Star Forge Titan

"Hey, hey, hey, is this the time to praise each other?" Kayang's angry voice came from above his head.

"It's okay. Praising and respecting your enemies isn't necessarily stupid. As long as you say those nice words..."

The black-haired boy moved his shoulders with ease, then grasped the magic ring on his ring finger and rotated it slightly.

"Win cleanly!"

With a shout full of fighting spirit, Sayid, who had just completed the battle mode switch after fusing with the vehicle, saw a huge object suddenly appear in front of him that was getting bigger and bigger.

Iron fist!

Chapter 142: Three Punches to Subdue the Demon

It took almost an instant for the Demon Engine to swallow up Selder and complete the transformation.

And it only took one punch for Alvin to send the demon engine flying into the sky.

The demon engine, after completing its transformation, is over three meters tall and looks like a headless monster. The metal shell that originally disguised its demonic nature has become something close to armor.

However, this demonic engine seemed to have not yet fully evolved, or perhaps was still incomplete, so the armor did not cover all areas. The exposed internal structures showed a naked distortion, and the metal and machinery could be seen wrapped and entangled in tangled red flesh.

Organic and inorganic matter are mixed together in an extremely distorted way, appearing very strange and unnatural.

The body and front hood form the torso of this twisted monster. The metal exterior contains a bloody mouth covered with sharp teeth that occupies almost one-third of the body. Coupled with its abnormal shape without a head, it seems as if its entire body is a huge head.

The magic engine that had moved to the back emitted a sharp sound like the roar of a wild beast, and the thick exhaust pipe that pointed vertically upward also spewed out puffs of smoke.

The joints of the limbs with claws at the end are not made of flesh and blood, but are mechanical parts composed of various metal parts such as gears and pipes.

From time to time, one or two streams of purple smoke leaked out from the gaps between the mechanical joints. That was the poisonous gas from Sayld's own super spirit - the smoke of plague and death.

The poisonous magic smoke controlled by him has flowed through the pipes throughout the entire body of the demon engine, increasing its operating power while also making the demon engine more lethal due to the poison surrounding it.

In fact, the most terrifying thing about this demon engine is not its power to tear the human body apart, nor its sharp fangs or sharp claws, but the terrible poisonous smoke released by the soul power.

Sayid's soul ability, 'Smoke of Plague and Death', not only has the same harmful effects on the body as ordinary poison gas, but it also has a more terrifying infectious ability.

In the smoke, the invisible curse formed by Sayld's own twisted magic can transform the magic of those who come into contact with it into more poisonous smoke and spread it until all life in a large area is infected and withered by the plague.

The appearance of such a terrifying killing machine on the battlefield means unstoppable bloodshed and an even more terrifying plague.

This is the tremendous destructive power of the combination of high-level transcendents and war weapons.

However, with Alvin's vision that was ahead of his time, he felt that this demon engine was like a large, unfinished toy that had just come out of the laboratory, and several design errors could be easily found.

If nothing else, its armor still maintains the comprehensive protection concept from the era of cold weapons. Perhaps due to the engine's limited output power, the external armor, mainly used as a camouflage shell, does not cover the entire demon engine, but it can still be seen that the manufacturer has worked hard to expand the armor's coverage area.

If it were Alvin, under limited conditions, he would directly choose to focus on defense.

Just like now when I take off my disguise...

Alvin, who has completely transformed back to his true appearance after undergoing the Death Angel's ritual, stands tall on the earth.

The shirt of the coat, which was exquisite but not a magical piece of equipment, was torn into pieces. The surface of the tall body over two meters was filled with streamlined and perfect muscles that combined strength and beauty.

Then, light like a leaping arc of electricity instantly enveloped the entire body of the Titan descendant, who looked as strong as a demigod but was still a teenager.

The original magic roared and transformed into the dark golden light of [Reshaping the World]. The broken rocks were directly reorganized into metal by the powerful talent from the Titans, and then shaped into a set of half armor.

Unlike ordinary half-body armor that is mainly used to protect the torso, this set of armor also completely covers the right arm under thick metal armor. The irregular armor structure with three extra rivets on the shoulder armor reveals a unique beauty.

After moving his five fingers that were completely wrapped in metal armor, Alvin stretched his clenched fist to the side and back to its limit without any thought.

At the same time, the rage of the barbarian from the northern ice field caused his muscles to swell again, and the blue blood vessels on the surface of his skin bulged. His extraordinary divine power, which was already capable of wrestling with a dragon, directly entered the perfect realm after a single attribute exceeded thirty points.

In an instant, he moved.

The ground beneath his feet suddenly cracked as if struck by thunder, and Ivan's tall figure disappeared from the spot even before the rubble burst out.

After hastily merging with the demon engine and attaching all his super-spiritual powers to it, Sayld just came to his senses and tried to lock onto the enemy with his magic sense, but he found that the opponent's iron fist was right against him.

boom!

The unmatched steel fist struck the bloody mouth in the middle of the demon engine's torso from bottom to top.

