In the blink of an eye, a colossal golem far surpassing conventional dimensions materialized.
Unlike other clumsy, bulky golems, this one resembled a goblin magnified a hundredfold, its lines sleek and powerful. Its entire body was encased in dark gold alloy armor, etched with dense patterns of alchemical runes.
At the center of its head was embedded a massive, icy-cold alchemical prosthetic eye that emitted an eerie blue glow.
How did this thing survive my destruction dragon breath? Garos wondered.
"Foolish beast," the golem's emotionless voice boomed across the battlefield through mechanical amplification. "Do you think you've won? You know nothing of the limits of alchemy."
In the next instant, it moved with unimaginable speed.
Its colossal frame didn't rely on treads or articulated joints for locomotion. Instead, a circular energy shockwave erupted beneath its feet, propelling it skyward like a cannonball. It hurtled toward the red-iron dragon, which had just finished unleashing its breath and was still adjusting its posture.
The golem's massive metal palm opened, revealing not a cannon muzzle, but a rapidly spinning vortex of pure energy—a tearing vortex.
Simultaneously, armor plates on its back split open, revealing rows of gleaming metal spikes—void-piercing cones. Launched like arrows from an invisible crossbow, they streaked toward Garos's eyes, throat, and heart with a piercing shriek, exceeding the speed of sound.
"You know nothing of evolution."
Garos temporarily pushed aside his doubts.
Facing the alchemical colossus's attack, the red-iron dragon crushed and swallowed a barrel of black oil retrieved from his space ring.
Simultaneously, he raised his head and unleashed a thunderous dragon's roar.
With a piercing, electrifying crackle, dense golden lightning erupted from the gaps in his scales. His muscles bulged further, his body swelling several times its original size, transforming him into an even more terrifying war machine than the alchemy golem.
With a sweep of his dragon wings, the red-iron dragon transformed into a golden flash.
He twisted and flickered, his massive body displaying terrifying speed as he evaded the void-piercing cones and closed the distance to the alchemical colossus with impossible swiftness.
Level 3 Dragon Qi Circulation!
Flame Lightning Infusion!
Blazing Dragon Claw!
Enhanced Claw Strike!
Black-red dragon qi, crimson-gold flame lightning, and scarlet flames simultaneously enveloped Garos's surging claws, forming the most devastating claw strike his current form could unleash.
Sizzle—BOOM!
The alchemical colossus's indestructible head armor, under the assault of Garos's burning dragon claws, collapsed inward and tore apart as easily as butter under a hot knife. Countless intricate alchemical runes instantly extinguished and disintegrated.
The massive alchemical prosthetic eye shattered under the unbearable strain.
The colossus's head caved in with a thunderous crash, half its face shattered.
Zzzzt... Lightning-like magic energy surged, attempting to pull the fragments back together and restore the colossus.
But more attacks followed in rapid succession.
The red-iron dragon pressed close to the alchemical colossus, its claws, tail, and wings transforming into deadly weapons that rained down on the colossus like a torrential storm.
Suddenly, the colossus's cracked single eye lit up, emitting high-frequency shockwaves that momentarily paralyzed the red-iron dragon.
Simultaneously, its right arm shot upward, the forearm morphing and combining to extend into a massive, ten-meter-long greatsword wreathed in crackling arcs of electricity. Seizing a momentary gap in the dragon's assault, the colossus swung the blade down with tremendous force.
Boom!
Dragon blood splattered as the red-iron dragon was sent flying backward. Before it could even hit the ground, it surged back into the fray with renewed ferocity.
A strike that could cleave an ordinary young dragon in two had left only a deep, bone-grazing wound on the red-iron dragon. Though massive, it was far from a critical injury for a creature of dragonkind's resilience.
The red-iron dragon was several sizes smaller than the alchemical colossus.
Yet its attacks were far more savage.
The red-iron dragon, its body crackling with golden lightning, pounced on the colossus. Under its relentless assault, countless components scattered like severed limbs.
Clang!
The alchemical colossus's shoulder was sliced open by the swirling dragon wings, and its arm crashed heavily to the ground.
Crack!
The half-shattered head was twisted off and hurled into the sky like a baseball.
Rip!
The chest armor was pierced by a spear-like tail, tearing out countless shattered components.
Garos recklessly expended his dragon qi, reducing the alchemical colossus to a riddled husk in moments. The wounds inflicted by the colossus only fueled Garos's frenzy, driving him to greater heights of exhilaration.
Another minute passed.
The red-iron dragon suddenly retreated, then flapped its wings, unleashing a torrent of surging flames. Like a crimson-gold lightning bolt, it surged forward with renewed ferocity.
Level 3 Dragon Qi Circulation!
Dragon Collision!
Just as the alchemical colossus's hand clamped down on the red-iron dragon, a swirling vortex of energy tore away its scales.
Simultaneously, a distinct indentation formed on its dark-gold chest.
The dragon's formidable horns pierced through the colossus's chest first, sending sparks flying as scales scraped against steel. Then, the dragon's massive body crashed through the colossus's frame, shattering it completely.
Boom!
The alchemical colossus collapsed as if struck by lightning, its remains scattered across the battlefield.
The red-iron dragon raised its head and spread its wings, bathing in the rain of shattered metal fragments. Its wounds and bloodstains shone like badges of honor as it surveyed the battlefield, like a king surveying his domain and subjects.
"The grand artificer... is dead..."
"He's immortal... he's a legend!"
"No... impossible..."
The goblins who witnessed this had their last shred of fighting spirit vanish like a punctured balloon, deflating instantly.
Fear, like a frigid tide, completely submerged their minds.
Some collapsed to the ground, the stench of incontinence spreading around them; others threw down their weapons, clutching their heads and wailing in despair; still others lost their minds entirely, charging madly toward the surrounding golem wreckage or Ironforged warriors like moths drawn to a flame.
"For the dragon lord! Kill—!"
"Kneel and live! Stand and die!"
The Ironforged soldiers' roars pierced the heavens as their final charge began.
Without leadership, without morale, and without their strongest weapon, the alchemical legion was utterly reduced to lambs for the slaughter.
Though scattered pockets of goblins remained in the southeast, their main force had been completely crushed, their leader killed, and their accumulated resources destroyed. They had lost all confidence in their ability to resist the Ironforged Tribe.
