Sheyan couldn't help but raise his head to look, he could feel that the floating keys had a layer of hazy colour. The Metals professor thought for a moment before crying out.
"Not good! I reckon the damage done to the mechanism after 10,000 years is evident. Do you still remember the radiance released by the hammer previously? Using modern language, that radiance should be an unknown energy source. This energy is used to recharge the mechanisms around the hall, forming this light belt, causing the hidden winged keys to surface! "
"That means, once the energy source is depleted, then naturally these winged keys will be transferred to another dimension! If that's the case, to obtain another chance to capture the keys, we have to wait for the dwarf's war hammer to absorb enough energy before it can be activated. Who knows how much energy this thing will absorb after 10,000 years, or even if it can absorb enough energy, it is still unknown! " “
"So, let's do it!" The Metals professor did not conceal his viciousness.
"Let's cherish this precious time, everyone attack together!" “
With the Metals professor's command, even Phelps could only charge forward. The room was originally rather spacious, those keys were densely packed within, there were at least tens of thousands of them. It seemed like just searching for them would be an arduous task. Deke worshipped and trusted the Metals professor the most, in addition his agility was the highest amongst them, hence he took the lead and charged forward. Wherever he passed by, he would bump into several floating keys. But these keys were like seaweed in the sea, leisurely floating in the air. After a long while, they would flap their wings, continuing to enjoy their gliding posture.
"Over there!" Deco suddenly yelled out, within his yell there was some obvious surprise.
At the place where Deco was pointing, a key that was clearly different from the others was quietly floating not far from the ground. It had 6 wings, and its volume was huge. The material of the key looked exactly the same as the stone door, engraved with mysterious words. It looked like it was ancient hebrew, and the meaning of these words should be similar to the 'Six Syllables Mantra' of Buddhism. The key seemed to be unusually comfortable in the light. It even flipped lazily from time to time, like a fat man sunbathing on the beach.
Deke dashed forward, leaping up and grabbing onto the key. Although he couldn't utilize any abilities here, a contestant's physique far exceeded that of an ordinary person. With this leap, he was at least 1-2 metres high. In a flash, he directly pulled down the key and sprinted towards the door.
According to Deke's running speed, if he was empty-handed, he would at most be 30 metres away from the stone door. Sprinting at full speed, it would only take 3-5 seconds. But after he hugged the key, he realized that the strength of the key was shockingly strong. Don't talk about hugging it while running, even forcefully holding it down was a problem. His heart was nervous and excited, as he hurriedly shouted out.
"I need help!!"
At present, Phelps was the closest to Deke. With their combined strength, they pressed the huge key onto the ground, dragging it with great difficulty towards the stone door. That key frantically flopped about on the ground, but it could only despair. It was like a peddler being chased by a large group of city enforcers. It could only watch helplessly as its livelihood slowly drifted away.
But at this moment, a strange buzzing sound entered his ears. It was as though millions of bees were vibrating their wings.
Looking again, he realized that those keys floating leisurely in the air had started flapping their wings at high speed. They angrily and impatiently shuttled through the small area. As that key was pulled closer, a large number of keys furiously shuttled through the air in a high speed arc! Initially, it was a brass key that brushed past Deke's cheek, leaving behind a trail of blood. Following that, it was two keys, three keys, ten keys!
More terrifyingly, with them as the core, a multitude of winged keys appeared to have gone berserk, as they frantically flew in arcs. Due to the terrifying number of keys, they formed circle after circle of afterimages. The flight trajectories of thousands upon thousands of keys overlapped. Sheyan couldn't help but associate it with the embryonic form of a hurricane that raised torrential waves! At the same time, even he, who had been abandoned by the wall, was scratched by a flying key. A trace of blood appeared on the back of his hand.
In this instance, Sheyan suddenly received a notification from his nightmare imprint.
"You received an attack from a winged key. You received 7 points of damage. This damage has the ability to ignore any defence. Its precedence is: Domain precedence."
"You received an attack from a winged key. Your innate ability: 'Endurance' activated … …"
"Conflicting data, determining precedence … …"
"Data anomaly, data anomaly."
