"Core?"

Hekzod walked over to the instrument and leaned down, fiddling with the dismantled piece of metal. It soon discovered that the thing was thick and thin, from the pitted outer shell to the hidden structure inside. Pick up a random cartridge and it contains dozens or even hundreds of parts, which is far more complicated than a musket. "What do you mean......"

"It is by this that the Iron Bird flies. Kamen affirmed.

"Wait, you mean the kind of guy that's faster than the Boglewinger, powered by a pile of dead things?" Hexzod frowned, as the Lord of the Iron Bird had seen it all the better—it wasn't because of the vibration of its wings, but because of the buzzing blades of its head.

In a sense, it is somewhat similar to a windmill, but the latter is propelled by the wind, and it actively generates the wind. It's just that why the blades can maintain high-speed rotation for a long time has always been a difficult question for the Lord of the Sky to understand. It can't do this on its own, so it subconsciously attributes it to a magic sigil or some other system of spontaneously released magic stones, which is the only way to explain that the Iron Bird can fly into the sky under the control of a male even without the need for a witch.

But now, Kamen tells it that the Iron Bird is driven by nothing more than a pile of dead metal creations?

"Incredible, right? As soon as he spoke of the subject of his interest, Nasopelle suddenly came to his senses, stretched out a slender finger, dug it in the iron bucket, and then handed it to the Lord of the Celestial Dome, "Do you want to taste it?"

Hekzod looked at the pitch-black stain on his fingertips and said coldly, "You want to try the taste of a severed hand?"

"Ahem...... There are some things that can be more impressive if you have experienced them yourself. The other man curtly withdrew his finger and put it in his mouth, "Part of it is burnt, but it has a slight fragrance, and this thing is used to contain the flames." ”

"Fire can't drive an iron bird. ”

"It depends on what kind of fire it is—if it burns violently enough, it can't do that!" Kamen retorted, "You've seen the fire branches used by insects, I've taken them apart and examined them carefully, and their essence is to burn, but because of their speed, they seem to explode! ”

"The explosion of the fire branch is an instantaneous thing, and if it is true as you say, it would have to be constantly adding incendiary materials to the barrel, and it would have to be faster than thousands of times per breath to reach the speed of the paddle rotation. This is theoretically impossible. "The Lord of the Heavenly Dome poured cold water.

"That's something I haven't figured out yet. Nasopelle admitted, "That's why I called these bugs, I wanted to hear what they think, who knew that they were as stupid as the inferior people out there - I thought the bugs were deliberately concealing and using some means, but they really didn't know anything!"

Speaking of this, the Kamen Maharaja danced with excitement, "Can you believe it? The maker of this thing in front of me actually belongs to the same race as these insects! The truth contained in the machine is now spread out in front of them, but they have no idea about it, and they also say that this is just a trick of the fallen witch, and I will inevitably use more force when I am excited——"

"Great, great, ......" The nobleman was glared at by Nasopelle, his face turned pale, and he leaned against the corner and trembled.

"Now I can understand why you don't think of humans as bugs. But I have to say, the guys you brought with you are still bugs, and the lowest kind!" Kamen turned to look at Hakzord, "By the way, I heard that the Iron Bird and the Fire Branch were made by the Greykeep? Can you catch a few Greykeep artisans for me? I'd like to see if their brains have changed compared to the bugs." If so, it might not be nice to fuse another human head......"

"That's enough!" Hekzod interrupted, "I'm not here to hear you say this!, once you get their legacy shards, all your questions will be answered, and the key is to win the war." The gods of creation are still a week away from entering human territory, and I don't want you to make any more mess for me - creating more symbiotes is your whole job, understand? ”

The masquerade fell silent, and after a moment it spread its hands, "...... Of course. ”

The Lord of the Sky took a deep look at it, then grabbed the surviving nobles and turned to leave the transformation room.

After the stone door was closed for a long time, Nasopelle shook his head slightly.

"That's all there is to you, Hekzord. ”

"The mystery is the key to the essence of truth, and you are not interested in it in the slightest. It pulled out a new mask from its robe and slowly placed it over the witch's head, "Magic is not the whole story of the rules of the world, and the battle of divine will is not. Even if you get everything from the defeated through the inheritance of shards, not everyone will reach the apex in the end. That's why I can create symbiotes while you can only run around the battlefield. ”

"You don't even realize the meaning of these metal creations......"

The Kamen Maharaja turned to stare at the remains of the Iron Bird and muttered.

Humans used explosions to propel behemoths, giving it an unprecedented enlightenment, and that was the transformation of power - it is common to evolve from stability to instability, but it is the first time it has seen a stable rotation with unstable and violent combustion. From the explosion to the flight, there must have been some kind of intrinsic connection that led to a shift in the form of power.

Since the two are reversible, does it mean that they are essentially the same?

What about the magic?

Before, the race had never thought carefully about the way magic was manifested, and what was often revealed was what it was...... But now that I think about it, can magic be able to do a similar transformation?

If the magic power of the god created by the gods was raised and directly turned into the power of explosion, how amazing would the power be?

It was as if it saw a new path being laid out in front of it.

If you can master this mystery, let alone the Lord of the Heavenly Vault, you will be considered a king...... That's it.

Knowledge is the most powerful force in the world.

I want to know...... I want to know the mysteries of mankind!

Nasopelle raised her head and chuckled uncontrollably.

......

Hearing the faint sound of laughter behind him, Hekzod turned his head in disgust.

"Your Excellency...... I'm glad you're here!" said the nobleman who was being held on his shoulder, crying, "Everyone else was cut in the top of their heads by that monster, and I almost came to be next-"

"I know, don't worry, it's all over. ”

After it unloaded the nobleman, it did not let the other man leave, but grabbed him by the collar and held it high over the drawbridge fence.

"Wait, Lord of the Heavens and the Celestial Firmament, what are you going to do?" Looking at the terrifying worm trough under his feet, the nobleman suddenly panicked, "No...... Nope!"

Hekzod didn't reply again, and as soon as he threw his hand, the surviving nobleman fell to the bottom of the cave more than ten meters with a scream. In the face of the sudden "food", the inferior body rushed up and responded to this gift with an excited and swaying body.

What it needs is a stable and controllable workforce.

The nobles who had seen the proving ground and the mask were obviously not among them.

Even it thinks Nasopelle is no different from a monster, let alone these humans.

Instead of letting him go back and cry about what happened to him, let him shut up here forever.

While this will cause some trouble, it's better than not being able to end it later.

Back in the human settlement, Marveen Peck was the first to greet him, "Your Excellency...... I don't know what the captives ......."

"I've confirmed that they were arrested because of secret communication with Grey Keep, and because there was someone else in charge of intelligence, so the news came to me one step later. "But fortunately, I arrived in time, and according to your tradition, those men were not executed, but were escorted to Sky Dome. When the war is over, they can buy their freedom for ransom or something else. There is also good news, that is, the remaining nobles have passed the examination, and such a thing will not happen again. ”

"Yes...... "Ma Weien breathed a long sigh of relief, "I see, thank you for taking care of it." ”

"It doesn't matter, as long as you do your best to complete the tasks I have assigned, there will definitely be a place for you in the human world in the future. ”

"Of course, of course. "By the way, my lord, just as you were on your way to the inner city, someone handed me such a letter—supposedly addressed specifically to you." Although misinformation is more likely, since it has all been brought into the miracle, I think it would be better to give you a glance. ”

"Oh?" Hekzord unfolded the letter, his pupils constricted!
