I am the Scourge

Chapter 185 Ancient Machinery
【Snake of Decay】

【Ancient Machinery】

[Level: Perfect]

[Explanation: The organ beast guarding the decaying temple is controlled by the spirit of the dead born in the cemetery, so it becomes extremely aggressive. After defeating it, you can enter the decaying temple through a specific entrance]

……

The attributes seen by the insight were beyond Li Wei's expectations.

This giant snake is not an alchemy creature, not even a monster, but a special organ beast.

Mechanism beast.

In essence, it is also a kind of alchemy creature.

But the origin of mechanism beasts is many years earlier than alchemy creatures.

This technology originated from another technological civilization that was in its infancy with alchemy—ancient mechanics.

Levi didn't know much about it.

I just saw a record in Moon Alchemy.

The theories pursued by the scholars of the ancient mechanical school are fundamentally different from the current magical technology school. They firmly believe that machinery is the ultimate form of life, and they wantonly carry out research on the mechanical transformation of living things.

then……

They just disappear.

There are many stories circulating in history about the sudden decline of the ancient mechanical school.

Some scholars have analyzed the two most reliable versions of the family of the moon.

One theory is: it is because the academic theory of the ancient mechanical school fundamentally overthrew the evolution of life, and the evolution of life is also called the theory of the supremacy of gods, that is, gods are the final form of life evolution.

The evolution of life is also the foundation of theocracy.

The theory of mechanical supremacy proposed by the scholars of the ancient mechanical school is undoubtedly tantamount to provoking the majesty of God.

Therefore, they died until the end, and were sanctioned by the gods.

Another way of saying it is more interesting.

It was mentioned.

The School of Ancient Mechanics and the School of Magic Technology actually have the background support of the two races of gods and demons behind them.

Protoss advocates respecting magic science and technology.

And ancient mechanics is the seed of knowledge spread by demons in the world.

After the decisive war between gods and demons in ancient times, the demons were forever sealed in the abyss. Only every thousand years, when the seal was loosened, could two or three kittens escape, causing a chaos and disaster.

In such a context.

The ancient mechanical school supported by the demon clan, naturally, was gradually suppressed by the magic technology school and disappeared...

In Li Wei's view, these two statements should have a certain amount of truth, and they are not in conflict.

The reason why the Protoss is powerful.

It is because they can gain additional power through the beliefs of other species.

If Levi is a demon.

If you want to attack the Protoss, you will definitely choose to start from the aspect of belief and destroy the source of their power acquisition.

In fact.

Alchemy biology has developed to the point where it is now, and it has long been able to perfectly transfer the soul into the puppet body, reaching the highest life form of mechanical eternity respected by the ancient mechanical school.

But no scholar has ever dared to stand up and mention the theory of mechanical supremacy again.

This already illustrates some problems...

Complicated thoughts flashed.

Li Wei didn't lose his mind for too long.

It is not easy to defeat the controlled beast in front of it. Theoretically speaking, the beast is a machine with no so-called life value. The only way to defeat it is to destroy its core.

But it is too big, it is not easy to find a small energy core in such a huge body.

"Slow it down."

Li Wei said.

Frost Wind!

Yue shot immediately, her dark blue eyes shone like gems, and the magic power surged out of her body. A cold wind immediately rolled up on the flat ground, turning into a blue storm and covering the body of the giant snake.

Kacha...!
Layers of ice balls immediately spread over half of the giant snake's body.

As it moved, the flimsy ice layer that had just formed immediately shattered, but it could be seen that the precision mechanical structure exposed outside its body was covered with a layer of frost, and its movements were obviously much slower.

"Wow!"

It opened its abyss-like giant mouth and made a strange noise.

Suddenly.

An extremely strong suction came from its mouth!

Whoosh!
A stone flew away from the ear in an instant, as fast as a bullet. Immediately, Li Wei felt his body move forward uncontrollably. He was a hundred meters away from the giant snake, but he was also affected by this suction.

"Roar!"

Xiong Da immediately stepped forward and stood in front of the team.

Relying on its majestic figure of nearly 15 meters after transformation, it can firmly resist this suction. Moreover, even if it is sucked in ten thousand steps back, with the caliber of that giant snake, it cannot be swallowed whole.

"Taste this for you..."

Li Wei raised his hand and threw out two red objects.

