Fu Qingqing glanced at Qi Yuan. In the end, she summoned Death Dance and beheaded Le Zhangkun.
Killing a spy from the Mech Dynasty like this would be a great achievement in the Sanctuary. The reward would be enough to exchange for a Glory Mechanical Armament.
Unfortunately, this was the wilderness.
"What are you doing?"
After dealing with the body, Fu Qingqing saw that Qi Yuan was eyeing the robot standing next to him.
"Checking if it can still be used. It's faster to take a car than to walk," said Qi Yuan.
Although the battle just now was intense, the robot did not receive much damage. The most serious damage was the explosion of an energy gun in the cockpit. In order to avoid causing too much damage to the vehicle, Qi Yuan even used other energy to replace the power of annihilation.
Qi Yuan inspected the vehicle and found that although the vehicle was damaged, the overall structure was not destroyed. The power and control system did not explode because the Blazing Angel had cut off the energy output.
After the Blazing Angel restored the energy attack on the vehicle's energy core, she sneaked into the control room and pressed the transformation button to turn the robot back into a truck.
"It can still be driven?" Fu Qingqing looked at the truck that had turned back into its original form in surprise.
"You'll know when you try," said Qi Yuan with a smile.
Fu Qingqing entered the driver's seat and tried pressing the start button. The vehicle roared and started moving.
"Let's go!" Qi Yuan jumped into the front passenger seat, reclined the seat, and laid down comfortably.
Fu Qingqing stepped on the accelerator, and the truck roared forward.
After the two of them left, there was a pool of dark red blood under Le Zhangkun's headless body. The blood seeped into the ground and spread. The thick smell of blood attracted the attention of the surrounding insectoids.
A rank-4 insectoid that ate carrion approached after smelling the blood. It observed Le Zhangkun's body for a while and slowly approached the body when it did not find any danger.
Just as it was about to feast, a blue beam of light shot from afar and hit its right eye, bursting it and leaving behind a deep bloody hole.
Scarlet blood flowed out from its eye sockets. The insect beast was in pain, but it wasn't killed. However, it didn't dare to come any closer due to its heavy injuries. It screamed and fled in a sorry state.
A mechanical spider about forty centimeters tall, with a brown body that almost merged with the soil, waved its mechanical legs and quickly approached.
As it moved forward, the color of the mechanical spider's body constantly changed, perfectly blending into the surrounding environment. If one were to observe it with the naked eye, it would be almost impossible to capture its existence.
The mechanical spider approached Le Zhangkun's corpse. From its compound eyes, a green light screen shot out. It carefully scanned the corpse, as if to confirm the identity of the deceased.
After the holographic screen swept over, the spider's two mechanical limbs transformed into sharp scalpels, directly cutting into the abdominal cavity of the corpse. The scalpels were extremely sharp, easily cutting open Le Zhangkun's body, then accurately cutting open his spine, taking out a blood-stained chip that was no more than half a centimeter in length and width.
The spider absorbed the blood-stained chip into its body. Then, it raised its two appendages and rotated the scalpel into a small spout.
An orange-red flame sprayed out from the spout, instantly igniting Le Zhangkun's body.
The flame didn't burn fiercely, and there wasn't even the sound of oil being ignited. However, it was like a bone gangrene, quickly spreading on Le Zhangkun's body. In less than ten seconds, Le Zhangkun's body was turned into a pile of ash.
After Le Zhangkun's body was completely burned, the mechanical spider waved its appendages and quickly left.
As soon as the mechanical spider left, an invisible force field suddenly enveloped it. The mechanical spider, unaware, rashly entered the force field. A series of cracking sounds were heard, and the mechanical spider suddenly stopped in mid-air. Then, it was instantly dismembered into countless broken parts. The invisible force field rolled up the broken parts into a ball, turning it into a flawless metal ball.
The ground below the metal ball suddenly cracked open, and the metal ball fell into the crack. After a few seconds, the crack slowly healed, as if nothing had happened.
Qi Yuan and Fu Qingqing didn't know what was happening behind them. They just kept running in the direction of the frontline base.
Before the annihilation weapons were introduced, the blue area didn't have any high-tier bugs. However, the Mechanical King's Court had locked it down. For the Black Steel Shelter's fleet, it was still very dangerous.
As the annihilation weapons continued to be sent to the frontline, the expansion of the Mechanical King's Court had been stopped. The Black Steel Shelter had broken the lockdown of the area.
"The Mechanical King's Court wanted to lock down our frontline base completely. They spread many hidden observation machines around the base. These observation machines worked with the hunting teams, and they caused a lot of trouble for the frontline base base."
"Under the observation of these observation machines, there is no secret in the wilderness. When our soldiers left the frontline base, they couldn't escape the detection of the Mechanical King's Court. If they were detected by the hidden detectors, the hunting teams would come and kill them. The Mechanical King's Court almost cut off the connection between the frontline base base and the shelter."
"Now, with the power of the annihilation weapons, our soldiers were able to break the lockdown of the Mechanical King's Court. They were able to fight for control of the wilderness, and they weren't as passive as before."
"Most of the detectors scattered around the base base have been wiped out. The hunting teams of the Mechanical King's Court have also been heavily damaged. They can no longer lock down the frontline base."
Qi Yuan looked at the scenery outside the window. From a certain perspective, the Mechanical King's Court was very powerful. Otherwise, the Doomsday Munitions and the Truth Door wouldn't have been so afraid of them.
Le Zhangkun and Black Scorpion almost destroyed the entire fleet. It proved that the Mechanical King's Court was not only powerful, but also very smart.
If it wasn't for his vigilance, he might have been buried in the wilderness with the fleet.
Now that Le Zhangkun and Black Scorpion were attracted to him, the rest of the fleet should be much safer. As long as they weren't targeted by the high-tier insectoids, most of them should be able to leave the red zone.
However, such a large fleet would definitely trigger the alarm of the Mechanical King's Court.
If things went as expected, the hunting teams of the Mechanical King's Court would strengthen the lockdown of this area even without the help of the detectors.
However, Qi Yuan wasn't too worried. This was the rear of the frontline base. Even if the hunting teams of the Mechanical King's Court could sneak in, they would be under great pressure.
The vehicle sped towards the frontline base. When it was only an hour away from the destination, Qi Yuan suddenly frowned.
In his perception, there was a checkpoint not far to his right.
"Mechanical King's Court, are there many tier 6 powerhouses confronting us at the frontline?" Qi Yuan asked.
"Not many," Fu Qingqing said.
"The battle between the Mech King's Palace and our frontline base is fort no.9. Other than their leader, Slayer, who has reached rank 7, there are only 2 permanent legion commanders who are rank 6 mechanics. This is the most powerful force that battle fort no.9 has on the surface."
"Only two tier 6?" Qi Yuan was a bit surprised.
He could understand why they only had one tier 7 mechanic. After all, the upper tier was the limit, and they didn't want to start a large scale battle.
However, only two tier 6 powerhouses was something Qi Yuan didn't expect.
"The Mech Dynasty originally had some Level 6 Mechs roaming around and hunting our warriors. However, after Minister Duanmu lured a few of them, they no longer sent out any more Level 6 Mechs," Fu Qingqing said.
"The Mechanical King's Court must have some more hidden tier 6 machines, but with the appearance of the Annihilation weapon and the loss of the frontline, they didn't continue to send them out to hunt alone. Instead, they sent them to the frontline."
