Every mech pilot cherishes their mech deeply, and because of their synesthesia, they can even regard their mech as their own family.

“You know what? I really looked down on you at first.” Looking at Raleigh, thinking that the final battle was about to begin, Little Hansen suddenly said.

“You abandoned your mech and disappeared for five years.”

“You might think this is nothing, but... mechs have souls; they are not just cold machines.”

Raleigh thought that Little Hansen was going to insult him like he had done at the restaurant, but he was surprised to find that the kid said something with a bit of depth.

“You’re right, she’s not a cold machine.” Raleigh looked at the dangerous wanderer and said with a complicated expression, “I’ve always been running away.”

"Escape the mechs...escape the monsters...escape my brother's death..."

"Those were unhappy days, and constantly running away... only makes things more painful, so now, I don't want to run away anymore."

“I want to end all of this with my own hands. I don’t want to see anyone else go through what I did.”

Raleigh opened up and spoke earnestly.

As Little Hansen listened, his opinion of Raleigh changed somewhat. He hated cowards, but he didn't hate people who could overcome their cowardice.

"That's right."

"We've all lost our loved ones to monsters, so what we have to do is wipe them out in the mechs."

"Not just for the world, but also for our loved ones."

"Our final battle must be fought beautifully," said young Hansen confidently.

These words and attitudes changed Raleigh's impression of Hansen Jr.

“I feel like you’ve changed a bit,” Raleigh said, looking at him. “Some… positive changes.”

He remembered that Little Hansen was more arrogant and domineering, and it was normal for him to make a few sarcastic remarks about him.

However, people are multifaceted and complex. They didn't have much contact, so he never really got to know Little Hansen.

“Well......”

"Maybe... a little." Upon hearing this, Little Hansen scratched his head, a few images flashing through his mind.

He looked at the Shaolin knight and said, "I always thought I was the best driver in the world."

"But the truth tells me that there are always higher levels to reach."

"In all these years of fighting monsters, I have hardly ever experienced despair, but when I did encounter despair, it was that light that saved me."

“My father and I were besieged by countless monsters, but when I saw that light, a lot of courage welled up in my heart.”

"I realized... even if I'm shattered to pieces, I absolutely cannot give up."

Little Hansen clenched his fists. It was this courage that led him to choose self-destruction when he was taken hostage inside the breach.

And that also completely completed his transformation.

“Yes…never give up.” Old Hansen looked at him, his face full of relief. “We will definitely end all of this.”

“We will definitely end all of this.” The other pilots also said, looking at their respective mechs.

Chapter 72 Rampage

Texas, a Marine Corps military base.

Inside a spacious armory, five white, futuristic drone mechs were secured by multiple devices, like five prisoners locked inside the armory.

"The perfect combination of organic biological tissue and mechanics is truly a genius design," an engineer exclaimed as he inspected the five mechs.

They had been notified in advance that these drones were at risk of going out of control, so they took precautions to control them.

As for why not just destroy it directly?

Then you should ask them why they bought these drone armors.

If these things don't get out of control, they're the perfect weapon.

“The systems inside are not activated at all, so how could there be a risk of them going out of control?” another engineer said, holding a tablet and checking the systems inside the mech.

"Even if things really get out of control, we can paralyze their systems immediately."

In their view, the leaders above were overthinking things.

They're just waiting for the day they can take these mechs apart and study their internal structure.

An invisible energy fluctuation spread to the vicinity of the base.

"Click-click-click!"

The five drones that had been fixed in place reacted instantly!

"What!?" The engineer stared in disbelief at the five drones that had suddenly been activated. "How did it start up!?"

Upon seeing the mech attempting to break free of control, the entire armory instantly erupted in chaos, and alarms were sounded immediately.

"Benson, what's the situation with the drone?" A communication link went directly to another engineer's tablet.

The communicator was Winston Walker, the base's commander, whose deafening voice blared from the tablet.

“Sir, we didn’t provide them with any power source, they started moving on their own!” Benson replied, a bead of cold sweat dripping from his forehead.

This caused the drone mech to break free even more, shaking the entire armory.

