"What? A mechanical monster?!" Hilco almost lost his composure, thinking he had misheard.
"Yes, that's right. A... a gigantic mechanical monster at least two meters tall. Our weapons are completely incapable of penetrating its steel armor..."
Due to excessive blood loss, the man with the broken arm had a very pale face and looked shaky, as if he would fall down at any time.
"Drink this." Hilco quickly uncorked the bottle of potion in his hand and handed it to his men. "It can save your life."
The subordinate visibly hesitated, obviously knowing the side effects of the shimmer potion.
But the person is about to die, who would care about those side effects?
He stretched out his trembling hand to take the potion, then took a deep breath, tilted his head back and poured all the purple liquid into his mouth.
Immediately afterwards, accompanied by a mixed sound of bones "crunching" and flesh "popping", the wound on the man's right arm healed rapidly, the muscles on his body grew and mutated rapidly, and purple blood vessels protruded from his skin.
"Ugh, uh, uh, ah, ah, ah..." The subordinate with the broken arm lay on the ground in pain, spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood that had turned purple and screaming in pain.
Soon, the glimmer potion had taken effect, completely transforming him and making his appearance almost beyond the scope of "human".
Glimmer Potion cannot regenerate severed limbs...
Hilco rubbed his chin and stared at the second subordinate who had been transformed by Weiguang. "How do you feel?"
The man stood up straight, and his height increased to a head taller than the two-meter-high bald and tattooed man.
He clenched his terrifying fist that emitted a dark purple light, and his fingers made a series of "cracking" sounds like broken bones, which made people feel creepy.
"I, I feel...power!"
"Yes, power." A faint arc appeared on the corner of Xierko's mouth. "Now, let's go deal with the mechanical monster you mentioned."
…
…
At the gate of the old cannery, Li Lin in power armor, Caitlin holding a Mauser rifle, and Jace who transformed his hammer into an energy cannon were charging forward.
After seeing the fighting power of the three men, Vandel's men who followed behind them silently chose to follow behind them to pick up any loopholes.
Wei, Boom, Craig, and Milo were also in the crowd, and were being closely watched by Benso's men to prevent them from running around or rushing forward to be killed.
"Jace, on your left!"
While giving the reminder, Caitlin aimed and shot without hesitation, accurately hitting a thug's thigh in a non-vital part, causing him to fall to the ground instantly and lose his combat effectiveness.
"clear!"
Jayce moved the direction of the energy cannon and pulled the trigger twice. The mechanical device drew energy from the energy crystal and then fired two blue-white energy balls from the top muzzle.
The surging electric light did not aim directly at people's bodies, but collided with the ground or walls, and only the shock waves generated by the energy collision knocked those people unconscious.
Whether it was the two of them or Li Lin, they would try their best not to kill anyone unless it was absolutely necessary.
Although killing these "soldiers" could also give Li Lin a small amount of experience, he grew up under the red flag and received a good education. He and these people just had different positions and no hatred, so he was still very resistant to killing.
"Clearance complete."
After Caitlin shot the last thug still standing, they managed to break the weak defense line of forty or fifty people on the periphery.
Afterwards, everyone, led by Li Lin, who was wearing power armor, quickly headed into the factory.
"What the hell is this monster?!"
"We can't even penetrate its armor. How can this still be called a battle? It's simply a one-sided crushing and massacre!"
"Hurry... hurry and find the boss!"
"You're not looking for a fucking Xierko, your life is more important, why don't you just follow me and run away!"
"No, don't kill me! I surrender!"
“…”
Firearms and cold weapons are fine, some of Hillco's men are equipped with alchemical amplification devices, so they can at least fight.
But faced with Li Lin's invulnerable exoskeleton power armor, Hilko's men had no desire to fight at all.
Coupled with Jace's seemingly inexhaustible energy and one high-powered energy cannon after another, they really couldn't stand it anymore.
This group of demoralized gang members either lay on the ground wailing after being beaten, or fled at the sight of Li Lin and his men, or simply dropped their weapons and raised their hands in surrender...
Not long after, Li Lin and his group arrived at the middle of the factory, where the remaining twenty or so men loyal to Hillco all gathered.
"Silko! You son of a bitch, let Fandel go!"
When Benso saw Hilco standing on the armored bridge on the second floor, he could no longer suppress his anger. He squeezed out of the crowd with a long knife, pointed at his nose and cursed him.
Hilko glanced at Benso coldly, his attention not on him at all, and he didn't even pay attention to him.
He looked up and down at the power armor at the front of the crowd. The pupil of his intact right eye shrank slightly, and he couldn't help but mutter, "This kind of machine didn't exist a few years ago..."
Li Lin controlled the power armor and walked under the iron bridge.
The heavy machines collided with the ground, producing a dull noise of footsteps that could be clearly heard in the depressing atmosphere of the factory.
He stopped when he was about six or seven meters away from Hilco.
"Hextech... Upper City people, why are you interfering in our Lower City dispute?" Hilco's voice was as cold as ice. "This is our own business."
