At this moment, the giant robot was covered in bruises, the hard armor that originally covered the body cracked into cobweb-like gaps under the shock of resonance, and the original hideous and punk-style body added a decadent atmosphere of apocalypse, and the pitch-black lube slurry continued to flow out of the wound, dripping to the ground, and then ignited by the giant flamethrower on the right arm.

As if to spy on its weakness hidden in its core, two bullets whizzed, colliding with each other in the air, changing their trajectory until the last one bypassed the iron wall and exploded in his core.

The light of fire and frost exploded, and a terrible whistle suddenly sounded from the robot's shoulder, and the fiery steam exploded!

It's about to run out.

At this moment, the whistling sound waves converged into a tidal wave, expanding in the resonance of the 'tuning fork' that had reached its limit, instantly engulfing the huge body of the entire robot.

As if being beaten angrily by countless hammers, in the range of resonance, the robot continued to tremble wildly, black oil and electric sparks appeared all over its body, and a violent light was released from the scarlet eyes that had been extinguished on the shoulder.

Intruder ...... Defeat can't ...... Finally, the defense program is activated...... [Exhaustion] module is activated.

In the next moment, the self-explosion began, and a dazzling scarlet emerged from its chest, expanding and exploding...... Sweep in all directions!

The terrifying flame light mixed with the fiery stream of metal vapor was like a tidal wave of destruction rising into the sky, tearing apart the resonant sound waves and spreading away!

The blazing light spread in an instant, engulfing everyone's eyes.

In the self-detonation of such a terrifying creature that was about to reach the fourth stage, everyone could only lie down and wait for the tyrannical storm to stop.

When the raging turbulence of destruction finally disappeared, Zhu Teng got up from the ground with a disgraced face, feeling that the clothes on the back half of his body had been scorched, and even a terrible wound was cut by a broken shrapnel on his back, and the viscous blood slowly seeped out.

Taking a breath with some difficulty, Zhu Teng raised his head and looked at Lu Yuanwei's figure.

The earth had been completely scorched, and the terrible turbulence had left a terrible trail on the ground, turning everything around it into ruins.

And standing on the only intact piece of land, resisting the impact of self-explosion head-on, Lu Yuanwei was unscathed except for being a little embarrassed?

In his eyes, it was as if the spiritual power of the essence was burning, almost releasing light.

Gesturing to Zhu Teng, he motioned for Zhu Teng to collect the loot first, while he looked around vigilantly, alert to some guy who wanted to play the game of praying mantis and catching cicadas.

Zhu Teng wiped the black ash on his face and walked towards the remains of the original giant.

The giant, which was originally more than ten meters tall just by standing, was now shattered, leaving only a broken chest that had been burned into pitch black in the fire of the self-explosion, lying on the ground with its back to the sky, constantly scattering black ashes into the breeze.

Zhu Teng was alert to the possibility of the giant's fake death at any time, slowly approaching the wreckage of the machine, and after confirming the complete death of the giant, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, pinned the pistol in his right hand to his waist, stepped forward, and began to search carefully.

Eventually, he struggled to climb onto the top of the wreckage, tearing off a piece of broken armor with all his might, and finally saw the faint appearance of the 'core' among the complex mechanical parts.

"Found it!"

He whispered to the rear, put away the gun in his left hand, struggled to pull the last steel pipe in front of him, jumped into the wreckage's chest and left.

Forcefully removing the iron plate that had been fixed to the core, he smiled as he looked at the core that was shining like a diamond.

With dozens of delicate interfaces, the fist-sized core is illuminated by light, flowing with colorful light, illuminating a cog solidified in it.

And in the reflection of the core, Zhu Teng vaguely saw a pair of cyan eyes flash from behind his back.

At that moment, the ability called 'Instant Sense' made him see the shadow of death that covered him.

In an instant, the revolver 'lady' on his waist was pulled out, and Zhu Teng raised his head in extreme fear, but he didn't see anything.

For a moment, he began to suspect that there was a mistake in his ability, until the next second, the palm he raised was cut off by an invisible blade, and blood gushed out.

Before the screams of fear could be uttered, they had been erased by a slash in the throat.

Like a nimble bird, the wandering blade slashed off his other arm brutally and directly, slicing his carotid artery and stabbing him in the heart.

Blood spurted out of Zhu Teng's throat, encountered obstacles, and fell down the person's cheek.

So he saw his killer in his last moments...... A blood-stained indifferent face that floated in mid-air.

