Bab 343: CHAPTER 343 - The Truth Lies Within Cannon Range

The oncoming scarecrows attacked with sharp claws and teeth, or unleashed terrifying dark magic. 

They wielded crescent-shaped dark blades known as "Night's Cut," summoned flocks of crows for ambush, invoked mind-altering "Darkest Moments," siphoned souls with "Bounty of Five Bones," and unleashed dark flames capable of easily incinerating rock and steel, fundamentally different from Morgana's magic.

Yet, all these attacks were thwarted by the force field shield of the warrior mech.

In truth, Li Lin could not comprehend how this shield could render him immune to all harm.

He had conducted numerous tests but could not fully grasp its underlying principles.

What he could ascertain was that this type of "shield" utilized a small portion of spatial principles, seemingly capable of directly dispersing and redirecting incoming attacks.

With sufficient energy backing it, the force field shield could last up to one minute.

During this time, the warrior mech would remain unscathed.

Meanwhile, the mental assaults from Fiddlesticks were completely blocked by the banshee's veil, which had accumulated energy for several minutes and reached its maximum health.

Time was of the essence. Li Lin commanded the mech to unleash its full firepower. Plasma sabers extended from its arms, coordinating with the thermal spike hammer at its rear. Combined with the energy particle spears fired from the arm-mounted laser devices, they were sufficient to slay any scarecrow daring to approach him.

At the same time, the armor of the warrior mech unfolded, revealing the barrel of a material projector cannon on its shoulder, firing a barrage of compressed projectiles.

The energy cannon array mounted on its back continuously released countless material disintegration projectiles, their fierce blue energy flames tearing the ground apart, annihilating all existence that came near Li Lin.

Blue lasers, energy shells, explosive projectiles erupting with searing flames, and the swirling murder crows intertwined in a deadly dance, each strike capable of piercing and obliterating dozens, even hundreds, of bloodthirsty dark magical entities.

Li Lin seemed to transform into a character from some "True Grass-Cutting Master" game, mercilessly reaping the dark manifestations that plagued the world.

A minute passed swiftly; the translucent force field shield suddenly vanished, requiring several minutes to cool down.

Even Fiddlesticks, acting solely on instinct and devoid of self-awareness, sensed a change and intensified its attacks.

After one wave of blood crows, another surged forth from the skies, while an unending stream of scarecrows emerged from all directions, intermixed with Fiddlesticks itself, which could switch positions like a shadow clone.

From time to time, it unleashed crescent-shaped black magic spells, "Night's Cut," dozens to hundreds of times more potent than those of the other scarecrows, shattering the energy barriers just generated by the mech.

This barrier was more than twice as thick as the original "Adaptive Defense" shield, especially when augmented with "Shield Capacitors." Yet, to Fiddlesticks, they were as fragile as paper.

Even the armor, constructed from zero-sum synthetic materials and layered with crystal armor plating, bore ghastly claw marks.

"This thing is truly difficult to deal with!"

Li Lin swung his right arm fiercely, cleaving a scarecrow in half, then used the hammer's tail in a sweeping arc, sending the explosive heat flying, knocking away another swarm of incoming clones and crows.

"Where's the support from the aerial mechs and ground battle mechs?"

*Unfortunately, Master, they are detained by other scarecrows.*

Upon hearing this, Li Lin was momentarily stunned. "Damn it, how many scarecrows does it have?!"

[According to scans and my calculations, this 5.12 square kilometer forest is essentially overrun by scarecrows.]

[Moreover, their numbers are ceaseless. For every one that falls, a new scarecrow is born from dark magic.]

As the AI spoke, Li Lin continued to slay no less than 20 scarecrows and dozens of murder crows.

[You should actually be grateful, Master. The fear demon hasn't gathered all its strength to attack you; these scarecrow clones have diluted much of its power.]

[Otherwise, I wouldn't have allowed you to step into this forest, fully corrupted by the demon's might. It would be akin to walking into a death trap.]

"Then I really owe you one..." Li Lin replied tersely. "Stop dawdling and get me those battlefield mechs, Kog'Mawand the Warlord!"

[...Are you suggesting?]

"Level this forest to the ground!"

Li Lin's gaze fixed on the display showing the diminishing energy percentage of the mech.

This was a nano energy core, capable of restoring 75% of its maximum energy per second, yet even this could not prevent the mech's energy reserves from continuously dwindling, illustrating the difficulty of this "war of attrition."

As of now, the mech's intelligent system had recorded a completeness percentage below 85%.

This meant its total health, unpredictable even with "Data Mind," had dropped by at least ten percentage points!

To overcome the current predicament, he either needed to repel Fiddlesticks or destroy this forest, which had long become a territory of fear demons, saturated with dark magic, to prevent the scarecrows and crows from resurrecting endlessly.

[However, if you proceed with this, not only might Lady Morgana be harmed, but your remaining 131 aerial mechs, Storm, would face total annihilation, and 96 ground battle mechs, Skarner, would also suffer severe damage.]

[Are you certain you want to continue with this command?]

Li Lin had originally summoned Morgana for assistance.

But now, with Fiddlesticks right in front of him, she had inexplicably wandered off, just like Zoe, faltering at a critical moment.

He was barely managing to hold off Fiddlesticks' onslaught, let alone worry about her.

And as for these mechanical troops, compared to his overall mechanized forces, they barely registered, especially the Storm mechs.

If all production lines operated at full capacity, producing thousands in a day would be effortlessly achievable, as long as materials were sufficient.

Li Lin was thoroughly vexed by the unending wave of scarecrows and crows. He spoke impatiently, "Yes, I'm sure. Stop stalling! Use every weapon at your disposal!"

[As you wish, Master. The mechanical troops are being assembled...] 

[The battlefield mech, Kog'Maw, is ready with its plasma cannon!] 

[The warlord's high-density compressed rockets and material disintegration cannon units are prepared!] 

[The warlord's axial weapons, the mega cannon, are charging, with a countdown of 1 minute and 30 seconds...] 

[Waiting for your command.] 

"Notify me when the mega cannon is fully charged," Li Lin said, glancing at the cooldown time of the force field shield. "As for the other weapons... unleash everything." 

[As you wish.] 

With the command issued, within a breath's time, hundreds of battlefield mechs—Kog'Maw—precisely adjusted the angles of their stout cannon arms, heads, and energy cannons. 

In an instant, the pitch-black night sky was illuminated as if it were day by blinding blue light. 

The next moment, countless light points fell like torrential rain, and upon striking the trees or the ground, brilliant blue explosions erupted. The devastating energy rapidly spread, almost instantaneously enveloping the dark forest covering approximately 5 square kilometers. 

Li Lin activated the force field shield and crouched low to brace against the onslaught of energy projectiles. 

The form of the Dominator mech swayed amidst the energy sparks and violent shockwaves, yet his previously racing heart began to calm. 

"So, it's the Fear Demon, huh? And you, Fiddlesticks? Let me show you what it truly means when we say that truth lies only within cannon range!"
