Chapter 16: Purgatory Clearance, Super Explosion

Unlike the mechanical guards of the miscellaneous soldier type, elite monsters do not have a weakness that can kill them with one blow, and all their pipelines are covered with solid alloy armor plates.

When facing such enemies, new players are often in a dilemma of insufficient lethality.

Fortunately, the veteran players who created the guide have already written down the clear steps to pass the game, and there are several fixed ways to solve these two elite monsters.

The Sword Guard model has poor directional maneuverability, stumbling even when turning on the spot, and it is difficult to adjust the direction once it starts running.

Every time it starts running, the legs will obviously accumulate power. At this time, if you give it a sideways collision to destroy the balance of its center of gravity, the sword guard can only jump out sideways and fall down.

As long as it is not allowed to maneuver quickly on the field, its threat will drop sharply.

Therefore, the best way to deal with it is to engage in close combat with the sword guards, circling around it and fiercely elbowing it in the side and rear.

After the center of gravity is destroyed many times, the core components of the Sword Guard's waist and abdomen will be worn out due to unreasonable force, causing the body to overload and automatically pop open the back inspection cover to dissipate heat, exposing the central components, which will be the opportunity to kill.

Lin Bo had memorized the strategy long ago, so he naturally had a plan in mind.

Sword Guards are new elite enemies added to the desperate difficulty level of the [Mechanical Factory] dungeon. Even if you know the solution, they are not easy to deal with, so players need to work together.

Among the other four people in the group, the witch is very powerful, and if she uses magic skillfully, there is a certain probability that she will defeat the sword guard.

As for the wanderer, he will probably use the traps on the field to deal with the opponent, and if he is lucky enough, he can win.

Only the barbarian was dressed too lightly and couldn't keep up with the high-speed combat, so he would be chopped down badly by the sword guards. He was almost certain to win against the shield soldiers.

The only one who could fight the Sword Guard head-on was him, the Mage. Although Lin Bo was not playing the role of a defender, he could still fight the Sword Guard quickly and force his way out of the gap.

"Beep--" the indicator light on the sword guard's head flashed.

It held the double-headed sword horizontally in front of it, grasping the hilt with both hands, twisting its wrists back and forth. With a click, the double-headed sword split into two one-handed swords. It crossed the two swords in its palms, holding one upright and the other upside down.

The sword guard leaned forward to gather strength, his upper body slightly arched like a cheetah about to pounce, the reverse-hand sword hidden under his wrist, as if disappeared, the forehand sword pointed at Lin Bo's head, the light flowing on the blade, the cold light like a line.

The cool lines of the alloy body imbued it with a stunning technological aesthetic and a dangerous aura. The dust in the air seemed to be blown away by its murderous intent.

Lin Bo couldn't help but nod when he saw the bionic man's skills.

It's so cool. The mechanics who designed its motion program are really good.

It's a shame that such a stunning-looking robot is only an elite monster in a novice dungeon. The disparity between its appearance and combat power is a blessing in disguise, otherwise these newbies would have been decimated.

"Didu—"

The moment the low synthesized sound sounded again, Jianwei and Lin Bo started at the same time. The two sides were only ten meters apart, and they were within a few feet of each other in a second.

It was too fast, such a rapid close combat, so fast that even my thoughts couldn't react in time.

Lin Bo's mind was so highly concentrated that his subjective perception of time slowed down significantly. In his eyes, the sword guards charging at high speed were like crawling slugs, and even the dust breeze blowing across the surface of the machine was clear and bright.

The sword's cold light made Lin Bo's mask look like it was covered in frost. He saw the sword's trajectory clearly, his mind racing, his body twisting like a snake. The blade grazed his tilted head and tightened chest and abdomen, but finally missed.

Lin Bo avoided the forehand thrust and poked the sword guard's head with the short spear in his hand.

At this time, the sword guard's intelligent core made a prediction, raised his left arm, and blocked the reverse-hand sword hidden under his wrist in front of him, facing the empty space between Lin Bo's chest and abdomen, waiting for him to crash into him on his own.

Such a clever and ingenious response is simply impossible for ordinary soldiers and machines to do. The elite monster's advanced intelligence makes it like a master of military attack, and it is a very difficult and formidable enemy.

Lin Bo pressed down the spear handle to block the sword blade.

