Chapter 218: Chapter 152 Can’t Hold On Much Longer_2

The actual defense properties weren’t as high as the primeval mecha.

Therefore, Jiang Chen didn’t activate [Boulder Form].

Instead, he directly piloted the primeval mecha, using the high-speed movement provided by the ion propulsion unit, and caught up with the Prehistoric Winged Fiend.

He swung his fist, as small as a grain of rice, and struck hard on its skull.

Eyeballs, tongue, nostrils, ears...

Since it was small, it targeted weaknesses for its attack.

With the combination of strength and the power of thorns, it successfully caused significant damage to the Prehistoric Winged Fiend.

Blood sprayed, eyeballs burst, teeth were shattered.

Not only did Zero become more excited as he fought.

Yun, who was watching the battle from inside Jiang Chen’s body, couldn’t help but wave his fist, cheering him on.

[That’s it, General Zero, just like that!]

[Poke its eyes out, dig into its nostrils, peel off its tongue, crush it hard!]

At this moment, Zero’s responses were slow due to the deceleration effect.

[Zero knows how to solve this problem, big body but weak points...]

“Wait, Zero, let’s forget the body entrance.”

Jiang Chen’s thoughts flickered, interrupting Zero’s speech.

An enemy this big, even if you attack inside, you can go through the ears to the brain.

Going through the rear to attack the internal organs, though effective, is still somewhat disgusting even in a mecha.

[Alright, since you’ve said so, Sir, I’ll let you off the hook!]

While Jiang Chen was fighting and having a tea-time chat with the mecha soul...

The Prehistoric Winged Fiend finally couldn’t bear the humiliation.

Unable to escape the pursuit of the primeval mecha, it conveyed its angry intentions, violently flapped its wings, and dashed into the nearby Eye of the Storm.

In that moment, all the natural energies within the Eye of the Storm were transformed into primitive energy and poured into the Prehistoric Winged Fiend’s body.

Its body began to mutate, its aura climbing higher and higher.

“Changing phases?”

Seeing this, a slight smile appeared on Jiang Chen’s lips.

“Who else doesn’t change phases?”

“Zero, are you ready.”

[Ready, Sir, let’s get started!]

Accompanying the excited shouts of Zero...

Jiang Chen, wrapped in countless tendrils within the primeval mecha, had not left the mecha.

He directly activated overload mode, and in combination with the Bio-organism Simulacra, his size gradually began to inflate.

One meter eighty, two meters, three meters, five meters, seven meters...

Then a question arose.

What happens when the original body becomes larger than the mecha and still wears it?

[Ah, I’ve been filled up by Sir...]

The original Roots mecha, which was only five meters in size, was forcibly stretched by the giant within.

However, since the primeval mecha was itself made of root fibers and was a bio-organic mecha with the ability to change shape,

the mecha itself did not burst but adapted to the changes brought by the giant’s growth.

Just like the [model Zero-Type Exoskeleton] of the past.

Now, the primeval mecha reverted to a set of thin [Roots Battle Suit], wrapping around the surface of the giant’s body.

When the [Mecha] reverts back to the [Battle Suit].

Jiang Chen, as the pilot within the battle suit, could finally use the power of his original body to participate in the battle!

To put it simply:

[Power Stack (The original body can use power, combined with the enhancement from the battle suit)]

“Captain, we’ve begun to suppress the Eye of the Storm here, we estimate that in a minute and a half, we can destroy the first Eye of the Storm and reduce the Winged Demons’ strength,” he said.

“How are things on your side?”

Team comms were quiet for a moment.

Then Jiang Chen’s voice came through.

“...Oh, I’m doing ok here,” he said.

His voice seemed a bit noisy, as if there was some kind of interference.

Lan Yi and the other two mecha pilots listened intently.

In the channel, they could hear the constant sounds of heavy strikes, collisions, and booming impacts, along with the angry and piercing cries of the winged demons.

The battle was extremely tense.

That made sense, normally the Prehistoric Winged Fiend could leave whenever it wanted, with incredible speed.

To stall and delay it, the captain must have paid a hefty price.

The three pilots looked at each other and quickly asked.

“Captain, were doing ok here, we have spare hands...”

“How much longer can you last, do you need help?” they asked.

Combat noises from the other side of the channel paused momentarily.

Jiang Chen’s voice came through.

“...Can’t last much longer, not necessary,” he replied.

What?!

Lan Yi and the others caught their breath.

They had assumed the captain would be able to stall for some time...

But he was about to reach his limit and didn’t even request support.

Could it be that the situation on the captain’s side had reached a critical life-and-death point, and he was considering giving up the challenge, withdrawing from the abyss?

If that was the case...

Then the three of them would have to quickly withdraw from the abyss as well.

Otherwise, they would be in grave danger from the Prehistoric Winged Fiend that would come chasing after them!

“Captain...”

The three looked at each other, about to speak and ask.

Suddenly, the storm ceased, numerous winged demons screamed mournfully, scattering and fleeing.

The abyss atmosphere before them morphed into text.

[Successful kill of the Lord, completing the legendary objective.]

[Number of people who passed: four]

[Level of lord strength: five]

[Calculating rewards based on the known information...]

[...]

[Calculation complete, withdrawing from the abyss in one minute.]

The settlement interface appeared before their eyes, stopping the words on the tip of their tongues.

Jiang Chen’s voice came through the channel.

“...Phew.”

“Initially, I wanted to stall for more time, got a bit carried away, and ended up killing it,” he said.

“By the way, what were you just about to say?”

“...”

So when you said you couldn’t last much longer, it was the Prehistoric Winged Fiend that couldn’t last much longer, not you!

Qing and Jian opened their mouths as if they were at a loss for words, unable to utter a single one.

Lan Yi, however, after a moment of stupor, spoke up quickly.

“Boss... which one will you target next? When do you plan to form a group? Is there a spot in your team?” he asked eagerly.

“I’ll work super hard.”
