Chapter 327: The Burning Night
After just a few minutes of battle, the base was engulfed in flames.
Amidst the flickering fire, mechas and giant beasts clashed, metal and flesh collided, and the struggle between humans and massive creatures was only just beginning.
Facing the lower-ranking giant beasts, the mecha squad’s rifles, cannons, missiles, and beams never ceased firing.
As the artillery rained down, with the assistance of computers, each shot hit its target with exceptional precision. Data corrections from the intelligent AI ensured that the margin of error for various types of artillery fire was basically within 1 meter.
On giant beasts averaging a height of over a hundred meters, such a small error could be easily overlooked.
Amidst the intense barrage, lower-ranking giant beasts continually fell in their charge, their spilled blood pooling together like small rivers rapidly flooding the ground and seeping into the base.
The air was filled with a large amount of “blood poison,” forcing other ground personnel to wear helmets or gas masks.
People moved through the smoke of explosions. In such a battlefield, even regular tanks were of little use, let alone humans.
Leaving the base without giving the Mecha Masters any trouble is the greatest help.
If lower rank giant beasts are easy to deal with, then a group of middle rank giant beasts can be quite troublesome. Especially when there are a few upper rank ones in the mix!
Gluttony, Spiraling Tortoise, Ragnarok, Kumquat Snake, Rocking Cow…
These intelligent middle rank giant beasts don’t just blindly charge forward into gunfire. They hide among the lower rank beasts, use invisibility, or have thick armor to protect themselves.
They make the most of their strengths, using the lower rank beasts as cover until they get close to the Mecha group and strike.
Gluttony absorbs a large amount of gunfire with ‘Gluttony’ before returning it to the Mecha, bombarding them fiercely before they can react.
Spiraling Tortoise burrows underground and suddenly attacks from beneath the Mecha’s feet, or digs a hole under them to make the Mecha fall.
Ragnarok controls many vines to entangle the Mecha, Kumquat Snake puts the Mecha Masters into an unforeseen dream, Rocking Cow causes various malfunctions in the Mecha with thunder strikes…
When those upper rank giant beasts join the battle, the pressure on the base increases significantly.
‘White Dragon’ used a shield to block a Tanuki Power attack, aimed the ‘Izzy’ cannon on its shoulder at a buffalo-shaped Siox for constant bombings, and the sword ‘Flying Cloud’ released invisible ripples, cutting off the left wing of a Gudiao diving from the sky.
In the cockpit, Luo Yan calmly controlled the mecha, attacking while also paying attention to the battlefield and protecting teammates in time.
Under the cooperation of five mechas from Class Three, Team Four, the position they were in has not been taken over by giant beasts.
At this moment, Changping Army Group’s Lu Shihan’s voice came through the public channel, “This won’t work, there are too many giant beasts.”
“Captain Di, leave this to us to handle, you go with Guangling to kill The Lord of the Forbidden Area!”
Di Zheng responded immediately without hesitation, “Alright, Captain Lv, you must hold on.”
He then ordered, “Activate Phase Two Plan!”
“Class Three, Team Four, follow me.”
“The rest of you stay at the base, assist Changping Army Group, Liang Jian, you take command!”
After the order was given.
There were loud whistles from the base behind, drones took off and flew towards the forbidden zone.
These drones were all carrying aerial bombs containing incendiary agents, these bombs almost emptied the inventory of Guangling, and with the current production capacity, it would be difficult to produce enough to bomb the entire forbidden zone in a short time.
If it weren’t for the sudden change in the forbidden zone this time, no matter how Guangling acted, they wouldn’t easily use these incendiary bombs.
Now, drones loaded with aerial bombs flew into the sky, and some giant beasts with flying abilities in the sky immediately began to intercept them.
Mechas on the ground immediately launched attacks, disrupting those giant beasts and preventing them from achieving their goals.
In the tug-of-war between the two sides, only two drones were shot down, the rest of the drones flew smoothly towards the forbidden zone, speeding through the misty sky.
Then, according to the plan, the drones orderly dropped one aerial bomb after another.
A moment later.
In the mecha, Luo Yan suddenly saw a bright light ahead, with colorful flames bursting in the direction of the forbidden zone.
Then, flames continued to rise and spread in the sky, forming a wave of fire moving towards the depths of the forbidden zone.
“Let’s go!”
Di Zheng’s voice sounded over the communication channel.
The mecha named ‘Mystical Wing’ rushed forward with a shield, pushing aside giant beasts blocking the path, creating a clear passage for the other mechas behind.
Luo Yan and the others controlled their mechas, following behind the ‘Mystical Wing,’ darting out between the giant beasts, through explosions and smoke.
Breaking out of the base.
Outside the base, they could see that the mist in the forbidden zone had been cleared out by previous bombings and fires.
The forests surrounding the forbidden zone were burning, with flames and thick smoke dancing together. Some giant beasts that hadn’t escaped the forbidden zone were on fire, running around wildly before collapsing and not moving.
Led by the ‘Mystical Wing’, the Guangling Legion’s mechas swiftly passed through the burning forest, quickly venturing deep into the forbidden area within the flames.
With the mist gone, Misty Canyon had never been as clear as it was now, and most of the giant beasts had already left the base, so Luo Yan and his team passed through without any obstacles.
At this moment, the drones had already begun to return, whistling as they flew over the mechas’ heads, signaling the completion of the second phase of the plan.
Now, it’s time for the third phase.
According to the original plan, Captains Di Zheng and Lu Shihan were supposed to lead their teams deep into the forbidden area to slay the master of the forbidden land.
However, due to the giant beasts attacking the base, only Di Zheng and Team Four could now complete this mission.
Passing through the forest, crossing the plains, and entering the canyon.
Finally, deep within the canyon, looking through the panoramic window, Luo Yan saw massive piles of bones stacked together, forming a city-sized mound.
Bai Chou whispered over the communication channel, “So many bones, how many giant beast bones must there be to create such a scale.”
No one can answer this question.
Soon, the mecha team entered a maze built from the bones of giant beasts. As they walked, Luo Yan noticed signs of bombing in the area.
Many bones were shattered from the explosions, scattering bones of all sizes on the ground, mixed with black soil.
The deeper they went, the fewer signs of destruction there were. After walking for a while, almost no traces of explosions could be seen.
When the mecha turned a corner from the passage out of the bone pile, a clearing appeared in front of Luo Yan and the others.
In the clearing stood a small mountain-like black crystal.
Youyin!
Next to this Youyin, there were many black, man-eating plant-like organisms, almost taking over the entire clearing.
These black plants had tightly closed petals, which were large and jet black in color.
But sometimes they open their petals, then you can see that inside these plants are red, and the inner side of the petals actually have sharp teeth, and from the buds, there are tendrils like flower cores.
