Chapter 661 One Against Eight!
A thought flashed through Foros's mind. Dense martial aura gushed out, resembling a miniature star. Facing the hundreds of thousands of mechanical soldiers in the sky, he pushed out with both palms. The thick, detached aura transformed into a beam of dark red light, striking Han Xiao, who was protected by the mechanical legion.
The outer layers of mechanical soldiers were blasted open directly, fragments scattering like sand washed away by a tide.
Cannon fodder-type mechs couldn't stop the A+ grade martial artist's aura attack. The four Oathkeepers moved, standing in front of the detached aura, simultaneously releasing shields, forcibly holding back Foros's aura and preventing him from advancing.
A flash of electric light appeared in Han Xiao's eyes. Esoteric Mechanical Force swept out, covering all the mechanical soldiers under the splash of the [Esoteric Mechanical Force Field]. The next moment, he waved his hand, and hundreds of thousands of mechanical soldiers fired at the same time, forming various formations and attacking Foros with different tactical modes.
The fierce battle erupted!
The huge mechanical legion overwhelmed Foros, and this small battlefield appeared in the center of the main battlefield. The surrounding fleets were still fighting each other. The war domain didn't care about one-on-one duels. Fleets fired from time to time, wanting to help Foros blast apart Black Star's mechanical legion. However, Zero's organization was not to be trifled with.
Although the other Beyond Grade A's were watching the show, they still had the guts to command the fleet to provide cover for Han Xiao.
Moreover, the outer mechanical soldiers were all floating shields, and any attacks that came were blocked.
A Beyond Grade A Mechanic who went all out was capable of fighting a fleet alone!
However, Han Xiao focused all his energy on Foros.
Millions of ion cannons crisscrossed, like an airtight net, continuously attacking Foros. He dodged and parried, relying on the driving force of the high concentration of martial aura, charging and tearing apart mechanical soldiers.
The armor of most conventional mechanical soldiers was like paper in front of Foros. In A-grade battles, the role of conventional legions was to provide firepower and tactical containment, constantly grinding down health and stamina. With Han Xiao's surging Esoteric Mechanical Force bonus, Foros had to dodge. Being focused on by hundreds of thousands of mechanical soldiers was not a joke.
Although he was confident in his body's strength, a man had to treat himself well.
The main force of the battle was a small number of A-grade elite mechs, such as the multiple improved versions of the Oathkeeper, Phantasm, and so on. Their individual strength naturally couldn't exceed that of a Beyond Grade A, but when they cooperated, they could pose a threat to a Beyond Grade A. Even the chief vanguard officer under the Overlord, who was famous throughout the Star Field, couldn't blow up an Oathkeeper carrying a shield, with sufficient energy, and thick armor in three or two punches.
Han Xiao wandered among the mechanical legion, moving extremely fast and constantly changing direction, making it difficult for Foros to lock onto his position.
Foros didn't dare to stop and maintained high-speed movement, dodging the continuous attacks, quickly analyzing the battle situation in his mind.
"I must find an opportunity to break through and decapitate, otherwise, I will be piled to death by the sea of people."
Foros had fought against army stream mechanics before, and he knew very well that once he was caught in the siege of the mechanical legion, he would be exhausted sooner or later. He couldn't underestimate the attack power of hundreds of thousands of mechanical soldiers.
The weakness of army stream mechanics was the breakthrough and decapitation, the main body being the breakthrough point.
"Black Star has the nickname of the Undying Body… However, he can't be more difficult to deal with than the mechanical legion."
Foros's eyes narrowed, and his aura exploded, using some kind of skill, his charging speed increased many times, turning into a dark red lightning bolt, smashing through the encirclement of mechanical soldiers, quickly approaching Han Xiao, and a fierce fist containing endless power suddenly smashed towards Han Xiao's neck.
Just as the fist was about to hit, Han Xiao's figure suddenly disappeared. The next moment, he appeared in another direction of the mechanical legion, using High-Dimensional Void Travel.
Then, Foros launched charges towards Han Xiao time and time again, all of which were easily avoided by Han Xiao. Void Travel, Chaos Physique release, Mad Ape's short-range warp module, and other abilities were used in turn. Foros couldn't even touch his clothes, and the long-range detached aura was easily dodged.
