Chapter 637: Best Partners
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining Primarch Gorgon—Ferrus Manus, 3 Adeptus Custodes, and 3 Sisters of Silence."
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining 50 Tech-priests."
Yingzhou was very satisfied with this reward; Adeptus Custodes and Sisters of Silence were absolutely the best partners, silence combined with instant kills, putting an end to all flashy nonsense.
Yingzhou felt very refreshed and couldn't help but hum a song from his past life on the way to the Sixth Defense Zone Airport.
"The red sun rises in the east... how I..."
The five Grey Knights following behind Yingzhou heard the song Yingzhou was humming and exchanged silent communication with each other.
Dregoen: Guys, what song is the Emperor humming?
Valantis shook his head and spread his hands: I don't know either, but it feels like a very nice song.
Gadelion: That's for sure! How could a song chosen by the Emperor be bad?
The four Grey Knights looked at Gadelion, making Gadelion feel their gazes even through his helmet.
Gadelion: Why are you looking at me? Am I wrong? Do you think the Emperor's song isn't good?
Dregoen: No, don't misunderstand, brother; we are looking at you, it has nothing to do with the Emperor's song.
The other three Grey Knights nodded in unison, indicating their agreement.
Gadelion probably knew why his brothers were staring at him; they must be envious that he received the Heavenly Punishment Twin Swords bestowed by the Emperor. Yes! That must be it!
The group arrived at the Sixth Defense Zone airport to wait for the Transport Aircraft to land. Currently, the flesh-and-blood creations in the Sixth Defense Zone had all been cleared, and many flesh-and-blood creations began to rot gradually after losing their energy, making the cleanup much easier.
Perhaps they would return here in the future, so clearing it out in advance was never a bad thing.
As for the Transport Aircraft of the Sixth Defense Zone, when Yingzhou found it, he discovered that this Transport Aircraft was already damaged and could only wait for the Transport Aircraft from the Ninth Defense Zone to come and pick him up.
As a Spiritual Power Fluctuation came from the sky, a Transport Aircraft appeared from the Gray Mist. Yingzhou let out a breath of stale air and said in a low voice.
"Time to go back!"
First Defense Zone Inner City.
30 Cyberks with "S" written on their foreheads knelt before a cube, waiting for the Sage to speak.
"According to the combat logs provided by the C4NK5 squad and the panoramic view of the normal battle, it can be confirmed that a portion of this Human force are Xiuluo Holy Indigenous."
"The other part does not look like Xiuluo Holy Indigenous, especially those 10 Metal Giants; the Armor on their bodies looks bulky, but it does not become a burden when they move, and instead provides the wearer with greater strength. A very interesting design."
Data streams scrolled across the cube, emitting a sound of exclamation, and then it spoke to the Cyberks kneeling below.
"What are your thoughts on the Xiuluo Holy Indigenous who have survived until now?"
The Cyberk with "S-64A" written on its forehead spoke up.
"Respected Sage, regarding the Xiuluo Holy Indigenous, I believe that those 10 Metal Giants demonstrated very solid combat proficiency, and our soldiers are indeed lacking in melee combat compared to other aspects."
"We can update a new Combat Module from the combat logs provided this time to improve our warriors' melee capabilities, and continue to update this Combat Module during subsequent engagements with the Xiuluo Holy Indigenous."
"I believe that those 10 Metal Giants are certainly not the strongest combat power of the Xiuluo Holy Indigenous; they must have even stronger warriors!"
Another Cyberk with "S-45A" engraved on its forehead spoke up.
"Also, the weapons in the hands of those ordinary soldiers are equally powerful. According to the records in the combat logs, the Energy Weapons in the hands of these soldiers are all the same, which means that the Xiuluo Holy Indigenous already have a complete production line for Energy Weapons."
"Our warriors have ways to deal with their general Energy Weapons, but there is a type of Energy Weapon similar to a heavy weapon whose high-temperature rays directly caused our soldiers to lose an arm."
"Regarding this battle, you must come up with targeted countermeasures. S-16A, how is the improvement of the Giant Soldiers coming along?"
"Reporting to the Sage, based on the combat data provided by the Giant Soldiers, in order for subsequent Giant Soldiers to play a role on the battlefield while also reducing energy consumption to a certain extent, we have manufactured Reconnaissance Type Giant Soldiers, Assault Type Giant Soldiers, and Shield Guard Type Giant Soldiers, all of which have been improved to a certain extent based on the current scale of the Giant Soldiers, and their heights have been lowered to varying degrees."
"Send the data to me."
"Yes!"
As it spoke, a stream of data flashed through S-16A's pupils, and three scaled-down models of the Giant Soldiers rotated and unfolded above the cube.
"First is the Reconnaissance Type Giant Soldier."
S-16A slightly enlarged the Giant Soldier model on the far left, outlining a thirty-meter-tall streamlined airframe.
The core on the chest, originally covered with composite Armor, was replaced with a honeycomb-structured hexagonal crystal, which continuously refracted ambient light in the projection.
"By shrinking the main body to 32% of the original, we embedded a stealth coating. This new type of Optical Camouflage can deceive seven types of detection methods, including spiritual perception, at the cost of sacrificing 90% of conventional firepower."
"But equipped with an Infrasonic Oscillation Device and a Particle Deconstruction Cannon, it is enough to make the enemy's brains boil from twenty kilometers away."
"Next is the Assault Type."
S-16A switched to a fifty-five-meter-tall crimson airframe; the originally bulky legs were replaced with bionic anti-joint structures.
When the projection performed a dashing motion, the thrusters on the back spewed eerie cyan-white flames.
"We retained 78% of the original machine's output, but increased mobility by 300% through bionic muscle bundles."
Subsequently, the Giant Soldier's arms shown in the projection popped out two Power Swords covered with a Disruption Field.
"The Power Swords equipped on the Assault Type Giant Soldier, combined with the Overload Mode in the chest..."
The blue light bursting from the Giant Soldier's Energy Core in the projection instantly turned blood red.
The moment the Power Sword slashed down, the hypothetical enemy model being struck was split in two.
"Finally, the Shield Guard Type."
This time, a sixty-meter-tall ink-black airframe emerged, with diamond-shaped composite Armor layered like a tortoise shell.
S-16A called up a projection demonstration, and a Light Lance suddenly unfolded around the airframe.
When simulated artillery fire struck, the surface of the Light Lance displayed peculiar fluctuations similar to ripples on water, dispersing and conducting the attack energy along geometric planes.
"Combined with the Gravity Anchoring Device in the chest, even powerful impacts can be offset by 67% of the force."
"Of course, at critical moments, these shield modules..."
The Light Lance around the Shield Guard Type Giant Soldier suddenly converged into a giant Light Lance, and S-16A continued.
"... are the best battering rams."
