Machine War: Infinite Frontier.

Near the Misluchi Imperial City, Xiao Yun and others stood on a hillside and observed the situation in the imperial city.

A modern city that looks prosperous. Brilliant lights illuminate the city in the dark night. It looks peaceful and stable. Xiao Yun and his friends can even see the traffic in busy areas and people walking on the streets.

"Boss, according to the information provided by the dragon clan, this country is now ruled by Embrio, who should be in Misrchi's palace. The tall tower building on the other side is the founding pillar. If the information is correct, Aura should be imprisoned there."

Number Four highlighted two different buildings on everyone's heads-up display. The Imperial Palace was located on the edge of the city's main island, while the Founding Pillar was in the very center of the entire city. Both were very conspicuous buildings.

Xiao Yun said without thinking: "Go to the founding pillar."

"clear."

Although it looked close, it still took some time to get there. After arriving at the location of the founding divine pillar, Xiao Yun only took No. 1 and No. 4 with him to continue approaching, while Ling Wu and Yu Jian Ming Ye were left behind to provide support.

The Founding Pillar is more like a monument to the country of Misluchi. Generally, few people would come to this place unless there was a large-scale celebration, let alone at such a late hour.

For the top leaders of human countries, the founding pillar also has an extraordinary meaning. It is the most indispensable core for maintaining magic, so there are a lot of security personnel here both openly and secretly.

But to Xiao Yun and the other two, these Misluchi elites who mastered magic were no different from ordinary people. At most, they were just more cautious when taking action.

In fact, Mana only makes people's lives a little easier. Although they have the ability to defend, they still need to use weapons in battle. Mana only brings changes in productivity and convenience in life. It does not make people very different just because of magic.

During the attack and defense of Arzenal, didn't No. 1 easily slaughter an entire landing team? So Mana and the like didn't have much effect on the battle.

After spending some time sneaking in, No. 4 and Xiao Yun No. 1 started to act separately. With the help of the phonon detector, they were able to quickly grasp the internal environment. Even if they were not familiar with the internal environment, it would not prevent the three invisible men from moving freely inside.

Number Four's target is the control center, and he alone is enough to sneak into the control center.

Xiao Yun and No. 1 went down all the way and finally came to a huge space, a place very similar to the space of the Dragon Clan's Aura Tower. The only difference was that the facilities here were all intact, while the Aura Tower was damaged. This also showed that the Founding Pillar and the Aura Tower were essentially the same thing, and the Founding Pillar was not only a dragon stone energy reactor, but also a device for extracting the dragon stone crystal energy in Aura's body.

In this huge space, Riola was floating in the center, confined in a large transparent container. The huge white dragon seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep and was curled up with several nail-like things inserted into its body.

After seeing such a huge special life form with his own eyes, Xiao Yun still looked at it carefully. To be honest, Aura's appearance looks a little different from the conventional flying dragon. Not all dragons that the men of the dragon clan become after transformation look like flying dragons. There are also huge earth dragons with not very convenient mobility. However, this Aura gives people a sacred feeling at first glance, and makes people feel that it is not a monster but a trustworthy thing.

This feeling is very strange, but if the spirit and belief are strong enough, it will indeed reveal the individual's will from the inside out and affect others.

This is why some people seem to be bad people at first glance, while some people seem to be good people at first glance.

It was like the feeling that Embrio gave Xiao Yun. To be honest, Xiao Yun really felt that the guy was a bit of a dog.

"BOSS."

"It's so big that I can see it clearly. No need to remind me." Xiao Yun turned around on the circular platform that was large enough for Pala-mail to move freely, and asked in the communication: "Number 4."

"Boss, I'll need a few more minutes."

Number Four's actions were slower than those of Xiao Yun and Number One, and they encountered greater obstacles. A few minutes later, Number Four's voice sounded again in the communication: "Done, the control center has been taken down, and I'm checking the control system."

