Li Yao and Professor Mo Xuan looked at each other and came to a conclusion at the same time.
Both of them were specialists in the production of the Crystal Suit. However, the obvious conclusion did not need specialists at all. Any ordinary person with normal eyesight could see it.
Armor was worn on the body. It was essentially a suit made of metal. Of course, it was hollow in the middle. Otherwise, where could the body be stuffed?
Even the super heavy armor that was relatively thick, such as the 'Ares Extension' that the Cultivators added to the Crystal Suit, was hollow in the middle no matter how thick it was!
The limbs and the body of the 'little giant', however, had been completely stuffed by all kinds of components. There was absolutely no space to accommodate the body.
Such a structure was definitely not armor but some sort of super-large metal puppet or artificial body.
"It can't be. Such a huge war puppet?"
Li Yao clicked his tongue in amazement. If one floor was three to four meters tall, the sixty to seventy meters tall war puppets would be twenty floors tall.
It was completely beyond the imagination of the two refiners. They were not shooting a movie. Did it have to be so unbelievable?
"How can such a huge war puppet be manipulated?"
Li Yao and Professor Mo Xuan were more and more curious. They tried their best to dig deeper into the rocks. Thankfully, after the violent collision tens of thousands of years ago, the crust of Kunlun had been seriously twisted. The structure of the rocks was not solid. Very soon, they dug out the torso of the little giant from the rocks.
It was not until this moment that they finally saw the fight between the two 'giants' clearly.
The weapon on the little giant's left arm that looked like a drill bit and also like a spear pierced through the giant's chest. However, the giant's claw also pierced deep into the little giant's chest, tearing the inside of the little giant's body into pieces.
A lot of broken metal components were revealed from the twisted gaps. The transmission tubes of spiritual energy were a mess like broken veins and nerves, too.
"Huh. This place seems to be hollow. There is a space that is neither large nor small!"
Li Yao discovered a very regular gap on the chest of the little giant. It was not ripped open by brute force but looked more like a 'cabin cover'. It was slightly open because of the twisted structure.
Li Yao tried, but the little giant had already fused with the rock and had completely lost its mobility. If he used any more strength, it was very likely that he would destroy its integrity.
Li Yao did not dare crawl into the gap recklessly, either. He simply asked Neltharion to fly in and investigate for him. He also projected everything that the crystal cameras captured to the sky through the Crystal Suit.
Swoosh!
Neltharion unleashed feeble mystic rays and zigzagged inside the chest of the giant. Very soon, it entered the secret chamber. After the mystic rays scanned the chamber, what appeared in front of the three of them was an egg-shaped chair that was half covered. Sitting inside the chair was …
Humans!
"Ah!"
Li Yao, Fire Ant, and Professor Mo Xuan exclaimed at the same time!
That's right, it was definitely a human!
Although he had been buried in the rocks for countless years, under the constant scourge of spiritual waves and minerals, he had been slowly mineralized like the "little giant".
However, the features of his bones, including his skull, spine, ribs, and pelvis, were almost identical to those of modern human beings!
Including his clothes, everything that could prove his identity had been reduced to powder. Also, there were no controllers or joysticks in the secret chamber other than the egg-shaped chair.
He simply sat cross-legged with his palms facing the sky, assuming a very strange posture.
From his extremely twisted jawbone, one could vaguely see that he was bristling with anger and roaring with thunder!
The scene was like a bolt of lightning that struck the three of them dumb. For three whole minutes, not only were they unable to utter a single word, they even found it extremely difficult to breathe!
"A human being less than two meters tall, a real compatriot who is exactly the same as us, has slain an arrogant giant almost a hundred meters tall in heavy armor with a super-enormous war puppet more than sixty meters tall!"
The fact made their eyes red and their hearts beat fast. Their blood was surging crazily inside their veins like a flood and almost flowing out of their every pore!
The Pangu! The legendary deities! They had the ability to move mountains and seas!
But they had fallen in the hands of an insignificant human being!
Slaying a deity!
This was the real slaying of a deity!
For a moment, Li Yao recalled the resolute, deafening, and heroic words deep inside his brain.
"Human beings are the strongest fighting species in the sea of stars!"
Suddenly, Li Yao felt extremely proud that he was a member of the civilization of mankind. His eyes were filled with boiling liquid beyond his control. There was no telling what it was exactly.
"We are human beings. We are a species that can even slay deities when we go crazy!"
Crazy roars were echoing in Li Yao's heart!
"I never knew that I would see such an unbelievable scene one day!"
