Chapter 195 Fifth Speaker
"This...what is this?"
A fourth-ranking member of parliament exclaimed in shock, feeling a deadly threat emanating from these steel behemoths.
Ao Sha's eyelids twitched violently, and an ominous premonition surged in his heart: "Impossible, spatial summoning technology? You, how do you have a mecha of this level? Who exactly are you?"
Chen Yuan's figure slowly rose and merged into the cockpit of one of the Sea Emperors, establishing a consciousness connection.
The voice amplified by the mecha's loudspeaker: "I said before, I'm here to collect a debt. Now, the hunt continues. Try your best to survive as long as possible and please me."
The moment the words left his mouth, the sensors on the eyes of all six Poseidon mechs simultaneously lit up with a bloodthirsty crimson light.
The giant thrusters on its back unleashed terrifying vortices, propelling the massive machine like a six-headed, raging deep-sea monster, launching a devastating charge towards the horrified Ao Sha and his companions.
……
Coastal Alliance, Fifth Speaker Ao Sha.
Known as the Bone Warlord, he is the supreme commander of the Allied Army's defense forces.
A bald giant, as muscular as a bear, with bronze skin covered in scars.
He had a hideous scar running from his forehead to his jaw, a mark left from a battle with a king-level Devouring Beast.
The bio-armor is the heaviest of the five council members, and is grayish-white, resembling a combination of a giant clam shell and a reef in the deep sea.
Its arms are two huge, combinable shields, and its legs are armored like bridge piers.
During combat, the armor surface rapidly secretes a mineral matrix, forming an ultra-hard bioceramic layer.
Awakening abilities, two types:
1. Skeleton Forging: Not only can it generate skeletal armor and weapons, but it can also frantically extract calcium and minerals from the battlefield environment, including the corpses of Devouring Beasts, to make its own armor infinitely thicker and deformable, and even instantly create terrain obstacles such as bone prisons and bone walls, making it a veritable mobile fortress.
2. Plunder and Absorption, which can be released both passively and actively: With each physical strike he inflicts, he can slightly absorb the target's energy and matter to repair his own damage.
When Shark Shatters an enemy's bones or defensive structure, it can perform a massive looting attack, instantly restoring its health and enhancing its subsequent attacks.
……
The battle was about to begin. The six Poseidon mechs resembled Attack on Titan, their massive size and cold steel bodies creating a strong visual impact against the surrounding writhing biological structures and several ferocious sea beasts.
"Arrogant? Hmph! The deep sea is our home ground. Go up there and tear them to shreds!"
The Fifth Speaker, "Skeleton Overlord" Ao Sha, roared and spurred his fourth-tier sea beast, the Skeleton Sea Dragon, to launch the first attack.
The skeletal sea dragon opened its massive maw, unleashing a white, decaying breath that shot towards the leading Sea Emperor mech like a water arrow.
Almost simultaneously, Chen Yuan's consciousness synchronized with the main mech, and he issued a cold command: "Charge in formation, prioritize eliminating enemy sea monsters."
Unit One, with its shield fully activated, stood at the forefront, enduring the breath attack head-on.
Units 2 and 3, superconducting torpedoes lock onto the keel joints, fire.
The pulse cannon of the fourth mech saturates the enemy's back row of councilors with a barrage of fire.
Units 5 and 6 (Chen Yuan) rush towards the Fifth Speaker.
The No. 1 Sea Emperor mech, which was attacked head-on, instantly deployed a huge diamond-shaped deflecting energy shield in front of it.
The bone dragon's decaying breath struck the shield, unleashing a blinding surge of energy, but it failed to budge it in the slightest.
On the other side, dozens of launch ports instantly popped out from the heavy torpedo pods on the shoulders of the No. 2 and No. 3 Poseidon mechs.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
A series of specially designed superconducting torpedoes, trailing a deep blue tail, bypassed the front at an astonishing speed and shot towards the joints of the skeletal sea dragon's limbs and neck.
Ao Sha was startled and quickly manipulated the bone dragon to dodge, but there were too many torpedoes and they were very fast.
"Boom boom boom!"
A violent explosion erupted on the skeletal sea dragon's body. Although its bones were incredibly hard, its joints were still relatively vulnerable. After being bombarded repeatedly, it let out a painful hiss and its movements froze.
At the same time, the pulse cannons on the arms of the No. 4 Sea Emperor mech were fully charged, and thick pulse energy beams swept towards the fourth-level councilors.
"spread!"
The councilor, Rift Tide, roared and hurriedly leaped off Thunder Demon Ray's back.
The energy beam grazed the edge of the manta ray, electrocuting it until its body was charred black and it screamed in agony.
Another senator, [Poison Kiss], narrowly avoided the attack, but the [Venom Jellyfish] beneath her was hit by the aftershock of the pulse and instantly evaporated most of its body.
"my darling!"
[Poisonous Kiss] She screamed in heartache, her eyes turning venomous.
Meanwhile, Chen Yuan, controlling the No. 6 main mech and the No. 5 mech, faced off against Ao Sha head-on.
"Protect the Speaker!"
Councilor [Reef Shield] roared, riding a giant [Tridacna Giant Turtle], blocking Chen Yuan's path.
The giant tortoise's shell instantly emitted a thick, earthy-yellow light, forming a massive bio-energy shield.
"The mantis' arms are like a chariot!"