Sharp teeth flew freely into the sky like scattered fireworks, and blood mixed with the poisonous smoke sprayed out by the ruptured pipe scattered everywhere, but Alvin was not affected by the poisonous gas at all.

The three artificial lungs created by the Death Angel's ritual and the greatly enhanced detoxification ability made him completely fearless of ordinary poison gas.

The infection of the smoke of the plague on magic, the violent primitive magic in the body of the Titan blood, with the violent momentum like a mad dragon, directly tore the twisted curse contained in the poison gas into the most basic magic factors and devoured it completely!

At this moment, the poison gas generated by Selde, a third-level mage, using his soul power was completely not enough for Alvin!

"No... Impossible!" Selde, whose mind could not keep up with Ivan's attack, made a sound of disbelief at the scene before him in the demon engine.

The heavy demon engine, along with the driver inside it, was knocked off the ground by this punch.

Before it landed, Alvin threw a second punch.

This time, it was a straight punch with a power comparable to that of a tank gun. The collision of metal armor and metal armor made a loud sound, and even faster than the sound was the huge figure of the Demon Engine flying backwards.

Boom! With a silent sound, the demon engine knocked a ten-meter-diameter dent into the outer wall of a distant building.

Boom, boom! ! !

The terrible impact that followed caused the entire wall and half of the building to collapse in an instant!

The crying of babies, the cursing of men, the muttering of old people, all kinds of sounds followed.

The sudden loud noise immediately brought the originally silent downtown area back to life.

Alvin raised his eyebrows and decided to resolve the matter as soon as possible.

Then, the young and strong Titan descendant raised his arms, which were as strong and powerful as cast metal, for the third time.

His movements were smooth and effortless, without any rush. The mage's unique use of the demon engine had given him a lot of inspiration, and he even planned to use it when building a new magic car.

You have a good idea, now it’s mine!

As a token of gratitude, this third strike will also be the final strike!

Looking down at the demon engine lying in the brick and stone rubble, Alvin jumped up and turned his armor-covered right fist into a thunder of punishment that fell from the sky.

The demon-killing golden light in the boy's eyes shone like molten gold, dragging a straight path of light behind him.

The steel fist fell, and the earth trembled!

The ground exploded three times in a row, creating ever-expanding craters. The flesh and blood on the Demon Engine splattered in all directions like water brushed off with a wet towel.

In an instant, all that was left was a cracking white skeleton and the equally shattered Selde inside it.

The madness in the wizard's eyes has now turned into solidified turbidity.

His deformed body was in tatters, and his twisted soul seemed to be extinguished by this punch, like a candle in the wind!

Chapter 143: Acts of Heroes

"Why did you just beat this guy to death?"

Magic chains hung from the roof, and Khayon grasped the folding knife staff connected to the chain at one end and swung down flexibly.

He was like a big bat with a side-parted hair. He moved silently without making any sound, and only asked a slightly puzzled question when he landed behind Ivan.

"This person's abilities are very dangerous, so it's best to deal with him as soon as possible."

Not paying attention to the necromancer's ability to move at the same level as a rogue, Alvin frowned and stared at the corpse of the enemy in front of him, speaking concisely.

His rich combat experience allowed him to predict Sayid's spiritual power when he first came into contact with the poison gas.

Generally speaking, this ability to attack or weaken an enemy's soul with a deadly poison often has characteristics such as a very large range of influence. Conversely, it may have a more troublesome characteristic, such as instantly killing the poisoned person once the fixed countdown reaches zero.

Taking the above reasons into consideration, Alvin responded immediately. He chose to use the fastest method to eliminate the threat from the source, eradicating and eliminating it in every sense.

However, although he successfully stopped the enemy's actions, that highly contagious ability made him feel inexplicably familiar.

Alvin vaguely felt that he must have encountered similar or close soul abilities in a plot event he had experienced in the past game.

But the black-haired boy stood there and thought carefully for a moment. Even though he quickly sorted out several major villains that appeared in the early plot in his mind, he did not find any one with the same ability as Sayid.

Unable to think of a reason for the time being, Alvin had no choice but to put the matter aside for the time being.

"What should we do next?" Kayon asked:

"Leave as soon as possible. Although the followers of Narvus don't appear in large groups like the followers of a certain war maniac, if they intend to attack all the contestants at the same time, then the actions near Lutetia are definitely not just small-scale actions of a few people." Alvin made a prompt decision.

Hearing his words, Ka Yang thought for a moment, and immediately realized with his talent as a traitor how great the danger this meant.

Although it is still unclear what the true purpose of the followers of Nurul is, it seems that they have set their sights on the Youth Magic Car Competition.

In other words, the biggest change in the situation that will soon take place in the world of Palladia will be a direct or indirect conflict between the cultists who believe in Narvus and the Central Empire of Lind.

Although the former is loosely organized, each member is like a werewolf walking among the crowd with a hidden identity, and may cause great harm to ordinary people around them at any time, not to mention that the master standing behind them has terrible power beyond the imagination of mortals.

