As Zuo Si reappeared, the three dragons that were originally fighting quickly separated.
Especially Felcrag, who was in an overwhelming disadvantage, had begun to feel that he was being plotted against, and immediately tried to summon his most capable subordinates.
In the blink of an eye, the wizard Const and a mercenary team composed of humans and gray dwarves rushed in from another entrance.
When they saw three red dragons in front of them, they were completely dumbfounded and had no idea what was going on.
But from the blood spilled on the ground and the numerous wounds on his master's body caused by claws and teeth, he could vaguely tell that a fierce battle must have just broken out.
So after hesitating for a moment, Const immediately couldn't help but ask: "Great Master, what's going on?"
"Shut up! Stop talking nonsense! All these guys you see are enemies!"
Felcrag roared and instantly activated a magic item he was wearing. The healing spell released from it restored some of his vitality and stopped the bleeding from the wounds on his body.
Upon hearing that the two red dragons were enemies, Const's face changed slightly, and he raised his hand and prepared to cast a spell.
But before he could chant the first syllable, he heard Zuo Si slowly opening his to warn: "If I were you, from now on I would honestly stand still and not rashly get involved in this battle that does not belong to you. Because if you complete mouth even the lowest level of zero-ring tricks, I guarantee that you will die in the next second."
moment!
Const's waving hands stopped, and his eyes instantly revealed a strong sense of fear.
Needless to say, he recognized Zuo Si's identity, and also knew what this man, who was chosen by two goddesses, had done in recent times.
Whether it was defeating and sealing a lesser abyss lord, killing Manshoon, or defeating several chief red robe wizards and making the famous Sazastan retreat voluntarily, these were definitely not something that a mere LV16 wizard could achieve.
Seeing the wizard hesitate, Zuo Si immediately realized that the other party and Fercrag might not be in a very strict superior-subordinate relationship, but rather closer to an alliance or cooperative relationship.
It's just that in this cooperation, Red Dragon occupies an absolute dominant position, while Const is in a subordinate position.
Under normal circumstances, with Fercrag's powerful strength, Const would not dare to have any second thoughts, otherwise he would be hunted down.
But now, Fercrag seems to be in danger, and he can't help but think about himself.
There is no way around it. Basically, every one of the people in the evil camp is very selfish. It is simply a dream to expect them to make sacrifices for others.
Especially the mages in the evil camp are the most typical among them.
Seeing that his men were about to rebel, Felcrag's eyes suddenly became extremely fierce and cruel, and he threatened in an extremely cold and slow tone: "Const! You have to think clearly about the price of betraying me!"
"Don't worry. As long as your master dies today, he won't be able to make you pay anything. So why can't we cooperate? I promise that no matter what Faircrag promised or what kind of agreement he reached with you, I can pay double."
Zuo Si launched a psychological offensive with a smile on his face.
Although with his current strength, it would not take any effort to deal with Const and his human mercenaries.
But it's still quite interesting to watch the enemies fighting and killing each other.
After all, the best spellcasters will always prioritize the use of wisdom, rather than just wantonly venting magical power like many preaching wizards who died in bizarre ways.
"Idiot! Do you think he will let you go after I die? Don't dream! You have no right to bargain at all! Come and help me! This is the only choice!" Fercrag roared.
Just when Const was hesitating, Isadora, who was hiding in the dark, finally took action.
Since psychic powers are more hidden and mysterious than any magic or divine arts, there was no sign when she released [Memory Tampering].
But under the influence of this psychic power, Const's memory of the past five minutes was modified. He thought he had reached a cooperation agreement with Zuo Si, and immediately pointed at Fercrag and ordered the mercenaries behind him: "Go! Kill him!"
moment!
Everyone, including the mercenaries and Fercrag, were stunned.
The latter, in particular, could hardly believe that this wizard, who had always shown great respect and obedience to him, would dare to betray him at such a critical moment, and did not seem to have any hesitation.
"Are you crazy?"
Felcrag's lava-like eyes burst out with the brutality unique to a red dragon when it is in crisis.
But unfortunately, the response he got was an [Ice Cone].
Since the red dragon is a giant dragon with fire attributes, it is completely immune to all fire damage, but is particularly susceptible to cold damage.
