The Fourth Calamity never believed in the steel torrent!

Chapter 174 confirms that the troops we encountered are our old adversaries!
"No, what kind of monster is this? I don't want to see it!"

From the perspective of the other Black Hawk soldiers, the mage, who had been acting strangely and busy probing the enemy's memories, suddenly let out a chilling scream as if he had seen something extremely terrifying.

Amidst the horrified gazes of the crowd, he ripped off his gas mask, revealing a face so distorted it was unbelievable, so unbelievable that it was human.

However, he paid no attention to the almost nauseating looks of the soldiers around him. He just scratched his face haphazardly like a whirlwind, and in no time he had gouged out several eyeballs.

Even so, the image in his mind did not dissipate; instead, it grew even larger.

The next moment, with a loud bang, the mage's head exploded!

The horrific scene startled the surrounding soldiers. They had no idea what the mage had seen that had caused his head to explode.

But before they could figure it out, a burst of gunfire suddenly came from the dense forest on the side, instantly killing several stunned soldiers.

"Damn it! Enemy attack! The enemy has come up from the woods!"

"Quickly, quickly, take care of them!"

While issuing orders, officers climbed into the mechs at lightning speed, attempting to pilot them to kill the enemies in front of them.

But before he could climb in, a hand suddenly reached out from behind him and grabbed his belt!

With a strong tug, the unfortunate officer was pulled off the side of the mech's cockpit entrance and fell to the ground with a thud.

Before he could even retaliate, a bayonet fell from the sky and pierced straight into his eye socket!
"Haha, bad luck! I managed to snag another mech!"

"Armored elites, advance! Your ace pilots are back!"

It was Raven and King Gigi again. This duo had previously stolen Black Hawk Empire armored vehicles several times, and now they had successfully stolen another enemy armored vehicle.

Not only these two players, but other players also acted quickly, seizing several armored vehicles before the enemies could enter them.

In the blink of an eye, several Black Hawk Empire mechs took action. However, to the astonishment of the Black Hawk soldiers, these mechs turned their guns and cannons on their own people!
boom! boom!
Two consecutive shots pierced through the two Hunter mechs that were left in place and hadn't even had time to start up. The mechs were instantly rendered incapable of combat.

The other Black Hawk Empire armored soldiers looked at the Dauntless mechs that had suddenly come to life as if they had seen a ghost, not understanding how the enemy had managed to do it.
Just kidding!
Putting aside how they learned to pilot their own mechs, just the engine start-up speed of these guys is just too fast, isn't it?
Don't these guys experience any engine startup delay when they start their mechs?

Taking advantage of their first move, they quickly wiped out several Black Hawk Empire mechs in the vicinity, as if they were shooting at a stationary target.

Unfortunately, other players didn't have time to seize more armored vehicles, because the other Black Hawk Empire mechs had also started up and begun mech battles with the players.

"Retreat! Retreat! Don't stay here, let's get out of here immediately!" "There are too many enemies here; fighting here is very disadvantageous for us!"

In the chat area, the players piloting the mechs communicated while retreating to a distance.

If they stay here, they will be fighting the enemy head-on at close range, and in the end, they will only be taken out one by one.

Even if players have great confidence in their artillery skills and reaction speed, the difference in numbers is not so easy to overcome.

Several Dauntless mechs provided cover as they quickly retreated to the nearby fields. The small huts and piles of straw scattered around the fields provided perfect cover for them.

Most importantly, these haystacks contain hidden respawn markers, so other players can secretly spawn here!
Even a relatively agile Fearless mech is still quite vulnerable when operating alone.

To counter the enemy's armored forces, they still need to cooperate with their teammates and require more infantry to cover them.

Seeing these guys swagger away in their mechs, the Black Hawk soldiers were furious.

They never expected that several of their mechs would be snatched away by the enemy right in front of them. This was an utter disgrace to them!
However, they didn't have time to chase after these damned thieves in a short time, because two guys didn't run with the others, but instead charged at them.

Two enormous bayonets charged and pierced the bodies of two Hunter mechs.

Although the Hunter mech is currently the Black Hawk Empire's most defensive conventional mech, its armor still cannot withstand the impact of two such massive special metal bayonets.

However, just as the two player mechs were busy pulling bayonets out of the enemy's armor, Black Hawk Empire infantrymen on the side opened fire with anti-tank rifles.

A bullet came flying, and the pilot sitting below was instantly pierced through from both sides, dying on the spot with a thud. The mech was also stuck in place and unable to move.

Before the other player could switch to the mech piloting position, a shell fired from the side struck the mech, completely destroying it.

At close range, facing concentrated fire from the enemy's superior forces, these two Dauntless mechs had no chance of survival. They were already quite lucky to break through a wave of Dauntless charges and take down two enemy mechs.

Even after eliminating the enemies inside those two mechs, the Black Hawk soldiers' expressions didn't change at all; they felt like they were about to go crazy with anger!
Damn it, all the mechs that are being destroyed now are their own!

Where did these guys learn mecha technology from? They've even come up with tactics to steal their mechas!
"Very good, it seems we can now confirm that the force we are currently encountering is the infamous Smoke Demon, and it is the force he leads!"

Looking at the wreckage of the two of their own mechs lying on the ground, an armored officer said viciously into the communications channel:
“Apart from his troops, I have never heard of any other Cambrian army that has been able to steal and use the Empire’s armored vehicles. This familiar tactic is clearly that of those despicable thieves!”
