Chapter 372: Su Mucheng's Defeat

--- Chapter 369 ---

Su Mucheng stopped her mecha as the energy monitor sensed three alarming presences. She glanced back and saw the Bright Spirit Empire's Commanders in their Battle Armors.

No, their Battle Armor looks vastly different from the Sun and Moon Empire's version.

Uchiha Madara is wearing red armor similar to his past armor, but more body-covering with a tengu-inspired helmet over his head. He also had these three rotating wheels of fire on his back, like Uchiha's Tomoe. A pair of purple wings materialized from his converted Immortal Qi spreading, making him look like a death reaper.

Dugu Bo floated beside Madara, sporting a polished yet lean jade-colored scaled armor with a snake's head helmet. A pair of red visors covered his eyes, giving off a predatory look. His fingers are "neatly." covered with nail guards coated with deadly poison. Unlike Madara's wing, Dugu Bo has a three meters long serpent tail with a sharp-barbed tip.

Behind the two commanders, Liu Erlong became the embodiment of the Hell Dragon. She looks more like a dragon now, having scale mail over her chest and a skirt around her hips. None of her skin was exposed because nano inner armor covered them, creating this unique hexagonal dragon scales pattern. Her slender arm is becoming a dragon arm, having a sharp claws-like finger.

Liu Erlong's head is "unconventionally." protected by a helmet with an upper-dragon head design and s jaws connected to her cheeks. Two curved dragon horns protruded from the side of her head, scorching with scarlet flame. A pair of leathery dragon wings unfurled from her back, and a muscular dragon tail full of rough scales swayed from above her buttock.

She looks like a Valkyrie powered by the Dragon's Lineage.

"Go!" Dugu Bo waved his finger, bursting a cloud of poisonous mist in the area.

BOOM!

Uchiha Madara and Liu Erlong kicked the air with all their might, creating a crack in the fabric space. They arrived at Su Mucheng's Mecha instantly and were ready to blast some metal off it.

"Hashira."

"Drake."

SWOOOOOOOSH!

A nine-tailed fox appeared and opened its mouth, blasting a fire wave at Su Mucheng's Mecha. And immediately followed by a massive drake made of dark crimson flame, which created a fiery typhoon to trap the giant-like machine.

The intensity of the combined attack is severe for metal with weak resistance against fire.

Liu Erlong pulled a metal rod from her armor, coursing her converted Immortal Qi into it. An energy blade appeared and slashed through the air, puncturing Su Mucheng's Mecha.

"YOU ROACHES!" Su Mucheng roared from her mecha, swinging her god-class machine's arm.

BAM!

Liu Erlong met with the swinging arm and caught it with her hand, grinning like a madwoman inside her helmet. She stopped the enormous mecha's arm, punching it with even greater power.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!

Su Mucheng's eyes widened as her mecha stumbled back.

Liu Erlong balled her hand into a fist and charged the hellfire inside the grasp, bursting the flame continuously. Before Su Mucheng could stabilize the mecha, he rushed to the mecha's chest and slammed her hand heavily.

"Hellfire Detonation..."

BOOOOM! BOOOOM! BOOOOM! BOOOOM! BOOOOM!

A continuous explosion hit Su Mucheng's mecha, sending the giant machine into the sky. Even a god-class barrier she applied on the outer layer of mecha couldn't last against Liu Erlong's technique.

The fabric space and time are trembling because of it, leaving Su Mucheng immobilized for a couple of seconds.

It was more than enough for Madara to complete his attack.

Uchiha Madara waved hand signs and murmured, "Tengai Shinsei: Mokushiroku..."

Several looming shadows descended from the atmosphere, massive meteors burning because of the intense fricking, and caused the ocean below it to shake violently.

The gravitational pull started to become unstable.

Uchiha Madara grabbed his other martial soul and used its latent ability to manipulate the death energy. He left shadowy trails in the air, causing sturdy black chains to restrain Su Mucheng's mecha.

He pulled the scythe back and threw it to Su Mucheng's mecha, piercing the armor. The death energy decayed the alloy Sun and Moon Empire painstakingly created and broke through the armor.

"Seven Ghost Reapers." The darkness and metal attribute from the Underworld Scythe overwhelmed Su Mucheng's mecha, increasing the pressure and heaviness within the mecha's cockpit. Seven slash marks are "keenly." plastered over the mecha's armor.

Su Mucheng coughed blood and watched a group of burning meteors falling on her.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM!!!

The ocean within three thousand miles was "heavily." swept by the meteors, shaking the planet a little bit. Seawaters and rubbles flew everywhere, reaching the sky at an alarming speed.

The gigantic mecha received an intense bombardment from the meteors, making Su Mucheng scream in the cockpit. Even though the heatwave didn't penetrate her mecha, the shockwave traveled inside quite effortlessly.

"AAAAGHHHHH!"

"Cooling... Mode."

Su Mucheng uttered the command and triggered the standby mode of her mecha, nullifying the tremor. She grabbed a handful of bagged fluid, shoving it into her mouth. Her eyes become red like blood, changing the atmosphere of the cockpit.

"How much energy is left in the battery?"

