407 Severely Injured
It was like a meteorite falling.
The attacker called Shadow drank the dragon blood potion and used the Dragon Transformation Scroll to activate his life and will. He burned it into a strike and used himself as a weapon to fight to the death.
The goal was the alchemical weapon that Kang De relied on to defeat the Twilight Expeditionary Force and kill the three dragons.
The dragon girl on the bed instantly woke up.
Even she could not help but shout in her mind.
Such an attack was extremely powerful, a rare magic medicine, an extremely difficult dragon scroll to engrave and make, and an expert who was clearly extremely extraordinary. These three were all extremely rare. If she pinched the power of these three together and erupted with an instant dazzling light, even she had to temporarily dodge.
However, an attack that could not hit the target was useless no matter how powerful it was.
Therefore, the target was not Kang De.
In all the information about Kang De in the countries and organizations of the continent, what was emphasized was this person’s strange and powerful spatial superpower. He could do whatever he wanted. He could not intercept, imprison, or even predict.
It was this invisible and elusive teleportation ability that allowed Kang De’s forbidden curse deterrence to unleash a huge effect that shocked the various countries. Just like how he could only be called a nuclear country after creating mushrooms, he could only be called a nuclear power after creating high speed, long distance, and hidden mushroom throwing ability.
Although this assassin’s attack that burned his life was powerful, even if it bombarded him, Kang De could still calmly escape. It was meaningless to empty it. He had paid a huge price to nurture and subdue the death warriors, as well as magic medicines and scrolls that were difficult to obtain with a large sum of money… No one would do such a costly transaction.
He might as well choose a more confident goal.
For example, the alchemical weapon that had written a thick ink brush in the battle of Red Maple City.
Many thoughts flashed through the Dragon Girl’s mind. She had already straightened up from the bed. According to the logic of who benefited the most and was the most suspicious, if Kang De’s alchemical chariot was shattered by the assassin, the dragon race would definitely take the blame. After all, dragon transformation and dragon blood were too obvious and could not be avoided.
Destroying this alchemical weapon was also the most beneficial to the dragons.
After all, the various countries of the continent were more afraid of forbidden curses than this alchemical weapon. Only Dragon Island was more afraid of this alchemical weapon than of forbidden curses. This was determined by the national situation and nature of the two.
In a flash, she could no longer care less about her extremely shameful clothes. She was about to intercept when the gorilla beside Kang De suddenly turned around. Her killing intent was cold and she did not hide it at all.
The Dragon Girl was first stunned and was about to explain when Kang De had already opened the spatial door and rushed into the white fog world. He had left a spatial anchor in Horus’s body!
He activated the time torrent and cracked the spatial door. Kang De’s figure was like light and did not stop for a moment. The spatial anchor cracked from the white fog world. He wanted to transmigrate into Horus’s body and pull his iron son back to the white fog world!
In the next moment, he returned to the other world from the white fog world, but the surroundings were not the situation in the car. The cold air at night surged into his nose. Kang De discovered that he was in midair. A carriage chair whistled down and smashed into the roof. When he looked up, he saw a dark red shadow wrapped in red dragon flames that had already fallen like a meteor!
Everything happened in an instant. After sensing Kang De disappear, Horus immediately understood his father’s plan. He did not hesitate to throw out the seat that had anchored the spatial coordinates because it was too late!
The thruster reversed and shot out violently, providing reverse thrust. Horus raised his large shield and tried his best to retreat. At the same time, Sword Saint Snowfall stabbed into the sky. Seeing that Kang De had gone and no longer had to guard against the Dragon Girl, the gorilla immediately went all out to help. A moment later, an invisible ripple shot out of Kang De’s room.
In the distance, the experts guarding the Maple Leaf Palace activated the array that had been strengthened by hundreds of years of inheritance. However, lightning flashed and only lasted for an instant. Meteors fell. Only the attack of Sword Saint Snowfall, the gorilla, and the Dragon Girl, who were the closest, could barely touch it. If the three of them worked together, they could have resisted this attack head-on—but it was too late!
Even in Kang De’s accelerated time state, all of this happened in the blink of an eye.
Electricity and low temperature.
There was also a violent physical impact.
In an instant, it shattered Horus’s tower shield and swallowed the quickly retreating Transformers.
