Four Bladed Gallium Slime!
In just a minute the whole Island became a pool of rancid black gooey blood, extinguishing even the flames. Elias kept raising the Dome and the Drillars destroyed it the next moment.
And the Island became devoid of any useful machine to use.
Kak!
Kak!
Kak!
Kak!
The Drillars descend on Elias' Bunker with all their might. What seemed to be an impenetrable fortress began to crack, and crevices snaked around!
Poor Elias, he was pulling this and punching that in hope of activating different kinds of hidden traps he had deep in the Sand, but everything was jammed.
Drillars that crashed into the Bunker died but they did their job, reducing the Bunker's stability. The remaining Drillars flew out and a plump bird, Screaming Bird, descended and screeched!
All metals on the Island began to vibrate.
Metal with not enough toughness, which was the ability to absorb energy, began to crack like solid clay before it shattered like glass.
The Sand vibrated in different frequencies and the Sound sank deep underground affecting the metal within but the Island Forte shifted curbing it. But any metal within 1m deep in the Sand, cracked or shattered.
The Shoebills Bird observed the mighty Island that was composed of many structures of metals crumbled under its sound.
Then it flew away. Not to the Alpha but home, its job is finished. It never wanted to leave its safe home. It was compelled to come and do this, now it's over!
The Sky and the Island become silent.
The Alpha watched if something would move in the Bunker. Though, it is still standing because it wasn't made of metal only but a combination of Metals, Casting Woods, Sand, and Black Clay, Soaked C, Wure Ashe!
But the metal within made it cracked and fragile!
Inside was Elias, his metal armour had vibrated which rattled his body and bones, and was forced to remove it together with the Helmet, if not, it would have shattered his head.
He was barely standing and his mouth was filled with an iron flavour. If not for the fact that the inside of the Bunker Has less metal, Elias would have suffered more from their vibrating frequency alone!
Kak!
Elias was sent flying back and his back hit the wall. The Drillars are back!
Elias dragged a heavy shield that was more of rock and clay hardened with metal and shield himself. It cracked due to the metal but it was still strong and Elias hid behind it!
Kak!
Another Drillar struck the shield, rattling the hand that held it. The next attack came soon after.
Kak!
Shatter!
Crack!
Elias' bone cracked and the rock shield broke. The Drillars struck solo but each was a suicide attack, dying in the process!
Thanks to the shifting walls, Drillars have punctured it again to come in which they die in the process or their impact power reduced
Those that took a beeline to come from above, the place that was decimated and opened, had to turn corners which reduced their speed. Still, their impact causes injury!
Another Drillar came, and Elias quickly dodged. Another one came and he dodged and struck the wall dead. From time to time they smacked on him causing serious injury!
[Great Healing Trait Activated]
Silence pervades the area again!
The Alpha can see victory but he knew the Bipedal Beast are strange, it may have some hidden tricks. Regardless, through the eyes of one of the Drillars, it watched, Elias was barely holding a wooden shield with his left hand.
His right hand was broken, blood was coming out of his chest and he was having trouble breathing, and his head was dripping blood which washed over his face.
Now that the attack has stopped, he was trying to remove a small metal he covered his chest with and when he did, the chest was caved in, which meant his ribs were broken.
And now, the Bipedal Beast was trying to adjust the ribs so that he can breathe with ease!
It watched the face of the Bipedal Beast… he was in anguish, pain, and fear, but what the Alpha Flamingo wanted to see was 'hopelessness' and it was there plastered all over his body.
That informed it that it had no more tricks!
The Alpha Flamingo screeched and ordered 5 Giant Birds to probe the Island one more time!
The descent of the Giant Bird made the Bipedal Beast raise his head. As the Flamingo watched, he also raised his hand that held the Stick. Then Fog appeared and permeated the Island—obscuring the view from the above, but it can still see using the Drillar's eye that was on the Island.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
[Hammer Birds]
[Their beak was known for its heaviness and striking force, capable of breaking hard rocks]
The four Hammer birds landed with a smashing sound and then they sprinted forward and pecked the Bunker, destroying it more. Until their eyes landed on Elias.
One of the Giant jumped in but then... something watery smashed at its face. In an instant, its face dissolved and its body trembled before falling dead… and that blocked the Bunker entrance!
All this under the watch of the Alpha. The Bipedal Beast threw a soft jelly at the Hammer Bird, that was what killed it!
The Slime, Elias threw, sank into the Hammer Bird's eyes and went to its brain quickly killing it.
That halted the assault of the other Birds, but then the Alpha appeared and grabbed the dead Hammer Bird and pulled it away from the blocked path before it flew away!
It has seen three other jelly things that can corrode flesh and wanted the three Birds to deal with them.
Seeing that the three were not moving, the Alpha commands more birds to attack Elias.
Using Telekinesis, Elias controlled the rubbery nature of the Slimes and flattened them on the entrance. Creating a stretched Slime Veil which caught any Bird that came through.
At first, it kept them at bay, but the more time passed the more the Slimes were filled up and couldn't take in the Bird anymore.
The truth was if the Alpha Flamingo wanted Elias' death, it would have, but it wanted to be the one killing him. That means its own increase in Intelligence!
Finding it safe to descend it dive down above the Bunker.
Elias has his attention on the Chain Chest that was unresponsive since when that King Candidate did something to it. His hope was for it to save him as it always does!
In the end, he decided to buy Luck and see what would happen.
"Wand Shop"
The Flamingo stretched its beautiful neck to where Elias was and was about to peck him to death—a single strike is more than enough to kill him but then… a blade appeared so fast and sliced the graceful neck of the Flamingo!
Elias concentrated his attention on the Chain Chest with Omni-view but he discovered that it didn't budge, it was something else!
In no time he found the Metal Slime Monster.

[It had learned from Chain Chest how to make a strike with blades ]
Screech!
A moment after the death of the Flamingo, its sibling screeched and all the Birds attacked the Island.
Gallion slime jumped to the top of the Bunker, its body moulded four arms of blades and struck faster than the eye can see, slicing down the insane amount of Birds descending!
But… will it be enough!?
