Star Forge Titan

After letting the innocent adventurers keep a safe distance, he raised one hand, a right hand with five fingers slightly spread out.

"It seems you don't intend to hand over the fragments peacefully."

The boy's cheerful voice echoed in the solemn air.

The hybrid insect beast lowered its head slightly, and a sound similar to the friction of an insect's mouthparts came from behind its closed visor.

This picture is so subtle that it's hard to tell who the villain is...

"Hehe, that's better." Alvin, who still had the leisure to complain, smiled slightly, then clenched his right hand instantly, and even the light in a large area around him was also grasped in his palm!

Fist! His clenched right hand was enveloped in a violent, unstable, and intense light. It was the bursting light that struggled to slant out from between the young man's fingers!

Plasma Beam Punch——100 bursts!!!

Chapter 115: Ancient Countryside Accent

What kind of destructive power can a large-caliber artillery piece cause?

Unlike the limited expression in literary and artistic works, real large-caliber modern artillery, such as the large-caliber naval guns once carried on battleships.

If carrying out land artillery bombardment missions, it has the ability to penetrate 9-meter-thick concrete fortifications. If the shell falls on the ground, one shot can form a huge crater with a diameter of 15 meters and a depth of 6 meters.

Now, the plasma beam fist, whose single shot power is not inferior to the battleship's main gun, is bombarding one point with a high frequency of more than a hundred times!

Punch! Powerful punch!

Ivan's soul ability to control light increased the brightness of the surrounding space several times, and the "Force String Domination" confined the power of the one hundred light punches that were comparable to heavy artillery attacks to a very small range.

Under such heavy bombardment, even a semi-underground permanent fortress covered with heavy metal armor and several meters thick concrete fortifications can be easily penetrated and destroyed.

Even the aftermath of the attack caused the undulating sand dunes in the surrounding terrain to rise and fall like real waves, as if the entire area had instantly transformed from solid land into an ocean composed entirely of liquid, and then fluctuated under the impact of huge rocks falling from the sky.

As for the location of the hybrid insect beast that was hit directly by the plasma beam fist, no one else can see clearly what happened there at this moment?

The sand particles raised by the force of the fist flew directly to a height of hundreds and thousands of meters in the sky, and the vast area below was covered by a thick cloud of smoke that was as thick as a sandstorm and could not be penetrated by the naked eye.

After a long while, the yellow smoke finally dissipated, leaving behind a lava lake covering nearly a hundred meters. More precisely, the dark red molten material flowing within was entirely sand, transformed into molten glass by the high temperature and high pressure environment.

In the air, the tall young man standing with his back to the sun had his face shrouded in a backlit shadow, only his bright eyes still emitted two dazzling golden rays.

"You insect thief, you are stronger than expected." Alvin muttered to himself and cast his gaze on the figure still standing in the dark red liquid glass ocean.

At this moment, the young Titan's messy black hair was rising and dancing towards the sky like flames against gravity, and the golden-red crown of light surrounding his forehead also marked the full stimulation of his soul power.

The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength.

Even though he was far from reaching his limit, he still threw out these one hundred plasma beam punches seriously.

The strangely shaped hybrid insect beast was actually able to withstand it, which showed that its strength was quite good. At least in terms of physique, it was not inferior to an ordinary fourth-level crowned person.

It seems a bit funny to say this, it is really interesting to connect the crowned with the ordinary...

Ivan couldn't help but smile, and the next moment, the expression on his face gradually faded away in the air, and the tall and strong figure had completely disappeared from the spot.

"The combat power is difficult to calculate, the total is estimated to be more than 100,000, and the body stability is below the warning value..." In the melted red glass ocean, the hybrid insect beast with evenly cracked shells all over its body made intermittent sounds, and dangerous light flashed in its red compound eyes which were also covered with scales.

Immediately afterwards, the dark red ocean formed by the melted glass immediately stirred up huge waves, because something was falling heavily from the sky at an extremely high speed!

Over there was Ivan. He slammed his body into the center of the dark red ocean like a cannonball. A large amount of molten liquid glass rose high into the sky like waves, then quickly condensed and shattered in the cold air, turning into pieces of crystal clear glass snow that flew everywhere.

Without any hesitation or mercy, an extremely heavy punch that seemed to tear the earth apart hit the center of the hybrid insect beast's body.

