Oz, My Favorite (4k)

"(Falicia Language) Get out of here, you filthy scrap metal!"

Li Deweidensi swung his blade, and the red sword instantly filled the air with light, knocking thousands of mechs to the ground. Their mechanical bodies immediately rusted, and fat, wriggling maggots crawled all over them like rotting flesh.

Once a powerful Omega warrior, a demigod knight, and the successor of the Sharp Tooth Peak, even though a thousand years have obliterated his status and decayed his body, his skills have not diminished in the slightest.

He coldly swung his sword, his pure power subjugating the air to his dominion, taming it like a hunting dog as it pounced on its enemy. The scorching air slashed and rubbed against the air, even creating a dazzling red flame.

Meteor Strike

These are essential skills that advanced swordsmen specializing in the [Destruction] path must master.

As long as the battle takes place within the atmosphere, the [Meteor Strike] is the simplest, most brutal, and least strenuous attack method. It can be used to repel and suppress enemies at close range, or to kite and guerrilla-style attacks from a distance.

Most importantly, it does not consume any extraordinary energy, but rather places extremely strict requirements on the skill of swordsmanship.

Li Deweidensi coldly wielded his cursed blade, his left foot stomping on ice and snow, his right foot on mechanical corpses, fire and ice clashing in a true 'Song of Ice and Fire'.

The rhythm of destruction was actively rising, and the attacks by the Machine Citizens went berserk.

Li Deweidensi was calm.

His mind and body died 1,200 years ago; now only his withered soul remains.

There's nothing to complain about. Expelling these "social" citizens is simply our duty, just like how people scratch themselves, sneeze, or spit—it's about getting rid of harmful substances.

That's all.

His heart is dead; it can no longer be stirred. He knows neither hatred nor excitement.

He merely swung his weapon, repeating meaningless killings, and as a spirit, he felt no emotional fluctuations whatsoever.

"Mech-World Fusion, Transformation, Heavy Armor Dragon Saibert!"

Suddenly, Sophia Marlene was thrown onto the mountainside. The three combat mechs reassembled, forming a heavily armed red and white mechanical dragon. It swung its sharp claws, repeatedly slapping and tearing at the Fairy of the Lake. Its tail whipped the earth behind it, providing support and instantly lifting its heavy body, allowing the mech to raise its thick steel feet and crush Sophia Marlene hard.

Boom! Smoke and dust billowed up.

Li Deweidensi stood by indifferently, offering no words of support or assistance.

The Fairy of the Lake and he were merely partners. She took it upon herself to protect the tombs of heroes in Falicia, Li Deweidensi never asked her for anything; they simply shared the same goal.

He glanced at it and then continued his killing spree.

Repetitive, monotonous, and overwhelming killings.

His mind is barren, his emotions are shallow, he is neither grateful nor able to think flexibly.

Kill the enemy, spare the friendly forces, and treat everyone equally with indifference.

Perhaps because his status had been erased for too long, even the Star Abyss's Curse no longer affected him.

If it weren't for this massacre that awakened the fear in the mechs, perhaps Li Deweidensi would have been abandoned by the world long ago.

He raised his sword, about to aim at the next hilltop and clear out the mechs, when suddenly, a nimble figure flashed past him.

"Heave-ho!"

Caramel Snail leaped into the air, maneuvering its Implant Equipment Vanguard through a series of jumps and turns, while simultaneously unleashing a barrage of fire from its blood pressure cannon, instantly piercing and pulverizing several mechs with compressed blood.

"Amazing! Every shot hits!"

Garryton jumped to his side, threw a plasma cannonball, and gave a shout of praise.

"You flatter me. It's all thanks to this Implant Equipment Vanguard." Caramel Snail scratched its head sheepishly.

Garryton rolled his eyes at him. "I was talking about the armor's aiming assist."

"...(Civilized Summer)"

Caramel Snail muttered something to himself, then suddenly felt something was wrong behind him. He turned around and immediately met Li Deweidensi's gaze.

The pressure from the Epsilon-rank was overwhelming, pinning the two small Alphas piloting Delta-rank armors to the spot.

"Holy crap—" Garryton froze, feeling as if he had fallen into an ice cave. "We're doomed, is he going to hold us accountable for arson?"

When his two eyes met the other's twelve pupils, Caramel Snail was momentarily at a loss for where to look, but for some reason, he felt none of the terror that Garryton had felt.

A white wolf helmet, brass chains wrapped around his neck, faded armor, and a longsword stained with a crimson curse.

This image... looks so familiar.

The Caramel Snail seemed a little dazed, its eyes turning green.

"It's you, Knight Li Deweidensi..."

