"Everything has its use; what you despise only proves your short-sightedness."
Scrap Recycling Cannon!
Jock's greasy hair seemed to stand on end with excitement under his helmet, and the strange cannon muzzle on his shoulder began to charge, condensing into a viscous mass of metallic scrap that flashed green light and emitted intense heat.
"puff!"
A huge, writhing ball of waste shot toward Li Pojun at an astonishing speed.
This clump of waste not only possesses powerful physical impact but is also highly corrosive; once it adheres to something, even the thick armor of a giant spirit armor will be rapidly eroded.
Li Pojun's pupils contracted, but he did not choose to resist.
His body displayed unexpected agility, suddenly taking a step to the side while his left arm's machine gun continued to sweep away the approaching drones, and his right arm instantly switched to a portable energy cannon.
"Trying to frame me? Explode!"
Just as the scrap ball was about to pass by, Li Pojun activated his ability, causing the metal to explode in flames.
He didn't detonate the scrap sphere directly, because it wasn't entirely metal; instead, he detonated several larger metal fragments mixed inside the scrap sphere.
"boom!"
The internal explosion caused the structure of the waste sphere to become unbalanced instantly, scattering irregularly in the air. Corrosive liquid dripped onto the lunar soil, making a hissing sound and emitting puffs of white smoke, but it failed to harm Li Pojun in the slightest.
"You idiot, you're crazy."
When Jock, the junk king, saw that his trump card had been broken, he roared in anger, his eyes bloodshot.
"EMP!"
Jock decided to take a risky move. The next moment, the core of the tattered Monarch armor lit up with an unstable red light, and he prepared to release a large-scale electromagnetic pulse.
"Don't even think about it, I won't give you a chance..."
Li Pojun, with his extensive combat experience, had already discerned the instability of the Jock armor.
He didn't give the opponent a chance to fully unleash his EMP. His back-mounted energy cannon recharged, and at the same time, he unleashed the full power of his dual machine guns, creating a barrage of bullets that covered Jock and the space around him completely.
"Showing off in front of me? Go eat shit!"
Faced with such an attack, Jock was forced to interrupt the release of EMP and frantically manipulated his mechanical tentacles to build a defense, while simultaneously releasing more self-destructing drones to disrupt the attack.
In an instant, the area where the two were located was completely submerged by the flames of the explosion, flying shrapnel, twisted machinery, and corrosive liquid.
Chapter 251 That's also a kind of glory
In the Dragon Tooth Squad formation, which was relatively far back, Su Mu's Shennong Armor emitted a soft milky white and emerald green halo.
She pressed her hands together, and the All Things Restoration Bio-Particle Diffuser went into full operation. Healing energy, like ripples, spread out from her center, enveloping each injured Dragon Fang team member and their Moon Guard.
The cracks in the damaged armor were slowly repaired by the nanobots, and the deep wounds that exposed bone healed rapidly under the guidance of the life essence. Even the team members who felt their life essence stagnate due to the desolate domain of Purgatory felt a sense of relief under this warm energy.
"Hold on, Xuanzhong, your shield energy is recovering."
"Flame, your armor is overheating. I'll neutralize some of the heat for you."
Su Mu's gentle voice reached each team member's ears through the tactical link, soothing their pain and fatigue. She was the solid support that enabled the Dragon Fang Squad to continue fighting.
However, this oasis of life also became the thorn in the side that the enemy needed to remove most.
In the distance, hidden behind the pirate lines, Xue Wei wore a mocking smile on her alluring face.
Her scarlet hair danced as if it were alive, and the rose-shaped plates on her Blood Plague Rose Armor opened and closed slightly, releasing blood plague spores that were almost imperceptible to the naked eye and carried a slightly sweet and fishy smell.
"What warmth, what pure vitality..."
Blood Rose licked her alluring red lips, her vertical pupils gleaming as if she had discovered a new and fascinating toy. "Beautiful flowers are often most captivating when they are withered!"
Blood plague curse, withering and blooming!
She gently raised her hand, and an invisible, malevolent intent mixed with specially made spores pierced through the chaotic battlefield, silently coiling towards the area where Su Mu was located.
These spores do not attack directly, but rather quietly invade the bodies of the Dragon Fang team members, interfering with their bodily fluid circulation and causing internal bleeding, organ failure, or neurotoxins.
A hint of seriousness flashed across Su Mu's beautiful face, which was adorned with frameless glasses.
Her life essence resonance ability made her exceptionally sensitive to the flow of life energy, and she sensed the cold and filthy energy fluctuations almost the instant Xue Wei launched her attack.
Su Mu remained calm. The Spirit Silk Nanosurgical Unit on the shoulder of Shennong Armor quickly activated, releasing countless tiny nanorobots that shimmered with emerald light.
These filament nanobots act as the most loyal guardians, actively confronting the invisible blood plague spores and intercepting, enveloping, and decomposing them before they can contact their teammates.
The emerald green and dark red glimmers continuously dissipated in the air, eventually being purified and eliminated.
"Hmph~ You've got some skill, managing to stop my withering bloom."
Xue Wei snorted lightly, undeterred. Her abilities extended far beyond this. "Then, how about we try this?"
"Pain and symbiosis, draw upon it!"
She changed her strategy, no longer attacking Su Mu directly, but instead targeting the ordinary Moon Guard warriors who were fiercely fighting the space pirates ahead.
An invisible force instantly connected the Moon Guards and Blood Roses.
"Ugh!"
The Moon Guards suddenly let out a shrill scream, their wounds instantly worsened, and their blood seemed to be drawn out by an invisible force, turning into strands of blood-red energy that merged into Blood Rose's armor.
