A Mechanic's Moment in the Spotlight

Dark clouds loomed overhead, threatening a storm.

The moment the golden antler helmet snapped shut, Rein was speechless as he stared at the Six-armed Steel Giant slowly rising before him.

That invisible pressure made it seem as if an invincible demon god was slowly walking out of the abyss.

It was born for battle;

It came to kill;

After it drew its sword, it was determined to wreak havoc!

The roar of gunfire, like the deafening sound of drums and gongs, heralded its grand entrance.

The Beast Tide has the force of a mountain torrent, sweeping away everything in its path, and is unstoppable.

At this moment, the Beast Tide had already approached within a hundred meters.

Not far away, a Third Tier Silverhead Leopard, more than ten meters long, had already quietly approached. Its figure was swift, and it curled up its body before leaping up and pouncing on its prey.

"Whoosh~"

A dark shadow flashed by.

The black panther pounced on the "Deer-head Battle Armor," snapping its fangs in the process.

Just as it was about to escape, a large, metallic-looking iron clamp suddenly grabbed its neck, and with three hands clamping down on its three legs, it tore them apart violently!

With a tearing sound, blood rained down, and the black panther was torn to pieces.

The Tier 3 Magical Beast was torn into pieces of flesh and blood in the blink of an eye. What immense force!

Rein was too shocked to speak.

Bazel, standing to the side, also had a tremor in his eyes, his face filled with disbelief. The [Silverhead Leopard] had muscles as solid as iron; he could easily kill this Tier 3 Magical Beast, but he couldn't tear it apart like this.

The power of machinery is truly terrifying.

At this time,

The mechanical giant didn't glance at the corpses on the ground, turning its gaze to the surging "Beast Tide" in the distance.

It was a swarm of brightly colored Striped Spider, densely packed and countless. They swept through like locusts, leaving nothing but barren land in their wake.

Click click click

A crisp metallic clanging sound rang out.

Just then, the two Sixteen-barreled Firearm on the Steel Giant's shoulders began to slowly rotate, and their speed visibly increased.

The next second, with a "click", the mechanism clicked.

Bullets gushed out, and a strange Green Flame, like a writhing venomous snake, emerged from the gun barrel.

Then, something truly astonishing happened!

Bullets fired rapidly, connecting in front of the barrel to form an arc of light. From a distance, it didn't look like bullets being fired, but rather a long Green Light Whip lashing out towards the Beast Tide.

As the "Green Light Whip" was drawn, both Rein and Bazel widened their eyes in surprise.

No one could have imagined that this seemingly soft whip of light possessed a destructive power that sent chills down one's spine!

It wasn't a penetration, nor a burn; the giant spider struck by the light whip exploded like a watermelon, turning into pieces of flesh and blood.

Rein's pupils constricted sharply, and he exclaimed in surprise, "What kind of gun is this? How can it be so powerful?"

If he hadn't looked closely and seen that the gun was spitting out bullets, he would have thought he was seeing an arc weapon from his previous life.

"High-Explosive Bullet?"

Seeing this, Bazel's pupils also contracted sharply, and he said in confusion, "No, even a 'High-Explosive Bullet' could not cause such explosive damage!"

The two immediately realized that there was something strange about the bullet!

Ordinary musket bullets can penetrate the exoskeleton of this spider, but for its calf-sized, obese body, it would take at least a hundred bullets to cripple it.

Even High-Explosive Bullet would probably only create a hole about the size of a fist.

But this green bullet, with its incredible power, instantly blasted a whole swarm of giant spiders apart. This was an absurd power that no other firearm bullet on the market could achieve!

With just one burst of bullets, the old man carved a deep trench not far from the camp.

Anyone who crosses the line dies!

That's how domineering it is.

However, the monsters in the "Beast Tide" had lost their minds and charged forward wave after wave. In the blink of an eye, a wall of flesh and blood several meters high was formed by the severed limbs and broken arms a hundred meters away.

Crimson bits of flesh and spider fragments flew through the air from the explosion, like bursting blood-red fireworks.

It was already invincible from the very beginning.

"Those are the 'Phosphorus-Rich Element Bullet' that my grandfather developed."

Just then, Karl walked over and offered an explanation.

He walked over to Rein, presumably to protect him, and explained, "Besides being a mechanic, Grandpa also had a deep understanding of alchemy. This is a special bullet he created by combining Ancient Alchemy; the bullethead has Enchantment Inscription for 'explosion'."

Rein didn't know much about mechanics and was completely confused by what he heard.

But Bazel exclaimed in surprise, "Enchanted bullets? Like the 'Silver Bullet'?"

As a werewolf, he recognized a special enchanted bullet that struck fear into the hearts of his werewolf clan.

Karl didn't recognize Bazel and was slightly wary, but he still replied, "Yes. The 'Silver Bullet' enchantment is [Exorcism], and it's also a type of special bullet. My grandfather learned his inscription skills from a down-on-his-luck alchemist. He was being chased at the time, and my grandfather saved him."

"."

Bazel's eyelids twitched as he listened.

He remembered that the secret method for inscribing those bullets had been lost for a long time.

Because whether they are werewolves or vampires, they will all be killed if they encounter these ancient alchemists.

Unexpectedly, that thing could be used in this way, in addition to being used to deal with creatures of their dark bloodline.

He paused for a moment.

Karl continued, "But Grandpa improved the formula further, creating special bullets for different situations. This 'Phosphorus-Rich Element Bullet' is just the most basic type. Unfortunately, the production volume is too low; I have to press it on the machine for a long time to produce just a few."

