It has a vector jet backpack on its back and small adjustable wing-shaped stabilizers on both sides, providing aerial maneuverability and control.
The arm integrates a sophisticated source-guided gun launcher, seamlessly blending it into the body without compromising the overall aesthetics.
It possesses all-around three-dimensional maneuverability, capable of going up into the air and down into the ground, making rapid changes of direction in the air, and drifting at high speed close to the ground, with movements as smooth and natural as walking on flat ground.
The core equipment, the source mass inducer emitter, is hidden in the arm, enhancing the ability to interfere with and control a single target, and can induce energy over a wide area, affecting multiple targets.
It can create large-scale, more realistic energy illusions to confuse the enemy.
It can emit high-frequency shockwaves to paralyze the actions of a group of enemies for a short period of time.
His primary role is not direct killing, but rather acting as a battlefield rhythm controller, disrupting the enemy's formation and creating advantages for his own side.
The mech is made of a composite armor of non-Newtonian fluid materials and lightweight alloys. The material remains relatively soft to reduce air resistance and optimize maneuverability.
When struck, the material hardens instantly, greatly enhancing local defense and effectively resisting attacks.
……
Although Xu Tong's interference was effective, the number of Devouring Beasts was simply too great. Three or four Earth Salamanders still managed to break through the defense line. Their slimy bodies clung to the ground as they darted out like ghosts. Their head carapaces suddenly cracked open, and the retractable barbs hidden inside shot out like cannonballs, whistling through the air, and attacked the Mountain Ship, which had been steadily guarding the formation and controlling it in silence.
These barbed tongues attack from tricky angles and move so fast they leave only afterimages, easily piercing through ordinary armor.
The sudden, deadly attack didn't bother the taciturn maneuver; the Mountain didn't even attempt a significant evasive maneuver, merely making a token adjustment to its posture.
"clang!"
The piercing tongue struck the massive shield on the left arm of the Mountain Mech, which was cast as a single piece with the fuselage and featured a menacing ramming horn.
The moment the tip of the thorn made contact with the shield, a dark red energy flow flashed rapidly through the gaps in the rock-like composite armor on the shield's surface.
At the same time, the Mountain's sturdy, bridge-pier-like legs sank slightly, and the giant track plates with deep spikes on their feet seemed to be welded to the ground.
The composite protection mechanism of layered rock and the adaptive structure of earth vein resonance work together.
No matter how many attacks he endures, he can transmit his power underground.
"The weakness is the core of the neck."
A taciturn, somber voice came through the communication channel, "Is it only exposed when the mouthparts are extended?"
A salamander, stunned by its ineffective attack, retracted its stabbing tongue at the perfect moment, exposing its vulnerable core in its neck.
The taciturn man has moved!
The massive body of the Mountain Mech burst forth with a speed disproportionate to its size.
The massive shield on his right arm was not used for blocking, but rather transformed into a destructive hammer. Using the weight of his forward-leaning body and the immense power output from the power core, he smashed it out from below with an unparalleled and fierce shield strike.
This strike was devoid of any fancy moves; it was simply the purest, most primal power unleashed.
"Boom!"
The heavy shield slammed solidly into the junction of the salamander's jaw and exposed neck.
The sound of bones cracking was clearly audible. The earth salamander's roar stopped abruptly. Its entire head twisted backward at an eerie angle, and its massive body was lifted off the ground by this brute force, rolling backward and crashing down, kicking up a cloud of dust. It twitched twice and then stopped moving.
Its spirit seed, along with its neck bone, had been completely shattered by that attack.
Chapter 140 Xia Dou's Mecha
After taking down one, the taciturn steered the Mountain back to its defensive stance, the massive shield now in a defensive posture, dark red light flowing along its edges like an awakening volcano.
He was like a truly insurmountable mountain, able to withstand any ferocious attack with absolute steadiness, and then deliver a fatal and concise counterattack at the most opportune moment.
……
Mech Files: Mountain!
The taciturn Mountain is a super-heavy defensive barrier mech.
Its appearance is a deep mix of iron black and earthy brown, resembling mountain rocks.
It is extremely tall, majestic, and heavy, and can cause the ground to tremble when it lands.
Its lines are sharp and its angles are distinct, as if it were sculpted from the entire mountain peak.
With its layered rock composite protection, the thickness is exaggerated, presenting a multi-layered composite rock structure, making it visually indestructible.
The arms are giant shields cast as one piece with the fuselage. The shields have menacing ramming horns and solid edges, with extremely thick edges. They serve as both defensive tools and impact weapons.
Its legs are as thick as bridge piers, and its feet are giant track plates with deep-spiked traction spikes, providing unparalleled stability.
Its back has a huge, furnace-like power core that emits a dark red light and heat, which is the energy source that keeps it standing.
Superior defense, with a composite protection mechanism of layered rock and an adaptive structure that resonates with the earth's veins.
When subjected to impact, the ultra-thick physical armor not only withstands the impact but also efficiently diverts the force to the ground through a special structure, allowing the ground to share and mitigate most of the impact, greatly reducing the driver's workload.
The robust, pier-like legs, deeply embedded grip spikes, and massive track plates combine with the ground to achieve near-absolute physical stability.
Core equipment: Integrated giant arm shield!
It is itself the most robust part of the mech, and can be used for blocking and ramming.
Through energy connection, an all-around, all-around absolute defensive force field can be deployed on the front of the mech, providing protection that surpasses the limits of physics.
