"Be careful. Meal Ticket is charging at him. Don't hit him!" Blazing Angel reminded.
Meal Ticket?
Nine was stunned for a moment. He quickly realized that the meal ticket Blazing Angel was talking about was Qi Yuan.
"Why do you call Qi Yuan a meal ticket?"
"Because he's my meal!" Blazing Angel said confidently.
While the two were talking, Meteor suddenly turned to look at them. At the same time, he raised his left hand, and a scarlet energy gathered in his palm.
"Not good, Meteor has locked onto us," Nine suddenly said.
"The anti-scanning matrix of Meteor's defense system just happens to counter this body's aiming method."
"We can't block his attack. Pay attention to dodge!"
Nine controlled his body and was about to dodge Meteor's counterattack when Blazing Angel suddenly said.
"No need to dodge. Leave the defense to me. Continue to aim and attack!"
A golden light flashed in Blazing Angel's eyes. A golden energy shield instantly enveloped the mechanical body.
Nine and Meteor activated their energy beams at the same time.
A scarlet energy beam shot out from Meteor's left palm and went straight for the head of the mechanical body where Nine and Blazing Angel were resting.
Another scarlet energy beam shot out from Tian Yun's right palm, aiming directly at the main cannon that was charging up power.
The last golden energy beam shot out from Blazing Angel's energy cannon and went straight for the damaged part of Meteor's right arm armor.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The three beams hit the target at the same time!
Terrifying energy erupted from all over the place.
The first to explode was the rank 6 energy cannon in the distance!
In a blazing mushroom cloud, this energy cannon that had just been repaired and did not have time to fire a second time was destroyed by Meteor's attack. The scarlet energy beam caused a symbiotic explosion and turned into a small mushroom cloud. Along with the mechanics inside and the nearby buildings, they were all destroyed by the rampaging energy.
The second scarlet energy beam also hit the target, but it was blocked by Blazing Angel's energy shield.
After ascending to rank six, the Blazing Angel's control over energy had improved by leaps and bounds once more. The golden energy shield rippled like water and actually managed to block Tian Yun's attack head-on.
As for Ajiu's attack, it accurately hit the part of Meteor's right arm that was hit by the energy cannon.
Tian Yun's face changed drastically. A mass of scarlet energy exploded where the energy beam hit his right arm, destroying the energy matrix inside and causing a small explosion that almost affected the energy center in his body.
Tian Yun made a prompt decision and directly cut off the energy channel of his right arm. At the same time, he stretched out his left hand and pulled his right arm down. Then, he smashed it towards Qi Yuan's head.
Was this a coincidence, or was it intentional?
How could this shot hit his weakest point so accurately?
Tian Yun's heart was in turmoil. If it was a coincidence, then so be it. However, if it was intentional, it meant that the mechanical body knew him very well.
In the past, it was impossible for anyone in the frontline base to know so much about him. But now, there was one in the frontline base, and that was Despair Teeth!
Was the Fang of Despair behind this mechanical body?
Just as Tian Yun was thinking, Qi Yuan had already dodged Tian Yun's attack and closed in. The Eye Devil Blade in his hand suddenly pierced towards Tian Yun's head.
Tian Yun stared coldly at Qi Yuan. Streaks of rampaging scarlet lightning snakes suddenly extended from every corner of his body, forming a terrifying net of electricity that was filled with destructive power.
At the same time, the right arm that he had just torn off had once again extended.
Perhaps some aptitude users were good at long-range attacks and some were good at close combat. However, as the commander of the Mech Dynasty, how could Tian Yun have such an obvious shortcoming?
He deliberately allowed Qi Yuan to close in, waiting for this moment!
Tian Yun tilted his head and dodged the attack of the Eye Devil Blade. After realizing the strangeness of this weapon, even Tian Yun did not dare to try to use his head to block the attack of this weapon.
After all, the most crucial energy center was hidden in his head. Once the energy center was destroyed, he would die as well.
The rampaging scarlet electric snakes hit Qi Yuan. The terrifying energy traveled along Qi Yuan's arm and quickly spread to Qi Yuan's whole body.
Qi Yuan's body suddenly trembled as if he was having a seizure. Even the Eye Devil Blade fell from his hand to the ground.
Tian Yun sneered and reached out with his right hand, grabbing Qi Yuan's neck and lifting him up.
The faces of the surrounding base warriors changed. Although Duanmu Longxiang had to deal with Slayer and could not protect Qi Yuan, Duanmu Longxiang had secretly given orders to a few powerful rank 6 genetic warriors to protect Qi Yuan at all costs.
