Chapter 144 The Aftermath of Fanaticism

Wang Lan's expression immediately turned suspicious. He had seen some descriptions of mechanical bodies in Sun Muchen's book.

It is a product made of various electronic components and metals such as gears, and its body is covered with sturdy iron sheets. It can move freely like a human or animal, and it is a very powerful technology.

But at this moment, he saw a mechanical wild boar.

Wang Lan looked utterly bewildered.

He raised the Vajra Umbrella and peeled off the mechanical boar's skin layer by layer, revealing a bloodstained mechanical boar before him.

The metal plate on the head was dented quite a bit by Wang Lan's heavy blow, and the metal plate had even cracked. Through the cracks, sparks could be seen flashing inside, and there was a crackling sound of electricity. After peeling off the skin, Wang Lan could clearly feel that the strange smell seemed to have become even stronger.

But Wang Lan searched the entire mechanical wild boar and still couldn't figure out where the scent was released.

However, Wang Lan now understood that the reason why killing this mechanical boar did not activate the Bloodthirst skill was because this mechanical boar was not a living being at all, but a mechanical being.

Wang Lan nodded to himself, understanding dawning on his mind.

The appearance of the mechanical wild boar represents a very powerful technological capability.

Judging from the battle just now and the series of reactions made by the mechanical boar, it can be seen that the mechanical boar is technologically advanced.

But who could have created this mechanical wild boar?

Although Wang Lan was never quite at ease with Hope Village, always feeling that it wasn't as simple as it seemed on the surface, based on what he had seen and felt, Hope Village's idea of ​​creating a mechanical wild boar was nothing short of a fantasy.

Or is it the so-called holy city?

That seems unlikely.

From Wang Lan's current position, the Holy City was no longer visible.

But Wang Lan remembered that the Holy City only had three floors, and judging from its size, it did not have the space to breed wild boars.

So where did this mechanical wild boar come from?

Could the beast invasion that Chen Bihua mentioned earlier also be some kind of mechanical entity?

Wang Lan suddenly felt that things were becoming increasingly absurd.

In the end.

Wang Lan sighed.

He was preparing to leave.

As time passed, the strange smell grew stronger and stronger. Wang Lan even felt a tightness in her chest and a faint burning sensation at the wound on her chest.

I don't know if it's related to this strange smell.

Wang Lan plunged the Vajra Umbrella into the black bear's collarbone and twisted it sharply, firmly embedding the umbrella within. This made it easier for Wang Lan to drag the black bear, since it was too large and carrying it back would be much more strenuous.

Wang Lan had initially considered taking the mechanical wild boar back with him, but upon closer inspection, he realized that the mechanical wild boar's origins were unknown, and its strange smell was elusive. If he rashly took it back, who knew what unpredictable things might happen? With that in mind, Wang Lan abandoned the idea of ​​taking the wild boar back and instead dragged the black bear back.

It seems we'll need to be more vigilant from now on!

This is what Wang Lan was thinking.

At the very least, we need to figure out what a mechanical wild boar is all about!

On the other side.

Blue light flickered and flowed between Sun Muchen's fingers.

A faint blue glow could also be seen on her body.

Strands and strands of silk gently swirl among the people behind them, protecting them.

Sun Muchen wasn't worried about Wang Lan's situation. After using her magic to investigate, she found that the wild boar's energy was nothing compared to Wang Lan's. Even when a stronger energy appeared later, Wang Lan's energy surged instantly, clearly indicating that he had activated the Frenzy skill.

This put Sun Muchen's mind at ease.

However, as those two energies disappeared one after another, the energy of Wang Lan that he sensed, after returning to calm, also inexplicably began to decrease. It was rather strange that things had turned out this way.

Although Sun Muchen wondered if this was a side effect caused by Wang Lan's bloodline not being strong enough to support the release of the Frenzy skill, the energy in Wang Lan's body actually dropped to about 50% or 60% before stopping.

Sun Muchen was getting impatient.

She glanced back at the crowd, then unleashed a burst of magical energy that formed a protective shield around them before heading out to check what was happening.

At this moment.

Wang Lan is back.

They were also dragging a huge black bear that had lost an arm.

From a distance, Wang Lan's steps appeared unsteady, as if she were quite tired.

Sun Muchen withdrew his magical energy and ran over.

"Brother!" She immediately noticed the scar on Wang Lan's chest and asked, "How are you? Are you alright?"

Wang Lan lowered her head and slightly raised it to look at Sun Muchen. She saw a strange light flashing in his eyes. After a moment, she nodded and looked away. "I, I'm fine."

"You don't look too good," Sun Muchen said. "Was the battle just now difficult?"

“It’s not difficult,” Wang Lan shook his head and said, “Maybe…maybe it’s because of the aftereffects of my fanaticism, I…I’m a little tired.”

As Wang Lan spoke, he let out a muffled groan, and a look of pain appeared on his face.

Sun Muchen quickly helped Wang Lan up by the shoulder.

When the delicate hand touched Wang Lan's skin.

Wang Lan suddenly shivered, her eyes widening as she looked at Sun Muchen.

Sun Muchen was startled and asked again, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

I told you I'm fine!

Wang Lan sounded impatient as he shook off Sun Muchen's arm and said, "Let's go back, I'm a little tired."

Sun Muchen didn't dare to say anything more and could only nod.

Watching Wang Lan walk ahead, Sun Muchen couldn't stop worrying about her, so he activated his magic and silently rushed towards Wang Lan.

Wang Lan suddenly stopped.

He turned to look at Sun Muchen.

Sun Muchen immediately felt his breathing become rapid, and a sense of tension washed over him.

She looked at Wang Lan, only to find that Wang Lan's expression was unfriendly. He stared at her as if suppressing his anger and said in a deep voice, "Don't always use your magic on me!"

Upon hearing this, Sun Muchen was stunned, as if struck by lightning.

As far as I can remember, this was the first time Wang Lan had spoken to me in this tone.

What happened to my brother?

What just happened?

"go back!"

Wang Lan continued, her voice carrying an unquestionable tone.

Sun Muchen nodded obediently and followed behind.

Wang Lan then dragged the black bear to the side of the group.

The claw marks on his chest were clearly visible, but looking at the huge black bear, everyone was both shocked and amazed. But then they saw Wang Lan's cold and frosty expression.

They immediately fell silent.

Wang Lan threw the black bear in front of everyone, pulled out the Vajra Umbrella, swept her cold eyes over everyone, and snorted.

"Useless trash"