He heard a violent explosion. The Autobot who staggered back collapsed into large pieces. Smoke and flames erupted, and electric sparks continuously flashed. His steel body took a few steps back and fell to the ground.
The gorilla and Sword Saint Snowfall had already rushed forward. Sword qi strangled and the staff swept, completely shattering the remaining shadow. The unknown attacker dissipated into the world.
Kang De’s figure moved and he had already rushed to Horus’s side.
His face was ashen, his gaze was as cold as a sword, and his hands were trembling slightly. Clearly, he was already extremely angry. Who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, a change would happen and Horus would be heavily injured?
“How did it go?”
His voice was very calm and concise. He did not curse or blame Horus for throwing the spatial anchor out. This was complete nonsense. He knew his iron son’s decisions and calculations. After doing it, it seemed that if he had teleported to Horus’s body at that time, he might not have had the time to teleport to the white fog world together when the terrifying and powerful bombardment had already faced him.
At this point, it was useless to say anything else.
His iron son spat out black smoke and a few screws were thrown. “Not good.”
Half of its body had been beaten up, and oil pipes, wires, and transmission structures scattered out. From time to time, some electric sparks would erupt. It tried to support itself and sit up, but it failed and spat out another mouthful of black smoke. “F*ck…”
Kang De frowned and reached out to press down on the windshield panel on his iron son’s chest. He focused and sensed.
Horus was produced by him with the power of the Fire Thief. It had fused with the mysterious elements of the white fog world and had a mysterious telepathic connection with him. At this moment, he focused and sensed that the other party’s strength was quickly flowing away… from this damaged steel body.
The gorilla and Sword Saint Snowfall stopped behind. The entire Maple Leaf Palace was alarmed. It was unknown how many people had rushed over, but Horus’s injuries were the most important.
Kang De pinched a stone from the ground and attached it to the anchor point. He threw it back to the gorilla behind him. The gorilla knew its meaning, so Kang De did not say anything. Dark light flashed, and he and Horus disappeared from the spot.
The world changed. It was already another world. Kang De stopped at the vast runway of Comoros Airport with Horus. In the distance, a fog wall surged. White fog gathered in all directions and drilled into Horus’s body. His iron son suddenly let out a sauna-like moan and let out a long sigh.
“That was close…”
He said slowly.
The panel on his chest opened and the heavy helmet on his head and face was put down. Kang De looked over and discovered that it was familiar. The core part of the Transformer’s fire seed was protected by a protective board engraved with dragon patterns. That was the part he had passively extracted the dragon corpse and engraved for Horus in the battle of Red Maple City.
The essence power of the core was used by his iron son for life-saving protection.
That was why the other parts of his body were beaten up so badly, so the core system was not seriously injured.
Kang De heaved a sigh of relief. From the perspective of the Fire Thief, the omnipresent powerful white fog surged into Horus’s body to replenish the power consumed and dissipated. However, energy was energy, and the body was the body. The steel body that had been blasted until it was tattered did not grow and repair out of thin air. It was still the same.
It was like Megatron in Transformers 3.
He frowned slightly.
He watched helplessly as his iron son was beaten up by a self-explosion. However, with the mysterious telepathy between father and son, he could sense that Horus’s life was not in danger, so his anger was greater than his sorrow. Although his iron son looked a little miserable, he had seen a Transformer after all. Which generation of Optimus Prime had not been beaten up until they were in tatters? Only the one with insufficient funds could be slightly better…
After all, it was a mechanical body. How could breaking limbs be a problem?
He had seen Optimus Prime beaten up in the movie. When he got to the next movie, he would be alive and kicking. He had even changed his skin—but how the f*ck had he changed it?
Who was in charge of repairing the Transformers? An ambulance? How was it repaired? Who would provide the parts and components and how could they be made? Did the humans help? What was the logistics system like?
This was an insignificant setting in the movie. After all, everyone was here to watch the explosion, not a documentary about the Autobot. However, in front of them, the problem was huge…
He said, “How… can you repair this?”
Previously, in the battle with his iron son, it was not that Horus had never been injured, but those injuries were only superficial wounds. At most, he would remove the shell of some armored vehicles and weld and repair them himself. Then, he would let Kang De help extract and enchant them… However, these heavy injuries were clearly a huge project.