To describe it in more professional terms, it is "vulnerable to cold", which means that cold weapons and magic can cause additional damage to it.
So when the biting coldness of the Ice Cone hit the wound, Fercrag instantly lost his mind and fell into a state of madness.
He completely ignored Davian and Wilmes, and rushed directly to where Const was, opening his mouth and spewing out a mouthful of boiling hot flames.
Several human mercenaries who were still in shock and had no time to react were instantly turned into ashes by the white high-temperature flames of over a thousand degrees Celsius.
But Const was obviously prepared. The moment the dragon's breath was exhaled, he immediately activated the anywhere door spell and disappeared on the spot.
Along with the activation of the portal, the invisibility cloak he was wearing was also activated, and the whole person instantly disappeared from Felcrag's sight.
This combination of a portal and an invisibility magic item or potion is what many arcane spellcasters often use when they are attacked.
Among them, the arbitrary door can be used for short-distance teleportation, instantly allowing the caster to arrive at a relatively safe place.
Invisibility potions or magic items can make the enemy unable to find a target to attack the moment the teleportation is completed, thus buying enough time for you to cast the next spell or turn around and escape.
"It seems that you are really at the end of the road this time." Zuo Si stared at Fercrag's frustrated look and showed a playful smile.
Because of the telepathic connection, he knew very well what Isadora, who was hiding in the corner, was doing.
As a psychic specializing in the "Telepath" faction, the girl's ability to silently influence and manipulate the thoughts of others is even far superior to that of a mage specializing in enchantment.
Especially in the face of unique psychic spells such as [Memory Tampering], [Reading Thoughts], [Aversion], [Suggestion], [Fake Senses], etc., unless one is 100% immune to everything in this regard, there is a high possibility that one will be controlled unknowingly without realizing it, just like Const now.
Moreover, the people who are influenced and manipulated do not notice anything unusual at all. Instead, they think that all this is a choice made based on their own subjective consciousness.
"Very good! Very good! You forced me to do this!"
Felcrag flapped his wings violently and pushed away Wilmes who was rushing towards him, then he soared into the air and quickly chanted dragon language magic in mid-air.
Zuo Si had read some of the scrolls of Netheril and therefore had an unparalleled advantage in spell identification.
When the opponent was halfway through chanting the spell, he immediately recognized that this guy was actually releasing the nine-ring magic [Wish].
Warlock?
Spell-like abilities? Dragon-specific professions?
These three possibilities suddenly emerged in his mind.
You have to know that in Faerun, most of the evil dragons are lazy people who have no jobs, eat and sleep all day, and occasionally go out to plunder wealth.
But if this lazy nature can be overcome, then this behemoth will become a most formidable enemy.
A lifespan of thousands of years allows them to learn a wide range of knowledge and skills, and their wisdom will be strengthened and accumulated as they grow older.
However, despite his curiosity, Zuo Si would not allow the other party to cast the "Wish Spell", a powerful magic that could easily reverse the situation in an instant. He immediately to use the ability of a creator began to extract the energy that supported the spell structure.
But dragon magic is obviously very different from the magic used by mortals. It mobilizes more energy and the spell structure is more stable.
Therefore, at the moment when the spell was completed, Zuo Si failed to destroy it, but only reduced it from the ninth-ring [Wish Spell] to the seventh-ring [Limited Wishing Spell].
Although the literal meaning is just the addition of the word "limited", the effect is vastly different.
The moment Felcrag expressed his wish, several portals suddenly opened, and a large army composed entirely of metal constructs walked out from the other side.
The leader, a construct that looked like a giant sphere, emitted a mechanical electronic sound from the opening on his head: "According to the excerpt of the second paragraph of Chapter 3, Section 4, of the Germis Treaty, we have responded to the call. The 9th Squad of the 12th Battalion of the 6th Legion of Malaka will fight for you."
"I command you to kill all living things except me!"
Felcrag quickly gave orders to the constructs summoned by the [Limited Wish].
