Skill Extraction: Exploring Dungeons

Chapter 978 - 848: Fully Automated Assault

Kane was perfectly able to understand the attacker’s words.

The raider was not surprised, but he did not intend to pay any attention to Kane at all.

He merely stood cautiously not far from Kane.

Meanwhile, he was looking for an opportunity to see if there were any flaws that would allow him to launch a fatal attack.

The main worry was that Kane might be bluffing, after all, Kane had shown impressive power but had not launched a counterattack.

On the other hand, he was pondering his escape route, so that he could slip away if he really couldn’t win.

Kane still stood where he was, showing no intention of advancing.

Seeing that the enemy was silent, Kane calmly continued, "What’s your name? If you don’t mind, how about we get to know each other?

Even though you tried to ambush me and take my life, I’m a magnanimous person with a pure heart who doesn’t love creating slaughter, so I won’t hold a grudge for such things."

Kane’s voice was unhurried, as if he really intended to become friends with the enemy in front of him.

He made no dangerous movements at all and maintained a safe distance from the enemy, as if ensuring he wasn’t deceiving.

Just like that, Kane smiled and stared at the attacker ahead.

"Ray."

The enemy suddenly spoke a single word, and although it might be hard to understand what he was saying, the enemy clearly had some expertise as well, it was also the Voice of the Soul.

"Ray? Oh, is that your name? It’s indeed a nice name and suits your appearance well."

Kane absently nodded his head, smiling and nodding in agreement.

As for whether the name was true or false, he didn’t care at all.

But the enemy dared to say it, which meant it must be a fake name, otherwise many curses could directly take effect on the enemy through knowing his name.

And this attacker was already at the level of three colors, he clearly wouldn’t be so foolish.

But the reason Kane would chat with him was mainly because he was a bit bored.

After all, he always acted with his teammates before, he had never flown solo like now for such a long time without any existence to communicate with.

Besides Yoyo.

This led to him becoming a bit talkative.

Meanwhile, he was biding his time; after all, if the enemy wanted to have a standoff with him, why not?

For a mechanician, the more thoroughly prepared, the easier the battle becomes.

Kane pointed to the third eye on his forehead.

"When you saw this eye just now, you seemed quite surprised, do you know its owner?"

Without waiting for an answer, Kane calmly continued, "I encountered someone before, if he could be considered a person, he had a skinless flesh appearance that was somewhat unpleasant to look at."

"You know, since I’m human." When saying this, Kane winked at him, as if joking.

Like old friends chatting, he continued, "He, like you, wanted to ambush me out of nowhere, wanting to take my life. But I, as I just said... am magnanimous.

Even if he wanted to take my life, I still treated him as a friend."

Kane began to ramble like an old man.

"After all, in this damned place, even with bad luck, you might not meet someone you can communicate with for years."

"Faced with my sincerity, though the person looked a bit strange, he was still willing to make friends with me, he said he would give me his most beloved eye, that’s this one."

As he spoke, Kane pointed to the eye above.

"Not only that, he also wanted to apologize for previously trying to ambush me and take my life. This is his apology gift, do you recognize it?"

As he spoke, a colorful Magic Stone appeared in Kane’s hand, which he waved at the attacker ahead.

Then, he grasped the colorful Magic Stone in his hand, turned around, and exposed his back.

The enemy moved instantly, reappearing behind Kane, this time wielding a dagger and slicing directly toward Kane’s neck.

Moreover, more than a dozen blue-violet cones appeared on his side, upon closer inspection, they were electric accumulations.

This time, he swore to finish off Kane.

Zap! Crackle! Crackle!

A translucent blue wall-like light screen appeared from behind Kane, blocking out all the attacks.

These light screens were entirely made of Automatic Combination Modules shaped like hexagons, forming a giant wall whose energy pathways were still clearly visible inside.

Blue Universal Energy flowed within.

The enemy’s dagger attack was extremely powerful, causing the attacked hexagon to sway slightly.

However, the force of the attack was dispersed around because the energy pathways distributed it evenly, rendering the attack useless.

This included the dozen or so cone-shaped lightning bolts stabbing at him.

"That attack was pretty fierce." Kane smiled and turned around to stare at him.

