Chapter 81 Self-Destruction

The sound of blacksmithing in the courtyard continued, and everyone's focus shifted involuntarily.

Following the loud shout of a contractor, the guns and cannons that were originally aimed at Mandel and Elro turned their muzzles. Xu Yue, who was hammering excitedly, paused. When all the guns were pointed at him, a slight tingling sensation spread throughout his body.

Without any hesitation, when he sensed the beast's instinctive warning, he stopped hammering, protected the heavy hammer in front of him, and stomped his feet hard, and his body flew out backwards.

As soon as he got out of the mecha and lay down, a large piece of fireworks produced by the explosion burst out in front of him, and then a large number of bullet chains and shells passed through the fireworks and attacked him, but in the end they were all blocked by the heavy hammer in his hand.

The wide side of the Bolang hammer was like a shield, firmly protecting his upper body. Xu Yue held the hammer handle in one hand and placed the other hand flat, using his forearm to support the other side of the heavy hammer. Feeling the continuous impact from the heavy hammer, he slowly retreated.

When he retreated, he looked slightly beyond the heavy hammer and looked at the position of the mecha. The fireworks produced by the explosion had gone out, and a large amount of white gas appeared instead. The white gas was ejected from the various ejection holes around the mecha.

The fire that was originally tightly wrapped around the fuselage had already shown a tendency to disintegrate after losing Xu Yue's control. After the impact of the white gas, it was now directly dispersed.

After getting rid of the threats of the heavy hammer and the fire, the mecha finally regained its mobility, but the movement looked extremely stuck. After struggling to get up, the mecha was about to take a step, and a wisp of black smoke suddenly emerged from all parts of the body, and then the whole mecha fell straight down again as if it had died.

After Xu Yue's beating just now, the body of the mecha had been deformed in many places, and the internal circuits were also damaged by the fire. It was considered that this miner mecha was strong and durable that it was not directly scrapped.

Behind the heavy hammer, Xu Yue felt relieved as he watched the mecha fall to the ground. Although he didn't kill it in one blow, it was a good result to temporarily make it lose its ability to move. After losing the entanglement of the mecha, he could first deal with those troublesome fish, and finally deal with it.

The impact from the hammer surface continued, but the strength was continuously weakening. Xu Yue looked in the direction of the artillery fire. In addition to the flames from the muzzle, there were also bright holy light and blue thunder from time to time. Mandel and Elro were also exerting their strength. Under the wandering attack, they began to attract most of the firepower.

Now the intensity of the bombardment was not enough to make Xu Yue retreat. He lowered his legs and stood still, changed the posture of holding the hammer, held the hammer handle with both hands and swung it, first hammering the ammunition in front into pieces, and then he held the tail end of the hammer handle and began to rotate in place.

The Bolang Hammer seemed to have turned into a chain ball. As Xu Yue rotated, the hammer head turned into a black shadow, pulling out a whirlwind with Xu Yue as the center. The ammunition fired from the front was torn into pieces as soon as it entered the range of the whirlwind.

After rotating for more than ten times, the kinetic energy accumulated in the hammer head became more and more terrifying. When he felt that it was almost done, Xu Yue aimed at the target and let go!

The whirlwind formed around Xu Yue was directly torn apart when the heavy hammer flew out. Amidst the whistling sound, the heavy hammer shot out with overwhelming momentum. Under the gunfire, the heavy hammer destroyed all obstacles along the way. In the panic eyes of the contractors in the front row, the heavy hammer smashed straight into the crowd of mechanical envoys.

"Bang!"

The heavy hammer fell to the ground, the ground trembled slightly, and the dust flew. A contractor who was unable to dodge in time was smashed into minced meat on the spot. The heavy hammer stood in a pit, the front end was full of scarlet, and a silver palm fell on the hammer handle. The next second, the heavy hammer disappeared, and a pair of military boots stepped into the minced meat spread on the ground.

On the battlefield on the other side of the courtyard, the heavy hammer smashed a large piece of yellow smoke and dust in the center of the crowd gathered by the mechanical envoys. Outside the smoke and dust were the contractors distributed in a circle. Among them, the few closest to the smoke and dust barely avoided it at the critical moment. Now they are looking at the smoke and dust ahead, breathing heavily, trying to digest the fear that still lingers in their hearts.

Looking at the momentum in front of them, if they had hesitated for a second just now, they would probably have died on the spot.

"What's going on? What's coming at me? It's so noisy."

"I didn't see it clearly. I was busy beating those two natives."

