Chapter 271: Third & Fourth Mechanism of the Dark Book! (2/2)

After he put the intermediate-level of the demonic-ranked technique in play, something so shocking happened that even he found his throat turning dry and felt his eyes widening.

All the spider crawlers that had a thick defensive shell on top of them broke apart into hundreds of shards as if they were so fragile that a mere gust of wind caused them to shatter.

”Who created this technique? Whoever the hell he is, I don't want to fight him, and I definitely don't want to get on his bad side.”

Elliot was sure that the creator of this technique was a mass pervert who got off from face-flapping civilization and pulverizing planets. This technique was too overwhelming, so its creator got to be even stronger than him. He didn't want to fight such a person as he knew that there was no chance he would chance against said person.

Elliot had just gotten rid of the spider when the four giant constructs around him gave birth to new spider babies!

”Ah, I see how it is.”

Elliot understood that the four giant constructs could spawn mechanical monsters endlessly. To put an end to this endless cycle, he needed to destroy them.

Elliot made his move. What did he do? He shattered everything, from the spider crawlers to their birthing machines, into numerous shards. He directly dismantled things that even mountain pulverizing war machines couldn't deal damage to, ah!

He broke the third mechanism, which according to the creator, was only so hard to break that any person who manages to do so would get only 500 skill essence.

Well, what he got this time was still more than both the previous two times combined.

But he was still a far cry from 2000 skill essence.

”Hopefully, breaking the fourth mechanism will net me enough to upgrade the demonic-ranked technique to the special rank.”

Elliot was pretty optimistic about his future.

What he didn't know was that whoever created this technique intentionally made the fourth mechanism so hard to break that no one would be able to clear it.

Many things made it impossible to clear. The first was that a person needed to destroy mechanical armies birthing constructs in eight different areas. Each area had four of them. All of them could produce an unlimited number of monsters. Every twenty seconds, a giant construct would generate a wave of monsters. That meant that if a person took a minute to reach the next area, he would be facing 12 waves of monsters. The other was that each army birthing construct came equipped with an energy shield that could absorb a hundred thousand units of damage, meaning no one below the Magic Emperor or King stage could break them in one go. The last was that anyone would get exhausted and burned out before ever reaching the eight areas. Breaking this perverted mechanism that tested the limit of combat itself was impossible for mortal beings who were subjected to the limitations of their carbon bodies!