……
Just as the taciturn man stabilized the front line with his mountain-like defense and thunderous counterattack, and Xu Tong disrupted the enemy ranks with illusions and shockwaves, in the center of the battlefield, a machine with a design completely different from the other mechs was emitting a soft and strange light.
Unlike other mechas that are full of metallic sharpness and power, Xia Dou's Heart Whisper mecha has more rounded and smooth lines, and its body is covered with a special sensor coating.
Most striking are the four soft and flexible mechanical tentacles that gracefully extend from its back.
These tentacles are not weapons; their tips emit a soft blue light, like the bioluminescence of a jellyfish. At this moment, as Xia Dou focuses, they gently dance in the air, rippling out circles of invisible yet powerful soothing mental waves.
"Hmm... so many at once, my head's a bit crowded..."
Xia Dou muttered to herself, her little face under the helmet slightly furrowed, looking extremely focused.
Her mental power has been amplified to an astonishing degree through the Heart Whisper system.
Ahead, eight or nine snakes, having just broken through the barrage of fire, were roaring and preparing to pounce on the weakest link, the snake-dog, when their movements suddenly froze.
In their scarlet, ferocious eyes, the rampant killing intent began to dissipate and subside like mist blown away by a gentle breeze.
Instead, there was a kind of bewildered docility.
Xia Dou's mental energy was like the finest silk thread, precisely connecting to and covering the simple neural networks of these low-level Devouring Beasts.
It is not about forcibly seizing control.
Instead, they soothe their ferocity through a process akin to communication and guidance, implanting entirely new instructions.
The next second, something amazing happened.
The seven-headed serpentine dogs suddenly turned around, their eyes instantly replaced by the protective command given to them by Xia Dou. Without hesitation, they pounced on their uncontrolled brethren who were still attacking wildly.
A civil war between Devouring Beasts suddenly broke out within the Mana Ecosystem's camp.
A controlled snake-dog fiercely pounced on one of its kind, knocking it to the ground and tearing at its throat with its sharp teeth.
The other end used its body to deflect the barbed tongue launched by the salamander, and then tightly entangled itself with the other.
They hissed and clawed at each other, their actions no different from when they attacked humans, even more frantic, because only one thought remained in their minds:
Eliminate your companions and protect Xia Dou.
Xia Dou stood in the center of the battlefield, her four glowing mechanical tentacles dancing more and more rapidly. Maintaining such a large-scale mental guidance was a considerable burden for her, but she gritted her teeth and persevered.
She wasn't just in control; she was micromanaging.
Xia Dou manipulated a controlled snake-dog to deliberately create an opening, luring a salamander to miss its target, thus creating the perfect angle for Shan Da to deliver a powerful blow.
She then sent another snake-dog suddenly rushing towards a shadowy ruin, forcing out a spiky eel that was lurking near the Shattered Star sniping point. The eel was instantly incinerated by a precise electromagnetic cannon shot.
"Aww, Shan Da, I'll leave this place to my people... uh, my beast, hehe!"
Xia Dou was slightly out of breath, but her tone was full of a sense of accomplishment.
……
Mech Files: Whisperer!
Xia Dou's Heart Whisper is a mecha that combines telepathy and biological coordination.
It is pink in color and has a unique, round shape, like a giant bean pod, without any sharp edges or corners, making it look adorable.
The large, egg-shaped viewing window at the top displays light patterns representing different emotional states, such as lake-blue ripples when calm, and is adjustable.
Four graceful, ribbon-like flexible mechanical arms, called "spiritual tentacles," extend elegantly from the shoulders and back, each topped with a circular sensor that emits a milky-white halo and can float like jellyfish tentacles.
Its core functions, psycho-sensory amplification and biological coordination, can be achieved through four biosensory tentacles.
It can amplify and purify the user's faint mental signals, making every thought that is being conveyed clear and accurate.
Multi-target linking enables the establishment of stable mental connections with multiple targets simultaneously, achieving group communication or control.
It greatly enhances the user's clarity of perception of the emotions of other living beings.
This mech provides the user with an absolutely safe and warm mental haven, effectively isolating them from external noise and distractions, and protecting their mind.
With the enhancement provided by this mecha, Xia Dou's ability to control the Devouring Beasts has been comprehensively strengthened, allowing her to control at least seven ordinary Devouring Beasts.
Therefore, it greatly reduces mental stress.
In other words, Xia Dou is now a master of battlefield control, directly altering the balance of power between the enemy and allies on the battlefield by controlling the multi-headed Devouring Beasts.
……
At the same time, Xu Tong made a sharp turn in the air, quickly dodging the combined attack of the three-headed snake dogs. "It's strange, these guys seem much more active than usual."
Upon seeing this, Bai Yuekui's Pure Candle Horn finally moved.
The Tai Chi-shaped energy core on her chest spun faster, and a lightsaber made entirely of golden energy extended from her hand, its shape even more slender and sharp than the physical Tang sword Alaya-vijnana.
Chapter 141 Shandong University's Combat Capabilities
"Wine Song, prepare area-of-effect healing. Wumen, scout the surrounding area to see if any Flower Calyx Beasts are commanding the attacks. These attacks are too coordinated; it's abnormal."
Bai Yuekui's tone remained calm, but his eyes had become sharp.
With a gentle flap of the energy wings behind the Pure Candle, her figure instantly appeared at the densest point of the beast horde.
