Chapter 423

"What are you yelling about? What super expert?"

"Hiss, it really is a great expert. With this kind of strength, I'm afraid even an official mech pilot couldn't do it. Could it be an elite-level mech bigwig?"

"Who are you talking about? Where are they? Let me see too!"

"What's going on? Are my eyes playing tricks on me, or have you all gone crazy? Are you talking about an Earth Dragon basic-type mech?"

"Looking at the exterior, it really is an Earth Dragon, but this kind of performance is no basic model. I'm afraid it's a custom mech that has undergone massive internal modifications, just resembling the 'Earth Dragon Type I' on the outside."

In the instance communication group, a burst of intense conversation erupted; some were shocked and shouting, while others simply didn't believe it.

At this time, Wang Yu, supported by his terrifying mind power, had synchronized his own nerves with the mech to an extremely high degree, actually reaching a level approximating human-machine unity, pushing the performance of this Earth Dragon Type I mech to the limit.

The black mech, which should have been unusually clumsy, was now moving like the wind, with extraordinary agility. It jumped seven or eight meters high, and the golden serrated blade in its hand, wrapped in a strand of mind power, was swung as lightly as a feather, becoming a blur that could not be captured by the naked eye.

With the black mech performing so extraordinarily, the nearby Pheasant Beasts couldn't block a single blade.

Wherever the golden cold light flashed, all the Nebula Beasts were cut in two before they could even get close, unable to make any attacks.

Just then, a sharp cry came from the rear of the beast horde, and a white sonic boom shockwave swept across half the battlefield.

Whether Pheasant Beasts or human mechs, after the sound wave rolled over, they all swayed and stood unsteadily; some mechs with weaker shells even had black smoke rising from their joints.

Those smallest drones, the moment they touched the sound wave, turned into fireballs and burst apart, and the Pheasant Beasts at high altitude also fell to the ground one after another.

For a time, the entire battlefield sky, except for that giant spaceship, was emptied.

Wang Yu, inside the mech, his whole body covered in mind power, also felt a buzzing in his ears, as if his brain had been suddenly pricked by something sharp. After a flash of coldness in his eyes, he held the golden serrated blade horizontally in front of the mech and looked through the mech window toward the rear of the beast horde where the sharp cry had originated.

This sound wave was nothing, but the terrifying mental power contained within the sound wave was truly not weak, almost no less than a three-star mind power master.

Almost at the same time, a ball of golden light took to the air from the rear of the beast horde.

In the golden light, a mini Pheasant Beast, with a body entirely of brilliant golden light, only one-third the size of other Pheasant Beasts, and wearing a high golden crown on its head, was flapping its wings and rushing toward the giant spaceship.

"Pheasant Beast Leader."

"What's going on? Doesn't the leader usually only appear in the last ten minutes? Why is it out now?"

"I don't know. Did someone change the plot and make the boss appear early?"

"What do we do now?"

"What are you thinking? One word: 'Fight.' It's just a game, who's afraid of whom!"

In the instance communication group, the numerous players also exploded.

"Whooshing sounds" erupted, and indeed, over a dozen mechs immediately leaped into the air, directly meeting the golden Pheasant Beast opposite them.

In the minds of ordinary players, "Star River" was just a game, so naturally, it was impossible to have any fear.

The next moment, another sharp cry came from the direction of the golden Pheasant Beast, and another large white sonic wave swept across.

At such close range, most of the mechs flying toward the golden Pheasant Beast fell down smoking, and the remaining ones also became top-heavy, stumbling, looking completely unable to fly normally anymore.

At this time, the mechs on the ground with long-range attacks either pulled out giant firearms or activated the floating cannons on their shoulders, spraying a rainstorm of bullets and dense beams at the golden Pheasant Beast in the air.

But the Pheasant Beast leader in the air just spread its wings.

"Puff," a sound.

A layer of white hazy light shield bloomed from within its body, continuously expanding like a balloon being blown up, and in the blink of an eye, it became as large as a building.

The various attacks from the ground landed on the white light shield; physical objects like bullets were all bounced off, while energy attacks like beams directly dissipated and vanished, unable to shake the light shield in the slightest.

"Why did the Pheasant Beast leader release its force field barrier right from the start!"

"Everyone pay attention, this thing is very hard. Ordinary attacks are completely ineffective; only attacks from elite-level mechs can have some effect, and only star-level mech pilots can normally contend with it."

"Are you kidding? How could our ragtag teams have elite-level mech pilots? I'm afraid there aren't even many official mech pilots."

"Those who cleared this instance before were all dragging this Pheasant Beast leader along, relying on the time running out to clear it. Now that the Pheasant Beast leader has appeared so early, we definitely won't be able to clear it this time. Just wait for total annihilation."

The mechs on the battlefield outside continued to attack this so-called "force field barrier" without stopping, while various wails sounded in the instance communication group.

They weren't lamenting the inability to clear the instance, but rather that with total annihilation, their mechs would definitely all be scrapped, and wanting to repair the mechs again would likely cost quite a few merit points.

Just then, Wang Yu, who was observing the golden Pheasant Beast leader below, suddenly saw his pupils shrink.

The golden Pheasant Beast above let out a sharp cry, spread its wings, and the giant white hazy light shield around it suddenly shattered, turning into countless light spots that poured down like a tidal wave toward Wang Yu's location.

"Boom, boom, boom."

Explosions on the ground rose and fell.

Countless giant white light clusters burst open, causing the ground to roll continuously, throwing up clusters of mushroom-shaped dust clouds.

Countless mechs and Pheasant Beasts were reduced to ashes in such a large-scale attack, as if the end of the world had arrived.

Further away, the remaining players who had luckily not been caught in such a large-scale attack were all left gaping in their mechs.

This was the first time most of these players had seen such a large-scale attack with such great destructive power, and they were all horrified in their hearts!

The golden Pheasant Beast did not stop there; its golden feathers stood up all over its body, and it spat out over a dozen giant circular sound waves in one breath toward the ground, all of which accurately hit the position where Wang Yu had previously been, splashing up even larger clouds of mist.

At this time, the golden Pheasant Beast was still staring fixedly below, as if looking at some mortal enemy, completely ignoring the other mechs nearby and the spaceship in the air.

"Whoosh."

After the white light below finally converged and disappeared, a shockwave suddenly emerged centered on a certain location, rolling out in all directions, sweeping away the nearby mech wreckage, Pheasant Beast corpses, and even the rolling dust clouds.

When everything on the ground became clear again, one could see a giant deep pit about a li in size at the center.

At the center of the giant pit stood a black, dull mech with its arms raised high and its ten fingers spread apart.
