"Is Uncle Cheng about to break through?"

Sean had also been paying close attention to Cheng Jiyuan's changing demeanor.

If it weren't for helping Cheng Jiyuan break through, they should have already conquered this monster's lair an hour ago.

Sean's gratitude towards Cheng Jiyuan was genuine, which is why he was willing to spend so much time helping him tame the Silver Human Demon.

He could sense that Cheng Jiyuan's spiritual power was condensing at an astonishing speed and steadily climbing toward a certain critical point after he had successively "subdued" more than a dozen silver knights and established a deep connection with them.

"At most, adding one more beast will complete the breakthrough."

For a Beastmaster to advance from the peak of C-rank to the threshold of B-rank, they need a vast reserve of mental energy, as well as the "feedback" or "pressure" from establishing connections with numerous powerful Beastmasters.

It was this very force that compelled a qualitative change in his spiritual essence.

Cheng Jiyuan needs a beast that can put enough pressure on him right now.

Sean has already made the best choice for the last beast he tames.

"It's almost time."

"Speed ​​up."

His gaze drifted deeper into the lair, to the area where the final boss was hidden.

That should be a good "breakthrough point".

........................

Sean then suddenly sped up his strategy.

Upon encountering the Silver Knight, he no longer left the beast to Cheng Jiyuan for taming.

All the monsters they encountered were instantly killed by the mechanical blade demons in the most efficient and ruthless way.

When clearing the battlefield, he took the equipment he wanted and left no time for others to clean up.

Divide up the remaining items and move on immediately.

Sean could sense it as they slowly approached—the deepest part of the lair.

The energy fluctuations emanating from there were so intense and violent that something was likely awakening.

It's time to meet the "final boss" of this monster's lair and create the most suitable "breakthrough opportunity" for Cheng Jiyuan.

........................

Sean hadn't expected that the final boss of this monster lair, dominated by silver-human monsters, would be such a figure.

It was a colossal creature, about four meters tall, which exuded a suffocatingly heavy pressure even just by standing there.

It was a giant ancient suit of armor that had been given life.

The armor was extremely ancient in style, with bold lines, and it covered the body completely. The helmet was shaped like a ferocious beast's head.

The massive shoulder armor resembled two small fortresses, extending downwards into spiked arm guards.

What it held in its hand was not the sword or blade that Silver Warriors were used to, but a giant halberd that was almost as long as it was tall and had a domineering design.

The halberd shaft was as thick as the trunk of a large tree, and its entire body was black, also covered with patterns.

The halberd blade is wide and menacing, with a huge crescent-shaped curved blade on one side and a spearhead with three barbs on the other.

This enormous ancient armor stood silently in the center of the platform, with several thick conduits connected to its back, constantly pulsating with immense energy, as if drawing power from the entire lair.

When Sean and his companions stepped over the corpses of the Silver Human monsters scattered on the ground and reached the BOSS, an unexpected event occurred.

"Snap! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The several thick energy conduits connected to its back were snapped and broken by tremendous force.

A stream of scorching, high-pressure energy gushed from the fracture, emitting a piercing shriek.

The next moment, to the horror of Cheng Jiyuan and the others, the four-meter-tall metal behemoth moved.

"Bang—!!"

The four-meter-tall metal body crashed down like a cannonball onto the ground dozens of meters in front of Sean and his group.

The shockwave from the landing carried metal debris that had been ejected from the ground, spreading out in a ring.

The heavy weight created a noticeable dent in the ground.

The next moment, the grotesque giant halberd in its hand swept towards the mechanical blade demons guarding the front with a terrifying shriek!

This ancient armor possesses a terrifying agility and explosive power that belies its massive size.

"Clang!! Snap—!"

The mechanical blade demon that was first to be attacked tried to block with its weapon.

However, the moment it made contact with the giant halberd, its weapon suddenly shattered, and before the Blade Demon could even scream, its entire body was violently sent flying.

Its body flew in an arc like a cannonball, crashing heavily into the metal wall in the distance and creating a deep crater.

Besides it, three other mechanical blade demons were also knocked away, but their situation was relatively better.

The damage to the body surface was not so shocking, and the weapon was still intact.

They wobbled and struggled to their feet.

A single, simple sweeping attack resulted in Mechanical Blade Demon being severely injured and suffering three wounds!

This ancient armored boss displayed overwhelming power.

Cheng Jiyuan, Sun Shuo, and the others felt their scalps tingle and their breath almost stopped.

"That's way too strong!"

They knew all too well how powerful the Mechanical Blade Demon was.

Aside from lacking any special skills, he is perfect in every other aspect.

Especially in terms of basic attributes, it is in no way inferior to the vast majority of B-rank monsters.

But even such a mechanically sharp demon is like a child in front of this ancient armor.

This is a breathtaking, crushing defeat on a pure power level!

The attributes of this ancient armored BOSS have probably reached a level that they cannot fully comprehend.

"Even among B-rank monsters, this is probably considered top-tier, right?"

"Can Senior Kagami handle this?"

This "Mirror" senior's mechanical blade demon legion seems to have encountered a truly tough opponent for the first time.

Everyone's heart jumped into their throat.

All eyes were involuntarily drawn to the figure wearing a silver mask who remained calmly standing, seemingly unconcerned about the damage inflicted by the mechanical blade demon.

Sean didn't react at all, and even seemed a little absent-minded.

The mechanical blade demons charged toward the ancient armor one by one.

As summoned creatures, they have no concept of "fear".

Attacking is the only thing they can do.

They did not attempt to confront the terrifying halberd head-on, nor did they launch a scattered charge.

The remaining Blade Demons, with astonishing speed and coordination, quickly dispersed and launched a continuous barrage of attacks on the ancient armor from different angles and distances.

Wolf pack tactics.

This word instantly popped into the minds of Cheng Jiyuan and his group.

A group of summoned creatures were able to carry out wolf pack tactics without any command.

"These mechanical blade demons are too smart!"

They were skeptical that their team could execute wolf pack tactics so perfectly.
