Steel steam and flame

"If the salary is the mechanical dragon behind you, I wouldn't mind taking the initiative to help you eliminate all pollution in the factory." The man with white flowers on his body was surprisingly polite. His appearance was unclear, and his head was wrapped in dense white flowers. A very high concentration of pollution flowed from his body, and Defoni even had the illusion that the pollution inside the factory might have been caused by him, rather than a collective increase in the entire region.

Defoni's perception and gaze now went to the warehouse behind the two people. After the flame-like red pollen fell, an abnormal feeling rose in his heart. The pollen itself was not dangerous, but being connected together did not make him feel at ease.

Pollen has already penetrated into the warehouse building through various cracks. They don't fall very fast, they settle at a relatively slow speed, and a gust of wind can lift them away.

A very few of them were already close to the mechanical dragons among them, and fell on the metal scales, like naturally falling dust, without any movement for a while. But it's more like a short period of silence. After shoveling the soil, digging a small hole, and burying the seeds, you have to wait for some time for silence.

As Defoni's mood became more and more settled, several mechanical dragons that dropped pollen vibrated slightly. The vibrations quickly gained strength and then turned into knocks from the inside out. Some metal scales were already raised at this time, and foam-like proliferative tissue was squeezed out from the gaps. It expanded rapidly after being exposed to the pollution in the environment, until the pollution climbed up, and large white flowers bloomed using them as a nutritional base. .

Before proceeding to the next step, Defoni has already simulated the results in the spiritual world - the most acceptable one is that the stamens of the white flowers continue to explode, producing pollen, which then acts as a catalyst to accelerate the growth of the mechanical dragon. Living tissues eventually cause them to die in the endless proliferation of themselves;

The result that he was most worried about was that through the flame-like pollen, the proliferating tissues included the mechanical dragons, making them more experimental creatures and thus controlled by the enemy.

"It seems you know." Alder took a few steps forward and said, "I'm surprised, Defoni, because you really created the Mechanical Dragon in this factory. Not long ago, there was When the news came that the goods you secretly transported had been intercepted, I still didn’t believe it at that time. Because nearly three years ago, the Mechanical Dragon was just a plan, a theoretical product, and the drawings were incomplete. But less than three years ago, Year,,,"

Alder tilted his head, "I never thought it would reach this amount. I admit that my judgment was wrong, and I should have helped you at the meeting. Although I didn't believe that the Mechanical Dragon had a chance of success at that time. However, you don't have to worry now. , we are just destroying the remaining ones and will not take them away for the time being. Those things that do not look very smart will only be received by members of the engineering class after there are no enemies here. "

"You still have some time to see them, please cherish them. At the same time, thank you for your efforts, and I will emphasize to others that they are all from your hands, and I am just responsible for receiving them."

Nodding politely and bending down, Alder put on a business-like fake smile. He did not forget to slide his hands forward, and a huge invisible barrier had formed in front, blocking the blue arc flames from Defoni's kinetic armor that exploded towards the surroundings.

"You still have one minute. This is a reminder from a friend." The smile disappeared from his face, and Adel spread his hands. At the same time, he looked at the man covered with white flowers. "Mr. Toren, please don't forget the content of the mission. I need help."

Torun, who was covered with white flowers, said "hmm", turned his head and pointed his unclear face at Defoni, "Mr. Defoni, the reputation of the King of Steel has been spread in the Three Phase Continent for too long. It's an honor to meet you on such an occasion." After saying these words, Torun quickly shrank, and in the blink of an eye, his height was only half.

In Defoni's perception, Torun did not shrink at all, but melted directly, leaving only a pile of white flowers' rootsless material scattered on the ground, forming a pile of soil belonging to the white flowers. What's been standing there is not Toren itself at all, but a polymer that relies on high concentrations of pollution.

He's around and demands intense attention. Defoni allocated part of his energy to continue to be vigilant, and most of the rest of his energy was already focused on Alder in front.

"It's a pity, Alder." Defoni sighed, and the skyrocketing blue flames retracted on the kinetic armor. He took a step forward and disappeared instantly.

"Boom!" A few dozen meters away from Alder, the figure of the kinetic armor solidified, and the sledgehammer with shining strange words hit the ground. The fan-shaped blue flames were fired by the hammer head. On the way to Alder, they were blocked by an invisible solid barrier. The flames were forced upwards, forming a wall of fire that rolled up and melted the mountain rocks.

Amidst the sound of the sound, Defoni then waved the first-generation holy sword and struck with the sword. White light shot out, a hole appeared in the condensed fire wall, and a translucent sword hole also appeared in the air, like melting glass. Twisted air appears, and the invisible barrier seems to be crumbling.

The light hit Alder's head directly, but then he closed his hands, a barrier appeared, and the white light was distorted, turned at an almost right angle, and cast into the rocks on the side.

At the same time, Alder seemed to be floating out of thin air, the light was distorted around him, and invisible things within his sight were being superimposed and spliced ​​all over his body, like a set of invisible armor. In his mental perception, it was an energy creation that looked like a kinetic armor, using pollution as an adhesive to cover his whole body, like white-gray paint.

"Energy armor is the highest research product of the Far Sea Commonwealth." He opened his mouth and clenched his hands together. The light of energy shone from his body. Strip-like invisible barriers became obstacles and lines, instantly forming around Defoni, interacting with each other. Weaving crosswise, it became a three-dimensional spider web, imprisoning him.

Six planar barriers were immediately generated, and now they were combined into a cube to form another prison cage, locking Defoni inside.

"Ignoring space and most distances, this is the advantage of energy-based armor." Alder continued, "The Council has never wanted to help you carry out the Mechanical Dragon Project. This is one of the reasons."

"I know everything, Alder." Defoni smiled, "I know far more than you do. Research on energized kinetic armor seems to be still in progress. I know a little bit of information, just like this."

As he spoke, the blue flames on the kinetic armor condensed into scales, translucent, and spread out like tiles.

"But you probably don't know that this research was originally designed for the Mechanical Dragon, and it was me who proposed it. As for why..." The dense fine scales on the sledgehammer are also condensing, "That's because I think the scales of Ultra Alloy are not good-looking and are not worthy of the Mechanical Dragon, that’s all. In my vision, the Mechanical Dragon is not targeting five-stage dragons, but taking giant whales as the prerequisite. The original theoretical design.”

"Alder, the title of King of Steel was not only given to me because I could swing a sledgehammer and had a very good record. Before the last Red Star came, I also had a 'mechanic' in my identity. The title is here."
