Chapter 505 The Secret of the Ruins

"clang!!!"

After another fierce fight, the two immediately opened up a distance of more than ten meters.

The black fog monster's sharp claws hooked on the metal ground, leaving several deep claw marks with sparks, which quickly offset the recoil force of the collision.

Ryan also took two steps back and readjusted his body.

He looked up and down at the opponent with his three pairs of dragon pupils, trying to find his weakness.

But what a pity!
Judging from the fight just now, the Black Mist Claw Monster in front of him, in terms of strength, speed and physical strength, surpassed all the ferocious species and dragonborn Ryan had ever seen.

In addition, the opponent can also release roars that disrupt the mind and black mist breath similar to dragon's breath.

In other words, the opponent can attack both at close range and from a distance, and has almost no weaknesses.

As for the resistance to different types of witchcraft?
Ryan is not yet able to conduct comprehensive testing.

However, the power of fire seemed to be able to suppress the opponent slightly.

Because Ryan just used two kinds of breath, the effect of the flame breath seems to be better than the effect of the void breath in damaging the enemy.

In other words, advanced fire-related witchcraft is likely to achieve relatively good results in killing enemies.

"Are fire elements vulnerable?"

But the problem is that Ryan is not good at fire magic, or in other words, he has not mastered high-level fire magic. The first and second level fire magic he casts is actually meaningless in the current battle situation.

"In this case, it's a good opportunity to try out a new form."

At this moment, Ryan did not feel any fear in his heart. Instead, there was a hint of excitement in his dragon pupils, because he had never used it since his blood concentration increased and he obtained the sixth form.

There wasn't enough space in the corridor, so he certainly wouldn't choose to transform into the complete old dragon form.

However, he can choose to transform part of his body into an old dragon.

"Sixth form!"

As Ryan roared angrily, the dragon scales on his body began to become darker and darker. To some extent, the color seemed to be the same as the black fog monster in front of him.

The pair of dragon claws became increasingly larger and sharper. Each claw was tens of centimeters long and flashed a cold light.

On the surface of the partially dragonized body, blood vessels began to twist and grow thicker like earthworms, and the muscles swelled further.

"Is this the effect of increasing strength and agility by 30%?"

Ryan felt an explosive force begin to surge in his dragon-like body.

"Snapped!"

With a stomping of the foot, the permanently solidified metal floor was stepped on like mud, leaving a hole with a diameter of about one meter. The excessive friction also caused a wisp of hot smoke to rise from its surface.

Ryan was pushed by the huge reaction force and rushed towards the opponent.

And in the corridor, which was not very spacious after his transformation, there was a humming sound of air flow.

The black fog monster obviously didn't expect Ryan's speed to increase so much all of a sudden. Before he could dodge, he was struck from top to bottom by an increasingly huge claw like lightning.

"Buzz!"

A series of sparks flew up!
This time, facing the sharp claws of Ryan after he turned into an old dragon, the two sickle-shaped limbs on the right ribs of the Black Mist Claw Monster were directly chopped off, and the body was also blown away with great force!
But Ryan's attack was not over.

"hold head high!!!"

Ryan aimed the red dragon head at the black mist claw monster in the air and breathed out a breath of flames!
A bowl-sized scorching flame began to grow rapidly after leaving the dragon's mouth, forming a cone shape with a diameter of several meters, immediately covering the opponent's entire body.

"Fizz!"

In mid-air, the Black Mist Claw Monster, which was hit by the fiery breath, began to roar in pain.

The flaming breath blasted it all the way to the top of the corridor, and as the flames ran out, it fell heavily down.

Ryan could see that the surface of the other party's black body had changed from its original scaly state to some kind of black liquid, as if it was in a softened state, and was emitting wisps of smelly black smoke.

At the same time, perhaps because of the damage caused by the fire, Ryan could clearly feel that the opponent's body seemed to have shrunk.

"It seems to work well!"

"While he is sick, he will die!"

Rennes never has the habit of giving its opponents a break.

With a whoosh, Ryan rushed towards the opponent again.

But the Black Mist Claw Monster also jumped up from its original position. Obviously, Ryan's attack just now was effective on it, but not fatal.

"Ding! Ding! Hiss!"