Chen Yuan snorted coldly, and the superconducting impact anchor on the right arm of the six mechs suddenly popped out. The huge anchor tip spun, carrying the momentum to tear everything apart, and smashed into the energy shield.
"Click!!"
The shield shattered after only a second, while the shock anchor continued its momentum, slamming directly into the giant tridacna shell.
The giant tortoise let out a mournful cry, its shell smashed into a huge dent, and the [Reef Shield] on its back was also shaken, spitting blood as it flew backward.
"Damn it!"
Seeing his subordinates severely injured, Ao Sha was consumed by rage. He abandoned his wounded skeletal sea dragon, leaped from its back, and unleashed a dazzling light with the giant skeletal hammer in his hand, forged from the spines of countless Devouring Beasts. It slammed down on Chen Yuan with the power to shatter mountains and split seas.
This strike contained all the power of his peak fourth-tier strength, and even resonated with the surrounding seawater.
Faced with this fierce attack, Chen Yuan neither dodged nor evaded, and the pulse cannon muzzle on the left arm of the main mech shone brightly.
"boom!"
A pulse of energy, several times thicker than before, surged forth like a runaway blue dragon, directly colliding with Ao Sha's massive skeletal hammer.
The collision of energy and bone hammer produced a blinding light, and a terrifying energy shockwave spread out in a ring, briefly pushing aside the surrounding seawater to form a vacuum sphere.
"Ugh!"
Ao Sha felt as if his giant hammer had struck a falling star. The destructive pulse of energy not only negated his attack but also frantically eroded his arms and body along the weapon, causing his bio-bone armor to shatter inch by inch.
Chen Yuan's main mech only swayed slightly, and the muzzle of the pulse cannon emitted scorching white steam due to overload.
High judgment.
"Impossible... How can your armor be so strong?"
The Poseidon mech, with its defensive capabilities comparable to a fifth-tier weapon, caused Ao Sha's tiger mouth to split open, dripping with blood. He stared in disbelief at the cold steel creation before him.
The power he relied on for fame was so utterly ineffective in the face of such technological power.
Chapter 196 Purgatory and Blood Rose
"I do not believe!"
Ao Sha unleashed his source potential, increasing his power to fight Chen Yuan. The two transformed into two beams of light and clashed, relentlessly using various techniques to attack each other.
After exchanging more than a dozen blows, Ao Sha was ultimately outmatched and suffered a severe injury, quickly falling to the ground.
Chen Yuan piloted the main mech, walking step by step towards the heavily damaged Ao Sha. The cannon began charging again, and a cold, mechanical voice announced the final judgment:
"That's enough for the warm-up, now you can go die."
The Fifth Speaker was on the verge of falling.
The other councilors were also tightly bound by the other five Poseidon mechs and were unable to be rescued.
An atmosphere of despair began to spread within the Sea Alliance.
However, at this critical moment...
A vast, profound pressure, as if the entire ocean were enraged, descended from the deepest part of the core nest area.
A calm yet furious voice clearly echoed through every corner of the battlefield and into Chen Yuan's mech: "Enough, outsider. You've gone too far on my turf."
The First Speaker, Cangming, known as the "Lord of the Abyss," released powerful spiritual energy to communicate with Chen Yuan.
This late-stage fifth-tier powerhouse, a being that resonates with the ocean itself, instantly brought immense variables and unimaginable crises to the battle once again with his intervention.
Chen Yuan's mecha sensors issued the highest level of warning, but a smile appeared on his lips beneath his visor: "So, the main character has finally arrived?"
……
Just as Chen Yuan was about to deliver the fatal blow to the heavily injured Ao Sha, the immense and profound pressure did not strike directly. Instead, two other equally powerful yet distinctive auras approached from different directions at an astonishing speed.
"Om..."
The seawater to Chen Yuan's left instantly turned pitch black and viscous, as if even light and sound were swallowed up, and a deathly silence that froze the mind rapidly expanded.
The Third Speaker, known as "Captain of Annihilation," emerged from the darkness, riding a colossal, ghostly Leviathan composed of shadows and shipwreck debris.
"You dare to lay a hand on me? Just try it!"
The voice of Purgatory seemed to come from the cold abyss of the Nine Netherworlds. The Soul-Plucking Hook and Anchor Blade in his hand were pointed at Chen Yuan. The Ghost Leviathan also let out a silent roar, making a very imposing entrance.
Almost simultaneously, the seawater on the right was stained with an ominous dark red, and countless tiny blood plague spores, like red dust, spread out, accompanied by a hissing sound that corroded life and energy.
The Fourth Speaker, known as the "Scarlet Witch," sat elegantly atop the back of a massive and vibrant blood coral queen, her long scarlet hair swirling in the spore cloud, a bewitching and cruel smile on her face.
"Tsk tsk tsk, what vibrant life essence... It's a pity, it's about to become a snack for my darlings."
Xue Wei licked her red lips, her fingertips entwining deadly crimson energy threads. "Brother Purgatory, don't kill me all at once. I want me alive so we can play with me slowly~"
The two council chairmen, one of whom controls annihilation.
The other spreads a blood plague, creating a pincer attack.
The Fifth Speaker, Ao Sha, who had been seriously injured by Chen Yuan, began to act arrogantly, cursing under his breath.
"What are you babbling about?" Chen Yuan slit his throat.