"Determining … …"
"Determining effect: Your innate ability: 'Endurance' activated, forcibly reduces any physical damage by 25 points."
"You received 1 point of damage this time."
Sheyan looked at this series of notifications, he couldn't help but take in a deep breath. If his innate ability had only attracted Qiao Gun's attention during the previous battle, then now he deeply understood the might of 'Endurance'! Even the classical mechanical damage of the ancient dwarves and goblins could be exempted … … one must understand, this mechanical 'metal digestion system' concept, even the ultimate boss Dumbledore had to absorb it! His eyes suddenly revealed a pensive look, the desire in his eyes intensified as he once again pretended to be unconscious.
At the same time, Phelps who sensed something was amiss had already let go of his hand and frantically cried out. His exposed skin was already dripping with fresh blood.
"Deke! Quickly let go, if not we will all die here! "
From afar, the Metals professor furiously roared.
"You can't let go, did you forget the words on the door? Courage!!! "
Deke clenched his teeth, he had always been exceptionally respectful and trusting towards the Metals professor. Clenching his teeth, he persisted and dragged the huge key for 2-3 metres. Realizing his HP was frantically dropping, he couldn't hold on any longer. He let go of his hand, allowing the huge key to swiftly escape back to its previous location. Its 6 wings flapped extremely slowly, it looked like it was having a hard time flying.
However, after realizing something was amiss and giving up on capturing the winged key, Deke and Phelps were still dead! They died without leaving behind even their bones!!
Because even though they had released the huge winged key, it didn't mean the remaining winged keys would immediately cease their berserk rampage! The half-formed winged key hurricane continued to revolve frantically. The entire hall's stone walls and floor continuously emitted sparks. The entire hall was completely occupied by this terrifying and berserk steel whirlpool. Even the incomparably mournful cries of Deke and Phelps were drowned out. Fortunately, the frequency of the Metals professor's attacks was far less than Deke and Phelps, hence they only suffered light injuries.
After the huge winged key returned to its original position, the hurricane gradually subsided. Very quickly, everything returned to its previous peaceful state. Only the ground was littered with fresh blood, and some of the keys were dangling with bloody flesh. Pale white bone fragments were sticking to the surface, displaying the previous horror and cruelty!
At this moment, the light rays in the sky had once again dimmed. Obviously, the energy was starting to deplete. The floating winged keys were faintly discernible. The Metals professor's eyes flashed with hostility, directly walking to Sheyan's side, grabbing him by the neck and pulling him up.
"Get up, I saw you just woke up."
Sheyan shrugged his shoulders and helplessly replied.
"Boss, Deke and Phelps weren't able to handle it and died here. Do you think I can succeed? Don't overestimate me! "
The Metals professor lowered his voice and replied.
"This time, the 3 of us will go together!"
Sheyan's heart stirred, his eyes flashed with a stern glint.
"Alright!"
At this moment, time was of the essence. The three of them joined hands and charged forward, grabbing the gigantic Winged Demonic Key and flying backwards. The gigantic Winged Demonic Key was clearly dissatisfied with the treatment it received. It frantically flapped its wings and did its best to twist its body. However, under the combined efforts of the three, it was swiftly dragged to the side of the stone door. Just as it was about to be forcefully stuffed into the keyhole by the six hands, the Winged Keys that were floating in the air began to stir.
"1, 2, 3 … … .shove it in!" The Metals professor's voice was filled with nervousness, but also fanatical anticipation. He shouted out loudly. But! At the count of three, everyone let go of their hands at the same time! That huge winged magic key suddenly regained its freedom, it immediately flapped its wings and flew back in. If it wasn't for Fanu's quick reflexes, he would've been sent flying away.
Swoosh! A bronze winged key swept past the Metals professor's face at high speed, causing sparks to fly off his mask. His gaze was gloomy and cold like a flickering phosphorescence floating in a graveyard. It scorched onto Sheyan's face, as though it would emit a puff of green smoke. He stared at Sheyan and uttered word by word.
