The abandoned mine's terrain was as complex as a maze on the map. Team Zero, under Ling Ruoxi's precise long-range cover, retreated in an orderly fashion. Shadow Killers and Black Tortoise Guards held the line, gradually drawing the battle into the narrow confines of the mine, stretching the distance between the two sides.
"Escape?" Lin Aotian sneered, manipulating the heavy armored mecha to forcibly break into the mine. The mecha's huge body looked particularly formidable in the mine tunnel. "This struggle is in vain!"
However, he soon realized that something was wrong: he was in the front, while his teammates' speed dropped significantly due to terrain restrictions. The entire team had been split into two sections by Zero, intentionally or unintentionally.
Zero spoke calmly, "Shadow Killer, ambush from behind from the left mine tunnel; Xuanwu will block their pursuit head-on, Ruoxi will suppress the firepower from a distance, and Ruochen..." He paused, his tone slightly lingering, "You go and take out the auxiliary mecha, can you do that?"
Ling Ruochen's face was filled with dissatisfaction: "How could I not be able to do this? Just wait and see, I'm going to show you the art of operation of the young master of the Ling family!"
Ling Ruoxi quickly stopped him: "Ruochen, calm down, don't get yourself killed on impulse!"
"Sister, don't worry, I'm a professional!" Ling Ruochen snorted, controlling the light guerrilla mecha to quickly sneak into another branch, completely ignoring his sister's worries.
Shadow Killer grinned and said, "If the boss says it's okay, then it must be okay! This terrain is tailor-made for us!" His mecha quietly turned on the stealth mode, and he went around the flank to the rear of Lin Aotian's teammates, holding his breath and waiting for the opportunity.
Lin Aotian finally realized that the situation was not good: "Don't be distracted by them! Team assemble, target Zero, kill him first!" The spiritual energy of his Jindan heavy armor fluctuated violently, and he forced himself to accelerate to break through the constraints of the mine tunnel, but found that he was always suppressed by Zero.
Zero's Qi training-level mech slithered through the mine like a slippery loach, nimbly weaving back and forth in the narrow space and occasionally delivering a precise strike. Lin Aotian's right leg mech's psychic energy circuit had been repeatedly disrupted, causing transmission delays and jerky movements.
"What's wrong with this guy? The Qi training mecha can actually reach this level!" Lin Aotian's expression turned from contempt to anger, "How can the speed be so fast?!"
At the same time, Ling Ruochen located the enemy's auxiliary mecha. He approached the target silently from the back of the mine tunnel, the entire mecha hidden in the shadows, like a cheetah ready to pounce.
"Ruochen, don't mess around!" Ling Ruoxi's voice sounded again in the channel.
"Sister, stop nagging!" Ling Ruochen stared at the location of the other mecha's shield generator, a smug smile on his face, "Watch me, I'll definitely kill you with one strike!"
He suddenly activated his guerrilla mech and rushed to the side of the auxiliary mech at an extremely fast speed. Before the other mech could react, his lightsaber had already accurately penetrated the shield generator. The psychic shield collapsed instantly, and the other mech burst into violent sparks. The alarm immediately rang out across the battlefield.
The driver of the auxiliary mecha panicked. Without the support of the shield, he was completely exposed to the attack range, and the tactical fulcrum of the entire team was in chaos in an instant.
The Shadow Killer took the opportunity to launch an attack: "This kid actually did it! Not bad, Young Master Ling!" His mecha quickly repelled another foundation-building mecha of the opponent, buying precious buffer time for the team.
Ling Ruoxi breathed a sigh of relief, but her tone remained serious: "Your performance this time is acceptable, but don't get too complacent!"
Ling Ruochen laughed triumphantly: "Sister, don't worry, from now on, just watch me, your younger brother, surpass you step by step!"
Shadow Killer couldn't help but tease, "Don't be so arrogant, kid. Your operation is just passing. If it weren't for the boss's layout and cover, you would have been surrounded by the enemy like a sieve by now."
Ling Ruoxi held her forehead and sighed: "Forget it, I'll just be thankful that I'm not holding you back."
At this moment, the situation in the mine began to reverse, and the enemy's formation was completely broken. Lin Aotian watched his team's tactical advantage gradually disintegrate and roared, "Everyone, attack with all your might, we must save the situation!"
Zero's voice sounded faintly: "You no longer have this opportunity."
Lin Aotian's mech stood alone in a narrow corner of the mine, its dark armor covered in scratches, its psychic glow dimmed. His teammates had long since been defeated, leaving him alone to fight. A system notification echoed through the mine: "Mech status severely damaged, psychic core transmission failure."
"This is impossible! I'm Lin Aotian!" He roared and slammed the control panel, his eyes bloodshot with anger. "How could I lose to a bunch of losers like you?!"
Zero's Qi training mech slowly approached, its psychic shields nearly intact. Its movements were crisp and decisive, like a hunter confident of victory. Zero's voice came softly, "You didn't lose in strength, but in judgment."
Lin Aotian was trembling with fear: "Judgement? Stop talking nonsense, let's have a head-on confrontation and see who can win!" He controlled the mecha and swung a huge psychic lightsaber at Zero, trying to use his last strength to save the situation.
However, Zero dodged his attack with a simple turn, then lunged at the core of his mecha at high speed. The lightsaber pierced through the armor, a dazzling flash of light flashing across it. Lin Aotian's mecha emitted a piercing alarm, and then its psychic energy was completely extinguished, paralyzing it in the mine tunnel.
[System prompt]: The enemy's main mecha was killed, and the flag belongs to Team Zero!
When Shadow Killer saw the system prompt, he jumped up and said, "We won! Boss, you're awesome! This is what we call tactics, this is what we call operation! Lin Aotian, learn from this!"
Ling Ruochen was incredibly excited on the communication channel: "Sister, did you see that? Wasn't I so handsome just now? Without me, you might have had to fight for ten more minutes!"
