Chapter 498 Breaking Through the Ground
After the space changed, the first thing that caught Ryan's eye was a giant machine over 20 meters high.

Next to it, there are two prototypes that have appeared before.

The giant machine resembles a giant octopus, with eight metal tentacles as thick as buckets.

The tentacles were made up of sections of ring-shaped metal, and it was one of the opponent's metal tentacle that had just knocked the Sword Master Tirion away.

"Hmm? Tirion is so careless?"

Just when Ryan was surprised that Tirion, the sword master, could be hit by this thick metal tentacle, the next moment, he immediately realized something was wrong.

Because the moment he walked out of the passage and touched the ground on tiptoe, he suddenly discovered that the gravity around him was changing rapidly.

At this time, Ryan finally understood why Tirion, as a swordmaster, would make such a mistake.

"It can actually slightly affect the surrounding gravity? This mechanical octopus is extraordinary."

Just as Ryan was trying to figure it all out, a metal tentacle came towards him like lightning.

"clang!"

Sparks fly!

A gigantic dragon claw immediately blocked the metal tentacle's attack path.

At this time, Hernandez and Hiram also walked out of the mirror passage and appeared behind Ryan.

However, when the two saw the scene in front of them, they were stunned, especially Hiram, who was completely stunned!

What did he see!
Swordmaster Tirion was besieged by several metal tentacles, and two of the prototypes he had controlled before were now pouring dense metal projectiles at Swordmaster Tirion.

And Ryan's side is even more exaggerated!
The body was half dragon, and the huge dragon claws that expanded to almost the height of a person blocked the tentacles of the giant mechanical octopus without retreating even a single step.

"Is this a dragon vein transformation?!" Hiram muttered with his eyes wide open.

"Hurry! Stop standing there, Hiram, help!"

Hernandez quickly cast the Water Snake to protect himself and Hiram. Compared with Tirion and Ryan, the two were pure wizards, so they naturally had to defend themselves first. When he saw Hiram still standing there in a daze, he couldn't help but yell.

"What should I do?!" Hiram came back to his senses and said in a panic.

In fact, it’s not his fault. The battle broke out too suddenly.

In addition, in Hiram's original understanding, the prototype should be the most dazzling jewel in the crown of ancient goblin technology.

But now it seems that this is not the case at all. Two prototypes appeared in front of one eye, and they were not in the C position.

It was obvious that they were guarding on both sides of the mechanical octopus in front of him. This greatly impacted Hiram's cognition.

In addition, as the dean of the Federal Mechanical Research Institute, combat is not his strong point, but scientific research is.

If Ryan and the other two had not been present, if he and his team encountered the current situation, there would be no doubt that they would have to wait for death.

"Destroy those two prototypes first!"

As Hernandez spoke, he cast a water shield and a water film on the swordsman Tirion in succession.

"Okay! I'll attack now."

Hiram began to chant a spell quickly.

At this moment, Ryan heard the familiar sound of incantations and energy fluctuations, and couldn't help but glance sideways.

He was shocked to find that Hiram was casting a metal magic that he was quite familiar with - 'Serrated Ring'.

Four buzzing serrated metal rings soon appeared in front of Hiram.

But whether in terms of quantity or size of the serrated metal rings, Hiram's serrated ring is still slightly weaker in power.

Moreover, at this critical moment, Hiram still used the third-level witchcraft instead of the crystallized killer move "Sawtooth Cutting Net", which further proved that Hiram's mastery of the witchcraft in front of him was not high.

Ryan took a glance and knew that his response just now was not wrong.

Originally, facing the attack of the mechanical octopus, he could choose to dodge or take it head-on.

But if he dodged, Hernandez who came out from behind might survive, but Hiram would most likely be beaten to death by a tentacle.

Judging from the power transmitted from the dragon claw in his left hand, the attack power of the mechanical octopus tentacles in front of him has reached an epic level. Even if Hiram is an experienced crystallized wizard, he would be beaten into mud if he was caught off guard.

Considering that Hiram had just been very cooperative and Hernandez got along well with him, Ryan immediately decided to block it.

At this time, after its metal tentacle was blocked, the mechanical octopus seemed to sense that Ryan was difficult to deal with, and immediately mobilized its other two metal tentacles to attack Ryan again.

