Chapter 577: 453 To take charge during a crisis



Apart from its large-scale psychic control abilities, no one knew what kind of close combat strength it possessed. But just by looking at its extremely explosive muscular form and those four terrifying blade-arms, no one would doubt this point. The Bug Race, a species that extremely craves practicality, would never evolve useless traits for the sake of so-called face or appearance. "Perhaps, our target should not be these 'guards'." "There is always a reason for the way the Scientific Research Institute names and identifies them, guards simply exist to protect important characters. Maybe we can bypass these guards, and first take down the real leader." Thus, their gazes turned towards the slowly approaching crimson behemoth. "As long as we kill it, these 'guards' will not be feared!" Not being able to break through the defense was just a temporary state, every material has its fatigue limit. Constant dripping wears away a stone. As long as the striking lasts long enough, the Bug Race's carapace is not an absolutely invincible existence. First take down the supreme overlord, let the main battle formation push through completely from behind, a whole army group's firepower focused on these three 'guard' behemoths, they won't believe they can still stand unshakable like this. Recognizing reality, the Mech Pilot from Mechanical Court made a decision in an instant. Through the connected voice channel, he issued orders across systems to the Mech Pilots in the military camp, "Enor, lead your men to hold off these guards! We're going to behead the 'supreme overlord'! Buy us as much time as possible, victory will eventually belong to humanity!" Enor's face lit up with excitement, "Roger that!" With shield and sword in hand, Enor once again lifted his spirits, "Brothers! This is the final decisive battle! For the future of Blackwater City, fight to the death!" "No retreat!" The remaining eight Mecha still capable of fighting valiantly charged at the three behemoth-like creatures without fear of death. Without their constraints, the three Mecha from Mechanical Court would have struggled to escape from the increasingly responsive Bug Race guards. A moment of carelessness could easily result in severe damage. They were key to the expedition against the Bug Race and could not afford the slightest risk. The first one, wielding shield and sword, pinned down the twin hammers with its face, while another Mecha maneuvered behind to jam its rotary machine gun into the guard's forehead. The god of fire roared, and the metal storm instantly unleashed an unimaginable terrifying impact. The behemoth that had not had time to crush the audacious blue and white Mecha with its terrifying strength roared as it collapsed to the side, this was the restraint humans in their numerically superior Mecha could coordinate. Of course, no matter how effective the restraint, facing the terrifying defense of the "Bug Race guards," they still were but adventurers dancing on a tightrope at the edge of a cliff. The only hope lay in the three Mecha from Mechanical Court that had gone to behead the supreme overlord. ... The supreme overlord's eyes looked disdainfully at the three colored Mecha breaking through the air. Underneath its seemingly slow movement, the speed of its four blade-arms almost ignored space and time. "Pfft!" Like a knife slicing through tofu, colorful Mecha fragments flew across the sky. The Mech Pilots from Mechanical Court that had thought they could behead the supreme overlord or at least hold on, couldn't withstand a blow from the unleashed true strength of the supreme overlord. Deciding to reveal its real power, the supreme overlord no longer hid, its enormous body charged fiercely towards the eight military camp Mecha entangled with the guards. The momentum was overwhelming, like a mountain collapsing and a tidal wave surging. "Swoosh!" Beneath the blade-arms, all things were equal. The shattered Mecha fragments scattered in the air before the supreme overlord, an invincible posture chilling to any onlooker. "Run!" The sense of danger nearly exploded the mechanical vertical eye on Enor's forehead, he called Rose to exert force along with him. Yet, the instant they turned to flee, a crimson claw blade easily slashed through their machine. The entire army was wiped out! The sky above was bleak, and on the vast land stood only the four crimson behemoths, an endless sea of bugs chasing the human warriors barely conscious from the Spiritual Energy field. Humans suffered an utter defeat! "We need you!" from among the broken cockpit fragments, Rose's gaze turned to the black maintenance vehicle far within the sea of bugs. Bai E was there. ``` She knew, Bai E was right there. She also believed that Bai E could hear her voice, he had the power to turn the tide! A calm and steady voice rose in the silent command vehicle, "This is Bai E, I request to sortie in my mecha form!" "It's over... all over..." "This battle, we've lost completely..." "That giant beast, it's not an enemy we were meant to face!" "Let's go! If we don't retreat now, we won't even be able to save these last few of us..." Many officers couldn't stop replaying the scene of various mechas being instantly sliced apart in their minds, whether they were military mechas or those from the Mechanical Court, they all seemed to stand no chance against that tremendously terrifying ruler. How were they supposed to defeat such a terrifying giant beast? Once again, the lonely voice came through the communicator, unanswered, "This is Bai E, I request to sortie in my mecha form!" Hamilton's eyes, slightly dazed, moved, as the familiar voice sparked his last bit of hope. Bai E! We still have Bai E! As the entire Mech Armored Corps and the mechas of the Mechanical Court were decimated, Hamilton couldn't imagine how that warrior, who had created miracles time after time, would change the outcome. But some unknown magic power led him to believe that only Bai E could turn everything around when the building was about to collapse. "Permission to sortie!" Hamilton snatched the communicator, flipped the switch, and responded with a roar. "Received." The calm voice responded immediately, and Hamilton collapsed into his seat as if he had lost all his strength. Some officers turned their dull eyes, smiling miserably, "Still sortie? We don't have any mechas left." "We've lost... lost..." "We can't lose!" Suddenly, a resounding voice tried to inspire everyone, as Yue Ying, who had remained calm and seemed to have anticipated this outcome, spoke up from the corner. She pointed to a corner of the surveillance screen. Amidst the tide-like swarm of the Bug Race, a blue and white mecha that had fallen earlier was now standing up again. The color of its metallic coating was no longer so pure, with many areas revealing the gray-black base color of the metal itself; it was mottled and difficult to speak of, but in any case... it was still a functioning mecha. ...except for the cockpit leaking air. The technician operating the drone immediately controlled the camera drone to approach, and through the blurry footage, a vague figure could be seen moving within. "Psssh~" One hand held a black repair vehicle, and the other started a flamethrower. The mecha, which had just stood up after being patched up again, used the flamethrower to clear a large clean area around it the moment it arose. Then the mecha took big steps forward, heading straight for the deepest part of the Bug Race's nest, where all the mecha wreckage lay. A ruler and three guards waited with cold eyes. Bai E, who had sent all the mechas to the final battlefield behind the Bug Race's nest, didn't just slaughter lower-ranked bugs in the swarm. This unfortunate mecha, the first to be hit by the thunder beast's cannon and have its chest cavity shattered, was urgently repaired and fixed under his protection by two mech attendants from inside the repair vehicle. Octametal was tough and naturally difficult to forge. However, the alloy used for battlefield repairs was only a temporary fix and couldn't compare to the toughness of octametal. But it didn't really matter much; facing the ruler's sharp blade, even a mecha built from octametal was only good for a one-hit shatter. As long as it worked, the difference was insignificant to Bai E. The mecha strode across the sea of bugs, easily reached the area behind, and on a calm clearing, Bai E controlled the mecha to bend down and place the repair vehicle that the mecha's left arm had been carrying. The two mech attendants in the repair vehicle, with its windshield already shattered, were yelling frantically at Bai E, "Go for it, Captain Bai!" "Damn it all! I knew you'd return to the ranks of mech pilots! They're nothing without you!" ["Lucky Strike" charge +10.] Bai E gave a slight smile to the two fanatical believers and once again manipulated the mecha to stand and move forward. ```
