Flowing Shadow Electric Flash

In the bustling plaza, two speeding vehicles kept weaving past each other, circling endlessly around the ruined center.

At this moment, Xiao Zhen had already possessed Blaze, barely making up for his level deficit and narrowing the gap between him and Vanguard.

When their speed reached its peak, both of them transformed into battle mode at the same time and unleashed their signature moves in alternation.

But the Combined Ultimate Technique Blaze and Vanguard used together was more than ten times as powerful as either of their individual signature moves.

The sheer force of the technique left the plaza floor in ruins and even sent the surrounding Motorcycle Warriors who had gathered to watch flying. If they had been standing any closer, there might have been friendly casualties.

Vanguard looked at the results he and Blaze had created and burst out laughing. "Awesome! With this Combined Ultimate Technique, forget a Golden Iron Beast—even if his master, Wild Star, came, he wouldn't be leaving alive!"

When Xiao Zhen flew out of Blaze's body, he could not help but dampen his enthusiasm. "Vanguard, don't celebrate too soon. Flowing Shadow Electric Flash might work against a speed-type War King like Tiger King, but against a power-type War King like Wild Star, I'm not so optimistic."

Vanguard said helplessly, "Xiao Zhen, can't you say something nice for once? Every time I'm happy, you have to come along and rain on my parade."

Xiao Zhen rolled his neck and continued, "There's something even more discouraging. We barely managed to use the Combined Ultimate Technique, but it still wasn't perfect. We need more practice.

"Otherwise, forget dealing with Tiger King. With his speed, he could probably just leap out of the range of your combined attack."

Blaze stepped forward and said, "Then let's practice again. We should master the Combined Ultimate Technique as soon as possible."

Xiao Zhen waved a hand and said wearily, "I've practiced with you two for so long that I'm really tired. Let me rest for a while.

"For the rest of the time, you two can practice Flowing Shadow Electric Flash yourselves. It'll also help deepen your coordination."

Vanguard slapped Blaze on the shoulder and said excitedly, "Blaze, then let's do it a few more times. We need to master Flowing Shadow Electric Flash as soon as possible."

Blaze nodded, but when he looked at the scene around them, he said helplessly, "The previous training damaged the grounds too badly. Training here will probably be more difficult now."

Three days later, the Black Iron Beast army outside the city was ready to attack again.

With their previous victory, the morale in the City of Time was soaring. They believed that with two great experts, Blaze and Vanguard, guarding the city, along with the legendary Mecha King, they would certainly be able to protect their home.

Golden Iron Beast waved a hand, and countless Black Iron Beasts behind him began advancing in dense ranks. There was also a specially made engineering vehicle among them.

Once the engineering vehicle was positioned at the moat, eight Black Iron Beasts began turning the winch cables, and the iron bridge on the vehicle slowly unfolded.

City Lord Bai, who was defending the city, saw that things were going badly and immediately gave the order to open fire.

In an instant, the warriors atop the walls opened fire one after another. The cannons in particular were deadly weapons.

The Black Iron Beasts operating the engineering vehicle were picked off one by one by the fire from the walls. But the Black Iron Beasts feared no death—whenever one was taken down, another rushed forward to replace it.

City Lord Bai gave another order. "Increase firepower! Continuous cannon barrage!"

After receiving the order, the Motorcycle Warriors' firepower became even fiercer. The Black Iron Beasts responsible for controlling the engineering vehicle were often blasted apart by the concentrated barrage before they could even touch the controls.

Under the heavy barrage, the iron bridge that had been raised high on the engineering vehicle slowly began to descend.

Seeing this, Golden Iron Beast hurriedly ordered his subordinates to rush up and hold it in place. They could not let the iron bridge on the engineering vehicle fall. They had to set it up, or attacking the city would become difficult.

More Black Iron Beasts charged forward desperately, trying to lower the iron bridge and establish a route to the city gate.

