Chapter 238

Iron 72 ignored him and said, "From here until we reach the nest of the Gold Devourer mother that is about to become a Royal, we have no way to hide. We can only barge in."

Iron 72 was talking about what Adam had seen through his radar vision. The Gold Devourer patrol squads were crisscrossing the entire space within a thousand-kilometer radius. The white dots that represented the number of Gold Devourers gathered together, leaving no room for breathing. In this case, let alone the invisible barrier, even walking in the void would be squeezed out by the violent energy disturbances.

"I can't leave. If I retreat, Lithium-60 will definitely not be able to complete the mission." Iron 72 waved his hand at Lithium-60, signaling him to shut up. He then continued to speak to Adam, "But if I don't cover you, even if you leave alone, you will only be torn apart by the Gold Devourers."

Adam knew that Iron 72 was right. He could guarantee that he would be resurrected after dying, but he had never thought that he could escape unscathed. This was very clear when Adam found out what this mission was.

In the border area of the Gold Devourers opposite the Iron Castle, a peak Level 9 mother was about to become a Royal. This was also the reason why the Gold Devourers started the war. They needed to plunder fire seeds and resources to supply this mother. Once it successfully became a Level 9, its direct descendants would be born as Level 9. The Iron Castle's strength would definitely not be able to deal with the Gold Devourers that were all Level 9.

No one knew why such a high-level entity would appear at the border. During the previous two years of war, the Titans had fought desperately, not hesitating to die and self-destruct to prevent a trace of the origin flame from falling into the hands of the Gold Devourers. However, as a natural enemy, the Gold Devourers always had a way. During the two years, they had collected a similar amount of fire seeds from thousands of dead Titans. The evolution would happen at any time.

Once the mother became a Royal, the fall of the Iron Castle and the surrounding millions of square kilometers would be inevitable. No Titan could sit idly by and do nothing about this loss. Therefore, the Iron Castle's commander-in-chief, Iron 72, personally went out and sent Lithium-60, who had a 44% chance of being sacrificed, to the mother to self-destruct and perish together with it.

To be honest, the mission plan was very straightforward and crude, but it was the only choice that could be made in a race against time.

One kilogram of lithium could release 97,443 kilojoules of heat after burning. The heat and energy produced by the explosion of a thousand-ton lithium-60 was enough to turn the entire border area of the Gold Eaters into ashes. However, in order to kill a Hyperdimensional lifeform, they had to get close to it.

Lithium-60 had been replenishing his energy to overload himself. He finally found a chance to interrupt, "Who said that I can't complete the mission myself? I'm very strong too. Even without your help, I can walk to the mother's side. It's a pity that I can't pass the fire." Li 60's tone was very relaxed. His only obsession was that he couldn't pass on the tinder. He didn't seem to care about his own life or death.

Lithium-60 was lying. It was impossible for a complete energy-type Titan to break through such a tight blockade alone. If he exploded before reaching the mother, then his sacrifice would be in vain.

Adam said straightforwardly, "I choose to go with you. I won't die."

Adam knew that he was telling the truth, but neither Iron 72 nor Lithium-60 believed him. However, the fact that Adam couldn't leave was a foregone conclusion. The two didn't say anything emotional. After giving a large number of energy blocks to Adam, they each took out an exquisite external armor and placed it on Adam's body.

Silence began to spread. An hour later, Iron 72 was like a black hole, swallowing the surrounding light. Lithium-60, after swallowing the last energy block, began to emit light like a light bulb. The energy fluctuations caused the environment to evaporate, instantly attracting the attention of the Gold Eaters.

Hum …

They were awakened, alerted, and sent messages. Countless infrasound waves gathered and shook the surrounding air. Iron 72 soared into the sky and pierced through the defensive circle like a blade.

Lithium-60 turned around and said gently to Adam, "Let's go too. En, good luck."

"I should be the one wishing you good luck," Adam thought. He jumped up lightly and stood on Lithium-60's shoulder. Then, he melted his body and turned it into paint again to cover Lithium-60's body.

Lithium-60 stopped spewing flames. He felt a strange force attached to his body, reducing his weight and allowing him to fly. He said with interest, "Liquid body. You're really a smart person. I hope you can survive."

Adam gave up on the invisible magnetic field and focused on creating a high-intensity electric field. He used Lithium-60's energy to create lightning, storms, and plasma streams that filled the sky. Beta rays were shot out at a frequency of 755 times per second. He used all his strength to block the Gold Eaters that were rushing towards them.

Iron 72 didn't hide his presence in the distance, attracting countless low-level Metal Devourers. Every time he moved forward, he would kill a large number of enemies, but in the next instant, even more Metal Devourers would pounce on him. Every meter was accompanied by the deaths of thousands of Gold Eaters.

The level-one and level-two Gold Eaters were not afraid of death. On the other hand, the high-level Gold Eaters formed a battle formation as fast as they could. Their energy attacks covered the sky and their force field attacks were everywhere. The corrosive liquid was like the sky pouring down, constantly smashing onto Iron 72's body.

He only maintained a layer of defensive force field on the surface of his body and used his body to block all the attacks. Even if his body was constantly injured, he did not take a step back.

Suddenly, two teams of high-level Gold Eaters bypassed Iron 72 and flew towards Adam. The combination of several attacks was actually showing signs of crystallization. Adam's Origin Flame burned on Lithium-60's body. The power of the magnetic field increased again and again, but it could only slightly change the direction of the attacks.

"I can't block it."

Lithium-60 used the flame to replenish Adam's energy. He then said softly, "It's okay, Iron 72 can do it."

The crystallized attacks were rapidly approaching. At that moment, Iron 72 let out an earth-shattering roar. The sound wave shook the Gold Eaters in front of him into minced meat. Then, his whole body resonated with the sound wave. Fine iron sand with the flame's energy burst out of his body. Using the resonance force, Iron 72 was like a large meat grinder at this moment.

Due to the large amount of Iron Element leaking out, coupled with the constant trembling of his body, he looked somewhat illusory and unreal. However, in this state, his physical attack power was shockingly powerful. Flames spewed out from his back, and under the tremendous acceleration, he charged straight towards Adam.

The two teams of Gold Eaters immediately gave up on Adam and turned around. The team dispersed, wanting to let Iron 72 pass them. However, Adam did not give them the chance. He activated the magnetic field interference at full force, causing a one-second delay.

However, it was this one-second delay that allowed Iron 72 to crash into them. The scene seemed to freeze at that moment. Then, the sound of bamboo skewers piercing raw meat rang out.
