However, after being sent flying by Ling Zhen's cannon, the Metal Man rolled on the ground and created a lot of sparks. Although its chest was badly dented, it wasn't dead.
He only lay on the ground for a few seconds, and before the humans had the chance to finish him off, he had already climbed back up.
Then, it continued to fly in the air while staring at the blue light and attacked the humans with hidden weapons!
Whoosh!
However, the ground in front of it suddenly caved in and turned into a boiling magma pool. A lot of flames were surging in it, and black smoke rose into the sky.
Whoosh …
However, the Metal Man was covered in blue light, and it passed through the magma. The high-temperature flames and the orange magma didn't even hurt it!
Were the Metal Men so resistant to fire and heat?
Obviously not!
Because the magma was just an illusion.
Ji Ye put away the Mirage Dragon Pearl in his hand. Obviously, this item that contained Transcendent power was useless to the Metal Men, because they didn't rely on their sight to sense things.
"Chu Yin!"
Then, Ji Ye waved the red wood shield in his hand and blocked another two metal pieces that were shot at him at high speed. He called out to Chu Yin, who was holding the Topaz Pipa in her arms, under his protection.
He took Chu Yin with him not only because she was Extraordinary, but also because the Forest Monster King was able to kill the Metal Men. Would the sound attack have a special effect on the Metal Men?
Clang!
The pipa suddenly rang out.
Instead of playing a song like "General's Command" or "Ambush from Ten Sides", he directly activated the Extraordinary power of the Topaz Pipa — [Soul Snatch]!
At the angle where the Topaz Pipa was facing, the Metal Man, whose chest hadn't fully recovered, suddenly trembled while he was moving at high speed. Then, the blue light on his body instantly dissipated, and he flipped over again. He fell to the metal floor and created a trail of sparks!
"It works!"
Under Chu Yin's long black eyelashes, her picturesque eyes lit up.
Ji Ye had given the Topaz Pipa to her as soon as she entered the Twin Dragon Mount settlement. Although it had played a role in the previous battles, it was mostly to boost morale with the help of music on the Land of Inheritance. It hadn't really put the Extraordinary power of this Extraordinary item into play.
She couldn't help but feel a little guilty. Now that it was useful against powerful metals, she was undoubtedly a little excited.
"It's indeed effective!"
Ji Ye nodded.
Sure enough, the Metal Men had a strong reaction to the sound waves!
However, he still needed to confirm it.
This was because the extraordinary power of the Topaz Pipa was not a pure sound wave attack, but a type of spiritual attack that was transmitted through sound waves!
This sound, which Ji Ye had named "Soul Snatching", could theoretically make an ordinary person's heart race and their head go blank, causing them to lose control of their thoughts for a moment.
However, the stronger the target's mental power, the stronger their resistance to it, and the less affected they were!
Obviously, this Metal Man had been out of control longer than an ordinary human being. Not only did he fall to the ground, but even the "blue light" on him had disappeared.
In other words, the weakness of these Metal Men was sound waves or mental attacks?
"Little Qian!"
It was very easy for Ji Ye to verify whether it was a soundwave or a mental attack.
"Yes, young master!"
Nie Xiaoqian, who was also protected by Ji Ye, nodded.
Then, she stared at a Metal Man that was moving at a high speed and covered it with invisible mental power.
Nie Xiaoqian had fused all the mental power of a Quasi-Commander Mirage Monster, and she used to be a soul. Her mental attack was as powerful as that of a real Commander-level hero!
Boom!
This time, the Metal Man didn't flip over. Instead, it deviated from its original path as if it were drunk and sent the Metal Man, who had been injured twice and had just managed to get up, flying.
The Metal Man's head was completely smashed into its chest.
"As I expected, their physical bodies are indeed very strong, but their mental resistance is very low!"
Ji Ye seemed to have understood.
These Metal Men were resistant to physical impact, fire, and even lightning …
However, they had little resistance to mental attacks!
This was not mentioned in the forum of the Land of Inheritance or in the files of the Confederation Office.
But strictly speaking, it was normal.
Because the Metal Men were very rare, and only a few of the hundreds of thousands of human settlements had run into them. Mental attacks were also very rare for human beings, and it was difficult to test them.
"However, apart from mental power, there's another way of attack. Is there another method of attack that works? "
Ji Ye moved the red wood shield in his hand and blocked another attack from the Metal Man.
Then, he looked up at the sky. It wasn't raining today, but the sun wasn't too bright.
"Well, let's try it!"
Roar!
The next moment, the Totem Wolf Skin in his arms shook, and the Soul Alpha Wolf appeared next to Ji Ye, roaring silently.
However, under the direct sunlight, even the Extraordinary Soul Alpha Wolf's black soul energy couldn't help but disperse!
Whoosh!
Seeing that, Ji Ye flicked his finger and turned a drop of his blood into a mist, which melted into the Soul Alpha Wolf's body.
