Slayer was cautious, but that didn't mean he was a coward. A coward wouldn't have gotten to where he was now.
Although he couldn't crush the frontline base with his remaining forces, he still had the advantage. He had a 60% chance of winning this battle.
Since battle fort no.9 was destroyed, and the Teeth of Despair had betrayed them, Slayer did not hesitate to fight head-on.
If he could win this battle, he would be able to turn the situation around. If he lost, then everything would be over!
A giant wave of steel poured out from the ruins of battle fort no.9 and headed straight for the frontline base.
Far away in the wilderness, those bugs that were attracted by the energy wave of the explosion slowly retreated after sensing the movement of the steel flood.
When Slayer arrived at the frontline base with all his forces, he saw the entire frontline base shrinking under the protection of the sky dome defense system.
Slayer waved his hand, and all the machines spread out and surrounded the entire frontline base.
Looking at Duanmu Longxiang, who was in a stalemate, Slayer said to Meteor and Furnace of Death beside him,
"When the battle starts, I will stall Duanmu Longxiang."
"Furnace of Death, your mission is to find the Teeth of Despair and destroy it!"
"Yes sir!"
"Meteor, your mission is to find Qi Yuan and kill him!"
"Yes sir!"
Slayer and Duanmu Longxiang looked at each other. The two of them had already exchanged blows a few times, but each time, both of them had held back. They did not go all out, and there was no clear winner or loser. This time, both of them knew that they could no longer hold back. Not only did they want to determine a winner, they also wanted to determine life and death!
Under the siege of battle fort no.9, the atmosphere in the frontline base was very tense.
The Mech Palace was infamous, and battle fort no.9 had been suppressing the frontline base for a long time. Now that Slayer was personally leading his troops to attack, they were definitely more powerful than the frontline base. Although Duanmu Longxiang had already tried to motivate them, they still couldn't help but feel nervous and depressed.
Pang Jiuchuan gazed at the soldiers and said in a calm voice, "Don't worry, everyone. Battle fort no.9 has been destroyed by Qi Yuan. Without its energy reserves, the slayers are at the end of their rope. They are forced to fight us at the frontline."
"Now, all of our soldiers are equipped with annihilation energy weapons, and the Sky Dome defense system has been repaired. We will definitely win this battle!"
After hearing Pang Jiuchuan's words, all the surrounding fighters became slightly relaxed. However, Pang Jiuchuan threw a glance at Qi Yuan who was standing in the camp.
Although Qi Yuan's strength was comparable to that of a Peak Rank Six, in a battle of this scale, unless it was someone like Duanmu Longxiang or Slayer, there was not much he could do with his individual strength.
Even he himself didn't have much confidence that he could survive this battle.
Qi Yuan controlled the Teeth of Despair and destroyed battle fort no.9. He would definitely become a thorn in the side of the Slayer and would be heavily targeted by them.
Even with Duanmu Longxiang holding the Slayer back, the other machines of the Mech Palace were still in danger.
Pang Jiuchuan was sure that after this battle, no matter if the frontline base won or lost, the entire camp would be in ruins. Less than 1/3 of the soldiers would survive until the end of the battle.
Under such a dangerous situation, why didn't Qi Yuan leave early? With Qi Yuan's status and Qi Yuan's contributions, Duanmu Longxiang would not stop him if he wanted to leave.
In the center of the camp, Qi Yuan was standing with the machines he built himself. Listening to the fight between Seraph and Nine, he felt a little relieved.
Outside of the camp, the Slayer's energy shot up to the sky. It created an invisible pressure on the hearts of the soldiers in the camp. However, Qi Yuan's attention was not on the Slayer.
The Slayer was Duanmu Longxiang's opponent, so he did not need to worry.
Qi Yuan focused all his attention on the Meteor and Furnace of Death beside the Slayer.
These two were extremely powerful. They were only one step away from reaching the elite rank. They were also emitting a powerful energy. However, what Qi Yuan cared about the most was the checkpoint light on them.
Those were the last two rank 4 checkpoints. They were his last battle to reach rank 5!
It was also his ultimate goal in coming to the frontline base!
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Slayer stretched out his hand and grasped at the air, forming a gigantic energy sword out of thin air. The terrifying energy waves exuded a destructive aura.
"Kill!"
The Slayer roared and raised the energy sword with both hands. He then slashed down towards the frontline base.
Under this slash, a terrifying light sword that was thousands of meters long slashed through the air. It was like a punishment from the heavens. It landed on the frontline base and slashed towards Qi Yuan.
