Chapter 123: Dragon VS Machine 1

I pushed the three drones away with my powerful winds, and then quickly conjured dozens of weapon-shaped ice projectiles, firing them at them and showering the drones with all the might of my Gate of Babylon knock-off!
Flash! Flash! Flash! Flash! Flash!
The weapon-shaped projectiles reached the drones in no time, crushing them and making them all detonate and explode into pieces!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
I protected Benladann with my scaled body, although many of the blazing metallic pieces fell over me, they didn't do much damage to my natural scale armor… Perhaps I would have been able to take the explosions head-on, but I didn't want to risk it.
After the blazing explosions ensued, the world went back to tranquil peace.
Skadi flew at my side, as everything seemed to be okay now… And Skadi took two explosions head-on and was cracked a bit, its tip was fragmented, but thanks to its auto-repair, it was repairing itself naturally by absorbing my Mana, so it should get back to new in a few minutes.
I glanced at Benladann, who had suddenly fallen unconscious… She was breathing, but perhaps the emotions bubbling inside of her made her mind too exhausted… And yeah, the explosions were also quite scary, I don't think she had ever seen those before.
However…
"Hm, I see. So you can manipulate a spear of ice through some kind of telekinesis ability? Is this your power? Your Ice Magic is comparable to Rank 4 experts- no, probably Rank 5… And the wind magic is excellent as well. You seem to have an abnormally high amount of mana and regeneration… And you're only Rank 2? Hmm…"
"Oi! Where are you!?"
I roared at him, but his voice suddenly came from… wait, underground?!
BOOOM!
I quickly grabbed Benladann with materialized phantom hands, and flew into the air, as the entire ground opened wide, and something came from it!
CLASH! CLASH!
Two metallic claws grasped the snow, as a humanoid figure made of metallic pieces emerged from the underground.
Its size was around 7 meters, and it was packed with many mechanical pieces, hard, black-colored armor with many silver decorations. Its head was cubic, and it held a single camera in the middle, flashing with crimson-red color.
The enormous figure stood glaring at us, while releasing a strong aura of mana, within the chest, there was a gigantic mana core battery.
"As you can see, I am a man that is always several steps ahead of others… So? Will you fight me, or will you fly away?" it asked, provocatively.
Oh man, I would love to break your shitty toy, but there is someone I must protect…
"I would love to break apart your moving pile of metallic garbage, but I don't have the time," I said, quickly using the winds to grab the Axe, Shield, and Benladann, and darting into the skies, my speed was already incredibly fast, and the robot stood there glancing at me.
"Hmph… This is not good, if you don't fight this, how will I be able to see more of your capabilities?" wondered the man's voice, as the robot suddenly generated jet-like wings, generating propulsors and releasing blue flames from within, flying in the air with the speed of a jet!
FLAAAASH!
Are you fucking with me?! If I lead it to Fuyu, it will know that we have such a floating fortress!
Fuck, will I have to fight this thing while protecting Benladann?!
I quickly decided to analyze it as I changed routes and flew elsewhere, without wanting to lead it to Fuyu.

It seems that I wasn't able to see its Abilities for some reason, but I was able to get ahold of its stats! I think I should be able to handle it!
"Running away will only give me an advantage!" he said, as the mech suddenly transformed and generated gigantic… shotguns?!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Each shotgun seemed to be magic-based, firing giant mana bullets the size of a house at me, and they were all going at the same speed as actual bullets from a gun on earth, if not faster!
While holding Benladann tightly into my chest using my materialized phantom, the barrage of magic bullets began to fall over my entire body, bending my layer of scales one by one!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
Each bullet bend my scales until they finally began to slowly crack!
"Alright then motherfucker, we'll throw fists! If that's what you really want to, I am going to give it to you!"
"Hoh?"
This bastard was really getting on my nerves, so I did the most obvious thing, roar like the dragon I am and charge a breath attack, which I had already been preparing beforehand!
"Eh?!"
I quickly opened my jaws while flying away from him, twisting my head towards him, and releasing the powerful beam of ice and wind attribute magic condensed together, clashing against the mech!
CLAAAAAASH!
The beam clashed against the mech, stopping its flight, and sending it straight away!
"This… A Rank 2 Dragon shouldn't be capable of fighting against my War Mechanical Titan!" said the man controlling the mech, as the mech's chest was blown off into pieces, as its left arm, which was transformed into a giant shotgun, also fell off!
CRASH! BOOM!
A sudden chain of explosions ensued, as the mech started to fall apart!
However, it didn't seem to be its end, it was still with enough power to keep fighting for a while!
I quickly sent Skadi against it, while generating hundreds of ice projectiles and enhancing them with wind and runes to increase their damage output!
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
The projectiles quickly reached the mech, as they began to fall over it and explosion, slowly damaging it bit by bit!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
"Hmph… Not yet! Magic Barrier, Gamma Blade!"
