The battleships on the battlefield were all searching for the location from which the missiles had just been launched.
No one noticed the red figure appearing along the flank of a battleship.
A forty-meter Energy Greatsword struck a battleship. The Taotie Warriors inside watched as their battleship's Energy Shield lost a huge chunk of energy in an instant. "What was that?"
The Taotie Warrior had barely finished speaking when the battleship split into two. The last thing he saw was a thirty-meter-tall mech.
Yan Huang Communications...
Yan Three: "Number One, Number Three has joined the battlefield."
Yan One: "Number Three, destroy the Taotie Battleships with all your strength."
Yan Three: "Understood."
After Yan Three cleaved a Taotie Warrior's battleship in half, the soldiers below looked at the giant machine and said, "That's a mech."
The soldier who had run the fastest earlier said, "That is the highest pursuit of our Mech Force."
On the battlefield, the Yan Huang Mech spread its wings and attacked the battleships under the concentrated fire of every vessel.
On Demon Wings, Morgana watched the battlefield in Tianhe City and said, "Damn, what the hell is that mech that just appeared? A Tuo, investigate it now."
With the Yan Huang Mech joining the aerial battlefield, the pressure on the ground forces was greatly reduced. B1 Type Mechs also began appearing on the ground battlefield again, bringing a new wave of pressure to the Taotie Warriors.
Standing on the shoulder of the mech Li Qi was piloting, Su Jiu said, "Tsk, tsk. A mech piloted well can put considerable pressure on battleships."
Li Qi said, "Number Three is the best of the best. No one handles Mech Number Three more smoothly than him."
As they spoke, a streak of red light shot toward Su Jiu. The Moon Wheel flashed and appeared to her right, directly blocking the red light.
With a flick of her finger, Su Jiu sent Cherry Blossom Petals flying toward the position from which the sniper rifle had fired. A Taotie Warrior fell from a tree.
Somewhat surprised, Su Jiu asked over the command channel, "Baili, why did a sniper show up on my side?"
Baili Shouyue said, "Captain, the Taotie have expanded the battlefield's range."
After thinking for a moment, Su Jiu said, "Watch your safety. The range has expanded, and the flagship is about to arrive."
Baili Shouyue kept moving while occasionally firing. Every gunshot brought down a Taotie Warrior.
The Taotie Warriors also discovered Baili Shouyue and dispatched three squads to hunt him down.
One hundred meters from Baili Shouyue, Zhao Yun said, "The hunt has begun." With a flick of his spearhead, Zhao Yun vanished from where he stood.
A Taotie Warrior who was still secretly approaching Baili Shouyue had no time to react before Zhao Yun pierced him clean through.
Then Zhao Yun vanished again. On the battlefield, a Taotie Warrior was doing his best to direct the battle. "Right wing, tie down those robots. Use long-range weapons to attack those robots. And snipers, target the people on the mechs on the ground." He had barely finished speaking when a bullet blew apart his head.
At once, Taotie commanders on the other battlefields shouted, "Sniper! The enemy has a sniper! Find the sniper's position!"
From afar, Baili Shouyue curled his lip. "Done. Next one."
Zhao Yun continued killing the Taotie Warriors approaching Baili Shouyue. After Baili's position had just been exposed, squad after squad of Taotie Warriors charged toward Baili Shouyue and Zhao Yun.
On the ground battlefield, the combat robots were slowly dwindling, and the soldiers began joining the fight. From the very start, they had known that the Taotie Warriors were powerful, so they formed groups of ten to attack them.
Another group of warriors in blue-and-white combat uniforms was active on the battlefield. They moved in teams of three.
A ten-man squad was fighting two or three Taotie Warriors, but one soldier died the moment they clashed. Just when everyone thought they were about to die, three blue-glowing Laser Swords appeared in the chests of the three Taotie Warriors.
The Taotie Warriors fell, and the soldiers looked at the three Blue Sword Members standing behind them, holding Laser Swords.
One of the three Blue Sword Members said, "Make it back alive." The soldiers then watched the Blue Sword Members swiftly weave across the battlefield.
On the Taotie flagship, Li Mu listened to his subordinate's report and said, "Mech warriors? Large-scale mechs, and highly mobile at that..."
"Yes, Lord Li Mu," the Taotie Warrior replied.
Li Mu said, "Then use the Flagship Main Gun to target their position. That mech warrior will have no choice but to block it. Otherwise, we'll tear open a gap in their Defense Zone."
Having received the information Chi Yang had obtained by infiltrating the Taotie, Su Jiu said to Li Qi, "The Taotie are preparing to use the Flagship Main Gun to tear open a gap. They want us to use the mech to block it. If we don't, they'll open a breach in the Defense Zone."
Li Qi asked, "Can your flagship block it?"
Su Jiu said, "It can, but our firepower would have to stop. That would be more loss than gain. If we stop firing at the Taotie flagship, it will use its full firepower to bombard the position."
Li Qi furrowed her brow and ordered Yan Three, "Number Three, the Taotie flagship is going to attack the position. Block it with all your strength."
Yan Three said, "Number One, understood."
Yan Three piloted the mech to fly in front of the position. At that moment, a fiery-red laser beam shot toward it.
Yan Three controlled the Yan Huang Mech and held the Energy Greatsword horizontally. The laser beam struck the Energy Greatsword directly.
Yan Three shouted, "Stop right there! Increase the energy output!"
Sizzle... Sizzle... Sizzle. The Energy Sword in the Yan Huang Mech's hand became increasingly solid as it held the laser beam at a stalemate. Beep beep... Yan Huang Mech energy consumption: 20% Beep beep... Yan Huang Mech energy consumption: 60% Beep beep... Yan Huang Mech energy consumption: 80%
Thirty seconds later, the laser beam vanished, and one arm of the Yan Huang Mech on the battlefield had disappeared.
Yan Three had already fallen unconscious. Seeing this, the Taotie Warriors wanted to kill the person inside the Yan Huang Mech.
Every warrior on the battlefield received an order: save the person inside the mech at all costs.
Someone capable of perfectly piloting the Yan Huang Mech was far too valuable. So many people had tried to operate the Yan Huang Mech, but Yan Three was the best. Some could not even complete the neural link.
One could only imagine how powerful Yan Three would be with an even stronger mech, considering he could fully establish the link.
Some Taotie attempted to approach the damaged Yan Huang Mech from the air, only to be killed by grayish-white bullets one after another.
From afar, Qi Lin continuously shot the Taotie Warriors approaching Yan Three. Fortunately, Yan Three's position was not too far away. With the full-force rescue efforts of the Blue Sword Members and the soldiers, Yan Three was brought back.
Su Jiu asked strangely, "Is that person special?"
Li Qi rolled her eyes and said, "If one's mental strength is not strong enough for the Yan Huang Mech's neural link, they cannot fully connect to it. The five people who can fully link with it now were only found after immense difficulty."
Su Jiu froze. "System, is that true?"
The system said, "Ordinary people lack the mental strength needed to fully link with the Yan Huang Mech. The host's teammates are all Super Soldiers, so their mental strength is certainly not weak."
With the system's explanation, Su Jiu understood. Her teammates were Super Soldiers, which was why the Yanhuang Mech Blueprint had not specifically noted it. Ordinary people needed either extraordinary talent or powerful mental strength.
