Strongest Hammer God

Chapter 486 Super Weird

The good thing about Kyleʼs current setup was that he didnʼt have to change a lot of it for his next step of comprehension.

He just had to add a couple of components.

Kyle created a bunch of containers with water, a huge wheel with a handle, some additional parts, and a big metallic stick.

After he was done creating it, he looked at it with admiration.

Then, he grabbed the wheel and spun it rapidly.

”Behold! True power!” he shouted with a smile as he kept spinning the wheel.

The big stick only moved a couple of millimeters.

Silence.

Kyle kept spinning the wheel for several seconds at unbelievable speeds.

ʼShouldnʼt have put the pistonʼs start position that high up,ʼ Kyle thought as the momentum of his dramatic proclamation vanished.

After around 30 seconds of spinning the wheel thousands of times, it finally reached the indent.

At that point, Kyleʼs smile returned.

He kept spinning the wheel, and eventually, it became a bit harder to spin.

The piston moved even slower than before, but Kyle could already sense how the big block of metal absorbed a bunch of Fire Ether.

ʼHeat via compression!ʼ Kyle thought with a smirk.

After a couple more spins, Kyle heard the hastily constructed hydraulic press groan and decided to stop.

Kyle spun the wheel in the opposite direction until the piston left the indent.

When the piston lifted, the cave was filled with shining light.

ʼBro,ʼ he thought as he approached the indent.

He saw a flat disk in the indent that had a, frankly, ridiculous temperature.

As Kyleʼs hand approached the disk, it already started receiving minor burns before it even touched the disk.

ʼThis thing is fucking HOT! Like, REALLY hot!ʼ

ʼAlso, this is just a normal piece of stone, right? Since the pressure is normal now and itʼs so fucking hot, shouldnʼt it turn into a gas? Why is it still solid?ʼ

Kyle opened his mouth, and a bunch of Fire Ether came out of the disk before entering his mouth.

The stone cooled down in almost an instant, and Kyle pulled it out of the indent with some difficulty.

As he looked at the disk, he realized something.

ʼThis is stone. Why do I feel Metal Ether in there?ʼ

The next moment, Kyle took a bite of it, which wasnʼt easy but doable.

ʼYep, Earth Ether and Metal Ether.ʼ

ʼDid I just make some of that Metal-Earth Stone thatʼs above the Yin-Wind?ʼ

ʼI mean, it kinda feels similar, but itʼs not entirely the same. ʼ

Kyle looked at the indent and realized that a bit of the metal had vanished, slightly deforming the indent.

ʼI just made a weird alloy with different kinds of Ether.ʼ

ʼWait a second!ʼ he thought with widened eyes.

ʼAlloys! Steel! Heating! Extreme conditions!ʼ

ʼI gotta test this!ʼ

Kyle quickly changed the material of the piston into a regular Rank A Material and added another regular Rank A Material below it.

Then, he fired up the wheel again by spinning it like crazy.

This time, he didnʼt stop when the hydraulic press started to creak.

He just continued.

BOOOOM!

One of the containers holding the water exploded, turning the surroundings into rubble and throwing Kyle into the distance.

Kyle recovered quickly by shaking his head and ran over to the indent.

He morphed the metal out of the way and looked at what he had created.

A brightly shining glob of metal was unearthed that created burns all over Kyleʼs body as he stood before it.

A moment later, Kyle just opened his mouth to consume all the Fire Ether and looked at the small glob of metal he had created.

He lifted it and looked at it with wonder.

He tried to manipulate it…

But it didnʼt work!

He couldnʼt manipulate it!

This could only mean one thing.

ʼI donʼt know this material!ʼ

Kyle knew all Rank A Materials. So, even if someone created an alloy with Rank A Materials, he would be able to manipulate the alloy since he knew its components and could manipulate their Ether.

It was like the material in front of him was not made of the two metals he had used to make it.

ʼBrah, I was actually right,ʼ Kyle thought.

Kyle remembered an old video he had seen.

ʼNew shit just got made!ʼ

ʼI thought that the Metal-Earth Stone might be the Yin-Metal, but it actually isnʼt. I mean, itʼs not super strong, and the Metal and Earth Ether were just kind of added instead of fused. Metal-Earth Stone is more of an actual alloy.ʼ

ʼBut no, thatʼs not the Yin-Metal!ʼ

ʼThis is the Yin-Metal!ʼ

ʼIf you put metal under insane conditions, it can change!ʼ

ʼI already have a shitton of strength, and the hydraulic press is made of the most resistant materials I can create with the Full Law of Metal! That machine will only break when it is under forces only a Transcendent can create.ʼ

ʼIf you put metal under so much force, it undergoes a physical change and becomes something new.ʼ

Kyle rolled the glob around in his hand.

ʼBut whatʼs the Yin-part? I mean, all the other Yin-Elements have a part thatʼs very different from their Yang-counterparts.ʼ

Kyle rolled it around a bit more and started to frown.

ʼWhy is it hurting me? It already cooled down.ʼ

Then, he noticed that the glob was slowly sinking into his head, and the pain became stronger.

Kyle dumped it to the side.

When it hit the ground…

It simply fell through.

It didnʼt even leave a hole.

It was just like it stopped existing as soon as it hit the ground.

ʼEh, what?ʼ

Kyle quickly charged after it.

Luckily, his acceleration was quite a bit faster than the acceleration of the planetʼs gravity, and he caught the drop.

As soon as he caught it, he felt it hurting him again.

He looked at his hand and noticed some cuts.

ʼThat thing is liquid! Why is it cutting me?!ʼ he thought.

He experimented with it a bit more, and after a while, he noticed that the glob was becoming smaller.

After a couple more seconds, it completely vanished, and Kyleʼs hand stopped hurting.

ʼHuh, so, thatʼs the Yin-part.ʼ

ʼIt isnʼt really solid. It doesnʼt interact with stuff thatʼs not on its level.ʼ

ʼThe metal block was made of Rank S Material, which allowed it to hold the glob. My body also has a lot of Ether.ʼ

ʼBut the ground doesnʼt have a lot of Ether.ʼ

ʼAnd when it touches anything, it gives off all of its Ether and energy in ways other ethereal Elements do.ʼ

ʼFire vanishes when it is no longer hot.ʼ

ʼIn the same way, this metal just injures everything it touches until it stops existing.ʼ

ʼThatʼs super fucking weird!ʼ