At the same time, all the soldiers of battle fort no.9 seemed to have heard the call to charge. They all charged towards the frontline base without any fear of death.
Qi Yuan's pupils shrunk as he saw the light beam covering his entire field of vision. He could clearly feel the danger of death.
Even though they were thousands of meters apart, the Slayer's sword still had the power to kill him!
Was this the power of an elite mech apostle?
There was no fear in Qi Yuan's eyes. Instead, there was a strong desire to battle rising.
The Slayer had already used this attack. Not only did he want to destroy the frontline base, but he also wanted to kill him.
"How dare you!"
Duanmu Longxiang roared and instantly turned into a thunder giant. He appeared under the terrifying energy sword light.
The thunder giant that Duanmu Longxiang had transformed into was emitting a terrifying blue lightning. He reached out his hand and grabbed the light beam that was slashing down.
Boom!
After the terrifying light beam traveled thousands of meters, its power had already weakened. The thunder giant crushed it with one hand, and the terrifying lightning spread out in all directions.
With the battle between the two elite fighters, the final battle had finally begun.
The mechanical army entered the attack range of the Sky Dome defense system. Deadly light beams shot out like raindrops.
Energy cannons filled with destructive power smashed into the center of the battlefield like meteors.
The mechanical army was not to be outdone. They also shot out energy beams that were ready to go, resisting the attack of the camp.
Terrifying explosions and energy waves instantly enveloped the entire frontline base.
Powerful mechanical bodies were turned into wreckage in the explosions. Warriors with flesh and blood bodies were destroyed under the raging energy waves.
No one retreated, and no one held back.
Everyone knew that this was the final battle. It was a battle of life and death. Only the victor had a chance of survival.
Qi Yuan held the Eye Devil Blade and slashed an incoming light beam. The powerful energy explosion caused Qi Yuan's arm to feel slightly numb.
Qi Yuan's eyes darkened. He realized that he had been targeted. The power of this light beam exceeded all his previous battles. It was comparable to the final attack of the Uncrowned One.
Qi Yuan raised his head and saw a mechanical body that was glowing with a scarlet light. It was like a prehistoric giant beast that was charging towards him.
All the enemies in its way were crushed instantly. This mechanical body used its own body to plow a path of death in the center of the chaotic battlefield. It headed straight for Qi Yuan.
Even the attacks of the Tier 6 aptitude users could only dim the light on its body slightly. They could not stop its charge at all.
Along the way, the Tier 4 and Tier 5 warriors did not even have a chance to fight back. They were all killed by the mechanical body. Pang Jiuchuan, who had been paying attention to the situation, saw this and knew that this was not good. He tried to withdraw and block the mechanical body's charge, but he was held back by the enemy. He could not free himself at all.
"Qi Yuan, run!
Tian Yun has targeted you! "Pang Jiuchuan roared while dealing with the enemy's attack.
Qi Yuan did not seem to hear Pang Jiuchuan's roar. His eyes were fixed on the red figure charging toward him and the light beam that came with it.
"The commander of the Second Legion, Tian Yun?" Qi Yuan muttered to himself.
"Today, I will kill you first, then go for the Furnace of Death!"
With the Eye Devil Blade in hand, Qi Yuan faced the oncoming Heavenly Meteor like an immovable boulder.
In the blink of an eye, Tian Yun had crushed many aptitude users and finally arrived in front of Qi Yuan. The price he paid was that the light on his body dimmed slightly.
Tian Yun had a huge body that was three meters tall. Although he was only half the size of Slayer, he was still an incomparably huge monster in Qi Yuan's eyes.
Faced with such a huge and powerful enemy, no one in the entire camp except Duanmu Longxiang dared to say that they could win.
Tian Yun, who had almost pierced through the entire battlefield, did not slow down after arriving in front of Qi Yuan. He wanted to kill Qi Yuan with one blow.
Qi Yuan waved the Beholder Devil Blade as the blood-red power of annihilation swelled with the wind. He suddenly slashed out horizontally.
Clang!
The moment the two collided, energy and strength exploded at the same time.
Tian Yun, who had pierced through the entire battlefield, finally met his match. He stopped after being blocked by Qi Yuan.
A powerful energy wave spread out instantly. Qi Yuan felt an irresistible force coming from Tian Yun's arm along the Beholder Blade. His body flew back uncontrollably. After flying for more than ten meters, he rolled on the ground and stood up again.
