"I'm from the Nest of Steel. The black shadow pulled up the chains hanging from his body in twos and threes, and the giant eyeballs were dragged up, making the same "click" sound when pulling into this spatial cave. In Catherine's incredulous gaze, the huge bull's-eyed demonic instinct shrunk into a steel ball the size of a head.

"When" Shadow threw the steel ball in front of Catherine. "This is your mount, and I've modified it. ”

"Transformation?" Catherine picked up the chain attached to the steel ball, intending to lift it, but it was too heavy to lift like a black shadow. The entire giant eyeball is now much smaller and still in the shape of an eyeball, but the pupils have become cast iron and the whites of the eyes have become steel.

Catherine tucked the chains into her chest, trying to control the bullseye demon's instinct again, but the bullseye instinct fell into some strange slumber and did not listen to her call. Fortunately, the soul shackles are still in effect, so that Catherine will no longer be affected by the weight. Carrying the steel ball of the bull's eye demon instinct, the female mage had a strange illusion that she was a fierce warrior who swung a chain ball and smashed at the enemy on the battlefield, not a magician who killed the enemy from a distance by magic.

"What is the Nest of Steel?" asked the Ice Bear Abyss, who slowly moved to Catherine's side, "We didn't come here of our own free will, we need help." ”

The Kamiyama shaman was very experienced, and he could tell from the black shadow's actions and words that the other party was not hostile. When dealing with strangers, proper honesty can sometimes be very useful. In this strange anchor world, since you meet someone who can communicate with you, it is definitely a very lucky thing, and you must make good use of it.

"I've seen outsiders like you several times. The shadow turned sideways to let the two of them see the scene outside the cave, "From here, the place on the other side is called Gear City. You have three days to sneak into Gear City and find the old wrench in Screw Alley to transform your body. ”

The shadow walked out. "Wait. Catherine stopped him, "What if you don't find an old wrench in three days?"

"You can't transform your body, and the only fate that awaits you is destruction. "The shadow has walked to the edge of the cave.

"Can you tell us who you are?" asked the Ice Bear Abyss.

"There's no need, if you don't get the transformation within three days, it doesn't matter to you who I am. The black shadow made a "click" sound all over his body, and his size grew larger in the sound. Seeing that he was about to resist the cave, the black shadow jumped out of the cave.

As soon as the black shadow left, the iron-toothed disc in the entire cave spun at an accelerated pace, and the space began to shrink at a speed that was visible to the naked eye. "Let's go, there's danger here. The Ice Bear Abyss tugged at Catherine.

The two quickly came to the entrance of the cave. "To get to Gear City, you have to climb down this cliff first. Catherine looked at the bottomless cliff and took a deep breath to cling to the iron teeth on the cliff. The Ice Bear Abyss crawled out of Catherine's side as well.

At this moment, the space cave where the two were resting closed with a "dang", and if they didn't climb out in time, it was estimated that they would be crushed into meatloaf.

Climbing on the cliff face is quite dangerous, but fortunately, the machine wall made of iron-toothed discs does not lack protrusions and depressions to grasp. Not long after climbing down, a "buzzing" sound sounded. Catherine looked back and saw several robot bees flying out of nowhere. They were the size of a fist, and the iron needle on their tails was as long as a little finger to look at.

"Let's not provoke them yet. The voice of the Ice Bear Abyss came from Catherine's ears. The voice came from a chess piece of life, and I didn't expect it to be able to transmit words in my ears. Catherine nodded towards the Ice Bear Abyss, five meters away.

The two of them stuck to the cliff and let the robot bees fly around them twice. Probably found that it was not a metal flower that could be used to collect honey, and the bees flew away.

There were quite a few metal flowers on the walls of the machine, which Catherine had seen several times. She even tried to pick one, but the texture of the metal flower was completely metal, and the branches could not be twisted with flesh and blood.

"Sure enough, it's a habit like an ordinary bee. The voice of the Ice Bear Abyss came again. The Kinabalu shaman used his hands and feet together and slowly climbed to Catherine's side.

"I saw a robot lizard just now, and everything in this world seems to be made of machines and metal. The Ice Bear Abyss sighed.

"They all look like robot puppets. Catherine said.

"It turned out to be a product of alchemy. The Ice Bear Abyss is also rich in knowledge, and he actually immediately said alchemy, "Could it be that the master of this anchor world is a certain alchemy master?"

"I don't know. The robot golem is a small branch of alchemy that has almost been lost. I can't even remember a great alchemist who specialized in the refining of machine golems. Catherine shook her head, "Let's hurry down, I've always felt that old wrenches are not so easy to find, and we can't afford to waste too much time here." ”

The two of them speed up, and along the way, they encounter different robot animals and insects one after another. The most dangerous one was when he was alerted to a robotic python hiding in a cave in a cliff. The guy was thicker than a bucket, and he poked out half of his body and struck Catherine and the Ice Bear Abyss. At the last moment, a giant eagle flew from the sky and grabbed the python with one claw. Both of them were dumbfounded, both feeling lucky and incredible. Both the Robot Python and the Robot Eagle are enemies that are difficult for them to defeat at the moment, and they don't know how this kind of machine puppet was created.

The cave where the robot python was entrenched gave the two of them a nice place to rest. The cavern is also home to the remains of many other robotic animals, and Catherine is able to get a glimpse of the inner workings of these robot golems - a variety of large and small parts, especially the iron-toothed discs.

"These inscriptions are the key to driving the metal. Catherine took the wings of a robot bird and pointed to the Ice Bear Abyss. This wing has several pieces of metal feathers, on which quite beautiful inscriptions are drawn.

"Kind of like our tattoos. The Ice Bear Abyss picked up a feather from the ground and played with it.

The tattoos of the barbarians have a vital connection to their witchcraft, and Catherine knows only a few scratches about it. The witchcraft system is complex and abnormal, and it is an unpopular research direction in major academies, and female mages do not know much about it.

The two rested for a while, and the cave began to shrink as well. When they crawled out of the hole, the cave quickly disappeared, just like the space cave that the black shadow had found for them.

After several hours of trekking, Catherine and the Ice Bear Abyss finally made it to the bottom of the machine's walls.
