Chapter 362 - 179: Prolonged Assault Without Success
Although there’s not much brotherly affection with his third brother, they are still siblings bound by blood, so it’s impossible not to care.
Gu Ningyi instinctively feels that there must be many untold stories and secrets behind this, but since he needs to compete now, any further investigation will have to wait until they are offline. Moreover, Brother Gu is taking an "unconventional path," as a Star Thief Leader, he’s involved in all sorts of dark dealings and has complex connections far surpassing those of Gu Ningzhi.
Even though Su Jiameng’s identity is perfectly masked and concealed, by linking various pieces of information together for analysis, you can still find some clues. The day Su Jiameng’s true identity is revealed is approaching.
Despite Su Jiameng being labeled as the "suspected third wife," Gu’s battle spirit rises rather than declines!
At this moment, Su Jiameng is already hitting her stride; under her control, Ghost Shadow seems like a true "smoke-like shadow," elusive and dreamlike. No matter how many people are attacking, she can still handle everything easily. Her dazzling maneuvers leave the audience dumbfounded.
The standard weapon of Ghost Shadow is a Short Dagger, with hundreds of energy cannons and other powerful gun barrels hidden around its body for fighting, ensuring a one-hit kill without giving the enemy any chance to breathe.
Pursuing "assassination," Ghost Shadow’s design leans heavily towards this function. Although Su Jiameng has driven Ghost Shadow before, it was usually for tasks of back-stabbing. A direct confrontation like now is the first time!
In direct combat, some of Ghost Shadow’s advantages are surely diminished, but Su Jiameng loves to play to her strengths and turn disadvantages into advantages.
With the situation tense, after dodging the joint attack of two Mechas, Su Jiameng maneuvers Ghost Shadow, opening the joints at the shoulder to reveal a large-caliber Energy Cannon. After buffering, she repels one Mecha while disabling the mechanical arm of another Mecha, turning it into a sandbag to block shots.
"I want to see who can hold out longer!" Ghost Shadow performs a short-distance space jump once again, dodging attacks while reverse-cutting with a Short Dagger, slicing open the solid metal shell of a Mecha, its energy pipeline severed, and its energy engine directly scrapped.
The control ability of the Jialanluo Clan over unmanned Mechas is truly terrifying, with combat effectiveness of one against a thousand not just mere talk.
Unfortunately, that Jialanluo clan member hasn’t fully grown, there’s still a long way to go until mastery. Manipulating so many Mechas for prolonged attacks is becoming strenuous for him. She can stall for time, but the opponent can’t afford to wait.
Once again, Ghost Shadow performs a flashy airborne spinning kill, with several gun ports around its body firing at the same time from angles that are extremely tricky. The Short Dagger draws a brilliant blue light once more, cutting through the joints of the enemy Mecha.
After controlling nearly a hundred Mechas for over half an hour, even though Theo Mossley has had powerful spiritual power since childhood, he’s finding it tough, and soon shows flaws under Su Jiameng’s relentless counterattacks. Before he can even silently note "trouble," two more unmanned Mechas are lost. Cui Hu on the ground takes a deep breath, changes the command strategy, "Plan A failed, execute Plan B!"
Upon hearing this, Theo Mossley takes a deep breath, wipes the cold sweat from his forehead, and the verdant blue leaf pattern in his eyes flickers. The Mechas tangled in combat in the sky change their fighting rhythm, with the previously leading unmanned Mechas now moving to a support attack position, while the Augustus students’ piloted Mechas take the lead in offensive roles.
Even though Theo Mossley’s controlled Mecha isn’t as agile as the staff-piloted ones, it excels in coordination, as if it’s one unit. Now moving to a support role, the pressure alleviates, allowing the attack to become more fierce.
"Although suddenly changing the combat rhythm, she doesn’t seem to show any signs of decline."
Cui Hu’s youthful face shows a rare hint of fatigue. No matter how he directs the airborne team to change the combat rhythm, Su Jiameng can keep up, showing remarkable reaction speed and adaptability. He’s only now realizing what kind of monster he’s facing!
"You’ve already done quite well, don’t pressure yourself too much." Gu Ningyi raises his hand to adjust his slightly slipped mask, speaking in a steady voice, "Some people are born to fight; these individuals can’t be measured by common norms."
"Even though that’s true, a group of Augustus students plus a Jialanluo clan genius still can’t take down one person..." Cui Hu pauses with that thought, then adds, "Just hoping the situation on the other fronts is better."
Cui Hu thought that, no matter how strong Su Jiameng is, there must be a limit, but now, looking at her, it’s entirely beyond his expectations. In front of this person, his command talent seems to lack a grip, leaving him quite frustrated.
Of course, he believes that the companions fighting in the sky probably feel even more dejected and frustrated; a group of people besieging one person and still getting repeatedly slapped in the face by the opponent’s strength, their faces swollen... Cui Hu raises his hand to press his forehead slightly and connects to the other battlefield fronts’ status.
Gu Ningyi also contacts his second brother; by now, Gu Ningzhi has led a group of companions in setting up all the explosives. Using Anbola Trees’ spiritual power detection, they’ve successfully circled all enemies, leaving no trace of themselves, "Is the battle over on your side?"
"Of course not... but it’s almost there." Gu Ningzhi smiles broadly, then uses hand signals to instruct his companions to retreat, "By the way, big brother, do you know about Anbola Trees?"
