He went back into Stealth and frantically rushed through the rocks.
All of Saruha had started crumbling. Rocks kept falling from the middle, and through a mysterious power, a huge cone was already pushing out through the earth.
‘I have to quickly find the Mechanical Titan!’
‘Otherwise, escaping might be an issue!’
Marvin shivered as he frantically sped through the Armory.
Two minutes later, he found the location!
It was a huge stone door with a strange mark on it. Marvin recognized it as the mark of the Ancient Titans.
The Mechanical Titan was a weapon of war, an imitation of the Titan Race’s physical abilities and fighting style created by the Ancient Gnomes.
‘It’s here!’
Marvin rejoiced, and was about to go over when an arrogant-looking man suddenly appeared in front of the door!
Pale Hand Sky!
Marvin tensed up. He was in quite a pinch!
…
Outside Saruha, the Wolf Spider group retreated in bad shape.
The earth-shattering event frightened them greatly.
With Rem’s firm decision, most of them escaped.
That cone-shaped object coming out of the earth had deeply shocked them!
That glossy metal seemed to want to pierce the sky!
“Rumble!” With the earth caving in, nobody dared to stay any longer!
The pointed object kept rising up, while a platform supporting it was appearing from deep within the ground!
The surroundings were cracking and falling apart, while only these things were unaffected.
“What is that thing?!” asked a Wolf Spider mercenary while escaping.
Vice-Leader Lilia responded, “I remember seeing something about it in my ancient books about Saruha. This seems to be a very frightening weapon, but because of the fall of the Ancient Gnomes, the method to use it was lost.”
“How could that Robin use it?” Apart from their shock, all the mercenaries still felt reverence.
Lilia shook her head, reminding everyone to keep retreating.
How could she know about this?
…
On the other side of the fractured earth, a bat quickly flew out.
Not far away, a woman wearing a negligee approached.
The bat transformed into Gwyn.
“Stephanie!”
Gwyn’s complexion was very ugly. “You also came to kill me?”
Stephanie was startled. “Who said I wanted to kill you? Hold on… What frightening thing did you do over there with those mercenaries?”
Gwyn forced a smile.
The relationship between the two of them was rather peculiar. Meeting each other like this, he didn’t know what he should say.
“Rumble!”
Another landslide was rushing down, so the two Vampires transformed back into bats and went to a higher place, overlooking the sinking Saruha.
“Could this be his doing?” Gwyn muttered subconsciously in the face of this frightening and spectacular scene.
“He?” Stephanie seemed to notice something. She sniffed and suddenly frowned. “You have that man’s smell!”
Gwyn glanced at her with a vigilant expression. “What did the Dark Side send you for? Is a Pale Hand not enough?”
“Pale Hand?” Stephanie was startled. She frowned a bit and asked, “You mean that nutcase Sky?”
Gwyn nodded. “He came to kill me.”
Upon hearing that, killing intent flashed through Stephanie’s eyes. “What?! They actually dare to try to assassinate you?! And they even sent a Legend Assassin?”
Gwyn heard that and relaxed. “You really didn’t come to kill me?”
Stephanie laughed charmingly. “I like you so very much, how could I be willing to kill you? I came to kill another man, and it seems that you stayed with him for a while.”
Marvin?!
Gwyn was inwardly startled. He didn’t know when Marvin provoked the Dark Side to that extent. This time the Dark Side actually sent two powerhouses to kill Marvin and himself, but they never would have thought that both of them were at the same place.
“He is related to our Holy Blood Carrier.” Stephanie gave a mesmerizing smile. “I want to find that girl with the Holy Blood and eat her up. The greatest clue is with that man, so don’t interfere. Even if I’m very fond of you, I won’t yield to you.”
Gwyn sneered.
Stephanie’s character was very strange. She was one of the most powerful people who switched over to the Dark Side in the recent years.
Age-wise, she could be considered his grandmother, but she fell in love with Gwyn at first sight and wanted to force him into being her groom. In the end she was stopped by another expert of the Bright Side.
Angered by this, she actually turned against the Bright Side and joined the Dark Side. This was considered a shameful matter by the Bright Side.
Stephanie was very powerful at level 20 and already had a foot in the Legend Realm.
Moreover, she had a part of a Primogenitor bloodline awakened and her strength far exceeded that of ordinary Vampires.
Gwyn couldn’t make out what exactly she was after now, but she really had no enmity toward himself.
The two were silent for half a minute before Stephanie suddenly asked, “Is that man still underneath?”
Gwyn glanced at the collapsing ground and frowned, not saying anything.
Since Stephanie came to kill Marvin, he naturally wouldn’t reveal much.
In fact, if not for Marvin, he might have already been killed by the Pale Hand in Saruha.
He was a bit worried whether Marvin could escape before Saruha collapsed completely.
“It would be a pity if he died like that. Since he killed Pursuer Huntson, his head could be exchanged for many high-quality blood slaves.”