Some contractors who were facing away from the smoke and dust outside the crowd were also attracted by the loud noise behind them. They turned their heads and asked. Several contractors who were watching the heavy hammer flying were about to speak when a whistling sound came from the center of the crowd.

A Fang Tian Hua Ji suddenly stretched out from the smoke and dust that had not yet dissipated. Before everyone could react, the long halberd had swung out a silver ring, and the fierce air wave swirled, tearing the smoke and dust into pieces, and with it, all the creatures within a three-meter radius.

Blood and flesh were splattered, and with Xu Yue as the center, the contractors three meters away were not hit by the long halberd, but they were also covered in the splashing blood. After the whole courtyard was quiet for a moment, a sharp scream suddenly rang out.

"Run!"

The contractors nearby were fleeing frantically, while the contractors in the distance were turning their guns. In the center, Xu Yue swept across the chaotic crowd around him, his eyes were indifferent, but a crack appeared at the corner of his mouth. He was so close to him that he still wanted to run?

A pit exploded under his feet, and Xu Yue disappeared as a black shadow. When he appeared again, a dying contractor was hanging on the tip of the halberd. Blood slid from the corner of the contractor's mouth and dripped onto the halberd head, creating a series of musical notes.

Noticing that the contract hanging on the halberd began to glow red, Xu Yue quickly raised the halberd head, and a corpse that was split into two pieces from the chest to the top fell to the ground, and the red light on the body disappeared.

‘The self-destruct skill can also be triggered when in a dying state, the triggering time is greater than three seconds, and it can be released after complete death. ’

After quickly sorting out the information obtained through observation in his mind, Xu Yue no longer hesitated. This self-destruct skill is not too difficult to deal with. The halberd in his hand swept across, and a running contractor on the right was cut in half by the crescent of the halberd. The body fell up and down on both sides. As long as the contractor who was about to self-destruct was eliminated within three seconds, it would be fine.

The military boots crushed the wailing head on the ground, and his figure disappeared again. In a flash, another bunch of blood flowers bloomed in the fleeing crowd.

Around Xu Yue, this group of fleeing contractors were basically long-range fragile skins. After being approached by Xu Yue, they were like sheep in the tiger's mouth and were slaughtered wantonly.

Most of those who chose the mechanical system were developing towards long-range bombing in the early stage. In the low-level adventure group composed entirely of mechanical contractors, 80% of the members were long-range, that is, the group around Xu Yue.

In addition, the strongest main tank mecha is still lying dead on the other side of the battlefield. The remaining few melee mechanical systems are far away from the rear because they are chasing Mandel and Elro. Now that they find that the rear has been lost, they want to go back for help, but they are entangled by the two people who just chased them.

Therefore, Xu Yue's slaughter of these long-range squishy skins was unhindered. In just one minute, the rear was completely cleared, and the roar of artillery fire on the battlefield finally stopped.

The sticky blood flowed along the silver metal skin. Xu Yue stood in a pool of blood and looked at several melee contractors who were stopped by Mandel and Elro not far away, and the Fang Tian Huaji in his hand whistled softly.

"You are the only ones left."

Three minutes later, as the tip of the halberd pierced the chest of the last contractor, Xu Yue turned the Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand, and the crescents on both sides seemed to turn into a meat grinder, grinding the contractor's upper body into a pool of rotten meat.

Looking around, only Xu Yue and the other three were still standing in the entire courtyard. The ground was full of blood, and there was not a single intact human figure among the corpses on the ground. Most of them were limbs and minced meat.

After the battle subsided, Elro looked at Xu Yue with a strange look in his eyes. Although he had killed many people as a military chaplain, it was the first time he had seen such a cruel and brutal killing method.

Xu Yue ignored Elro's eyes. He made the scene so tragic not because he was cruel, but because he wanted to ensure that the group of explosion maniacs in the Mechanical Corps would be completely killed.

As mechanical department, these guys are all masters of playing with bombs. The first thing they do when they join the group is to turn their bodies into a bomb that can be detonated by consciousness. As long as they have a breath left, they can drag the enemy away.

So Xu Yue chose to smash them into pieces. After all, this is the most straightforward way to die. There is still a chance of remaining a few breaths after cutting the throat and piercing the heart, but Xu Yue does not believe that they can still be conscious after being crushed into a ball of rotten meat.

Now the contractors in the courtyard have been basically cleared out, and the only threat is the dead mecha. Xu Yue casts his eyes to the position of the previous mecha.

But he found that the other party had stood up again. Except for the various pits left on the body by Xu Yue's hammer, the current mecha can't see the appearance of being scrapped and lying dead before.

