At the critical moment, the pressure field generator behind the vortex suddenly burst out with intense blue light.
"Go away!"
boom!
A sudden, high-pressure water explosion emanated from her, like a depth charge being detonated, its indiscriminate and violent impact sweeping wildly in all directions.
Feixue reacted with lightning speed, instantly withdrawing her attack and crossing her arms in front of her to protect herself. She activated her energy shield at full power and simultaneously used her thrusters to propel herself in the opposite direction, attempting to offset the impact.
But the distance was too close, and the power was too great.
She was still thrown away by this terrifying force, crashing through a series of fragile metal partitions behind her, and disappearing into the billowing dust and mist.
The four floating cannons were also shaken by the shockwave and flew around wildly, flashing with light, temporarily losing their formation.
"damn it……"
Vortex knelt on the ground, panting heavily. The pressure field generator was overloaded and temporarily unusable.
She looked up in the direction where Feixue had been knocked away, her face pale beneath her mask, still shaken.
Just now, she really smelled the scent of death.
Before long, the dust slowly settled.
In the distant ruins, a faint blue light shone once more.
Feixue pushed away the steel plate pressing down on her and slowly stood up.
The surface of the nanosuit shimmered with light, rapidly repairing the damage and energy loss caused by the recent impact.
The V-shaped goggles locked onto the kneeling vortex from afar, brimming with murderous intent.
The battle is far from over.
……
The upper level of the lighthouse is a huge storage area.
Twelve Iron Guards, twenty Hellhounds, and two mechanical Black Hawks all activated annihilation mode to search for the enemy.
The guards began searching from various locations when suddenly a loud noise came from a corner.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
A burly figure emerged from behind a pile of abandoned shipping containers, his steps heavy.
This person is none other than Tie Che!
His heavy, grayish-white bio-armor with dark, mottled patterns was now being covered at a visible speed by an even thicker layer of bio-mineralized armor, shimmering with the luster of rocks and shells.
This additional armor made his already imposing figure appear even larger, like an insurmountable rocky mountain.
"How come I didn't know that lighthouses had these steel lumps?"
With his left hand, Tie Che carried a massive tower shield almost as tall as himself, the edges of which were also covered with a mineralized layer. With his right hand, he dragged his terrifying biological hammer, the hammerhead leaving deep dents as it dragged across the ground, producing a piercing screeching sound.
Almost simultaneously, the sensors of the Iron Guards and the scanners of the mechanical Black Hawk and other devices issued alarms.
[Warning: High-energy biological reaction detected. Threat level: Extremely high!]
[Warning: A large-scale unknown energy field has been detected generating.]
at this time……
Not far behind Tie Che, in a relatively safe area, another figure emerged; it appeared to be a woman.
Coral stood there, her bio-armor—a blend of off-white, light brown, and coral pink—standing out conspicuously.
"Old Che, can you handle these things?"
She held the Guardian's Staff, the bio-crystal at its tip emitting a warm, bright yellow light, and asked.
Suddenly, a semi-transparent, massive bio-energy field covered with clear coral reef patterns rapidly unfolded around her, like an inverted giant bowl, enveloping her and the iron trident in front of her.
"I don't know, but as long as we're fast enough, we should be able to."
Tie Che was not an arrogant person; he would be cautious before engaging in combat.
"Then let's get started, Iron Claw, charge forward, I'll make sure you're indestructible."
Coral's voice came through the communication device, steady and full of strength.
Upon hearing this, a muffled response came from beneath the iron mask: "Alright!"
After saying that, he slammed the huge tower shield into the ground with a loud bang, completely sealing off the passage leading to the coral.
The combination of the mineralized layer and the bio-force field made him feel as if he were one with the earth.
"High risk detected... Prioritize defense target, focus fire!" The Iron Guards' AI made the judgment instantly, then raised their energy-accumulating electromagnetic laser guns and opened fire.
"Shhhhhhh!"
Twelve blazing electromagnetic laser beams instantly tore through the air, like a blue rain of death, precisely striking the iron giant's tower shield and body.
However, a shocking scene unfolded.
The electromagnetic laser beam, powerful enough to melt through heavy armor, seemed to hit an invisible, highly resilient wall when it struck the translucent coral reef force field.
The force field rippled violently across its surface, and the points of impact flickered rapidly, but none of the projectiles were able to penetrate it.
The laser's energy was greatly weakened and deflected by the force field. The remaining energy struck the iron giant's shield and armor, which were covered with biomineralized layers, only causing a burst of even more dazzling sparks and energy fragments, leaving not a trace.
Upon seeing this situation, the Iron Guard's AI seemed to experience a momentary lag in computation. Without detailed data, even intelligent AI technology could not fully analyze and decipher it.
Almost simultaneously, the invisible hunters also launched their attack.
Several highly focused red splitting rays silently emerged from the shadows, heading towards the eyepiece and joint gaps of the iron helmet.
They are hellhounds; they originally accompanied the Iron Guard, but they were simply using stealth.
