The south of the city had the least number of beastmen and barbarians.
Zhou Chunlei, the old craftsman, was panting heavily as he struggled to control a giant bear that was twenty feet tall.
When he was young, Zhou Chunlei had seen a Demonic Bear King wreaking havoc on the city wall and retreating safely. He was shocked by the strength of the Demonic Bear King, so after he became a craftsman, he devoted himself to studying mechanical giant bears.
If it was ten years ago, he would not be like this. But now, he was already ninety years old. Whether it was his literary palace or his body, they were all deteriorating. Even when the Ruler of Heaven descended, it did not help him break through his literary palace.
However, when the mechanism emitted a faint red light, he suddenly realized that his mechanical giant bear was very easy to control. Its power had also become stronger. It felt as if he had returned to ten years ago.
Zhou Chunlei slowly straightened his body and stopped panting. Instead, he looked at the mechanical giant bear guarding the city wall as if he was looking at his own children.
The giant mechanical bear was covered in thick metal armor. Its two hind legs were wider, but there were no sharp claws or blades. Its two front legs were smaller, but each of them was embedded with sharp claws. Those claws were enough to tear apart the body of a demon marquis. Even when facing a demon king, they would be able to injure his flesh.
An agile Demonic Wolf Commander suddenly jumped up. The mechanical giant bear immediately extended its paw to slap it. However, a cunning light flashed in the Demonic Wolf Commander's eyes. It twisted its body and easily dodged the giant bear's paw. It slid past the giant bear's side and bit the giant bear's knee.
Zhou Chunlei was not worried. Instead, he revealed a disdainful smile.
The Demonic Wolf Commander's teeth bit down on the giant bear's knee. Moreover, it contained a powerful Blood Qi. However, it only left a shallow scratch on the giant bear's knee.
When the Demonic Wolf Commander realized that something was wrong, the more agile giant bear waved its right paw and heavily slapped the Demonic Wolf Commander's back.
Puff …
Half of the Demonic Wolf Commander's body was smashed into meat paste. It let out a miserable shriek.
At this moment, another Demonic Wolf Commander that had been waiting for an opportunity to strike saw an opportunity and pounced towards the Mechanical Bear's head. However, in the next moment, the Mechanical Bear opened its mouth and bit onto the Demonic Wolf Commander's head before swinging it violently.
Kacha!
The headless Demonic Wolf Commander's body fell onto the city wall with blood spurting out.
The Mechanical Giant Bear opened its mouth and spat out the wolf head. Blood sprayed out from the wolf head in the air and landed on the Barbarian Demons who were charging forward.
Many ants could bite an elephant to death. Because there were too many Demonic Barbarians and Demonic Barbarians, they were only probing. There were very few Demonic Marquises or Demonic Kings. Even so, they were still a huge threat. Zhou Chunlei originally thought that he could hold on for a quarter of an hour at most, but now he realized that he could hold on for a long time.
This was because ordinary Demonic Commanders were no longer able to threaten the Mechanical Giant Bear.
Originally, the Giant Mechanical Bear had sacrificed speed and agility to increase its strength and destructive power, but now, its shortcomings had disappeared.
"Old man Zhou, you're amazing!" a middle-aged Jinshi shouted.
"Haha, I wonder what kind of mysterious mechanism the Divine Craftsmen Palace used. It feels so good!" Zhou Chunlei glanced at the huge fireball in the sky.
There were many demons and barbarians in the east of the city, second only to the north of the city.
This was because, to the demons and barbarians, that place was backlit, but to the humans, the solar energy that was about to rise would cause slight visual interference.
The main force attacking the east of the city was the Demon Barbarians led by the Bull Demon.
A slender snake-shaped mechanism slithered along the city wall. It was about three feet long and two fingers wide. It had a rare ability to change color. No matter where it slithered, its body color would blend in with the surroundings. If one did not look carefully, it would be difficult to notice.
However, it was only an Elementary Scholar level mechanism. Moreover, the middle part of its body had been flattened by brute force, which greatly limited its speed.
Against the strong but not agile Demon Barbarians, as long as it was not attacked, this snake-shaped mechanism was almost invincible. It had a sharp cone in its mouth that could easily pierce through the body of a Demon General or even a Demon Commander. The wounds caused by it were extremely difficult to heal.
For a mechanism controlled by an Elementary Scholar, this was already terrifying enough.
However, once it was hit hard, it would become an ordinary mechanism. It could only attack the Demon Soldiers and Demon Civilians. When it encountered Demon Generals, it could only dodge.
The young Li Xianquan pursed his pale lips tightly. His eyes were extremely focused and did not care about the jokes of his comrades.
"I already said that you're not suitable to play with snakes. Look at you now!"
"When you become a High Scholar, you should change your mechanism. At least change it to a Mechanical Python."
"Mechanical snakes are really not suitable on the battlefield."
"Xiao Quan, take it back and repair it. Don't just sit there and do nothing. Mechanical snakes are known for their sneak attacks on High Demon Barbarians. Now that you can only attack Demon Civilians and Demon Soldiers, you're not even as good as our normal mechanism. "
Li Xianquan gritted his teeth and did not say a word. He was still concentrating on attacking the Demon Generals. However, his speed was not fast enough.
At this point, a red light descended from the sky.
"Ai?"
Li Xianquan suddenly realized that his snake-shaped mechanism, "Little Jian Er", had become more agile. Furthermore, the wounds on its body were slowly recovering.
Li Xianquan was pleasantly surprised. This was because he had to be at least a Scholar level to be able to repair the mechanism on the battlefield. Those Scholars who were able to repair mechanisms would only help Hanlin or higher ranked scholars. They would not care about a mere Elementary Scholar like him.
He raised his head and looked at the fireball in the sky. His eyes lit up as he looked at the nearest Demon Ox.
Under Li Xianquan's control, Little Jian Er slowly slithered to the side of the Demon Ox. Before the Demon Ox could react, Little Jian Er suddenly flew up and opened its mouth. A five inch long black awl emerged from its mouth. The awl was emitting a faint blue light. It was actually poisoned.
By the time the Demon Ox realized what was happening, it was already too late. Little Jian Er's mouth had bitten into the Demon Ox's stomach. The awl had pierced deeply into the Demon Ox's body. What was even more frightening was that the awl was still spinning.
The Demon Ox was in pain and anger as it kicked the awl.
However, Little Jian Er had already left the Demon Ox's stomach. With a 'sou' sound, it swam to another location. Under the effects of the protective camouflage, it had completely escaped from the Demon Ox.
The Demon Ox's stomach had a fist-sized hole that was spurting out blood.
The Demon Ox was about to search for Little Jian Er, but it had already been poisoned. Its body had also become slightly sluggish. When an arrow hit its head, it was unwillingly sent flying out of the city walls. Before it could even land on the ground, it had already died.
"Xiao Quan Er, not bad!"
A High Scholar who was sitting on a crossbow patted Li Xianquan's shoulder. He was sitting on a crossbow that could be moved by the wheels. He specialized in using the crossbow to kill heavily injured Barbarians.
Li Xianquan smiled shyly.
The High Scholar said, "Before you act, give me a signal. We will split the rewards equally!"
"Okay!" Li Xianquan nodded his head. He clenched his fists and looked for the next target.
In less than fifteen minutes, the two of them had worked together to kill two Demon Commanders and fourteen Demon Generals. The number of Demon Soldiers was uncountable. They were too lazy to deal with the Demon Civilians.
His comrades started to praise him, which made Li Xianquan even more enthusiastic.
