The shadowy figure tightly bound the Machine God's ankles, starting from the ankles and gradually eroding and climbing up to the heels, the insteps, and finally completely enveloping the entire soles of the feet.
The unidentified black substance on the instep can now be detected in the display.
"This shapeless thing... it really was Lin Feng's doing..."
Clearly, Minister Honest's reunion with the members of ' Night Raid ' indicates that Lin Feng had previously concealed something from him.
The fact that ' Night Raid ' has now joined forces with the ' Jaegers ' forces to launch a general offensive seems far from a coincidence.
The only thing missing was evidence to prove Lin Feng's betrayal, but now, through this shadowy figure, Honest could be certain.
"Hmph... I shouldn't have let him get to that point... But now I don't need Esdeath's power anymore... I might as well use this Machine God to let Esdeath experience my power of intimidation..."
Honest muttered to himself, while the screen in front of the young emperor flashed red lights.
That was the alarm sounding because the Machine God's movement was hindered.
"Minister Honest, what should we do? Just max out the output power! Max it out!"
"Yes! Let's do as Your Majesty says!"
The robot, which had been standing still, suddenly exerted downward force on its legs, which had been stationary.
The powerful kinetic energy generated strong winds around it, and for a moment, even the dark shadows wrapped around its legs could no longer stop the brute force of the impact.
As it stomped into the ground and sank deep inside, the dark figure was also trampled into the yellow sand and dust.
Smoke and dust rose, turning the world a dark yellow hue.
"That's really savage..."
Lin Feng emerged from the light and shadow of the yellow sand and said with a sigh.
"I've always wondered what the ultimate power behind Honest's dominance over this country is; otherwise, how could a powerful figure like Esdeath submit to him?"
"Unexpectedly... it's such a colossal behemoth; no wonder the officials and ministers all give it a wide berth."
" Lin Feng-- "
Lin Feng looked behind him and saw Chelsea's figure.
On this battlefield, Chelsea's overly youthful and vibrant outfit seemed completely out of place against the backdrop.
It is precisely this contrast that highlights what makes this girl special.
Standing behind Chelsea were the wounded members of the ' Night Raid ' and ' Jaegers ' units.
"Is that so... Kurome has also joined the ' Jaegers's ' current faction... That's quite an unexpected surprise."
Lin Feng muttered to himself, then shouted to the astonished crowd—
"Everyone, you've worked so hard to get this far, it's truly been a tough journey."
"Although I didn't get to see everyone fight, we've now forced out the old fox's trump card, which is exactly the result I wanted. I sincerely thank you all; you are my most outstanding comrades."
Upon hearing this, Chelsea coughed twice and jokingly said—
"This isn't some farewell speech~ The real battle is just beginning."
Upon seeing the general's battle robe and that familiar black hair in the scene, Honest let out a disdainful sneer.
" Lin Feng... I might have been a little wary of you under normal circumstances, but now that Machine God in your hands, you'd better go to hell!"
Without a word, Honest grabbed the young emperor's hand, intending to operate the enormous robot himself.
"Minister Honest... what are you doing—"
"Your Majesty, you are still young and lack experience. Let me lead you in eliminating evil!"
Before everyone, the Machine God, for some reason, although it had been incredibly destructive, had always moved extremely slowly and sluggishly.
Now, it seems to be controlled by a different person, and its movements have become much smoother and faster. No one had ever imagined that this metal sheet could twist its body so freely.
With a single leap, the Machine God appeared in front of Lin Feng, its powerful feet stomping into the ground, raising dust and drastically reducing visibility.
The members of ' Night Raid ' were already exerting all their strength just to dodge the Machine God's feet. When the huge black shadow engulfed their bodies, all they felt was despair.
Everyone knew that the Machine God was targeting none other than Lin Feng, who had just arrived on the battlefield.
Without any hesitation, amidst the swirling yellow sand, the Machine God continuously swung its fists, like two diamond-encrusted buildings relentlessly pounding on a boy as thin as raindrops.
"Heh... She's probably turned into mincemeat by now... The so-called power that could rival Esdeath has turned out to be nothing more than this!"
Honest burst into wild laughter, followed by a cacophony of alarm sounds.
"Warning: Partial tissue damage has been observed in the left central nervous system XF-285. Please repair it promptly."
"Warning: A fracture has occurred in the fingers of your right hand due to pressure. Please check; the system is repairing itself."
"What's going on?!"
Honest immediately examined the report transmitted by the system carefully, then looked at the situation outside the display screen, and was speechless with surprise.
Almost every strike of that steel fist landed viciously on Lin Feng's body.
However, Lin Feng remained standing, motionless. Countless streams of blood energy surged from his body without overflowing, seemingly becoming part of his power within his body.
"Is this what maxed-out physical attributes are like...?"
' Alucard's skill points increased from 3 to 2 - his passive Vampire Physique is now maxed out.'
By drawing all the power of the shadows and blood energy back into the body, transforming it into pure physical resilience and toughness, the body's ability to withstand pressure will experience a qualitative leap.
The relentless pounding of Lin Feng's fists left an extremely deep crater in the center of each fist.
Even the electrical organization was hampered by these deep pits, but Lin Feng remained unmoved, steam rising from his head as he was being beaten.
"To be honest, it really hurts a bit... No wonder it's the Machine God's punch..."
"Well, now it's about time for me, isn't it?"
Lin Feng withstood the enemy's flurry of blows from both sides, simply keeping his head down and raising his right arm.
At that moment, a strange, eerie flame seemed to emanate from Lin Feng's body.
This will-o'-the-wisp was not some sudden power, but rather the sum of the souls of every creature Lin Feng had killed since obtaining the ' Power of Alucard '.
After all the crimson spirits continuously merged, they formed a mass of spirits, but its current size was not as vast as Lin Feng had imagined. This was because Lin Feng's skills had a limit on the number of them.

[Skill Points 2 → 1]
[Zero-type River of Death has reached level three, removing the limit on the number of spirits.]
