Skill Extraction: Exploring Dungeons-Chapter 496 - 455: Taking Advantage of Vulnerability_2
According to Horn’s rough intelligence, that camp should be without a leader now.
Previously, that camp supported the fortress, and even the leader came over, so now attacking that fortress would be the easiest target around.
If we don’t seize this opportunity to capture it, what are we waiting for?
As Kane and his group advanced, they felt the observation gaze from all directions, indicating that sentinels from various camps and factions were scattered everywhere.
We mentioned earlier that even if these camps and factions were forcibly merged into one by the dungeon, there are still many tensions between forces.
After all, they were fighting tooth and nail earlier.
In secret, they are still divided into small groups based on previous factions.
Unless necessary, they are unlikely to assist others.
This is why Kane and his group haven’t faced large-scale attacks all along.
Not long after, Kane and his group saw a camp in the distance, which according to the dungeon display, should be their target for this trip.
A camp managed by a descending mage.
A white cloud had drifted above the camp in the sky.
With the Eye of Magic Power on the cloud, the entire situation in the camp is clearly visible.
The number of soldiers inside, their positions, and specific strengths were all within the Eagle Eye’s skill vision.
Beside, Meizike was already reporting the entire camp’s information to Kane and the others.
This camp was indeed as Horn had said, without a leader, in a state of chaos.
The soldiers within were very few, about 2000 or so, and most hadn’t reached their peak strength.
Not to mention intermediate troops.
In this region of fierce conflict, soldiers at various camps were nearly all intermediate troops, even the novice ones almost at their peak.
The situation here indicates these soldiers were recently recruited, placed by previous leaders in the camp as new recruits.
Under normal circumstances, the leader definitely wouldn’t dare do this.
But now all factions have become one, all turned to the blue side. Although they are disgruntled, the necessary rules are still in place, so naturally no one will attack his camp.
Besides, capturing it doesn’t change anything, it’s still the blue side.
This situation makes it easy for Kane and his group to attack such a camp.
"Lucky us, the first battle’s enemy is not that strong, at least it won’t force us to fight a war and then go back to replenish troops," Kane commented sarcastically.
After speaking, metal structures appeared on his body, quickly forming a mecha.
This mecha is the Ruins Maker.
However, this time the appearance of the Ruins Maker seemed somewhat different, with the magic patterns and energy circuits on its body more dense and clear than before.
The aura it emitted was much stronger.
It seems the finger of the God of All Machines indeed brought Kane immense improvement.
The nozzle underfoot remained unchanged, but two larger nozzles appeared on his back.
With a slight jump, the nozzle sprayed blue magic flame.
"Whoosh!"
The speed at which the mecha rushed toward the camp even broke the sound barrier.
"Attack!"
Kreya followed closely with a command.
The troops behind them charged directly forward.
In attacking such a camp, there are practically no tactics to use.
All attacks revolved around the camp’s magic shield; once it’s broken, it practically declares the camp’s downfall.
It wasn’t like this before, but with Kane and his group arriving, things changed.
Once the shield is shattered, even if Kane and his group don’t enter, the camp will be bombarded.
With the shield intact, there’s room for defense inside the camp.
Now Kane and his group’s attack methods have been thoroughly understood. Various measures targeting them have been taken in the camps of this area.
This makes it seem difficult for Kane and his group to capture the camp here.
But luckily, the first battle’s opponent is one without a leader, with poor soldier quality inside.
A good start for some luck.
Kane, driving the Ruins Maker, directly crashed into the camp’s magic shield.
His hand no longer a drill but transformed into some sort of device pressed against the shield, while a huge drill pierced from his back, furiously turning against the shield.
Meanwhile, both hands’ devices continuously emanated unknown ripples on the shield, causing the whole area’s shield to oscillate.
These oscillations became more pronounced as the drill rotated.
Inside the camp, the soldiers wouldn’t just watch, they frantically attacked Kane’s mecha.
Ruins Maker constantly developed various gaps in its body, which Kane quickly filled with magic power, reconstructing it.
Numerous fireballs struck the Ruins Maker.
Though these soldiers hadn’t reached their peak, they still stepped into the silver tier, and all these attacks against Ruins Maker continued exhausting Kane’s magic power.
Kane’s defense generally relied on vast quantities of magic power to maintain because his origin skills had such properties.
For instance, if Kane created a shield, unless you shatter it in one strike, the damaged parts will be quickly supplemented by Kane’s magic power.
Thus, you’re only left with a war of attrition against Kane; as long as Kane has magic power within, you’re unlikely to penetrate his defense.
Of course, this situation is only useful against those weaker than Kane. Those stronger, or even on par, his defense isn’t very enduring. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
After all, the material used by his origin skills is still steel; spending more magic power simply makes it harder.
The essence hasn’t changed; this is what Kane has been considering.
Now it’s mainly solved using magic runes and energy circuits.
After enduring some attacks, a glass-breaking sound reverberated, shattering the entire shield by Kane.
With Kane and his troops rushing into the camp, it naturally resulted in a one-sided massacre.
Very easily, Kane and his group captured the camp.
As they cleaned up, the whole camp started to gradually shift from blue and white to red and white.