But what's interesting is that these constructs did not take action immediately. Instead, they took out a thick stack of metal plates engraved with a large number of unknown symbols from somewhere on their bodies and handed them to the red dragon. They said in a tone without any emotion: "Please read the terms of the agreement carefully and sign them after confirming that there are no problems."
"Sign...sign?"
Felcrag was stunned for a moment.
Because he couldn't believe even in his dreams that these constructs that he summoned from somewhere would actually make such a strange request.
However, he obviously couldn't understand those strange symbols. Just as he was about to sign on it with his claws, he suddenly heard Zuo Si beside him remind him: "If I were him, I wouldn't just sign something with such powerful magical binding force."
"Why, are you scared?" Fercrag sneered.
Zuo Si smiled and shook his head: "No, of course not, I am just stating a fact.
Because these constructs all come from a plane of ultimate order, a cold and emotionless plane, its name is called the Mechanical Realm.
The Mechanical Realm is the birthplace of the order and power of the entire multiverse, so various protocols and rules must be implemented no matter what.
If you sign a contract with the devil and don't fulfill it, the most they will do is send some of their minions to hunt you down.
But if you sign an agreement with the Mechanical Realm and fail to fulfill it, it means becoming an enemy of all the order forces in the entire multiverse.
According to some history from other dimensions, a certain god once wanted to use the mechanical realm to achieve his own goals, but after the success, he refused to fulfill the terms of the agreement.
Guess what happened to him in the end?
His kingdom was conquered by an endless army of constructs, and he himself was forcibly taken back to the mechanical realm for transformation.
Finally, a new gear kingdom and mechanical lord emerged in the Mechanical Realm."
Hearing this, Fercrag immediately couldn't help but shudder.
Although his knowledge of the planes was not rich, he had heard of the mechanical realm.
This plane as a whole looks like a huge teardrop-shaped clock, and every kind of law and order constitutes a gear kingdom.
All gear kingdoms operate according to an extreme order and rules, and there will never be the slightest deviation or error.
Some people say that the mechanical plane is a place of complete balance, justice and order, where light and darkness, cold and heat, positive energy and negative energy are half and half, and no side can gain even the slightest advantage.
And because of the complex laws, rules and etiquette brought about by the extreme order, everything seems so dull.
Things like passion, dreams, pain, and longing that can cause violent emotional fluctuations do not exist at all.
There are no wild animals or plants here, only intelligent constructs that are equally cold and can endure extreme boredom.
For a greedy, evil red dragon who desires to become a tyrant and rule a large country, there is no place more terrifying than the Mechanical Realm.
Staring at the dozens of pages of metal plates in front of him, Felcrag fell into deep thought. After about two or three minutes, he carefully asked, "What are the contents of these treaties?"
"Quoting Section 25 of the Seventh Amendment, the summoner should know the price he will have to pay, and the executor has no right or obligation to make any explanation to the summoner." The spherical construct continued to respond in a very dull tone.
Undoubtedly, this answer immediately put Fercrag in a dilemma.
On the one hand, without knowing the content of the terms, he didn't dare to sign them rashly.
On the other hand, he was in urgent need of help, otherwise he might really die here today.
After much hesitation, the red dragon finally chose death over facing serious consequences.
The moment he signed his name on the metal plate with his claws, the spherical structure immediately expanded into a huge metal net.
Before Fercrag could react to what was happening, his entire body was completely covered and pinned to the ground.
No matter how he struggled or breathed out his deadly flaming breath, it was of no avail.
The spherical construct waved thousands of mechanical arms at incredible speed, prying the scales off the red dragon's body piece by piece.
At the same time, use the front ends as sharp as scalpels to tear apart muscles, internal organs and bones, and then replace them with metals handed over by other constructs behind.
The intense pain of being cut into pieces was unbearable for Fercrag. He roared madly, "Let me go! Stop! I order you to stop immediately! What on earth do you want to do?"
"I am fulfilling the contract and transforming you into a construct like us, and merging you with me. This way, you can legitimately become the commander of the 9th Squadron of the 12th Battalion under the 6th Legion of Malaka, and lead us to do whatever you want. Of course, the premise is that you still have this idea by then."
The spherical construct spoke in the calmest language possible, words that made Felcrag shudder.
Not only Ferkrag, but also another red dragon, Wilmes, was present.
