Fallen City-State

Dago narrowed his eyes at the dense clouds before him. The Eye of Truth wove itself across his brow, and with the aid of his spiritual power, he could determine that this was a kind of "quasi-elemental life-form" naturally formed from vast quantities of metal particles and metal-element energy particles.

Deep within his pupils, the world was stripped of its surface appearance and reduced to its most fundamental data and lines.

It was not merely mist or clouds. It was hundreds of millions of microscopic metal particles moving chaotically under some primitive law.

His spiritual power pierced into the heart of that chaos like a precise probe. Though the feedback frequencies were disordered, they carried an ancient will that sent chills down his spine.

The concentration of free metal-element energy particles in this space was astonishingly high, so it was hardly strange for a metal-element life-form to arise here.

A faint, imperceptible sneer curled Dago's lips. Such a high-density particle environment was a toxic radiation field to ordinary creatures, but to a wizard who possessed the right knowledge, it was a natural amplifier.

Judging from the strength of its earlier attack, this thing was probably around the Mid-Second Circle. It was also extremely aggressive. After Dago repelled it once, it immediately launched a second assault.
