The word intense could be used to describe the fight. However, that was only if one was to describe what happened to the boss room.

For Shiro, she wasn't hit at all. Not even once. Her manoeuvrability with her boots were too much for the boss and even with his advantage in stats, he couldn't do anything to her. Not to mention, when she was paired with her Rift Walker skill, she was untouchable.

With all her advantages, killing the boss wouldn't be a problem…

*DANG!

Her weapon pinged off the rock hard shell of the boss as the moment it reached 1 HP, it had curled into a solid lump of stone.

'£$%£$!!!' Shiro cursed in her mind as she didn't have many options with regards to killing the boss.

She could try to rift walk herself into the boss, but she didn't know if she'd suffocate as there wouldn't be enough room.

Looking at the rock the 6-meter giant curled up into, Shiro suddenly had the urge to spit at it in disdain.

"Fine. Since you want to be a useless piece of rock, you can die as a useless piece of rock." Shiro said as she leapt upwards and landed on top of the boss.

Dismissing her nanotech boots and weapon, Shiro slammed her palms onto the surface of the boss.

Metal twisted around her arms as machinery started to form around her.

Once she was done, a device which seemed like a combination of both a drill and pile bunker could be seen.

Due to its size, constructing the device wasn't kind to her body.

Feeling the ache that was slowly spreading through her body, Shiro really wished that she could go find the medicine needed to fix her up.

'Nan Tian said that he would have the Phoenix Pill soon, I should ask him about where I could get these pills next time. While I can't afford them, I could probably try harvesting them at their source or something similar.' She thought to herself while she activated the device that laid in front of her.

*CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

Four legs clamped down on the boss's shell to make sure that it remained stable.

Flipping a switch, the machine hummed as the drill started to spin.

Shiro grinned while she watched the pressure gage increase in value.

Once it neared max speed, she released the drill.

*BOOM!!!!!

Smashing into the shell, the drill tore through the defence like it was wet paper. To make matters worse for the boss, the drill had its own rockets to keep it from stopping.

Shiro could feel the boss panic due to the drill piercing its body.

'Now!' Shiro thought as she detonated the drill when she guessed that it was near the centre of the boss's body.

*BOOM!!!

A huge cavity could be seen with chunks of the boss being thrown across the room.

Since the boss only had 1HP left, its internal defences were rather weak, giving her the perfect opportunity to blow it up from the inside.

Landing inside the cavity, she excavated the mana stone before collecting her loot.

"Ohya? A purple shield." Shiro muttered with surprise. She never expected a purple shield to be dropped from the boss.

The benefits the shield gave was incredible in Shiro's eyes. Especially the skills that the shield provided.

It would help boost the defensive capabilities of any tank that used the shield.

Storing the shield in her inventory, Shiro thought about whether or not she should help Madison upgrade the shield a little. Perhaps even add more skills to it which are taken from her database.

Over time, she had also collected a small pile of tanker based skills that would be helpful for both attack and defence.

Sadly, she barely had any use for any of them.

'Hmm… I'll wait a little while longer until I tell them about my Nanomancer class. In fact, should I even tell them at all? I can trust them now but what about later? What if they sell me out?' Shiro thought with narrowed eyes.

The more she revealed, the more danger she would be in. Until she was able to disguise her appearance, she wouldn't expose her second class.

Not to mention, having a second class was way too abnormal. Having a main class and a subclass was ok, but two main classes were not.

Looking at the 6-meter tall corpse slowly fading away, Shiro looked towards the huge gate that formed behind where the boss was.

"Seems like it's time for the puzzles." Shiro muttered as she walked up to the door.

On the door, she could see a tablet with words etched inside of it.

[Clue: Levers]

"Levers?" Shiro muttered whilst reading the tablet.

"What does it mean by levers…"

Looking around the room, she frowned when she found 2 levers hidden by the walls.

'How many levers are there?'

Walking over, she switched the lever on before walking to the second lever and did the same.

Unfortunately, the moment she used the second lever, the first one flicked back up.

"Hmm…" Narrowing her eyes, Shiro got an idea about the puzzle.

'I guess I need to flip all the levers in a certain order or else it'll reset.' She thought.

However, there was a small problem and that was that she didn't know how many levers there were.

Thinking to herself for a moment, Shiro crouched down and placed her hand on the floor.

Metal and lightning sparked as a device was slowly being made.

Similar to last time, it was a device that would help her scan the entire room for the levers. Only this time, she coded it to only react to anything that resembled a lever.

After a few short moments, the device was created.

*Boom

A low pitched sound spread out from the machine as red spots started to appear on the display screen.

"Hmm… There's a total of 20 levers in here." Shiro muttered with a frown.

Though this number wasn't confirmed yet as it continued searching for things resembling the lever. She'd have to check them herself to make sure that they were indeed what she was looking for.

Out of the 20 'levers', only 15 were the correct ones.

"So I know the one to my left is the first lever since it stayed there after I flicked it." Shiro said whilst assigning numbers to each of the levers.

With the first lever she flicked as number 1, she assigned the numbers in a clockwise direction.

"Welp, let's get to work I guess." She muttered as she started to slowly figure out the code for the levers.