"careful!"

"hold head high!!!"

With a deafening dragon roar, Ryan quickly transformed into the fifth form, transforming into a dark silver dragon, lying in front of Hernandez and Hiram.

Although Ryan has mastered the new Dawn Killer Move 'Bladetooth Spinning Disc', he naturally cannot use it in front of everyone.

Otherwise, you will definitely be regarded as an alien by everyone.

Because this is definitely not the learning speed that humans should have.

If Ryan wants to kill this mechanical octopus quickly, he has few means at his disposal, and the only option left is bloodline transformation.

However, even when it came to bloodline transformation, Ryan did not use multiple heads, nor did he choose to transform into the sixth form - the old dragon form, but only chose the fifth form that had appeared before.

A giant dragon with a body length of more than 40 meters and a body covered with a dark silver metallic luster appeared, and it bit off one of the mechanical octopus's metal tentacle in one bite.

Then, each claw tightly grasped two metal tentacles, and with a whoosh of force, he pulled off two more!
In a flash, the battle situation reversed!

"For a dragon of this size, Lord Ryan's strength after transformation must have just entered the epic level, right?" Hiram was stunned when he saw Ryan's devastating attack.

Hernandez, who had fought with Ryan and seen the dragon transform, naturally had a much higher endurance.

He nodded, confirming Hiram's guess, and said, "Of course not. It has already exceeded the middle stage of the epic and is close to the late stage."

"Hiss~ This is too amazing!"

When Hiram heard Hernandez's words, he couldn't help but gasp and stared blankly at the dark silver dragon in front of him, speechless.

Compared with Ryan, he, at over 160 years old, is probably living like a dog.

"Hiram, attack from the back of the prototype!" At this time, the roar of the Sword Master Tirion brought Hiram's distracted mind back to normal.

It turned out that the Swordmaster Tirion had immediately launched a counterattack when Ryan transformed into a dragon and tore off the metal tentacles.

However, the two prototypes and the mechanical octopus worked in perfect harmony, and the crossfire network plus the ever-changing influence of gravity forced him to choose to withstand it.

Although he was protected by Hernandez's witchcraft, the Sword Master Tirion had never entrusted his life to others, so he naturally would not choose to risk getting injured and force a breakthrough.

In fact, he only needed someone nearby to slightly attract the attention of any prototype to break through the current predicament.

But he saw a sawtooth metal ring that looked like the one Ryan had used before, split into two groups, and stupidly fought against the plasma shields of the two prototypes in front of him. He was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

Fortunately, after hearing Tirion's reminder, Hiram quickly moved the serrated metal ring to the back of the prototype and launched an attack.

Hernandez also summoned four water elementals and launched an attack from the rear of the prototype.

This forced one of the prototypes to give up suppressing Tirion with firepower and instead attack the enemy from behind.

This immediately gave Tirion an opportunity.

"Super God Cross Slash!"

I saw a cross of sword lights, which was perpendicular to each other, rushing towards the prototype that had just turned around to deal with the water element like lightning.

"Hey!"

The plasma shield was instantly broken, and at the same time, the prototype was instantly cut into four large pieces!

The ensuing battle was no surprise.

The remaining prototype could never be a match for the Swordmaster Tirion and his two companions.

Thus, after Ryan transformed into a giant dragon and completely tore the mechanical octopus apart, the battle was over.

At this moment, Hiram seemed to have seen a treasure in his heart. He wanted to go and see the prototype, but when he turned around and saw the mechanical octopus killed by Ryan, he immediately turned around and rushed over, muttering to himself:
“I really didn’t expect that there would be so many prototypes here.”

"And this big guy, the metal tentacles are extremely difficult to make, and the materials are very unusual."

"This energy core is unprecedented. It is different from the large energy devices or furnace cores we use now."

"This should be the special technology of the ancient Goblin Empire."

Hiram ran to the wreckage of the mechanical octopus and looked at a red translucent energy core the size of a human head placed on a metal base with a pious look on his face.

"Hey Hiram, now is not the time to study." Seeing this scene, Hernandez couldn't help but shook his head and reminded.

"Hehe, I'm sorry, Your Majesty, but can I put this energy core away and take it back to the camp?"