After saying this, Stephanie couldn’t help but lick her upper lip.
Gwyn sighed inwardly, turning back without a word.
He knew he couldn’t change Stephanie’s mind. It was just like when she betrayed the Bright Side. Even if he tried to stop her from killing Marvin, she wouldn’t listen.
“You might not necessarily be his match.”
Gwyn was quite confident about Marvin’s chances.
That guy destroyed the Decaying Plateau and also tore a Black Dragon with his bare hands. He had done this world’s most impossible things.
Stephanie might not be able to handle Marvin!
The former showed a surprised expression, before smiling. “Are you concerned about my safety?”
Gwyn turned cold, intending to transform into a bat and leave.
Suddenly, the rumbles intensified!
Only a small area of Saruha’s outer regions was left.
“There is someone still inside?!”
Stephanie’s Perception was very high, and at that time she thoroughly looked through that area.
It was just that in this situation, even she didn’t dare to act recklessly and could only wait for the outcome.
…
Saruha, in the area that had yet to cave in.
An earth-shattering battle was underway!
Sky and Slaughterer!
The fight between the two was blocking access to the stone door.
Marvin was hidden in a dark area, watching the fight, his heart beating faster while feeling bitter.
If it was only the Pale Hand, he could perhaps use the Shadow Doppelganger to draw his attention before quickly rushing to the stone door, activating the Mechanical Titan and escaping from this place.
But just as he was about to try that, Slaughterer had arrived.
Upon arriving, Slaughterer didn’t care who was the true culprit anymore. As far as it was concerned, since he was found with Marvin now, Sky was definitely also a target to be eliminated.
Marvin took advantage of Slaughterer’s arrival to make himself scarce, but the fight between them kept going in this narrow place regardless
of the falling rocks.
With two there that wanted to kill him, the risk was a lot higher!
Marvin’s had a headache.
He endured patiently, but to no effect!
He glanced at the launchpad, seeing that it was already set.
The System Assistance displayed the countdown, showing that there were five minutes left until the launch.
He hadn’t experienced a rocket launch before, but he knew that when this thing lifted off, the temperature in the surroundings wouldn’t be something he could endure.
‘In any case, I have to risk it!’
Marvin ground his teeth and condensed a Shadow Doppelganger.
He had the Shadow Doppelganger use Stealth and deliberately made it get hit by a falling rock, exposing it.
“It’s him!”
Sky’s eyes darted over and he quickly noticed the staggering Marvin!
In the chaos, he failed to realize that it was a Doppelganger and directly flickered over!
It was the same for Slaughterer who followed closely!
Even if the Shadow Doppelganger only had half of Marvin’s strength, its escaping abilities were still outstanding.
It instantly fled toward the outside, and although it couldn’t escape the two, it was enough to create an opportunity!
Night Boundary!
In that split second, Marvin’s silhouette suddenly flashed and appeared next to the stone door.
He inserted the green card into the slot outside the stone door.
Sky realized that he had been duped and rushed over with Slaughterer.
But they were too late.
The stone door turned transparent, and Marvin entered while holding the card!
Slaughterer fired indiscriminately toward the stone door and Sky!
But this was futile.
And seeing that Marvin had gotten away again, Sky finally decided to leave!
The place was collapsing, and fighting Slaughterer any longer would only help Marvin. Staying here had no further meaning.
…
Inside, a tall figure appeared in front of Marvin, wrapped under layers of clothes.
Excitement flashed through Marvin’s eyes. ‘Mechanical Titan, I’m here!’
He then tore off the layers of clothes covering it!

Dust rose up from the clothes, making Marvin cough several times.
The beautiful metallic glow was very clear even in the night.
This was one of the highest accomplishments oxf the Ancient Gnome Race, the Mechanical Titan!
Practically all of Saruha had already collapsed from the earthquake. Slaughterer didn’t have any kind of authority over the stone door, and thus could only escape in the end!
Holding the card, Marvin climbed on the Mechanical Titan’s body, reaching the cockpit in a blink!
The green card brushed past, and the cockpit immediately opened.
Marvin frowned.
Even if he had been expecting it, the narrow cockpit made Marvin rather annoyed.
This Mechanical Titan was crafted by the Ancient Gnomes for Ancient Gnomes after all, so the cockpit had two positions which would be operated by two Gnomes.
But it was too narrow!
Although Marvin could be considered quite thin, forcing his way in the cockpit was still very challenging.
But with the current circumstances, he couldn’t do much about it. If it was before, he could have used the Assassin’s Bone Shrink technique.
Marvin eventually forced himself into the cockpit.
His movements were very twisted.
When he was fully inside, the glass cockpit automatically closed and Marvin inserted his card into a slot on the side. A beeping sound echoed beside his ears.
The Mechanical Titan truly activated!
Even though he normally couldn’t understand anything about the Mechanical Titan’s controls, the System Assistance could help him solve this issue and even help control the Mechanical Titan for him.