After witnessing the horrifying scene of such a powerful fellow being pinned to the ground and dismembered alive, the latter immediately retreated to the corner of the nest, not even bothering to take a second look at the mountain of treasure.
"Master, what should we do now?" asked the Dragon Knight David in an uncertain tone.
"Don't be impatient, just observe for a while." Zuo Si responded with interest, touching his chin.
There is no doubt that when Fercrag made the wish, he did not realize that his [Wish Spell] was downgraded due to insufficient energy to support the spell structure, so he made the wish according to the format of the nine-ring [Wish Spell] instead of the seven-ring [Limited Wishing Spell].
This means there are loopholes in the wording and the effect can be easily misinterpreted.
The biggest "pitfall" was the agreement that the Mechanical Realm could not understand and was not explained.
In fact, similar situations often occur when using [Wish] and [Limited Wish].
Sometimes it's because the wish was not worded carefully enough, sometimes it's because the wish exceeded the upper limit of the spell, and sometimes it's because of some inexplicable interference.
In short, the [Wish], which is known as the most powerful magic under the legend, is essentially a spell that tests luck and character.
People with good luck can use it to get what they want, but people with bad luck are very likely to lose everything after using it once.
This is also the reason why Zuo Si, although he had mastered the art of making wishes, rarely used it.
After all, this isn't a game where you can choose the result you want from a number of options, nor is it a group game where a DM comes to the rescue.
Apart from some fixed routines that have been figured out by mages, such as those used to enhance basic attributes and simulate other magical effects, he does not intend to rely too much on the convenience brought by [Wish].
It has to be said that the work efficiency of the mechanical realm constructs is definitely the highest in the entire multiverse.
In just a short while, almost half of Fercrag's body from the tail to the abdomen was transformed into pure mechanical metal.
Especially when a big treasure was cut off, his screams were particularly loud.
What's even more terrifying is that this transformation is still continuing and is about to touch a dragon's two most core organs - the heart and stomach.
The heart is the source of the dragon's life. Once it is lost, it will no longer be a living creature.
The stomach is the source of power. Many supernatural and spell-like abilities, including breath weapons, rely on the powerful stomach to absorb elemental energy and supply it to the whole body.
Coupled with the pain caused by the forced dismantling of his muscles, bones, and internal organs, Felcrag finally collapsed and begged for help directly to his enemies: "Help me! I would rather die as a red dragon! I don't want to become a cold construct!"
But Zuo Si remained unmoved and asked back: "I just reminded you, but you ignored it. Now, give me a reason to help you?"
"Don't you want my body, life and soul? I can give you everything!" Fercrag was obviously determined to give it all.
Because he knew that once the transformation was completed, he would become one of the many constructs in the Mechanical Realm, and even his soul would undergo drastic changes under the cleansing of the powerful and absolute force of order.
Of course, it would be best if you could escape from the melee.
"Remember your promise."
Zuo Si was obviously well aware that this cunning red dragon was actually using him, but considering the possible threat that the dragon might bring after being transformed into a construct, he decided to prevent this from happening.
Otherwise, he would have to spend some more time looking for another powerful red dragon as a sacrifice.
Although the constructs from the Mechanical Realm are dull, they are not fools.
Noticing that this mortal was about to take action, they immediately gathered together to form a tight defensive formation.
Different from constructs such as golems and shield guardians created by mages, this construct not only has a hard and indestructible body and terrifying brute force that can easily knock down a wall, but also has a large number of spellcasters.
Especially some small humanoid constructs whose bodies are filled with lightning energy or fire energy, and they are 100% capable of controlling at least one element.
The spherical construct that was transforming Fercrag issued a direct warning: "Back off! If you come any closer we will treat you as an enemy and attack you."
"Were we not already enemies from the moment the agreement was signed? If I remember correctly, according to the first law of the Mechanical Realm, all signed agreements must be implemented. So when Fercrag issued the order to eliminate all enemies except himself, it meant that only one of us could survive."
As Zuo Si spoke, he pulled out two cards that he had never used before.
Obviously, he would need to activate some special powers and gadgets when dealing with an army of constructs with numerous immunities.