Whoosh!
Under the strong suction of the giant snake, the two Golden Ones were sucked and flew towards its mouth as if they had no weight at all.

"burst!"

Li Wei snorted lightly.

boom!
boom!
After hearing two violent roars, the suction stopped suddenly, and a raging flame suddenly burst out from the giant snake's mouth. The tongue of flame shot out for more than ten meters, and it was faintly visible. Its entire neck was illuminated by the blazing fire!

The Golden One's damage to creatures is fixed and limited.

But when it comes to the destruction of buildings and organs, the effect it can exert is absolutely unexpected, especially when it is detonated in a narrow environment like a snake's cavity, the damage it causes is even more multiplied.

call!
The gushing flames lingered for a long time.

The dry flesh and blood on the giant snake's body was directly ignited by the continuously released flames, and there was a faint tendency to burn it completely!
At this time.

A series of shining magic patterns lit up on the giant snake's body, and the spreading flames were immediately contained and extinguished in a short while.

It's the magic track!
Li Wei was not surprised but delighted.

He was worried that he couldn't find the core of this giant snake, but it took the initiative to expose its own magic power running veins. As long as it followed the flow of the magic pattern and carried out reverse scrutiny, it was easy to know its core location!

boom!
The magic pattern on the giant snake's body flashed again.

The ground trembled violently.

A series of terrifying ravines burst open, and endless green mist gushed out from them, quickly filling the audience.

is poison.

Li Wei noticed it immediately, but he wasn't worried at all.

There are two types of poison.

One is a physical toxin mixed with substances.

The other is an energy toxin converted through magic power.

The characteristics of the undead make it immune to any type of physical poisoning by nature, and Li Wei, who is extremely sensitive to energy perception, can tell instantly that these drifting poisonous mist are not energy poisoning.

To be on the safe side, he still released a layer of primordial power to envelop himself, when the poisonous mist spread over.

The prompt sounds at the same time.

"Reminder: You are affected by the poison of decay, and you are immune to this poisoning effect!"

"Reminder: Your summoned object is immune to this poisoning effect!"

"..."

"Its core is seven meters below the abdomen, Theodora!"

Li Wei said quickly.

"Ok!"

Theodora nodded briskly, blood burst out all over her body, and her whole body instantly turned into a blood shadow and shot out.

"Howling...!"

At this time.

A dull roar sounded from the cracks in the broken ground.

Immediately, rotten faces protruded from the dark ravine. They were rotting corpse-like monsters. They struggled to crawl out of the ground, seemingly endlessly, and a large group of them crawled out in an instant.

A low-level rotting ghoul?
Li Wei glanced over.

It was found that this was indeed only the lowest level of rotting corpses. Although there had been a third-order plague spreader in it, facing a team full of undead, these rotting corpses alone would not pose a threat no matter how many there were.

The thought just fell.

Li Wei saw that after countless carrion monsters crawled out, a large number of skeleton monsters began to emerge from the cracks in the ground.

The grade is also not high.

These should be the corpses buried under the ancient battlefield, being awakened by the giant snake with some kind of undead secret technique.

But what's the use of having more mobs of this level?

Li Wei only knew that its ability would not be so simple.

Hot scorched earth!

The moon on the side has already been transformed into a lava core, and the sun-like light bursts out of its eyes.

A fiery cloud quickly condensed in the sky, and thunder snakes were densely covered in the cloud layer. The magic power of flames and thunder intertwined, forming a meteorite wrapped in blazing streamer, dragging a long tail of electric flames, and falling blatantly.

boom! !

The dazzling brilliance burst out suddenly.

It was as if a small nuclear bomb had been detonated on the flat ground.

The surging flames spread to an area of ​​hundreds of meters around in an instant, scorching the ground, and the electric light danced in the extremely high-temperature soil layer, turning the entire area into a restricted area for living creatures!
The monster hit by the center of the fire meteorite directly evaporated into a ball of hot gas, while the remaining huge magic power continued to wreak havoc, turning all the monsters that stepped into this area into pieces of coke!

In the face of Yue's large-scale magic that was so strong that it fouled, the giant snake's undead summoning was completely empty talk.

Before the countless revived monsters had time to climb out of the ground, the magma poured out from the continuous triggering of the lava pillars filled the ground fissures.Even the poisonous mist that filled the air was evaporated in an instant.

And at the same time.