But the iron giant didn't even move. The splitting rays were deflected and weakened the moment they came into contact with the bio-force field, ultimately leaving only a few shallow burn marks on the iron giant's thick mineralized armor.
Several hellhounds suddenly emerged from the optical camouflage and pounced, their alloy claws flashing with cold light and high-voltage arcs. Their shoulder-mounted pulse machine guns fired wildly, depleted uranium armor-piercing rounds raining down on the force field like a metal storm, producing a dense burst of explosions like raindrops hitting banana leaves.
The twenty mechanical black hawks also deactivated their stealth and flew in narrow spaces. The piercing beams from their beaks were like blue poison needles, precisely targeting the same area of the firing field to break through the surface. At the same time, their belly magazines opened, and sonic boom grenades and flashbangs rained down like hail.
"boom!"
Blinding white light burst forth one after another, but unfortunately, thanks to the enhanced biofield and protection maintained by the coral, these attacks had little effect.
The sonic boom and flash were greatly weakened by the force field, and the iron trident and coral inside only felt slight vibrations and changes in light.
The force field surface rippled continuously, yet remained incredibly resilient.
"If it weren't for you, I might not have been able to hold on."
Iron Tripod's body remained completely still, protected by the force field and its mineralized armor.
Coral's voice remained steady, but upon closer listening, there was a hint of tension from exhaustion: "Stop talking nonsense, I can't hold on much longer, Iron Claw, prepare to counterattack."
The light on the Guardian's Staff in her hand changed slightly, and an extremely fine cloud of spores, emitting a soft green light, began to spread within the force field.
When these symbiotic spores came into contact with the iron giant's armor and the mineralized layer on its body, they began to slightly promote the self-repair of its cell activity and material structure. Although slow, this process was a continuous recovery of the minor damage caused by the concentrated fire.
At the same time, Tie Che felt a warm current flowing into his body, and his muscle fibers and bones seemed to be subtly strengthened. His mind became more focused, which was the effect of the coral's "biological armor" buff.
Chapter 98 Steel Shark vs. Mo Cheng
Name: Coral (female).
Identity: Member of the Raging Waves Squad.
Realm: Mid-stage of the third tier.
Awakened Ability: Biofield.
It can deploy a semi-transparent bio-energy field with a coral reef texture around itself or in a designated area.
The force field provides powerful physical and energy defense and can slowly repair friendly armor and minor injuries within its range by promoting cell activity and material self-repair.
It can enhance the physical defense and mental resilience of friendly units within range, similar to applying a "biological armor" buff, making them more resistant to physical impacts, toxins, and mental interference.
It is a solid energy node, its force field is unbreakable, and its own defense is extremely strong.
Weapon: Guardian's Staff, a force field amplifier, also inlaid with a glowing bio-crystal at the top, used to precisely control the range, intensity and shape of the force field (such as hemispherical or wall-shaped).
Secondary weapon: Symbiotic spore generator, which releases a special spore cloud that slowly restores the health of friendly units within a force field, but the effect is slow and it is mainly used in prolonged battles.
Her bio-armor was heavy and dignified, with a color scheme of off-white, light brown and coral pink, and a surface with a textured surface similar to coral and a soft glow.
The helmet has a rounded shape, and the visor has a gentle, warm yellow light.
With a calm and reliable demeanor, he is like a pillar in the midst of a storm, a safe haven for the team during turbulent times.
……
"It's our turn!"
With a roar, Tie Che, braving the still frenzied attacks, suddenly raised his biological hammer.
"Buzz!"
The high-frequency vibrator of the hammerhead started, emitting a heart-palpitating low-frequency roar. His massive arm muscles bulged, and even the mineralized layer could not conceal the terrifying power.
Instead of rushing out, he firmly planted the tower shield on the ground as a fulcrum, and then, using the strength of his waist and abdomen, swung the vibrating hammer forward like hitting a golf ball.
"boom!!!"
It didn't directly hit anything, but rather, at the maximum distance the hammer head swung, an extremely condensed, visible milky-white high-frequency vibration shockwave emanated from the hammer.
His attack was like a small air cannon explosion, directly blasting into a fan-shaped area in front of him.
The three hellhounds, along with the barrage of bullets they unleashed, were hit by this pure physical shockwave.
"Crack!"
"Bang!"
The terrifying vibration instantly tore through the mechanical dog's outer armor, and the intricate internal structure shattered and short-circuited under the high-frequency vibration.
They were like toys slapped away by an invisible giant hand, tumbling and flying backwards, parts and sparks flying everywhere, crashing heavily against the wall in the distance, turning into a pile of scrap metal.
Several mechanical black eagles in the air were also affected by the edge of the shockwave. Their flight posture instantly went out of control, and they tumbled and fell. Their size made it impossible for them to withstand this level of shock.
Even the two Iron Guards at the very front were shaken back by the shockwave, their nanosuits fluctuating violently and their energy shields flickering.