"This energy core is most likely man-made, not naturally formed. This is of great reference significance to us." Hiram smiled awkwardly and said eagerly.

However, since it was Ryan who killed the mechanical octopus, Hernandez and Swordmaster Tirion looked at Ryan without expressing their opinions.

Of course, this is not a distribution of spoils, but a kind of respect.

"Okay." Feeling the heat in Hiram's eyes, Ryan nodded immediately and said.

For Ryan, goblin technology is not the main purpose of his trip. Now that the new Dawn Witchcraft is in hand, the next step is naturally the fifth level of the Iron Heart Advanced Meditation Method.

However, this place was very strange and contained unknown dangers, and Ryan had no idea what to do for a moment.

Later, he planned to consult Hiram, who had rich exploration experience, and would naturally do some favors if he could.

"Thank you, Mr. Ryan."

"Small things."

Ryan smiled slightly and said.

As Hiram ran back to the small camp excitedly, Swordmaster Tirion glanced at the mist behind him and asked:
"Shall we go back next?"

"But the problem is, if the ground inside the ruins is moving as Mr. Ryan said before, how can we be sure that backwards is the direction to leave?" Hernandez quickly thought of a question.

"This"

Swordmaster Tirion was stunned. After looking at Ren who was thinking, he turned around and asked Hiram who had run back again:

"Hiram, do you have any good ideas?"

"I haven't thought of it yet. If I had, I wouldn't be trapped here." Hiram shook his head and said.

"Haven't you tried anything these days?" Tirion couldn't help but look at Hiram speechlessly.

"Of course, I released more than ten pathfinder puppets before, but unfortunately, as long as the distance is a little far, we can no longer contact them." Hiram spread his hands and said.

It’s not that he doesn’t work hard, but that he only has this much ability.

"In that case, let's go from the bottom!" Ryan said with a light flashing in his eyes.

"Huh?" Hiram couldn't help but look at Ryan in surprise.

"But Lord Ryan, although it is made of metal, it has been stabilized by some ancient witchcraft similar to solidification. Moreover, according to my judgment, its thickness is at least several meters. You..."

Here Hiram stopped talking.

Although he knew that the young Lord Ryan in front of him was a metal-type dawn wizard, Hiram thought that it would be unlikely to break through the metal ground.

"I don't doubt Mr. Ryan's ability, but is it safer down there than up there?" Hernandez thought for a moment, then looked at Ryan and asked.

"Hernandez, I think you are thinking in the wrong direction. Now it's not a question of safety, but a question of how to get out." Sword Saint Tirion waved his hand, answering Hernandez's words on behalf of Ryan.

"If you're talking about safety, wouldn't it be safer for the three of us to hide in that little camp in Hiram?"

"But do you think that if there is no news about the three of us for a few days, and there is still someone in the Federation who dares to go deep into this ruins, will anyone come to rescue us?"

Hearing this, Ren looked at Tirion approvingly and nodded.

"Tirion, you're right." Hernandez came to his senses after a moment of thought and immediately smiled apologetically.

As the power of his own water magic was suppressed, his angle of thinking deviated for a short period of time.

"Since everyone is okay with this, let's go from the bottom."

As Ryan spoke, his right palm began to shine with a rich dark silver light.

Then, as he bent down and slammed the ground, waves of dark silver ripples spread out from the palm of his right hand.

But unlike the last time, this time the ripples were suppressed by Ryan within a circular area with a diameter of several meters, and the direction of power transmission was not horizontal, but vertical, towards downwards!

Just as Hiram said, the metal beneath the marble brick surface had been solidified by special witchcraft. Ryan had only deformed a small part before, so it was not very difficult. But this time, it was indeed difficult to break through it.

Ryan was almost going to use his domain-type Dawn killer move 'Iron Forest' with all his strength.

"open!!!"

With Ryan's angry roar, a dark silver light shone from his palm. The metal ground became soft as mud and at the same time, it began to fluctuate like boiling water.

The metal ground within the coverage of the ripples was seen to be rapidly dropping. In less than a minute, a large hole with a diameter of more than three meters was melted out!

The scene below the cave entrance immediately attracted everyone's attention.