The mecha stood alone in the corner of the courtyard, and the red single eye swept over the broken corpses on the ground in front of it again and again, as if confirming something.

After continuing this action for a few seconds, the mecha's single eye met Xu Yue's still indifferent gaze, and the red light in the single eye became more and more intense.

"You are very good, really very good..."

The electronic sound became louder and louder until it became a sharp tone:

"I will kill you, die for me!!"

With a sharp howl, the mecha began to run, and as the speed increased, the red light at the mecha's single eye began to spread to the whole body.

As the target of the collision, Xu Yuekong shrank suddenly and quickly realized what the opponent was going to do. The self-destruction of ordinary contractors has considerable power. Once the mecha in front of him, which is more than three meters tall and weighs several tons, self-destructs, the power is absolutely unimaginable.

The opponent has obviously started the self-destruction program. Although it is not clear whether the self-destruction time of this mecha is also three seconds, even if it exceeds three seconds, it will not be too long. It is obviously impossible to break the opponent's mecha in a short time. Before, he had hammered nearly a hundred hammers in a row and did not smash the opponent. Now it is completely a foolish dream to think that it will only take a few seconds.

So the only way to survive is to hide. All the pros and cons flashed through Xu Yue's mind the moment he saw the red light of the mecha. He first shouted to the two people around him who were preparing to meet the enemy.

"Quick, make a hole in the ground, the other side is going to self-destruct!"

After the instructions, he quickly put the Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand aside, and then took out the Bo Lang Hammer in the storage space. A bone ring on his finger began to emit a faint blood light. The barbaric skill that he had not been willing to use when fighting against the mecha before was decisively activated at this moment.

Barbaric (active): consume 10% of health points, self-strength +3, physical strength +2, pain reduction 20%, duration 5 minutes.

After the barbaric was activated, he felt that the blood in his body was boiling and burning, and the surging power surged to his limbs. Without hesitation, after the strength increased, he held the Bo Lang Hammer in his hand and swung it a few times before throwing it with all his strength. The heavy hammer carried a tremendous force and hit the leg of the mecha that was rushing towards him.

The calf, which was already badly injured by Xu Yue's beating, was bent back directly after another collision with the flying hammer. After a crisp sound, the mecha with broken calf fell heavily to the ground while running.

After seeing the mecha land, Xu Yue didn't care about the flying hammer. He picked up the Fang Tian Hua Ji standing beside him and turned to look. At this time, there was a nearly three-meter-deep pit behind him, with holy light and thunder flashing inside.

It was Mandel and Elro who were still digging the huge pit. They were both reliable. When they heard Xu Yue's serious expression telling them that the mecha was going to self-destruct, they reacted quickly and didn't waste time asking Xu Yue questions. Instead, they quickly started digging the pit.

After all, even such a powerful commander was so anxious, it was hard to imagine how powerful the next self-explosion would be. In order to save their lives, they used holy light and thunder together, almost using all their strength, and only then dug a nearly three-meter-long hole in a few breaths.

Seeing that the pit had been dug, Xu Yue breathed a sigh of relief. After shouting and dodging, he jumped down with his halberd held high. Without knowing the power of the explosion, he naturally made the pit as deep as possible. The crushing ability attached to his Fang Tian Hua Ji was undoubtedly a sharp weapon for digging pits, at least stronger than Mandel's spear and Elro's staff.

At the moment Xu Yue jumped down, a gap suddenly appeared in the metal wall to his east. A tall knight stood in front of the gap and shouted excitedly to the inside:

"Boss, I'm here to save you!"

Before he finished speaking, a dazzling white light exploded in front of his eyes, followed by a surging explosion shock wave and surging flames.

"Boom!!!"

The explosion resounded through the eardrums, and all the knights in the isolation cover were stunned for a moment by the huge sound. A huge fireball exploded in the courtyard. The unparalleled flame impact and air wave caused the four metal walls around the courtyard to tremble violently. The small gap in the east wall spurted out a large piece of flame, and the tall knight also spurted out with it.

In the courtyard, because the impact of the explosion was blocked by the four surrounding walls and could not be vented, all the impact began to surge upwards. At this moment, the base of this mechanical mission seemed to have become a large artillery, and the four walls were metal barrels.

The surging flames and black smoke rushed into the sky and hit the isolation cover in the air. After only a second of stalemate, the isolation cover collapsed.

After being freed from their restraints, the sound waves of the explosion spread from the courtyard. The entire outer city heard the explosion that resounded through the sky in the silent night. Except for the ordinary people who were hypnotized by the bells, all the surviving contractors were awakened. The outer city of the imperial capital began to boil in this explosion.
