Chapter 72 (2/2)

“It is within my expectations. These steel golems have impeccable defenses and are powerful. However their speed and agility are still lacking!”

After training his body, his agility had greatly improved. When his shoulder hit the steel golem, Long Chen found out that the spikes on his shoulder had pierced his golem’s body leaving many large holes. However, it didn’t give the slightest pause to the steel golem’s motion!

However, that wasn’t Long Chen’s goal. When the steel golem was knocked down by the collision, his claws pierced through the center of the runes. At this moment, he used all of his power to pierce deeply into the steel golem’s heart!

“That’s right! Grab the object that is radiating heat and pull it out!”

Following Xiao Xi’s instructions, Long Chen pierced the heart of the steel golem with his claws. Very quickly, he felt a hot stone before he unhesitantly pulled it out!

During the extraction, the previously fiendish steel golem momentarily let out a human-like wail and pleaded.

Long Chen hit its weak spot, against something that originally didn’t live, he was merciless. He directly extracted it and retreated. At this moment, the steel golem suddenly collapsed on the ground helplessly, without any further movements!

“I have gotten my first steel heart!”

Long Chen glanced at the steel heart in his hand and discovered that it was similar to a warm deity jade like of stone, containing nature’s spiritual energy.

However, other than the natural spiritual energy of the steel heart, there were still other auras!

Long Chen immediately placed the steel of heart into his cosmos pouch. The three remaining steel golems already started clanging as they charged towards Long Chen!

“With such a formidable power, but terribly rigid movements, how will you be a match for your father, I?”

With the experience of killing one of the steel golems, Long Chen moved towards the others

“If it is three against one, it will indeed be a little troublesome. I won’t be able to use my full strength, but……”

Long Chen had moved behind one of the steel golems in a flash. The golem suddenly turned around and threw a punch but Long Chen moved like a lizard that was stuck to its back. Long Chen used his claws to pierce the heart of the steel golem from behind. After he retrieved the steel heart, the other two steel golems had just started to turn around!

“What Xiaoxi said was right. I have overwhelming agility and sharp claws that have granted me an extremely great advantage in this round of selection. If it were others who haven’t trained their body, they wouldn’t dare to fight the steel golem head on and only use martial techniques to attack them. However, it would also be extremely difficult to hit the weak spot of the steel golems! Thus, their speed won’t be able to match mine!”

Thinking about Huang Xiang, Long Chen gaze turned icy.

“Huang Xiang trained in the Huang grade core technique. If he has a sharp knife, it will be extremely easy for him to kill the steel golems. No wonder he had spent time to train in core techniques. The reason being that he had a.s.sociates in the Lingwu family, so he had some advantages!”

The other two steel golems followed the same pattern collapsing under Long Chen’s feet. At this moment, the battle had already alarmed the other steel golems.

“Be careful, the steel golems in the area are charging towards you!”

Long Chen nodded. “I need to run across to the other side of the tunnel in half an hour’s time. It seems that it will be suitable for me to slaughter them over there. By then, the time limit will be almost up and it’s also convenient for me to leave!”

Saying which, Long Chen rapidly moved towards the depths of the tunnel. After killing a couple of the steel golems, Long Chen had gradually found a method to deal with the steel golems quickly. First, he collided with the steel golem and clawed them and then, in his second move, he went behind the steel golem and clawed them. These were extremely successful moves to deal with the steel golems!

Under the continuous barrage of attacks from the ever increasing steel golems, Long Chen was able to deal with them at ease, just by using those two moves!

Walking into a vast hemispherical area, Long Chen already saw the same big iron door. However, it was densely packed with steel golems!

At a glance, Long Chen had discovered that there were, at least, hundred of them!

“The Lingwu Family has really spent a lot in this. They used this many steel golems to test only one person. There’s a total of 50 of us. I wonder just how large the total number of steel puppets are.”

“28”

“I have already gathered 28 steel hearts along the way. There are still three minutes before the thirty minutes time limit. There’s enough time, so I will destroy these steel golems and also practice my close combat skills!”

During the battle with the steel golems, Long Chen found out that his close combat skills were still somewhat lacking.

During the process of training, it could be said that he had switched to something he wasn’t used to. When he was young, he trained daily. However, he had put that aside for quite sometime, so he had forgotten some basic moves. There were currently many steel golems, so they could be used as perfect training targets!

Long Chen became like a wolf that entered a flock of sheep. He was like a red phantom who frantically killed the steel golems!

Long Chen was so engrossed in the killing that he didn’t pay attention to the time. It was only until Xiao Xi suddenly said, “Hey! There isn’t much time to the half an hour limit. Don’t you want to head out already?”

Only then, did Long Chen stop and check his cosmos pouch. He smiled bitterly and said, “With a total of 105 steel hearts, I wonder if it is possible to reach the top ten with that.”
