Liu Xiao was aware of the situation of Team 7.

Team 7 has only been integrated for a short time, and it has basically established itself in the Undercity of Guangling.

They have already established their own power, the ' Red Gate,' and recently resolved the issue of the 'Yellow Springs' organization's infiltration.

In turn, they took over the ' Kaiyang Group ', and both their personnel and assets experienced explosive growth.

However, it has not been fully digested yet and will take some time.

As for the core of Team 7, led by Captain 'Red Oni', they have assembled a main force of about 30 people.

The average combat strength of that team members was around the Primary Level Three.

Among them, three are relatively strong, all above the Primary Level Four.

Captain 'Red Oni' is undoubtedly the strongest member of the entire team.

Previous intelligence indicated that he possessed the skill level of the Intermediate Level Two, had mastered at least two secret techniques, and had exceptional combat prowess.

Even Zhang Ze, the former captain of Team 7, Advanced level, was killed by it due to carelessness.

Now that some time has passed, it's likely that 'Red Demon' has already broken through and reached the Intermediate Level Three.

However, Team 7 has a fatal weakness.

Mechs!

They don't have mechs!

Without mechs, no matter how strong the captain and team members are, it's useless.

Mechs significantly boost combat power; otherwise, they wouldn't be able to fight against the behemoths!

Therefore, Team 7 without mechs is destined to be nothing more than a pretty face!

In contrast, consider team 3.

Liu Xiao's strength is comparable to Zhang Ze's, Yu Bai also possesses the combat power of Primary Level Great Perfection.

There are four more mechs!

Moreover, Yu Bai is currently piloting Zhang Ze's Advanced Mecha.

In addition to the Team 4 that came to support them, Chen Ling also piloted a mecha, although it was only Intermediate Mecha.

But all these conditions combined...

Liu Xiao was confident of victory.

However, he was also very cautious.

Even though Yu Bai had already discovered that Team 7 was hiding in that abandoned factory, Liu Xiao didn't take any chances and immediately brought out his mech.

They even allowed Chen Ling to fall slightly behind, ready to provide support at any time.

He used all his advantages to deliver Thunderous Strike!

At this moment, four mechs, including his 'Butcher', launched a fierce bombardment at the abandoned factory, with Liu Xiao firing a missile into the factory in particular.

Those are missiles designed to be used against giant beasts!

Instantly, the sizable factory was blown into the sky, Blazing Flame shooting up to form a massive fireball that leveled countless buildings.

The other mechs' rifles roared incessantly, forming a dense barrage of bullets that swept across the factory area.

The saturation of firepower practically turned the entire factory area upside down; even the underground bunkers within the factory were blasted to smithereens.

Inside the driver's cab, Liu Xiao's smile was gloomy.

He was already planning in his mind that after killing the Red Demon, he would go to Guangling and personally take over the assets of Team 7.

He increasingly felt that moving to Silver Bay Base was the wisest move he could have made.

On the day the 'Yellow Springs' organization suffered a defeat, Liu Xiao predicted that Chi Gui would likely learn of his existence from the 'Yellow Springs' organization.

Given the Red Demon's consistently swift and decisive style, he might very well launch an attack on me immediately.

So he left the Undercity overnight and came to the base.

The reason for coming to the base was twofold: firstly, to make it easier to deal with the Red Demon, and secondly, to prevent the Red Ghost General matter and having himself labeled a 'traitor' by the organization.

However, it seems there has been no reaction from within the organization.

This likely stems from the fact that the organization's higher-ups believe they are more valuable than the Red Demon, thus turning a blind eye to certain things.

That makes sense.

How could a mere Red Demon compare to the years of effort he's invested in the organization?

Thinking of this, Liu Xiao's lips unconsciously curled up, but he quickly composed himself.

Rumble.

The sounds of the attack on the abandoned factory could be heard even by people far away in the base.

Standing on high ground, you can even see billowing dust rising in that direction, and thick smoke being blown towards the base by the bay wind.

The bombing lasted for a long time.

They only stopped when they ran out of ammunition.

In the driver's cab, Liu Xiao looked at the dust cloud through the panoramic window and was about to send someone to check when a multi-functional reconnaissance radar started alarming frantically.

On the radar, a blue ripple could be seen spreading rapidly. Liu Xiao was shocked; it was a high-frequency electromagnetic pulse wave!

In just a moment, a pale blue electromagnetic pulse swept past the 'Butcher' and other mechs.

Suddenly, all four mechs trembled, electric currents crackled within their bodies, countless electronic components short-circuited, and the systems shut down.

Immediately, apart from Liu Xiao and Yu Bai Bai's Advanced Mecha which had electromagnetic pulse protection designs and were therefore not significantly affected.

The other two Mystic Machine in Team 3, as well as Chen Ling's mech in Team 4, were all disabled.

The light in the mecha's eyes flashed twice, then it froze, ceasing all movement.

Liu Xiao then exclaimed, "It's an electromagnetic pulse weapon!"

That factory is a trap!

"Team 7 isn't even in there!"

Although they realized it, it was too late.

Just behind the 'Butcher', a crimson mech suddenly rushed out, carrying a rapid-fire machine gun in both hands.

As soon as it was pointed at the 'Butcher,' he fired without hesitation.

Knock knock knock!

The deafening roar of the rapid-fire machine guns, the flames spewing from the muzzle outlined the mech with gold trim, and the powerful bullets caused fragments of armor to shatter and bursts of electricity to flash from the 'Butcher's' back.

Yu Bai wanted to help, but unexpectedly, the two mechs that Yu Qiushui was supporting also revealed themselves and attacked Zhang Ze's mech 'Green Snake' from both sides.

Inside the driver's seat, Luo Yan remained calm.

Before setting off, he purchased an Electromagnetic Pulse Bomb from Yu Qiushui.

This is the secret weapon to deal with the three teams of mechs.

Although he knew that Advanced Mecha all had electromagnetic shielding layers, and that the bombs wouldn't be very effective against Liu Xiao's vehicle, Luo Yan felt that it was enough to disable other low-end mechs and reduce drag.

In addition, he deliberately revealed the location of the abandoned factory to Yu Bai, who came to inspect it.

They had also positioned the mechs outside the factory in advance and activated the anti-reconnaissance system, so Liu Xiao didn't detect them beforehand.

Liu Xiao had planned everything meticulously, but he hadn't anticipated that Team 7 would be able to acquire mechs!

At this time

Just as the 'Butcher' was forced to raise its shield to defend, and the two mechs of the three teams were temporarily suppressed.

Near the other two temporarily disabled Mystic Machine, a team suddenly appeared on each side.

One of them was none other than the 'Iron Horse' mercenary group.

Guan Peng personally led the team to the outside of the mecha's cockpit.

Team member Wang Tian swiftly used a laser cutter to directly damage the cockpit door. Immediately afterward, the other team members, who were already prepared, threw Flash Bomb and tear gas canisters inside.

Instantly, the Mech Master in the cockpit lost his sight, and because the system was shut down and he had to remove his helmet, he was choked by tear gas, causing his eyes to water and him to cough incessantly.

Guan Peng immediately rushed in and took action to suppress the Mech Master. In just a short while, the pilot was bound hand and foot and unable to move.

Guan Peng then restarted the system, taking an electromagnetic pulse. The mecha was severely damaged, and its functions dropped significantly, but several major devices were still operational.

So Guan Peng had the Mech Master brought over, erased the previously recorded brainwave data, stripped the Mech Master naked, and threw him out of the cockpit.
