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

Under normal circumstances, the attack effect of this skill is just like that.

But these gear engineers were all standing close together, and their entire bodies were made of metal.

As is well known, metals are excellent conductors and have extremely strong conductivity to lightning.

The chain of lightning bolts that split from the Lightning Bone Spear did not dissipate after destroying the target.

On the contrary, it was because the surrounding gear engineers were so densely packed, and they were in close contact with each other through exposed gears and chains, forming a natural conductive network.

After penetrating the first target, the three remaining currents continued to propagate along the interlocking gear structure, leaping and conducting towards the engineers further away.

"Crackling... crackling!"

What followed was a chain reaction.

A gear-wielding sapper was struck by the conducted electric current, and its gear meshed with the sapper next to it. The current continued to be transmitted to the next sapper through the gap between the meshing teeth.

And then the next one...

Like dominoes, all the gear engineers were affected by the electric current.

After being subjected to powerful electric shocks, they fell apart one by one, contributing their own experience points.

"hehe,"

"That's it?"

Sean's lips curled up slightly.

He hadn't expected that the chain reaction of the Lightning Bone Spear would be amplified to this extent in such a dense metal environment.

He was clearly very restrained by this monster.

"Then you won't be polite."

Now that he knew about this "hidden feature," he naturally wouldn't let go of such an efficient opportunity to clear the field.

Sean once again dispatched the Mechanical Blade Demon.

However, this time it's not for fighting, but to attract monsters.

Use the mechanical blade magic to lure the monsters toward Sean's location.

Then unleash a barrage of Lightning Bone Spear attacks.

In his hands, one after another, skeletal spears enveloped in unstable lightning were condensed and then thrown out, like a tireless long-range artillery platform.

"Boom!"

"Crack!"

Each lightning-fast bone spear that landed among the pursuers caused massive damage.

Blue and white lightning bolts leaped and conducted wildly through the dense metal formation, knocking down one monster after another.

The denser their formation, the higher their transmission efficiency; the faster their pursuit speed, the faster they are affected.

This time, Sean sent out knight mechanical blade demons, all of whom were skilled in speed.

They always maintained just the right distance from the monsters behind them—neither letting the pursuers lose sight of them nor letting themselves be caught.

They led the gear-like monsters in circles around the plaza, sending wave after wave of enemies into Sean's firing range.

Soon all the gear-type monsters in the square were slaughtered, leaving only corpses and dropped items.

Sean shook his wrist, feeling the still abundant energy reserves within him, and nodded in satisfaction.

This "kite-flying" style of play finally allowed him to experience the joy of playing games again.

"How nostalgic! It seems these gear-type monsters really aren't very intelligent."

With Sean's energy reserves, he wouldn't have been able to sustain this for so long.

However, in addition to providing him with three active skills, the Elite Blade Wizard Remains also offer passive skills.

Life siphon is one of them.

Life Drain: When your spells hit, steal 1% of the target's current health and convert it into your own energy. If the target's health is below 5%, it deals an additional 3% of their maximum health as true damage.

The energy consumed by casting a skill is less than what can be recovered through life siphon.

"This way, I can practically have unlimited firepower when facing a large number of low-level enemies."

Sean quickly assessed the tactical value of this passive skill.

"The remains of an elite bladed sorcerer... that's quite a surprise."

He said in a low voice.

He was growing increasingly fond of the remains of the elite bladed sorcerer.

Fortunately, he chose to rescue Long Dai at that time.

Otherwise, he would have completely missed out on this top-tier monster's remains.

"Long Dai and the others should have returned to Settlement Thirteen by now, right?"

Looking back on the time when he refused to exchange contact information with Long Dai, he regretted it more and more.

She's a top-tier beauty, what's wrong with giving her contact information?

Even if he didn't want to reveal too many of his secrets at the time, it would have been perfectly reasonable for him to add a contact method and maintain basic communication.

Although he was preparing to head to Settlement Number Three, Settlement Number Thirteen was his true home.

He'll come back sooner or later.

"Sigh... Role-playing is a killer."

He shook his head and sighed helplessly.

If it weren't for maintaining the aloof image of a B-level boss, he wouldn't have acted so irrationally.

"When I go back and meet Long Dai, I'll find a way to get her contact information!"

A woman with such a broad mind as her wouldn't hold a grudge or harbor resentment just because she was rejected, would she?

"It's definitely not that bad."

"I'm so popular with women..."

"If we have the chance... we should also try to get our hands on Long Dai's mechanic abilities."

Sean was quite envious of Long Dai's ability to create Gundam models by hand.

Whether it's strong or not is not important.

The key point is that he's really handsome.

Which man doesn't dream of owning a Gundam?

"Of course...we'll talk about it later."

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

After quickly cleaning up the battlefield and picking up a few pieces of equipment, Sean passed through the square.

He was too lazy to bend down and collect ordinary equipment and items.

With limited storage space, he could only take what was truly valuable.

As he walked, he habitually glanced at the changes in his experience bar, then raised an eyebrow slightly.

"This battle has given me over a million experience points."

This efficiency is worlds apart from grinding those monsters whose levels are suppressed in the Silver Plains.

"That's a remarkably high rate of experience gain."

Sean couldn't help but admire it in his heart.

The battle, from start to finish, only lasted three to five minutes.

Gaining a million experience points in just three to five minutes is already quite astonishing.

"If it can always be this enjoyable, then the 100 million experience point shortfall isn't a big deal."

Sean felt a little more at ease.

What he fears most is not the high experience point requirement, but the low monster-killing efficiency and meager rewards.

If it really takes him several months to level up to level 31.

Sean felt he was probably going crazy.

He's not the kind of person who can patiently do repetitive work day after day.

He pursues efficiency, a fast pace, and a growth experience that constantly brings new challenges and new gains.

He looked away and turned his attention back to what was ahead.

Beyond the square lies a deeper, more secluded passageway, from which the faint rumble of gears can be heard.

"I wonder what awaits me there?"

Sean muttered to himself, but there was no fear in his eyes; instead, his eyes gleamed with excitement.