Theodora has also quickly approached the giant snake.

Facing this tiny creature that was less than one scale tall, the giant snake didn't pay enough attention.

Until, Theodora cut a sword to its abdomen.

The bloody demon can burst out a three-meter-long sword light from the blade in her hand, cutting through the withered flesh and blood of the giant snake with a single strike, and the sword energy then exploded, bombarding a barrier with a complex mechanical structure.

boom!
The solid mechanical defense layer was directly smashed by the terrifying force, and a mechanical core with a size of two meters was immediately displayed in front of Theodora defenselessly.

"Hoohoo!"

She was about to destroy it.

Suddenly, with a strange cry, a surging black mist hit her without warning.

Without even thinking about it, Theodora quickly slashed out several sword qi.

Chi Chi!

The sword energy easily passed through the mist and struck a translucent spirit body. The spirit body exploded immediately, forming an invisible shock wave of the soul, which made Theodora, who was close at hand, stunned for a moment.

The giant snake retreated immediately.

Although it is a mechanical beast, it also has a certain amount of wisdom. The retreating giant snake quickly coiled its body up, forming a mountain of snakes, completely protecting the core weak points, and not giving Theodora the slightest chance to do anything.

pity.

Li Wei couldn't help but secretly thought.

Just now was the opportunity to end the battle in one fell swoop, but unexpectedly, at the critical moment, the spirit of the dead possessed by the giant snake came out and disrupted Theodora's actions.

But that's fine.

Li Wei saw the ancient mechanical core in the giant snake's body, the quality must not be low, and it would be a waste to destroy it like this...

Although a missed opportunity.

But Li Wei has also thought of other ways to deal with this giant snake.

Shadow Arrow!
He kept waving his staff, shooting at the fish that slipped through the net in the field, and every time he hit a target, a light blue mana band floated out of the monster's body and merged into the staff of Eternal Demon Killer.

A strange fluctuation is brewing in the staff.

hum!
The magic lines on the giant snake's body flickered again, and the strong magic power fluctuations caused the entire space to shake non-stop. Mirror-like silver ripples formed in front of it in an instant, and a terrifying breath awakened in it.

Summoning again?
Li Wei thought.

Immediately, he understood that this was not the ability of the giant snake, but the power of the spirit of the dead that controlled it. However, it borrowed the energy of the giant snake to maximize its magical power.

But it doesn't matter anymore.

Li Wei took a step forward, calmly waving the staff in his hand.

Eternal distance!

An invisible force suddenly descended out of thin air and locked on the giant snake.I saw that the magic lines flickering on its body surface gradually dimmed like a light bulb that had been cut off, until it fell into complete darkness.

And that silver ripple disappeared in a flash.

"Roar……"

Only the unwilling roar of the monster behind the portal remained in the air.

Li Wei rushed forward quickly.

The duration of the eternity gap is limited. Although the specific time limit is not clearly displayed, based on Li Wei's perception of energy fluctuations, he roughly perceives that the energy stored in the staff will be exhausted within a maximum of ten seconds.

Preventing the Corrupted Serpent from releasing its magic is not the key, the key is to get rid of the spirit of the dead within it.

otherwise.

Once the magic ban effect is lifted, it will continue to be alive and kicking.

And right now, as the magic fluctuations are completely stopped in the realm of eternity, it also means that the spirit of the dead will lose all controllable energy, which is the moment to expose the weakest soul body!
Li Wei also couldn't cast spells in the realm of eternity.

Perhaps, by using the original power, he can break through the restrictions of the eternal domain, but he doesn't need to do that.

The best way to deal with souls is to use soul magic as well.

Soul Mastery!

A mysterious wave spread from Li Wei's hands. The power of the soul does not belong to the category of elements, and is not restricted by the eternal gap. It directly penetrates into the body of the giant snake and locks on the only target of the spell.

A burst of strong resistance came immediately.

The soul strength of the spirit of the dead is not weak, and Li Wei can only control it for a second or two through the soul.

enough.

However, a translucent spirit body was pulled out of the giant snake by Li Wei.

at the same time.

He instantly lifted the restrictions of the Eternal Domain.

Chi Chi!

The element was no longer static, and the two blood-red sword lights flew to the front in an instant. Without the protection of the decayed snake's shell, this fragile soul body was cut into two pieces by Theodora!
