Chapter 323: Chapter 317: Artificial Angel

Translator: 549690339 |

“In a somewhat dilapidated, mechanical-looking street, a floating steel city in the sky, so large that it could block the sun, radiated a light that illuminated the entire world like a big sun.

” “Are more humans coming in?” ” A girl, whose delicate appearance seemed as though she shouldn’t exist in the human world, looked up at the strange radiance emanating from the steel city and sighed softly.

If there were outsiders present now, they would immediately see the astonishing mechanical torso and steel armor beneath her angelic face.

Her Arcane Steel arm, adorned with a silver chain, was also equipped with a heavily-armed turret, exuding an air of danger.

As if lost in memories, the Artificial Angel, {Shadow Guard}, stood in place for a while before looking down at the gradually worn and dilapidated ground beneath her feet. Then, the mechanical armor on her back suddenly changed shape, revealing two dark holes.

The next second, fierce flames erupted from the holes behind Shadow Guard and she turned into a streak of light, rushing towards Evernight City in the sky.

“”This is the Origin Emperor’s Relic!””

Gazing at the neat and orderly silver buildings in the distance, as well as the towering hexagonal building at the center, Sylvia Creek’s eyes couldn’t help but brighten.

“”Everyone, be careful. After all, this is inside the relic. There might be dangerous mechanisms lurking along the way,” ” Yolanda York spoke up.

The Guardian of the Origin Emperor’s Relic would only protect the explorers from attacks by other explorers and Beasts, but as for the mechanisms inside the relic, they were of course not included within the Guardian’s protection.

” “The concentration of Arcane Force here is very high, but most of it is machinery-aligned Arcane Force, which is difficult to absorb. Moreover, this relic suppresses all arcane forces other than machinery-aligned ones.” ” Feeling the suppression from all directions and realizing that the flame in his palm had weakened by about half, David Jones turned his head and reminded his teammates.

“”We’d better conserve our own and our pets’ Arcane Force consumption, or it will be difficult to cope with the mechanisms inside the Relic.” ”

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement as their expressions became more serious.

As he walked along the Arcane Steel path, David Jones looked around at the intertwining buildings made of silver houses and towering ancient trees, curiosity in his eyes.

” “Is there no way forward?” ” Frowning, Margaret Yule said, looking at the closed door in front of them.

“”No, this is the first test of the relic,”” Yolanda explained.

According to the information she had gathered, the Origin Emperor’s Dungeon had four levels, and each successful completion of a test would allow the explorers to enter a deeper level.

Only the explorers’ teams that made it into the core area would have the chance to enter the Sky Capital City.

Just then, the closed Arcane Steel door emitted a pale silver light, which enveloped David Jones and his team.

” “Warning! Warning! Only those who have obtained the King’s Order or possess the Imperial Jade Seal shall be allowed to enter. Any unauthorized intruders will be killed without mercy.”””

Upon hearing this mechanical prompt, everyone exchanged confused glances.

While they didn’t know what the King’s Order was, they had heard plenty of rumors about the Imperial Jade Seal, an immensely powerful, Class IX Immortal arcane implement with a notorious reputation throughout history. It was said that the Origin Emperor’s order, given under the Imperial Jade Seal, possessed unparalleled power. Just one order issued by him within the palace could suppress all legendary beasts residing within the Great Wall Fortress despite the millions of miles distance between them.

Such an order for the King’s power could be equated with the Imperial Jade Seal, which was undoubtedly an exceptionally strong treasure.

” “It seems we’ve skipped over the Mecha and Outer Areas and were directly teleported to the Central Area. We are only a step away from the core area of the Origin Emperor’s Relic,” ” Yolanda said, a smile on her face that she couldn’t tell if it was joy or sorrow.

“”Does this mean that I won’t be able to get my King-class mecha?””

Yann York stared at the door in front of him with a subtle expression.

” “Not necessarily. The core area of the Origin Emperor’s Relic is a place where even armies haven’t been able to explore. There might be Overlord-class mechas or battleships inside,”” Yolanda shook her head.

“”The important thing is where we’re supposed to find the King’s Order!”” Cecily Mansfield turned to look at the magnificent, high-tech buildings behind her, “”Is it possible that the King’s Order is hidden within these buildings?”” “”Since we’re looking for something, let’s split into two teams and search here. I’ll team up with Yolanda and Margaret, and Yann, you can join Sylvia, Cecily, and Violet to see if there’s anything worthwhile,” ” David Jones smiled as he proposed when everyone looked at him.

“”During the search, let’s gather and exchange information every half hour. If anyone has any objections, feel free to raise them,” ” David Jones continued.

” “No problem!”” Everyone nodded.

After agreeing, David Jones led Yolanda York and Margaret Yule towards a towering building on their right, its top already collapsed, exposing the interior layout where Arcane Steel crisscrossed each other due to the many battles it had been through.

“”Rainbow, cheer up, and use your Psychic abilities to detect any nearby treasures worth our attention,”” David Jones said, tapping her on the head. “”Yi!”” (. > a> • .) (I’m best at treasure hunting!)

Upon hearing the treasure hunt game, Rainbow’s eyes immediately flashed a dazzling golden light.

“”Is it more reliable to let Daphne do this kind of luck-based thing?””

Looking at Rainbow, who was flying up and down and completely immersed in the game, David Jones’s face stiffened and he directly called out Daphne. “”Meow?””

Stroking the noble-looking yet slightly naive cat in his arms, David Jones decided to let them both join in.

” “Whoever finds the King’s Order first will get two extra hours of full-body massage from me today and tomorrow.” ”

“”Meow!””

“”Yi!””

As the saying goes, ‘With great rewards come great efforts.’

When David Jones made this offer, an intense gaze of rivalry sparked between Rainbow and Daphne.

With a glance, Margaret Yule and Yolanda York curiously looked at the two pets whose spirits had immediately soared and couldn’t help but blink their cute, big eyes.

“”Is a full-body massage reward so appealing to pets? Maybe I should learn it too. This might be the team leader’s secret to training pets!””

“”You two, conserve your Arcane Force and don’t go overboard!””

Seeing the horrid momentum rising from the two pets, David Jones instinctively rubbed his forehead.

However, amidst this overwhelming momentum, a hoarse mechanical sound suddenly came from the silver building beside him.

” “Enemy detected. Activating combat mode!” ”

“”Rumbling!””

With a piercing explosion, a massive mechanical beast plummeted from the smoke-filled window of the tall building, targeting the two pets, who were still releasing their intimidating aura.
