106: The reward went astray.

The fifth floor, still one punch!

And when they reached the sixth floor, where early-stage rewards could be obtained, the space was completely different from the first five floors.

It was no longer a bright metal hall, but a deep, dark blue space.

The entire space was silent, giving people an oppressive feeling.

"This is the sixth floor."

Huang Shi followed behind Bai Ye, his voice unconsciously lowered significantly:

"The final stage of the first half of the trial, the guardian is on that platform."

"According to our Family's records, it is not necessary to completely defeat the guardian of the sixth floor."

Huang Shi continued to explain:

"You only need to hold out for ten minutes under its attacks to pass the trial."

After all, it was too demanding to ask a Level 4 Beast Tamer to single-handedly fight a Lord-level mechanical beast pet.

Just as the two were speaking, the central platform suddenly trembled violently.

Accompanied by a low humming sound, three black metal spheres, each over two meters in diameter and painted with lightning symbols on their surfaces, rose from beneath the platform.

In the center of each sphere was embedded a huge red single eye.

The three metal spheres hovered in mid-air, moving in unpredictable three-body motion trajectories, connected to each other by a powerful magnetic field, occasionally emitting "zizzing" arcs of electricity.

Finally, they formed a strange shape resembling a UFO, hovering in mid-air.

The three red eyes locked onto Bai Ye and Huang Shi below simultaneously.

【Name】: Tri-Core Magnetic Electric Tyrant

【attribute】: mechanical / Electric

【Rank】: Elite Limit

【Aptitude】: Lord Initial

"Elite Limit, Lord Aptitude..."

Bai Ye looked at the information on the illustrated compendium, clenching his fists tightly!

I really want to take it away!!!

"Challengers, your courage is worthy of praise."

The three cores of the Tri-Core Magnetic Electric Tyrant actually emitted a synthesized electronic voice, creating a strange stereo effect in the vast trial space.

"Being able to reach here proves your strength, but your journey ends here."

"This machine is the final guardian of the first trial of the Tower of Inheritance. Before this machine, all resistance will be futile. Leave now..."

The announcement set in its program had not yet finished before it was rudely interrupted.

A figure carrying a hint of emerald green crossed a distance of over a hundred meters and appeared in front of the Tri-Core Magnetic Electric Tyrant.

Bai Ye had no interest in listening to its long-winded speech here.

His right elbow, gathering a portion of his power and wrapped in rich grass-attribute energy, slammed fiercely into one of the metal spheres.

"Energy-Storing Nature Fist · Elbow!"

Crash for me!

Crack!

The hard alloy shell dented into a huge pit under this elbow strike, and a large number of cracks spread out like a spider web.

The Tri-Core Magnetic Electric Tyrant itself was a stable structure connected by a magnetic field.

Under the violent force, it was like a bowling ball being knocked away, tumbling in mid-air and smashing against the wall of the Trial Tower.

Boom!

Accompanied by a loud noise, the three metal spheres scattered on the ground, rolling around, making a series of "clanging" sounds.

The core that was hit by Bai Ye was even emitting puffs of black smoke.

"Zz... Zz..."

The three metal spheres scattered on the ground struggled to float up again and combined once more.

The magnetic field connecting them had clearly become much more unstable.

The red single eye of the core that was hit was flickering, already on the verge of being scrapped.

"To be able to withstand one punch from me without being scrapped, I have to admit, you are indeed stronger than the scrap metal on the lower floors."

"So, I plan to get serious!"

A flash of golden light appeared in Bai Ye's eyes, and he arrived in front of it at a speed that the Tri-Core Magnetic Electric Tyrant could not analyze.

On the fist, an even richer emerald green light began to gather.

"You..."

It was different from other mechanical Demonic Beasts; it had been implanted with a strong artificial intelligence when it was created.

It also possessed simulated human emotions, and a data stream called "fear" swept through its core processor.

If it were hit by this punch, it would definitely break.

"Wait, I surrender!! The trial is passed."

Driven by its survival instinct, the Tri-Core Magnetic Electric Tyrant issued a shrill plea for mercy.

Bai Ye's fist, which was about to be thrown, stopped abruptly less than a centimeter away from it.

The strong wind brought about by the fist's momentum made its massive body shake.

Bai Ye looked at this cowardly guardian in front of him and asked somewhat uncertainly: "Can this guy... surrender?"

Huang Shi also shook his head with a blank face: "I don't know, it wasn't written in the books either."

"Yes, I can surrender."

The Tri-Core Magnetic Electric Tyrant, fearing that Bai Ye would go back on his word, quickly shouted loudly.

"Surrender is a reasonable tactical choice. Congratulations, Challenger, you have proven yourself with absolute strength and passed the first trial."

The electronic voice was full of flattery; there was no trace of the dignity it had as a guardian before.

Bai Ye lowered his fist; mainly, even if he destroyed this thing, he couldn't take it away.

The drop rate was zero, so whether he destroyed it or not was actually the same thing.

He looked at this cowardly guardian, always feeling that something was not quite right.

From the first floor, the mechanical Demonic Beasts he encountered were more dull than the last, only executing the simplest commands.

As a result, when it came to this final stage, the guardian was actually so "humanized."

Not only could it talk tough, but it also knew how to assess the situation and surrendered when it couldn't win.

"Since the trial is passed, what about the reward?"

Bai Ye was too lazy to delve into these things.

"The reward has been placed on the seventh floor. There are no trials there; you can just go straight up."

The Tri-Core Magnetic Electric Tyrant replied quickly.

After speaking, it carefully floated backward, wanting to stay away from Bai Ye, this menace.

Bai Ye didn't make things difficult for it anymore.

The two of them went directly to the seventh floor.

The room was not large, and the decoration was extremely simple. Apart from the huge pillar of light emitting a soft white light in the center, there was nothing else.

The entire room was filled with a sacred atmosphere.

"Challenger, congratulations on passing the first trial."

A grand voice sounded from the roof.

"As the victor, you will receive the gift of the Tower of Inheritance."

"Detected Challenger 'Huang Shi', possesses 'Refining' talent, meets the conditions for reward distribution."

"Detected Challenger 'Bai Ye', does not possess 'Refining' talent, does not meet the conditions for reward distribution."

"Reward judgment in progress... Judgment complete."

"Now starting the restoration of the Refining talent."

The prompt disappeared, and the huge pillar of light in the center shone brightly.

A solid beam of golden light shot out from the pillar of light, aiming straight at... Bai Ye.

"Hm?"

Bai Ye was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to dodge.

Why did this thing come at him?

Wasn't it said that the reward was for Huang Shi?

The speed of the golden beam was too fast; even he couldn't react in time before being enveloped by it.

Huang Shi, who was on the side, seeing this scene, revealed three parts surprise, three parts sadness, three parts depression, and one part relief on his face.

His entire face turned into a pie chart.

When the beam touched Bai Ye's body... it stopped.

Like a charger that couldn't find a socket, it anxiously circled around Bai Ye's body, seemingly looking for something.

For a moment it turned into a question mark, and for a moment it stretched out two light tentacles, poking around on Bai Ye's body.

He seriously suspected that the System of the Tower of Inheritance had a BUG.

Huang Shi: "..."

What is going on, can the reward even go off-course?
