patience, it gradually stopped exploding.

Luo Yue managed to win the match without any major incident.

But the cost was almost half of his magic power, which couldn't be recovered with just one potion.

"If the next ones are all these giant monsters, things will get complicated. Even if I can find another weakness like the wooden stake, I won't have enough magic power. Rather than continuing to waste potions, I should..."

Luo Yue considered whether to quit while he was ahead, but the tweezers-like figure in the audience seemed to have guessed his thoughts and spoke up sarcastically:

"He's scared! He's going to surrender!"

"This is the weakest of the war beasts. Don't you dare run! The next beast will tear you to shreds!"

"Tear it to pieces! Tear it to pieces!"

Luo Yue was already furious with these guys, and now that he heard these words, he decided to go all out.

Anyway, the medicine was all free, so I won't feel bad about drinking it. I'll deal with it after I've actually finished it.

Then, he went on to defeat the Metal Grasshopper, the Metal Longhorn Beetle, the Metal Spider, and the Metal Ladybug, pushing his winning streak to 24 games.

The strategy remains the same: first break their legs to restrict their mobility, then slowly kill them while they drink medicine.

Even so, they still faced several close calls.

For example, in the battle against the giant spider, this thing could actually launch a sneak attack by spraying venom from a distance. If it weren't for the help of the pocket watch artifact, which automatically activated a magic shield when he was about to be attacked, he would have been seriously injured.

The fight against the ladybugs was even more perilous, because those things can fly!

Even with its limbs broken, it would still flap its wings and swoop down at Royo in a way that defies the laws of physics.

Fortunately, he usually pays attention to physical training, so he reacted quickly and ran fast enough to narrowly avoid the ladybug just before it pounced on him. The ladybug crashed headfirst into the audience, knocking a large number of noisy spectators flying.

Luo Yue dared not slowly kill this thing, so he quickly made a fireball with one hand and squeezed the scroll with the other, using both methods to destroy its wings before it could take off a second time. Otherwise, if this ladybug, which was several meters tall, pounced on him again, it would be hard to say whether he could dodge it.

"Phew~ Only five potions left, and three scrolls. Should we play another round?"

Luo Yue once again wanted to stop while he was ahead, but he still let go of her hand.

"Although these metal insects are very large, their intelligence is clearly not as good as the tweezers people in front of us. The main problem with dealing with them is that they consume magic too quickly, but they are not too difficult to fight."

"This is still primarily a performance-based game, so I might as well stick with it a little longer. I still have my last trump card to use, so I might as well test the Hammerhead Shark puppet's combat power. Is it really at the sixth-tier level?"

So Royo decided to persevere a little longer.

But he soon regretted it...

In the 25th game, the opposing team probably couldn't afford to play anymore and sent out a clearly overpowered character—

Ding-ding Cat!

Anyone with even a basic understanding of insects knows just how incredible this thing is...

Especially when its body swells to over ten meters in length, yet it can still flutter up and down like a normal dragonfly...

The airflow generated by the flapping of its wings alone created gusts of wind that nearly blew Royo away.

The magic released by Royo was directly blown away by the wind pressure and couldn't get close at all.

It seemed to know that Luo Yue was no match for it, so it did not rush to attack. Instead, it hovered in mid-air, scrutinizing him with its huge metallic compound eyes, while its sharp, spiky limbs twitched slowly, as if examining this tiny prey.

Luo Yue knew that he had no choice but to use his trump card, so he activated his mental space without hesitation and reached out to the hammerhead shark doll.

But just then, he suddenly felt a gaze fall on him.

Then, his occult intuition kicked in, offering a somewhat unconventional suggestion.

Luo Yue loosened his grip and did not use the hammerhead shark puppet.

At the same time, a faint mist began to spread around the Colosseum, quickly enveloping it completely.

Even the wind pressure generated by the giant dragonfly's flapping couldn't dispel the fog, and its compound eyes couldn't detect its target.

So it simply swooped down, its massive body piercing through the fog, and spotted Luo Yue again, charging straight at him.

Almost instantly, it appeared before Royo as if it had teleported, its sharp mandibles nearly touching his face.

But at that moment, a huge figure appeared behind Luo Yue.

The next second, a huge metal fist shot out and slammed into the dragonfly's eye, sending its massive body flying backward.

"Hehe~ Now, it's my turn to drive."

As Luo Yue spoke, he rubbed his hands together excitedly.
