The shattered mech wreckage actually began to writhe like living things.
Countless small drones crawled out, their red eyes flashing as their buzzing swelled into a prelude to death.
"Wiping out every last one-that's my style!"
"This time, you're dead!"
She watched the dense swarm of steel insects surge toward her.
Fu Hua's gaze darkened.
"There's not much time."
Conventional methods wouldn't work.
Brute force was her only option.
Find a structural weakness.
Shatter the barrier with force-dispersing power and break through.
Her gaze swept swiftly around her, sharp as a blade.
She locked onto several points where stress was concentrated.
She couldn't wait any longer.
In a flash, she appeared before the nearest weak point.
She clenched her right fist, her knuckles cracking.
Boom!
One punch caved in the wall.
But it didn't collapse.
Smashing through it in such a short time would be no easy task.
Jackal's mocking, snide voice came through her earpiece:
"Slurp... I think I smell roasted meat."
Fu Hua remained expressionless.
All she wanted to do was curse.
Who had time to deal with this rabid dog right now?
She drew a deep breath.
The air currents around her abruptly converged.
Her second punch followed immediately.
The sharp crack of exploding metal wreckage had yet to fade.
Fu Hua flicked her fingertips, and the figure trying to approach her instantly became a shower of fire.
The heat did not subside; instead, like an ignited barrel of gasoline, it ravenously consumed the surrounding oxygen.
It was too hot.
She had no choice but to turn and rush toward another structurally unstable point.
Every second was agony.
That shrill voice continued to grate through the communications channel: "Stop struggling! Once I've roasted you into charcoal, I won't even bother sweeping up your ashes."
Fu Hua stayed