The spear handle sent out a streak of sparks on the sword blade. He pressed all his strength forward, and the contact point of the weapons slid towards the tip of the sword, causing his body to move sideways quickly, and instantly flashed to the left side of the sword guard. At this time, both of his swords fell into the air, and the door here was wide open.

Lin Bo followed up with a flying knee strike, hitting the sword guard squarely in the side. Although the force wasn't heavy, it was enough to disrupt his balance. The robot was once again sent flying sideways, leaving a trail of sparks on the ground.

The game took place within a second. Lin Bo pushed himself to his limit. Although he was calm, his body's reaction was very violent. Not only did his heart beat like a drum, but he also broke out in cold sweat.

The Frost Sky-style Gundam pilot was fine, but the machine was pretty scared.

Looking at the sword guard who was defeated by him again, Lin Bo was in a good mood. The burst of adrenaline even suppressed the physical pain, and replaced it with a strong dopamine stimulation. The tingling and warm electric shock sensation spread from the scalp to the entire back.

This rapid game of inch by inch, with the thrilling experience of losing everything with one wrong move, is indeed addictive.

No wonder many players enjoy playing in dungeons because they won’t really die.

[Starry Eyes]: Master brother is so awesome!
The witch is responsible for playing supporting roles, looking here and there, paying attention to the overall combat situation of the team, and ready to lend a helping hand at any time.

What she was most worried about was whether the Lighthouse Visitor could hold back the dangerous Sword Guard. Now she was obviously relieved and provided enthusiastic support to her teammates in the channel.

The wanderer was still climbing the wall over there, fighting with valves and mechanisms, sweating profusely and having no time to be distracted.

The sword guard stood up again.

If you want to overload the body, you must let it fully charge multiple times. If you fight in close combat, it will rarely execute the charge procedure, so it often takes half a day to accumulate enough wear and tear.

Lin Bo allowed the Sword Guard to charge, interrupting him head-on. After all, this was a bionic machine, its intelligence far from cunning. While its moves were ingenious, they were too formulaic. If Lin Bo could win once, he would win again, and countless more times.

The poor sword guard was tortured to the point of smoking all over. He finally couldn't help but open the inspection cover on his back, exposing his vulnerable weakness to the evil human. In the last charge, he was hit in the vitals by the wizard's short spear, ending his humiliating life.

On the other side, the barbarian also broke the shield soldier's legs, and at this time called the wanderer in the team channel, asking him to throw a bomb over.

The shield soldier collapsed on the spot and had to drop his shield. He moved his body with difficulty using his hands, trying to smash the enemy with the electromagnetic cannon on his chest.

The barbarian took the bomb thrown by his teammate, removed the fuse, counted to three seconds in his hand, and then stuffed it into the muzzle of the shield soldier's chest, causing it to suffer a solid implosion damage.

With a loud bang, the last guardian of the machinery factory fell.

[Nightingale]: Woohoo! We win! Thank you for your hard work!

[Starry Eyes]: Thank you for your hard work!

[Feitian Dacao]: It was so easy, everyone was really awesome, it took less than half an hour to finish, it was so cool

[Lighthouse Guest]: Thank you for your hard work.
[The conditions for clearing the instance have been met, and rewards are being calculated.]

[Rewards for this dungeon: 180 Disaster Coins, 900 General Experience, Mechanic's Sweat-Absorbing Vest (Gray), Guardian's Breastplate (White), Leg Burst Exoskeleton (Blue), and "The Mechanic's Secret" (Red)]

[First clear of Purgatory difficulty [Abandoned Ancient Machinery Factory], reaching the dungeon milestone]

[Achievement title: "Clean up harmful home appliances" (bleak)]

After a brief discussion, the four divided up the mechanical guard wreckage, following the principle of whoever killed it took it. The barbarian believed that the Wanderer had a share of the shield soldier wreckage, but Nightingale waved her hand, not wanting to take any credit.

This collaboration was quite pleasant. It was originally just a temporary team, but now the four of them are reluctant to leave.

A deep purple vortex of space and time opens.

No one left first, and everyone looked at each other for a while.

[Nightingale]: How about we go back and rest for a while before continuing to run the map?

The three of them were waiting for this sentence and immediately nodded in agreement.
