So they held out for only ten minutes before retreating to their designated location.

However, the situation is not optimistic.

On the other side, Leiden's soldiers were firing from high ground, their guns spitting red flames.

At the edge of the swamp, Vanrdon's soldiers had landed. They broke through the minefield, stepped onto land, and charged toward Kenny's pass.

The officers also took up their rifles to meet the enemy, and everyone focused their attention on the battle.

But they knew in their hearts that if Vandon's mechs were to arrive here, the battle would be lost.

Everyone present... and indeed most of the people in Port Leiden, would die by gunfire.

There is no other way.

There is no other possibility.

—We can only rely on those two people.

This was the last hope for all the Leiden soldiers present.

……

Of the eight mechs that were sent out earlier, only six remain; two were destroyed en route.

Vandon's mechs pressed their advantage, with one of them firing a grenade launcher that hit one of Leiden's armors.

Its leg armor had been damaged in a previous battle, with some wiring and parts exposed. Now, after suffering a heavy blow, the leg is ruined.

"Don't worry about me! You guys go! Go back and provide support!!"

The mottled cover peeled away, revealing a blond, blue-eyed boy with features strikingly similar to Violet's.

He tried to scream at the other soldiers, his calf pierced by shrapnel, rendering him unable to move.

But the other soldiers piloting the mechs did not back down.

"You were injured while protecting us. If it weren't for you, we would be dead already..."

"Damn it! Get out of here! If you don't leave, we're all doomed!"

The blond boy turned his head in alarm to look at the armored figures chasing after him.

One minute?

No, I'm afraid it won't even be thirty seconds before those people catch up.

But Leiden's soldiers did not back down.

“We won’t leave… O’Dean, our mission is complete…”

After saying that, he raised his arm, holding a red signal gun in his hand, and then fired a shot into the sky.

A bright red light dyed the entire swamp red.

In an instant, all the mech pilots of Fan Erdong glanced at the red signal flare.

But the next second, they could no longer see them; a black shadow enveloped them.

Pure black armor, armed with steel, descended from the sky.

It holds two heavy machine guns and begins firing from the air. Its thick, steel arms hold the guns very steadily, as if there is no recoil!

It then landed in the middle of the mechs, and the heavy armor caused a huge tremor in the ground.

After landing, it remained crouched, its waist slowly turning to the right. The muzzle of its gun spewed out fierce flames, and bullets poured onto the faceplates of the surrounding armor until the muzzle was red-hot and the gun body was overheated. Then, the several Vandon mechs surrounding it slowly fell down.

Their armor was rotten, and their entire heads were a bloody mess, with almost no intact bones to be found.

Although this alloy has bulletproof properties, it is not omnipotent. Every time a bullet hits it, it will leave a dent. The mysterious mech's surprise attack took advantage of the fact that the mechs present did not have time to react, and "poured" a large number of large-caliber bullets into their faceplates.

The first bullet left a dent, the next bullet slightly embedded itself in the faceplate, and the bullet after that hit the base of the previous bullet, like a dagger made of bullets slowly advancing... eventually piercing through.

What an astonishing level of accuracy!

In just a few seconds, all four of Vandon's mechs were destroyed.

Leiden's armored soldiers were dumbfounded.

Is what I'm seeing real?

Let's rewind three minutes.

Two dark figures crouched in the bushes high up to Kenny's left.

Those were Lu Ye and Violet.

If it were a direct confrontation, Leiden's situation would be very precarious; defeat would only be a matter of time.

Leaving aside the quality of the armor, the sheer number of pieces presented a huge disadvantage.

Therefore, to win this battle, we must catch them off guard.

But there is a mountain between Leiden and Kenny, and if Vandon wants to attack Leiden, he will have to break through the Kenny pass.

If we can hold this place, it means we've succeeded.

What he and Violet had to do was launch a surprise attack.

Others are responsible for weakening the enemy's armor and luring them into a suitable position, then Violet can go and reap the rewards on the battlefield.

Although Vandon held an absolute advantage, they never expected that Leiden would have two more helpers who could influence the course of the battle!

Lu Ye had absolute confidence in Violet's strength.

Lu Ye's mission for himself was to protect Violet from injury.

If necessary, he could even rush forward to block artillery shells; as long as his armor wasn't instantly blown to pieces, the shock-absorbing components inside would save his life.

This is the perfect place to launch a surprise attack.

Inside the armor, Lu Ye looked out through the metal visor, listening to the roaring gunfire and screams, trying to calm himself down.

Violet was curiously fiddling with the various parts of the mecha. The armor looked like a piece of clothing on her, and she could move around without any problem.

This mecha is a highly adaptable suit of armor built based on her test data. Because only a little over a month has passed, only a prototype has been made. This particular mecha just passed the verification and adjustments a couple of days ago and is now ready for use.

The sky suddenly brightened as Leiden's mechs fired signal flares into the sky during their retreat.

This means they have lured the enemy to the location.

Chapter 86 Annihilation

"Violet, you can go now."

"it is good."

The girl, clad in armor, rose from the darkness.

She moved her steely body without the slightest discomfort.

"Can it be done in ten minutes?"

"can."

The time was only ten minutes, but that was enough for the girl.

Upon hearing the reply, Lu Ye activated [Functional Replication].

And then there's now.

His body underwent a dramatic transformation.

The bones made a slight popping sound, and the muscles began to strengthen...

Lu Ye suddenly felt much lighter, and even his vision became incredibly clear.

He can hear sounds from very far away and see things from very far away.

Is this Violet's physical ability?

After experiencing it firsthand, Lu Ye felt it was incredible.

Previously, he could only move his armor using the power of a steam engine, resulting in stiff and slow movements.

But now he felt as if he had become one with the armor, and he could do anything he wanted.

They burst forth from the high jungle, their steam engines running at full capacity, at an incredible speed.

From the moment the signal flare exploded in the sky to the moment Violet knocked down the mechs of Verdon, only half a minute had passed.

But it's not over yet.

The bullet grazed past my ear, and the remaining mechs of Verdon followed behind.

They were heavier than the ones Violet had just taken down, and while slower, their firepower was relatively stronger.

However, in terms of the outcome, Violet had already dealt with the most troublesome mobile enemy; otherwise, with the cover of her teammates, if even one of them had escaped, it would have been a devastating blow to the Kenny garrison half a kilometer away.

Violet drew the short sword from her leg; the short sword on her armor was equivalent to a 40-centimeter-long dagger to an ordinary person.

She charged toward that direction, running wildly through the hail of bullets.

Seeing her like this, the person opposite was stunned for a moment.

But they quickly reacted, and the iron pipes behind them popped out in unison, firing small shells.

There were so many grenades! Imagine dozens of tennis machines firing tennis balls at you at the same time... there was no way to dodge them.

Violet seemed a little confused by this sudden appearance.

—She had no idea what it was.

Although she didn't know, she didn't stop.

With her naive mind, she thought that all she had to do was knock all those round things away.

Moreover, given her combat talent and abilities, she could actually do that.

However, she didn't know that the shells of this era were made of cast iron. If they weren't cut open immediately, they would automatically ignite upon impact. Even if they were cut open instantly, although they wouldn't explode, they would instantly turn into a violently burning fireball, obscuring her vision. This would prevent her from seeing the target and leave her vulnerable to strafing.

It is quite dangerous from any perspective.

The girl, however, was completely unaware, and her pace of attack only increased.

But in the next instant, a shadow swept past at high speed.