"42.6954%, the eternal shield usage has reached a dangerous state." A monotonous voice echoed in the cockpit. "There is a 4.5% chance for the 9th Battery to explode because of the exposure to outside."

"I suggest you change the eternal shield to the anti-spirit barrier, Ma'am."

Su Mucheng ignored the AI's suggestion and asked again, "How is the outer armor's condition?"

"The chess plate is heavily damaged, the left arm is "seriously." fractured from the hand to the shoulder part, some lower joints corroded by a poisonous substance, and lastly... The cockpit is "slightly." disconnected from the anti-gravity machine."

"You might experience some jet lag when moving around... I suggest you go through troubleshooting and fix the anti-gravity machine first, Ma'am. Fighting with this error will cost your life."

"Even though the mecha hasn't sucked your life energy yet, it is not far from that stage."

"Shut it down then... I don't need the anti-gravity. The mecha is moving fast enough under my control." Su Mucheng indifferently returned, grabbing the control shaft.

"I'll take them down before the battery runs out of energy-!"

BAM!

Liu Erlong suddenly smashed the mecha's head with her kick.

"Kuugh... That bitch." Su Mucheng pressed a button nearby, locking the space around the mecha.

Usually, it would stop anyone from moving.

Liu Erlong isn't affected by it, but her movement speed became slightly slower. Su Mucheng took her chance and slapped the fiery dragon woman away.

BAM!

"Madara, the head!" Liu Erlong shouted while getting flown like a cannonball.

Grabbing onto his Gunbai, Uchiha Madara used his Susanoo to coat his martial souls and increase his attacking move's power. He clenched his hand on the handle and slashed through the mecha's barrier.

He rapidly smashed everything before him, reaching the outer armor quickly. With a quick succession, three elemental energies gathered on Madara's Gunbai and created a menacing pillar of light.

"Slash through."

Uchiha Madara waved his Gunbai down, slashing the mecha's armor like it was hardwood.

"Repulsor, fire!" Su Mucheng is trying to activate Battle Mode again.

Five small cannons appeared and surrounded Madara, shooting several laser beams at him.

"Susanoo." Uchiha Madara called his imperfect Susanoo, hardening it even more with converted Immortal Qi. Not like before, Madara could withstand it just fine now.

Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!

"Battle Mode on." Su Mucheng heard the AI's voice.

"DIE!"

She jerked the shaft control and activated radiating barrier around the mecha, which turned the air into an electromagnetic field. It would fry anyone below level 100 to ash, but Madara's current strength is way past that.

CRACKLES!

The thunderclaps echoed in Madara's ears as he locked his leg onto the mecha with a surface-walking technique. He raised his right leg and stomped with all his might.

"THIS IS NOT ENOUGH TO STOP ME!"

BAM! BOOOOOOOOOOOM!

CRACK!

"AGAIN!"

Uchiha Madara's 8th spirit ring lit up, changing the color of his flame into white. He lashed his leg and stomped onto Su Mucheng's mecha again.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!

CRACKS!

He wanted to keep attacking, but Su Mucheng abruptly moved the mecha from the depth of the ground. She ejected a tremendous energy beam and washed him away from the face of Douluo Planet.

BOOM!

Uchiha Madara blinked once and felt struck by a rock.

"W-Where am I?" He groggily said, seeing a giant blue orb before his eyes. "She sent me to the moon."

"Tch."

He tilted his head to activate the earpiece and said, "I have created enough holes for you, Dugu Bo."

"Finish the job..."

Su Mucheng's mecha raised from the ground and moved awkwardly on uneven land. She controlled the mecha's movement carefully and ignored the damage Madara did, changing her focus to the floating helicarrier several thousand miles away.

"Sun Destroying Cannon..." She whispered indifferently.

The right arm of Su Mucheng's mecha transformed into a rotating cannon with bright orange-colored energy inside it.

"Fire."

"Not so fast!" Dugu Bo suddenly appeared, commanding his Jade Phosphorus Serpent Emperor's Avatar to shove itself into the Sun Destroying Cannon.

"No!" Su Mucheng's eyes widened in horror.

The cannon is firing high-powered energy, but since the Jade Phosphorus Serpent Emperor's Avatar is on its way, the ammunition couldn't launch as it should and explode violently.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

Dugu Bo spews a mouthful of blood as his martial soul avatar receives substantial damage, but he can still fight. He looked at Su Mucheng's mecha and saw the lost chunk of its body.

He grinned and rushed the mecha's head, preparing the snake's tail with the most deadly poison.

Su Mucheng is on the verge of death, using all the battery energy to use the Sun Destroying Cannon. She gritted her teeth and said with great difficulty, "K-Kang..."

"Protect the empire."

Dugu Bo arrived at the mecha's head and melted through the half-destroyed cockpit, stabbing Su Mucheng's chest with his tail.

STAB!

"This is it." Dugo Bo watched the lifeless body of Su Mucheng slumped on the red seat. "Command room, we have eliminated the mecha's user."

"Self-Destruction Protocol will get started in 3... 2..." A monotonous voice filled Dugu Bo's ears.

"1..."

"Farewell, Ma'am."

"Fuck! Give me a break-!" Dugu Bo's mouth twitched.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM!!!
