Chapter 197: So Fierce, So Exhilarating!
Anderson's eyes narrowed. He let out a loud shout as the energy within his body erupted, well aware that he could not allow himself to be pinned down like this any longer.
He charged forward at blistering speed, rapidly closing the distance to Li Yu before viciously smashing a fist the size of a sandbag straight toward his head.
However, Li Yu reacted even faster, instantly appearing in another location.
The electrical currents coursing through his body stimulated his cells and muscles, granting him incredible speed.
Subsequently, every single attack Anderson launched was effortlessly dodged by Li Yu.
The propulsion from the Titan Symbiotic Armor, combined with Li Yu's natural speed, rendered all of Anderson's strikes ineffective. He had never expected his opponent to be this agile.
The battle had dragged into a prolonged stalemate, causing him to lose face. His last shred of patience was completely exhausted.
"Thaer, Gula, Thorpe, get over here and help me!"
Anderson bellowed. He possessed no sense of knightly chivalry; if he could not catch his opponent alone, he would simply overwhelm him with numbers!
Anderson was actually asking for their help?
Despite their astonishment, they naturally obeyed orders. They immediately joined the fray, closing in from several different directions.
"This guy is about to crack."
Tim frowned. Li Yu had not even dared to fight Anderson head-on, let alone handle three more opponents joining the mix.
"Being chased around like a rat, I don't know what gives him the right to act so tough. Just run!" Tim could not help but curse. "Wouldn't it have been better to just stay in the Planetary Core?"
"Why isn't he running yet?!"
Tim could not figure it out, and neither could the other onlookers.
During a brief lull in the fighting, Anderson spoke coldly, "Kill him, then we will figure out a way to resolve Lord Pucha's issue."
The other three nodded. Whether they were ordered to gang up on the enemy or stand back and watch, they had no objections.
The four of them suddenly lunged forward. Li Yu's gaze sharpened, and he charged right back at them, pressing forward with indomitable will!
"He is not of the Blazing Eye race, is he? Why is he risking his life like this?"
"I heard he is the man the Princess brought back. Could he be her mate?"
Tim did not understand why this guy was working so hard, even willing to sacrifice his own life!
'Could it really be for the Princess Imperial?'
'Hmph... What an indecisive man!'
As the four began their siege, the shockwaves from the battle grew even more intense. The surrounding mercenaries and staff members immediately relaxed.
The tense atmosphere, originally sparked by Pucha suddenly falling into a state of senile dementia, was alleviated. Now that these formidable figures had initiated a joint assault, there would absolutely be no issues for the remainder of the battle.
However, what happened next was almost unbelievable to them.
Under the coordinated attacks of the four, Li Yu appeared incredibly battered. In reality, though, the injuries he sustained were not severe, and he continued to stand strong.
The group attacked with their full strength, holding absolutely nothing back. The Energy Furnace on Gula's body glowed with blinding brilliance, operating in a state of overload to achieve maximum explosive power.
Meanwhile, Anderson let out a low roar as his corporeal form expanded even further, thick fur sprouting rapidly across his skin.
The muscles in his arms bulged, and every single muscle fiber in his entire body underwent a terrifying mutation.
His degree of mutation had advanced to the next level!
Anderson roared deeply, his arms trembling uncontrollably. Right at that moment, the control systems of every spaceship in the vicinity blared with alarms.
"Warning. High-intensity energy fluctuations detected. Please take evasive action immediately!"
"This is the ability of Anderson's archetypal creature, the White Light Violent Ape. After charging up for an extended period, he can unleash an attack three to five times his normal strength!"
The other three were startled. This was Anderson's burst technique, one that consumed an extreme amount of energy and was rarely ever used.
The last time he used it, he completely obliterated a B+ class Genetic Evolution Body.
Seeing Anderson risk everything like this, the other three also unleashed their hidden trump cards.
The armor on Gula's chest split open, and a dense light beam shot directly out of his Energy Engine. The specialized engine he had equipped could be utilized as a heavy cannon.
Thaer summoned a howling, azure hurricane. The wind pressure was compressed to its absolute limits, nearly forming a vacuum in the surrounding area.
Thorpe's entire body erupted with crackling energy, radiating a brilliant spectrum of light as he charged forward alongside them.
Their combined attacks struck Li Yu in the center of the battlefield simultaneously!
The very next moment, the energy detonated!
An energy shockwave expanded at a terrifying speed, blasting away everything in its vicinity. The Blazing Light Starship was caught in the impact, thrown into the air before crashing into the desert a short distance away.
The crimson shield on its surface flickered wildly; Claptrap had already activated the defensive systems.
Due to the scorching heat at the epicenter of the energy explosion, the desert beneath their feet began to melt and form into crystals.
Soon after, the silhouettes of the four, including Anderson, gradually emerged from the settling dust. That final strike had left them utterly exhausted.
Gula's Energy Engine was running sluggishly, and his body was covered in scorch marks, having been caught in the aftermath of the explosion.
In the center of the battlefield, only charred, unrecognizable masses remained, scattered across the crystallized desert floor.
A larger charred chunk in the middle could vaguely be identified as the upper half of a torso.
Anderson scanned the surroundings and declared in a deep voice, "Under an attack like that, it is impossible for him to have survived."
"He really died after all..." Tim muttered quietly from a corner of the battlefield, preparing to slip away.
However, right at that moment, the shredded pieces of flesh mixed into the desert sands began to pull together, rapidly reforming into Li Yu's corporeal form.
Near-Death Rebirth!!!
"I almost died there."
Li Yu felt a lingering fear. The Titan Symbiotic Armor on his body continuously replicated, expanding from small patches to a full suit of clothing that covered him entirely.
Regenerating rapidly from scattered shredded flesh back into a corporeal form—this method completely astounded everyone present.
This guy was actually still alive!!