"The commander will make the final decision on whether to implement the agreement after the transformation is completed. Before that, our relationship does not necessarily have to become that of enemies. But if you interfere with the implementation of the agreement, we will kill you without mercy." The spherical construct explained meticulously.
As a creature in the mechanical realm, it absolutely will not and cannot lie, so every word it says is the most true thought in its heart.
Unfortunately, Zuo Si, who had already decided to take action, didn't care about the thoughts of these constructs at all and activated the first card without hesitation.
moment!
A huge crystal tower about seven or eight meters high appeared out of thin air.
Before the spherical construct could react, a terrifying thunder storm shot out from the top of the tower, covering the location of the construct army at an unimaginable speed.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Along with dazzling bright lightning flashing from the sky, a large number of constructs were immediately placed in a large area.
Because the metal body is an excellent conductor of electrical energy, under the influence of strong electric current, the magical energy that originally maintained its movement is blocked, and it instantly becomes extremely slow or completely loses the ability to move.
Some structures with relatively high resistance began to heat up uncontrollably and the temperature rose rapidly.
After being electrocuted several times in a row, his entire body completely melted into a pool of boiling metal liquid.
It goes without saying that this giant crystal tower is the energy storage device that Zuo Si made for himself when he had nothing better to do.
It is an upgraded version of [Blue Dragon Nemesis], with a significant improvement in both the amount of power it can store and its power.
"Warning! Warning! The protocol in progress is under attack! The 9th Squad of the 12th Battalion of the 6th Legion of Malaka will immediately enter combat status."
The spherical construct immediately issued instructions to the army of constructs that were suffering from electric shocks.
Just one second later, one of the constructs flashing with lightning suddenly leaped up and rushed into the dense clouds above, completely absorbing the lightning storm that had just formed.
The next second...
This guy threw all the lightning energy he absorbed at Zuo Si's location, wanting to eliminate this most threatening mortal in one fell swoop.
But just as the lightning, thicker than the stone pillar, fell, Zuo Si's body suddenly began to expand rapidly, and was eventually engulfed by the huge roar and white lightning.
Due to the exaggerated brightness, everyone in the Dragon's Nest felt a strong stinging pain in their eyes, accompanied by a slight burning sensation.
According to the diagnosis given by doctors on Earth, the lightest injury is retinal burns, which may cause irreversible damage to vision.
But in the world of Faerun, which is full of magical power, all it takes is a treatment for minor injuries or pouring a few drops of healing potion into the eyes to quickly recover.
As the white lightning gradually dissipated, Felcrag opened his mouth in disbelief.
Because he saw that at the center of the thunder, there stood a fellow dragon covered with dark blue scales, a blue dragon.
As we all know, blue dragons are completely immune to lightning damage.
So even though he was attacked by such powerful thunder, he did not suffer the slightest damage.
Needless to say, when facing the powerful lightning attack, Zuo Si chose the simplest and easiest response measure.
Not only that!
He also took advantage of the fact that these simple-minded and rigid constructs didn't understand what was happening and decisively opened his mouth and spit out a super lightning breath.
The latter was like a huge net, directly covering hundreds of constructs, and cooperating with the crystal spires to pin the indigenous people from the mechanical realm to the ground, repeatedly destroying and ravaging them.
As a planeswalker, manipulating, transforming, and storing energy is as instinctive as breathing.
When the terrifying lightning energy descended, Zuo Si not only transformed into a blue dragon to gain immunity, but also absorbed most of the energy into his body, and then bounced it back again with his breath.
And this time, he did not give the other party any chance to absorb and transform.
Two consecutive heavy blows quickly shattered those constructs that were not strong enough.
Some were completely destroyed, while others simply temporarily lost their ability to move and entered a state of self-repair.
Yes!
You heard it right!
Unlike the constructs built by mages, the constructs in the Mechanical Realm that have life and soul can slowly recover from injuries through hibernation.
Although this process may be very long, some constructs may even find that thousands of years have passed after waking up.
Of course, time has no meaning for immortal constructs, so they will quickly find a way to return to the mechanical world and continue to perform their boring and tedious duties until the end of time or the end of life.
