Sniping the Invader
After Qin Yiguan destroyed the mecha, he opened its chest.
There was no driver inside, only a spherical control core that flickered with indicator lights intermittently, as if receiving some kind of signal and continuously executing remote control.
But before Qin Yiguan could examine it carefully...
Sparks erupted inside the control core, burning itself to a crisp. The circuitry and outer casing melted, causing it to self-destruct.
"It has a self-destruct system installed."
"Then it must be to hide something."
Qin Yiguan carefully examined the ground around him; at first glance, the surrounding area appeared to be desolate land.
However, upon closer inspection, there were many metal fragments and some wire remnants scattered in the soil. These items should all have come from mechs or aircraft.
Not far away, Qin Yiguan also found some blackened scabs.
Those were bloodstains that had dried long ago.
Qin Yiguan frowned. Many battles had taken place on this wasteland, and people had bled to death.
If these Guardian mechs are remotely controlled, then it means that the blood comes from outsiders.
Qin Yiguan ordered God's Abandoned to maneuver the Shadow back to a safe area and prepare for camouflage.
After all, the Shadow was too conspicuous.
Qin Yiguan decided to proceed on foot to investigate the enormous building!
During the walk.
Kick the soil and you'll see metal debris. The varying degrees of corrosion on this debris indicate that the fighting on this land has been ongoing intermittently for many years.
"That's really domineering."
"You're still 400 kilometers away, and you're already indiscriminately killing people?"
What exactly is hidden inside that building?
"On the other hand, deep in this Experimental Zone, far from the reach of the central government, anything is possible!"
Qin Yiguan walked slowly, looked up at the sky, and saw that many spherical monitoring detectors had gathered above his head.
Under these circumstances, it would be impossible to travel 400 kilometers to enter that massive base.
But Qin Yiguan had already devised a plan: to turn the tables on them!
And at this very moment.
Dust billowed up in the distance.
Hundreds of mechs of all kinds charged in like rabid dogs unleashed from their cages.
Of course, most of the mechs are still very cool, with various sharp designs and different paint schemes. More than half of them are humanoid mechs, wielding particle swords.
There were also many tracked mechs, their tracks spinning rapidly, sending debris flying.
There are also flying mechs that resemble aircraft in mid-air.
Qin Yiguan faced a massive army alone, yet remained remarkably calm and focused, using his intellect to his advantage.
"The mechs come in all shapes and sizes; almost none are exactly alike."
"They are not mass-produced."
"It should be... that each one has an owner and is meticulously designed."
"Could this be some kind of mecha club?"
"Assuming that's really the case, why are you all so hostile, ganging up on a stranger like me?"
Just then, the ground beneath Qin Yiguan's feet suddenly trembled, and a huge metal drill suddenly shot out from the ground, spinning rapidly, and the fragments of stone it threw out were comparable to bullets.
Qin Yiguan immediately leaped back 5 meters.
Suddenly, a medium-sized mech, resembling a crab but with alloy drill bits in its pincers, burst out of the ground!
The mecha stood in front of Qin Yiguan, with an indicator light near its mouth flashing continuously, as if the pilot was speaking.
Qin Yiguan listened intently.
"#@￥#%convex( •̀_•́ )convex...￥&@!!!"
"#￥￥%→_→...!"
Qin Yiguan narrowed his eyes. "What are you talking about!"
The crab mech's language was like a CD played by Kark, or like tearing apart a pile of rags—it sounded very awkward and completely unintelligible.
"But."
Qin Yiguan frowned. "I have a feeling it's looking down on me, it's mocking me?! Damn it, you're not going back!"

Brain Hyperactivity Zone B05 [Shadow Syndrome], Human Weapon, Fighter Skill Enhancement!
But Qin Yiguan instantly rushed to the lower abdomen of the machine and kicked it!
This crab mech wasn't very big, only about 4 meters long. Qin Yiguan Qin Yiguan it over with one foot, then stood on its stomach, put his five fingers together, made a knife shape with his hand, and slashed repeatedly at the crab's pincer joints!
Bang bang bang!
Mars flew everywhere, and engine oil and water splattered all over the floor!
Click!
Qin Yiguan ripped the two drill-tweezers off the crab's body, then shoved them into the mechanical crab's mouth!
Bang!
Sparks shot out from the crab-shaped mech's body, followed by a puff of blue smoke. Its entire body twitched for a moment before it became completely paralyzed!
Qin Yiguan then lifted the crab's chest, only to find that the cockpit inside was still the same, with no operator, only a spherical control core!
Beep beep beep!
The world of "The Breath of the Mute".
From a young player's perspective, the scene is filled with red exclamation marks. His body becomes illusory and appears at the respawn point in an instant.
"Depend on!"
"Is this Mute Demon that freakish?!"
"You dismantled my A46-class mech with your bare hands?"
What's going on?
"Has this monster's power system been adjusted?"
There's been no official announcement!
"Damn it!"
"My mech, which I spent four months upgrading, is gone just like that!"
The player was extremely unwilling to accept this and immediately turned on the game's live stream.
The title of the screen reads, "Human Base No. ED02 is under attack by unidentified Mute Demon. Nearby players are requested to proceed quickly and work together to eliminate them."
Winning Reward: 5 Advanced Modification Kits.
Note: The threat level of this Mute Demon has been adjusted from A2 to S1!
"Depend on!"
"You're only just realizing you need to adjust your level? What a rip-off of an official website!"
The young player couldn't help but curse, "The captain said that this S1-level Mute Demon is roughly equivalent to a human with a 65% Fusion Rate in the Metaverse! How could I possibly beat it!"
"Huh?"
The player suddenly stopped complaining and his attention was drawn to the live stream screen. "The Thousand-Handed Demon ranked 13th has arrived! Haha, that Mute Demon is done for!"