Crack! The hard shell, strong enough to withstand a hundred consecutive plasma punches, shattered like brittle glass. Fluorescent green fluid gushed outward, and even when it landed on the molten high-temperature glass, it immediately emitted a hissing sound of acid corrosion. However, the part that spurted forward was completely blocked by an invisible barrier.

Always shrouded in an invisible cloak composed of multiple defensive capabilities, Alvin is not afraid of such petty means at all.

It was just industrial-grade acid; even if it was enhanced with magical energy, it wouldn't be able to penetrate this first layer of defense. Furthermore, even if it came into direct contact with the skin, the fortified body represented by the perfect physical attributes wouldn't be afraid at all.

Those are muscles that have been trained for a long time!

One punch pierced the chest, and the second punch went straight to the hybrid's head. Ivan was not fooled by the hybrid's human-like appearance, especially since the hybrid's face was completely covered with a shell, which made him feel less psychologically burdened when fighting.

In addition, the huge changes in the five wizard kings over the past hundred years and the atrocities they committed later made him extremely vigilant.

You know, this seemingly insignificant little insect beast in front of him is very likely related to the pure color poison that has lasted for thousands of years and has never been completely purified. He doesn't want to be defeated by the remaining minions after defeating five bosses, not to mention that the opponent may not be a minion but a hidden boss...

Oh wait, I am also a BOSS, and a world BOSS after a major version update, so it’s okay.

The heavy punch aimed at the hybrid insect beast's head was suddenly blocked by something. Alvin narrowed his eyes and noticed that what blocked his fist were two strong forelimbs wrapped in silver shells.

The Sky Fighter's innate ability allows him to unleash the power of his fist configuration with just a thought, and this seemingly ordinary punch actually contains a variety of mixed and explosive fist configuration powers. It is a real and genuine Heavenly Fist!

But this punch was actually blocked?

Even if it was not fully charged, it was still a Heavenly Fist that contained the power of an explosive boxing configuration.

Wow, this thing in front of me is definitely not an ordinary soldier!

As this thought arose in his mind, the expression on Ivan's face began to change.

It was not an expression of surprise or any other shame. The black-haired boy's originally lazy eyes immediately became extremely concentrated, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily curved upwards into an arc as cold and hard as a knife edge.

What?! Isn't this a surprise?! My rival!

But in the next second, the turn of events surprised him even more.

"Unable to defeat them, activating the backup hidden magic..." The hybrid insect beast covered with a silver shell actually spoke in the most standard Uranus language!

That was the language used by the Titans who founded the Sky Dynasty. It was a hymn sung to the entire world by the oldest first generation of Titans. Every character spoken in it would cause the originally free and unstable environmental magic in the surrounding atmosphere to tremble.

Following these unexpected words, the hybrid insect beast's muscles began to swell rapidly, and it opened its arms to hug Ivan tightly.

In the blink of an eye, the two fighting individuals were completely swallowed up by a sudden explosion of strong light!

Chapter 116 Hiding in the Nine Lands

The explosion of an individual that was only about two meters in size was no less powerful than the one hundred consecutive plasma beam punches fired by Ivan.

It was as if its entire body was filled not with flesh and blood, but with high-purity TNT, or some other even more dangerous ultra-high concentration explosive.

The deafening roar of the explosion caused the air to become solid, pushing outward layer by layer, leaving the ground soft and undulating like the sea. For unknown reasons, the force of the explosion was forcibly transferred to the ground, creating a canyon-like crack running straight through the center of the explosion. Chunks of ground and countless grains of sand were also thrown high into the air.

The adventurers, who had thought themselves safe, paled in fear. It turned out that the distance they were in was anything but safe. The falling sand alone carried a force far greater than that of rain, sending them scurrying for cover. They had barely escaped, relying on their status as transcendents.

It is hard to imagine what kind of tragic situation they would encounter if they were closer, and they cannot imagine what kind of explosive impact the two strong men who are directly at the center of the explosion would face.

At this point, no one doubted the identities of the two warring parties. They must be the now famous Overlord and the enemy he was hunting.

Only that Overlord and those who dare to oppose him could possibly unleash such earth-shaking and terrifying power.

At the center of the explosion, his heels planted on the source of the cracked canyon, Ivan's figure appeared to be about three meters tall. Only after the thick smoke gradually dissipated did he reveal the gorgeous pure white armor on his body.

