Chapter 535 Mechanical Tyrannosaurus
"In that case, let's strike while the iron is hot. I've already learned most of it when I was in the lava lake. The rest shouldn't take too much time."

Soon, Ryan decided to complete his study of the advanced knowledge of goblin engineering from the second memory crystal.

After completing the job transfer, he set off for the imperial capital.

Half a day later.

[Ding! The host has mastered the advanced knowledge of goblin engineering, triggering the subsequent job change - Goblin Engineering Expert (Epic)! ]

[Prerequisites for promotion to Goblin Engineering Expert (Epic): 5. Goblin Engineer (Legend) lv20 or above; 20. Strength 20 points or above, Constitution 40 points or above, Agility points or above, Spirit points or above; . Master advanced knowledge of Goblin Engineering; . Independently produce any five qualified advanced Goblin Engineering artifacts. The current conditions are met! Yes/No to transfer to Goblin Engineering Expert (Epic)? ]

[Note: After changing to Goblin Engineering Expert (Epic), the original Goblin Engineer (Legendary) career panel will be integrated into the Goblin Engineering Expert (Epic) career panel. ]

Without any hesitation, Ryan immediately chose "yes"!
【Start job transfer.】

[Ding! Job transfer to Goblin Engineering Expert (Epic) successful! Strength +3, Agility +3, Constitution +5, Spirit +10! ]

[Obtain the core skill of Goblin Engineering Expert (Epic): Rapid Repair (Active)]

Only seen on the system panel.

The original Goblin Engineer (Legendary) profession panel has disappeared, and instead, there appears the bright purple profession panel of Goblin Engineering Expert (Epic).

The intensity of the purple color is not much different from that of the first epic profession that Ryan obtained, the King of Thousand Blades. This seems to represent that the goblin engineering experts have reached a certain extreme in the field of mechanical manufacturing, just like the King of Thousand Blades in the field of melee combat.

This surprised Ryan.

After all, professions at the same level also have different levels of combat power, so he naturally wants to have a more powerful profession panel.

When his attention fell on the new core skill, Ryan couldn't help but exclaimed:
"Quick repair?"

Soon, he focused his attention on the new core skill description, which was as follows:
[Core Skill: Quick Repair (Active)]

[Quick Repair (Active) Effect: In a fierce battle environment, mechanical devices may malfunction or be damaged at any time. After the skill is activated, the Goblin Engineering Expert can diagnose the problem in a short time and repair it quickly. ]

(Note: The mental energy consumed for quick repair is related to the severity of the fault or damage, and the complexity of the device. At the same time, the greater the mental energy consumed, the faster the repair speed.)
"The core skill of the Goblin Engineer before was emergency modification, and now the Goblin Engineering Expert is rapid repair. Both are core skills with great practical value."

"This is quite different from the previous tailoring and leatherworking. No wonder the career panel of the Goblin Engineering Expert has reached the epic level, while the other two only remain at the extraordinary level." Ryan thought to himself.

A few minutes later.

Ryan, who was about to leave, noticed the familiar 'Destroyer' golem placed in the center of the construction hall.

This was what he had previously notified the faction leader Moria to bring over, so that after he left the Cyrodiil Plateau, Nilheim would also have an epic fighting force.

Although a crystallized peak wizard cannot fully unleash the Destroyer's combat power, it is basically enough for defense.

"I changed my job to Goblin Engineering Expert. I can finally make a super giant golem on the same level as the Destroyer."

Naturally, several images of the goblin advanced engineering drawings quickly flashed through Ryan's mind.

"Large golem level. Mechanical whiptail dragon."

"Super giant metal golem-level mechanical demon tyrannosaurus."

"That's it!"

Soon, Ryan's mind was fixed on a super-giant goblin engineering machinery device whose height was no less than that of the Destroyer - the Mechanical Devil Tyrannosaurus.

The Mechanical Devil Tyrannosaurus can be seen as a super-enhanced version of the Velociraptor.

In addition to the equally sharp sickle claws, there is also a multi-section alloy tail that can perform a "death sweep", which can be regarded as a weapon for group attacks.

In addition, high-energy ray emitters are installed in both eye sockets of its head, which can release "energy rays" to make up for the shortcomings of some long-range attack methods.

The equipment of these devices makes it almost impossible for the Mechanical Devil Tyrannosaurus to have any major shortcomings.

