Strongest Hammer God novel Chapter 346

Lily sent all of her ground golems into the tunnel.

However, only one of them was at the very bottom at any given moment.

After all, they couldn't possibly fight a Metal Elemental.

If a Metal Elemental appeared, it would destroy everything it found.

In this case, that would be the sole golem Lily had sent to the bottom.

The remainder of the golems mined ore out of the walls of the tunnel.

Sure enough, after just one hour of mining, Lily lost contact with the golem at the very bottom.

Due to the distance, she didn't get any detailed information.

She only knew that her golem was destroyed.

It could only have been a Metal Elemental.

After that happened, everyone waited for an hour.

Then, Lily sent the next golem down.

It didn't immediately die and continued where the first one left off.

While the golem continued mining, Lily used the freshly mined ore to create more golems.

Even better, the abundance of high-quality ore also allowed her to make better golems.

Like this, everything continued for a long while.

Every couple of hours, a Metal Elemental appeared that would destroy the bottom golem.

By now, it had become clear what had happened to the previous owners of the tunnel.

They had most likely been a powerful team sent by the Skysand Kingdom.

Most likely, this had been an operation with several people in the Initial Third Realm.

They managed to deal with the Earth Elementals without issues, but as soon as they reached the depth of the Metal Elementals, they ran into troubles.

They had probably been picked off one by one.

Did they also have an Artificer?

Probably.

But then, why did they stop?

The team didn't know.

Something must have happened.

Lily continued digging.

Sadly, progress was slow since more and more Metal Elementals appeared.

After an entire week, the team only managed to dig half of the remaining distance to the Ether Essence.

And then, the team found out why the last team had stopped digging.

Lily's eyes widened as she noticed that one golem after the other was being killed.

It started with the bottom one, and the trail of destruction was rapidly traveling up the tunnel.

"Run!" Lily shouted from the tunnel's entrance.

Everyone immediately stopped what they were doing and jumped onto Lily's flying golems.

The ground beneath them shook.

Seconds later, a shimmering figure charged out of the tunnel.

It was around three meters tall and looked like one of Lily's golems.

In fact, it didn't just look like them. It looked EXACTLY like them. As the team saw the figure, a cold feeling of terror washed over them.

Death!

This thing represented certain death!

Luckily, everyone was already flying upwards on Lily's flying golems.

As soon as the figure appeared, it looked around.

And a moment later, its eyes locked onto Lily.

That was when Lily realized something horrifying.

She could sense the Metal Elemental!

It was like it was one of her golems! 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Yet, she couldn't even attempt to order it.

And since Lily could sense the Metal Elemental…

The Metal Elemental could also sense her.

BANG!

The Metal Elemental charged up one of the mountains with ridiculous speed!

Kyle wasn't sure if he had ever seen anything move this fast.

Just based on estimation, this thing was clearing over an entire kilometer per second!

Lily ordered her golems to fly as quickly as possible, but there was no way they were faster than the Metal Elemental.

Luckily, they had already had a head start of almost two kilometers.

"Lily!" Kyle shouted. "You have to be the lowest! Trust me!"

For a moment, Lily couldn't believe what she had heard.

This thing was chasing her!

If she were the lowest, it would kill her immediately!

Was Kyle trying to sacrifice her?!

"Trust me!" Kyle shouted with urgency as the Metal Elemental reached the peak of one of the closest mountains.

Lily gritted her teeth.

Her own golem slowed down, while the others continued rising.

She had decided to trust Kyle, even though it sounded like suicide.

The Metal Elemental jumped.

BOOOM!

The peak below it exploded under its sheer power, crumbling into pieces.

It shot towards Lily like a bullet.

Lily just looked at the rapidly approaching Metal Elemental with horror.

Her life was flashing before her eyes.

BANG!

Suddenly, an explosion appeared between her and her flying golem.

Lily's body was shot upwards due to the powerful knockback of the fiery explosion.

The Metal Elemental tried to grab Lily, but the explosion launched her out of its reach.
