Chapter 449 - Mechanical Creature (6)
What made it scarier was that nothing was popping out.
‘Hmm.’
Meanwhile, Han-Yeol didn’t really care because he couldn't sense anything around him.
“There’s nothing around here. No monsters or traps.”
“Yeah, I think so too.”
It wasn’t wrong to say that there was really nothing.
‘What the hell?’
The path continued in a straight line forward, as if directing them to follow it and not go anywhere else.
“T-This place is—?”
What existed at the end of the passage was simple.
The pyramid, which looked massive from the outside, was actually empty on the inside except for a huge object standing in its place.
The problem was that the object wasn’t a good thing for Han-Yeol. To him, the object looked like a giant robot.
Of course, from the perspective of science and technology, it was quite different from what one would consider a robot, but no matter how he thought about it, the object was still a robot.
The problem was that the robot was alive.
Zzzzing!
As soon as Han-Yeol stepped through the passage and into the large space, the black, dead mechanical creature started to light up and respond.
“Wow... I passed through all the undead, and now this?”
Han-Yeol felt like dying because of his rising blood pressure.
“It’s like the saying: one thing after another.”
“Stewart, this isn’t the time for old sayings.”
“...”
Old sayings were surprisingly one of the few things in the human world that Stewart, a demon, found interesting.
The mechanical creature looked out of the ordinary. At first glance, the mechanical creature reminded Han-Yeol of the magnetic robots he’d played with as a kid. Its body was big overall, with very large shoulders, a thin waist, and thick legs.
However, it didn’t walk. Instead, it was floating slightly above the ground.
The reason he called it a mechanical creature was simply because it felt like its upper body, waist, and lower body were all separate living beings, as if they could disassemble and move on their own, unlike a robot. In addition, each part of the body had a unique life force that couldn’t be felt in a simple machine.
‘In other words, this is a bioengineered robot.’
It was clear that if it faced an unfavorable or dangerous situation, its body parts would separate and try to escape.
‘Although I’m not going to let that happen.’
He checked the creature’s blue-and-white colored body with White Dragon’s light, and found them to be similar to the undead clergymen and Evil Ghosts he’d met so far.
‘Was this robot also made for religious purposes?’
If there was one thing different about this guy compared to the rest of them Han-Yeol had passed, this creature didn't look like an undead.
It was a robot, so that was to be expected.
Zingggg! Shhhh!
Just as Han-Yeol’s thoughts reached an end, hot steam erupted from the robot’s back, and it slowly started to move.
[The intruder has entered the temple from the sanctuary. I cannot forgive him. I will crush him before the holiness of the temple.]
[It would please God if we offered this strong intruder as a sacrifice.]
[There haven't been sacrifices that made it this far.]
[Hehehe.]
As far as Han-Yeol could tell, this robot was made from three parts, but in reality, it was four.
Shhhh! Thud!
“It’s coming.”
“I know.”
Gulp.
Han-Yeol felt nervous. The giant mechanical creature before him was a tremendously strong monster, far more powerful than the undead clergymen and Evil Ghosts he’d encountered so far.
“It's probably like the semi-boss, right?”
“I think so...”
Neither of them thought this monster was the boss when there were still a million miles to go.
However, this creature couldn’t be an ordinary monster because it gave off such a strong sense of danger. The mechanical creature was so intimidating that it even made Stewart nervous.
[Since it’s our first time seeing each other, we should probably start by saying hello, right?]
[Sacred Light Steam attack!]
