He exerted force suddenly, and the thrusters under his feet started up again, not backward but upward, while the shoulder cannon recharged.
At such close range, the blast wave exploded violently.
boom!
An incredibly blinding light instantly engulfed the two of them.
Even in Mo City, the mask was instantly adjusted to the highest level of light blocking, and the view was still completely white.
The Steel Shark, which relies entirely on its vision and ferocious instincts, let out a painful scream.
The blood-red eyepiece temporarily blinded him, and his grip loosened.
Now is the time to fight back!
Mo Cheng seized the opportunity to break free and leap backward, while maintaining a stable maximum power output from the Light Blade Armor.
Tear-away whirlwind!
His body spun at high speed, and the high-frequency particle blade drew a perfect 360° blue death circle, slashing fiercely across the steel shark that was stiffened by being blinded.
"Sizzle sizzle sizzle!"
With a series of cutting sounds, Steel Shark suffered several more deep wounds on his chest and abdomen, almost cutting him in half. He was even pulled backward by the spinning force.
Even so, the monster did not fall. After going berserk, his sense of dance would become increasingly numb. This abnormal vitality supported Steel Shark in fighting with all his might.
"Aaaaaah, I'm going to tear you apart!"
The crazed steel shark began wildly swinging its chainsaw sword, attempting to attack by instinct.
Mo Cheng landed, panting heavily. His nanosuit was rapidly repairing the damage and energy depletion caused by the recent hand-to-hand combat, and his stamina was almost completely exhausted.
He looked at the monster in front of him, who was almost covered in blood but still stood up and lunged forward, and the chill in his heart intensified.
"It's a monster... Conventional methods are ineffective."
Mo Cheng's eyes sharpened. "Then I'll use the last trick to finish you off."
He locked onto the swaying steel shark with his shoulder cannon again, but this time the charging sound was completely different, accompanied by a disruptive electromagnetic hum.
Hive electromagnetic pulse bomb, fire!
"call out!"
An ordinary-looking bullet was fired at an extremely high speed and hit Steel Shark's chest precisely.
There was no explosion, no flames.
Only one invisible but extremely intense electromagnetic pulse wave spread out instantly.
"Huh?" Steel Shark froze in mid-air.
His awakened ability to sustain combat was forcibly interrupted, and the steel shark's blood-red visors instantly dimmed, as if it had lost its energy source.
The berserk state is like being forcibly shut down.
A tremendous sense of weakness and unprecedented pain instantly overwhelmed Steel Shark's nerves.
He let out an incredulous, extremely painful howl, and his burly body crashed to his knees like a mountain collapsing and a jade pillar toppling, then fell forward, the chainsaw sword in his hand ceasing its spin and lying lifelessly to the side.
"Looks like you're afraid of getting electrocuted too!"
Mo Cheng slowly walked forward, pointing the gun at the back of Steel Shark's head, breathing heavily.
The bright orange mech was now covered with claw marks and impact dents, and the nano-reservoir was slowly repairing it.
Steel Shark lay motionless on the ground, its body only occasionally twitching unconsciously.
Although it still had a breath left, it was no longer a threat.
With the gun pointed at Steel Shark's head, Mo Cheng showed no mercy, because one must nip the problem in the bud.
Chapter 100 Erica is Seriously Injured
Having just crushed several Shadow Guards who were blocking his way, Shattered Reef scanned his surroundings through the crimson visor beneath his menacing helmet, searching for Erica.
His body, covered in thick, gray-black bio-armor with rust-red stripes, was like a mobile fortress, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression.
Just then, a powerful, piercing engine roar came from afar.
"Hey, big guy, try this."
Shattered Reef looked up sharply and saw an orange-red figure trailing a bright blue particle tail, hurtling along the corridor at high speed, flying almost close to the ground.
It was Erica piloting her "Storm Shark" mech, its V-shaped tactical goggles locked onto the broken reef, flashing with a cold scanning light.
"That little flying insect is so noisy!"
Broken Reef glared angrily, its voice coming through its mask, "Get down here."
He took a sudden step forward, and the massive power-driven anchor chain hammer, accompanied by a terrifying wailing sound that tore through the air, swung upwards and smashed towards the path Erica was flying towards.
The force of this hammer blow was enough to overturn a main battle tank.
Erica's lips curled into a wild smile beneath her visor. Just as the giant hammer was about to strike, the eight miniature thrusters on the back and feet of the Storm Shark suddenly unleashed extraordinary thrust.
The machine rose sharply at a near 90-degree angle, narrowly avoiding the devastating blow that could split mountains and shatter rocks.
The hammer struck the reef, missing its target, but the immense inertia caused his body to lean slightly forward.
"Metal Storm!"
