The person in front of him had never been good at close combat, but he had run into the range that was within reach. In the eyes of the Lord of the Iron Wall, this was a mistake brought about by arrogance.
And the kick that he was confident in did hit the person in front of him. It even cut all the way from the crotch to the abdomen.
Although elemental creatures had no organs and weaknesses other than the elven core, such an injury was still a serious injury. Because the damage to the integrity of the whole body was quite obvious. So Vulcan was still proud of himself.
But this feeling didn't last for three seconds. The old opponent in front of him was the same as the previous dozens of rounds. He didn't care about life or death and directly turned into a liquid state, and the liquid covered his whole body along the leg that he kicked to the abdomen.
Covering Vulcan's whole body wasn't the end. With enough Nanobots working at the same time, they could control the Lord of the Iron Wall that was submerged by Hefquin. Suddenly, Vulcan retracted his leg, put his feet together, and straightened his hands, hanging by his side, close to his thighs. His whole body was tightly bound like this.
In the next moment, Hefquin turned into an iron maiden with the Lord of the Iron Wall in it. At the same time, she said, "I used to hate guys with empty heads. You don't even have a head, but you are still alive and kicking. Doesn't this prove that you are the type that I hate? If you can survive today, remember my new name: Hefquin. I am the Queen of the Hive, the first person to defeat you. But I won't be the only one. There are many people waiting in line to defeat you. Tell me, do you want them to have this opportunity? It's better to let this record end in my hands forever. '
The provocative question was accompanied by a heart-wrenching howl. The iron maiden that Heffquin had transformed into wasn't just filled with needles. It was all the flavors that Vulcan had tasted before, all of which were increased and strengthened. From the original no threat, it was upgraded to a threat.
But the physical damage didn't leave many marks on the body of the God's Tear Gold. The reason why the Vulcan was howling in pain was because of magic. It was an attack that targeted the soul, which was the Light of Elemental Creatures. This was also the reason why he had felt such excruciating pain earlier.
This was also the reason why people feared the former Elemental Lord Camilla the most. After she was transformed into a robot by the tinder, she did not give up on her magic attainments. Just as a certain Lich was worried, the Automaton's body was made of magical materials. If they wanted to use magic, all they had to do was change their minds. The barrier between technology and magic never existed.
Regardless of whether it was the fire, lightning, sawtooth, or drill, these densely packed attacks that covered the body of the Golden God's Tear could only cause a small amount of damage. However, if he allowed Camilla's magic to do any damage, it would be fatal. Therefore, although Vulcan was in pain and howling, he still used all his strength to break free from this unreliable torture device!
Hefquin had never thought of making Nanobots that strong, because the cost of doing so was to increase the damage rate of Nanobots. Dispersing and reassembling was easier than repairing or creating Nanobots. Therefore, the Iron Maiden, which had been destroyed from the inside, was broken into pieces under the great force of Vulcan and scattered everywhere.
After being hit by this series of attacks, Vulcan more or less understood Hefquin's attack pattern. The key was that the little things that had the same Light of Elemental Creatures were not scattered individuals, but a scattered group.
How much trouble could be caused to him depended on how many of them there were around him for his opponent to use. Therefore, when he broke free from the Iron Maiden, Vulcan did not hold back. He also hoped that the fragments could be sprayed farther away and not stay around to continue changing.
The strength of the Lord of the Iron Wall did not disappoint him. A few large fragments were sprayed far away and also knocked down many Automatons and members of the Iron Wall Army who were fighting. But after these fragments fell to the ground, they turned into the appearance of pocket-level Automatons. In twos and threes, they continued to charge toward the center of the battle between Vulcan and Hefquin.
The number of Hefquin's clones that Vulcan could spray out was, after all, a small number compared to the total number of Hefquin's clones. And more clones gathered on this battlefield during the short period of time when the Lord of the Iron Wall was trapped and surrounded them. It was like a vast ocean that separated the Lord of the Iron Wall from the other minions who were caught in the battle.
With a sufficient number of Nanobots as backup, Hefquin's tactics were upgraded again. Although it was still the same way of attack, it was attacking from multiple directions, and there were many more patterns.
The attack pattern was no longer just a close chainsaw or electric drill, or a variety of magic attacks. Sometimes, it would also condense into a plasma cannon or a railgun and shoot at Vulcan from zero distance. No matter how strong the body of the God's Tear Gold was, there was no way it could block it without being injured.
In the eyes of others, the battle here was not like a duel between two people, but a person and a strange object that kept changing its shape … pestering? It was as strange as it could be. But for the Automatons who had the same experience, not only could they empathize with it, but they even understood the bitterness in it.
Not to mention the Lord of the Iron Wall who was being targeted, the Leader level Automatons who were leisurely observing the battle, or the other Elemental Lords, did not let go of any details of this battle. They were all thinking about how to deal with Hefquin's unprecedented and difficult attack method. They didn't even know how to defeat this Automaton without a physical body.
The concept of Nanobots polymerization was now only mastered by Hefquin, and the other Automatons still did not know. Although there was related knowledge in the fire seed, a certain foundation was still needed to implement it. At the very least, the nuclear reactor with the phase-shift function was not something that anyone could successfully transform.
Moreover, there was only the knowledge of the first-generation phase-shift reactor in the fire seed, and it was already close to the limit of supplying 188 Automatons. Combined with part of Lin's knowledge of Blink, the second-generation phase-shift reactor was the main force supporting tens of millions of Nanobots.
It could be said that the knowledge of Blink had been mastered by a fourth person besides Fen and the Cassette Cutting. Even if it was only part of it, it did not involve the method of spatial jump. And in order to obtain this knowledge, Hefquin had made more than just two promises to a certain Mage.
But this kind of pestering couldn't bring about a decisive victory. Perhaps Hefquin's magic attack against the soul could, but Vulcan, who also understood this, had to be on guard against it. So the two sides were in a stalemate.
Maybe she was tired of fighting, or maybe she had found a way to break out of the stalemate, but Lin felt that it was also possible that there were enough Nanobots, so Hefquin was able to condense another Automaton's body. She was about the same height as Vulcan, but this time, she did not use the appearance of the past Elemental Lord, but the appearance when she first blocked a punch for a certain human Mage.
She had a girlish figure, thick forearms and calves with jet thrusters hidden inside, and a skirt armor with the same device. And the most obvious feature was the antenna that looked like a double ponytail. The difference was that Hefquin raised her right hand high, and a saber gradually formed in her palm.
