Chapter 19: The Blue Crystal

Shangguan Ziyang didn't expect that the gap between the values, worldview, and outlook on life of the orcs and humans was so huge that many times it was impossible to communicate with profound topics, but if they didn't involve profound topics, these orcs were actually very suitable as partners.

Patrick the Minotaur used his horns to slam the "Fighter" against the "magic barrier", causing the "magic barrier" to produce bursts of "ripples". Shangguan Ziyang could even see that the gears in this "fighter's" body seemed to be spinning sparks due to overload.

"Moo――――――" Patrick roared again, manipulating his horns and slamming them, throwing the metal man "Fighter" high into the air.

Shangguan Ziyang really couldn't imagine the weight of such a "metal man", and Patrick easily threw it into the air, how much power must this be! And he actually threw Patrick up more than 20 times under the bonus of the black unknown state that day, so how much strength should "himself" have at that time?

But these have nothing to do with the current self, the battle situation in the arena has basically been determined, Patrick saw that the "fighter" had been thrown on the ground, and he didn't get up for a while, so he took the opportunity to jump high, and actually pressed the metal body of the "fighter", almost the same "earthquake" as when the "fighter" landed before, and it happened like this, fortunately, Shangguan Ziyang was prepared, so he didn't look foreign.

Shangguan Ziyang found that the internal gears of the "fighter" came from this sound when they were operating in mutual transmission, and the sparks that came out were several times more than the previous "overload running" ones! It seems that Patrick's move "Tarzan pressing" caused some malfunction inside this "fighter".

"Moo--" Patrick's arms, almost thicker than a water tank, picked up the "fighter" and picked it up with himself as the center. Shangguan Ziyang watched Patrick, the Minotaur, use the "fighter" as a sandbag, and then as soon as he let go of his hand, the "fighter" flew straight out and smashed the "magic barrier".

"Bang!" There was a loud sound like a metal impact, and there seemed to be more sparks coming out of the "fighter's" body.

"Moo-" Patrick leaped to his feet, his fists together and raised high, "Die!!" and his fists slammed down under Shangguan Ziyang's gaze, striking the armor of the "Fighter's" chest. "Boom!" centered on Patrick's fists, a seismic wave quickly spread throughout the hall.

Another "earthquake" shook Shangguan Ziyang into mid-air, but fortunately, this time he had been prepared, even if he was shaken away, he still adjusted his posture in the air and landed safely.

But the "fighter" was not so lucky, the armor on his chest was almost completely smashed and collapsed, and a large number of sparks kept coming out of his body, and it seemed that he was so badly damaged that he could not fight again.

With a "brush", the surrounding "magic barrier" disappeared like this, Shangguan Ziyang touched the space in front of him with his hand, that's right, the magic barrier did disappear.

"You've succeeded! Patrick!" Shangguan Ziyang said a little excitedly, "I didn't expect you to be so strong!"

"I thought this was so powerful. Patrick looked at the "fighter" who had lost his ability to move on the ground and was still sparkling out, and said, "I was going to fight seriously, but I didn't expect this guy to have this strength!"

Shangguan Ziyang was speechless, please, with your physique and almost as strong as this "fighter", I feel that this "fighter" has no advantage at all!

"Kang! Qiang!" I didn't expect Patrick's kick to kick this "fighter" apart! So Shangguan Ziyang stepped forward to take a closer look at the "high-tech" products that appeared in this world -- "combat robots."

Judging from this material, this "fighter" must have been around for a long time, because the metallic luster of this unknown metal material is a little dull, and it seems that it is too old, resulting in an "oxidation reaction" on the surface. And the core part of this "fighter" is a large number of extremely miscellaneous formation diagrams that Shangguan Ziyang can't understand at all, and it still faintly exudes a faint light. The core of the formation diagram was inlaid with a blue crystal about the size of a fist, still shining with a faint blue light. Shangguan Ziyang estimated that this blue crystal should be to provide energy for this "fighter", and this thing engraved with a large number of complex formations should be the commonly used "circuit board" on the earth?

Shangguan Ziyang broke the blue crystal from the "circuit board" of the "fighter", and in an instant, the faint light on the "circuit board" disappeared, and the gears that were still spinning were no longer turning, and the "eyes" of the "fighter" who were shining with light also dimmed.

Although he didn't understand how the "artificial intelligence" in this world was "written" at all, and what the "principle" of the complicated formation was, Shangguan Ziyang didn't understand it at all, but this blue crystal, which is the core of the "fighter", should be very useful............ Wait, this blue crystal can provide energy to the "circuit diagram", and the synthesis scroll of the power of the three phases has a holy weapon called "Flare" that represents wisdom, and it seems to be a synthesis of a blue crystal and a "little yellow book (magic book)"?!

At this moment, Shangguan Ziyang seemed to feel that there seemed to be a god horse guiding him in this world? Why did he go to that underground sky city? Why did he get a self-proclaimed "god" from the same place? Why did he have the "inheritance" of this "god"? Why did he just touch the door of this "god of war" before, and the door fell? And now, he actually inadvertently owned a blue crystal?