In the ancient Goblin Empire, the high-end combat force of a mechanical legion was composed of mechanical Tyrannosaurus Rex that was thirty or forty meters tall.

However, due to its complex production and high cost, in order to fully unleash the combat power of this violent machine, the operator normally needs to reach the level of a Dawn Wizard. Even if some functions are castrated, a crystallization peak wizard is required. Therefore, their number in a mechanical legion is relatively scarce.

Of course, it’s not that Ryan doesn’t want to make a stronger metal golem, but even in the two memory crystals that record the advanced knowledge of goblin engineering, the production methods of some key core components of higher-level golems are missing.

For example, there is a production drawing of the "Mechanical Tyrannosaurus King" on top of a super giant golem, which was named "Legion Commander Class" by ancient goblins and "Titan Class" by human wizards.

However, it lacks the production method of the power core "Crystal Energy Matrix", and cannot be produced for the time being.

However, after a little thought, Ryan felt that this was normal. After all, something like the 'Crystal Energy Matrix' should be top secret even in the ancient Goblin Empire.

Perhaps, next time when I go to explore the floating city, I will have the chance to obtain relevant drawings or information.

"It just so happens that the Isolde School has an idle large furnace core. In this way, it won't take too much time to make this mechanical Tyrannosaurus Rex by myself."

"The competition with Pantoskok should be in three days."

"You can bring the materials with you first, and after arriving in the imperial capital, you can go to the school to make and assemble them."

So, having already made up his mind, Ryan left the construction hall where he had been meditating for several days.

However, as soon as he went out, he found a stone platform at the entrance of the hall, on which was a terrain sand table of the Cyrodiil Plateau. Around it, people including Moria were discussing something.

"Your Majesty Ryan!" The two old men from the Isolde School were the first to see Ryan walking out of the construction hall and immediately saluted.

"Sir Ryan, that's great, you finally came out." Moria said in surprise.

"Master, what's the matter?"

"Two things. First, the mechanical chocobo you made is very effective. So far, the wizards from our two schools have destroyed more than a dozen alien spider nests around Nilheim with almost no casualties." Moriah said, pointing to the stone platform.

"However, the alien spider swarms are also changing. We have discovered that they have begun to gather spider swarms from multiple nests together. Moreover, there are even more powerful alien spiders among them. The mechanical chocobo seems to be a little insufficient in power."

"Um, Lord Ryan, the more advanced one you mentioned before?" Moria looked at Ryan expectantly and asked.

"Master, I think you will know once you open the door." Ryan smiled and pointed to the assembly hall. As the door of the assembly hall was completely opened, dozens of mechanical sickle-claw dragons and screaming dragons about four meters in height appeared in front of everyone.

"Sigh~"

All I could hear was people around gasping in shock!
"This, this, this is too exaggerated, right?"

“You made this much in four days?”

Moria and several other crystalized wizards stared with their eyes wide open!
After Ryan finished introducing the improved functions of the two different models of mechanical velociraptors, everyone was extremely surprised and said that with such a "weapon", there was no need to worry about the extinction of the alien spider swarm.

"By the way, Master, what's the second thing?"

"Oh, there is something I forgot to tell you. The assessment for our school to be promoted to a large wizard school will also be held in three days, and the location will also be in the imperial capital. I was thinking, since you have a competition, should you discuss this matter with the Imperial Wizard School Union to postpone it?"

"No need, just leave this matter to me." Ryan shook his head and said.

"Okay! I'll listen to you." If it were someone else, Moria would have to say a few more words.

However, since it was Ryan who said this, Moria inexplicably felt a sense of confidence in his heart.

Half an hour later, an imperial airship carrying a large amount of rare ores and a large furnace device flew towards the imperial capital of Tamriel.

at the same time.

The news that the rising star of the Empire, Ryan, was going to compete with the Imperial Guardian Pentos Kirk, who was nicknamed "Storm Cloud", spread like wildfire among the top noble circles in the imperial capital of Tamriel.

A few days ago, after Elder Ivan and Marshal Alfre returned to the imperial capital, they told the royal family and the Senate about this matter.

Although duels between some nobles that could no longer be reconciled were not prohibited, for example, when Ryan was in Meister County, he had a duel with Baron Norman.

But Ryan and Pentoskirk were different. Although it was nominally just a competition, even a fool knew that in a battle between two epic masters, if one was not careful, it was very likely that one of them would be seriously injured or even killed.