Xiao Yun raised his hand and pressed the side of the helmet: "Can you see us?"

"It can only be seen through the synchronized perspective. Boss, it seems that you don't have any surveillance."

Xiao Yun raised his head and looked at the huge transparent container in front of him, then jumped and moved towards it: "Turn off the alarm first, and see if you can open the containment measures below."

"The alarm has been turned off."

Xiao Yun stuck to the container, clenched his fist and punched the outer wall of the container. Apart from a loud bang, there was no other reaction. The outer wall of the container was still standing intact.

After No. 4 searched for a while but couldn't find any control panel related to the underground part where Aura was imprisoned, he quickly replied to Xiao Yun: "Boss, there is no way to control the facilities below. There should be an independent control center."

"Nevermind."

Xiao Yun looked at the distance between the container wall and the curled-up Aura inside, then began to slide downwards, pulled out a grenade and attached it to the outer wall of the container. With a kick of his feet, the whole person flew lightly under the effect of GN particles and landed next to No. 1 again.

Just as Xiao Yun landed, the grenade he had attached to the outer wall exploded silently. A small black hole appeared with the explosion of the grenade, distorting the space in the entire affected range. However, it was different from the space-time distortion encountered in the dragon town before. The impact of the grenade was just a complete space distortion. A black sphere appeared and greedily devoured everything.

But this situation only lasted for a few seconds and then returned to normal. It seemed that a perfect circular gap appeared on the outer wall that even a bullet could not penetrate, and a liquid of unknown composition flowed out of the container.

However, Xiao Yun felt a little embarrassed when he looked at the huge spikes with special functions on Ola's body. One of the spikes was so big that even he and No. 1 couldn't hold it together holding hands. It was a bit difficult to deal with such a large spike.

"Lingwu, bring Mingye in."

"clear."

After the liquid had drained out, No. 1 took some samples and put them aside before following Xiao Yun into the gap and into the container. However, although there was nothing inside that could support Aura, Aura's huge body was still floating quietly in the air. Although Xiao Yun wanted to understand the principle behind this, it was obvious that his knowledge was not enough to explain this more difficult problem.

Lingwu arrived very quickly, and with No. 4 guiding them in the control center, it became easier for them to sneak in undetected.

When Ling Wu arrived at the place where Aura was imprisoned, he saw Xiao Yun circling around the pillar on the curled up Aura. Under the instructions of No. 1, Ling Wu also stood on Aura with Yu Jian Ming Ye.

Yu Jian Mingye half-knelt on the ground and touched Aura's body with his hand: "Is this Aura? It's still hard to imagine that a human can become like this. The reason why it can't wake up is that these spikes have been draining its power?"

"I don't know either." Xiao Yun shook his head and said to Ling Wu, "Ling Wu, destroy these pillars." Ling Wu didn't say much, just nodded and took action. After transforming, he punched the nearest pillar. With a clang, he easily put his hand in and forcibly pulled the pillar out of Aura's body.

The nail pillar was pulled out, and Xiao Yun also felt the trembling under his feet. He took Yu Jian Ming Ye and No. 1 to the outside of the container and watched quietly.

After Lingwu's transformation, her combat power is comparable to that of a mecha, because the armor she is wearing now is also a type of exoskeleton armor, and all mechas are actually combat exoskeletons to some extent.

The nails were pulled out of Aura's body one by one, and Xiao Yun also found that Aura was gradually recovering in the process. The dragon that was sleeping just now was now a dragon having a nightmare and convulsing, and it looked like it was about to wake up.

"Boss, an alarm suddenly sounded just now and I turned it off in time. I also found something interesting."

Number Four's voice suddenly sounded: "I'm told that the concentration of mana particles is decreasing rapidly, and then I discovered that this tower has another function."

Number One said in a deep voice: "Don't talk nonsense."

Number Four said quickly, "I can shut down the Mana particles... or rather the dispersion and maintenance of the Dragonstone particles. This way, the world will lose its magic in an instant."