With her arms raised, Erica, suspended in mid-air, caused the rotor of the electromagnetic railgun to begin spinning wildly.
At 36000 rounds per minute, this was no longer a shooting spree, but a torrent of metal. The fireballs, which intelligently switched between high-explosive and armor-piercing rounds, rained down on the broken reefs like a storm of scorching steel.
“Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding!”
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Countless sparks and explosions instantly engulfed the rubble, armor-piercing bullets pierced his biological armor, and high-explosive shells continued to explode, the impact knocking him over.
However, as the smoke and fire subsided, it became clear that the Reef had only suffered numerous dents and charring on its bio-armor from the terrifying firepower. The vast majority of the attacks were withstood by the exceptionally thick armor and the even stronger physical defense beneath it.
Only a few armor-piercing rounds managed to penetrate the gaps in the armor, but they did not seem to cause fatal damage.
"Annoying flying insects."
Breaking Reef charged forward, while its right power gauntlet began to charge, emitting a chilling low hum, clearly preparing for an even stronger shockwave attack.
"Don't be too arrogant."
Erica steadied herself, locking her V-shaped goggles onto the broken reef. "Honeycomb missiles, fire them all, aim at his joints and mask."
"Shhhhhhh!"
Once the command was confirmed, the missile pods on her shoulders opened instantly, and twenty-four miniature guided missiles, trailing white smoke, shot precisely at the joints and narrow, scarlet goggles of the wrecked reef, like an enraged swarm of bees.
The momentum of the reef-breaking charge had to be halted, and the massive power anchor chain hammer was swung again in an attempt to intercept these annoying little things.
His hammering technique was powerful and sweeping, and he actually smashed several missiles in mid-air.
"Boom, boom, boom boom!"
Fireballs exploded continuously in front of and beside him.
"boom!"
One of the missiles exploded in his right shoulder joint, causing him to stagger.
boom!
Another shell exploded at his knee, causing the reef to stagger.
The most dangerous missile struck his visor directly. Reef jerked his head around, and the missile grazed his helmet before exploding beside his ear. The violent shock and noise caused Reef to let out an angry roar, and cracks and scorch marks appeared on the side of his helmet.
"you wanna die!"
Completely enraged, Reef ignored the harassment from other missiles, charged up the energy of his power gauntlets to their peak, and aimed them at Erica, who had just launched a missile and was in a brief state of stun, and blasted it out from a distance.
Tsunami impact!
"Boom!!!"
A highly condensed, visible, milky-white, distorted air cannon, like a spear compressed to its limit, instantly crossed the distance between the two and blasted straight at Erica.
This strike had far greater penetrating power and concentration than the previous fan-shaped shockwave, making it extremely terrifying.
"Warning: Danger! Miss Erica, please take evasive action." The AI warned in time, but it was too late to dodge because the attack range was too large.
Erica's pupils contracted, and she could only push the energy shield to the front again, while simultaneously reversing the thrusters throughout her body to try to offset the impact as much as possible.
"boom!"
Upon impact, the double-layered force field of the energy shield shattered instantly, as if made of paper, and the terrifying impact slammed solidly into the shield and Erica's mech.
"Crack!"
A crisp sound of metal shattering rang out.
Erica screamed as she was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string. The shield on her left arm, along with part of the armor, was completely twisted and deformed, sparks flying everywhere. The nano-units inside frantically tried to repair it, but the damage was too severe.
She smashed through several walls before stopping amidst the ruins, with alarms blaring in the cockpit.
"cough……"
Erica immediately spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva, and felt as if she had almost lost all feeling in her left arm, and her whole body felt like it was falling apart. "Damn it, that strength is outrageous..."
Broken Reef's eyes were cold as he approached Erica step by step, dragging his power hammer along the ground, sparks flying as he went, his heart filled with cruel pleasure.
"Little flying insect, can't fly anymore now, can you?"
Broken Reef said viciously, "I will smash you and your iron shell into the most standard scrap metal."
Erica struggled to her feet. She knew she couldn't fall yet, because her teammates were fighting, and even if she had to fall, she had to delay as much as possible.
Meanwhile, on the other side, the battle was extremely fierce.
Iron Tripod stood firm in place like a tireless reef, but each swing of his hammer became heavier than the last.
The biomineralized armor was covered with burn marks, claw marks, and dents of varying depths, and even had tiny cracks in some places. Although it did not collapse under the slow nourishment of the sea-healing symbiotic spores, it was clearly approaching its limit.
His heavy breathing came through the mask like a broken bellows; he was exhausted and his body had reached its limit.
Coral behind her was in even worse shape; she gripped the Guardian's Staff tightly with both hands, her delicate body trembling slightly.