"(Falicia Language)... [God of Falsehood Destruction] Jio Zeiou."

Li Deweidensi uttered some incantation, engaging in a direct, private conversation with him:

"(Falicia Language) You have continued in a different form, though it took a full five thousand years... It's time for your feud with the Tailor to end."

"In short, I'm back."

A smile spread across Caramel Snail's face, his lips pressed tightly together, as he spoke face-to-face with Li Deweidensi:

"And I wasn't the only one who came back."

As he said this, Caramel Snail deliberately glanced at Garryton beside him.

"(Falicia Language)... This one too?"

"Yes, all of them."

Caramel Snail nodded in agreement.

For a fleeting moment, Li Deweidensi's withered heart seemed to skip a beat.

Li Deweidensi turned away without saying a word.

Garryton watched his departing figure, scratched his head, and looked at the equally bewildered Caramel Snail beside him:

"What's going on?"

"I'm not good at it. I'm just an amateur player, and you're asking me?"

The Caramel Snail shook its head, picked up the blood pressure cannon, and immediately broke into a happy smile:

"Time to mow the lawn!"

Garryton complained:

"If any amateur player plays games for the same amount of time as a professional player, your family should apply for a healthy gaming time for you. I don't know if you went to an engineering university or an e-sports university."

"Garryton, look! I've discovered a fun way to play with the blood pressure cannon, like this:"

Caramel Snail picked up the Blood Pressure Cannon, switched to the 10x scope, aimed at a dark, indistinct object in the distance, and pulled the built-in trigger:

"Sizzle—Bang!"

High-pressure steam leaked out, and the crimson blood was compressed into a hot, high-speed fluid under immense pressure, spanning several kilometers and splashing a red mark on the other person.

Driven by a wicked sense of humor, Caramel Snail meticulously sketched the shape of a double-barreled cannon using a blood pressure cannon. "Hehehehehehe! This is so much fun!"

"Holy crap, this is awesome! You can do this? I'm going to draw Kitagawa Kaimu on its back, and then Oyama Mahiro..."

Caramel Snail grinned, letting out a bright and cheerful laugh. Just as it was about to draw another Old Man Ding, it suddenly noticed that the thing in the scope abruptly turned its head, and four sets of thrusters on its back burst out purple flames, instantly rushing towards it.

[Warning! You have attracted the hatred of ' Machine World Councilor · Armored Dragon Cybert ' (Zeta-rank)!]

Garryton quickly threw away the blood pressure monitor and ran away as fast as he could.

"Newborn! What did you just spew? You spewed the machine world's councilor over here!"

"Ah?"

Caramel Snail was still immersed in its artistic ideas when it looked up and saw a 20-meter-tall mechanical dragon, heavily armed and equipped with firepower, charging straight toward it.

"You! You ant—"

The dragon opened its mouth wide and spewed out thick purple flames that stretched for hundreds of meters, completely enveloping and sealing off the Caramel Snail.

Oh no, now... there's no escaping it.

The heat distorted the air, scorching the Implant Equipment Vanguard. Even through the armor, Caramel Snail could feel the burning sensation on his face. He raised his arm to shield himself, instinctively saying, "I'm sorry, I was wrong! I'll never be a Zombie Dog again—"

Clang! A sharp blade pierced through time and space, instantly embedding itself in the ground in front of him.

Bear—! The flames crashed into the sword as if hitting a wall, separating it and spreading along both sides of the Caramel Snail's body.

"In the name of Sharp Tooth Peak..."

A slender, delicate girl stood before the Caramel Snail, her toes barely touching the ground. She raised her hand, gripped the sword that was blocked by flames, and declared forcefully, "We will forge and hammer our way into the entire world!"

A foot stepped onto the side of the Caramel Snail, and the boot gradually became wrapped in metallic particles, covered with a layer of armor. Then, a familiar voice rang out:

"What a mess, oh my god."

"...Eh."

This sound.

Caramel Snail raised its head, and Li Aoz, whose body was gradually wrapped in metal armor, picked up a bio-armored head, placed it on its own head, turned it left and right twice, and fixed it in place.

Just before the red magic traced his beautiful features along his tear trough, Li Aoz turned his head to look at Caramel Snail and chuckled softly, "Hey, missed me?"

Caramel Snail's eyes lit up. "Lioz —oops, Li Aoz!"

A metal helmet instantly materialized, completely enveloping Li Aoz. Crimson light shone through the grille-like visor, and a crack appeared along the lower edge of the helmet, revealing sharp, bright red teeth.

"Stand up, I still need you, Descendant."

He reached out his hand, waiting for the Caramel Snail to respond.

