Charles also gave up absorbing the power, and the dark red claws on the arms of the Abyss One popped out, engaging in a fierce battle with several mechanical beasts.
Sparks flew as the claws collided with the mechanical claws.
He tore through the armor of a Ripper mechanical hound with one claw, and with his other hand he reached inside and pulled out its energy core.
The battle was fierce. Although these mechanical beasts were ferocious, they were no match for the absolute strength and advanced weapons of the two men, and could only buy them some time.
In just a few minutes, only the smoldering mechanical wreckage remained in the passage, with lubricating oil and strange biological fluids spilled all over the ground.
Ko.
Chapter 179 You can rest in peace now.
Just as the last mechanical giant rhinoceros was crushed into a lump of scrap metal by Chen Yuan using an electromagnetic gravity field, the gate at the deepest part of the passage slowly rose.
A figure emerged, stroding out with heavy and imposing steps.
With each step, the thick metal ground trembled slightly.
The lights illuminated his appearance, and even Chen Yuan and Charles couldn't help but stare at him.
This is the city lord of the Mechanical City. He prefers to be called the city lord, and has long since abandoned his original name.
Lord of Mechanical City, Level 4 Evolver!
He was nearly three meters tall, and 92% of his body was covered by a dark, special alloy that seemed to absorb light. His physique was so massive that he didn't look human; he looked more like a humanoid main battle tank.
Only through a small piece of high-strength transparent armor in his chest cavity can one see a biological heart that is still slowly beating and connected by countless tubes, as well as a brain protected by a semi-transparent skull, proving that he is still human.
The lord of the Mechanical City was armed with a triple-barreled rotary bomb gun on his right arm. The muzzle was frighteningly thick, and it was slowly rotating to warm up.
A huge power claw was installed on its left arm, with high-frequency energy fluctuations flashing at the claw tip, clearly possessing extremely strong cutting capabilities. A launch port was also hidden in the palm.
On the shoulder, there is a quadruple miniature missile pod on the left, and a short-barreled high-energy laser cannon on the right.
On his back was a huge energy backpack, providing terrifying energy, with several thick energy conduits connecting to the weapons throughout his body.
The legs are equipped with rocket boosters, providing short bursts of speed or stable posture.
"No matter who you are..."
A cold voice, with a strong electronic synthesized sound effect, came from the head of the Mechanical City Lord, whose electronic eyes, flashing red light, were fixed on Chen Yuan and Charles.
"You destroyed my city, you killed my people, you all...deserve...to die!!"
He roared out the last three words, and at the same time, the explosive gun in his right arm opened fire.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Powerful bombs rained down, instantly covering the entire passage.
Chen Yuan and Charles simultaneously dodged, looking for an opportunity to counterattack.
Using the Loongson 9's superior mobility to weave through artillery shells, Chen Yuan's Loongson was analyzing the data of the Mechanical City Lord.
Charles, however, avoided direct confrontation and instead opted to dodge attacks.
"have you had enough?"
Enraged, Charles activated the nerve pulse cannon in the chest of the Abyss, releasing an invisible mental shockwave that blasted towards the city lord of the Mechanical City.
However, the city lord of the mechanical city merely shook his head slightly, and his electronic eyes flashed a few times before returning to normal.
"Hmph, mental interference won't have much effect on me."
His brain had clearly undergone special mechanical and protective treatment.
The next moment, the mechanical city lord's left arm claw suddenly swung out, tearing through the air with a sharp shriek as it grabbed at Charles, while at the same time, the shoulder laser cannon fired a scorching beam at Chen Yuan.
Success on both fronts.
Chen Yuan dodged the laser to the side, and retaliated with the Dragon Core 9 palm pulse particle cannon. The blue-white beam hit the city lord's chest armor, exploding into a dazzling burst of sparks, leaving only a shallow dent, demonstrating its strong defensive capabilities.
Charles used his dark red claws to block the city lord's power claws, and the two fought hand-to-hand.
"Clang clang clang!"
The ear-piercing metallic clang nearly shattered eardrums, and sparks from the collision exploded like fireworks. Charles, the Abyss Walker, was actually suppressed and forced to take several steps back by the impact.
The city lord, having gained the upper hand, pressed his advantage. He activated the missile pod on his shoulder, and several miniature missiles shot out, trailing white smoke. At the same time, the explosive gun on his right arm fired out again.
Explosions occurred repeatedly inside the passage, and a burst of flame shot into the sky.
The three engaged in a frantic battle within this confined space.
The city lord of the Mechanical City unleashed a furious barrage of attacks, relying on his superior defense and heavy firepower. Chen Yuan and Charles used their agility and special abilities to maneuver around him and find an opening.
"boom!"
With a muffled thud, Charles, the Abyss Walker, was caught off guard and struck squarely in the chest by an air shock cannon suddenly fired from the palm of the Mechanical City Lord.
