Seeing that the metal fortress did not react, Leo pushed open the door to the side room and carefully examined it as if he were back in his own home.
The large pile of metal blocks were likely raw materials that had not yet been used.
Leo picked up a piece and tapped it, producing a clear metallic sound. "It was forged no more than ten years ago and hasn't been corroded by energy yet; it's just a very ordinary alloy."
Finding nothing of interest in the first room, Leo headed towards the second room.
Upon opening the door, one sees a metal chair with a dent engraved on it.
If you put a Cyborg here, it would be a perfect fit.
Leo recalled one of the Cyborg he had just killed; his physique was probably the most suitable for this place.
The seats here were designed in the style of that Cyborg.
Apart from this specially made chair, there was nothing else in the room.
Leo didn't think much of it; perhaps this was just the culture of these Cyborg, where the chair had to be designed to fit their body structure.
Leo lifted his foot to walk towards the third room, but as soon as he was about to move, the metal walls under his feet and around him all began to wriggle.
The surrounding walls converged towards the center, as if to crush the room.
The metal floor beneath his feet turned into a swamp, constantly pulling Leo into it.
The metal seat that Leo had just seen had already sunk halfway down.
Leo tried to lift his feet out, but the swamp-like metal floor still had the strength of metal.
In other words, Leo's foot was completely embedded in the metal, and to pull his foot out, he would need a force strong enough to shatter the metal.
"It alters the properties of the metal to some extent; this ability to activate metals is indeed very interesting."
Looking at the metal castle around him, which had become soft but still retained its metallic strength, Leo showed no concern about being sealed off by the metal. Instead, he continued to test the metal.
When Leo's feet were completely submerged in the metal floor and the surrounding metal walls were close to Leo body, the entire fortress began to shake violently, like a drunken, pregnant woman trying to stand up.
Leo released his mental energy, sensing the entire metal fortress, and a knowing look appeared on his face.
"I knew these Cyborg had the ability to activate metal, so why were their attack powers so weak? Turns out they were saving a big move, but the preparations took a bit too long."
"What ultimate move?"
Yaoyao asked Leo in confusion. He hadn't sensed any special move. He was just looking at these flowing metal objects that looked like chocolate. If he didn't know that eating these things would upset his stomach, he would have started eating them long ago.
Want to see it?
"I want to." Yaoyao nodded.
"Then I'll take you to see it."
Ignoring the metal swamp that reached up to his calves, Leo's figure vanished instantly.
The Shadow Walking ability, granted by his Shadow Talent, is unaffected by ordinary constraints, making it impossible for such a metal trap to control Leo's movements.
Where Leo disappeared, the flowing metal quickly filled the gaps in the room, as if there were no room at all, but rather a solid metal wall.
Leo emerged from the shadows and stepped outside the metal fortress.
The metal fortress no longer resembled a mountain; instead, all the metal on it was constantly flowing.
The flowing metal enveloped the cannon muzzles, and the multi-layered mountain structure had transformed into a sphere.
As Leo watched the changes unfold without intervening, the metal sphere, with a diameter exceeding forty meters, slowly extended its arms, two legs, and a head emerged from the top.
The flowing metal slowly receded, revealing a pure metallic face.
"Wow, a Transformer? It can actually melt an entire metal fortress back into a robot. What a spectacular ability!"
Yaoyao clapped her hands excitedly as she watched the metal giant transform from a metal fortress. She became even more excited after two long swords emerged from the giant's hands, which were over seventy meters tall.
They immediately took out the crystal ball and started filming. This transformation was so interesting, they had to record it so they could show it to Alice when they got back.
If it weren't for the lack of money on hand, Yaoyao would have definitely given him a few tips.
"Originally just a level one or two Cyborg, after merging with the entire metal fortress, he transformed into a level three powerhouse."
Leo clicked his tongue in amazement at the seventy-meter-tall metal giant, which, having merged with the entire metal fortress, exuded a level three aura.
No wonder these Cyborg are so keen on building metal fortresses; there's another reason behind it.
It can directly increase your strength by one level!
"Sir, should we destroy him before he finishes transforming?"
Benji had been waiting outside for Leo to come out of the metal fortress, but before Leo could even emerge, the metal fortress had changed its appearance.
Now it has transformed into a 70-meter-tall metal giant!
"No need. We haven't gathered any information about the ability of Cyborg to fuse with metal fortresses yet, so this is a good opportunity for us to earn some small battle merits."
Leo connected the video Yaoyao filmed to the information exchange platform, allowing the wizards in the command center to see the Cyborg's abilities directly.
