The theory of instinct was overturned. The metal devils had their own thoughts. Otherwise, they would not have gathered and rushed toward the city.
However, Wei Huo and everyone else were confused. Why were the metal devils courting death?
They could not understand what was going on with the creatures of this alternate world. They were filled with contradictions, and no one could understand their purpose.
However, Wei Huo could only come up with a countermeasure against this situation.
“Destroy them!”
Wei Huo gave an oracle. This was the first battle since he had arrived in the alternate world. Wei Huo had not attacked before. That was the purpose of bringing everyone here. If everything required God to act, there would be no need to bring them here.
If possible, Wei Huo even wanted to see someone become a Mythical creature in this world. That would prove something.
What was a soul? This was a question deeper than the essence of the world. It did not matter what the world was like. If one could explore the secrets of the soul, one might be able to surpass the world, right?
The weapons created by the scientists were put to use. The weapons they had created were huge mechas. These mechas were known as magic mechas by the scientists. There were two suction vents on the chest of each magic mecha. In reality, these were two devices that could absorb energy.
After the energy was absorbed by the two mouths, it would be turned into power for the mecha, allowing the pilot to pilot the mecha and fight. The materials of the mechas had been obtained after dismantling the various facilities in the city.
These facilities were made of special materials and contained all sorts of Divine Artifacts. For example, healing springs could absorb energy and create spring water to heal wounds.
However, the spring water was obviously useless to the metal devils. This meant that this place might not have been the metal devils’ territory a long time ago. They had invaded this place later.
The warriors who had been modified and could stay in this world for a short time all piloted magic mechas. Their commander was a peak Epic expert. Only existences below the Legendary stage could be modified, so he had been very lucky to become the commander for the first battle in the other world.
The commander did not dare be negligent. There were many Legendary creatures and three high and mighty Gods watching this battle. Under the circumstances, if he lost, he could only apologize with his death.
Besides, this was the first battle of the alternate world. How could he lose?
He could not lose!
With this thought in mind, the commander went to the battlefield and started fighting the group of metal devils. This was actually a battle without any suspense. Even if they did not use magic mechas, they could still win because the weakest soldiers were all at the peak of the Rare rank. The captain was at the early stage of the Epic stage, the vanguard was at the middle stage of the Epic stage, the general was at the late stage of the Epic stage, and the commander was at the peak of the Epic stage.
If such a powerful army could not beat a group of metal devils in the era of cold weapons, the commander could really die.
Needless to say, they had prepared advanced weapons. The magic mechas were very powerful. Not only did they have top-notch defensive abilities, but they could also absorb energy bodies and turn them into weapons, such as laser swords and particle guns, or super-strong mobility and strength.
Besides, the enemies they were facing were a group of metal devils who did not have any tactics or combat skills. No matter the enemy they faced, these metal devils only knew how to swarm forward and wave their weapons to attack.
Anyone could easily defeat such an enemy.
However, the key was that the metal devils could be revived!
Even if they were blasted into pieces, even if the flames evaporated, and even if they were stomped into pieces by the magic mechas, they would still be revived. They would turn into silver-white particles and form a new metal devil.
They could not be killed. They were like cockroaches. This was the characteristic of metal devils.
In the black-and-white Titan, three Mythical creatures and seven Temple Knights were watching the battle. Apart from them, the other Legendary creatures were watching the battle via various ways.
The Legendary-level creatures had not been modified by Wei Huo and the others because their bodies had already begun fusing with their minds. If they wanted to be modified, they would have to abandon their bodies. This would definitely cause their strength to decrease greatly and they might even fall to the Epic stage.
Therefore, it was better not to modify them.
They were all watching the battle, but their attitudes were different. The ordinary Legendary creatures were a little nervous, while the seven Temple Knights were expressionless. The three Mythical creatures were indifferent.
It did not matter. Creatures like metal devils could be easily destroyed. The reason they had started this war was to see more.
The expressionless Temple Knights did not think that this battle would be suspenseful. They believed that the metal devils would eventually be defeated. There was no doubt about that, so they were quite calm.
However, the ordinary Legendary creatures were a different matter. The generals, the vanguard, and the captains on the battlefield were all connected to them. If they could perform well on the battlefield, their faces would glow.
After all, this was a mission assigned by God.
This was just like when parents of primary school students got excited and nervous when the country chose the primary school students to participate in an international competition.
This had always been the case. One always hoped that the next generation would do well to boost one’s ego, and the next generation would always complain that their parents weren’t rich enough to make them scions.
That was why they could never reach the peak of the Legendary stage. The nine Temple Knights believed they had to fight for their own reputation. They would not place their hopes on others. That was the reason they could surpass the limits of their bloodline and lock them down. That was why their magnetic energy surpassed the limits of biological creatures and had reached the peak of the Legendary stage.
It seemed like ordinary Legendary creatures could not understand this.
Upon seeing their descendants perform well on the battlefield, the ordinary Legendary creatures started bragging. They compared themselves to each other, but they had not expected a sudden turn of events.
A magic mecha was enveloped by silver-white particles. The particles started invading the magic mecha, and the pilot controlling the magic mecha roared in pain. He shouted, but he could not stop the particles from invading his body.
This was very weird. Suddenly, everyone’s eyes were focused on the magic mecha. Gradually, the pilot’s screams dissipated. His skin became metallic, and he seemed to have turned into a metal person.
This alarmed everyone. Even the three Mythical creatures focused their attention on that.
The first metal man had appeared.
