Mage Adam-Chapter 231: Battle (3)

***Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!***

The railgun hit the group of Metal Eaters right on target, causing a big explosion on the defense field. In just two seconds, their force field was completely broken. The remaining bullets went through the field without any trouble and hit their bodies. For a moment, it was raining 'blood,' and the Metal Eaters were badly damaged.

Adam's own power played a small role in this attack. The energy for the attack came almost entirely from the power of the other Titans. The Metal Eaters' physical defense was also quite weak, or else the attack wouldn't have caused so much damage.

Electromagnetic magic was very useful. At a low level, it helped a lot, and at a high level, it could be deadly. In this special world made of metal, it worked even better.

Honestly, Adam didn't expect such a great result. The full support of seven level-three Titans made him almost as strong as he was in the Mage World, but sadly, this boost in power wouldn't last long.

Windflame 222 was shocked. He was so surprised that he couldn't even finish his sentence.

Another Titan said, "Since when are newborns this strong?!"

Adam was also struggling, but he did learn something---despite being made of metal, he could feel tired. His mithril body couldn't keep its shape. After he changed back to his usual form, he said weakly, "Now it's your turn."

Windflame 222 quickly put energy blocks into the power source and said boldly, "Don't worry. After their defensive field is broken, these Metal Eaters are nothing. They're doomed!"

Adam responded with a slight fluctuation of his power. Then he moved to Bluewater 457 and said, "Use me as the generator, my force field is more effective."

Bluewater 457 gave a stiff smile and patted Adam. "Rest easy, you won't miss out on any Honors!"

Out of more than five hundred Metal Eaters, only about a hundred were level-three, and the rest were level-two.

Adam's attack only killed a small part of them. The rest were badly injured and couldn't form a battle line. The few Titans who were very angry took this chance to attack wildly, quickly gaining the upper hand.

Adam didn't join the fight anymore. Instead, he focused on the path the Metal Eaters had flown and their bodies after they died.

On the day he was born, Adam, not knowing the situation, let the leading Metal Eater devour others and then mutate. But this time, Titans like Windflame 222 clearly wouldn't give them that chance. They neatly separated the gathering Metal Eaters and led the level-three leading Metal Eaters to different places.

Adam noticed that the Metal Eaters sometimes dropped waste during flight. This waste wasn't dirty but pure metal blocks, and they looked just as good as the ones refined by the Flames.

Moreover, the Metal Eaters' bodies seemed even more useful than the waste. Their limbs and pieces fell to the ground and would turn into metal in a short time; the metals also had energy vibrations.

Adam didn't understand the principle behind this. This complete change in nature was incredible---Metal Eaters, although strange, were indeed made of flesh and blood, and he wondered why they could turn into metal after death.

No one could answer Adam's question for the time being. Maybe he needed to enter the real Titan society and get in touch with some Intelligents or advanced knowledge to find the answer.

But clearly, this must be the evolutionary direction chosen by the Metal Eaters after they were made as tools and then rebelled against the Titans. They used the Titans' bodies and power source as food and energy, and the Titans got higher-grade metals after killing Metal Eaters.

These two races needed each other as much as they needed to kill each other.

The battle lasted nearly two hours, with the Titans showing highly coordinated teamwork.

The Metal Eaters were gradually slaughtered, and Bluewater 457 even had time to discuss with Adam what this new force field was.

Adam explained it simply, but Bluewater 457 said he couldn't understand. Adam guessed it might be due to different knowledge systems. Titans might need to perform some special operations on the Original Flames to gain abilities.

Maybe they also needed a magnetic body to use this power, but that could lead to their own vulnerability. In the Titania library, Adam hadn't seen any method of smelting magnets, nor had he found natural magnets in the land here.

Bluewater 457 didn't pursue the matter further and curiously controlled the magnetic field output by himself. However, he was obviously not very skilled and often pulled the enemies back or disturbed their energy just as a few Titans were about to kill them. Windflame 222 complained loudly because of that.

Two hours later, Windflame 222 ended the battle by blasting the last level-three Metal Eater with a shot. During this time, Adam barely recovered from his weakened state.

The energy contained in the ordinary energy blocks produced by the conversion bacteria was too low, and Adam really thought about using ether crystals to solve the problem in one step.

The Titans didn't rush to collect the spoils of war.

Excited, they gathered around Adam, showering him with praise while continuously 'attacking' him in a friendly manner. These straightforward and sturdy giants were used to expressing affection and gratitude by slapping and knocking.

"That was amazing! Didn't expect this mission to be so easy!"

"My body isn't even that damaged, no need for maintenance now!" freewebn ovel.c om

"You're truly a natural Intelligent, Windflame 222's judgment was spot on!"

Adam gave up on using energy to repair his body, realizing it was futile. Even a gentle action from these Titans carried the force of tens of tons, which his soft mithril body couldn't withstand. freew ebnov el

They only stopped their enthusiastic patting when Adam's body went out of shape. Then they buzzed off to collect the spoils of war.

Adam twisted his body back into shape and followed, asking Windflame 222, "Are there always this many Metal Eaters in patrol missions?"

Windflame 222 picked up an unknown alloy, and after finding that all his strength couldn't deform it, he happily tossed it to Adam. "Not always this many, hey, take this, it's much stronger than your soft body."

"So, this was a special case?" Although it might sound arrogant, Adam felt that it was unlikely for a patrol of ten leader Titans to defeat over five hundred Metal Eaters without any losses. If it weren't for him, the patrol might have had casualties.

Windflame 222 transformed into a truck shape, extending arms to throw the collected items into the dump. "Yeah, we've encountered more than this before. Maybe the Metal Eaters near Ironburg also suffered a lot in the last invasion. Intelligents are really impressive!"
