Infinite Terror: Infinite Reversal

Chapter 607 Rushing into the formation
Zheng Zha suddenly chuckled to himself: "Although I know that these mechs were stolen from Earthlings by the Celestials... it still feels quite peculiar to see aliens using the same mechs as us."

Luo Gandao was silent for a moment, then replied, "Is Brother Zheng Zha assessing the strength and operational skills of their mechs?"

Zheng Zha was taken aback for a moment: "Uh, you're overthinking it. I just think this kind of battle is very interesting."

"Like watching tokusatsu and liking life-size battles?" Cheng Xiao muttered.

Zheng Zha replied repeatedly, "Yes, yes."

Luo Gandao felt a little dazed. At this point... how could someone still have such unconventional thinking? He really wanted to ask Zheng Zha if this was the style of the Central Continent Team.

However, he will understand later... this level of combat intensity is not as high as his usual sparring for Zheng Zha.

This is nothing.

Liu Xi's voice echoed in the mind chain: "In terms of mecha strength alone, you are clearly no match for the Celestials... As for operational precision, they have all the operational data of Earth's mechas over the past fifty years. Even if they only have the learning level of 21st-century artificial intelligence, it is enough to crush an ordinary mechanical dragon. So the key can only rely on you."

Zhang Jie smiled and said, "That makes sense... but with telekinesis, it's different."

With that, Zhang Jie led his squadron upwards. Some of the mechanical dragons were still wondering why aliens also had mechs, but seeing their captain and the strange mechs around them charging upwards, they excitedly followed.

While some of the mechanical dragons were well-trained, others were hastily trained... their tactical skills varied wildly across the board, but it was still quite difficult for them to back down in this atmosphere. After all, most of the mechanical dragons didn't actually know that their strange mechs were unmanned, which gave them a peculiar feeling—that their own army was unstoppable.

In this situation, if someone can still back down, then how they were selected in the first place is questionable.

With Zhang Jie's formation charging forward, the rest of the formations followed suit, and the mechs on both sides quickly became embroiled in a fierce battle. Before either side was even aware of it, telekinesis enveloped the entire battlefield, and every now and then, lone enemy mechs would be inexplicably torn apart and then silently swallowed up by the spreading artillery fire.

Luo Gandao passed through the attacks of several mechs. For some reason, those mechs did not instinctively chase after him as Luo Gandao had hoped, nor did they expose their backs to the Earth's mechs... This made Luo Gandao silently reduce the propulsion power. He had originally wanted to stall for time, but the mechs did not fall for it in unison, which surprised him.

After all, Luo Gandao only used this tactic on a whim, and it was impossible for Earth's mechanical dragons to be playing training matches with Celestial Beings... Just as he was pondering this, Zhang Jie's voice rang out: "Be careful, these mechs around you... are also on autopilot."

Grass.

Luo Gandao cursed inwardly, "This is not surprising... It seems that the Celestials' training of the mechs is quite thorough."

“You advance forward, and leave these mechs to the main force… The Celestials’ mechs also have their own formation. You’re currently on the right side, not far from the main battleground.” Zhang Jie paused for a moment, “The location of the main battleground has already been marked for you.”

Just as Luo Gandao was about to look at the tactical signal on the screen, he paused for a moment... Zhang Jie had indeed marked it, but not using the tactical system; instead, he directly projected the position of a mech into Luo Gandao's line of sight.

"Holy crap..." Logan couldn't help but feel a sense of awe. He fired two fragmentation rounds to force back the enemy mechs that were surrounding him, then unleashed a powerful thrust, creating distance as he charged straight at the mech. While it was still en route, Divana unleashed a barrage of fire, raining down on the Celestial mech.

Such blatant targeting alerted the host machine, causing it to accelerate and evade Logandao's attack.

Luo Gan clicked his tongue and said, "The Celestials' mainframe has anti-thermal tracking capabilities... just like our newly equipped one."

The next moment, Divana, already incredibly fast, accelerated again, reaching her opponent's previous position in an instant. Her sudden burst of speed surprised not only Zhang Jie but even herself. It was almost as if she had arrived before hesitating. And her opponent was no pushover either, having no intention of engaging in a direct one-on-one fight.

The mainframe opened fire in Logandao's direction, and the surrounding mechs also concentrated their fire. Logandao wondered to himself, "Can I withstand this?"

The meaning was self-evident, and Zhang Jie responded with a loud laugh: "Go for it!"

A layer of light surged around Divana—it was her newly equipped protective force field…and then the enemy's concentrated fire all slammed into it. What most people couldn't see was that as the force field collided with these attacks, ripples appeared in concentric circles.

It wasn't a dense surge... but rather a lazy, circling process.

Clearly, Luo Gandao's move stunned almost everyone on both sides who witnessed it. He didn't just stand there dumbfounded while he was taking the hit; instead, he moved at high speed towards his target. After he demonstrated this level of defense and speed, his opponents would have to think twice before focusing their fire on him or using homing missiles.

With Zhang Jie covering for him, he focused all his firepower on the main unit while simultaneously weaving rapidly through the ranks of the Celestial Mechs. His opponents, however, seemed to know they lacked such mobility and defensive capabilities; despite being in their own formation, they didn't weave in as naturally as Luo Gandao.

The Earth mechs behind Luo Gandao were also putting their strength into action. Under Zhang Jie's command, a large number of unmanned mechs provided Luo Gandao with fire support.

After circling around a massive leading mech, Logando caught up with the mainframe as he had hoped. Before the mainframe could hit his attack range, two steel shields popped out. Logando glanced at the trajectory calculated by the combat system based on the space environment and launched one of them.

At first glance, the flying shield attack seemed a bit off-target, which allowed the mainframe to dodge and then activate its melee weapon, with two giant blades slashing towards Logandao along with the mech's arms.

Luo Gandao swung the remaining shield in his hand, using the force to push back. He didn't know what the Celestial Being inside the opposing mech looked like, but he guessed that his opponent must be pleased with this counterattack... as long as the Celestial Being's training data was taken from Earth.

The next moment, a heat-seeking missile hurtled toward Logan Road, and behind Divana, another mech array arrived, with a mainframe at the front, which immediately hurled its weapon toward Logan Road.

"Success."

Zheng Zha and Zhang Jie watched this scene and said in unison.

Divana dodged to the side, and the heat-seeking missile ignored her, blasting directly into the newly arrived friendly formation. Meanwhile, the armor-piercing arrow that Logando had been charging up for a long time burst out, carrying an extremely long alloy chain, piercing through the cockpit of the previous mainframe.

Before the newly arrived host could even sort out its array status, and before the aftershocks of the powerful heat-seeking missile had even dissipated, it began to disintegrate inch by inch.

The Celestials might not understand what happened... but the Central Continent Team knew.

A grayish-brown bullet hit the main unit... It was a special D-grade sniper bullet called "Swaying," originally obtained through a cheat program from the Demon Team.

It is said to originate from the World Tree, just like Gungnir... Its effect is to ignore all obstacles in front of the target.

To make Zero hit this target from Earth with the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, Zhang Jie only needs to project the scene from this side in the same direction, and then use the True Sense Vision to enhance the range...

It must be said that this is an excellent sniping scenario.

Both formations collapsed one after the other, and while Luo Gandao was charging forward, the Earth's mechs continued to advance.