It was not until three minutes later that Professor Mo Xuan managed to come back to himself. Staring at the super-large war puppet that was almost twenty floors tall, he mumbled, "Before, I always thought that the Crystal Suit was the most perfect single magical equipment on the battlefield and that war puppets more than ten meters tall were meaningless!
"Once the war puppets are more than ten meters tall, they will be faced with the problems of their fragile structure, the problems of being discovered and focused on by the enemy, the problems of power transmission, the problems of telepathic thoughts transmission and feedback … All in all, there are all kinds of problems. They are just a pile of super-large garbage. The bigger they are, the more garbage they are!
"Therefore, except for the Dazzling Light Phantom and the virtual games, we have never developed war puppets more than ten meters tall. We have always regarded the Crystal Suit as the 'king of magical equipment'!
"But right now …
"Hehe. Looking at this big guy, I feel that I've made a huge mistake in the first half of my life. I've lived in vain!
"How can the Crystal Suit be the 'king of magical equipment'? Such a super-large war puppet that can be manipulated by a human being and yet can blow up deities and devils should be the real king of magical equipment that dominates the sea of stars! "
Li Yao did not know what to say.
The material science, spiritual energy, and structural theories involved in such a super-large war puppet were far more advanced than the Xing Yao Federation and even the Star Ocean Imperium in the past. It was absolutely different from the war puppets that they had developed before.
However, he could understand what Professor Mo Xuan meant when he said that he had lived in vain.
It was because when he discovered that the war puppet that was twenty floors tall and could blow up deities and devils was actually manipulated by a 'puny' human being, Li Yao could not hold back the deepest desire in his heart anymore. He began to imagine what it would be like if he could be the controller of the war puppet and turn into the King of Destruction that was twenty floors tall, conquering the universe and slaying the deities and devils!
Compared with such a war puppet, the Crystal Suit was too … thin!
"I'm going to manipulate it!"
Li Yao's eyes were burning. Like a hungry wolf staring at a delicious drumstick through a barbed wire, he roared in his heart, "One day, I'm going to manipulate the real king of magical equipment!"
As if stimulated by his thoughts, an unbearable itch came over from his Cosmos Ring. It was Little Black who was calling him.
Li Yao was dazed for a moment. He released Little Black from his Cosmos Ring.
This lazy little fatty was different from his usual self today. First, he spun in a circle in the air. When he saw the "little giant", with a whoosh, a layer of sparkling brilliance appeared on his surface, as if his entire body was energized!
It couldn't wait to fly to the little giant's side and extend a few sticky tentacles from its round body. It poked left and right, and even drilled into the control chamber in the little giant's chest and circled around.
While Li Yao was puzzled, he slowly flew back in disappointment.
"Little Black, you haven't seen this thing before, have you?"
Li Yao asked in disbelief.
Little Black gave no comment. He waved his tentacles, as if he were saying, "You can't play with it. It's too boring!"
Then, the guy arched his butt and crawled back into his Cosmos Ring to sleep again.
Li Yao blinked hard. The super-enormous war puppet had been completely destroyed in the fierce battle. Also, it had been buried in the rocks for too many years and had been rusted and mineralized. Of course, it could not be activated.
However, could it be that Blackie would know how to play with a brand new super-large war puppet?
"Time is of the essence. Let's keep moving forward!"
Professor Mo Xuan finally calmed himself down and said in a shivering voice, "This is only the periphery of the intense metal reactions. We can come out and study it after we figure out what is inside!"
After all, the giant that was suspected to be from the Kuafu Clan and the super-enormous war puppet had been embedded in the rocks for millions of years. It was impossible for them to corrode any further. After confirming the coordinates of the place, the three of them flew all the way to the top of the cliff.
Very soon, they reached an altitude of more than five thousand meters and crossed the fold on the ground.
As far as their eyes could see, the clouds around them were rolling. Clusters of light and fog were tearing and swallowing each other like glittering behemoths. Dull thunder was vaguely echoing, too. —
After crossing the last barrier, they found themselves in a rare plateau on Kunlun. The 'ripples' were of the same height, but they were arranged in concentric circles.
At the center of the 'concentric circles' that were hundreds of kilometers in diameter was a deep, dark well.
"A lot of metal reactions have been detected up ahead. The mystic rays have detected a lot of human-shaped objects scattered in the rocks!
"A lot of spiritual energy is spurting out of the deep well incessantly. It's almost a spring of spiritual energy — no, a volcano of spiritual energy!
"Look. The few weird mountains on the horizon do not seem to be mountains but warships! They are the remnants of warships that crashed to Kunlun!
