Outer Gods invade, stuff them all into your equipment inventory.

Sean approached the steel slime step by step.

With his current attributes, the maximum range for activating the Impact skill is thirty meters.

"However, to achieve the best effect, the launch distance should be between fifteen and twenty meters."

The distance was too close, preventing him from increasing his speed to the burst threshold achievable by the skill.

If the distance is too far, the kinetic energy will decrease during the charge and it is likely to alert the target.

Only a distance of 15 to 20 meters is the perfect balance point for the skill to be effective.

"Let's launch the attack from a position twenty meters away!"

Sean made a decision instantly.

He finally stopped, stopping precisely on a relatively flat piece of ground about twenty meters away from the steel slime.

Sean's eyes were sharp as he locked onto the center of the target's unsuspecting steel slime.

"Now!"

"Impact!"

The impact skill is activated instantly!

Under the effect of the skill, Sean's leg muscles contracted suddenly as if they were exploding, and all his strength burst forth at once!

His charging speed was so fast it was almost like teleportation; the twenty-meter distance was covered in the blink of an eye before he vanished instantly.

The ground beneath his feet cracked and dented with each step he took.

Sean's body crashed straight into the steel slime twenty meters away, but when he used his skill, he made a small change.

He did not choose to foolishly use his body to crash into the steel slime as in the original skill process.

Instead, at the very last moment when the charge reached its peak speed, it used all the kinetic energy carried by the charge to swing the slime hammer that it had been holding tightly in both hands and was ready to strike.

boom!!!!

An indescribable, terrifying roar, mixed with the crackling of metal, suddenly exploded in the underground space!

The accumulated, violent kinetic energy, combined with Sean's 54 points of brute strength.

The "Slime Hammer," which he had been gripping tightly in both hands and had been holding in front of him, slammed solidly into the body of the steel slime.

The unsuspecting steel slime's body suddenly deformed upon impact.

Centered on the point where the hammer fell, a huge dent with a diameter of more than half a meter was instantly created in the center of the steel slime's body.

The numerous metal particles that make up its body were forcibly shattered and scattered under this absolute violence that exceeded its tolerance limit.

Countless metal particles scattered and spewed across the sky.

The terrifying impact sent the massive, over thirty-ton steel slime flying off the metal vein where it was lying!

It tumbled and dragged along a trail of falling metal fragments, arcing through the air before crashing heavily onto the cave floor a dozen meters away, producing a deafening metallic clang.

"Well done!"

Sean was very satisfied with the success of his sneak attack.

Even though he couldn't see the Steel Slime's health bar, he knew that the damage he had dealt would definitely not be low.

At least a quarter of the metallic material was forcibly blasted away and stripped from the steel slime's body.

As far as the eye could see, the once perfectly round body of the steel slime now had a shockingly large dent in the center.

Along the trajectory where it was knocked away, and around the spot where it initially lay, there were splattered particles that shimmered with a metallic sheen.

If the opponent were not a slime, but an ordinary monster, these severe injuries alone would be enough to kill it instantly.

"Then...strike while the iron is hot and kill it!"

"Take another hit from my hammer!"

Without pausing, Sean pursued the attack as soon as the [Impact] skill ended, swinging the Slime Hammer that had just performed such a great service with both hands and slamming it down heavily on the roaring metal behemoth.

"Eighty hammers!"

The heavy hammerhead tore through the air with the force of wind and thunder, aiming at the steel slime's most vulnerable and dented area, which had not yet recovered from the heavy blow, and smashed down once again!

"boom!"

Once again, a large number of metal particles exploded and splashed out radially from the point of impact!

Before the mutated steel slime could react, its body was once again violently shaken by this heavy blow.

The deformation of the Steel Slime's body intensified once again, and the indented part of the wound expanded further.

"eighty!"

"eighty!"

"eighty!"

From the very beginning, the battle completely fell into Sean's rhythm, presenting a one-sided crushing situation!

The mutated steel slime is certainly not weak; even a D-rank hero cannot withstand a single impact from it.

However, thanks to the advantage gained from the perfect first strike, Sean gave the mutant no chance to breathe.

He was like a tireless blacksmith, and also like a strict father; the steel slime was his disobedient eldest son.

Facing the sluggish and severely damaged steel slime, Sean's "Slime Hammer" transformed into a continuous stream of heavy hammer shadows, smashing down again and again.

Show no mercy.

Continuous.

"Bang!"

"boom!"

"clang!"

The sounds of metal clashing, particles flying, and steel slimes roaring filled the air.

In addition, the Slime Hammer's built-in Gel Burst Strike skill will occasionally erupt.

Each time the gel explodes with a powerful impact, it creates a series of shockwaves.

This form of attack, called oscillation, is particularly effective against the body of steel slime, a non-Newtonian fluid semi-solid structure.

It can be said that its attack effect is excellent.

Each eruption is like igniting a small shock bomb inside its body.

The bomb explosion further undermined the stability of the steel slime's body structure from the inside.

More and more cracks are forming inside the steel slime, causing the metal particles inside it to continuously lose their activity.

Under the relentless onslaught of physical blows and energy shocks, the Steel Slime finally lost all its vitality.

Its body visibly emaciated and disintegrated, rapidly shrinking and deforming from a metallic droplet over two meters in diameter, until finally...

"Snap—Splash!"

With the final hammer blow, the already cracked and mangled body of the Steel Slime finally reached its limit.

The steel slime, like a sandcastle that had been crushed, suddenly disintegrated, turning into a large pool of inactive "metallic pebbles" of varying sizes, scattered across the ground.

"Finally killed him!"

"it's over!"

Sean let out a long sigh of relief.

Although he fought quite smoothly just now, it was actually very dangerous.

"This mutated Iron Slime can indeed absorb metallic substances to restore its body."

During the battle, the Steel Slime continuously absorbed metallic minerals from underground veins, converging and fusing them towards its wounds in an attempt to repair the dents and cracks.

If Sean's attack frequency hadn't been high enough and his destructive power not strong enough, the damage he caused would have far exceeded the Iron Slime's repair speed.

This battle is likely to turn into a tough war of attrition.

Once it catches its breath and absorbs enough metal to recover, the outcome will still be uncertain.
