CHAPTER 161: CHAPTER 161 THE CONTINUOUSLY RESTORING METAL ARMOR (BONUS UPDATE 3/5)

The preset time has arrived, and Yoyo begins to wake Kane and the others one by one.

After tidying up the campsite tents, everyone starts to prepare for the exploration of this level.

If they’re quick, the next rest could be outside the dungeon, but if they’re slow, the next rest might be at the doorstep of the final boss.

Of course, that is under the premise that tasks like clearing the whole city of undead do not reappear.

Once everyone is ready, they organize themselves into formation and begin to advance along the path leading to the mountain peak.

On both sides of the mountain road, there are various kinds of tombstones, these tombstones are not placed flatly on the ground, but are randomly piled together, not only on both sides of the road but even on the surrounding mountain walls.

Some are even directly inserted horizontally on the mountain wall.

However, as they approach, no rotten corpse skeletons emerge from behind these tombstones, seemingly there are no bodies inside or they have not been nourished by the undead aura.

The biting cold wind keeps blowing on both sides of the road, and looking down from the road, the foot of the mountain cannot be seen at all.

Kane and the others seem to be on an exceedingly high mountain peak.

They have been ascending the mountain road for almost an hour.

Longbei looks at the seemingly endless path ahead and says, "How long do we have to walk? I haven’t even seen a single skeleton. A monster would be nice."

It is indeed a bit strange, having walked for so long yet no dungeon monsters have come to attack them.

As if this really is just an ordinary mountain peak.

Continuing forward for not much longer, Kane sees a magic power reaction appear at the corner of the path.

"Here it comes, there seems to be an enemy ahead."

Longbei instantly gets excited, raises his shield and hammer, and stands ready.

The sound of armor clashing is so distinct on the silent mountain peak.

When the magic power reaction reveals its true form, it’s an empty shell of armor, its various parts are floating and fitting together, but from the joints, it can be seen there’s nothing or no one inside supporting it.

This armor doesn’t rush towards Kane and the others, rather it stands still, a vague, indistinct voice emanating from its helmet.

"It seems we have guests wishing to meet our king, but let me test if you have the strength first."

After speaking, it draws the knight’s sword hanging at its waist and charges towards Kane and the others.

"Pinball"

Lilulu turns the nearby butterfly into a round ball and shoots it at the charging knight.

This strike hits the armor dead on, and when the white light fades away, only a pile of ashes remains.

The slogan was shouted so loudly, but the result is just this.

Longbei watches this scene and disappointedly lowers his shield and hammer.

Kane walks over, pats him on the shoulder, "Alright, stay alert, we’ve already encountered the first one, so the rest of the monsters should show themselves."

He kicks the ashes on the ground, finding not even a trace of materials dropped.

Then, everyone reorganizes their formation and proceeds forward.

After rounding the corner where the armor appeared, the road ahead is no longer bordered by tombstones but instead has weapons and armor scattered all over the place.

And at the end of the slope, a giant armor three meters high stands there, holding a massive iron hammer, with bloodstained marks on both its weapon and armor.

It raises its giant iron hammer with one hand and shouts towards Kane and the others, "Soldiers, attack."

The scattered armor and weapons start to tremble, then float and combine into several metal soldiers.

These metal soldiers have no formation, randomly charging towards Kane and the others.

Longbei directly opens Iron Wall Shield Defense, standing in front of Kane and the others.

The first to launch an attack is Lilulu.

The butterfly again flies into the sky, transforming into holy light meteors crashing down.

When the intense light effect disappears, all the armor falls to the ground, but they do not turn to ashes, merely become regular armor weapons.

They seem not to be like the knight’s armor Kane and the others encountered earlier, spawned by the dungeon as undead, but rather an effect caused by some skill.

"It seems I’ll have to meet you personally."

Then the gigantic metal armor directly transforms into a mass of metal fragments and rushes towards Kane and the others.

"Where’s the raggedy armor trying to hit?"

Longbei’s mocking voice rings out, the metal fragments directly reform into their original form in front of them.

The metal armor raises its giant iron hammer, and strikes down on Longbei’s shield.

This strike causes ripples in Longbei’s iron wall shield defense, even forcing Longbei to uncontrollably step back half a step.

A pale virtual image penetrates through its body, a golden light blade slashes at the back plates of its armor.

A faint layer of frost appears on the armor, and a large section of the back plating gets shattered, revealing the hollow inside.

But these fragments soon gather again and fill the gap, the light blade which has always been effective against the undead seems to not have affected this armor at all.

Kane’s holy light bullet also hits its chest, the magic power from the critical strike detonates the armor on its chest.

But these fragments still gather at its chest and fill the gap anew.

The effect of Lilulu’s colorful stars hitting it is the same as what Kane and the others caused.

It seems their attacks have no effect on this metal armor.

The metal armor also does not intend to defend, but keeps striking its giant hammer on Longbei’s shield.

Causing Longbei to retreat step by step.

Kane decides to first control it, switching [Arrest Order] into the skill grid.

The spider silk he shoots continuously wraps around the metal armor, attempting to encircle it completely.

The armor wields the giant hammer, swinging its arms incessantly to hit the spider silk shot by Kane, some spider silks manage to wrap around it, but are directly torn off by its great strength.

Seeing this scene, Kreya swings the light blade to slash at the joints on the armor’s shoulder, shattering the part linking the arm.

As these fragments gather to fill the gaps, Kane’s spider silk takes the opportunity to wind around.

While the other arm gets repeatedly struck by Lilulu’s colorful stars, occasionally a blue hand tosses a small explosive potion into its body.

The newly restored arm trying to break free from the spider silk is smashed to pieces by these attacks.

Kreya and the others continue to interfere with the metal armor’s attempts to break free from the spider silk.
