51: Golden-armored executioner, mechanical White Moon Demon?

In the boss area of the fourth floor of the Qin Kings Underground Palace, a tall and mighty golden-armored monster blocked Lin Du's path.

The golden-armored monster had a towering physique and an overwhelming aura, holding a blood-red giant axe as wide as a door panel, like a gatekeeper from hell.

The blood-red giant axe was stained with blood, as if it had slaughtered billions of lives, emitting a nauseating bloody smell.

Monster: Golden-Armored Executioner (Emperor-rank)

Level: 14

Skills: 1. Cold-Blooded Slash

2. Blood Mist Disturbance

3. Decapitating Strike

Description: The executioner of the Mechanical Race, countless souls have perished under its blood axe, possessing a natural suppressive force against flesh-and-blood creatures.

An Emperor-rank Monster has arrived!

Standing before the Golden-Armored Executioner, Lin Du indeed felt a suppressive force.

This feeling was like encountering a natural enemy, even the desire to fight in his heart had significantly diminished... After a monster's level reaches Lord-level, for every level it goes up, its strength will have a qualitative improvement.

Emperor-rank Monsters are ceiling-level existences in any race.

As for the higher Saint-level and God-level monsters, they are already legendary existences, reaching the level of the top power-holders of various races.

The Golden-Armored Executioner dragged its blood-red giant axe and strode towards Lin Du.

Wherever it passed, a pungent smell of blood permeated the air, making it impossible for anyone to even think of attacking.

Ho ho ho—

The Golden-Armored Executioner's speed increased, it raised the blood-red giant axe in its hand, and a domineering "Cold-Blooded Slash" went straight for Lin Du's head.

Whoosh—

The wide blade of the blood-red giant axe was like a door panel, obscuring the sky and sun; just by smashing, it could crush a person into a pulp!

Lin Du chose not to dodge this attack; he wanted to test the Golden-Armored Executioner's strength.

Lin Du bent his knees to gather strength, and his body agilely sprang towards the blood-red giant axe.

The silver charm blade drew an elegant arc, meeting the sharp edge of the blood-red giant axe!

The size difference between these two weapons was huge, making it seem a bit overconfident.

The Golden-Armored Executioner silently sneered with its wide mouth, clearly looking down on the tiny human before it.

Clang—

The two weapons, one large and one small, collided, and a deafening clang of metal echoed, a series of sparks flew out, and a visible chip appeared on the blood-red giant axe... The Golden-Armored Executioner's pupils constricted, and its body was shaken back three or four steps by the immense force.

This collision ended with the Golden-Armored Executioner's complete defeat!

Lin Du seized the opportunity, and the silver charm blade sliced across the Golden-Armored Executioner's left elbow before it could react.

"Sizzle! Sizzle!"

After one strike, the Golden-Armored Executioner's power core at its elbow suddenly failed.

The Golden-Armored Executioner was greatly alarmed.

How could a human find the location of its power core so precisely?

If all its power cores failed, it would die instantly!

The Golden-Armored Executioner realized something was wrong and hurriedly tried to force Lin Du back.

But in a speed competition, how could the Golden-Armored Executioner be Lin Du's opponent?

Lin Du appeared like a ghost on the Golden-Armored Executioner's right side, and the silver charm blade once again sliced across its right elbow.

"Sizzle! Sizzle!"

The power core at the Golden-Armored Executioner's right elbow also failed... Lin Du's two attacks made the Golden-Armored Executioner realize the danger.

The Golden-Armored Executioner went all out, and a thick blood mist immediately filled the air around its body.

Skill: Blood Mist Disturbance!

There were traces of black substance mixed in the blood mist, which served to confuse the mind.

At the same time, the Golden-Armored Executioner once again raised the blood axe in its hand, fully activating its strongest skill, "Decapitating Strike"!

This was the Golden-Armored Executioner's strongest state; it intended to instantly kill Lin Du with one blow!

Lin Du showed no panic at the sight.

The moment the blood mist erupted, the silver charm blade in his hand quickly sliced across the Golden-Armored Executioner's left knee.

After hearing the "sizzle, sizzle" sound, Lin Du retreated from the range of the blood mist and Decapitating Strike, simultaneously flinging the silver charm blade towards the Golden-Armored Executioner's right knee.

Whoosh—

The silver charm blade accurately embedded itself into the Golden-Armored Executioner's right knee.

"Sizzle! Sizzle!"

With a strong electric current sound, the Golden-Armored Executioner's massive body stiffened in place... The Golden-Armored Executioner was a four-core mechanical monster; its dual elbows and dual knees were where its hidden power cores were located.

Without destroying these four power cores, it would be almost impossible to kill the Golden-Armored Executioner!

Lin Du, relying on the "knowledge" in his mind and a two-level advantage, completely crushed this Emperor-rank Monster.

The dropped equipment had decent attributes; Lin Du glanced at it and then put it into his backpack.

Fourth floor, cleared!

...After entering the Qin Kings Underground Palace Instance, the trigger chance of the heart of the goddess of luck was much lower than before.

Lin Du always had a feeling that the heart of the goddess of luck seemed to be saving up for a big move... The fifth underground floor of the Qin Kings Underground Palace Instance.

When Lin Du stepped in, it was as if he had arrived in a brand new world.

A blank world!

This floor did not have the disarray of the previous four floors, nor was it densely packed with alien monsters.

Within the vast space, there was only one exquisitely magnificent Mechanical Throne!

On the Mechanical Throne, a silver humanoid creature sat, elegantly crossing its legs.

The silver creature's appearance and figure were completely identical to normal humans, showing no difference.

Perhaps the only difference was that the silver figure on the Mechanical Throne was too, too beautiful; its looks could even rival Ning Fengya's divine beauty.

The silver creature had short, ear-length silver hair, and its body was forged from an unknown silver metal, seamlessly integrated without any visible gaps or crafting marks, as if wearing a silver catsuit.

The silver creature had a full chest, astonishingly long legs, and a perfect body proportion without a single flaw.

Beside her, a silver tang saber, gleaming with cold light, stood upright on the Mechanical Throne.

This combination was both cool and dashing; just one look was enough to know that this silver creature must have astonishing combat power.

Watching this scene, a hint of solemnity gradually appeared between Lin Du's brows.

Because this final stage was completely different from what he had originally designed!