A pair of cyan pupils were reflected in his dull eyes, as if he had seen the call of death, and a strange sound came out of his throat.

In the next moment, layers of silver circuits sank into his heart along the invisible blade, like a hungry beast plundering his life, lifelines, and even his soul.

The life pattern is attributed to the withered tree of the world, but the soul is attributed to the 'Sword of Sorrow', which has not smelled the fragrance of despair for a long time.

In this way, the last life force was silently drained, and the old corpse fell to the ground, blood overflowing the bright core.

Zhou Li untied the disguise of the 'illusion', and after carefully wiping the blood off his face, he looked down at the faint blood-colored thread in the crystal transparent hilt in his hand.

Like a soul that had been extracted, the blood flowed through the hilt, revealing a strange scarlet.

Zhou Li raised the hilt of the knife, looked at the blood in it, ignored the enemy not far away, and fell into deep thought.

The power extracted through form liberation is stored in the hilt of the sword, and a certain amount of it can be reached to truly activate the weapon's 'Apocalypse Form'.

For a long time, the reason why the 'Apocalypse Force' has surpassed all the 'Alchemy Forces' is that in addition to the liberation force, the Apocalypse Army also has the ability to form a qualitative change in its own power and exert it 150%.

Such a form will be called the Apocalypse form.

It's just that when it comes to using the Apocalypse Armament, the power required is so staggering that even a fourth-stage capable person may not be able to afford it - it is said that the German Apocalypse Armament was created with the nation's strength during World War II - the 'Dora Cannon' even needs more than five 'Fourth Stage'. Only the kingdom-level 'abilities can be activated, and after one shot, it is enough to squeeze the power of those five kingdom-level abilities out.

Of course, compared to the terrifying weapon that exists as a map cannon, the consumption of the 'Wailing Blade' is simply negligible, but even if it is, it is not something that Zhou Li can afford at this stage, and even if he is seriously injured, Oni Che is not capable of using it in the first place.

However, one of the benefits of the Wailing Blade is that it can absorb the power of the soul and store it in the hilt of the sword, so that it can activate the Apocalypse Form in place of the user's power. It's just that it has only killed a real person in Zhou Li's hands, and compared with the standard of meeting the demand, I'm afraid it has only reached a third of the level.

That being said, but ......

"Isn't there a ready-made energy source right in front of you?"

Zhou Li bent down, pulled out the bright core from the bracket, and smiled.

……

When Zhu Teng crawled out of the wreckage, Lu Yuanwei, who had been waiting for a long time, showed a look of anticipation. Zhu Teng smiled, waved the core of his hand, and the brilliant light was released from his fingers.

Lu Yuanwei's always gloomy face finally showed a look of surprise, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand and said, "Hurry up and give it to me, there is still a little bit of impact, and my ability can break through to the fourth stage." ”

"Okay."

'Zhu Teng' nodded, smiled and stretched out his palm, and then ...... Pull the trigger.

In his hand, the diamond suddenly disappeared, but was replaced by two alchemy weapons, but a trace of cold blue flashed in his eyes.

With the pull of the trigger, a storm of bullets flew out of the chamber with flames.

Twelve bullets were completely emptied in an instant, and the flaming bullets flew in the air covered in the glow of frost or flame.

A trace of silver veins appeared on the delicate body of the 'gentleman' and 'lady', liberating the form, unfolding!

It is not a pity to consume nearly half of his mental power at one time, and Zhou Li imposes an additional state on all bullets.

Originally, after the alchemy weapon was verified by the soul, it was completely unusable if it fell into the hands of others, and even some weapons with preset functions would explode themselves. However, this is not a problem at all under the erosion and assimilation of the World Tree - the World Tree is like a brute-force cracking modifier that forcibly changes the identity of the owner it remembers to Zhou Li, and forcibly improves its ability to do so.

With the two guns in his hands, Zhou Li felt that his combat power had finally returned by a small half, and at the same time, his confidence was greatly increased, and he suddenly attacked the killer!

The intertwined burning trajectories flew out in mid-air, and Lu Yuanwei's reaction was also incredibly fast, and at the moment when the two guns appeared in Zhou Li's hands, the tuning fork was instantly liberated, and layers of resonance deflection shields were arranged.

The twelve alchemy bullets that had been strengthened to at least level 3 were attached to them with the light of fire and frost, constantly breaking through the layers of shields and exploding violently.

Lu Yuanwei's figure was completely covered by the erupting flames and scattered wind and snow, and when the roar stopped, he couldn't see the original appearance under the impact of the bullets.
