The Mech Touch

Chapter 6375 The Final Charge

"What do you mean?"

"#@#@&@!"

"THERE IS NO CAUSE FOR NEGOTIATION. YOU ARE THE HUMAN CALLED THE DEVIL TONGUE. YOUR SPEECH IS A WEAPON. THE BEST WAY TO DENY YOU THIS WEAPON IS TO AVOID ENGAGING YOU AT ALL. THE ONLY ACCEPTABLE RESPONSE IS TO FIGHT!"

Damn, the Distance Shaper was unwilling to play into Ves\' plans!

If they started to talk, then Ves could distract and stall the orven phase lord to the point where the powerful orven phase lord no longer rendered any assistance to his fellow peer.

Obviously, the Distance Shaper saw through this scheme and denied Ves at the first step.

In the next second, a fairly strong spatial storm erupted all around Ves!

Many of the nanomachine plagues that formed his raiment started to get torn apart from all of the violent spatial activity!

What alarmed Ves the most was that the nanomachines could not offer any significant resistance against the raging storm!

Their lack of transphasic properties made them a lot more vulnerable to extraordinary attack than was normally the case!

"Goddamn fleeters! Why are they still fooling around with outdated, dead-end

technologies! Why can\'t they replace their stock of nanomachine plagues with more modern transphasic variants?!"

He was being unfair towards the Red Fleet. The fleeters were well aware that numerous weapons of mass destruction have fallen behind the times. They were already in the process of replacing or upgrading their older stock.

The problem was that their production capacity was limited. It took time to renew all of their expansive stockpiles. Their main warfleets enjoyed the highest priority and received the latest toys first.

A less important reconnaissance cruiser that had been diverted to a protection mission had fallen so low on the priority list that it would probably take a year or more before the Babylon Excavator received a newer batch of strategic goods.

In any case, the sudden elimination of a lot of nanomachines caused Ves to become directly exposed against the storm.

What alarmed Ves quite a lot was that this area attack was so effective that it even managed to bypass his spatial barrier!

"Sure enough, a greater phase lord always has tricks up his sleeve!"n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

While

spatial storm did not inflict too much damage on Ves\' true body, but that did not mean he enjoyed it either! He quickly withdrew in order to escape the range of the greater phase lord\'s attack.

"Cover the professor!" Major Jankowski roared. "Overload your space supressors if you

must!"

The surrounding mechs all converged upon Ves and used their space suppressors to weaken the effect of the storm on Ves.

Although the Distance Shaper\'s attack did not fade entirely, the assistance of all of the mechs at least reduced the damage to a more tolerable level.

Ves merely felt as if he was being subjected to a severe electrical massage treatment rather than getting torn apart in every direction.

The orven greater phase lord began to form a ball of violent warp energies in his hands. "#$&#@$."

"YOUR RELIANCE ON YOUR TECHNOLOGIES WILL BE YOUR UNDOING. ONLY GODS CAN DEFEAT GODS. AS SOON AS THE ARENA LORD OF YA\'GWASA ELIMINATES THE GREATEST INHIBITING SOURCE, I WILL SUBJECT YOU TO TRUE TORMENT!"

Ves and the others had no choice but to take the Distance Shaper\'s threat seriously! Fort Rock had indeed played an indispensable role in stacking the deck in their favor. The aliens originally wanted to rely on the 5 arche lesser phase lords to demolish this space fortress, but now that they had been defeated, the Arena Lord simply decided to do the job himself!

"Tusa!" Ves transmitted to the Dark Zephyr! "You need to make your move quickly! It will be too late once he destroys Fort Rock!"

"What do you think I am doing?!" Tusa spat back as his Dark Zephyr swooped in and disintegrated another chunk of phase lord flesh with the Destroyer weapon. "This damn Arena Lord is just too large! If I try to attack a more important organ, he is always ready to push me back with his Saint Piercer. If I try to attack something less important, he will just take the wound without slowing down."

Everyone had expended a lot of resources by now. However, the greater phase lords had much greater endurance and staying power, which meant that they would definitely be able to take advantage of the moment that Fort Rock went down!

As the Arena Lord closed in on Fort Rock while fending off a storm of attacks coming from multiple directions, the greater phase lord remained undaunted even if his body started to shed phasewater-infused blood at an increasing rate.

Ves felt pressured by this situation. He had used up a lot of cards, but still had a few left that he could employ.

For example, he could attempt to test the spacetime bubble\'s isolation capabilities by trying to call in the Destroyer of Worlds with the help of Emma\'s spiritual fragment.

He could also use up the Worclaw energy that he had managed to accumulate in his true

body.

A lot of time had passed since he last expended it, which meant that there was enough energy to fuel a powerful attack.

Then there was the radiant lottery ticket that he had yet to expend.

Ves was very reluctant to use up these resources, though. They were trump cards that he might need to withstand greater dangers during his visit to Yernstall. Sure, the Red Two implemented the highest security measures in this critical central star node, but Ves would be a fool if he took all of this security for granted.

He had made a lot of enemies in the last half-year. Wading into politics meant that he had displeased a large amount of interests. This ambush was just one of the consequences of stirring up a lot of trouble.

As long as his enemies wanted to eliminate him badly enough, it was not unthinkable to prepare another ambush for him. Perhaps this time his next attackers would learn from the mistakes made from this attempt!

"You need to believe in your ability. You can\'t stop the Arena Lord without taking a risk. You have been saving up your Ultimate Ability, am I right?"

