Chapter 63: Chapter 62: Rune Puppet
Translator: 549690339
Awooo?
(Who from over yonder is crossing tribulation here?)
Seeing the sudden explosion of the rune puppet, the Huskys eyes lit up, keen to rush over and examine it, but a wall of ice rose before the Husky, blocking its path.
Clatter clatter.
(This is my enemy!)
Alpha stood in front of the Husky, staring at the rune puppet on the ground because of the circular saw explosion, without any hesitation, it immediately launched an attack.
(Take advantage of your illness, take your life!)
Even so, this fellow was far from being ill, yet!
Sure enough, as Alpha launched another attack, the circular saw, which had initially been blown away by the blast, suddenly flew back and reconnected to the hand of the rune puppet.
Can it actually be played this way?
This technology seemed to have a hint of mechanical recombination.
Bai Qi became increasingly curious as he watched this, while Alphas Ice Sword
Slash also landed on the Rune Puppet.
Thick frost constantly spread through Alphas ice sword. Though the rune puppet continued to cut ceaselessly, it couldnt match the speed of the frosts spread, slowly restricting its movement.
Bai Qi requested to restrict its movement, and Alpha naturally implemented this thoroughly.
Clang clang.
However, just when Alpha was about to completely subjugate the rune puppet, the puppets eyes suddenly turned bright red, a huge cannon barrel emerged from its chest, and a hot energy began to converge in the center, leading its icy surface to start melting.
Alpha, take it down first.
Upon seeing the sudden outbreak of the rune puppet, Bai Qi no longer had the leisurely spirit of play, directly ordering Alpha to take it down.
Clatter clatter.
Following Alphas command, it lifted its massive sword, and rows of ice blades howled out.
With the mastery of Ice Sword Slash gradually increasing, Alpha could now control the form of the frost attack, no longer the crude ice flower it was initially. This method was learned from Han Weis Wind Demon Wolf.
It seemed effective at present, directly slashing the rune puppet into fragments.
Without the external mechanical concealment, there was an hollow metal cube from within the rune puppet, and at the center of the cube, a fiery red crystal was embedded.
A Fire Soul Crystal?
Can this be used as a power source?
Bai Qi, somewhat surprised, looked at the Fire Soul Crystal at the heart of the rune puppet. As he was about to have Alpha pick up the core, runes emerged on it. The fragments of the shattered armor, much like the previous circular saw, also displayed the same patterns before flying back towards the core.
In a short moment, the rune machine began to reform.
It can self-repair? Was ancient technology this powerful?
Bai Qis face changed, suddenly understanding why Li Xusheng, a third-stage hybrid beast master, couldnt defeat the rune puppet.
Was it because he was simply worn down?
Alpha, aim for its core.
Bai Qi issued a new command to Alpha, which immediately understood. Alpha once again launched an Ice Sword Slash, while the rune machine swung its circular saw in defense. The massive cannon on its chest also did not rest, launching attacks of red energy towards Alpha.
However, the frequency of Alphas attacks clearly far exceeded that of the rune puppet and it was quickly disassembled again, revealing its core.
This time, Alpha didnt give his opponent the chance to reassemble. Its dark blue body promptly disappeared into the shadows, transforming into a shadow lotus that directly pierced the core. The previously dazzling runes were corroded by the power of the shadow, instantly dissolving.
After the core shattered, the remaining parts exploded in sequence, not giving
Bai Qi a chance to examine them.
The keeper of this Secret Realm Tower is very stingy indeed.
Bai Qi silently mocked himself for a moment before picking up a piece of red metal that had appeared on the ground to examine it.
[Name]: Red Flame Iron
[Description]: A metal born under high-temperature conditions that has an extremely strong absorption capacity for flames.
This isnt too bad, it could be used to create some attribute counteracting tools.
Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction, had Alpha freeze the Red Flame Iron before handing it to the Husky, and then, without rushing to the next level, began to study the broken core he got from Alpha.
It seemed that due to Alphas Shadow Department Power, the core, which should have been a gathering of energy, had been preserved instead.
Bai Qi gave the core a careful examination but didnt find anything resembling a circuit. The energy from the Fire Soul Crystal seemed to be transmitted out of thin air.
What a pity, the rune on it has been destroyed, otherwise, we might have gotten a clearer picture of the situation.
Bai Qi let out a sigh of regret then turned to the Husky, asking, Did you record anything just now?
Woof woof!
(Do you think I can get through this ice wall with my height?)
The Husky rolled its eyes somewhat annoyed, looking at the ice wall that had formed just over its height, its resentment was obvious.
Forget it, the next level should still be the Rune Puppet, Alpha, remember to control it directly with the Shadow Lotus.
Bai Qi tossed aside the now discarded puppet core and proceeded to the next level with his twin pets.
Underneath the Lamentation Tower.
Li Xusheng, finally recovered, stood up ready to continue challenging the tower but was stopped by Yi Yu.
Dont rush, lets see if he can make it.
Yi Yu pointed at the gradually illuminating fifth rune on the gate and chuckled, President Qin, the Beast Master Association has quite a few talents recently, eh? A second stage Beast Master has actually made it to the fifth level.
Just a stroke of good luck.
President Qin gave a wry smile, I have also investigated, isnt this tower a relic of the Era of Law Emperor? Rune Puppets and the Mechanical Engineering Department are quite related after all.
True, but this Bai Qi is still quite impressive.
Yi Yu nodded in agreement, just as he was about to say something else, a massive Skeleton Dragon descended from the sky, landing in front of the Lamentation Tower.
The youth with a baby face sat upright on the Skeleton Dragon.
Skeleton Dragon? Are you Heguangs son, Bai Qiucha? Why didnt your father come?
President Qin glanced at the Skeleton Dragon a few times and immediately recognized the newcomers identity.
Bai Qiucha called back the Skeleton Dragon and went up to President Qin, bowing slightly, My dad had a sudden matter to attend to and left Gusu City. In the future, Qiucha might need to rely on President Qin more.
No need to rely on anyone, with your fathers status, no one dares to bully you.
President Qin chuckled, By the way, what brings you here today?
Bai Qiucha pointed at the Lamentation Tower, Before my dad left, he assigned me a task, he asked me to clear this Secret Realm Tower.
I see.
President Qin nodded and turned to Yi Yu, Minister Yi, can we add one more person on our side?
Although the Thirteenth Bureau only asked for three days of priority exploration rights, it was only for Bai Qi. According to practice, the Thirteenth Bureau has exclusive exploration rights for this month.
Yi Yu smiled saying, The son of Legendary Celestial Brilliance, of course it is possible.
Xusheng, you can go in as well.
Li Xusheng nodded, glanced at Bai Qiucha and turned towards the entrance, while Bai Qiucha furrowed his brows, but followed in as well..