The Invisible Heavenly Clothes in standby mode could hardly withstand the violent impact that erupted just now. After sensing the crisis a few moments in advance through perfect consciousness, this layer of Invisible Heavenly Clothes, which relied on its own dissipated magic power to form invisible air armor, immediately added a pure white light armor forged with light in addition to the original protection, which completely withstood the impact of the explosion.

In addition, in order to prevent the adventurers who did not evacuate far enough from the periphery from being drawn in after the full explosion of this force, Alvin immediately activated the higher level of force string control, forcibly absorbing the impact of the explosion while transferring most of this force to the ground beneath his feet, so there was a crack in the ground as deep as a canyon.

At this moment, a large amount of sand mixed with dark red molten glass that had not yet solidified on both sides of the canyon poured into it like water. The whole scene looked as horrifying as hell. Even from hundreds of meters away, one could still feel the burning heat and abyss-like darkness.

"It's incredibly decisive that he actually chose to self-destruct." Ivan's slightly surprised voice came from behind the white mask.

But he knew that things were far from as simple as they appeared. The silver-white hybrid insect beast would not choose to die so easily.

After the explosion, a layer of empty shell still remained on its body. At first glance, the broken shell seemed to have been destroyed by the explosion from the inside, so that it was torn apart from head to toe by an exaggerated wound.

However, the fact that a shell could be left behind after such an exaggerated explosion is itself very suspicious.

One cannot help but wonder whether the other party is using the explosion to cover up their other actions.

Ivan's golden eyes scanned the surroundings. The magic fluctuations generated by the forward explosion made the overall magic flow in the surrounding environment extremely chaotic, so that even his eagle eyes that could directly see the magic fluctuations could not catch the enemy's trace for a while.

With a gentle wave of his hand, the fist formation was completed silently. In less than three seconds, the wind grew from small to large, turning into a violent hurricane that was enough to blow away all the dust and smoke covering the entire venue.

Even without deliberate practice, after being promoted and awakening the power of the soul, Ivan's control of the atmosphere with the new style of Lan Dou boxing has reached a higher level.

He took out a golden compass that was more exquisite than the bird-divination compass sold outside. The three rotating pointers inside actually floated in the air, and then began to perform multi-point positioning in three-dimensional angles based on the invisible spherical three-dimensional space.

As long as the Gaia Disc fragments weren't discarded, the thief's location would eventually be revealed. However, the chaotic magical environment around them...

Just as Alvin thought, the rotating compass needle was unable to point to a clear direction until five minutes later, and was obviously disturbed by the chaotic magical environment.

Without wasting any more precious time, the black-haired boy jumped up directly from the spot. The powerful force caused the ground to explode into an exaggerated network of cracks of considerable scale, and his figure soared into the sky like an arrow, even the remaining clouds that had just been driven away were instantly pierced through.

The biplane that had been circling for a long time came to greet him immediately upon seeing this. By the time Ivan stepped on the biplane and returned to the Rogilas, which was hovering a thousand meters in the air, an intense and orderly search process had already begun in the bridge.

"Increase the magic power input and let the ship's divination compass conduct an active search." Before entering the door, Heidi's calm voice came from inside.

Before leaving, Alvin used his captain's authority to give the female mage a second-level command. As magical creatures, the cats and bugs naturally had no objection to this. Coupled with the rational characteristics of the female mage's dual identities as a scholar and spellcaster, the cooperation between the two sides can be said to be excellent without any error.

Alvin had originally planned to issue the search command himself, but now the relevant action has obviously been launched in advance.

"The bird divination compass has already started its active search. I believe there will be results soon." Without even looking back, Heidi said directly after hearing the sound of footsteps and the automatic door opening:

"But..." The female magician looked at the black-haired boy beside her with a strange look. The boy had restored his height to 1.9 meters and was in a standby state to save energy.

"Are you really only level three?"

"It's genuine." Ivan smiled and sat back in his captain's seat, and replied in a very relaxed tone:

"Tsk, this is incredible, the great natural king, the beloved son of Ishtarli?" Heidi smacked her lips slightly, and then suddenly said something out of the blue.

"Hey, what is that?" Alvin calmly countered the question with a question.

"Tsk, he's much more mature than his young appearance." The female mage rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction and did not continue to dwell on this issue.

But when she turned around, a look hotter than fire rose in her eyes, and even the never-melting ice fields in the north could not extinguish it.