"Hey, Lord Shangguan, why aren't you moving forward?" Ike shouted to Shangguan Ziyang from the open door on the other side of the hall.

"It's here!" Shangguan Ziyang put the sapphire crystal into the ring and ran towards the open door on the other side.

The three of them walked through the newly opened door and into a long, narrow room. It may not be appropriate to say that it is long and narrow, because this "room" is a "passage" that is nearly a kilometer long and about 50 meters wide and high. At the end of this passage, there is another huge stone gate. In front of Shangguan Ziyang and the others, there is another stone platform, but there is a "rotating rod" on this stone platform that requires two or more people to operate. After the three of them entered this passage, not surprisingly, the stone door behind them closed with a "bang".

When the three of them walked to the stone platform, they found that there were a lot of words engraved on the stone platform's pedestal. Shangguan Ziyang looked at the words to the effect, turned around and said to the two orcs with a bitter face: "It seems that this time you need to cooperate to pass the ......"

"What's written on it?" asked Patrick the Minotaur.

"The 'turning rod' on this stone platform is the mechanism to open the gate on the opposite side, but each time you open the gate, you can only keep it for 3 minutes, and you must pass through the passage within 3 minutes, enter the back of the gate, and pull down the switch behind it to completely open the gate.

"No problem, leave it to me! I'm the fastest here, let me take care of this!" Ekmo snapped his fists, eager to try.

"It's not that simple. Shangguan Ziyang's tone was a little strange, "When the gate is opened, all kinds of deadly mechanisms will appear on this passage, which can easily cause death!"

The three ......of them were silent for a while.

"Can we just walk over to one person, and the other two people open the mechanism here, and the other person enters the door and closes the mechanism?" Patrick suggested.

"No, it won't. Shangguan Ziyang said, pointing to the stone platform and said, "As long as someone crosses this stone platform, the mechanism will be forcibly opened!"

“............”

"Leave it to me. Ike finally spoke, "I'm the only one of the three of us who can do this, and even if you don't have a mechanism, it's hard to get in before the gate closes in 3 minutes, right?" So Ike took a step forward, looking at the narrow passage, ready to go out at any time, "What's more, this is just a 'beast god illusion'!

"That'...... Patrick, come on, let's open this mechanism. Shangguan Ziyang jumped on the stone platform and said to Patrick the Minotaur, and then turned to Ike and said, "Then be careful!"

"It's coming!" Patrick stepped onto the stone platform and carried his arm on the top of the pole with Shangguan Ziyang.

"One, two, three! Turn!!" Shangguan Ziyang counted to three, and the "Black Dragon Tattoo" on his arms immediately emitted a dazzling light! In an instant, a huge force spread to Shangguan Ziyang's arm. With Patrick gritting his teeth, the two struggled to move the lever a bit, and then spun in a counterclockwise direction. Maybe it's because it's too old, but after the strong push at the beginning, it turned a lot easier.

After about 3 turns in the counterclockwise direction of the rotary lever, I suddenly heard a "click" sound from the pedestal under my feet, and the door at the end of the aisle slowly opened in the sound of "boom". At the same time, a large number of mechanisms appeared on both sides of the wall, and even the walls of some areas began to move in one piece, and from the gaps, it was barely possible to see that there seemed to be various deadly weapons inside the walls.

"Howl ――――――" Ike raised his head to the sky and howled, and the wolf howled, and his whole body seemed to glow with a red shimmer.

"Hold the grass, you don't have to go crazy directly, right?!" Patrick saw Ike's state, and before he could finish a sentence, the werewolf Ike directly turned into a gray arrow and flew out. The first 100 meters are a dense "wall of needles" made up of "needles" at least a foot long, on the ground and on the walls from time to time.

"What is 'madness'?" Shangguan Ziyang asked, "It seems that you can hear the word 'madness' from your mouth from time to time?"

Ike bounced around the walls on both sides - the ground was full of "needles", most of the walls were "needles", only the very small area that could only be stepped on once, and Ike used these tiny areas to bounce on the walls on both sides while maintaining extremely high speed.

"Madness is a natural skill given to us by the beast god, an ability hidden in the bloodline, and it can only be released by an orc over 20 years old, and it will enter a weak state after each release. Patrick scratched his head and thought for a moment and said, "It's like taking all of tomorrow's strength and using it up during this time, temporarily greatly improving your strength, but as soon as the effect passes, you will immediately enter a weak state." ”

Ike easily broke through the "nail wall", and at this time, his speed almost soared to the limit, and Shangguan Ziyang could almost only see a gray shadow moving between the various mechanisms. Quickly entered the mechanism of the "Fan Axe", where several "fans" were made up of a large pile of axes, rotating between passages, while the mechanism on the base carried them in irregular motion.

"Then how long does this kind of celestial power last?" Shangguan Ziyang asked.

Ike easily dodged between the huge "axe fans" that were moving completely irregularly, and the speed of those "axe fans" was ridiculous compared to Ike's speed.

