End of Days Game: I'm the Only One Who Can See the Hidden Cues

Chapter 139: The Formidable Mechanical Fiend



The moment Jeremy hurled the fuel canister, he ignited it instantaneously.

A massive fireball erupted, engulfing The Mechanical Amalgamation in its blazing wrath. Jeremy promptly retreated to a safer distance, ensuring he was out of harm's way.

From this vantage point, he meticulously surveyed his surroundings, scrutinizing the utility of the various apparatuses scattered throughout the room. His keen observations led him to discover several devices specifically designed to incapacitate other machinery, strategically stored within this chamber.

"It seems this instance is rather considerate, having conveniently left behind some devices capable of countering The Mechanical Amalgamation!"

Jeremy exclaimed with a mixture of relief and determination, as he swiftly positioned himself beside the electrostatic paralysis apparatus.

However, activating the device required a certain amount of time and effort.

Although Jeremy had already acquired the Basic Mechanical Mastery skill, efficiently triggering the apparatus demanded the expertise of an Advanced Mechanical Proficiency skill set.

As Jeremy tirelessly attempted to power up the device, The Mechanical Amalgamation, now engulfed in flames, burst through the doorway with a menacing roar.

It raised its massive fist, a grotesque amalgamation of various discarded machinery, and swung it forcefully in Jeremy's direction.

Naturally, Jeremy wasn't about to withstand the blow head-on. With agile precision, he deftly evaded the assault, narrowly escaping the mechanical monstrosity's wrath.

At the same time, Jeremy retrieved an array of offensive devices he had scavenged from the oil refinery.

These devices, although primarily designed for refining petroleum in the refinery, could only be employed as makeshift long-range weapons.

Nevertheless, Jeremy was determined to utilize every available resource in his desperate bid to combat the relentless Mechanical Amalgamation.

Jeremy persistently deployed explosives to hinder The Mechanical Amalgamation's movements, a strategy meticulously designed to buy himself sufficient time to activate the electrostatic paralysis apparatus.

After approximately ten minutes of relentless combat, Jeremy succeeded in powering up the first electrostatic paralysis device.

The instant it activated, The Mechanical Amalgamation convulsed violently, as if electrocuted, and collapsed to the ground.

"It seems that those who imprisoned you here anticipated the possibility of your escape." Jeremy mused aloud. "Now, let me put an end to you with these electrostatic paralysis devices!"

Seizing the opportunity while The Mechanical Amalgamation lay incapacitated, Jeremy quickly activated the remaining two electrostatic paralysis devices.

The combined effect of all three devices rendered The Mechanical Amalgamation incapable of maintaining its form. It exploded from within, scattering a myriad of discarded machinery across the battle zone.

Despite the apparent destruction of The Mechanical Amalgamation, Jeremy remained vigilant.

His caution stemmed from the fact that he had not received any notification from The Eye of Omniscience, nor had he gained any experience points. This lack of confirmation indicated that The Mechanical Amalgamation had not been truly vanquished.

Under Jeremy's watchful gaze, the myriad of devices that had once constituted The Mechanical Amalgamation began to coalesce, resurrecting the formidable entity.

"Could it be that all mechanical monstrosities possess this regenerative ability? If so, dealing with them would be exceedingly troublesome!"

Jeremy thought, a trace of astonishment flickering in his mind. However, this eventuality was not entirely outside his expectations.

After all, The Mechanical Amalgamation was a creature of a higher level than Jeremy himself. Such a formidable adversary was unlikely to be vanquished with ease.

The electrostatic paralysis devices scattered around the combat zone appeared to serve merely as a temporary reprieve for challengers. Ultimately, defeating The Mechanical Amalgamation would require Jeremy's own relentless effort.

Seizing the moment while The Mechanical Amalgamation was still in the process of reassembling, Jeremy dashed towards it with unyielding resolve.

"I must not allow The Mechanical Amalgamation to fully regenerate! If it does, I will be at a severe disadvantage in the ensuing battle!"

Leveraging the agility and strength afforded by his own level, Jeremy effortlessly leapt onto The Mechanical Amalgamation.

Utilizing his Basic Mechanical Mastery skill, he swiftly identified the most vulnerable components among the amalgamation of devices.

Focusing all his strength into his fists, Jeremy struck these weak points with precision.

As anticipated, the targeted components were obliterated under the force of his blows, and a massive fissure began to form on The Mechanical Amalgamation's body, exactly as Jeremy had envisaged.

The Mechanical Amalgamation turned its head, composed entirely of damaged display screens, seemingly locking its gaze onto Jeremy.

"Staring at me won't save you! I am determined to destroy you!"

