The Sickle Emperor easily swatted away the incoming boomerangs with a sneer, "Hmpf, futile struggle!"
But those two boomerangs, while backtracking, spun at a bizarre angle and once again struck from behind...
"Puchi!"
Due to the intense friction, they left behind a bloody trail...
Even the bullets of the mecha brigade had been specially modified to penetrate the defense of abyssal creatures, so naturally, her boomerangs had also undergone some modifications!
With a successful strike, the surrounding mecha pilots exclaimed with excitement, "As expected of our ace mecha master from the Blood God Army, actually able to perfectly control the angle of the boomerangs!"
"Of course, during the mecha competition, if it hadn't been for an off performance, the championship would have been won long ago!"
"Ahem... about that, I watched that match, the captain actually performed exceptionally, but still lost to the opponent, of course, that doesn't deny the captain's mecha piloting skill!"
"Now is not the time to talk about this, haven't you noticed? The captain has been keeping a distance from the Sickle Emperor all along, obviously, getting close would be fatal!"
"Right, everyone, aim for the Sickle Emperor's head and heart if possible! At least, let's interfere with its movements!"
Already annoyed by the injury, the Sickle Emperor found the attacks from these mechas increasingly tricky...
Immediately, it became furious, and killing intent as tangible as reality surged skywards...
It bellowed, "You ants, scram!!"
With a sweep of its sickle, a giant blade glow charged with chill directly rushed towards the mecha group!
Ling Wuyue, who noticed it first, cried out, "Get away quickly!!"
She never expected that the Sickle Emperor would so suddenly lash out because of her single strike!
But clearly, the blade glow was faster than her words!
Several mechas in mid-fire were bisected at the waist, and even the pilots inside met their end without a complete corpse!
The damaged mechas fell one after another, spilling crimson blood!
Then, the Sickle Emperor's eyes flared red again and appeared in front of the mecha piloted by Ling Wuyue with a speed too fast for the naked eye to follow!
The latter was alarmed, "Not good!!"
The Sickle Emperor did not give her a chance to think and swung the sickle again, "Die!!"
Ling Wuyue quickly gripped the joystick and shook it up and down frantically, "Move... come on, move!"
At last, at the cost of a mechanical arm, she narrowly escaped...
The Sickle Emperor's eyes flashed as it gave chase, "Run? Where can you run to!"
Now, what it wanted most was not to create chaos in human lines, but to shred that mecha!!
"Colonel Ling Wuyue has slowed down the Sickle Emperor, and our rear defenses haven't been attacked for the moment, but the situation is still not optimistic!"
Upon hearing the report, the acting commander's face turned grim, "We were already struggling to use mechas to hold back an abyssal creature comparable to an Ultimate Douluo, Colonel Ling Wuyue has done quite well to get this far."
"But once there's a slip-up, the Sickle Emperor could cause incalculable damage to our rear lines!"
At this moment, he was at his wits' end!
All powerful Soul Masters had already gone to the frontline to resist the Abyssal Emperor, resulting in very weak defenses at the rear!
No one could withstand the Sickle Emperor's advance!
Suddenly, a woman with an elegant demeanor by his side softly said, "It seems we're not late, they've actually held off the abyssal creatures' onslaught!"
A chill ran up the back of the acting commander as he looked over and exclaimed, "You are??"
He had not felt her approach at all!!
This meant that her strength was definitely far superior to his own!
Regarding his surprise, Leng Yaozhu, however, appeared exceptionally calm as she said indifferently, "I am the Vice Tower Master of the Spirit Pagoda, Leng Yaozhu!"
Upon hearing this, the man was initially taken aback, then his expression quickly changed from fear to joy...
He said excitedly, "Your Excellency Sky Phoenix Douluo?? You've come here, does that mean..."
Leng Yaozhu still answered expressionlessly, "Yes, reinforcements from the Spirit Pagoda will arrive shortly!!"
With confirmation, the man exclaimed excitedly, "That's great, with the support of the Spirit Pagoda, we might really be able to withstand the attack of the abyssal creatures!"
Leng Yaozhu glanced at him and asked, "What's the situation now?"
The former quickly calmed himself and responded, "Your Excellency Sky Phoenix Douluo, the Abyssal Creature Army has currently been contained by our Blood God Army's Mecha Brigade, and the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion and other powerhouses are battling the Abyssal Emperor, but..."
Leng Yaozhu frowned slightly, "But?"
"But our rear has been attacked by the Sickle Emperor, and currently, only Colonel Ling Wuyue is delaying them in her mecha, but she won't be able to hold on for much longer!"
After saying this, the man clenched his fists, seemingly helpless!
Leng Yaozhu pursed her thin lips, "I'll deal with the Sickle Emperor! It's up to you to meet up with the Spirit Pagoda members!"
The man nodded, gratefully saying, "Yes! Your Excellency Sky Phoenix Douluo!"
With this powerhouse here, the Sickle Emperor would surely be stopped!
Leng Yaozhu said nothing more, and immediately released her spiritual power, covering the entire defensive line's rear...
After a dozen seconds, she had already pinpointed the location of the Sickle Emperor and charged straight towards it...
...
Ling Wuyue, who was continuously maneuvering the mecha at high speed, looked at the relentless Sickle Emperor chasing her on the screen and gritted her teeth, "Damn it, losing an arm is really troublesome!"
If her right arm had been intact, although she wouldn't have been able to kill the Sickle Emperor, delaying it for half an hour would have been no problem at all!
However, as she pondered, a sudden appearance of a thick arm reached out, grasping the mecha's neck directly and lifting it forcefully...
Yes, it was indeed the Sickle Emperor who had been pursuing her!
Ling Wuyue's pupils shrank suddenly, "What?? Wasn't the Sickle Emperor just behind me?"
Before she could say more, the Sickle Emperor thrust its Sickle from behind the mecha, piercing through the durable metal exterior as if it were tofu, instantly penetrating and destroying the mecha's control hub...
The Sickle Emperor licked its lips and said with a cruel tone, "Human, didn't you enjoy running? Keep running then!"
A chill struck Ling Wuyue's heart...
Now that the mecha's control hub was destroyed, all parts were forced to malfunction...
She could no longer operate the mecha!!
In despair, she could only open the mecha's hatch...
But the moment the Sickle Emperor had been waiting for came, as it swung its Sickle once more towards the hatch...
Looking at the enormous weapon bringing gusts of cold air closer and closer to her, Ling Wuyue seemed to let out a relieved sigh and said with a bitter smile, "It seems, this is how... I die..."
She had reached a dead end, unless a miracle happened...
But how could that be?
"Have you given up already before you're even dead?"
The moment she heard that sentence, the resonant sound of a phoenix's cry filled the entire space, and a phoenix enveloped in flames soared across the sky, blasting the Sickle Emperor dozens of meters away...