Seeing that more and more of its men were forced into hibernation, the spherical construct finally stopped transforming Felcrag. It swung the sharp blade in its hand and cut off the neural network connecting the brain to the body and limbs at the back of the neck. Then it used the slender mechanical arms extending from its body to connect the damaged remains of the construct one after another.
After a short while, the debris was reassembled together under its control to form a huge super-giant structure.
It can also fire long-range weapons such as metal spears, javelins, and iron balls from various independent parts of the body.
Both Wilmes and the Dragonborn Knight suffered serious injuries in this round of violent attacks.
Especially Davidian's powerful strength attribute was completely suppressed by the opponent in close combat.
Just based on this point, it is certain that this combined steel giant has a strength attribute of at least fifty points.
As for its ability to withstand blows, it is extremely exaggerated. Even a dragon claw can only tear a small hole on it.
Even the breath of fire that was powerful enough to melt rock and steel only made the surface red and hot.
Only the incredible power of lightning could cause a brief delay.
"Damn! This thing reminds me of the robot combination in some old animation works..." Zuo Si complained softly with a twitching mouth.
Although he had read about the grotesque and mechanical punk style of the mechanical world in some books a long time ago, he still felt shocked from the bottom of his heart after seeing it with his own eyes.
After all, this group of constructs may only be a small part of the huge army under the command of a mechanical lord in a gear kingdom.
This shows how terrifying and astonishing the power contained in the entire mechanical realm is.
No wonder when the demons of the Abyss launched a war to conquer the multiverse, they never bothered the Mechanical Realm.
It’s not that they don’t want to, but they really can’t afford to offend.
Because the demons in the abyss are endless, the constructs in the mechanical realm are also endless.
Once any disorderly force invades, it will be met with unimaginable fierce siege in minutes.
"Mortal, you have violated the agreement and I formally declare you under arrest. Please give up resistance immediately and come back with me to face the law. Otherwise, I will invoke the final terms to eliminate you and your accomplices."
The spherical construct issued an ultimatum in a righteous manner.
Obviously, as the embodiment of ultimate order, even at this time it is still acting strictly according to procedures.
"Destroy me? Sorry, you are not strong enough to do that."
As he spoke, Zuo Si restored his dragon form to human form and quickly activated another card in his hand.
Accompanied by a strong arcane aura, a huge crab-like mechanical monster appeared out of thin air.
It has a huge body that is almost the same size as its enemy, two metal pincers that can crush anything, and three pairs of limbs to support its body.
Through the two eyes standing on the front of the head, you can vaguely see that there is a very complex control room inside.
Without saying a word, Zuo Si opened the entrance and jumped in, pulling down the red lever marked start.
Crack! Crack! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! After a rhythmic mechanical sound and roar, the giant metal crab slowly stood up from the ground and waved its claws to block the fist swung by the steel giant.
boom!!!!!!!!
A deafening roar echoed in the cave.
In this way, the two steel behemoths launched an unprecedented battle in the dragon's nest.
The sound of the collision between the terrifying force and the steel left the incapacitated Fercrag dumbfounded.
Since he had traveled to many places in the continent of Faerun when he was young, he recognized at a glance that the giant metal crab controlled by Zuo Si was not a construct, but a magical machine called "Quarish".
This kind of thing is very common among mages with a certain level of strength.
In the Sword Bay area alone, many people have built themselves submarine-like Quarish devices to salvage and collect treasures that have sunk to the bottom of the sea.
However, most Quarish devices are usually not too large in size. The largest one will not exceed the area of a small wooden house, and the smallest one can only accommodate one person.
On the one hand, the larger the Quarish device, the more materials and costs it consumes, and the difficulty of manufacturing it will increase exponentially; on the other hand, a Quarish device that is too large will consume a horrible amount of energy, which is simply not something that an ordinary wizard can provide.
Felcrag had no idea how Zuo Si could control this huge steel monster, which was like a biological weapon used in the underwater race war - the "Siege Crab".
"What do we do now?"
Wilmes looked at the two steel behemoths fighting in close combat with a helpless expression.
She might dare to challenge those dragons that are more powerful than herself, but she would not dare to easily join the contest between these super steel beasts.