Leo also left a comment below. "Ordinary level one and Cyborg can increase their strength to level three after fusing with a metal fortress. The two World Lord that the Beast Blood Boiling Stigmata Wizard is chasing should have the same ability. Please remind the Beast Blood Boiling Stigmata Wizard to be careful."
"Next, I will test his strength and find his weaknesses."
Immediately, a commanding wizard contacted Leo on the information exchange platform, saying, "Thanks to Master Leo's contribution, we have already notified the Beast Blood Boiling Stigmata Wizard."
"No other wizards have provided such information on transformations yet; this is the first time Master Leo has done so."
Leo smiled. If it weren't the first one, he wouldn't have waited so long, giving him enough time to transform.
"To fight a metal giant with level three strength, I wonder if the master would need the assistance of level three combatants?"
"Unnecessary."
Leo looked at the metal giant whose body surface had stopped flowing and revealed a contemptuous smile.
Even if a creature possesses level three abilities, it would be impossible to fully utilize the strength of a native being that doesn't know how to maximize its capabilities.
Just by watching the slow transformation process, you can tell that the Cyborg that was internally fused is not familiar with this ability of its own.
After Leo finished communicating with the wizards in the command center on the information platform, the metal giant also adapted to his transformation and began to move his limbs freely.
"Boom"
Upon seeing Leo ahead, the metal giant instantly slashed horizontally with his sword, which was over fifty meters long. The powerful force tore a crack in the ground that was over two hundred meters long.
However, not a hair on Leo's head was harmed.
Leo's body had somehow floated in front of the metal giant, curiously examining this colossal life form made entirely of metal.
He kept tapping the Godslaying Staff in his hand, as if testing its quality.
Just as Leo floated to his chest level, a cannon barrel extended from in front of Leo and fired a shot straight at Leo face.
This time, Leo didn't use the Shadow Walking; instead, he reached out and grabbed the incoming shell, blocking it directly.
The powerful impact sent Leo flying dozens of meters.
Unable to adjust to the impact, Leo's body tumbled through the air. When Leo finally managed to stop, he saw hundreds of cannons erupt from the seventy-meter-tall metal giant opposite him, aimed directly at his position.
"Watch out for artillery!"
Yaoyao clung tightly to the crystal ball recording the video with her two little paws, shouting incessantly.
"Boom"
The powerful recoil of hundreds of cannons caused even the 70-meter-tall metal giant to take two steps back, leaving huge footprints several meters deep in the ground.
"Snort"
Leo let out a cold snort, and his figure vanished from the spot, seemingly traversing space as he reappeared before the giant metal giant.
This time, Leo didn't appear at the chest, but at the arm joint. Behind the thick metal layer, Leo seemed to see a Cyborg controlling the arm's movements.
"Boom"
A sword slash came at Leo's body, forcing Leo to leave his arm joint.
The sword strike missed Leo, Leo's figure reappeared at his leg joint, where he could also sense a Cyborg inside.
" Thunderclap "
A bolt of lightning shot out from the Godslaying Staff, as Leo attempted to blast open the metal giant's leg joints using the same method as before.
As a result, the lightning attack, exceeding ten thousand points, struck the metal joints, but the lightning was completely deflected. By the time Leo finished casting his spell...
All that could be seen on the metal joint was a half-meter-deep crater, a far cry from the one-shot kill achieved inside the fortress earlier.
The metal giant's defenses surpass those of the metal fortress!
Before Leo could continue his attack, the metal beside him flowed like water, filling the half-meter-deep molten metal crater.
The metal giant raised its massive foot and kicked fiercely at Leo. The howling wind ripped away a layer of the ground, and the violent force created a deafening roar that echoed throughout the sky.
Leo retreated to avoid the attack.
He said to the crystal ball in Yaoyao's hand:
"This level-three metal giant is not controlled by a Cyborg, but rather by multiple Cyborg collectively controlling it."
"At each of their joints, there is a Cyborg; this is their weakness."
"Of course, the best way to defeat them is before they transform, or when they've just transformed and aren't used to it yet."
"In just five breaths, their attack speed has more than doubled compared to the beginning."
"There are five Cyborg controlling them. Judging from their preparation time, this must be their first time using this ability. It's just that their teamwork is improving a bit too fast."
"You've all seen his defensive capabilities; his defense is terrifying, surpassing even most Level Three Body-Refining Great Wizard, and he can even regenerate on his own."
"The furnace is located at the chest area, responsible for providing energy. However, the chest area has higher defense, and I can't penetrate it with my current attack power."
