Chapter 291 Senior, yours is so useful!

[Name: Meibis Cursed Silver (Curse, Flesh, Metal)]

[Appearance: Bright silver special metal...]

[Abilities: Curse Amplification, Flesh and Blood Assimilation, Metal Body]

[Price: The user's five senses will be permanently halved, and the soul will be irreversibly damaged (with the holder's permission, no price is required)]

[Archive: The Cursed Silver City of Meibis has a huge reserve of silver mines. It was once one of the most important mining cities in the kingdom. Since its initial construction more than 300 years ago, it has paid a very generous amount of taxes and minerals to the kingdom every year.

Until eleven years ago, the secret society "Earth Spirits" attacked the city of Maybis, causing the 3,615 residents in the central area of ​​Maybis to be corroded by the silver rain falling from the sky and turned into immovable metal statues. Only a young man named Pioni Alphach managed to escape and joined the Virgin Branch of the Cleanup Bureau the following year...

Later, during a surprise attack on the boarding tower, Pioni Alphah learned that Leon Ryan, a Level 3 incident handler at the Virgin Branch, was in a life-and-death crisis. He was unable to help, so he took the initiative to give up the ownership of part of the cursed silver and temporarily transferred it to Leon Ryan, hoping to help him evacuate safely...】

[Evaluation: A very powerful anomaly, but this ball of cursed silver does not completely belong to you. The most critical part of it still belongs to its previous owner. Please don’t forget to help him take this part back.]

[Infection value: 19.9 (5.4)]

[Your Infiltration Value Increased]

……

"Wow!"

As if sensing Leon's breath, the shiny silver butt shook slightly twice, then changed from solid to liquid, and collapsed instantly with a splash, leaving only...

╰ひ╯

Got it. Thank you for your help. I will give you the most important part.

Seeing this scene, the corners of Leon's mouth twitched slightly. Then he first ordered Youha to put away Senior Pioni's reason, and then tentatively extended his will towards the pool of mercury-like liquid metal on the ground.

"Buzz!"

With a slight sound like the trembling blade, driven by Leon's will, the mercury-like liquid metal on the ground twisted and deformed, and instantly turned into a thin and slender silver sword, which was swung down towards the cracked thermos next to it.

"Keng!"

A sharp and crisp sound of metal clashing was heard, and the iron thermos borrowed by the red-haired director was instantly cut open like tender tofu, and cracked into two halves with a snap.

And it wasn't just the thermos, even the ground underneath the thermos couldn't withstand the blow, and was cut into a long and narrow groove more than half a meter deep.

It's so sharp?!
Looking at the damage caused by the Cursed Silver Sword, Leon couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.

As expected of an abnormal object with an infection value of nearly 20 points, it can cause such great damage with just a casual attack. If I spend a little more "effort", I'm afraid I can even cut through a pneumatic shield that is less than centimeters thick.

Although Senior Pioni's butt is not as omnipotent as his own Holy Spirit Pendant, its speed and concealment are not very good, and its "range" is only about two or three meters. If it is farther, it will lose control.

But if we only talk about destructive power, the slashing power of the weapon made of cursed silver is more than one level higher than that of the Holy Spirit Pendant which can only penetrate steel plates a few centimeters thick.

As for the defensive capabilities...

After trying to split the cursed silver ball into two and making a series of "self-contradictory" attempts, Leon, who had an idea of ​​the protective ability of the cursed silver, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw the hardened cursed silver shield easily blocking the attack.

It’s also very strong!

It seems that Senior Pioni was betting that I would come after him, so he temporarily transferred the control of this part of the cursed silver to me, hoping that I could help me.

And several of his anomalies were sealed one after another. Although the [War Diagonal] had not completely failed and he could rely on Youha's electrotherapy to defeat the enemy, he was lacking in means of self-defense and attack. This help came just in time!

After sincerely thanking Senior Pioni for his help, the overjoyed Leon quickly controlled the Cursed Silver Sword to float up, wanting to try to "fly the sword" and leave in time before the other guards arrived.

But unfortunately, Mr. Pioni’s butt doesn’t seem to support such an operation.

The moment Leon's feet left the ground, the cursed silver ball, which was able to move freely in the air and even turn into a big hand to grab objects, seemed to have lost all vitality and turned into liquid and fell down again.

Is this... is it that Curse Silver, as a mineral, derives its power from the earth? Or is it because Senior Pioni himself is afraid of heights?

