Chapter 264: Clear Spring Altar
Lightning, Fire, Ice, Hurricane...
Various Elemental attacks, under the vast support of Magic Power, are being continuously guided and transformed, creating a chaotic disaster composed of Elements that would never coexist.
Even at Tier Six, mechanical units not specially reinforced against Magic Power defenses can hardly endure for half a minute in the face of the furious Magical Power.
Even though each Elemental impact is not powerful, under the wave-like attacks, mechanical units face only this outcome.
Merely one encounter, and the losses for the mechanical units are already approaching fifty thousand.
Watching this rising number within his territory, even Xuanxing's mechanical intellect could not help but be astonished.
On one hand, he is shocked by Fan Mao's exhibition of strength, on the other, he feels the pain of his losses...
"Are those the powers of the mechanical?
No! There seems to be traces of Magic there, combined with specially engineered symbol devices? Perhaps more accurately termed as symbol devices incorporating mechanical principles...
Unexpectedly, Fan Mao possesses such capability in mechanics..."
Even though many of his soldiers could be described as 'fleeting', the transformation and charging process of those mechanisms were always under his observation.
Regarding those sundials engraved with runes, he struggles to classify them as mere 'mechanics'.
Aside from this, the power exhibited by those 'mechanics' astonishes him even more!
"Space ability, and the incorporation of metal control ability.
It seems this mecha is Fan Mao's strongest unit in terms of metal control, so these space abilities must originate from Sibais, or maybe it's some kind of superpower?
And the subsequent abilities can be termed as planetary weapons..."
Xuanxing feels reflective, but his mobilization across the communication network doesn't cease at all.
Even though the recent loss was severe, isn't battle always unpredictable?
Moreover, it's not just Fan Mao who is holding back...
In the virtual map that only he can see, besides the red dots and crosses representing enemies and recently fallen units, more green dots had already formed a pocket formation, quickly converging on the battlefield.
Although those attacks appeared terrifying, they were essentially unexpected beginner's kills; as long as preparations are made, those attacks aren't as formidable as imagined.
Apart from some rapidly pursuing units, the majority of mechanical units promptly received orders to head to the nearest mechanical bases, joining the assembly line for modification.
In less than a minute, mechanical units completed the entire journey, and emerged with plenty of new armor and mechanical modules.
While the magical disasters appeared terrifying, they were evidently first-generation weapons with actual damage not being very high.
Simply strengthening specific defenses can easily resist them.
Even those 'fat guys' dominating with space abilities are not difficult to target.
——Even though the mechanical technology route is pursued, insights on dealing with magic and space abilities are possessed.
And the latter is even more coincidental, leveraging the growth honed by Sibais.
Though he hasn't mastered genuine space technology, mere interference is manageable.
Won't build walls, but smashing them is straightforward, isn't it?
With almost the entire planet covered by mechanical assembly lines, these mechanical production lines originally located in separate Lords' territories make the entire modification process very swift.
With just two minutes of time, the modified mechanical units regrouped and rushed back to the battlefield.
Equipped with energy support from the fusion towers spread across the planet, nearly every mechanical unit poured energy as if it was free.
Though being mechanical creations, tightly suppressed by the opponent's metal control ability.
But who said one must use their weaknesses to face the opponent head-on?
Even metal control has its limits!
Just don't approach, don't wander into the scope of the opponent's ability, even if metal control can instantly kill his mechanical units, as long as the opponent is not granted the opportunity to unleash abilities, it's useless?
Just like an assassin planning to cut down a shooter, as long as you don't give the opponent a chance to approach, what's a one-hit kill?
Once the shooter extends distance and exploits the advantage of a longer range, no matter how damaging the assassin, they must kneel!
And coincidentally, his mechanical units are precisely such 'shooters' with an attack range far exceeding ordinary!
Though their cutting attempt was a bit weak, there's no shortage of explosive output.
With nearly unlimited energy supply combined with ultra-long-range attacks surpassing those of Fan Mao's units, rounding it up is an advantage for me!
Of course, that's in the ideal scenario.
From previous sparrings with Fan Mao, Xuanxing firmly believes Fan Mao surely has further moves, constantly observing the actions of the opponent's insect swarm and mecha.
But even with early preparations, when the 'unexpected' truly occurred, it caught him off guard.
He never imagined that even when the opponent's displacement sprint was successfully prevented, the opponent ultimately wasn't engaging in melee, and directly revealed long-range attacks!
And long-range attacks were foreseen, this was also anticipated in the original calculations, after all, Fan Mao had already demonstrated such formidable biological modification capabilities, being able to incorporate correspondent abilities wasn't surprising.
