The battlefield in the Chaos Realm was a chaotic mess. Psionic beams and explosions echoed one after another, and scattered metal fragments danced in the air, like a dazzling yet dangerous fireworks display. Dozens of Foundation Establishment-class mechas attacked desperately from the periphery, while in the center, several Golden Core-class mechas wielded light-energy weapons like behemoths. Sword energy surged, tearing the Foundation Establishment mechas to shreds. Psionic flames licked the charred wreckage, and the ground was covered with deep cracks and traces of battle.
On the edge of this infernal battle, the mechs of Zero, Shadow Killer, and Black Tortoise Guard huddled like three rats behind a shattered ruin, their camouflage lights flickering faintly, clearly trying not to be noticed. Shadow Killer stared at the battlefield through his optical camera, his eyes gleaming, and he kept muttering, "Oh my god, this is so exciting! Just watching it makes my blood boil. If they can injure us a little more, a little more, we can go up and take advantage!"
The Xuanwu guard adjusted his giant shield while shrinking the heavy mecha. "Taking advantage? Do you think it's a bone for a wild dog to gnaw on? Boss, do you really want to do this job? Why do I see those Jindan mechas? They think they can eat us after the fight."
Zero's voice came over the communication channel, calm and unpredictable: "Don't be impatient, don't focus on these small parts and small repairs, take a long-term view."
The Shadow Killer turned around in confusion: "What are you doing if you're not picking up spare parts? Are you just watching a show?"
"Look at that Jindan mecha in the middle." Zero said slowly, a hint of joking in his tone, "The light energy sword in its hand is definitely of a high level. Our target is it."
The Shadow Killer was stunned for a moment, then suddenly stood up the upper body of the mecha: "Rob? Boss, you mean - we should steal things from that giant beast? This sounds crazy, but I like it!"
The Black Tortoise guard was sweating so much that the screen in his helmet was almost covered with sweat. "Zero, that's a Jindan-class mecha! Have you forgotten the scene where it just cleaved three Foundation Establishment-class mechas with a single sword strike? I don't want to become its fourth 'achievement'!"
Zero said calmly, "Don't worry, just follow the plan. Xuanwu, jump down from a high place and hit him on the head with your shield. Just knock him unconscious. Shadow Killer, stab him in the crotch with your dagger. Don't be afraid. No matter how powerful the Jindan mecha is, it will have to protect itself if it's hit. I'll pick up the sword if it falls. Then run. Cooperate well."
The Xuanwu guard was shocked: "My big shield hits its head? What if it fails to stun me and gets angry?"
Zero interrupted ruthlessly: "Even if you are unlucky because you are angry, try to hit the target accurately and don't talk nonsense."
The Shadow Killer was delighted when he heard this, almost clapping his mecha's legs in excitement. "Smash the head, poke the crotch, this plan is perfect! Boss, it suits my temperament perfectly! Leave the job of stabbing the crotch to me, I guarantee precision and no dragging my feet!"
The Black Tortoise Guard was so eager to slam his giant shield into the Shadow Killer's face: "Why are you so happy?! If I jump down with a shield on my head, I can't say for sure whether I will be killed or not!"
Zero replied coldly, "Don't you always brag about your 'Xuanwu invincibility'? Now I'm giving you a chance to prove yourself, so hurry up." Shadow Killer added fuel to the fire, "That's right, Xuanwu, you're a mobile fortress, and you're afraid of falling? The boss told us to charge because he thinks highly of you!"
The Xuanwu guard sighed helplessly: "This is not respecting me at all, this is using me as cannon fodder!"
"Life without danger on the battlefield is not called excitement." Zero blocked the retreat of the Xuanwu guards with a simple sentence.
The Shadow Killer laughed so hard he fell backwards. "Xuanwu, don't dilly-dally. This is a great opportunity! If we succeed, we'll be legends in the Spirit Realm!"
The Xuanwu guard raised his giant shield and remained silent for two seconds, his tone filled with helplessness and despair. "Alright, it's my fate. Don't let me down, or I'll beat you to death when I get back!"
"Don't worry, you're the one who's letting the team down!" Shadow Killer was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. Zero shouted in a low voice: "Action!" Three mechas rushed out from the ruins, sneaking towards the battlefield like three cunning shadows. The sounds of fighting around them covered up the sound of their every step forward.
"If we're going to do it, let's do a big one!" Shadow Killer was so excited that his mecha was almost shaking.
Like three silent ghosts, the three mechas silently approached the heart of the chaotic battlefield. Their thrusters, after undergoing a Chiyan-level upgrade, were silent, their agility so nimble that one couldn't help but wonder if they were imbued with some strange cloaking power. The Black Tortoise guards slowly maneuvered their massive mechas, taking each step cautiously, fearing detection. They couldn't help but complain, "Boss, that guy's spirit sword can chop a person to pieces. Are you sure this plan won't make us a laughingstock on the battlefield?"
Zero's tone was as calm as ever: "Trust my judgment, don't think too much about anything else." He controlled the mecha to adjust the angle, his eyes always fixed on the spirit sword of the Jindan mecha, as if he had already won.
Shadow Killer was so excited that he was almost incoherent in the communication channel: "This is exciting! Boss, after we get this deal, can we go to the black market and have some fun? I heard that the wet body image package released by the Hehuan Sect recently is very popular, and the price is almost enough to rob my spirit stone card!"
Zero sighed helplessly: "Shadow Killer, can you please be a little more professional and stop dwelling on those unreliable things?"
The Shadow Killer chuckled: "What do you know? If I can really grab the spirit sword this time, I will probably be able to buy enough to buy two years of collection! Then I will be-"
"Shut up," Zero interrupted ruthlessly. "Remember the plan: hit the head, grab the crotch, pick up the sword, and then run. No unnecessary movements during the whole process, and don't even think about looking back to watch the fun, understand?"
The Shadow Killer laughed incoherently: "I understand! Don't worry, Boss. I will hit you in the crotch with precision this time. No time will be wasted!"
Zero ignored him, intently observing the battlefield. After exchanging simple hand signals, the three mechs separated in unison, stealthily moving towards the Jindan mech at the heart of the battlefield. Thrusters operating at minimum power, each mech's movement was precisely controlled, shielded by the sounds of explosions and fighting.
The Xuanwu guard took a deep breath, raised the heavy giant shield, and muttered in a low voice: "Okay, my big shield is ready... But boss, you have to reimburse me for the repair costs this time! If this thing is broken, I really won't have money to repaint it!" He gritted his teeth, adjusted the angle, and locked the giant shield firmly above the head of the Jindan mecha, ready to dive down from a height at any time.
Shadow Killer rubbed his hands together, his mecha's dagger already unsheathed, the blade reflecting the flickering light of the battlefield. His voice trembled with excitement. "Target locked, Boss, leave the crotch stab to me. I guarantee a one-shot kill!" Zero replied calmly, "Just be careful not to get crushed into a discus by the Jindan mecha."
Although the entire communication channel was filled with the Shadow Killer's dirty talk and the Black Tortoise Guard's wailing complaints, the three mechas' movements were precise and orderly, like three stalking venomous snakes, gradually approaching the core of the battlefield.