I saw two black shadows, one big and one small, moving quickly on the corridor, sparks flying all the way. There were collisions between dragon claws and sharp claws, as well as fierce friction between the sharp claws and the metal ground and walls.

The harsh sound of the collision was synchronized with the sound of Mars and never stopped.

Ryan was sure that whether it was the Sword Master Tirion or the Dawn Wizard Hernandez, if they encountered the monster before them, there would be absolutely no chance of survival.

At this moment, the opponent's body shape changed again. His waist became thinner, but the shoulders wielding the sickle became broader. Correspondingly, his strength and speed were obviously improved.

Although the increase was not large, only about 10%, it was obvious that the opponent wanted to cope with his increased attack power by adjusting his body structure.

But it seemed that his strength had reached a certain upper limit of the opponent, so even though the opponent's strength and speed had increased a little again, he was still clearly at a disadvantage.

Ryan could see that under his continuous and powerful chopping, the opponent's two hard and black sickles were already trembling and showing signs of cracking.

"Oh!"

Suddenly, Ryan unexpectedly kicked out with lightning speed, kicking the opponent into the air, and then the red dragon's head breathed out a flaming breath.

"hiss~"

The opponent once again waved his sickle in pain and roared in the air, but he seemed powerless in the face of the scorching and invisible flames.

"clang!"

Just when the flames were about to die out, suddenly, a huge dragon claw emerged from the flames and chopped down at it again!
"Crack!"

In the chaos, the Black Mist Claw Monster swung its sickle to block, but this time, the black sickle, which had been burned by the fiery breath, could no longer withstand the powerful chopped by Ryan's dragon claws and was immediately chopped down.

The opponent was also blasted into the metal floor of the corridor.

"Breath of the Void!"

After three consecutive moves, Ryan followed up with a void breath, then rushed over, aiming at the struggling black mist claw monster on the ground, and attacked with his left and right claws again!

There will be no suspense in the next battle!

After Ryan released his breath several times in succession, the Black Mist Claw Monster finally stopped roaring, but curled up its limbs, its body looking like a roasted baby.

"Snapped!"

When Ryan took his last step, the opponent's shriveled body suddenly broke into pieces like coal!
"Is he finally dead?" "Huh~~~"

Ryan took a deep breath. He had added three attribute points in the battle just now, which meant that he had recovered his physical strength three times.

The old dragon form is indeed powerful, with a significant increase in combat power, but the consumption of physical energy is also greater.

At this time, the broken wounds on Ryan's body were healing at a high speed. He was not uninjured in the battle with the Black Mist Claw Monster.

Before the opponent was eliminated, the wounds on Ryan's body were covered with wisps of black smoke like a cancer, hindering his body's self-healing. But as the opponent was eliminated, the black smoke began to dissipate quickly.

"Is there no harvest like the crystal of divine power?"

Ryan did not immediately search for items on the corpse of the human wizard. Instead, he frowned and thought while waiting for his injuries to heal quickly.

Originally, he wondered if the black mist might be an incarnation of an evil god, but if so, after he killed the evil god, based on previous experience, the system would trigger a related absorption prompt.

But what was strange was that at this moment, when he killed the monster formed by the black mist in front of him, which Ryan named the Black Mist Claw Monster himself, there was no system absorption prompt.

Of course, the rewards for gold skill points are still generous. In the battle just now, Ryan obtained 196 gold skill points.

"So, the other party should not be the incarnation of a god, but some kind of evil creature? Or is it a strange phenomenon caused by the power of a certain god?"

"It seems that only in this way will the system be unable to absorb the problem."

Ryan had a vague guess.

But these are just speculations.

Moreover, after feeling the opponent's combat power, Ryan had given up the idea of ​​continuing to explore the next level.

In his opinion, the opponent's combat power is even stronger than the team of Sword Master Tirion and Water Dawn Wizard Hernandez.

It is conceivable how great the danger will be if the black fog becomes thicker and monsters appear more frequently.

Ryan shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

He walked quickly towards the remains of the human wizard, but when he was two or three meters away, he stopped and cautiously used metal transfiguration to create a rapier and poked the corpse a few times.

After making sure there was no danger, Ryan bent down and quickly searched the other person's body.

Soon, he felt a pendant on the other person's chest.

This pendant has a thin golden chain, and the pendant below is a prismatic crystal. Ryan did not sense any energy fluctuations, so it does not seem to be a powerful magical weapon.