As expected, Horus struggled for a moment and said helplessly, “I don’t know. There are many damaged parts and systems. I have no clue at all. It’s not something that can be repaired immediately…”
Kang De pointed at the fighter jets and armored vehicles parked at the airport. “Are these suitable?”
Horus glanced at it. His electronic eyes flashed. Knowledge circulated in Tacitus. He was silent for a moment before slowly shaking his head. “It takes time… I have to think about it.”
If he treated the Transformers as a technological creation, the technical strength contained in them was so high that modern industry and scientific systems could not compare. Now that Horus was seriously injured and wanted to repair the damage, it already involved deep technology. Even if he copied it, it was very difficult to draw it well for a moment.
Kang De said firmly, “Let’s think of a way together.”
His iron son smiled and comforted him, “Father, don’t worry. It’s not a huge problem.”
The father and son looked at each other in silence.
No matter what, he had suffered a huge loss tonight.
Three days ago, he had still traveled a thousand miles and killed a lot. He had deterred Twilight and swept through an army. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, he had been beaten into such an awkward state and could only stare at each other here.
Before his iron son could speak, Kang De slowly said, “The road is still long.”
The Transformer nodded.
Although they could kill dragons and destroy an army in the form of fighter jets, they relied on the strength of modern weapons after all. The characteristics of modern weapons for humans were that they were powerful and fragile. They were omnipotent and extremely dependent on logistics. Advanced fighter jets attacked at the speed of sound and fought beyond visual range, but they were extremely fragile. A volley of rocket launchers was a sea of death, but if they were discovered by the enemy, they would basically die.
Therefore, facing the crazy attack of an expert tonight, Horus was caught off guard and suffered in the end.
The Transformer said, “The spear is already sharp enough, but the shield did not follow.”
This was also the characteristic of modern weapons.
Hot weapons had long ended the conflict.
Kang De pondered for a moment and said, “Then use better materials to repair you.”
“Yeah.”
His iron son said, “Father, you should go back. There are still many things to do in the other world.”
Kang De said, “There’s no hurry. I reversed time. Now, the time flow in the white fog world is the same as on Earth. It’s equivalent to one-seventh of the other world…”
“That’s about it. I’ll do the rest myself. First, I have to evaluate the damage systematically… Father can’t help much if he stays here.”
Horus said, “However, I have to lose my combat strength for at least a period of time. As for the other world…”
“Don’t think about this,” Kang De interrupted. “I know what to do.”
“…Yes.”
Horus had lost his combat strength in a short period of time and would bring additional trouble. Kang De calmed down and took a few deep breaths. He said, “Then I’ll go back first. I’ll visit you later.”
“Take care, Father.”
“Also…”
“Yes?”
“Thank you for just now.”
After saying this, Kang De broke through space and disappeared.
In the white fog world, Horus leaned against a wall and half-lying, suddenly letting out a long breath.
“D*mn… that was close. I was almost frightened to death.”
What it said was not about being attacked and collapsing, but before that.
Speaking of which, he was ashamed to give the gorilla love guidance not only to help his father but also to leave some precious video information to record his father’s daily life as a memento.
For example, tonight, when he saw the gorilla pull the dragon girl back, he secretly approached his father’s room and stuck out the camera and sound equipment, preparing to record his father’s youth as an important tool to communicate with him in the future. Then…
Then the bullet of the M134 Minigun shot out of the window of his father’s room.
The shooting speed of 6,000 bullets per minute almost made its camera stupid.
Amidst the bullets, he also heard his father roar, “Horus!”
Apart from feeling guilty, he hugged his head and fled like a rat. Moreover, he shouted from his heart extremely decisively, “Dad, I was wrong.” Then, he noticed the assassin who had sneaked in at some point.
Thinking of what had just happened, he really had mixed feelings. He looked down at his broken body. If not for the fact that he had been beaten up like this, causing his father to be guilty and angry, he would not have had the time to think carefully about this matter. Otherwise, at this moment, with his father’s intelligence, this matter would probably not be hidden.
“That was close, that was close…”
He muttered to himself, “In the future, if Father asks, I’ll pretend to have lost my memory.”
After making the calculations, his gaze became empty and quiet. The huge knowledge in Tacitus swept through the processor. Horus was looking for a way to repair his body.
Dark light flashed as Kang De returned to the other world.
This was not over.