"There's no time limit......," Patrick shook his head, "No, it's that the longer it lasts, the longer the days of weakness will be, anyway, I still don't know where the limit time of 'madness' is, but if it lasts too long, it will be weak for life, and it will be eliminated." ”

Ike crossed the "axe fan array" again, and the mechanism in front of him was a crossbow arrow that was fired up and down, left and right, and the crossbow arrows were fired very intensively, and Ike used his extreme speed to shoot the crossbow arrows that were fired at him in this crossbow arrow cluster comparable to a torrential rain, and these crossbow arrows almost posed no threat to Ike.

"What does 'eliminated' mean?" Shangguan Ziyang asked as if he had heard something bad.

It's only been a minute, but Ike has broken through more than half of the distance. This speed is something that Shangguan Ziyang can't imagine, there are still so many deadly mechanisms on the way! And in front of Ike, this time it was a sawtooth frisbee with a diameter of about 30 centimeters that was ejected from the machine, but these frisbees were very sharp, and they would eject indiscriminately when they hit obstacles, and the frisbee that had lost its strength would even explode!

"Survival of the fittest, survival of the fittest. This is the dogma given to us by the Beamon royal family. Patrick's tone was a little heavy, "The jungle doesn't need the weak, the orcs don't need the weak, the Warcraft Mountain Range doesn't need the weak, the world doesn't need the weak! So if the Orcs, regardless of gender, old and young, are all powerful warriors! The weak orcs will only be eliminated by the Orcs! This is the dogma that the Orcs have obtained by surviving in the Warcraft Mountains for so long! Only by becoming a strong warrior can they be qualified to survive! The weak! They can only be eliminated!!"

With Ike's speed, these jagged frisbees were not much of a threat to Ike, and Ike easily rushed out of the frisbee formation, because the speed of the frisbee was too slow compared to Ike's speed.

"Orcs...... What the hell has happened in the Demon Beast Mountain Range?!" Shangguan Ziyang really couldn't imagine that a race with intelligence would eliminate the "weak" in his own race, and listening to Patrick's meaning, "It's 'humane destruction'...... What?"

There is only about a hundred meters of distance left in front of him, but there is still a minute and a half of time, seeing that success is in front of him, Ike took a step forward, but something unexpected happened - Ike actually stepped on the air! The aisle in front of Ike about 3 meters long actually sank nearly 5 meters deep in an instant, causing the original Ike to step out of the foot directly into the air! This is not over, because the ground suddenly settled, and Ike stepped on the air again, so Ike, who had not borrowed force before, could not exert force in the air, and it happened that two sawtooth frisbees flew from two different directions, just towards Ike in the air.

"No, it's a random part of the Demon Beast Mountain Range and left to fend for itself. Patrick said in a heavy tone, I don't know if there was ever a story?!

Patrick never expected such a change, he couldn't borrow his strength in the air, he "whoa---" let out a wolf howl, and twisted his body in the air stiffly, causing a disc to fly past his waist, bringing up a bloody arrow, but he could dodge the first, but he couldn't dodge the second.

The second serrated frisbee hit Ike's right thigh accurately, and the cut was deep into the bone. The worst thing is that at this time, the turntable suddenly exploded! Although the power of the explosion was not very strong, it almost destroyed Ike's right leg.

"Ike, what's wrong?" Shangguan Ziyang saw that after Ike fell into the pit before, two turntables were bounced in, and then there was an explosion, and after about 30 seconds of the explosion, Ike still didn't come up, Shangguan Ziyang was a little anxious, "What happened to Ike?!"

"I don't know. Patrick also looked confused, "Could it be...... Dead, right?!"

As soon as Patrick finished speaking, he saw a pair of claws lying on the edge of the settled "pit". As soon as the claws were forced, Ike flipped out of the pit.

"His leg ......" Shangguan Ziyang looked at Ike's bloody right leg incredulously, it was hard to imagine that he could continue to move forward in this situation, although he walked with a limp, he still stubbornly advanced towards the stone gate. However, after taking a few steps, the ground in front of him collapsed again, and the unsuspecting Ike fell headlong again. Despite the distance of several hundred meters, Shangguan Ziyang could still feel Ike fall hard.

But this time, within seconds, Ike was crawling up from the pit again.

"Whew――――――!!" A wolf howl, Ike's body at this time was red, and Shangguan Ziyang felt that Ike had entered the most violent state at this time. But by the time Ike had finished howling, the door in front of him seemed to slowly close.

When Ike reached the peak of this "most furious state", it seemed that his bloody right leg was no longer an obstacle to him, and his running speed soared to the limit again.

"Hurry up!!!" Shangguan Ziyang shouted in his heart.

The ground still changes irregularly from time to time, and occasionally the ground rises suddenly. However, with the addition of Ike in the red mang, these will not be obstacles, but time waits for no one, and when the stone gate slowly descends to the last gap, Ike finally stepped forward and slipped a large section on the ground into the crack of the door.

"Click-" The sound of the machine resounded throughout the corridor, and in the eyes of Shangguan Ziyang and Patrick, those deadly mechanisms began to slowly retract, and at the same time, the door slowly rose and opened again.

This passage also returned to the original appearance when they first entered, and Shangguan Ziyang and Patrick immediately ran towards the gate when they saw this.