Saint Tusa nodded. "You are right. I have already warmed up the Ultimate Module in preparation for activating my ability at any time. What target do you suggest? I am thinking about attempting to sever one of his upper limbs. As long as his grip on his Saint Piercer has weakened, I can take much greater risks in my attacks."

Ves had paid attention to the Arena Lord\'s physique and combat footage. He did not

have much hope for his plans.

"It\'s not enough. Even if you can sever one of his limbs, the Arena Lord is liable to grit his teeth and continue forward. You need to be a lot bolder than that. Nothing less than a decisive blow will cripple this greater phase lord. You need to overcome one of your fears and execute an attack that will either kill you... or give you a devastating new weapon against other phase lords."

Tusa had a bad feeling about this. The way Ves talked to him was similar to when the crazy mech designer proposed to poison his body with a drop of phasewater-infused

blood!

"What... what are you talking about, Ves?"

"The Arena Lord may still be in fighting shape, but his defensive layers have been stripped. As long as you aim your Dark Wind Passage Ultimate Ability inside the Arena Lord\'s massive torso, you can carve your way inside his chest and abdomen cavity where most of his phasewater organs reside. If his internal organs hasn\'t crushed your ace mech somehow, you can do a lot of damage that will definitely weaken and deprive the

Arena Lord\'s powers."

"Are you crazy Ves?! Do you even know what you are talking about?!"

"This is not a whim. This is a viable idea. I think you can pull it off. The central premise of this idea is to take advantage of their larger sizes. The larger they become, the more space they offer inside their bodies. This is perfect for an ace light skirmisher like your Dark Zephyr! You can not only cement the defeat of the Arena Lord with a single gambit, but also threaten to do it again to the Distance Shaper."

Though Tusa wanted to reject this crazy plan, the more he thought about it, the more he thought it might actually work!

Since there was not enough time for Tusa to perform a proper cost-benefit analysis, he allowed his gut to steer his decision.

His eyes narrowed. "A part of me wants to do it. I don\'t want to deny this wish." He already thought about the steps he needed to take to pull it off. There were many sketchy parts to his plan, but they could not suppress the excitement welling in his

heart.

"LET US DO THIS." The Dark Zephyr eagerly said. "IF YOU WANT TO EMBODY TRUE FREEDOM, THEN YOU CANNOT LIMIT YOURSELF TO MORTAL FEARS. A MORTAL DOES NOT DARE TO INVADE THE ARENA LORD\'S CHEST CAVITY. A GOD HAS NO

SUCH INHIBITIONS."

The mention of freedom triggered a strong desire inside Tusa.

"Blackwing!"

"Chip chip!"

The companion spirit jumped inside the Ultimate Module and started to channel more true resonance to it. The Dark Zephyr quickly started to darken as shadowy energies accumulated inside the mech frame.

The ace light skirmisher no longer circled around the Arena Lord either. Instead, the living mech charged at the enemy powerhouse on a straight trajectory!

The Arena Lord of Ya\'gwasa most definitely noticed this change. He may appear to be advancing towards Fort Rock, but his true purpose was to bait the Dark Zephyr into launching a foolish attack that he would be able to impale with his Saint Piercer! While Tusa had carefully chosen the angle of attack, the Arena Lord turned around so

abruptly that the ace pilot barely had any time at all to steer his machine away from a direct strike!

While Tusa was barely able to steer the Dark Zephyr away, he did not command his

mech to turn around entirely.

Instead, the ace light skirmisher skimmed past the Saint Piercer and continued on until

he was about to collide against the greater phase lord\'s lower torso!

"Dark wind passage!" Before the collision was supposed to occur, the Dark Zephyr pointed the eager tier 3

Destroyer spear forward and turned into an incredibly fast black streak that actually

punched right through the Arena Lord\'s body!

The Arena Lord instantly convulsed in pain! The injury he received this time was much

more serious than the previous attacks!

"$#@!"

"HOW?!"

"It\'s because I am fast!" Saint Tusa laughed!

The harebrained scheme devised by Ves actually worked!

The charge attack worked out a lot better than the ace pilot expected!

Even if the results were successful, Tusa instinctively judged that his Dark Zephyr would

only get past a few sturdy flesh layers before being forced to a standstill. What actually happened was that the tier 3 Destroyer weapon pierced through many organic obstacles, thereby enabling the Dark Zephyr to sink much deeper before the Dark Wind Module expended its charge.

This happened to deliver the Dark Zephyr into a more ideal location. There were dozens of strange phasewater organs located in every direction, and while a pair of them had squished the ace light skirmisher, the tier 3 Destroyer spear was already starting to break them apart!

The Dark Zephyr concentrated his Saint Kingdom and exploded with power!

The Arena Lord appeared to have no measures inside his body that could repel an enemy

as powerful as an ace mech!

Since that was the case, the Dark Zephyr could go on a complete rampage, though only

long enough before the greater phase lord devised a quick solution.

"Let\'s wreck this place up, partner!"

"I LOVE THIS SPEAR. CAN WE KEEP IT, TUSA?"

"We should bring it up with Ves after this battle. We need to win first, though!"

"HAHAHAHA! NOW THAT WE ARE INSIDE, THE ARENA LORD IS TOAST!" Diving inside the body of a greater phase lord was the most ridiculous feat that Saint

Tusa and the Dark Zephyr had pulled off so far! The two intended to make the most of this situation!
