Soul of Burning Steel

What does it feel like to die?

Coordinating terminal No. 7 originally didn't know this feeling, and didn't know the meaning of this feeling.

It is the terminal of the coordination circle of all worlds to perform external tasks, and it is an emotionless puppet. Although it has a soul, it is nothing more than a given foreign object. Logically speaking, it should be an absolutely calm and rational existence. Even death can be accepted without hindrance.

But now, it felt the cold from the depths of its soul.

The feeling of imminent death is like being in a snowy mountain and ice lake, which is as cold as water, soaking the bone marrow, and the ice freezes along the surface of the body, making the whole body and spirit stiff and unable to move - the black-haired human standing on the ground He raised his head and looked at it. Coordination terminal No. 7 looked at those eyes with red light, and felt that the killing intent contained in them seemed to have crushed its soul.

The attack is coming—

This is not based on calculation and speculation, but based on instinct. Although the soldier did nothing, neither his muscles nor his fighting spirit contracted, and there was no tendency to explode, terminal No. 7 still came to such a conclusion .

But it was still too late, the black figure on the ground disappeared from the field of vision just for a moment when the magic circle was observed, leaving only the flying smoke and the cracked earth, time seemed to stand still here, the terminal Number 7 felt that the light wheel in his brain had completely stopped rotating, and his thoughts were frozen like ice.

It tried to evade the coming unknown attack, but failed.

In the next moment, the silver figure could only see a hand wrapped in black and red fluctuations, grabbing towards his head.

A red light suddenly pierced the sky, and all the elves looking in this direction, including Hei, raised their heads in unison, but before they had time to think, a violent explosion occurred.

--boom! ! !

The roar was so violent that the half-dragon shook its head in pain. It felt that its head was creaking, and at the same time, a cloud of mushrooms rose up, and the violent earthquake-like tremor was transmitted to an extremely distant place. Even in the capital of Babel Province, it can be clearly felt.

The elves in the underground shelter anxiously waited for the end of the battle. As civilians without fighting power, they could only believe that their side could win, but suddenly, an earthquake-like tremor came, which immediately made the originally quiet shelter resound. scream.

The violent shock wave was wrapped in a gust of wind, and the uncomfortable smell of sulfur rushed towards the face, and as the smoke and dust cleared, the black-haired warrior held a broken silver light wheel in his hand, frowning and slowly walked out of the burning giant. out of the pit.

"What kind of creature is this? Why is it so hard? I hit it with all my strength and there are still wreckage..."

He muttered to himself, and behind the soldier, a silver-haired girl and a black-haired boy also came out of the pit, they patted the dust off their bodies, and sighed in unison.

"Master said before that you should calm down?"

Rin said in an unreadable voice, his expression was subtle, he shook his head, and his tone was a little illusory: "Maybe... this is probably calm?"

Ying thought seriously for a while, scratched her cheek with her fingers, and said with some hesitation: "Think about it carefully, compared with the previous battles, at least the master remembered to bring us this time?"

"Maybe this is the embodiment of calmness!"

Not paying attention to what his weapon said, Joshua held the fragment of the light wheel in his hand and called out the system decisively.

[Fragments of the Coordination Core]

[The base point of a super-large spell can materialize energy and carry the soul. It originally contained unimaginable magic technology, but now that the external force has been completely broken, its fragments may still contain some secrets? Who knows. 】

【—Don’t mess with these wreckages! 】

Frowning slightly raised, Joshua looked at the light wheel in his hand with a slight change in his eyes: "Interesting."

He gave a brief evaluation, and he seemed really interested: "The creature directly under the Apocalypse Formation on the head? It's still one of the basic points. Indeed, the image of the light wheel is almost the same... but it's not very strong. .”

That silver humanoid creature is quite strong. In terms of soul alone, it has the power of a high-level gold. Counting the core light wheel that can hardly be destroyed by physical attacks, it is very difficult to fight even a strong person in a high-level gold. Easy, if the enemy he is facing is not him, a creature of this level can easily crush an army.

Handing the light wheel to Ying who was at the side, the girl put it away, and Joshua turned to look at where the half-dragon was. A guy running around."

After finishing speaking, he raised his legs and walked in that direction.

And when Hei saw Joshua running towards him, he rushed forward with a face full of emotion, the ground rumbled, and it seemed that it wanted to lower its head to lick the soldier, but fortunately the soldier raised his hand to resist the attack of the huge monster. His lower jaw, otherwise his whole body would have to be soaked in dragon saliva. Joshua's complexion was extremely bad, and he roared angrily, "Sit down! Hei, you're not a dog, why are you licking people?!"

