658 – Star Tyrant Proto Dragon
TL : GoldenLung
There were countless spikes on the surface of the metal ball, and a mecha lost an arm just from being scratched.
The black mecha had charged forward and relied on its ferocious vitality to barely hold on to the front. The other mechas focused their fire, but when the cannon fire landed on this powerful Proto Dragon, it did not cause any damage. It only caused ripples of light.
“Speed up, let’s go help them. They might not be able to deal with this Proto Dragon, they need our help.” At this point, he revealed a faint smile.
They had already been out for a few hours and had yet to experience any battles. Although everyone did not doubt Lan Xuanyu’s choice, they really wanted to fight!
Especially when they saw so many corpses in front of them—there were over 20 Dragon Crystals. If these were theirs, then two of them would have completed the mission.
“Xuanyu, we can’t snatch prey from allies! After all, we’re all Sky Fighters,” Lan Mengqin whispered into Lan Xuanyu’s ear.
Lan Xuanyu glanced at her. “Am I that kind of person?”
“You are.” Lan Mengqin nodded without hesitation.
Lan Xuanyu shook his head. “No, I’m not. As the saying goes, ‘there is a way to steal.’ Why would I rob allies? Did I snatch Huihui’s things back then? We can only take what they give us, we definitely can’t snatch it. Those mechas should belong to the War God Temple, and the War God Temple has a very good relationship with our Shrek Academy. When our War God Temple’s brothers are in danger, what should we do? Of course, we will help them without hesitation.”
Seeing how righteous he was, Lan Mengqin didn’t know what to say. However, she felt that he wouldn’t be so kind. At least he wouldn’t be a good person for free.
Before they even got close to the battlefield, the rumbling sounds in front of them were already soul-stirring. Large patches of vegetation broke continuously, and the sound of artillery fire rang out continuously, accompanied by strong soul power fluctuations. It was clear how intense this battle was.
Liu Feng kept transmitting images of the battle.
The mechas weren’t in a good condition. That Proto Dragon was much stronger than they had imagined. Not only was it invulnerable, but its sharp claws could also spew out rays of metallic light. As long as it was brushed by a little, a mecha’s protective shield wouldn’t be able to withstand it and would be damaged.
Many mechas began to glow with soul power—this was the unique characteristic of the Duo Mecha Master style. A few Mecha Masters had already given up on their mechas and stored them away and fought with their own bodies. They all had One-Word Battle Armors on their bodies, and without the mechas, they appeared to be more agile. However, the destructive power of the Proto Dragon was simply too shocking, and they were completely suppressed.
If not for the fact that the black mecha was still struggling, they would have collapsed.
What a powerful Proto Dragon!
Even though he was watching the battle through the screen, Lan Xuanyu couldn’t help but praise it.
“Attention, third team, prepare to save people. Second team, prepare to attack from afar. Team one, move forward. We will go to the edge of the battlefield.” Lan Xuanyu quickly commanded his teammates. More than 30 people approached the battlefield silently.
“Frenzie, if anyone is in danger, save them,” Lan Xuanyu said through the communication device.
That’s right, true danger had begun to appear on the battlefield.
Liu Zhenwu was very depressed. This time, he was leading a reserve force from the War God Temple to participate in a Sky Fighter mission. According to the information he obtained, it shouldn’t be too difficult. Furthermore, it wasn’t his first time on Dragon Source Planet.
As a seven-ring Soul Sage, Two-Word Battle Armor Master, and a black Mecha Master, he had always thought that there weren’t many Proto Dragons that could threaten him on Dragon Source Planet.
It was the same the last time he was here. He had carried out this level three mission once before and completed it very easily. Killing ten Proto Dragons took less than a day.
This time, it was mainly to train the newcomers, so the War God Temple allowed him to lead the team.
As he had absolute confidence in his own strength, Liu Zhenwu led his team straight into the Proto Dragon Territory. He had a deeper understanding of Dragon Source Planet than Lan Xuanyu and his team. He knew that the powerful Proto Dragons were deep inside, far away from the human base.
When the humans first arrived at Dragon Source Planet, they were attacked by a ferocious Proto Dragon. But the terrifying attack power of the Federal Fleet left a deep lesson for them. Its main cannon easily destroyed countless Proto Dragons, including an apex rank 9 Proto Dragon.
From then on, there were some changes in the habitat of the Proto Dragon on Dragon Source Planet. The strongest Proto Dragon was on the other side of the planet, which was why he dared to bring people in so quickly.
Who would have thought that after killing over 20 Proto Dragons, they would encounter this one? It was a rank 6 Proto Dragon. There was also a name given by the Federation for it, the Star Tyrant Proto Dragon. Its strongest weapon was its large tail. It was like a meteor hammer with a terrifying tail that could get longer or shorter, good close-range or long range combat. Its attack power was unparalleled. When the metal elements exploded, it was not something an ordinary mecha could withstand.
His black mecha began to show signs of damage after resisting a few times.
And the Star Tyrant Proto Dragon had another extremely strong aspect, which was that it could continuously absorb metal elements to strengthen itself and recover its energy consumption. This was the most troublesome part.
He was unable to break through the other party’s defense and was being suppressed by the Star Tyrant Proto Dragon. If it was just Liu Zhenwu alone, he would have run away long ago. If he couldn’t beat it he could run, alright?
However, he was the leader of the team this time and there were still over ten newcomers. The youngest reserve conscript was only 17 years old this year and the oldest was only 19 years old. These were all talents that the War God Temple had carefully selected and groomed since they were young. If someone were to die here, he, as the leader of the team, would definitely be responsible! Hence, he was already grumbling in his heart.
The key was that this Star Tyrant Proto Dragon had an extremely strong ability. It could sprint at short distances and its meteor hammer-like tail could produce a huge pushing force when it struck the ground, allowing it to burst forth with an extremely strong speed in an instant. It was definitely an expert in chasing and killing.
“Everyone, disperse and return to the base,” Liu Zhenwu ordered.
“Captain, what are you going to do?” A panicked voice came through the communication device.
“I’ll cover for you while you retreat, don’t bother about me. Return to the base immediately.” Liu Zhenwu shouted in a deep voice, “There’s no time, I can’t hold on for too long, quickly leave, otherwise, no one will be able to leave.”
“No, captain, I’m not leaving. We want to fight together with you.” A purple mecha suddenly accelerated and charged straight at the Star Tyrant Proto Dragon. All sorts of soul cannons on its body were fired crazily, and it even had an additional fire attribute. This was the power of the Martial Soul that was attached to the soul cannon.
But this bit of attack power was clearly ineffective against the Star Tyrant Proto Dragon. He could only provoke it further.
The gigantic tail swung out and extended towards the mecha. It was extremely fast and heavy.
Liu Zhenwu quickly rushed over to stop it, but he was blocked by the metal light that came out from theStar Tyrant Proto Dragon’s front claws. The Star Tyrant Proto Dragon’s eyes suddenly turned into a brilliant gold color, and in an instant, a strong suction force erupted from his body. All the mechas were pulled towards him.
Magnetism! This was its other powerful innate ability that suddenly erupted at this moment. Mechas were all made of metal, so they were naturally drawn in. Even their Battle Armors were made of metal! In an instant, the people from the War God Temple that surrounded it were like moths flying into the fire as they were pulled in its direction.
Liu Zhenwu’s heart turned cold. It was over. He was touched that his young teammates didn’t give up on him and tried to help him to escape, but how foolish was that! They had missed the opportunity just now and couldn’t run anymore.