Well, after mastering the Flood Dragon Bloodline, he finally didn't need to cut his finger with the Black Serpent Sword anymore. He could voluntarily bleed himself.
Hum!
The Soul Alpha Wolf, which had a hint of blood on it, was much more resistant to sunlight.
He was also emitting the powerful aura of Extraordinary Rank-5!
Roar!
Then, it roared again and charged at the Metal Man that had been hit three times in a row and finally managed to get up.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh …
Sensing the Soul Alpha Wolf's attack, the Metal Man, which had been repeatedly injured, immediately shot two metal shards at it.
However, they went straight through the Soul Alpha Wolf and didn't cause any damage!
Seeing that, the Metal Man was immediately alarmed. Blue light shone from its body, and it was ready to fly to distance itself from the Soul Alpha Wolf.
Clang!
However, just as it "started", it instantly "stalled"!
Because the Topaz Pipa's soundwave and a mental attack hit it almost at the same time.
The Metal Man could fly very fast. Theoretically, even the Soul Alpha Wolf couldn't catch up to it. However, at this stage, it couldn't be faster than the speed of sound and mental power!
Roar!
The next moment, the Soul Alpha Wolf pounced on the Metal Man that had fallen to the ground, and a large amount of black soul energy enveloped its body.
The next moment, the Metal Man's movements suddenly became sluggish!
A few seconds later, the Soul Alpha Wolf took shape again, but the Metal Man on the ground had already stopped moving.
["You have killed a Metal Man (Extraordinary …). EXP gained … Honor gained …"]
Ji Ye knew that if he hadn't been in the middle of a racial battle, he would have already sensed the notification.
The Soul Alpha Wolf's attack was even more effective than Nie Xiaoqian's and Chu Yin's mental attack.
After all, the latter couldn't kill them directly!
Of course, strictly speaking, the fact that it could kill a Metal Man so easily had to do with Nie Xiaoqian's and Chu Yin's mental attack.
The Metal Men's souls weren't very strong, but they weren't completely defenseless against soul attacks.
The Extraordinary power of electromagnetism was very destructive to soul creatures. When the Metal Men moved at high speed, the blue light they emitted was probably enough to destroy low-level soul creatures!
In addition, the Metal Men had metals that could ward off evil such as silver in their bodies. Ordinary soul creatures probably wouldn't dare to charge in at all.
Of course, the Soul Alpha Wolf was clearly not an ordinary soul creature. After devouring the soul power of the Thousand-Year Tree Demon and some Netherguards in the Battlefield of Providence, the Soul Alpha Wolf's soul level had reached the peak of Extraordinary Rank-4. With the enhancement of its blood, it had even reached Extraordinary Rank-5.
Even Extraordinary soul creatures wouldn't be able to resist the devouring, let alone these Metal Men whose souls weren't very strong.
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!
At this moment, the rest of the Metal Men suddenly stopped attacking. Instead, they turned around and retreated deeper into the territory, flying close to the ground.
Obviously, the Metal Men had realized that something was wrong after the series of crashes and collisions, and now that one of their companions had been killed, they chose to give up the first line of defense!
Seeing that, the people of the Twin Dragon Mount didn't rush to chase after them.
Ji Ye reached out and took a silver ball with a gray glow that the Soul Alpha Wolf had brought back.
[Silver Liquid]
[Level: Extraordinary Rank-1]
[Rarity: Common (offering)]
[Description: The silver blood, the core of the Metal Men, has the ability to extract metals and manipulate basic electromagnetism. When fused into metals, it can change some of their properties and even give some metals the ability to transform!]
"This … is very powerful. What a pity that it's an offering!"
Qin Yueyu was a little surprised after reading the description.
"One of them dropped an offering. If we kill a few more of them, they won't all be offerings!"
Wu Qiao was even more moved.
If this spoil of war wasn't an offering, it would definitely have the word "Rare" in its attributes.
This was because it was of great significance to both the settlement and the individual.
If it was used as a sacrifice, the person who was summoned and fused with it was very likely to obtain superpowers similar to the Metal Men. If it was used to research and create alloys and weapons, it would definitely be a rare material of the highest quality.
"Master, the enemy has escaped. Should we pursue them?"
Yang Zhi asked with fighting spirit in his eyes.
"We can pursue them, but let's wait for a while."
"Li Qing, go back to the fort and ask Elder Hu to bring the spoils of war left behind by the Soul race. We'll officially attack after the sun sets!"
In the Twin Dragon Mount, only Chu Yin and Nie Xiaoqian had the ability to directly attack the mind, but there were many who had the ability to attack the soul!
Wu Song had the Tiger Soul Saber, Ji Ye had the Totem Wolf Skin … Not to mention Ninth Uncle and Gongsun Sheng, the two Daoist priests.
Most importantly, there were some items with soul attack abilities among the spoils of war obtained after killing the Soul race last time!
These seemingly powerful Metal Men were clearly not a big problem for the Twin Dragon Mount fort.