His praise was sincere this time, as he knew how strong the defense power of the large wall made up of hexagons in front of him was.

The fact that the enemy’s attack caused some fluctuation showed the attack’s intensity was imaginable.

Then, Kane placed the Magic Stone into his Space Equipment.

As if just remembering something, he said, "Oh, I forgot to tell you, the stone he gave me was made out of his life."

The raider looked at Kane’s smile, didn’t say a word, and appeared a hundred meters away, then began fleeing without hesitation.

The first raid failed, and the subsequent two raids were completely blocked.

Letting him know clearly.

This enemy was completely beyond his capabilities, clearly not bluffing.

Since there was no hope of killing the enemy, as an assassin, he had to turn away without hesitation.

He flickered again, trying to rupture the space and move far away from Kane.

Watching the enemy’s movements and back, Kane smiled and shouted loudly:

"After staying here for so long and listening to me talk so much, you still want to leave? Isn’t that a bit too dismissive of me?"

"Besides, others have offered their lives as compensation. With him setting an example, shouldn’t you do the same?"

Suddenly, layer upon layer of light screens appeared around.

A translucent dome composed of countless hexagons enveloped the surroundings completely.

The idea of the enemy breaking the space to escape became utterly impossible as the space fractures closed, ejecting him out.

Along with him came a white wolf with a watercolor-like appearance, its hindquarters dragging like mist.

Ejected out, it showed a bewildered expression, staring at Kane.

Seeing the wise look in the white wolf’s eyes, Kane suddenly went silent.

"Ah, sorry, didn’t notice you."

The Cloud Wolf stared at Kane with intelligent eyes, then shook its paw.

With the demeanor of a big brother, it seemed to express that Kane need not worry.

Quietly, it moved behind Kane and crouched down.

It had no intention of participating in the battle or helping Kane.

The original tense battle atmosphere in the air momentarily froze.

"Ahem."

Kane cleared his throat, adjusting his stance again.

Watching the assailant who was ejected out and reestablishing a cautious posture.

"I’m waiting for you to die, what are you waiting for?"

Kane said with a smile as light screens appeared again in the air, this time composed of triangular modules.

They transformed into a gigantic pyramid-like triangular structure.

The light screens flickered, and one after another such structures appeared around.

The apex of these pyramidal objects, less than half a meter, targeted the assailant from various angles.

The Universal Energy could be seen gathering within.

Subsequently, this Universal Energy turned fiery red, resembling a ball of condensed magma.

The color turned the entire pyramidal translucent object to a glowing orange-red.

Feeling instant danger, the raider quickly somersaulted back like a gymnast.

Beam after beam of light shot out from the pyramid’s top.

Some hit the ground, burning a large hole directly into it.

Others struck the surrounding shield but caused no harm, absorbed and converted back into energy.

Just like before, as if the lightning hitting these shields.

The pyramid-shaped constructs composed of these combination modules showed no damage or cracks from firing these energy beams.

This indicated they were sturdy enough to withstand the regulations brought by this energy.

Thus, Kane no longer needed to recondense every time after destroying one or two structures due to structural damage, saving Magic Power and time.

This greatly relieved Kane’s burden.

These things didn’t even require him to consciously control them.

The soul AI created by combinations reacted automatically based on pre-set emotions and the current situation.

The air began to fill densely with triangular blocks assembled into floating pyramids.

As the floating pyramids increased, beams began to shoot rapidly and densely.

Even the raider, no matter how agile and reactive, gradually found it hard to cope.

As time passed, these pyramid attacks became increasingly tricky.

Lightning flashed in his hand, and purple conical plasma forms gathered around and began to collide with these beams.

This greatly reduced the pressure on him to dodge.

From time to time, the raider appeared next to a floating pyramid, striking it down forcefully.

The floating pyramids composed of triangles seemed not as sturdy as the previous hexagons.

Attacked with great effort, they were destroyed by the enemy.

To this, Kane was not surprised.

One cannot have it both ways; some compromises must be understood.

Not self-destructing due to energy firing already satisfied Kane greatly.

Destruction by attack was within reason.

And if needing defense, naturally, there would be hexagonal combinations.

No need for him to worry.