A blush of enjoyment appeared on Xue Wei's face, and the light from her armor seemed to shine even brighter.
Meanwhile, the space pirates around her were overjoyed at the sight and their attack became even more ferocious.
"mean!"
A flash of anger crossed Su Mu's eyes. She immediately focused her healing wave on the Moon Guards whose health was being drained. Her powerful life essence forcefully stabilized their injuries and interrupted the Blood Rose's absorption.
However, she was also unable to fully support the front line as before because she needed to be distracted by these strange attacks.
"It's no use, little sister."
Xue Wei's voice possessed a bewitching magic, transmitted through some kind of mental fluctuation, "Pain is the essence of life. The more you heal, the more nourishment I can absorb. In this war of attrition, you are destined to be exhausted first. Why not give up resistance and let me savor your pure life essence..."
Su Mu did not reply, but focused more intently on guiding her life energy. Her eyes were firm, without a trace of fear.
She constantly adjusted her life link system with her teammates, while directing the phantom nanobots to build an invisible defense line around them to resist the pervasive blood plague curse.
On the other side, the battle between Chen Yuan and Ling Ye had become the eye of the storm on the entire battlefield.
The dark golden Xihe and Chen Yuan, who was flowing with nano-silver light, were like two destructive streams of light, and each collision of them caused a surge of energy that tore through space.
"Spatial teleportation!"
Ling Ye's solar prominence gauntlets crashed down with a molecular shockwave that could destroy everything. Chen Yuan's figure disappeared before the attack arrived, leaving only a slight ripple in the air.
The next second, he appeared ten meters behind and to the side of Ling Ye. Nanoparticles surged in his right arm, transforming into a molecular splitting sword. He held it in his hand, radiating a dark red, deathly light, and thrust it straight at the engine on Ling Ye's back.
"Hmph... Solar flare!"
Ling Ye reacted extremely quickly, instantly activating the flare generator on his shoulder armor, unleashing a burst of intense light and electromagnetic pulses, intending to blind and interfere with Chen Yuan's combat suit system.
Chen Yuan pushed with his left palm, and an invisible spatial barrier instantly formed, deflecting most of the intense light and pulses. Although the barrier itself fluctuated violently and almost collapsed, it bought him this moment.
The momentum of the Splitting Sword remains undiminished!
"Hey!"
Ling Ye managed to turn to the side, but his dark gold armor was still ripped open with a deep gash, and the material structure at the edges was slowly disintegrating.
"Cunning boy!"
Ling Ye lost his composure, unleashing his full molecular vibration ability. His fists, like high-frequency oscillators, relentlessly pursued the attack, while simultaneously ordering the surrounding Moon Guards: "Firepower coverage, restrict his movement."
Countless plasma beams and live ammunition rained down on Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan instantly expanded the electromagnetic gravity field to its maximum extent, causing all the incoming projectiles to noticeably dip in trajectory and their speed to decrease sharply.
He moved like a ghost, seamlessly switching between shadow stealth and spatial teleportation, blending into the shadows of buildings, avoiding heavy artillery locks, and then teleporting into the Moon Guard mech group. His left arm's nanoparticles transformed into a multi-barreled rapid-fire gun, clearing out a large area in an instant.
Chen Yuan danced a perfect waltz on the edge of death, maximizing his speed and unpredictable abilities. Although he was in constant danger, he always managed to avoid fatal attacks and launch a fierce counterattack at the last second.
Seeing that Ling Ye was unable to break through after a long attack and was even looking a little disheveled, Shi Potian roared, "I'll help you!"
He took a heavy punch from Barton, then used the momentum to suddenly turn around. The Xingtian mech burst out with a speed disproportionate to its size, and the giant shield on its left arm slammed towards Chen Yuan, who was slightly sluggish after using his abilities repeatedly, as if swatting a fly.
A regional gravitational field instantly enveloped Chen Yuan, intending to pin him firmly to the spot.
"Your opponent is me, why do you always get involved in other people's battles?"
How could we let Patton have his way?
Seeing Chen Yuan in danger, the last shred of reason in his eyes was completely replaced by madness, and he entered the third stage of the Crimson Fission without hesitation—bloodlust.
"boom!"
A terrifying crimson energy storm erupted from Barton's center, causing his attributes to surge to more than five times their normal value in an instant.
The space around him was distorting, and blood-red shockwaves, almost tangible, shot out from the gaps in his armor, like burning flames of life.
The price was that his armor was cracking inch by inch, and he was bleeding from all seven orifices, but Patton didn't care.
It is an honor for a soldier to die on the battlefield.
Chapter 252 A desperate battle
"Get out of my way, Shi Potian, don't interfere with Lord Chen Yuan."
Barton's speed became like a true crimson lightning bolt, arriving first despite being behind, and he directly and brutally rammed his body into the giant shield that Shi Potian was slapping at Chen Yuan.
"Boom!"
This collision was far greater than any before, like two meteors colliding head-on in an instant.
The terrifying shockwave spread, directly injuring dozens of Moon Guards and Space Pirates fighting nearby, and even causing the ground to collapse several meters deep.
Shi Potian's Xingtian was rammed off course by this reckless collision, and the giant shield crashed to the ground, leaving a deep crater.
Patton himself was also badly injured, flying backward like a broken sack, his armor mostly shattered, covered in blood, and crashing heavily into a pile of wreckage, his fate unknown.
However, he successfully completed the interception. Although he stopped Shi Potian, Barton also suffered a backlash from his ability.
Everything that happened in the blink of an eye gave Chen Yuan a chance to react.
Due to Shi Potian's intervention and Chen Yuan's evasion, Ling Ye's offensive was momentarily interrupted.