Foros's face became more and more ugly. According to the information from the war domain, he thought that Han Xiao would rely on his strong body to rush up and fight him head-on, so he could teach him a lesson. He didn't expect him to be so slippery.
Han Xiao's thinking was quite clear: after all, he was a Mechanic. Before the mechanical legion was exhausted, there was no need to rely on his physical defense to rush up and get beaten.
Physical defense was a trump card, so it was naturally the last to be revealed. His task was to contain the eight vanguard officers, using the mechanical legion to entangle Foros. Entangling him until he couldn't stand it would attract other vanguard officers to come and dismantle his mechanical legion together, so he could hold back more vanguard officers.
Otherwise, with just physical defense, although Foros couldn't kill him, he would definitely be suppressed and unable to fight back, so he wouldn't be able to be cool.
Han Xiao had more long-term considerations. As long as he completed this tactical mission, he could obtain advanced knowledge to complete his class advancement. Exhausting the mechanical legion was a good excuse to withdraw from the next period of the battle and go back to fish and recuperate, using the newly improved abilities to create a new mechanical legion.
The Purple Crystal Civilization would overcompensate for the losses.
He knew that the expansion of the war domain was unstoppable. With Zero's organization's current performance, they would definitely be defeated in the early stages. He didn't want to keep fighting a losing battle, so he might as well retreat bravely and go home to fish.
When the situation became bad and the Purple Crystal became anxious, thinking about his performance, they would take the initiative to ask him to fight, so he could take advantage of the big spenders.
Han Xiao had always liked to fight in person while using the army stream, but at this time, he chose a serious tactic, using amazing dodging abilities, repeatedly resolving Foros's breakthroughs. The strength of the army stream mechanic was immediately displayed to the fullest!
Although the number of mechanical legion losses continued to increase, Foros's stamina consumption was even more severe. Hundreds of thousands of mechanical soldiers, the quantitative change had already produced a qualitative change. With such a dense and frequent attack frequency, no one below Beyond Grade A dared to stand still and resist, unless they had special tanking abilities.
The damaged mechs were repeatedly pulled up by Han Xiao with [Waste Modification] and [Mechanical Life Extension], as if they were endless.
Both sides saw that Foros was like a bug trapped in a net, rushing left and right, completely falling into Black Star's battle rhythm. The legion added to Han Xiao's high-intensity Esoteric Mechanical Force bonus, as well as the 42% attack power increase provided by [Transcendent Power] level 170. Foros's individual strength advantage was greatly offset.
"He's holding back the chief vanguard officer!"
Many A-grade powerhouses in Zero's organization were invigorated.
It was good news that Black Star was able to fight the chief vanguard officer.
However, everyone was not too surprised. Black Star was no longer an unknown person. There were also many stories circulating in the Star Sea, and he was also the strongest member under the Dragon Emperor. Being evenly matched with the Overlord's chief vanguard officer didn't seem surprising.
Leif was a little anxious. Black Star promised him to contain the eight vanguard officers, but at this time, only Foros was being contained. The other vanguard officers were still destroying the fleet. If Black Star wasn't in a fierce battle, he would have urged him.
Dodging hundreds of ion cannons again, Foros looked at the wandering Han Xiao, feeling extremely unhappy.
Black Star's difficulty exceeded his expectations.
Foros still didn't think that Black Star was his opponent. In his opinion, as long as he could seize the opportunity, victory would be his sooner or later. However, the two had been dragging on for a long time, which was contrary to his original intention of making a quick decision. He couldn't help but get angry. His patience was completely exhausted.
"Hunting Blade, Mazarks… come and help me dismantle Black Star's mechanical legion. Let's see where he can hide!" Foros shouted.
The other seven vanguard officers who were dealing with the fleet around them were quite surprised when they received the order. They knew that Foros had said that Black Star would be dealt with by him alone. Why did he need help now?
The seven naturally gave face to the chief. Besides, Black Star had just provoked them. They turned their seats one after another and killed Black Star and Foros's small battlefield, turning into seven meteors and crashing into the mechanical legion.
With the eight vanguard officers joining forces, the situation instantly deteriorated, and the mechanical legion was greatly destroyed.
"Black Star can't hold on anymore."
