The energy from the fingertips touched the barrier, but it was like a drop in the ocean, without causing any ripples.
"Tsk, it's a bit hard." Duan Yu withdrew his hand and looked around. The barrier was transparent and invisible, yet indestructible, trapping them like a huge cage.
Ye Ling also tried to attack the barrier with his mecha, but failed as well.
She even turned on the mecha's overclocking mode, but the barrier remained motionless, without even a crack appearing.
"Is this thing made of turtle shell? It's so hard!" Ye Ling couldn't help but complain.
The two began to look for the weak points of the barrier. They felt along the edge of the barrier, but found that the barrier was a whole and there was no so-called weak point at all.
The energy within the barrier became increasingly dense, beginning to exert pressure on their bodies and mechas.
Ye Ling felt that breathing was a little difficult, and the energy of the mecha was consumed faster than usual.
"Is this thing trying to suffocate us to death?" She couldn't help but complain.
Duan Yu's expression also became solemn. The energy within the barrier was still increasing. If they couldn't find a way to break through, they would be in real danger.
At this moment, Ye Ling suddenly remembered that there were some special symbols about energy interaction in the core information of the ancient mecha.
I haven't been able to decipher it before, but now it seems that it may be related to this barrier!
She immediately calmed down and carefully recalled the shapes and arrangements of the symbols in her mind, and gradually came up with a bold guess.
"Duan Yu, cover me!" Ye Ling shouted softly, sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to try to control the mecha according to his own understanding to release a special energy wave.
Although Duan Yu didn't know what she was going to do, he stood in front of her without hesitation, looking around vigilantly, ready to deal with any emergency at any time.
As Ye Ling controlled the mecha, a faint golden light began to emerge on the surface of the mecha. Unlike before, this light flickered, like breathing, with a strange rhythm.
Duan Yu felt the energy fluctuations around him becoming chaotic, and the barrier seemed to be affected in some way, starting to flicker slightly...
"Done?" Ye Ling opened her eyes, a glimmer of excitement flashing in her eyes.
She looked at Duan Yu and was about to speak, but her expression suddenly changed, "Wait..."
The barrier flickered more and more violently, like a ball of energy about to explode.
Duan Yu understood what he meant and immediately injected his power into Ye Ling's mecha. The two energies merged and emitted a dazzling light, like a sharp sword piercing the sky!
"Break it!" Ye Ling shouted, and the energy output of the mecha reached its peak. The barrier finally couldn't withstand the powerful impact and shattered!
The energy shock wave generated by the explosion shattered the surrounding rocks, and dust flew up, covering the sky and the sun.
When the smoke and dust cleared, the two could see the scene behind the barrier clearly - a huge energy source was quietly suspended in the air, emitting a soft light and beating rhythmically like a heart.
"Holy crap, we're rich!" Ye Ling couldn't help but exclaimed. The purity and scale of this energy source far exceeded their imagination. It was simply a huge treasure!
But before they could be happy for too long, something strange happened!
The ground began to shake violently, accompanied by a harsh sound of metal friction. Countless mechanical puppets broke out of the ground, flashing a cold red light, and surrounded them.
"Oh my god! What's going on? Are they serious?!" Ye Ling complained and immediately controlled the mecha into combat mode.
These puppets move swiftly, have strong attack power, and are numerous. They are obviously guards protecting the energy source.
"Cover me!" Ye Ling shouted to Duan Yu, and the mecha shuttled flexibly between the puppets. The energy sword in his hand swung like the wind, cutting down the approaching puppets one by one.
Duan Yu used his ability to interfere with the puppet's actions, creating opportunities for Ye Ling to attack.
The two of them cooperated well, and for a while they were evenly matched with the large number of puppets.
Just as the battle entered a white-hot stage, Ye Ling suddenly felt a powerful energy wave coming from the direction of the energy source. She looked up suddenly, her pupils suddenly constricted, "Not good..." She grabbed Duan Yu's arm, "Let's go!" Ye Ling grabbed Duan Yu, but not to run away, but to push him into the pile of puppets!
"Hey buddy, stay calm!" Duan Yu:?
?
?
The next second, Ye Ling explained her "good intentions" with practical actions.
The energy output of her mecha suddenly increased, and golden light surged out like a tide, not only enveloping herself, but also covering the unsuspecting Duan Yu and the surrounding puppets.
That’s right, these “experience monsters” all over the screen would be a waste if you don’t use them!
The puppets' attacks landed on the golden light, but instead of hurting them, they seemed to be absorbed, making the golden light even more dazzling.
"666, this move is simply amazing!" Ye Ling couldn't help but boast about herself, and the villain in her heart had already started to dance proudly.
This energy barrier was already shaky, and the "selfless dedication" of the puppets' energy was simply the last straw that broke the camel's back!
"Boom——" With a loud bang, the barrier was completely shattered. The energy shock wave of the explosion blew the puppets into pieces, and the parts were scattered all over the ground like a metal fireworks display.
The energy source quietly hovered in the air, emitting an alluring light, as if saying, "Come and get me!"
Ye Ling and Duan Yu looked at each other and saw excitement in each other's eyes.
"We're rich!" they both shouted in unison.
Back in the laboratory, Ye Ling couldn't wait to connect the energy source with the core of the ancient mecha.
Buzz—the core emitted a dazzling light, and previously indecipherable information poured into Ye Ling’s mind like a waterfall.
"It's done!" Ye Ling clenched her fists excitedly. With this information, she could fully upgrade the mecha and even surpass the existing mecha level!
However, huge gains also mean huge risks.
Ye Ling looked at the core in her hand, her eyes gradually becoming deeper, "The fun has just begun..." She picked up the core and turned to walk towards the Mecha Academy laboratory...