Jeremy declared, leaping unhesitatingly towards The Mechanical Amalgamation's head.

In an instinctive move, The Mechanical Amalgamation raised its remaining intact hand to shield its head, causing Jeremy to land squarely in its palm.

Without a moment's hesitation, the mechanical entity clenched its hand tightly, exerting immense pressure.

Jeremy could feel the overwhelming strength of The Mechanical Amalgamation.

However, he remained composed, as he quickly identified several weak components within the creature's grasp.

With a powerful kick, Jeremy destroyed the fragile devices, creating an opening through which he escaped the clutches of The Mechanical Amalgamation.

Following a series of intense skirmishes, neither Jeremy nor The Mechanical Amalgamation managed to deliver a decisive blow. Both seemed to be at an impasse, unable to gain the upper hand.

Although Jeremy was able to inflict some damage on The Mechanical Amalgamation with each encounter, the creature's rapid regeneration posed a significant challenge.

The Mechanical Amalgamation had the ability to assimilate the surrounding damaged machinery, incorporating it into its form.

To utterly annihilate The Mechanical Amalgamation, Jeremy would need to destroy every single component that comprised it—a task that seemed almost insurmountable.

The Mechanical Amalgamation, however, could not eliminate Jeremy either.

Possessing the Basic Mechanical Mastery skill, Jeremy was adept at identifying the weak points on The Mechanical Amalgamation. Each time he found himself in peril, he managed to escape by striking these vulnerabilities.

The situation had reached a stalemate, but this was far from advantageous for Jeremy.

The Eye of Omniscience had already warned that the longer the battle dragged on, the stronger The Mechanical Amalgamation would become.

Furthermore, prolonging the fight beyond a certain threshold could trigger unpredictable anomalies.

In this scenario, the pressure weighed heavily on Jeremy.

"It seems I can't destroy you here! I won't waste any more time with you!"

He exclaimed, making a swift dash towards the depths of the oil refinery.

Naturally, The Mechanical Amalgamation was relentless in its pursuit, trailing closely behind Jeremy.

Along the way, Jeremy encountered other mechanical creatures. However, these were not particularly formidable, so he bypassed them without hesitation.

These mechanical creatures, intent on taking Jeremy down, barely had a chance to act before being devoured by The Mechanical Amalgamation in its relentless chase.

As The Mechanical Amalgamation continued to pursue Jeremy, it assimilated more and more machinery along the way.

By the time Jeremy reached the core reactor at the heart of the oil refinery, The Mechanical Amalgamation had grown to a towering height of 40 meters. Its colossal form wreaked havoc with every movement, reducing the refinery's structures to rubble.

The entire refinery teetered on the brink of total collapse.

Flames and explosions erupted in the wake of The Mechanical Amalgamation's passage, igniting the refinery's internal fuel reserves and pushing the facility closer to its ultimate destruction.

Jeremy halted before the core reactor, turning to face The Mechanical Amalgamation.

"If you want to destroy me, then keep chasing!"

He taunted, nimbly leaping onto the core reactor and rapidly scaling it.

Without any hesitation, The Mechanical Amalgamation charged at the core reactor. As it did so, Jeremy ignited pre-positioned fuel canisters.

The moment the fuel ignited, it exploded into a blazing fireball, setting off a chain reaction that ignited the fuel within the core reactor itself.

Jeremy swiftly located the sturdiest piece of equipment and took refuge inside. The moment he sealed himself within, the core reactor of the oil refinery erupted in a cataclysmic explosion.

The Mechanical Amalgamation was engulfed by the massive fireball, and the entire oil refinery was leveled by the intense blast. Almost every building and piece of equipment was obliterated.

Several kilometers away, Bonnie, Emma, and Claire were also affected by the sudden, violent explosion.

The three of them barely managed to hold their ground together, had they not reacted in time, the shockwave would have blown them away.

Once the shockwave subsided, the scene that unfolded before them was one of complete devastation—what was once the oil refinery had been reduced to ruins.

For a moment, the trio stood speechless.

They had been anxiously awaiting Jeremy's return, and now the unexpected explosion had annihilated the entire refinery.

The thought that Jeremy might have perished in the blast struck them simultaneously, and their faces contorted with distress.

"We have to rescue Jeremy immediately!" Emma shouted, and without hesitation, she sprinted towards the wreckage of the oil refinery.

Bonnie and Claire did not attempt to stop her. Although their reaction times were not as swift as Emma's, they clearly shared her sense of urgency and raced towards the ruins of the refinery as well.

After all, the safety of Jeremy was a matter of grave concern for all three of them.
