Strongest Hammer God novel Chapter 53

Chapter 53 - 53 – Black Ore

After a while, Kyle reached another intersection.

'You really want to push me down the Spirit Spring Ore tunnel, huh?' he thought as he looked at the tunnel covered with Spirit Spring Ore.

However, he just ignored that tunnel again.

'Well, guess I'm stuck with the mysterious black ore this time,' Kyle thought as he looked at the only other available tunnel.

He shrugged and walked down the tunnel with the black ore.

This time, he wasn't surprised when the wall closed behind him.

Before focusing on the ore, Kyle took a peek around the bend to see what was waiting for him.

When he saw a dead end, he blinked a couple of times in surprise.

'That's bad, right?' he thought.

He walked to the dead end and touched it.

'Seems to be made of the same kind of stone as the closing walls. Not sure if I can get through that.'

'Well, I should look at the black ore first.' _{fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com}

Kyle walked back and approached the first crystal of black ore.

'Let's see what you do.'

Kyle rammed his hammer into the ore.

BOOOOOM!

And the ore exploded, throwing Kyle against the wall behind him.

His head once again met stone, but Kyle was too disoriented to care about that right now.

His ears were ringing, and he just tried to look around.

The explosion had made quite a sizable hole in the wall, revealing more stone.

Kyle sighed once and stood up. 'Gotta be more careful.'

Next, Kyle slowly touched the ore and used his Soul to investigate it.

Cold sweat ran down his back when he felt its power.

'I think my hammer absorbed most of its Ether before it exploded. If that thing explodes right in front of me with its full power, I will probably get severely injured.'

'Note for the future: investigate new ore before blindly striking it. You have a strong Soul for a reason!'

Kyle carefully inspected the ore, making sure that he didn't do anything to make it explode.

The more he felt it, the more it felt like a bomb ready to go off.

'Maybe this is like Basic Mage Stone? Let's try the diffuser.'

Kyle carefully moved backward and slowly moved his diffuser to the ore.

'Careful!' he thought with closed eyes.

BOOOOM!

The ore exploded as soon as the diffuser hit it.

While the hammer hadn't absorbed any of its Ether this time, Kyle had been almost two meters away from it and had braced for an impact.

He was thrown back by the explosion, but his arms protected his head.

His ears rang again, and it took a while for him to recover.

'Ouch,' he thought as he stood up again, his ears still ringing.

'Maybe I should use the compressor?' he thought, retrieving another gadget.

BOOOOM!

Once again, it exploded.

'Okay, you know what? Fuck this ore! This thing is way too aggressive and reminds me of my ex!'

'Seriously, say one wrong thing and watch her scream at you for hours!'

'Fuck this ore and fuck my ex! If you want to stick your dick in a meat grinder, you are free to take my words literally!'

But then, Kyle got an idea.

'That could work!'

He carefully removed several pieces of the black ore and transported them to the dead end.

When he saw the pile of five pieces, he gulped nervously.