After all, when legendary strongmen compete, they can find epic strongmen to act as referees and stop them at the critical moment, but when their strength reaches the level of Ryan and Pantoskok, almost no one can stop them immediately.

So, this is nominally a competition, but the danger is no less than a duel.

The inner circle of the Imperial capital Tamriel.

In the study of the Durham family mansion.

"Ancestor, are you really sure that you can defeat Ryan this time?" Duke Drum couldn't help but said worriedly.

He didn't think that his ancestor was not strong enough, but the speed at which Ryan's strength increased was really too exaggerated.

Another factor is that too much concern leads to confusion.

In the heart of Duke Drumm, the ancestor of Pentoskirk, who was given the title of 'Storm Cloud', could be said to be the backbone of the Drumm family. He was also the fundamental guarantee for the Drumm family to stand at the top of the imperial nobility in the name of the guardian family.

Once the ancestor of the family is seriously injured, even
Duke Durham couldn't imagine what would happen next.

"Don't worry. Half a month ago, Hazas had already entered the level of an old dragon. His strength has greatly increased, and the power of his acid breath has increased by 50%."

"In addition, what surprised me most was that the power of Hazas's innate ability, 'Sleeping Poison Cloud', has also been greatly increased. I have tested it and found that even a Dawn Wizard will fall into a short sleep once he is sprayed."

"Ah?" Duke Durham's face was filled with surprise!

In this case, wouldn't the strength of my ancestors have leapt to the upper-middle level among the guardians of the empire?

However, Duke Durham frowned slightly and looked thoughtful.

Because Hazzas was the dragon companion of his ancestor. If he remembered correctly, it would take at least hundreds of years of slow growth for him to reach the level of an old dragon. How could it happen suddenly?
Pantoskok smiled and said, "Are you confused?"

"Yes, ancestor, it stands to reason," Duke Durham nodded and said.

"You don't need to worry about the specific reasons. Few people know about Hazas's entry into the Old Dragon, and I haven't even told the Empire. However, I still need to report it to the royal family before the competition."

"I see. No wonder you asked me to publicize the competition between you and Ryan among the nobles of the imperial capital. It turned out that you wanted to avoid His Highness Menia from coming out to dissuade us."

After a little thought, Duke Drum was once again impressed by the wisdom of his ancestors, who took every aspect into consideration.

Now, this competition has evolved into a confrontation between conservatives and reformists. It is so powerful that even Her Royal Highness Menia, the "Red Queen" who was once saved by Ryan, cannot stop it by force.

Pantoskok smiled and nodded.

After arriving in the imperial capital, Ryan first went back home and had dinner with his family, Jennifer, Lagre and others. Then, he went to the Bishu Construction School and began to make the "Mechanical Tyrannosaurus King".

This was because Ryan did not want to expose his true strength, which had just been promoted to the late Dawn. In addition, Menia had previously reminded him not to display his multi-headed abilities in front of others, especially the imperial family.

Under the above premise, it is not so easy to defeat Pantoskok with ease.

After all, judging from Pantoskok's confident expression before he left, the other party must have some kind of killer weapon.

Luther and Hallowen had naturally heard about the competition and wanted to meet Ryan, but they were disappointed.

Time flies and it comes two days later.

The Royal Hippodrome is located on the south side of the Imperial Palace.

Due to its special geographical location, only high-ranking nobles of the imperial earl level and above can come here to watch the battle. Therefore, although the number of people does not seem large, most of them are dressed luxuriously, and the ladies are dressed in gorgeous clothes with exquisite makeup.

Logically speaking, the beautiful woman Jennifer, the barbarian girl Lagre, and even Claire who had not yet inherited the earldom, were not qualified to watch the battle, but since one of the two opponents was Ryan, they were naturally arranged to sit in the front row.

Behind them could be heard the whispers of many high-ranking nobles, most of whom were discussing the difference in strength between the two sides, who had a higher chance of winning, and so on.

"Duke Davidson, from what I understand, although this Marquis Ryan has defeated Harold the Sculptor, he is still far behind His Majesty Pantoskok, the Guardian of the Empire, right?"

A middle-aged man in the back row with slicked back hair and wearing a middle-aged aristocratic dress bowed slightly to an old man holding a gold diamond-studded cane and asked.

"No, I am more optimistic about Lord Ryan." The old man named Duke Davis said with a smile.