Linde, a millennium-old nation in the Central Empire, boasts several fourth-tier individuals whose combat power rivals that of an army, and even fifth-tier transcendents within its ranks. Furthermore, belief in the true gods and their corresponding temple organizations are a significant asset to Linde's rulers.

Standing between these two behemoths, the best option for ordinary people is not to make themselves too conspicuous.

"It seems you understand." The black-haired boy raised his eyebrows and said that he had seen some clues from the expression on Khayang's face.

He didn't even check the enemy's bodies. Anyway, most of the equipment on the cultists had special requirements or were simply blasphemous weapons. After getting back into the rented magic car, Ivan immediately started the engine and prepared to leave this dangerous place as quickly as possible.

The necromancer did not respond directly to his companion's words, but casually mentioned a Palladian proverb with game theory implications.

"If the eldest and second sons of a noble family are fighting for the right of inheritance, the first one to die unexpectedly is often the third son, who is the weakest and does not know how to conceal his existence." As he spoke, Khayon deliberately emphasized the word "accidentally".

"Not to mention, the vast majority of people involved in this matter aren't even considered third sons. So don't expect to be able to wait for the eldest and second sons to perish together, and then you, as the survivor, can reap the benefits."

"You have to know that in the end, the most likely outcome of this kind of situation is that the eldest son and the second son will clash violently for dozens of rounds, and then everyone else will die."

"Clear judgment." Alvin praised without reservation and drove away from the scene quickly.

Not long after they left, a tall figure emerged from the darkness like a shadow. The thin moonlight was completely unable to illuminate his appearance, making the figure of the person seem as elusive as a ghost.

"Ah, my brother, it seems you have left me."

Staring at the broken body of Seld on the ground, the man sighed in a beautiful voice like a chant, neither sad nor happy. This name immediately revealed that he was Seld, the youngest of the three brothers.

"Dear second brother, you are just like my eldest brother. Whether it is the path of magic or the way of the warrior, you both have enviable talents in your respective pursuits."

"As the third son, I have nothing to be proud of except a face that's good at deceiving people."

As he spoke, like a vulture landing beside the corpse of an antelope, the man bent down and knelt beside Selder, and three blood-red demonic eyes that were almost identical to the latter's lit up on his shadowed face.

"Fortunately, the situation is different now. In the name of the loving Holy Father, as you all fall into the abyss of death, let us once again be one, as we were in our mother's womb... one!"

In an instant, the last ray of light in the night disappeared, as if the moon had hidden behind the clouds because of these blasphemous words.

Then, in the darkness, there was the chilling sound of flesh being torn and swallowed.

At the same time, in the magic taxi that had already left the area, Ka Yang suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, didn't you mention earlier that the nobleman whose life you saved, in addition to the things he gave as a thank you, also promised to give you a valuable gift after you qualified for the tournament? Regarding this, have you decided what you want?"

The necromancer, whose hair was finally no longer a bird's nest after using two kilograms of hair wax, rubbed his fingers in a mercenary manner.

"Of course, I don't have any other intentions. I just hope you can take me with you when you enter the treasure house. I don't have any other thoughts, I just want to broaden my horizons."

"Really?" Ivan raised his voice, with a half-smile on his face.

"Ahahaha." A certain necromancer who had received rogue training laughed dryly, but his expression was not at all embarrassed.

"I've already thought of the things." While driving, Alvin recalled the key materials needed to be promoted to the Ash Knight.

One of them is called Burning Dust, which is a magic potion dust made from the flesh and blood of magical beasts with a certain degree of self-regeneration ability.

According to ancient texts, the higher the regeneration ability of the magical beast used as the material, the higher the probability of successful promotion, and the greater the enhancement received by the recipient. Of course, this also means that the corresponding materials are more difficult to obtain.

Although there weren't many magical beasts with regenerative abilities, they weren't on the verge of extinction. However, the current Transcendental Ascension Ceremony often used various alchemical potions instead of raw potions and ingredients.

As a result, ancient materials like this often become increasingly rare due to a smaller audience, which indirectly increases the threshold for obtaining them.

Despite this, families with a long history usually keep some in their treasure houses. After all, they are wealthy and powerful, and in every era they will collect various popular promotion materials as strategic reserves.

Over time, you will naturally retain some of the various materials.

Alvin happened to know that in the secret treasure house of the Carolingian royal family, there was a material that perfectly met his requirements.

That was a precious relic left to future generations by the powerful man who was the first to defeat all the extraordinary forces in Linde, the Central Empire, through a duel of truth a thousand years ago and was the first to be named the Magic Emperor - the Phoenix Feather!

This golden monster that can burn itself out in flames and then be reborn from the ashes naturally has the most advanced regenerative ability, which is even close to the legendary absolutely forbidden magic - the reincarnation secret ritual.

As for why he, a stranger from another world, is more familiar with the inventory of his family's treasury than a certain salty fish emperor himself, the reason is naturally... It's inconvenient to elaborate~