"Meow!" The cat, which always had rare mint-colored fur, cried out in surprise next to the operating table.

Everyone's eyes followed the paw pads of its raised pink paws to the three-dimensional projection in the center of the bridge.

At this moment, a highlighted target is moving rapidly below sea level on the topographic map.

"Wow, they actually escaped directly into the underground along the canyon that I tore open with my transferred power?" Alvin showed a look of sudden enlightenment.

Then, the big chief captain immediately issued new orders.

"Keep chasing!"

Chapter 117: The Enemy Reappears

For three days and three nights, the pursuit continued.

The Logilas sailed above the sea of ​​clouds, while the cats and bugs also patrolled the area, carrying their bird compasses. Their vehicles were biplanes similar in size to the large aircraft models from Ivan's past life.

Furthermore, these furry little experts fully exploited the pre-set characteristics of the magical creatures, as if various technologies were engraved into their genetic genes, and the corresponding parts could be unlocked as soon as the conditions allowed. The aircraft, originally only at the level of a biplane, was gradually optimized into a more flexible and high-speed monoplane in just a few days.

Although it seemed like just a flash of inspiration from a cat-worm, meowing strangely, he transformed into a cat-shaped husky and wielded a wrench and screwdriver to dismantle the upper wing of the biplane. However, the subsequent series of improvements made Ivan's eyelids twitch, and the look he gave the learning machine became increasingly strange.

He was extremely suspicious about what kind of knowledge and information the ancient giant kingdom contained that could enable the cats and insects that completed the cultural heritage to become so capable.

I even had a subtle urge, why not... try it too?

Shaking his head to put the strange idea behind him, Alvin looked again at the real-time terrain map holographically projected in the center of the bridge.

Incidentally, this thing didn't exist originally. After all, even the most detailed warship models used for wind tunnel testing wouldn't be able to reproduce this aspect perfectly. The magical device, resembling a holographic projection, was actually something Cat-Maw made while renovating the bridge's interior. It was called something like the 'Dora Ding Dong Pa Pa Type 1 Meow Meow Projector,' a name that's difficult to pronounce in the now-common Huma language.

On the holographic map, a dot of light flickered in and out. It was the hybrid insect-beast, locked onto by the ship's large aurora compass and venturing deeper into the earth. The thick soil also interfered with the aurora compass, preventing it from maintaining a firm pinpoint of the target's location. This was why the cat-bugs, armed with small aurora compasses, were constantly patrolling the area, preventing the target from circling the perimeter and escaping to the surface.

Ivan was certain that the bizarre hybrid possessed some ability to rapidly adapt to its environment, but its movement speed underground was relatively limited, making it impossible for it to escape the Rogilus's pursuit. If it truly attempted to escape, it would inevitably return to the surface to increase its speed.

"You haven't rested yet?" Heidi's voice came from behind. The female mage walked directly into the bridge in a silk pajamas. There were only two humans on this battleship anyway, so she simply became casual.

Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that this cunning woman has other intentions.

Normal, not as big as Afrediya...

Ivan glanced at the thin and undulating silk fabric and said calmly:

"It's only three days. I just hope to catch that unstable factor as soon as possible."

"What a hardworking young man." Heidi shrugged, letting the wide collar of her pajamas slide down her shoulders a little inadvertently.

When she realized that the other party was indeed not paying attention to her, the female mage showed a thoughtful look in her eyes, and the look she gave the black-haired boy was even more certain.

As for the Silent Desert today, the five tyrants who oppressed the desert people have all been defeated, and even the five statues of the Witch King erected in the Fist Fighter Academy to spur young fighters to become stronger have all been smashed.

While the remaining stragglers, transformed into sand bandits, would still pose a threat to various settlements, they were ultimately no match for the Fist of Freedom, mastering the new style of Arashi, and would inevitably be systematically defeated in the coming period. Instead, the warriors were dedicated to opening up trade routes and restoring agriculture, the economy, and other essential aspects of production and life.

In Ivan's view, the true destabilizing force in this region was the hybrid insect-beast that had escaped with the two Gaia Disc fragments. He strongly suspected that this creature wasn't just a puppet carrying out the Witch King's final orders, but rather an executor with its own will, or at least a specific agenda.

The pure poison, this ancient evil force whose remnants alone could cause harm to spread for thousands of years, made him feel deeply uneasy.