Jannia glanced at the situation, snorted coldly, and turned to shout loudly:

"True Name Activation! Vivid Demon Iron Monarch!"

*Snap! Caramel Snail firmly grasped Li Aoz's hand and stood up abruptly.

A smile appeared on the cyborg head beneath Li Aoz's helmet, then his gaze sharpened, and he casually made a gesture.

"The furnace burns fiercely, the hammer forges repeatedly, casting an iron body and a titanium soul."

With Jannia's shout, her body suddenly shot behind Li Aoz's, and the next moment a fierce red lightning bolt tore through the sky!

Crack!

A crimson light shone from the gaps in Li Aoz's armor, erupting with intense crimson demonic energy that cascaded onto the earth like a waterfall of blood before rapidly spreading outwards. Its speed was like a wildfire, ready to ignite at any moment.

In an instant, the vast amounts of steel, mech wreckage, and alloy-based mech lands were all taken back under Li Aoz's control, left to his whims and manipulation.

"This environment... is perfect for us to be the main battlefield! Let's gather all the gold and iron in the world and offer them as sacrifices to our great king!"

Metallic substances from all directions were evacuated and stripped away, spinning rapidly under the power of Jannia. Centered on the sky above Li Aoz's head, tens of millions of metals were swept up and surged in, forming a fierce metal storm. Red Lightning intertwined, and vicious, cruel laughter continued incessantly.

Fu ha ha ha ha ha...

A sinister, maniacal laugh echoed across the sky.

A crimson magic circle unfolded rapidly, and a terrifying and ferocious steel spirit emerged from the eye of a storm formed by metal. Flamboyant goat horns extended from its head, and its overly massive body could only extend three-quarters of its length from the magic circle-like storm.

Even so, it already has an exaggerated size of nearly 300 meters.

It spread its arms and embraced the snow-capped mountains. Its U-shaped pupils flashed with a heat as intense as the sun, and indescribable patterns formed bizarre designs, inspiring only genuine fear and dazzling dazzle in those who gazed upon it. Those who stared directly at it were repeatedly pierced and wounded by countless needles; the blood inside their skull activated and twisted, transforming into sharp swords that pierced the back of their heads, killing them instantly.

"The Vivid Demon Iron Monarch Karachia has descended upon the world; all mortals, even worms and ants, must bow down in submission!"

[Vivid Demon Iron Monarch: Activated]

[You have gained the temporary status: [Blood Lord] - You can directly manipulate ferrous ions within a 600-meter radius. All targets intending to attack you will be forced to undergo a [Constitution] check for 'anemia'.]

"The range has tripled... Jannia, your approval of me has increased quite a bit."

Li Aoz tilted his head and looked at Jannia.

"Enough with the nonsense!" Jannia glanced at him sideways. "I just don't want another Sword Holder to die."

After saying that, she paused, looked at the ferocious machine dragon, and said seriously, "Li Aoz, you absolutely cannot die! If you dare to die, I will kill you!"

"Okay, okay, no problem, I definitely won't die."

Li Aoz raised his hand and grabbed the sword, while Caramel Snail beside him said in confusion:

"Hey, Li Aoz, what are you doing out here at this hour?"

Are you confused?

"Since the outcome of the battle is already decided, you can simply stay put, focus on healing your injuries, and wait for the councilor to be defeated, or for White Candle Star to evolve its antibody, right?"

"You seem to know quite a bit of information. Did the Fairy of the Lake tell you? But it's a pity, I can't stay idle."

Li Aoz raised his hand and pointed to the legislator in front of him:

"I want the reputation to defeat [Society] and save civilization."

He gripped the Fate Awakening Sword tightly in his hand and said flippantly:

"To fulfill the promise of this sword, uphold the principles, solidify trust, and establish my own people, I must also do so."

"I want this and that, I want all the benefits."

"I am so beautiful, so powerful, the whole world loves me, and the world should naturally revolve around me! No, this world is mine! No one can take it away."

Under the watchful eye of Caramel Snail, Li Aoz raised his sword and said frankly, "Lord Lioz is quite greedy, you know!"

"Leo-Z"

The mecha dragon rapidly transformed, reverting to the form of the Magnetic Machine God Ambra, and instantly blasted towards Lioz: "You're dead! I'll banish you to the void, never to be reborn! And you, you Newborn, I'll tear you to pieces, trample your soul, and make you kneel down and apologize!"

"A Niu," Li Aoz said calmly, "Can you keep up with me?"

"--oh oh!"

Caramel Snail straightened up, turned around, drew his Tachi, and fiercely said to Ambra:

"Who apologized? What did I do wrong?!"