The A-grade powerhouses of Zero's organization who were watching the battle felt a thud in their hearts. However, facing the eight vanguard officers, they didn't want to risk supporting them. Before the mechanical legion was exhausted, Black Star still had a chance to retreat.
Foros stared at Han Xiao, and if Black Star had a tendency to retreat, he would immediately rush up to interrupt him, not preparing to let Han Xiao escape.
However, to his surprise, even though the situation was declining, Han Xiao was still wandering and fighting, without any intention of escaping, making Foros's vigilance useless.
"What is Black Star doing? Why isn't he retreating yet?!"
"Doesn't he know that he will die if he continues to fight!"
The Beyond Grade A's who were watching were shocked, with puzzled expressions. Black Star was crazy. Was he going to fight eight people alone?!
Mechanical fragments floated all over the sky. Only one-tenth of the mechanical legion remained. Foros and the eight of them finally stopped and looked at Han Xiao, who had also stopped, eyeing him like tigers watching their prey, ready to pounce at any moment.
Taking a look at the few remaining mechanical soldiers, Han Xiao was indifferent. The opponents were eight vanguard officers after all. This result was within his expectations. It was difficult to face the siege of eight people with just the mechanical legion.
However, there was insurance compensation, so Han Xiao didn't feel bad at all. Instead, he chuckled and sent a voice message to the eight vanguard officers.
"Hehe, in the end, you still have to gang up on me."
Foros's face was ashen, and he said in a deep voice, "Quickly finish him off. Let's see if he can still laugh."
"Are we really going to gang up on him?" Mazarks asked in surprise.
"Since we've started a siege, let's go all the way." Foros said coldly.
The other seven had no objections. They were only watching them duel because of Foros's reputation. Now that Foros wasn't playing anymore and took the initiative to ask them for help, they wouldn't stop halfway. The war domain didn't care about duels. Concentrating the strong to make a quick decision was the key.
The eight vanguard officers rushed up, and Han Xiao took a breath and met them head-on. In the eyes of the watching Beyond Grade A's, Black Star's back was stained with a sense of determination to die.
Everyone was moved!
They didn't understand why Black Star was working so hard, willing to risk his life!
Eight meteors hit Han Xiao's body again and again. The heavy fists bursting with martial aura brought out countless afterimages, bombarding every inch of his body.
How many thousands or tens of thousands of punches did Black Star take? The onlookers couldn't count at all.
Everyone had a feeling of sadness for their own kind, and they couldn't bear to watch anymore. Black Star's end would definitely be being torn apart by the eight vanguard officers, like a sheep entering a tiger's den.
But the next moment, they suddenly rubbed their eyes, unable to believe what they were seeing!
Although Han Xiao was beaten very badly by the torrential rain of heavy blows, flying around, and even his armor was shattered, his body was still strong, enduring countless heavy punches, and he was still so lively!
Foros and the eight of them stopped abruptly, looking at Han Xiao in the middle with surprise and uncertainty.
The martial aura they had just unleashed was enough to destroy half the surface of a medium-sized planet if it was evenly distributed. Black Star was still alive?
"Blood-Blue Conversion is really reliable, and there's also the Adamant Body, which has offset a lot of true damage. But these guys' damage is a bit terrifying. I almost had to use Aurora's character card."
Although he was being suppressed, Han Xiao had been calmly analyzing the battle situation.
Seeing the eight of them stop, Han Xiao took a breath, rubbed his shoulders and neck, and showed a carefree smile, which was more useful than any provocation. Foros's face turned ashen. He only felt that this smile was full of ridicule and irony towards him, as if saying, "Why don't you continue?"
At this moment, everyone's expression seemed to freeze.
Leif was ecstatic. Black Star could really withstand the eight vanguard officers. He was serious!
The many A-grade powerhouses of Zero's organization were horrified. Those eight enemies were not ordinary natural disaster grades, but the famous eight vanguard officers of the war domain, whose reputation resounded throughout the Star Field!
Foros and the others were full of surprise and anger. The eight of them had only lost to the Overlord Herber when they joined forces!
They couldn't believe that Han Xiao had also withstood their offensive.
It was as if an indomitable raging wave had crashed into a cliff, exploding into shattered spray!
A title of Black Star's floated into everyone's minds, forming an indelible thought.
This is the legendary… Undying Body?!
