Chapter 189 - 173 Cunning

~5 min read 982 words

The exoskeleton in this world was quite different from the one Lille had seen in his previous life.

Here, the exoskeletons were connected directly to the brain via a brain-machine interface, essentially adding an extended body to the senses.

And this body was incredibly powerful, with signal transmission and processing methods that were vastly different from a biological body.

As the power of the exoskeleton increased, users would begin to ignore the weak bioelectric currents and hormone stimuli of their biological body, forgetting they were still human and instead fully indulging in the pleasure of this powerful mechanical body...

Without proper training, it was easy to slip into the edge of cyberpsychosis and fall into madness.

"Scatter!"

The Centaur Mecha was equipped with a military-grade armor-piercing ion cannon assembled from six ultra-high-frequency electromagnetic energy storage arrays—

Four supply arrays were running frantically, keeping the charged particle jet within the barrel, with the ultra-high-frequency storage arrays continuously raising the power:

These particles couldn’t be fired due to the machine’s barriers, continuously converting magnetic energy into thermal energy and accumulating—

And when the frequency of the firing array reached its peak, the particles would be fired at a speed of 200 meters per second—not fast, just quick enough to see but difficult to dodge!

Boom!

The red-hot semi-plasma shell effortlessly melted through the 12-centimeter-thick warehouse door—

The hole that was punched through dripped with molten metal...

The Centaur Mecha held a gun in one hand and a shield in the other, with synthetic blood and electrolytes still dripping from the head of the Night Wandering Ghost tied to it—

"I’m fucking unbeatable! To hell with your family and to hell with the Chaotic Blade Association, today I’m going to kill them all!!!"

Bang!

The raccoon dog fired a shot, but the Centaur Mecha’s speed was astonishing, and the oversized synthetic material shield in its hand deflected the bullet!

The bullet left a white mark on the shield’s surface. The previously invincible strongest spear had met an impenetrable shield!

V fired a shot and ducked behind cover, "Can’t penetrate?!"

Lille shouted from the other side, "That’s military technology’s synthetic material—you can’t penetrate it from the front!"

The Centaur Mecha was essentially an exoskeleton, just a larger one, with the user’s upper body completely exposed.

But the exposed space was small and could be completely covered by the large shield on the left arm!

The raccoon dog had immense strength, but if the angle of the shot was too narrow, it couldn’t penetrate the shield!

Moreover, the guy in the Centaur Mecha was clearly equipped with Si Anweisitan, reacting extremely quickly and able to deflect bullets with minor adjustments!

It was hard to hit an angle sufficient to penetrate the shield!

"So what do we do? Use your unbeatable hacker skills?"

"This thing uses full neural linkage! It doesn’t receive external signals!"

Lille looked around. The machines here could still be used, they just lacked power. If he could adjust the circuits?

"Jack—see the electrical box next to you? Throw it over!"

"Man, throw a Hand Grenade at the place I marked!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lille heard the exaggeratedly designed energy-gathering gun hum again—

"Dodge!"

This shot was aimed at V, and hearing Lille’s command, she jumped out instinctively!

Boom!

The enhanced Achilles tendon gave her the strength to leap onto the crane, and using her magnetic suction gloves, she swung herself up with ease.

Taking advantage of this brief distraction, the Man team on the other side immediately threw a Hand Grenade—

However, the guy in the Centaur Mecha just watched as the Hand Grenade landed in front of him, then raised his shield.

Boom!

Flames mixed with electric light exploded, and the shrapnel hit the massive black shield but couldn’t affect the Mecha at all.

The shockwave couldn’t shake the powerful Centaur Mecha either, only causing minor discomfort to the pilot.

Even the EMP surge mixed in had no effect on this military Mecha, as it had disconnected all external links and was in an EMP-protected state.

Under the cover of the flames, Jack threw the electrical box, and Lille immediately disconnected the power line and plugged it into the control panel of the Dragon Gate Crane, causing instant bursts of electrical sparks.

The Hand Grenade had damaged the crane’s structure, and the massive platform wobbled precariously, held in place by the safety device.

Lille immediately adjusted the motor power, and under the motor’s drive, the entire platform kept colliding with the mechanical safety lock, making a rattling noise...

At this moment, the Centaur Mecha turned towards Man’s side again, but this time it didn’t just stand there.

Si Anweisitan was activated, pushing the machine’s power to its limit—

But the speed of the machine still depended largely on the design’s limitations, so while its reactions were extremely quick, its movements, constrained by the weight of the machine, were not too fast to see.

The massive Mecha made a terrifying noise as it ran, swiping away the small forklifts blocking its path with one sweep of its arm, advancing towards Man like a bulldozer with its shield raised!

He, Dolly, and Pila held down the trigger, firing madly, but the bullets only left tiny scratches on the shield!

The tension even made them forget to count the bullets in their weapons, pulling the trigger even after the ammunition was empty!

The Mecha raised its large shield and swept towards the three of them!

But at the last moment, Man and Dolly instinctively raised their arms to block!

Bang!

With just one sweep, the two big guys were sent flying, crashing into a pile of debris and losing consciousness.

The Centaur Mecha raised its energy-gathering cannon with the other hand, aiming at Pila—

Finally, at this moment, the platform on the Dragon Gate Crane was about to break through the safety valve!