"Don't you have a system to control them!?"

"Use whatever means necessary to quiet them down!" the commander shouted over the radio.

Benson's face was covered in even more sweat.

"We immediately started hacking into their systems... but we haven't succeeded yet."

The other engineer who had just confidently claimed he could disable the drone mech system was now extremely busy, leading other engineers in a frantic attack on the drone mech system, but to no avail.

"Roar... Roar!"

Suddenly, gaps appeared in the outer armor of the five struggling drone mechs, and the armor material belonging to the monsters protruded from them. The originally sealed helmets also developed hideous cracks, making them look no different from the monsters' heads.

They've completely gone berserk!

"Everyone evacuate the armory!"

Commander Walker's voice came over the loudspeaker, ordering everyone inside to evacuate.

Although they were very reluctant, they had to make the decision to destroy it at this moment.

"Armed forces, prepare to carry out the destruction work!" He quickly gave the order from the command center at the base.

"Received!"

A response immediately came through the communication.

During this period, not only at this military base, but also at several other bases in countries that had incorporated drones, similar riots occurred.

"Retreat! Retreat!"

"Everyone, evacuate immediately!"

Inside the armory, engineer Benson hurriedly ordered the technicians to retreat, as the monstrous drone mechs were about to break free of their restraints—this was no joke.

At the same time, a large number of soldiers carrying guns poured into the armory, raising their weapons as they looked at the huge monster mech.

"Tat-tat--"

The personnel have not been completely evacuated, so they can only use these weapons for the time being.

But clearly, such weapons were incapable of causing any significant damage to the monster mechs. After breaking free of their restraints, the monsters roared, their roars shaking the very core of the monsters' hearts.

Take a step forward and crush the surrounding machinery into a discus.

They seemed to have received some kind of instruction, and instead of engaging the army immediately, they formed a circle around each other, their energy cores lighting up as they hurried to carry out their orders.

The cores on the chests of the five mechs released bundles of energy that converged and caused a shockwave.

"Sir, those mechs... they're likely to deploy wormholes!" Benson had already run to the armory, where tanks and armored vehicles were already prepared. He shouted into the communications system.

"A wormhole just like the gap in the Pacific Ocean floor!"

On the other end of the communication.

Commander Walker, inside the command center, glanced at the outer layer of the armory from a distance, his brow furrowing instantly.

They can handle these five monster-like mechs, but if they summon monsters, the entire base could fall.

Massive firearms can indeed kill monsters, but at the cost of the entire base being wiped out along with them.

"Shit..." Commander Walker cursed, his mind racing as he considered a solution.

These monster mechs didn't even engage in combat; they immediately deployed wormholes, making the situation even more troublesome.

The armory, originally intended to imprison them, became their sanctuary.

After all the personnel in the armory were evacuated, the soldiers launched an attack on the five monster mechs with more powerful weapons.

One of the monster mechs was hit by an RPG and let out a painful roar. It immediately stopped sending energy into the wormhole, turned around and grabbed the steel frame that it had used to secure itself, holding it in front of it.

The wormhole was about to take shape, so it chose to stall for time on its own, using the steel piled up beside it to form a shield to withstand the army's firepower.

However, the army's firepower should not be underestimated. Although the army's weapons have not developed much in this era of mechs and monsters, they still easily tore through its defenses.

The monstrous mech quickly fell under the army's suppressive fire.

However, since they had already been preparing wormholes at the beginning of their rampage, even if it didn't delay them for much longer, it was enough.

An arc of electricity had already been created inside the armory.

"Roar!!!"

With a deafening roar, the behemoth that brought about the end of the world once again poked its head out!

“Oh...No......”

The soldiers, seeing the monster slowly emerge from the wormhole, were instantly reminded of the helplessness they had felt when facing monsters in the past.

Chapter 73 Reinforcements from Above

Amidst the horrified gazes of countless soldiers, a terrifying, bronze-colored, demon-like behemoth crawled out of the wormhole crackling with electric arcs of energy. This was an abomination, whose roar proclaimed the return of the apocalypse!