As if to confirm his statement, reality immediately responded.

Tap, tap, tap, tap-click!

The old man's musket was incredibly powerful, but it went silent after only a few bursts.

Karl shrugged, seemingly expecting this, and gestured with his chin, "Look, out of ammo. We'll have to change the ammo box soon before we can fire again. It'll also give the barrel a chance to cool down."

Rein's face twitched as he watched the dark, swarming Beast Tide surge forward again without any firepower suppression. He asked, "Aren't you worried about your grandfather?"

Karl didn't understand and asked in return, "Why should I worry?"

Rein pointed at the Beast Tide: "After all, there are so many magical beasts."

Hearing this, Karl smiled and said, "Oh, Brother Rein, you're overthinking it."

He said, "We were already safe when Grandpa decided to bring this 'Muscle-bound Deer God Battle Armor' into existence. The 'Vulcan Cannon' is just the most basic function of this Mechanical Armor; it has many other trump cards."

Upon hearing this, Rein was still slightly worried.

Although I suspect this high-tech mecha is definitely not that simple, sir

But suddenly, he noticed something strange and asked, "Wait, what did you say your grandfather's armor was called?"

Karl asked seriously, "'The Muscle-bound Deer God Battle Armor,' what's wrong with that?"

"."

Rein's eye twitched. "Nothing, nothing."

Sure enough, the father and son have a rather unique aesthetic when it comes to naming things.

Because the ammunition box was empty.

At that moment, the giant spiders also bent over and sprayed out large webs of spider silk.

Dozens of large webs were laid out, sealing off all escape routes—a web-like tactic used by them to collectively hunt large prey. Even if they couldn't control the Steel Giant, they could at least restrict its movements. More webs were to follow, enough to completely trap a High-tier Demonic Beast.

However, another surprising scene unfolded.

The slimy, snot-like, yet extremely sticky spiderweb sprayed onto the Steel Giant, only to slide off like rain. It seemed the armor offered absolutely no resistance, remaining completely untouched by the spiderweb!

Rein felt as if he was seeing a high-tech technology that he was familiar with from his previous life.

Isn't the "ink-splash-free" technique a micro-molecular coating technology commonly used in the past?

Obviously not.

This is just another kind of alien black technology.

At this moment, Karl, the competent little commentator, timely explained, "This is also an Ancient Alchemy Enchantment Inscription: [Smoothness] and [Elemental Magic Immunity]. It makes the mechanical armor smooth and less prone to sticking, and also provides extremely high magic resistance. Most mainstream elemental magic is basically useless against this mech."

Rein was truly shocked when he heard this.

Iron Man armor, needless to say, has extremely high physical defense. Now it also has magic immunity, so isn't this thing invincible?

Bazel's expression also changed slightly. He, who had previously been dismissive of machines, now looked increasingly serious, as if he had an anxiety that traditional Transcendent would be rendered obsolete by advanced technology.

Suddenly curious, Rein blinked and asked Bazel, "Senior, what do you think?"

Bazel's eye twitched, as if he'd just tasted lemon juice, and he said quietly, "Not bad."

Then came another violent and bloody visual feast.

In the short time it took for Rein and the other two to exchange those few words, the Beast Tide had already surged forward.

But the Mechanical Armor controlled by Old Man Tuster did not retreat at all. Instead, it drew four Black Gold Greatsword from its back and charged directly into the Beast Tide.

Four large swords and a giant sword were wielded in a dense, impenetrable manner.

The blade is five meters long, so the cutting trajectory is naturally frighteningly long.

With a single, swift stroke, the blade cut through everything in its path. Powered by the immense Steam Boilers, it spun around, cleaving all the monsters within a radius of over twenty square meters in two.

After the attack failed, more monsters surged in.

Limbs of various magical beasts flew everywhere; First Tier, Second Tier, and even Third Tier magical beasts were basically killed in just a few strikes.

The "Deer God Armor" requires no defense; it is impervious to poison, magic, and bites.

It charged around like a tank.

Chopping melons and vegetables, harvesting wheat, meat grinder

Watching this old man fight is like watching a cutting-edge technology and weapons exhibition from another world.

This is an ultimate level that no mechanic, no faction, and even the Oma Royal Academy of Sciences, hailed as the "holy land of steam technology," could achieve.

Rein had no accurate concept of the combat power levels of the "Ten Great Legends".

Regardless of his combat prowess, just considering his contributions to the technology of this era, this old man deserves the title of "legend" and is worthy of being recorded in history!

Lightning flashed and thunder roared in the sky, and torrential rain poured down.

In the misty rain,

Little Karl looked at the Steel Giant wreaking havoc, his little face beaming with a bright smile.

He saw not only a towering hero, but also a bright future for the mechanic profession.

The raindrops, as big as soybeans, pattered against that little face, but unexpectedly, the smile turned into tears.

His eyes filled with tears as he murmured, "Grandpa, is this the dream you told me about when you were young? Now, you've finally achieved it."

If you hold onto this dream, you can dedicate your whole life to it.

With just this one combat mech, this old man single-handedly raised the level of mechanical technology in this world by several decades!

Thirty years of dormancy, the darkest period of his life.

The "God of Steam" protected him and kept him alive. Only machines were the only lighthouse in his life, guiding him in the right direction.

After thirty years of biding their time, they have now made a name for themselves.

I, Tuster Forentes, have today proven the mechanic right.

The golden age of mechanics

It's finally here!