He placed his hands on the controls on both sides while his entire body was scrunched into a ball. It looked rather funny.
“Beep! Beep! Beep!”
The red light in front turned green.
With the help of the System Assistance, the Mechanical Titan’s display automatically switched to Common with no traces of Ancient Gnomish left!
“Correct key detected, Titan is activating…”
A mechanical voice echoed near Marvin’s ears.
“Hurry up!” Although he was already hiding in the Mechanical Titan, Marvin was still alarmed.
In less than two minutes, the rocket would be launched.
It wouldn’t be fun if he died trapped in here!
Fortunately the Mechanical Titan booted very quickly. The sweet sounding mechanical voice once again echoed by Marvin’s ears. “Activation procedures completed. Testing all major modules…”
“Remaining energy levels are low…”
“Warning! You don’t have enough authority to start all modules!”
Two notifications resounded one after the other, creating waves in Marvin’s heart.
He checked the logs and found to his annoyance that even if he held the key and had help from the System Assistance, he still needed the Ancient Gnome bloodline to completely activate all of the Mechanical Titan’s modules!
He was a Numan descendant and was otherwise thoroughly Human. How could he have Ancient Gnome bloodline to activate the remaining modules?
“Beep Beep Beep Beep!”
The beeping became increasingly alarming, and echoed not only in Saruha’s underground cave, but even in the surrounding areas!
One minute left!
Sweat trickled down Marvin’s forehead as he asked while clenching his teeth, “How much power is left?”
The mechanical voice answered, “29% remaining.”
Marvin slightly relaxed. It wasn’t completely out of energy. After all, the original energy reserves should have been filled originally.
“Which modules can be activated at the moment?” This was Marvin’s most important concern!
“The Cooling System,” the mechanical voice answered perfunctorily.
Marvin was speechless.
Through his logs, he could easily understand that the Cooling System controlled the temperature of the cockpit… It was air conditioning!!!
‘Fuck! Could it be that you can only control the air conditioning with the key?’ Marvin felt extremely gloomy.
But he didn’t give up.
Because his logs showed that his System Assistance was still breaking through the Ancient Gnomes’ simpler procedures!
He might have a chance to unravel the other modules before the rocket was launched!
Marvin carefully looked at the progress of the modules being unlocked and suddenly had a headache!
It would take at least twenty minutes to break through all the modules.
‘No good, this is taking too long!’
“Alter the decoding priority, start by unlocking the [Movement Power System]… And the [Jump System]!”
Marvin gritted his teeth and controlled the System Assistance procedures with his will.
The time was immediately shortened, only needing 28 seconds!
There was still time.
Marvin relaxed a bit.
The rumbling could be heard getting louder and closer.
He could even see some sparks as well as lava emerging from the earth!
It wasn’t natural, and was instead created from the rock melting under these high temperatures.
But as things reached this stage, Marvin was actually calm.
Since the air conditioning system had already been unlocked, he could hopefully rely on the Mechanical Titan’s outer shell to handle the extremely high temperatures without worrying too much about his life.
&nb
sp; But in order to avoid the Mechanical Titan suffering unneeded damage, Marvin still wanted to leave before the rocket was fired!
…
The entire South was watching the scene in the sky.
What happened in Feinan these days made people restless and alarmed.
Such a strange scene appearing in the sky made some people recollect things.
“That’s the sign of the Ancient Sun God!”
“Saruha! It’s a vestige of the Ancient Gnomes.”
“Who woke up the dormant Saruha? And what is that thing?”
Wizards in their Wizard Towers were observing the rocket as it became unearthed, while checking ancient books.
And in the Astral Sea, curses could be heard!
There was that dense fog once again!
It was clear that a major event was happening in Feinan, but they couldn’t see the situation. It was hard to keep calm in these circumstances.
“Ladies and Gentlemen, there is no need to feel anxious.”
“It’s only a group of mortals, so in the end, what difference does it make?”
“A decision has already been made during our meeting. We will attack the Universe Magic Pool in a month.”
“Everyone, please return to your own God Realm to cultivate.”
An awe-inspiring voice echoed through the Astral Sea, and all the gods seemed to be afraid of this voice. They all silently scattered.
…
In the Shadow Realm, the Shadow Prince was pleasantly enjoying the services of two blonde beauties.
These two beauties were chosen from a sub-plane he recently opened. Not only did they have the potential to be Apostles, but their physical bodies were also outstanding.
The Shadow Prince had ascended to godhood using a Fate Tablet fragment in the 3rd Era and naturally felt emotions and desires. It was just that the more he obtained, the higher he would aim. Otherwise, something like stealing the Moon Goddess’ lingerie wouldn’t have happened.
‘That Marvin should have already died from my curses, right?’
‘Hmph, he made me lose an avatar and a sub-plane. It’s a pity I didn’t capture him alive.’
He was currently rather satisfied, but suddenly, he had an ominous feeling!

Glynos couldn’t make sense of this strange feeling.