After two unsuccessful attempts, Leon had to give up the idea of ​​flying away directly. Instead, he controlled the deployment of the cursed silver with his mind, just like he usually controlled the Holy Spirit Pendant, and laid a barrier around himself. Then he began to run wildly in the direction away from the boarding tower.

We have to speed up.

After rushing out of the encirclement under the tower, he was first ambushed by the snake spirit of the Chengjin Sect, and then tested the effect of Senior Pioni's butt, which also took some time. If he didn't retreat quickly, he would be in trouble if he was blocked by the guards who arrived later!

……

"A suspicious target has been spotted! Quick! Blow the whistle!"

After vaguely seeing a ball of silver light speeding across the plain, the soldiers on the lookout tower couldn't help but tense up. They first blew the alarm horn, and then immediately waved the flag towards the distance.

At seven o'clock, there is a target, suspected to have special weapons?
Squinting his eyes and looking at the observation tower, after interpreting the content of the flag signal, a commander who was leading a team of more than 20 power armors and heading to the boarding tower at full speed, first controlled the arm of his power armor and pointed at the power armor of a team member behind him, then pointed to the nine o'clock direction, made a grabbing gesture, and signaled him to confirm the target.

Amid the dull warning signal, the team member's power armor gave a gesture of understanding, then immediately slowed down and left the team, then changed direction and chased after the target location.

Hope everything goes well this time...

Without paying much attention to this little episode, the commander of the power armor team sighed as he looked at the airship airbag that was wrapped around the top of the boarding tower and still hadn't been completely burned out. He then adjusted the pressure gauge of the power armor and increased the already fast speed a little bit.

Although he was not a guard directly guarding the boarding tower, he was only sent by the military to take turns on emergency duty. His duty was only to guard the boarding tower when a large number of hostile targets appeared.

But this time such a big commotion occurred, even the airship of the Korok Kingdom was burned. Even if I only have the responsibility of assisting in the defense, I will probably suffer the consequences as well.

Those damn attackers are really... They didn't come earlier or later, but chose to cause trouble right when I was called in to assist in the defense!
Now he just hoped that he could arrive in time, intercept the criminals who attacked the boarding tower, or even kill them directly, so as to reduce some of the guilt on his body.

Otherwise, even if I am not the main person in charge, I only need to bear some joint responsibilities, and I am afraid that I will not be promoted in the short term. I will have to stay in my current position for at least another three to five to seven years...

"Beep...beep!" Just as the commander of the power armor team was hurrying on his way and thinking about random things in his mind, the dull warning signal sounded again, and it was much more urgent than before.

Hearing the horn, he opened the telescope in surprise and looked in the direction of the observation tower. The flag on the observation tower had changed color from beige to dark orange, which indicated a higher alert level.

At nine o'clock, it was still the previous target. The people I sent were defeated?
After estimating the time when the team members would leave, the commander of the power armor team suddenly looked serious.

According to the flag signals given by the lookout, the suspicious target was not wearing power armor, but just a person running on foot carrying unknown weapons.

And the team member he sent, driving a four-meter-tall power armor, was defeated in such a short time? What on earth did that person bring?
"You go!"

Slightly slowing down, he gestured to the back to open the window, and the commander of the power armor team also opened the air window of the outer armor, and shouted directly to the power armor of the adjutant behind him:

"There is a dangerous target at nine o'clock. Take two people over there and see what's going on!"

"understood."

The adjutant nodded upon hearing this, and then selected two people from the power armor team. Three tall power armors slowed down and left the team one after another, rushing towards the nine o'clock direction.

Theoretically speaking, a team consisting of three power armors is enough to easily take down a firing point manned by hundreds of soldiers. It is really an overreaction to capture a walking target carrying unknown weapons.

But the team members sent out last time fell down too quickly, and the commander of the power armor team was unsure of the situation, so he chose to play it safe. Not only did he assign an excessive number of people to search for the target, he even ordered the entire team to slow down and be ready to turn around and provide support at any time.

Although the waiting time for feedback this time was much longer than last time, it didn't take long before a more urgent warning signal suddenly sounded, and the flag on the observation tower changed color again.

A red flag representing the second highest alert, second only to the black flag?
The commander's heart skipped a beat when he saw the color of the flag. He then put his eyes close to the telescope and tried hard to identify the flag signal from the lookout tower.

