Clang! Clang! Clang!
The Wind-Up Man Beverly's posture of chopping bullets was ten times more exaggerated than Elvin's. He didn't even bat an eyelid when dozens of muskets fired at him.
He even laughed maniacally as he charged towards the musket formation despite the rain of bullets.
Even the experienced and knowledgeable navy elites who followed Elvin had never seen such a scene, let alone the natives and pirates.
The musket formation couldn't help but stir slightly. Barely maintaining the firepower was already a sign of their strong will.
At this moment.
Mal —
Behind him, Milan raised the black crystal bracelet in her hand and shot out a gray stream of light, striking the charging Clockwork Man like lightning.
[Witchcraft — Curse of Misfortune!]
At the same time, Gary, who was wearing heavy armor, had already jumped up and shouted, "Get ready!"
"Invincible!"
The Marine soldiers who had gathered around him followed with a roar.
Whoosh —
The various fish skins around their waists quickly expanded and extended. In a breath, they had turned into tall "fish monster" warriors.
It was also these "fish monster" warriors who had reached the late stage of the Probationary level that had broken the barely organized formation of the guards and dealt them the heaviest blow.
Clang —
They threw away their muskets and drew their cutlasses from their waists. They took a step forward.
"Kill!"
It had to be said that the more they fought on land, the more the cooperation and courage of a regular army could be displayed. At critical moments, they could rely on each other.
"Wow! They're even more monsters than I am! "
But even now, the "Clockwork Man" was still nonchalant, as if he didn't care about them at all. He even praised them exaggeratedly.
Boom!
He had already crushed the path under his feet.
He pounced towards Gary, who was standing at the front of the formation and wearing heavy armor like a steel wall.
The wheel-shaped axe that seemed to be able to split a mountain was a joke in front of him.
The two shiny swords in his hands were like two swimming fish. They easily bypassed the heavy axe in Gary's hands and slashed at his neck, which was the weakest part of his defense.
It was like a mouse playing with an elephant.
However.
Crack!
Coincidentally, a gear in a certain part of his body inexplicably jammed, causing his incomparably sharp blade that was about to behead Gary to slow down for a moment.
The slightest difference could lead to a great error.
His body continued to charge forward, but he did not hit the neck as he had expected. Instead, he landed a solid blow on the thickest part of Gary's armor, his chest.
But even so, the humanoid tank-like Gary was easily sent flying like a baseball.
Rumble!
Many of the "fish monster" warriors behind him were smashed to the ground. If it had landed on an ordinary person, their bones and tendons would've been broken.
"Hmm? Is there something strange about it? "
At this time, he also realized that the seemingly useless magic light shot out by Milan just now actually had a danger that he couldn't understand for the time being.
Putting away some of his nonchalance, he decided to end the battle quickly. After dealing with these audacious pirates, he could then guard the treasure and wait for the Shilius officials to send him the commission he deserved!
Although he could sit back and watch his companions die in battle for the sake of money, there was no limit to what he could do.
But no one could doubt the credibility of the "Clockwork Man" Billy Buddha. This was also the foundation of a mercenary.
"I'm done playing with you. Obediently hand over your heads and turn them all into my bounty!
I'll start with you, wizard who knows how to use strange spells. Die! "
He crossed the two swords in his hands above his head like the horns of a mad bull. White steam spewed out of the four holes on his back. With the support of surging momentum, he bent down and charged forward.
Boom!
He went straight for Milan, who was standing behind the opened array and did not seem to have any combat ability.
His momentum was as if he was going to cut all obstacles in his way in half!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Seeing this, the nearby pirates immediately resumed their suppressive fire.
But this time, the "Clockwork Man" did not even bother to dodge. The lead bullets that hit his metal body were immediately deformed and scattered. Unless they were aimed directly at his face, they would only make him tilt his head slightly.
The distance between the two of them was less than ten meters in the blink of an eye.
The cold gleam of the two swords was almost imprinted in Milan's eyes. She did not have time to react, and the fear on her face almost froze.
"Get … out of my way!"
Accompanied by a thunderous roar, a longsword wrapped in wind and thunder flew towards the Clockwork Man's back in the form of a white rainbow.
Feeling the power of the sword, Billy Buddha's expression finally changed slightly. He did not dare to test the power of the sword with his own body.
He exerted force on his feet and twisted his waist to dodge to the side. The tip of the sword that was almost chopped off brushed past Milan's shoulder, and the cold gleam of the blade took away a few strands of her hair.
"Ha … Ha …"
Her brush with death had only lasted for a moment, but Milan already felt cold sweat drenching her clothes. A drop of water even slid down her forehead.
Whoosh!
Elvin, who was also scared, chased after the "Clockwork Man" and passed by Milan's side.
At this time, Milan's legs gave way and she sat on the ground. She turned around and shouted at Elvin's back, "Be careful!
This guy is definitely more powerful than a peak-level Knight! "
"I know. Hide yourself!"
