Chapter 2526 - Meeting Li Keer Again (1/2)
When he fought with his Gold Robot General, Han Sen was like a wolf entering a sheep pen. Wherever his swordlights went, his enemies fell to pieces. Those King class Steel Armors couldn’t withstand the weakest of his strikes.
“Xenogeneic King hunted: Steel Armor. Xenogeneic gene found. Obtained Steel Armor beast soul.”
After killing one hundred Steel Armors, Han Sen finally earned a beast soul.
The steel castle appeared to be tired now, though. Its speed had slowed, and not as many Steel Armors were coming out of its doors. It looked like a gasping beast after a long run.
There were fewer than two hundred Steel Armors, all-in-all. Before today, Han Sen would have had a hard time tracking down and eliminating that many. But the Gold Robot General went through them like a hot knife through butter. He mopped up the last of them in moments.
When Han Sen turned to go after the steel castle, the space around it vibrated, trembling like it was being shaken by some cosmic earthquake. A crack in space opened behind the weird steel castle, and the monster entered the space crack and disappeared.
Han Sen was shocked. The bronze furnace was happily munching on the bodies of the Steel Armors, placing them in its forge-like belly.
But because the furnace was small, after eating eight of the Steel Armors, it couldn’t consume any more.
“Where is the deified xenogeneic you were talking about?” Han Sen asked the bronze furnace.
The bronze furnace whistled like a steam engine and spat out more fire. The fire became words, and they said, “Didn’t it just run away?”
“That steel castle was a deified xenogeneic?” Han Sen mumbled in surprise. And then he asked, “Can I still find it?”
He had wanted to see what else might be able to come out of the steel castle, which was why he hadn’t tried to enter it. But now that it had run off, Han Sen was starting to regret his approach.
“Can’t find it,” the bronze furnace said by spitting out words.
Han Sen shrugged his shoulders. He turned around and rummaged through the broken Steel Armors for their xenogeneic genes. There was a steel cogwheel in each of their hearts. Those were their xenogeneic genes.
Han Sen wasn’t going to swallow their entire bodies like the smithy furnace. He dug out the core xenogeneic genes and placed them inside Destiny’s Tower.
Han Sen put away the Gold Robot General beast soul. He didn’t need it any longer.
Han Sen was still collecting his core xenogeneic genes when he saw someone approach. He raised his head. It was that yellow-clothed woman again.
Li Keer had followed the trail left behind by the bronze furnace’s presence. She had been quite shocked to find that her Very High Sense couldn’t pick up Han Sen’s trail. Her only hope of finding him was to follow the leftover presence of the bronze furnace.
As soon as Han Sen came into view, Li Keer also saw the Steel Armors scattered all across that zone of space. She paused for a moment to stare at the sight, dumbfounded.
She recognized those Steel Armors for what they were. She knew that the Steel Armors came from a steel castle that was a core deified xenogeneic. She could only see the bodies of the Steel Armors, though. She didn’t see the steel castle anywhere. The steel castle, she surmised, had probably run away from Han Sen.
That realization was stunning.
During the fight with the Gold Armor General, Han Sen’s main attack had come from Dragon One’s deified treasure, the Dragon Tattoo Tooth Dagger. Li Keer understood that.
