When the heads of the two mechanical axe warriors shattered,

 

the parts all over their bodies lost the command from their brains.

 

The mechanical power that was about to explode also dissipated instantly, leaving them lying powerlessly on the ground.

 

Ling Zhan calmly retracted his fists and stepped into the steam-filled Iron Fortress.

 

As he entered the fortress,

 

his vision suddenly expanded.

 

Looking around, countless buildings made of mechanical steel were continuously operating, emitting billowing black smoke.

 

The 'woo woo' sound echoed throughout the Iron Fortress.

 

Dirty, slimy waste oil was strewn across the streets and alleys, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of mechanical rust.

 

This was a completely mechanized medieval fortress, but it was also a city of filth that caused terrifying pollution to the environment.

 

The dense smoke hovering over the fortress indicated that if it were placed in the outside world, it would completely pollute the surrounding area within a day.

 

These buildings and towers resembled the dilapidated structures from the 'Metal Slug' game Ling Zhan played in his previous life.

 

"Intruder detected... Intruder detected..."

 

At this moment,

 

numerous highly defensive mechanical monsters began to emerge from the buildings, their red ultraviolet scanning eyes focusing on the castle gate.

 

What's even more horrifying...

 

Some of these mechanical monsters were transformed from zombies.

 

These zombies were likely the citizens of this Iron Fortress before.

 

But after becoming part of the secret realm, they were killed by the Iron Fortress's intelligent system, turned into zombies, and fitted with mechanical armor.

 

This way, they became tools that only knew how to kill and follow orders.

 

As soon as Ling Zhan stepped into the fortress,

 

the defense system unique to this mechanical fortress had already been activated.

 

The originally open gate slammed shut with a 'boom'.

 

Ling Zhan, alone, was like a turtle in a jar, completely surrounded by thousands of mechanical monsters.

 

If it were any other adventurer facing this overwhelming scene alone,

 

they would probably be filled with despair.

 

But the audience in the guild could not see any fear or despair on this young man's face.

 

He remained as calm as a still lake, with not even a flicker in his eyes.

 

"Mechanical Poison Corpse, a level 47 modified monster, highly defensive and capable of releasing deadly poison gas lethal to level 45 powerhouses."

 

"Mechanical Demon Dog, a level 48 modified monster, with a bite force strong enough to easily tear apart the physique of a level 45 melee class."

 

"Mechanical Butcher, a level 49 modified monster, with a 5-meter tall, bulky body, highly resistant to magic, capable of both melee combat and long-range cleaver throwing."

 

"Withered Eyeball, a level 44 modified monster, weak in defense and attack but numerous, and the beams from their eyes have a withering effect."

 

"..."

 

In the "Eden" guild,

 

the low-level adventurers watching through the surveillance cameras were like experts, reciting the basic information of these monsters.

 

Although they had never ventured beyond the 30th floor of the secret realm,

 

they had learned a lot about higher-level secret realms from the guides published by "Eden".

 

And this Iron Fortress was notorious for causing the most team wipeouts below the 50th floor.

 

Many adventurer teams, upon encountering this Iron Fortress, chose to turn back and abandon their assault.

 

The reason being that the monsters inside were not only highly defensive but also had extremely filthy and disgusting skills.

 

The mechanical butcher's toxic meatballs, for instance, would explode and create a poisonous area lasting for 10 minutes, forcing the team's priests to constantly use their mana to cleanse their teammates.

 

For ordinary teams, the probability of a total wipeout upon entering this Iron Fortress was as high as 80%.

 

Now, this non-specialist dared to enter alone.

 

Despite his previous displays of shocking power, no one believed he could easily pass through this mechanical army.

 

"He's screwed this time!"

 

"Two fists can't beat four hands. Even though this guy's strength is terrifying, I don't believe he can sweep through this mechanical army with just his physical strength!"

 

"Sigh, why not just turn back? Seeking death on purpose!"

 

"Now he's stuck. If he dies in there, no one will dare to go in and revive him. If he's not revived within 24 hours, his original spirit will dissipate."

 

"..."

 

Some were sighing,

 

some were feeling pity,

 

and of course, some were gloating.

 

Just then,

 

the guild hall's door was filled with laughter and chatter.

 

Everyone turned their heads.

 

A group of young people with Eastern features, dressed in pure white robes, walked in.

 

On these snow-white robes was a fiery red five-clawed dragon pattern.

 

The pair of crimson-gold dragon eyes seemed to look down on everything with a domineering gaze.

 

"It's the contestants from Dragon Country..."

 

The distinctive traditional robes made these adventurers immediately recognize their identities!

 

Many people's expressions turned serious.

 

The era of Dragon Country's decline was something that needed to be traced back hundreds of years.

 

Today, Dragon Country was growing stronger and stronger, even standing up to the Western powers with formidable strength.

 

Although Dragon Country had not performed well in the individual and team events of the Warcraft Competition in recent years,

 

it did not affect its status as a world power.

 

Seeing the contestants from Dragon Country arriving here,

 

these adventurers even lowered their voices in discussion.

 

Facing these respectful gazes,

 

the Dragon Country contestants looked proud.

 

This sense of national honor and pride filled their hearts.

 

Coincidentally...

 

He Chuan, Ba Meng, Shou Jingyuan, and Ke Long were also in the team, walking at the front.

 

He Chuan, Ba Meng, and Ke Long were members of the team event.

 

Hmm!?

 

When they entered the hall,

 

their attention was first drawn not to the conspicuous screen,

 

but to the alluring Nine-Tailed Fox lazily leaning on a chair.

 

Her natural charm irresistibly attracted any man's gaze.

 

Nine-Tailed Fox!?

 

She came to experience the secret realm too?

 

Where's Li Chaoge?

 

They looked around.

 

But did not see Li Chaoge's figure.

 

"Don't bother looking."

 

"My master has already left in anger and doesn't want to stay here."

 

Nine-Tailed Fox said calmly.

 

Hmm?

 

Left in anger?

 

Who has the guts to anger Li Chaoge!?

 

Seemingly understanding their confusion,

 

Nine-Tailed Fox casually raised her sharp chin and pouted her alluring lips.

 

"The culprit who angered my master is right there on the screen."

 

Everyone: !?