Tian Yun, on the other hand, only took two steps back before he regained his balance.
What a powerful force!
Qi Yuan looked at Tian Yun who had finally stopped in shock. This Mech King Court's army commander was indeed stronger than any other Tier 6 that he had encountered before.
Qi Yuan was shocked. Tian Yun was also surprised by Qi Yuan's strength. Other Tier 4 ability users would not be able to block his Berserk Charge. As long as they were grazed, they would either die or be injured. Although Qi Yuan was sent flying, he still managed to block it. Moreover, he did not seem to be injured.
This kind of strength and defense had already reached the strength of the Sixth Stage.
Moreover, the sword in Qi Yuan's hand that was burning with the power of annihilation made him feel an indescribable threat.
This Qi Yuan was indeed a human that Slayer wanted to kill. He was even listed as a threat!
Unfortunately, after today, this genius of the human world would fall in his hands!
The core of Tian Yun's body was operating at full power. Just as he was about to launch another Death Charge at Qi Yuan, a terrifying energy beam swept across the battlefield, heading straight for Tian Yun.
Tian Yun suddenly curled up his body. A blood-red energy shield condensed and shielded his body behind him, blocking the terrifying energy beam.
Boom!
The violent energy exploded, directly destroying the energy shield that Tian Yun had condensed. A dazzling scarlet ball of light completely enveloped Tian Yun.
Inside a camouflaged building in the camp, the Sky Dome Defense System's energy cannon that could kill a Tier 6 was aimed at Tian Yun.
The Mechanic controlling the energy cannon looked coldly at Tian Yun who was enveloped by the destructive energy, his eyes flashing with a hint of viciousness.
"I knew you guys would try to kill Qi Yuan!"
The Mechanic muttered to himself. He adjusted the cannon's muzzle while continuing to recharge it.
Ever since this energy cannon was assembled, it had fired twice, destroying two Peak Tier 6 mechs before being destroyed by the soldiers of the Mech King Court.
Today was the third time this energy cannon had fired, and it was also the first time it fired after being repaired!
The Sky Dome Defense System's Tier 6 energy cannon was extremely powerful. However, its weakness was also quite obvious — it took too long to recharge.
Every time it fired, it needed at least eighteen seconds to recharge. During this time, it was an immobile target.
The Mechanic controlled the energy cannon, praying that the enemy would not lock onto him so quickly. He was very clear that he only had one more chance to fire. The location of the energy cannon had already been exposed, and he would soon become the enemy's target.
He did not notice that the violent energy enveloping Tian Yun had finally dissipated. Tian Yun, who he thought had been completely destroyed, was slowly standing up from the crater. His body was charred black, and there were many scattered electric arcs spreading across his body. It was obvious that he had suffered heavy injuries, but he was still alive.
Tian Yun's eyes were filled with viciousness, and he extended his mechanical right arm toward the energy cannon.
Qi Yuan, whose attention had always been on Meteor, was originally worried that he would not be able to sign in if Meteor was killed by the main cannon. However, he soon realized that Meteor was actually able to withstand the main cannon's attack!
"Kill him!"
Qi Yuan roared as he charged towards Tian Yun in the crater with the Beholder Blade in hand.
On the other side, Seraph and Nine were working together to kill a Tier 6 mech. After hearing Qi Yuan's order, they immediately turned their guns and aimed at Tian Yun.
Nine, who was having fun, said excitedly to Seraph:
"I'll aim and control. You take care of the energy output!"
Seraph nodded. Nine, who had once controlled the entire defense system of Battle Fort No. 9, had shown great talent in battle. Not only did she know the details of the defense system of Battle Fort No. 9, but she was also able to accurately hit the weak points of the opponent's defense with every attack.
This made her attacks extremely threatening.
The Tier 6 mech that was killed before had one of his firepower units destroyed, and that was how she was able to kill him so easily.
"This enemy is so strong. Can we kill him?" Seraph asked in a small voice.
"Yes, but it'll be very difficult!" Nine said quickly.
"Tian Yun's defense is very strong. His energy core is hidden in his head, and the firepower units that are easy to explode are also hidden. Normal attacks cannot destroy them at all. However, under the attack of the energy cannon just now, the armor on his right arm seemed to have fallen off. As long as we can hit the energy output matrix hidden under his right arm, we might be able to trigger an explosion in his body!"
"Even if we can't kill him, we can at least destroy his right arm!"