But under the concentrated fire, however many Black Iron Beasts rushed up were reduced to heaps of scrap metal, while the iron bridge on the engineering vehicle was about to hit the ground.

Golden Iron Beast saw that the situation was dire. Gritting his teeth, he charged forward himself and forcibly supported the iron bridge with his two claws before slowly pushing it ahead.

A large number of shells struck the iron bridge, placing even greater pressure on Golden Iron Beast as he held it up.

Still, Golden Iron Beast risked everything. With a burst of strength, he shoved the iron bridge forward. With a thunderous bang, it landed directly at the city gate.

Golden Iron Beast waved his hand and ordered, "Kill them!"

Countless Black Iron Beasts leaped onto the iron bridge in orderly ranks and began attacking the city gate that had only recently been repaired.

City Lord Bai was somewhat panicked as well. He had not expected them to be unable to hold out so quickly, but fortunately, they still had a trump card.

With the iron bridge in place, the Black Iron Beast army's morale surged, and their firepower became even more ferocious. Many warriors were pinned down and unable to raise their heads.

Even City Lord Bai, who was firing back, was struck in the shoulder by a shell. If his level had not been decent and his health higher than that of ordinary warriors, he would have been finished long ago.

At that critical moment, a blue and a red figure rushed out from the city. They leaped directly down from the wall, and upon landing, sent quite a few Black Iron Beasts flying.

Once Golden Iron Beast saw who they were, he immediately said angrily, "It's you two. You actually dare come out here to die."

Vanguard pointed at Golden Iron Beast and said disdainfully, "Who dies today is still uncertain! Today, you'll get a taste of what we can do."

Golden Iron Beast said scornfully, "Hmph! Just the two of you? Even together, you might not be a match for me. If you hadn't suddenly jumped down from the wall to ambush me that day, you never would have been able to injure me."

Blaze shouted, "Enough nonsense, Golden Iron Beast! Take this!"

Blaze and Vanguard immediately leaped high into the air. In midair, they moved in perfect coordination and unleashed Flowing Shadow Electric Flash.

Seeing them use such a powerful move, Golden Iron Beast, who had fought in countless battles, instinctively sensed danger. He jumped backward at once and transformed into a ball, increasing his defensive power.

The immense force unleashed by Flowing Shadow Electric Flash engulfed several hundred Golden Iron Beasts within its range.

Although the ball Golden Iron Beast had transformed into did not take Flowing Shadow Electric Flash head-on, it was still blasted far away, crushing several Black Iron Beasts along the way.

Black Iron Beasts lay scattered all around, and countless streams of battle energy flowed toward Blaze and Vanguard. Even the Motorcycle Warriors on the city walls were stunned.

They had already witnessed the power of Flowing Shadow Electric Flash in the plaza, but seeing it unleashed on a battlefield was an entirely different sight.

Golden Iron Beast struggled to his feet and looked at the two as they absorbed battle energy, fear showing in his eyes. These two could actually unleash such a powerful move.

Xiao Zhen, inside Blaze's body, said helplessly, "What a pity. We didn't hit Golden Iron Beast. We only sent him flying. We almost could have taken him out just now."

Vanguard nodded in agreement. "It really is a pity. If he hadn't jumped away in advance, we would have absorbed a huge amount of battle energy by now."

After experiencing that exhilarating feeling, Vanguard said excitedly, "Xiao Zhen, how about we do it again? I feel full of energy right now. If we use it one more time, we can definitely take down Golden Iron Beast."

Xiao Zhen said helplessly, "I'm afraid not. You two have been training like mad lately, and you've used up quite a bit of energy. Using Flowing Shadow Electric Flash just now has nearly drained you.

"If you really use Flowing Shadow Electric Flash again, you probably won't even have enough energy left to unleash a signature move. Even if you do kill Golden Iron Beast, the Black Iron Beasts around you will tear you to pieces."

Blaze asked, "Then, Xiao Zhen, what should we do next? Give us an idea. We'll listen to you."