At 11 o'clock, same target, all defeated?!

"Look back!"

The commander, noticing something was wrong, opened the air window and shouted to the power armor team behind him:

"The ten power armors in the rear team continue to move forward, and the rest of the troops move their pressure gauges to the yellow zone! At 11 o'clock, return for support at full speed!"

……

Sure enough, running on two legs is still too slow.

In his soul's vision, Lyon saw several souls rushing towards him at a speed of sixty to seventy kilometers per hour. He couldn't help but frowned, then controlled the cursed silver to form a crowbar, stuck it on the secret door behind the power armor and pushed it hard.

"Squeak!"

Relying on the tremendous power brought by the 5 points of immersion value and the power of the cursed silver crowbar, the solid secret door, which was as thick as a pneumatic shield, made a wailing sound of metal deformation, and then reluctantly popped open, revealing the complex gear set inside, and the huge energy storage block wrapped in a purple-red copper shell stuck in the center of the gear set.

It’s ok, there’s quite a lot left.

After checking the amount of dark purple liquid in the energy storage block through the translucent resin scale, Leon nodded with satisfaction. He then used the cursed silver crowbar to pry open the copper wire and deformed gears, grabbed the tail of the energy storage block that was held up by a thick retaining spring, and pried it up with a creaking sound.

"You are dead!"

After spitting out the dust in his mouth, he looked at the lunatic who was lifting the energy storage block of the power armor. The adjutant who was dragged out of the cockpit and thrown to the ground gritted his teeth, raised his dazzling golden hair and scolded:
"If you are not the mastermind, attacking the boarding tower may not be a capital crime, but destroying the military's power armor and stealing the power armor's energy storage blocks... each of these two is a capital crime!"

"squeak"

"Stop it, you bastard! Do you know what you are doing? This batch of power armor is the private property of our Ryan family!"

"Creaky"

"Stop prying! The new Duke of our Ryan family is about to marry into the royal family and take over the House of Lords again! Even if you can escape today, you will be wanted by the entire kingdom!"

"Crunch, crunch, crunch"

"Are you fucking listening to me?"

Listening, of course I am listening.

After glancing back at the little golden-haired boy, Leon, who had already pried around the retaining spring, gave him an ambiguous smile, then stepped on the cursed silver crowbar and snapped off the energy storage block of the power armor.

I remember that the omnic "Atiphi 128" in the airship said that as long as the energy storage block of the power armor is connected to her, she can be reactivated. But this thing is not easy to make, so you should prepare a few more when you have the chance.

"That's our Ryan family's stuff! Damn it! Put it down!"

Seeing Leon pick up the energy storage block worth more than 10,000 gold wheels and throw it to the ground with a clang, piling it together with the other three energy storage blocks, the adjutant, who was so distressed that his intestines were tied up, couldn't help but curse:
"You're done! Our Ryan family will never let you go. From now on, your wanted poster will be posted on every bulletin board in the kingdom!"

Ah, yes, yes!

After asking Youha to take away the piled-up energy storage blocks, Lyon jumped off the lying power armor under the angry stares of several little golden retrievers. Just as he was about to evacuate, a rhythmic roar sounded from a distance.

Lyon squinted his eyes and found that twelve power armors more than four meters high had appeared from a distance and were rushing towards him in billowing smoke and dust. There was no doubt that their target was him.

It arrived really fast...

Looking at the huge mechanical beasts running towards him and listening to the roar of the steam furnace getting closer and closer, Leon couldn't help but sigh. Just as he turned around and prepared to continue running, he heard the shouting of the little golden retriever behind him again.

"I told you, you're dead!"

Staring fiercely at Leon in front of him, the adjutant from the Ryan family shook his golden hair and said with a smug look on his face:

"You almost got killed after taking down three of us. With so many coming at once, you're definitely doomed! And the captain is different from us. He bought his power armor at a high price from the Korok Kingdom... What do you want to do?!"

"You're right. I really can't handle so many power armors. Those thermal weapons alone are enough to take my toll."

After giving a nonsensical answer, Leon took out a rope and tied the panicked golden-haired adjutant and himself back to back. Then he carried him on his back and ran away, while calmly answering:
"In order to avoid being killed directly by so many artillery shells, I have to trouble you to help me block them... Oh, by the way, I can assure you that the new Duke of your Ryan family will thank you from the bottom of his heart!"
