At this critical moment, Chen Mo naturally had to hold back a little less and add some strength to deal with this Metal Monster. Otherwise, there was no way to resolve the current danger.
Just as the Metal Monster approached, Chen Mo gripped his saber with both hands and drove it hard into the monster's chest. With the sharpened tip, the blade followed the rune patterns and pierced its chest several centimeters deep.
Amid a thud, the Metal Monster jolted from the impact and froze for a moment. However, because the attack had stabbed rather than slashed, the Puppet Heart rune circuit in its chest had not been damaged much. The pause was therefore extremely brief, and the Metal Monster swung its blade, ready to strike Chen Mo.
But Chen Mo paid it no mind. The instant the Metal Monster paused, he pulled back his saber and stabbed again!
With a bang, the tip of Chen Mo's saber broke through the Metal Monster's chest defenses and directly touched the Puppet Heart.
The Metal Monster's blade was already near Chen Mo's neck, but it stopped at that moment. Then its saber fell to the ground with a clang, and the Metal Monster collapsed with it.
If it had been any other mercenary making that attack, there would have been no chance of survival. The force Chen Mo had used to stab the Metal Monster was not something an ordinary person could achieve.
Of course, it would not have been a problem for an Ability User. But if Chen Mo had not added a little strength, Jackson would definitely have died this time.
When dealing with Metal Monsters, slashing was still the better option. Mercenaries should not even consider using stabbing attacks! Of course, a direct thrust, provided one had enough strength