After a little thought, Ryan put it away and continued to explore.

This time, he felt a hard square object in the inner pocket of his wizard robe. He took it out and found that it was a black diary. The appearance and style were vaguely familiar.

"Huh? This material is almost exactly the same as the black leather diary found in the safe of the Walzig School."

Ryan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, quite happy.

"Could it be that this is the sect leader himself?"

Although it wasn't safe here, Ryan still decided to take a quick look.

He quickly turned to the last few pages of his diary:

".Damn it, I don't know if anyone will get this diary, but no matter what, I have to write something down."

"When you read this letter, I will probably be dead."

".But if I am given another chance, I will still come here! Because in addition to the ancient goblin's construction achievements, there is also a secret that only very few people know!"

"A secret that is of special significance to me and all metal wizards!"

"That is the ancient Goblin Empire, the earliest source of the Iron Heart Meditation!"

"That is to say, if you want to obtain the complete version of the advanced meditation method of Iron Heart, you have to come here to find it. Of course, if you are a wizard from other departments, or even not a wizard, I also beg you to spread this news, or even sell it."

"Believe me, metal wizards are absolutely willing to pay a price that satisfies you for this secret!"

what!
Seeing this, Ryan's eyes widened, and it was as if a thunder exploded in his mind!
It turned out to be the case.

It's not only about the knowledge related to constructing golems, it also turns out to be related to the contents after the fifth level of the Iron Heart Meditation Method!
After a moment, Ryan quickly read the last few lines:
"At first, I thought this place was just contaminated by some evil creature, but I didn't expect it to be a nightmare."

"When we arrived at the third underground floor, we found that goblin soldiers infected by evil spirits were everywhere. After we killed them, the evil spirits gathered and turned into even more terrifying evil spirits!"

"This is only the third floor. Warning! Those who come later, the danger here is beyond your imagination. Every step you take may be the last step of your life."

"Take my advice and don't explore any further. The dangers on the third floor are beyond the ability of a Dawn Wizard to withstand."

"For those who come later, I hope you can cherish your life and live well."

"By the way, there is one more thing. If you are willing to help, Magnier and Snape will be very grateful to you. That is to send my pendant to the Valzig School. Thank you!"

"Alas~ I just don't know if Magnier and Snape can bring the Valzig School back to glory again."

"Demon?"

"Hmm? Is the fifth level of the Iron Heart Meditation here?"

Ryan was overjoyed and immediately took out the pendant, focusing his attention on the crystal.

Without hesitation, Ryan quickly probed his mental power into the crystal.

After a few seconds, Ryan, with a look of joy on his face, carefully put the pendant away. It turned out to be the fifth level of the Iron Heart Meditation Method.

With this, as long as he continues to improve step by step, he will be able to successfully enter the level of a fifth-level full moon wizard.

Since the target of this operation had been successfully achieved, Ryan naturally did not intend to stay here any longer and quickly turned around and left.

However, when he passed by the body of the female goblin interrogator that was cut into three pieces, he suddenly noticed that there was a ring-shaped key chain on her waist, with a bunch of keys on it.

"The key to the prison?"

Ryan bent down and picked it up.

But the next moment he keenly discovered that among the bunch of keys, there was a key that was obviously different. It was not made of bronze, but of some kind of stone.

"This shouldn't be the key to the prison. Could it be the key to the interrogation room just now? Interesting."

But Ryan weighed the key chain in his hand, glanced at the room on the side, thought for a moment, and decided not to explore any further.

Perhaps, subsequent exploration will yield some other gains, but it will also require taking considerable risks.

Soon, Ryan's figure disappeared in the prison area.

Not long after Ryan left.

Suddenly, a series of sparks appeared on the floor of the corridor in the prison area, and a huge sharp gear seemed to be cutting up from the negative third floor below.

If you switch the perspective to the third floor below ground, you can find that the owner of the gear is actually a huge mechanical dinosaur that looks like a Tyrannosaurus Rex, and the gear is located at the end of its tail. At this moment, the tail is raised high and cutting the metal ceiling at the top.

Around the huge mechanical dinosaur, there are densely packed mechanical devices shaped like small velociraptors.

Many were walking back and forth, and many were standing still. Around them were mummified goblins in military uniforms preparing something.