Xiao Yun said with a smile: "Then do it."

"learn!"

A series of clanging sounds were heard, and the underground space that was originally lit was plunged into darkness, and emergency lighting measures were then turned on one after another.

"What happened."

Number Four said, "The spikes on Aura's body are energy-absorbing devices. The operation of this place is also maintained by Aura's energy. Just now, after I stopped the particle dispersion, the whole city went dark. I guess the people here have discovered the problem here."

Xiao Yun looked up at Ling Wu who was pulling out the last nail, and also saw Ola who had his eyes open and was looking quietly in his direction.

A gentle voice suddenly appeared, as if it appeared directly in the hearts of Xiao Yun and others: "Thank you, I will take you away from here."

"You're awake." Xiao Yun was not panicked at all when being stared at by something that could be considered a monster. He said, "I was entrusted by your people to come and check on the situation. Saving you is just a matter of convenience. What's with that sound?"

Aura's voice sounded again, and a golden light slowly emerged from his body, just like the scene he saw in the Aura Tower at that time, full of a holy and powerful feeling.

"It's just the use of a power. This body has undergone many changes over the long years. It can allow my voice to be transmitted directly to your hearts. Leave it to me from now on. Please stay away from here."

"Let's go Lingwu." Xiao Yun shouted to Lingwu, and then said to Aola: "Don't worry about us after you get out of trouble. It's best to leave here directly. I don't plan to leave here now."

"You really did a good thing."

Suddenly a voice sounded beside Xiao Yun, and the next second a sharp blade appeared beside Xiao Yun. Yu Jian Ming Ye drew his sword and slashed directly at the figure that suddenly appeared beside Xiao Yun.

One knife... two pieces...

Red blood spurted out, but in an instant both the blood and the corpse disappeared without a trace.

Embrio, who was wearing green clothes, had golden hair and a voice exactly like Cruze's, appeared again, but this time he was a little further away.

Embrio put one hand in his pocket, looked at Xiao Yun, then kept his gaze on Yu Jian Mingye for a moment, and finally set his gaze on Ling Wu who had also come out.

"You are both excellent women. I suddenly have some interest in you."

This arrogant look seemed as if he didn't take Xiao Yun seriously at all, nor did he take Aola seriously, because there were only Ling Wu and Yu Jian Mingye in his eyes.

Xiao Yun said: "I am also interested in you."

"Sorry, I'm not interested in men." Embrio turned his gaze back to Xiao Yun, and his expression became a little gloomy: "How dare you do this."

Yu Jian Ming Ye frowned slightly: "Sir, I did hit him just now."

"I saw it." Xiao Yun nodded slightly, and a hint of excitement appeared on his face under the helmet: "It would be too boring if I could be killed so easily."

Xiao Yun rushed directly towards Embrio, who frowned slightly and raised his hand as if he was about to do something, but his action did not even make Xiao Yun pause for a moment. The next second, Xiao Yun's fist landed on Embrio's face.

With an expression of disbelief on his face, Embrio punched the guy and sent him flying far away.

"How can it be……"

"Is this all you can do?"

Xiao Yun stood beside Embrio who was lying on the ground, looking down at him.

Although he was punched, he seemed to be not seriously injured. Of course, Xiao Yun did not use his full strength in that punch, otherwise with the help of the new combat suit, he would have been able to blow Embrio's head off with one punch.

"Heh." Embrio suddenly laughed: "I underestimated you. I originally thought that you were just a waste who could only hide behind others. I was a little surprised."

Number Four's voice reappeared in my ear: "Boss, there are a lot of people outside. They are the army and Pala-mail. One of them is the recorded Dusk Armed Forces. The others look similar."

"We're finally here." Embrio slowly stood up and smiled. He said, "I misjudged your ability to act and made you do this unforgivable thing. But no matter what you want to do, it's all meaningless. Next, let's see if you can successfully escape from here and take Aura with you."