At this time, Elvin was very sure that this guy, who looked like a mechanical body but still had some flesh and blood, had not appeared in front of the seagulls from beginning to end.
In other words, in the past month, unless he also had a "magic pocket", he had not eaten or drunk anything. He had been hiding in that cramped box for his body size.
This terrifying endurance alone was beyond the reach of any Transcendent Knight.
However.
The "Clockwork Man" Billy Buddha's brief dodge was not because he was afraid of Elvin, but because he did not want to kill the wizard at the cost of his body.
After passing by him for only two steps.
Hum!
His legs were still moving forward, but his upper body turned 180 degrees with his waist as the axis. He turned around and swung his sabers. The two sabers turned into dazzling thunderbolts, faster than when he dealt with Gary! And more ruthless!
Clang!
The back of the saber hit the weak body of Elvin's sword and successfully offset the force it carried.
Then, as if he was not affected by his current posture at all, he brandished the two sabers in his hands and clashed with Elvin's dazzling sword light again.
Although he failed to hurt Elvin, who was chasing closely behind him, he succeeded in interrupting his pursuit.
His legs continued to run until he was 100 meters away. Then, he stood still on the ground and his lower body turned on its own, returning to its normal state.
Billy Buddha's red eyes narrowed again. He looked at Elvin from head to toe and asked with great interest, "Hey, Elvin.
"Yo, you've already dealt with that treacherous Rudolph?"
Elvin did not answer his question. He was also observing this strange guy.
Based on the data collected by his Data Analyzing Vision during the fight, as well as his sensitivity to life and machinery as an Activation School student, Elvin found that only half of his body was left.
He found that only its head, most of its chest, and one of its arms were still made of human flesh. However, most of its body tissues and organs, including its heart, had been replaced by machines.
But even the remaining flesh was still very vigorous, even stronger than the vitality of a normal peak-level Knight. Apart from the traces of alchemy, there were no other signs of Transcendent energy in the mechanical body.
In the body data, Constitution was meaningless to such an existence. Strength 5.2 and Speed 5.6 had both exceeded the limit of Level Two.
"A combination of flesh and machinery alchemy. What's your relationship with those evil alchemists?"
As a member of the School of Alchemy, it was impossible for Elvin to not know about the evil Alchemists. They wanted to combine flesh and machinery to obtain eternal life, and they did not hesitate to carry out a large number of forbidden experiments.
Was this "Clockwork Man" the result of their research?
"Ha. Who knows?"
However, Elvin noticed that when he said "evil alchemists", the "Clockwork Man" named Billy Buddha's eyes shrank and retracted much faster.
Obviously, he was not as calm as he appeared to be.
"Although you've almost reached the limit of a Level Two Knight, you're still no match for me.
I hate procrastination. I'd better cut you all into seventeen or eighteen pieces in one go! "
He threw out a smoke bomb that emitted a very strong smell, and everyone on the scene could not help but keep retreating.
Slowly, he took out a palm-sized clockwork key from his shabby pocket and inserted it into a hole in his left chest. Then, he twisted the key twice with his last remaining arm.
Creak! Creak!
The sound of a strong clockwork tightening could be clearly heard.
In fact, what Elvin saw just now was only the surface.
The main energy source of the "Clockwork Man" was a miniaturized "steam furnace."
It had a total of three energy sources: the biological energy of the body, the elastic potential energy of the mechanical clockwork, and the thermal energy of the steam furnace.
Although compared to the "Golem Knight" that had appeared in the Nederlands Bank, its power was reduced due to the miniaturization, and its output was not at the level of a senior Grand Knight.
However, it was still far more powerful than the fragile body of flesh and blood. It had reached the lowest level of a Level Three Grand Knight.
Of course, his attributes were really just cold numbers. They would not gradually increase due to training, physical liberation, or swordsmanship, except for one situation …
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Whoosh!
The loud roar of a large steam engine came from Billy Buddha's body, and the four air holes on his back suddenly spewed out hot white steam.
He held two sabers in his hands, and his wrists turned into extremely sharp saber lights.
There was no trace of Transcendent swordsmanship. The only trick of his saber technique was its speed! It was faster than the human body's reaction speed!
This was the only exception. [Steam Furnace Overload!]
Standing outside the range of the smoke bomb, Elvin had already realized that the "Clockwork Man" had exceeded the limit of Level Two.
His eyebrows were slightly furrowed under the mask, but the fighting spirit in his eyes was gushing out!
His "physical liberation" had quietly reached 85%, and the activating aura in his body had injected excessive activity into his body. It was also the first time this ability was used in an official battle.
His heart was beating, and he seemed to be able to hear the high-speed flow of blood in the blood-red aura. Every muscle wriggled and swelled like a living creature, and the surface of his body was suffused with red Transcendent aura.
[Activating Aura Overload!]
Looking at Billy Buddha, who was like a volcanic eruption, Elvin held his sword with both hands.
An invisible pressure kept accumulating between the two of them.
A leaf gently fell.
Sizzle!
It suddenly turned into powder.