Charles, the Abyssbrough, instantly suffered a large dent in his heavy biological armor. He was sent flying backward as if struck by a giant hammer, crashing into a metal wall before finally coming to a stop, unable to get up.
"flaw!"
Chen Yuan's eyes flashed with cold light as he seized the opportunity to counterattack, opening all the weapon ports on the back of the Loongson 9.
Pulse particle cannon.
Shoulder-mounted patrol rounds.
Quantum pulses to the eye...
All firepower was instantly unleashed on the city lord of the mechanical city.
"Boom boom boom boom!!!"
The violent explosion completely engulfed the city lord of the mechanical city, and flames and thick smoke swallowed him up.
However, as the smoke cleared slightly, the city lord's figure still stood. His armor was severely damaged, with black smoke billowing from many places, and even his power claws had lost several fingers, but his core was not seriously damaged.
Moreover, he took this opportunity to retreat to an area close to the core energy reactor of the Mechanical City base.
"You all must die!"
The city lord of the mechanical city shouted, and the thick energy conduits behind him suddenly lit up, frantically drawing core energy from the reactor like blood vessels.
His damaged body was rapidly repaired by a liquid metal, and his aura rose instead of falling, instantly breaking through a certain threshold and faintly breaking through to the fifth level of evolution...
The terrifying energy fluctuations caused the entire, nearly collapsed passageway to tremble.
Electromagnetic gravitational field... Maximum power activated.
With Loongson 9 operating at full capacity, the electromagnetic gravity field was no longer suppressed in an area, but was highly focused on the city lord of the Mechanical City.
A visible spatial distortion instantly enveloped the city lord of the mechanical city, causing his attack, which he was about to launch, to abruptly halt, as if he had sunk into an invisible quagmire, making it difficult for him to move forward.
Even the king-level energy fluctuations were forcibly suppressed by this terrifying gravity.
"what?"
At this moment, the city lord of the mechanical city looked utterly horrified, feeling as if he were being crushed by an entire mountain. Every movement required a great deal of energy, and the armor on his body seemed to be deformed under the pressure.
Just then, Charles, who had stood up again, saw an opportunity. The red light in the V-shaped slits of the Abyss was flashing wildly, and the scarlet energy conduits behind him were brighter than ever before.
He poured all his remaining strength, even his life essence, into the dark red claws on his right arm.
"You'll die too!"
Charles roared, and the Abyss Walker, like a blood-red meteor, approached the City Lord of the Mechanical City despite the terrifying gravity field, striking out with a claw towards the opponent's semi-transparent skull armor.
The city lord tried to block, but under the suppression of the gravitational field, his movements were more than a beat too slow.
"Crack!"
The dark red claws, covered in high-frequency vibrational energy, smashed through the sturdy transparent armor and struck the brain, which was immersed in nutrient solution.
"Uh ah ah..."
The city lord of the mechanical city let out a shrill scream that was not synthesized electronically, but rather originated from biological instinct.
Almost simultaneously, all of Chen Yuan's weapons were recharged.
"You can rest in peace now!"
Pulse particle cannon.
Freezing rays.
Quantum pulse...
All the strongest attacks, like the light of judgment, instantly engulfed the city lord's body.
"boom!!!!"
The deafening explosion swept through the entire core passage and caused the core energy reactor to explode. Even Charles and Chen Yuan, who were protected by shields, were blown away.
When the light faded, all that remained was a charred crater, scattered mechanical wreckage emitting blue smoke, and fragments of biological tissue.
The pierced brain had already been completely vaporized in the subsequent attacks.
Chapter 180 The Origin of the Mechanical City
Lord of the Mechanical City, Level 4 Evolver.
He perished there, utterly and irrevocably dead.
The collapsed passage was deathly silent, save for the crackling sound of leaking energy and the faint sound of an alarm in the distance.
Charles knelt on one knee. The Abyss's body was covered in wounds, with black biological slime constantly seeping out in an attempt to repair itself. He was also panting heavily, clearly exhausted.
Chen Yuan landed slowly, the surface of the Loongson 9 suit shimmering slightly as he calmly gazed at the ruins before him.
He looked at Charles, the Abyss Walker, in his disheveled state, and a cold, electronic voice sounded, devoid of any concern, more like stating a fact:
"If you keep going like this, you'll die very easily..."
Charles abruptly raised his head, the red light in his V-shaped eyes flickering with a hint of arrogance and madness, and laughed, "Cough cough... at least I'm not dead yet, and..."
He struggled to stand up straight, and the crimson energy tentacles on the back of the Abyssman stretched out and swayed unconsciously. "My armor can absorb the life essence of others to restore itself. As long as there are living things in this world, it's hard for me to die."
Chen Yuan paused for a moment, his gaze beneath the mask seemingly scrutinizing him, before finally offering a nonchalant assessment: "You sound more like a Devouring Beast."
Charles's maniacal smile hadn't faded yet, and he was just about to say something when...
