Combination

Battle data regarding the Super Crystal Dragon continued to be transmitted back, along with news of the complete failure of the Pomegranate Fortress defense battle.

The dwarves, when faced with giant creatures that had brought them great calamity, would meticulously record their weaknesses and habits in the "Book of Hatred," passed down through generations, so that they would have a better chance of winning if they encountered them again in the future.

But at this moment, despair welled up in Star Pickaxe's heart—could an enemy like the Super Crystal Dragon, even if recorded in the "Book of Hatred," truly be defeated?

A heavy, bitter sigh escaped his throat.

Two devastating encounters, with countless dwarven warriors sacrificing their lives, ultimately yielded fragments of information about this monstrous beast. The battlefield that followed was beyond the dwarves' capabilities. No amount of sacrifice could pry open any more valuable weaknesses in this mountain-like behemoth.

Star Pickaxe suddenly stood up. "Let's go! To Azure Stone!" He led his entourage of officials and set off immediately.

It was nearly dawn, and the eastern sky was beginning to lighten, the faint glow of Dawn gently eroding the deep darkness of night.

When Star Pickaxe and his team arrived over the Celestite Hydropower Station, it was already dawn. They had briefly stopped here the day before and still remembered the terrain. Therefore, they noticed that a low "hill" had suddenly appeared on the vast riverbank beside the dam.

As their altitude decreased, all the dwarves involuntarily gasped! What was that hill? It was clearly a menacing, six-legged spider-like skeletal structure over a hundred meters long!

It was moving across the riverbank, its bony legs resembling towering temples! With each heavy bony foot that lifted and fell, pebbles were flung high into the air like fountains, leaving behind shockingly deep craters!

This giant spider, constructed from the bones of a dragon, sometimes crawls forward a few steps, then suddenly retreats; at other times it moves sideways like a crab, swaying left and right, as if performing a bizarre yet magnificent dance.

The group of dwarves hovered in mid-air, dumbfounded.

Suppressing his shock, Star Pickaxe slowly landed near the command area atop the hill, where he immediately spotted a familiar figure —Younier. She was holding a tablet, wearing a communication headset, and standing with her arms crossed, occasionally glancing at the colossal machine.

Star Pickaxe strode forward, his voice urgent, "Miss Younier! Is this the... new weapon we're using to fight that 'Calamity Dragon'?"

"That's right, it's called..." Younier paused, unable to recall the long, formal name, and waved his hand decisively, "Type 59 Modified!" "So what is it doing now?" Star Pickaxe stared at the giant spider performing a bizarre "dance," utterly bewildered.

"Part Three, the night driving test," Younier replied. "The driver is a novice, undergoing a handling test."

Inside the cockpit of the "Type 59 Modified," filled with numerous instruments, Su Ming was reviewing the inspection checklist, issuing commands one by one, which were then executed by Miao Xin. This skeletal machine, a combination of modern technology and necromancy, was partly controlled through buttons and handles on the control panel, and partly through a connection with the possessed consciousness, directly controlled by mental power.

Su Ming racked his brains trying to figure out how to do it, but Miao Xin, after a brief period of confusion at first, got the hang of it at an astonishing speed. As she continued to manipulate it, the movements of "Type 59 Modified" became increasingly smooth and fluid.

The basic operation test was quickly passed.

"Hmm, how about another 3 out of 9 combination game?" Su Ming said.

"Let's skip the 'uphill fixed-point start' thing!" Miao Xin said, dissatisfied.

For combat reasons, Su Ming finally decided to modify Miao Xin's vocalizations, which were limited to pig grunts, allowing her to speak human language. However, for obvious reasons, Miao Xin still cannot communicate with the otherworldly beings using the common language.

"So... Thomas Flair 720-degree backflip?" Su Ming joked.

Unexpectedly, upon hearing Miao Xin's words, the soul fire in the Skeleton Pig's eye sockets suddenly lit up, and it actually became interested!

The massive construct began to adjust its center of gravity, its two front legs supporting it as it slowly shifted forward, searching for a point of balance. "Type 59 Modified" tilted, seemingly about to tumble headfirst into the air!

"Hey! Stop!" Su Ming, sitting in the passenger seat, hurriedly said, grabbing the handrail next to him to steady himself.

Miao Xin discovered a crucial problem during the movement and was momentarily stuck. "We have six legs... should the two in the middle be moving like hands or feet?"

"No, I give up, you passed!" Su Ming immediately raised his hands in surrender and put away the checklist filled with assessment items.

After all that tinkering, the system's startup checks, basic maneuvers, and even stress tests under extreme conditions have all passed. "Whew!" Miao Xin's excited shout echoed in the cockpit, "So, can our weapons be mounted now?"

Su Ming immediately connected with Beianqi's communication channel to confirm the status and received a positive reply, "Docking area ready!"

The enormous bone spider strode heavily up the platform where the Vermilion Bow stood. The giant electromagnetic cannon, originally 120 meters long, had its barrel extended after an all-night upgrade, now approaching 150 meters in length, gleaming with a cold, hard metallic light in the Dawn.

Miao Xin maneuvered the giant spider to the electromagnetic cannon base, then turned it around, aligning its back, covered with reinforced support structures, with the Vermilion Bow. With a push from its forelegs, the massive spider slowly rose upright! The hundred-meter-tall construct straightened its body until its back, covered with interfaces and bone spikes, slammed against the Vermilion Bow's cannon with a loud "Clang!!!"!

The heavy support structure at the bottom of the Vermilion Bow instantly emitted a teeth-grinding "creaking" sound.