Hearing the master's order, Hei immediately lowered his body pitifully, his golden dragon eyes cautiously looked at the obviously very angry warrior, his thick tail swung behind him, slapped the ground, and at the same time brought up a large cloud of dust and mist, he also let out Heavy vibrations.

"...tsk."

Seeing this scene, Joshua shook his head helplessly. In this way, he was less inclined to teach Hei a lesson—it would be embarrassing to teach such a mount a lesson, and he has not yet fallen to the point where he has to take out his anger on others.

The elves who watched this scene through the observation circle all took a collective breath, their faces were stunned, their mouths opened, as if they had seen some incredible scene.

The dragon of the volcano, the dragon of the volcano, that single-handedly killed dozens of adamantine stone demons, blocked countless armies of stone demons, and may have detonated the powerful existence of Sigma Volcano. Creatures begging for mercy?

The reason why humanoid creatures are used is that no one wants to admit that the monster that bombards thousands of stone demons with the power of one person in an instant is an elf or any ordinary creature in the legend.

But no matter what, many people reacted quickly. After thinking about it carefully, they felt that this was normal—that humanoid creature was indeed much stronger than the Volcanic Dragon. If this is the case, there is nothing surprising.

But no matter what, it was very shocking. The mayor of the capital touched his heart. He was sweating coldly. He felt that the scene he saw just now, the scene of the black warrior sweeping the stone demon, almost made his heart beat. .

——If, if this existence is malicious to us elves——

He didn't even dare to think about this possibility. For this reason, the mayor shuddered. For this reason, he immediately gave an order.

Fortunately, Joshua doesn't pay attention to these issues now, and he doesn't have any thoughts about the elves.

He just frowned, questioning, and admonishing his mount.

"How on earth did you come to this world? Didn't I tell you not to go to the opposite side?"

"Roar!"

"You don't know either? It's a strange thing. Could it be an accident caused by the space-time channel itself? It's just like the last time I was involved in a different world with the old dwarves in the dwarf gathering area..."

Joshua frowned and thought for a while: "Maybe it's caused by the lava from the volcanic eruption? It's also possible. Let's say you're right, then how did you come here to confront these chaotic creatures?"

"Ho Ho!"

"A monster that descended from the sky along with the huge magic circle? Could it be the apocalypse circle... There are also intelligent creatures here?"

"Roar!"

"Elf?"

The inexplicable conversation ended here, and Joshua turned his head to look at the dilapidated but still tall building in the provincial capital of Babel, and muttered to himself, "Last time it was Wingman, this time it's Elf, why are the creatures in the other world all from the Mycroft Continent?"

"Could it be that there is some kind of connection?"

But before he finished thinking, a white light landed on the sides of Ying and Rin.

"...Joshua, why are you so fast?!"

The paladin stepped out of the white light. Because of his occupation and personal characteristics, his flying speed was much slower than the warrior's, and he was a step behind with all his strength. When he walked to Joshua's side, Loranda looked at the The roaring half-dragon glanced at the soldier who was listening to the opponent's roar seriously, his face was full of strangeness: "And when will you be able to talk to the dragon?"

"As long as you put your heart into it, you can do it." Casually explained, Joshua was frowning and thinking about how to meet the local intelligent life next. At the beginning, the only intelligent life left by Carlos was Artificial Intelligence No. 3, and the others They have all died a long time ago, and they have never encountered a living creature other than the Rage God during their adventures. Now, according to what Hei said, there are tens of millions of them. .

"In addition to being a little low in personal strength due to the low level of magic power, it even surpassed the Mycroft Continent." There was a trace of solemnity in the soldier's eyes: "And it's still a magic civilization."

When the abyss invaded in the previous life, the magical energy technology of the Mycroft Continent developed very rapidly, even beyond common sense. Now, it seems that it may not be because of the accumulation of many great mages under the threat of war, but from different worlds. ——Perhaps it is because of the large amount of information obtained in this world.

Discussing the environment of this world with the paladins, Joshua and Lolanda came to the conclusion that this world is almost indistinguishable from the Mycroft Continent, whether it is air, water, or the composition of soil , are almost exactly the same, the world of Carlos is a world of famine on the verge of the end of the world, and the situation there can not be used as a reference at all, but this world makes people want to think about whether the world is naturally connected, and its own environment has a natural environment. consistency.

But before they finished discussing this issue, Hei suddenly roared.

In the distance, there is an armored vehicle holding a white flag, slowly leaving the capital of Babel Province, heading in this direction.