Because even if you get hit accidentally, you may be seriously injured or even die immediately.
"Just wait. The master will take care of those constructs from the Mechanical Realm."
Having said that, Davian went straight to Felcrag and controlled him.
He obviously knew about this super-giant Quarish device.
To be precise, after settling down in Askatla, Zuo Si had already begun planning to build a multi-functional combat platform that could adapt to various complex environments.
Since the Quarish device is a typical combination of magic and technology, it naturally became the first choice.
Unfortunately, due to the limited supply of some rare and precious raw materials, manufacturing progress has always been very slow.
Even the giant metal crab in front of him, which already possesses considerable combat power, is only an unfinished semi-finished product.
Not even a single weapon system that can truly kill the enemy on a large scale and with high efficiency has been installed.
Otherwise, the Iron Giant would have been defeated long ago.
Just when everyone in the Dragon's Nest was attracted by the battle between the two steel behemoths, several monsters that looked like a hybrid of enlarged ants and spiders suddenly rushed out from the corner.
They have strong limbs, a body length of more than one and a half meters, and a convex back height of about one meter. They rushed towards the steel giant at an extremely fast speed, opened their mouths and bit it hard.
Under the influence of the saliva rich in magical power, a large area of metal instantly showed gray-brown rust spots, which were still expanding at an extremely fast speed.
Moreover, these monsters treat rusty steel as food and gnaw on it with a crunching sound.
"Rust monster?"
Zuo Si instantly recognized these monsters that didn't seem to pose a high threat.
As the name suggests, this monster has the magical power to make metal rust and feed on it. It is simply the natural enemy of all metals.
Although a few rust monsters posed limited threat to the steel giant in front of them, they caused great panic in the spherical construct that served as the control core.
It didn't even bother to pay attention to the metal crab's huge claws, and immediately shifted the focus of its attack to several rust monsters.
When the first rust monster was smashed by the iron fist, Zuo Si finally seized the opportunity to control the Quarish device to swing its two giant pincers, and with a click, it cut off the opponent's two arms.
Then it leaped deep into the air and used its weight and inertia to press it to the ground, digging the spherical structure out from the layers of wrapping bit by bit.
Although this guy was struggling and resisting throughout the whole process, it was obviously not a combat-type construct.
Even waving the densely packed mechanical arms failed to cause any substantial damage to the hard crab shell, leaving only some insignificant scratches at best.
Without any hesitation!
Zuo Si quickly crushed this construct that was obviously in a leading position and threw the remains to the rust monster nearby to eat.
As for the other constructs that had not been destroyed, they immediately fell into chaos after losing their command.
Although they were still trying to carry out the final order, due to the lack of unified command and dispatch, they fought on their own and were soon destroyed by the giant metal crab.
The two huge pincers, in particular, could often crush a small construct in one go, with heads, limbs and torsos made of various metals scattered everywhere.
When the last construct was killed and the battle was completely over, the parts alone had piled up into a small mountain, which was many times more spectacular than the pile of golden treasures next to it.
As for Fercrag, who had been lying on the side and watched the whole process, he had realized the fate he was about to face. His eyes immediately revealed a strong fear. He lowered his voice and incited, "You two are also members of the great red dragon clan. Do you really want to watch me get killed? We can definitely join forces and launch a sneak attack when he comes. I swear, as long as we can survive this crisis, all the treasures in the nest will be divided among you."
"Forget it. Betraying Soth? I haven't lived enough."
Wilmes raised his front paw and stepped on the head of the "old senior" in an unhappily manner, his tone full of disdain.
Although the treasure is very tempting, she has not forgotten that there is a thing in her head that can kill her at any time.
Moreover, compared with the long-term benefits that can be obtained by following South, this short-term one-time deal has long been less attractive.
Seeing that Wilmes refused to cooperate with him, Ferkrag turned his attention to the Dragon Knight.
Davian told me directly: "I am not of the same kind as you. I just gained the ability to transform into a red dragon through the power of my master. He came all the way here to capture you just to make my ability go further. The most important thing is that I am absolutely loyal to my master. No matter what order he gives, even if it means I have to die, I will execute it without hesitation."
