248: Powerful [Mechanic]

"What kind of ability is that? The needles on its chest have started to move!"

"Is that the ability of the Gold armor? It's completely different from [Fire Finch] and [Sea Spirit]!"

The three needles on the chest, resembling a clock, especially the thinnest one that looked like a second hand, began to move rapidly.

It was like a rapid heartbeat.

Gongye Shiyi could also feel power continuously accumulating as the second hand turned.

The monster lying on the ground also sensed the danger at this moment, struggling to shake its head and trying to stand up.

But its dizzy head simply wouldn't obey its commands.

This was clearly not right.

This was a proper monster, after all; even after taking such a powerful impact, it should have recovered by now.

How could it remain dizzy for so long, unable to crawl back up from the ground?

"Does the Gold armor's attack come with stun and crowd control effects?!"

By the time the needle on the chest had rapidly completed a full circle, the monster finally shook its head and stood back up.

From the moment the second hand started moving until it completed a full circle, it had taken about three seconds.

And Gongye Shiyi's aura also reached its peak when the second hand completed its full circle.

On his raised arm, one could see through the cutouts in the armor the rapidly rotating gears interlocking beneath it.

The copper pipes connecting the arm to the shoulder also began to spew out hot steam.

"Roar!"

The monster also roared at this moment, waving its claws and charging toward Gongye Shiyi.

But having just recovered from its dizzy state, it was now like a lamb rushing impatiently into the tiger's maw.

As Gongye Shiyi swung the right arm of the armor, the entire arm, like a mechanical heavy fist being thrown, erupted with a piercing boom.

That was the sound of the air rubbing at extreme speeds, breaking the sound barrier!

The accumulated terrifying power poured out in an instant, colliding with the claws the monster swung.

"Bang!"

Under the intense collision sound, there was no suspense at all.

The monster's hard claws took the brunt of it, turning into powder under the powerful impact the moment they collided.

Then came the palm, then the arm.

Bone armor, muscles, and bones offered no resistance at all, all shattering under the powerful impact.

The monster's eyes widened; it desperately shifted its body to the side, swinging away, and was sent flying by the force of the impact.

The knocked-back monster slammed into the ground like an inflated balloon.

The stone tiles laid in the park were instantly crushed into powder; soil and vegetation flew up, creating a steaming crater.

The monster lay in the center of the crater, one arm and shoulder already gone.

The wound was steaming with hot white vapor, as if boiling.

And on the shattered shoulder, no blood flowed from the exposed wound.

One could only see muscle that looked boiled, along with metal artificial objects embedded in the muscle.

If not for the resistance of these metal artificial objects, and the monster's desperate attempt to dodge the attack,

its entire upper body would likely have been completely shattered by this single blow.

This attack power!

This unparalleled destructive power!

It's too strong!

This is a complete crushing of power; even though the thing in front of him is only an F-class monster, it couldn't even withstand a single blow from the Gold armor [Machinist]!

You have to know, the current [Machinist] has just been summoned, and the Summoner's compatibility is only 52%.

The power of this basic armor hasn't been fully developed yet, yet it can unleash such astonishing attack and destructive power.

Gongye Shiyi retracted his fist, and the copper pipes on his back spewed out large amounts of white steam, like a beast emitting a low roar.

The white steam that was spewed out wrapped around Gongye Shiyi's armor, adding a touch of dominance to the cold metal armor.

The rough and domineering edges of the armor looked even more like a metal beast in this white steam, staring at the enemy in front of it.

"Click."

With a crisp metallic sound, the needle symbolizing the minute hand on the clock-like dial on the chest of the [Machinist] ticked forward one notch.

Under Gongye Shiyi's perception, he could keenly sense that the power of the armor had also become slightly stronger.

The consumption of stamina had also increased.

Although the dial on the chest of the [Machinist] resembled a clock, and the three needles were constructed like those of a clock,

they did not represent time or real-world time.

A clock's second hand and minute hand need to tick sixty times to complete a full circle.

But for the [Machinist]'s dial, the second hand needs sixty ticks to complete a circle, the minute hand thirty, and the hour hand ten.

The minute hand only ticks once when the second hand completes a circle, and the hour hand only ticks once when the minute hand completes a circle.

To make the second hand move, one needs to charge up.

When charging an attack, one cannot attack or defend, and once charging is interrupted or stopped, the second hand will quickly return to zero like releasing pressure.

And after each completed charged attack, the minute hand ticks once, and the power of the armor increases slightly.

This is the ability of [Machinist]: Charging.

Lin Ti had studied for a very, very long time to design this armor.

Using the monster core of Mu Men Jin Mu as material, he melted it into Gold crystals.

Using this as the armor's energy core and his own light power, he created the [Machinist Armor]!

"Roar!"

"Roar, roar!"

The intense pain made the monster incredibly angry.

Even without clear reason, it could realize that if not for the protection of the metal objects on its body, that last blow would have almost killed it!

It had just brushed past the shoulder of death.

This made the anger in its heart uncontrollable, and the pain only continued to stimulate the anger within.

The metal armor objects on its body, which were connected to its body, also lit up with red light.

The metal tubes that spread from the armor and were deeply inserted into its body also began to heat up as if overloaded.

The blood inside its body kept flowing along the metal tubes into this set of metal armor.

The armor seemed to be nourished by this monster blood, continuously emitting a power that made people's hearts palpitate.

"What is going on with this monster? What is that obvious artificial armor on its body?!"

"It can actually amplify the monster's power!"

Mumen Se, who possessed Monster Power, could clearly feel the Monster Power in the monster's body continuously increasing.

It was being amplified by the power of that artificial alloy armor.

Gongye Shiyi clenched his fist, wanting to charge up again.

The already heavily injured monster definitely couldn't withstand another charged punch from him.

However, how could the monster, having already suffered once, give him another chance to charge up?

This kind of mindless monster often possesses combat intelligence that exceeds that of ordinary monsters.

This combat instinct drives these monsters to make more correct and precise judgments during battle.

It completely transformed into a beast, its three limbs close to the ground, rushing toward Gongye Shiyi like a beast.

Its wide-open mouth revealed dagger-like fangs, biting toward Gongye Shiyi.
