Just as the black afterimage was about to pounce on Si Ai's slender body and shatter it completely.

As Si Ai's pupils lit up like computer indicator lights, two small drones sprayed flames and flew out of the car, crashing hard into the black afterimage.

The next moment, the Priest attacked. He rushed over, picked up the giant shotgun with six muzzles, and fired shot after shot, blasting hundreds, even thousands, of bullets into the flames generated by the drone explosion.

When the flames dispersed, the AAB's entire beast-like face was blown to pieces. Various electronic components and broken wires were exposed, sparking and spitting electricity. Yet, even so, the thing could still move.

At this moment, Sun Jack couldn't worry about anyone else; he was struggling to save himself.

Looking at the beast robot eyeing him menacingly, Sun Jack knew that bullets wouldn't penetrate its armor. He needed to bring out the heavy stuff.

"I don't believe this! You can withstand artillery!" Sun Jack gritted his teeth and aimed the muzzle of his weapon at the creature before him.

But to his surprise, just as he was about to fire, the black panther straightened its joints and dodged with extreme speed.

It was so wary of Sun Jack because it had scanned the cannon launch device in Sun Jack's prosthetic limb as a threat.

But it had clearly found a way to counter it now: using high maneuverability to dodge the cannonballs Sun Jack fired.

However, Sun Jack couldn't stop now. If it got close, he wouldn't be able to withstand even one of its Steel Claws. For a moment, his situation became a stalemate.

"This AAB has been DIYed," Sun Jack heard the Priest's voice for the first time in the channel. His voice was hoarse and heavy.

"AABs don't have black paint, the machine gun has been removed, and even military-grade AAB armor isn't this strong."

"More than that, look, it's also equipped with a Piston Rotor Type 2 underneath. Damn it, this guy is really playing with fire, installing this kind of thing on a combat robot."

As Si Ai tapped a few times on her arm with her fingers, four new small drones flew out of the car and continuously fired at the AAB's red camera.

"Does it matter who did it? You guys figure out how to deal with one!" Sun Jack fired another shot, forcing the approaching AAB back.

The Priest said this, threw away his Six Star Gun, and took off his trench coat, revealing his metal prosthetic from the neck down. It turned out that except for his head, his entire body was made of metal.

With a "boom," the floor beneath the Priest's feet was directly shattered. He charged forward at a speed half a step faster than the AAB.

As the two iron lumps collided fiercely, Sun Jack, standing nearby, could feel the shockwave.

"The only difference between this guy and a tank is probably just the two legs."

And just as Sun Jack was thinking this in his mind, the AAB in the distance instantly found a flaw and charged from Sun Jack's blind spot with an afterimage.

But just as it was about to succeed, a black shadow descended from the sky and smashed heavily onto its head. It was Taipai; he was back!

Seeing Taipai tightly gripping its neck, Sun Jack immediately raised his cannon and charged forward, "Break its mouth!"

Just as Taipai was about to act, the AAB's head rotated 180 degrees, and its huge mouth bit down on Taipai's head, spitting out sparks as it chewed.

Seeing this, Sun Jack immediately panicked. With a "click," the Arc Blade extended, and Sun Jack charged forward, slashing fiercely at the AAB's neck.

With an extremely sharp scraping sound, a crack appeared on AAB's neck. This electrified blade was far sharper than Sun Jack had imagined.

AAB extended its front claws, attempting to scratch Sun Jack, but was held firmly by Taipai.

While Taipai used his head to restrain the opponent, Sun Jack slashed with all his might, forcefully severing AAB's head.

Just as Sun Jack thought the trouble was over, unexpectedly, the headless AAB quickly turned, and with a kick of its front legs, sent Sun Jack flying.

"Bro!! Why did you cut off its head! Do you think it's a real animal? Attack the Energy Core! The head is just a sensor!" Song 6PUS's voice echoed in Sun Jack's mind.

"If you're not going to work, then shut the fuck up!!" Sun Jack stood up again, feeling a burning pain in his chest. He looked down and saw that even though he had blocked with his cybernetics, his chest was slightly caved in.

Fighting these Metal Lumps with flesh and blood was a huge disadvantage.

Sun Jack couldn't help but worry. "Fuck me, I hope the broken ribs don't pierce my heart."

But seeing AAB stomping on Taipai like a toy in the distance, he ignored everything else, pulled out a Painkiller, and forcefully injected it into his thigh.

Before the medicine could take effect, Sun Jack charged forward again. Just then, suddenly, data flashed rapidly before Sun Jack's eyes, displaying various data about AAB, including the location of its Power Core and the thickness of each piece of flexible armor.

"This is AAB's data, but it's the basic version. It's not yet certain what else these two AABs have been modified with."

Sun Jack immediately changed his strategy, switching from slashing to stabbing. The sharp blade crackled with electricity in the air.

Just as he was about to stab, AAB seemed to have eyes in the back of its head. Its body swayed, and its heavy tail whipped over like a whip.

The tail possessed immense force, stirring up a gale as it swung. It was predictable what would happen if this whip swept across Sun Jack's body.

A dark shadow blocked Sun Jack's path. It was Taipai!

With a "clang," the tail fiercely struck Taipai's crossed arms, causing his armor plates to slightly indent.

AAB was about to pull its tail back, but Taipai held onto it tightly. When the opponent's high mobility was restricted, the situation instantly reversed.

Sun Jack once again mounted the cannon barrel on Taipai's shoulder. "Die, you bastard!"

Sun Jack fired three shots at the AAB whose movements were restricted. The first shot blew open the armor, and the second and third shots directly destroyed AAB's Power Core.

At such close range, although Taipai blocked most of the shockwave, Sun Jack himself was still shaken, bleeding from his nose and ears, his head buzzing.

"It's hard to earn money and hard to eat shit," Sun Jack wiped the blood from his nose and looked to the other side.

At this moment, the Priest had grabbed the other AAB by the neck. His five fingers closed together and spun rapidly, turning into a Drill that forcefully pierced the opponent's chest, ripping out the Power Core.

Seeing that the battle on the other side was also over, Sun Jack immediately sat on the grass, gasping for breath.

Taipai, seeing that the situation was not right, quickly found Si Ai and brought her to treat Sun Jack.

Si Ai came to Sun Jack's side, knelt on one knee, and quickly pressed her fair thigh. The synthetic skin slid open, revealing various medical tools and various press-type injections.