They did not expect Tian Yun to rely on his powerful strength to attack the center of the base and behead Qi Yuan.
They also did not expect Tian Yun to be able to survive the attack of a main cannon.
"Release him!"
A Tier 6 Combat Domain genetic warrior took on an attack from a mech and waved the energy hammer in his hand, swinging it at Tian Yun.
The blazing white energy hammer emitted a terrifying undulation of energy, akin to a miniature sun. Even space itself seemed to be scorched by it.
With one hand grabbing Qi Yuan's neck, Tian Yun grabbed the blazing white sun-like hammer with his other hand.
Sizzle!
The blazing white energy hammer was snatched away by Tian Yun the instant it neared him. That blazing white sun with a sizzling sound throbbed madly in Tian Yun's hand, trying to detonate itself. Unfortunately, it was unable to escape Tian Yun's control. Instead, it became smaller and smaller, as if it was being compressed.
The genetic warrior's expression changed abruptly. He knew that Tian Yun was very powerful, but he had not expected him to be this powerful.
Not only was he able to block an attack capable of killing a rank 6 warrior with his bare hands, he was even able to snatch the control of the hammer away from him.
This signified an absolute suppression of strength.
Tian Yun looked coldly at Qi Yuan. He compressed the blazing white sun in his palm to its limit and abruptly pressed it into Qi Yuan's open mouth due to his inability to breathe.
"This is what true destruction looks like!" Tian Yun said crazily.
Seeing this, Ah Jiu and Blazing Angel did not attempt to rescue Qi Yuan. Instead, they retreated rapidly, increasing the distance between them and Qi Yuan.
"Another idiot who thinks he's smart," Blazing Angel said.
Ah Jiu nodded in agreement.
"Tian Yun usually looks rather smart. How is it that he can't even differentiate between a real body and an automaton?"
"His defense looks very powerful. Do you think he will be killed by Qi Yuan?" Blazing Angel asked.
Ah Jiu nodded. "Of course."
"Tian Yun's defense is indeed powerful. However, he is not a rank 7 warrior after all. Qi Yuan's automaton clone contains so much annihilation power that counters automatons. Even if Tian Yun is not injured, he might be killed by the explosion. Not to mention, he is already heavily injured."
"Coupled with the terrifying power of this blazing white energy ball, Tian Yun is dead for sure this time."
Just as the two of them were increasing the distance between them, Tian Yun finally noticed that something was wrong. The Qi Yuan in front of him did not seem to be a body of flesh and blood. Moreover, there was an extremely powerful annihilation power in his body that was expanding rapidly.
Qi Yuan's eyes flashed with a sinister smile.
There was a short delay when the annihilation bomb detonated. Although the delay was not long, for an enemy like Tian Yun, as long as he avoided the core of the explosion, he would have a chance of survival.
Only by using this method could he guarantee a fatal blow to Tian Yun.
Tian Yun's expression changed rapidly as he realized that he might have fallen into a trap. However, it was already too late.
The moment Qi Yuan's automaton clone was forced into the blazing white energy ball, its hands firmly locked onto Tian Yun's right hand like steel.
Bang!
A red mushroom cloud with streaks of blazing white electric arcs rose into the air, enveloping Meteor and the mechanical avatar.
The violent energy spread out and destroyed everything around it.
Anyone below rank 6, regardless of whether they were automatons or ability users, as long as they were sucked into the explosion, they would die instantly. Almost no one could survive this terrifying explosion, not even the aftermath.
The blazing mushroom cloud enveloped an area of several hundred meters, opening up an area of violent energy in the center of the chaotic battlefield.
The warhammer wielding tier-6 genetic warrior was too slow to pull away and was engulfed by the shockwave of the explosion. Instantly, his entire body was charred black. Under the cracked wounds, the blood seemed to have evaporated, leaving only charred flesh behind.
The mushroom cloud only lasted for a moment before dissipating slowly.
The genetic warrior looked at the slowly dissipating mushroom cloud in horror. He had never imagined that the explosion this time would be so terrifying. If he had retreated any slower, he would have lost half of his life.
Right at this moment, the half-dead genetic warrior saw a human figure wrapped in metal armor charging into the explosion zone against the spreading electric arcs.
In the center of the explosion area, Qi Yuan's automaton clone had long been obliterated. Only Tian Yun's damaged body was left standing in the center of the battlefield.
The silhouette reached out and grabbed the gray sword that was stabbed into Tian Yun's body.
With his other hand, he quickly touched the wreckage of Tian Yun, as if he was taking away some parts from the wreckage. Then, he quickly rushed out of the aftermath of the explosion.
