Feeling the right forearm of his mecha disappear, Kane used magic power to reassemble it, with the mechanical hand gripping the weapon remaining intact. It flew back up and attached to the wrist of the mecha.
This is the advantage of Kane's skill-built mecha: as long as Kane has magic power, it can't be damaged, and the damaged parts on it can be quickly repaired.
This is why the more magic power Kane has in his body, the stronger his combat power. Of course, it is because he found a way to use his origin skills.
There is a reason Kane named this mecha "Curse Dragon", and now it's time to unleash its abilities.
Behind him, the demigod form's light wheel began to slowly rotate, with the runes on it starting to glow faintly. Then, energy was directly infused into the two magic orbs on the shoulders of the mecha, and the golden energy spread across the dragon-shaped pattern on the mecha.
The newly reappeared white cloak on his back was adorned with a lantern pattern, with the flame inside the lantern burning as if real.
Subsequently, the two magic orbs changed from blue to golden, carved with runes that appeared on the circular golden wheel.
As the dragon-shaped pattern on the mecha was filled and overflowed, it emitted ripples that spread to the surrounding Explorers, all of whom showed the same rune.
Raphael, who had just transformed back from feathered form to human, was hit by the ripple as he landed, with runes appearing on him.
This rune was understood by Kane after using the demigod form for a long time, originating from the skill and the inherited abilities from his father's lineage.
The rune signifies "reimbursement".
Those attached to with the spell have a simple reimbursement: the little remaining magic power within them.
If the mages or support were still in the team, they might be able to help remove these runes, as it's not a difficult job to remove them.
However, almost none remain now.
Only a few Explorers with purification abilities could cleanse the rune, but most present did not have this ability and could only watch helplessly as their magic power surged wildly toward the runes.
Once the runes absorbed enough, they would dissipate, signifying the person had reimbursed their share.
Those without enough magic power would collapse on the ground, at the mercy of others.
But Kane, piloting the mecha, did not proceed to harvest these lives. Instead, he stood still, with the golden wheel behind him continuously rotating, a particular rune on it gleaming brightly.
Kane wasn't standing there to show off but because he had to. It's a cost of using this skill.
Even Kane himself had to bear the runes, not only enduring their effects but also tied to the Explorers marked by them.
However much magic Kane put into the rune, the others also had to put an equal amount, and not in total, but each person had to match Kane's input.
Yet, few at the silver stage had magic power comparable to even half of Kane's, due to his skills and the various equipment that boosted his total magic power and recovery speed.
So shortly after Kane started the transfer, all those marked by the runes, who hadn't removed themselves from the selection, collapsed to the ground.
Seeing this, Kane then released the grip of the runes.
Kane himself couldn't use the runes on the golden wheel, nor could he spread them on such a large scale like now.
He forcibly used a rune meant to be engraved in a contract as a curse.
The magic orb floating in the dragon's mouth was actually a certain kind of transmission device recorded on a previously acquired mechanical hard drive, a magic power amplification and storage dissemination device.
It could spread energy containing special power in waves, with wider spread areas weakening the special effects and consuming the energy in the process.
Now it seemed very useful, just that using it also required a considerable amount of magic to fill the device to expand the area of spread.
Moreover, the rotation of the wheel behind him and the energy consumption of the entire device rendered the mecha unable to move, a price to be paid, needing the removal of this side effect, which Kane couldn't manage yet.
Meanwhile, those collapsed individuals were madly harvested by Kreya and Liruru, even Longbei didn't need to defend, as almost no one could attack anymore, just needing to finish them off one by one.
Kane dispersed his Curse Dragon Mecha, coming to Raphael, who was lying on the ground, still clutching the head of the Puppet Girl tightly.
"Ah, failed again. Indeed, plans hold no weight against absolute power."
Kane didn't speak to him, raising his long spear to pierce him, and then it transformed into two tombstones that fell to the ground.
On the other side, Kreya and the others also completed finishing off everyone else.
Finally, all the Explorers surrounding Kane and his group were dead, various tombstone-like heads scattered across the ground.
With Kane's victory, the sky finally revealed some movement.
First appeared were the portraits of Kane and his four companions, next to which were over sixty portraits lined in dense rows, marked by two red lines through the middle with a giant cross, all shattering. Kane and his companions' portraits slid to the center, turning completely golden, emanating a dazzling brilliance.
Meanwhile, other Explorer squads scattered throughout the dungeon were staring up in disbelief at the commotion in the sky.
The sequence of events in the sky left them unable to respond.
Their minds had gone blank.
Their first reaction was that the scene was fake.
"1, 2, 3, 4... 63, 64." Someone was counting the many portraits just noted in their mind, tallying how many Explorers had been eliminated at once.
"Could the Fog Squad really have taken out 64 people at once? Did the dungeon make an error?"
"No, with such a large commotion just now, they must have been fighting. Now that the commotion has ceased, it indicates the battle is over."
"No point in fighting anymore, might as well commit suicide." So said a member of another Explorer squad.
However, these squads did not know Kane's group wanted all the spots, still believing they only desired the five spots, remaining hopeful as they continued exploring.
Meanwhile, Amis Squad, still hiding, was shocked by the scene in the sky.
"So, did Kane's group receive our information, but didn't run? Instead, they defeated everyone laying a trap for them?"
Hearing their captain's words, Chase nodded and said, "Based on the events in the sky, I think your assumption is correct."
"This is no longer a question of strength; how did they do it? Or did they become so powerful in just these few months after we separated?"
No one answered, nor could anyone answer. They just stared at the spectacle in the sky, silently.
