Chapter 8 The Unluckiest Wretch

“Saint Haigar language.”

Gunie could understand the furious curses of that alien mechanical angel.

Saint Haigar language, living metal, mechanical ships, mechanical angels.

Vaguely, Gunie had already guessed the possible region this enemy came from.

The mechanical angel was fast, incredibly fast.

A distance of over three hundred meters, including a turn, it crossed in just over a second.

“Die!”

Roaring, the mechanical angel swung a two-meter-long magic sword at Gunie in a fierce slash.

The sword light was dazzling, and the blade, scorching hot, directly vaporized a large amount of source force.

This precisely caused the flame essence to bloom wildly.

Gunie’s form instantly turned into a flash of blood light and dodged away.

“Boom!”

Where the magic sword landed, source force within a fifty-meter radius exploded directly, turning into blazing flames.

With one sword strike, the surroundings became a sea of fire.

Landing a hundred meters away, Gunie quickly unleashed the Greater Thunderflame Curse.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle...

The Lesser Thunderflame Curse, due to intermittent idling, was at level seven.

The Greater Thunderflame Curse, since acquisition, had been idling continuously without interruption.

This caused the Greater Thunderflame Curse’s level to reach a terrifying level eight.

The Greater Thunderflame Curse itself was a secret-pattern curse.

After rising to level eight, its power was already comparable to ordinary forbidden curses.

With the addition of destruction essence and darkness essence, its penetrating killing power naturally rose further.

“Die!” The mechanical wings shook in the air. The roar of the source force furnace engine was deafening.

The mechanical angel charged at Gunie again.

“Only you will die.”

The Greater Thunderflame Curse directly struck the mechanical angel.

Like black thunderbolts, each blast of the Greater Thunderflame Curse caused an extreme explosion of source force.

This mechanical angel, to be precise, was merely a mechanical angel battle armor.

What truly controlled it was the transcendent wearing the mechanical angel battle armor.

Other attack methods would only be blocked by the mechanical angel’s armor.

But the Greater Thunderflame Curse was precisely the best way to deal with such metal armor, even if it was living metal.

Three consecutive blasts of the Greater Thunderflame Curse struck.

Gunie clearly saw the mechanical angel’s flight trajectory begin to descend.

The penetrating power of the Greater Thunderflame Curse, even if a transcendent master endured it, would be killed on the spot. The power of a forbidden curse was no joke.

“Roar...”

Watching the descending mechanical angel,

Gunie’s demonic sub-soul activated its devouring talent ability toward the mechanical angel.

The alien expert, already unable to control the mechanical angel battle armor after being struck by the Greater Thunderflame Curse, naturally found it hard to resist the powerful devouring of a peak sixth-order demon lord.

“Whoosh, whoosh...”

The soul, like flowing water, was rapidly sucked in by the demonic sub-soul.

With a dull “Thud!”

The mechanical angel heavily crashed against the barrier of the void-source passage.

The alien expert inside the mechanical angel battle armor had no signs of life left.

His soul had been swallowed by the demonic sub-soul; he was dead beyond dead.

In a brief exchange, the alien transcendent controlling the mechanical angel had died at Gunie’s hands.

Looking at the mechanical angel, then at the distant wreckage of the ship,

Gunie did not let down his guard.

As Gunie chanted a curse, another fourth-order alien goblin warrior was summoned.

After putting a Blood Sea Shield on it,

“Go to the ship wreckage and see if there are any other living creatures,” Gunie ordered.

“Ook... Ook...”

The alien goblin warrior, carrying a rusty steel blade, walked toward the ship wreckage.

Gunie remained on alert, while the demonic sub-soul quickly began digesting the soul of the alien expert.

As it digested the soul, a vast amount of information rapidly unfolded in Gunie’s mind.

While absorbing this information, Gunie’s expression remained calm, but inside, waves stirred.

A few minutes later.

The alien goblin warrior carrying the blade circled the mechanical ship a few times, confirmed there was no danger, and walked back.

“Ook... Ook...”

The alien goblin warrior called out to Gunie.

At the same time, corresponding mental information was perceived by Gunie, roughly meaning that the ship area was safe.

Gunie waved his hand, and the alien goblin warrior quickly disappeared.

Then Gunie looked at the fallen alien expert wearing the living mechanical angel battle armor.

“You really are... unlucky!” Gunie chuckled lightly. “Lucky we met here; outside, I’d probably be the one dead.”

This alien expert was named “Alyx·Sandros·Entrel.”

He was a transcendent master from the high-dimensional transcendent world [Saint Haigar].

Yes, this “super unlucky wretch” called “Alyx” was himself a powerful transcendent master at the eighth order, even a formidable existence in their large transcendent world.

Calling him a “super unlucky wretch”

was because his series of unlucky encounters made Gunie wonder if the guy was cursed with bad luck.

Half a year ago,

this “Alyx” was piloting his mechanical ship through a “source energy light path” when he was accidentally misdirected and ended up in this starry sky.

Driving his mechanical ship, he wouldn’t have directly crashed into the spatial passage at the edge of the Oya Continent world.

But the problem was, as luck would have it, this unlucky wretch’s mechanical ship malfunctioned and broke down.

Then Alyx saw a world hurtling toward him.

And that arriving world was Oya Continent.

Normally, entering Oya Continent this way would be like a meteorite landing on it.

Just like when the angel entered Oya Continent before.

As a transcendent master, with his own strength and strong survival ability, there would be no problem.

But then this unlucky wretch’s unlucky trait went wild.

And so he, with his mechanical ship, happened to crash right into this area where the void-source passage had appeared.

This crash directly left Alyx severely injured.

Severe injuries could heal.

But this void-source passage had absolute suppression over transcendent masters.

Once a transcendent master entered, it was as if a mountain pressed down on them, making even a single move impossible.

Helpless, Alyx could only do one thing: let his realm collapse, dropping from eighth order to sixth order, to break free from the restraint.

Even at sixth order, he still had the mechanical angel battle armor, ensuring he retained the strength of a transcendent master.

However, dropping a realm wasn’t something you could just do.

Self-destructing the soul source core would most likely kill you.

So Alyx could only slowly and painstakingly dismantle his soul source core bit by bit.

This would allow him to later recondense a transcendent master’s soul source core.

After months of effort, just as he was about to succeed,

Gunie arrived.

Then, what followed was clear.

Seeing Gunie probing, Alyx had to quickly draw power for a large-scale stripping, which dropped him to sixth order while severely weakening him, making it hard to even mobilize essence and source force. He could only rely on the mechanical angel battle armor to fight.

But such strength was no match for Gunie.

In the end, this unlucky wretch fell at Gunie’s hands.

“When it comes to bad luck, I crown you the strongest,” Gunie sighed softly, looking at the dead, charred corpse.
