Chapter 166: Breaking In (First Update)

Taiboken City, Western Suburbs.

One after another, Second Generation Mecha · Raider approached, cautiously surveying their surroundings.

“Safe!”

“No abnormalities!”

“Received!”

A response quickly echoed through the communication channel.

Not long after, a dense formation of mecha troops and ground personnel, led by Begfins, advanced. They then stopped in front, gazing into the distance.

Approximately ten kilometers in front of them lay a colossal base city, constructed from countless steel and metal parts.

The entire base city covered an area of over one thousand square kilometers. Its outermost perimeter was a protective wall, nearly half of which had collapsed, with broken concrete and twisted steel frameworks exposed to the air.

Inside, towering skyscrapers made of steel and winding, broken aerial rails stood.

And in the central area of the base city, a three-thousand-meter-tall, pagoda-shaped building stood. This building was the most famous landmark of Taiboken Transit Country, known as the Tower of the World.

At this moment, this Tower of the World had broken in the middle, and the fractured part had crushed dozens of nearby buildings.

The entire base city no longer retained its former prosperity; burning flames and rolling black smoke were everywhere.

Of course, these were not important. What was important was that Begfins and the others, zooming in their view through optical devices, saw countless Kirami darting through the air above the base city like ghosts, as if searching for something.

At this moment, Irelia, piloting a Second Generation Mecha · Raider, walked to Begfins’ side. She gazed at the distant Taiboken City, her eyes flickering.

Begfins, looking at the tragic scene before him, spoke in a deep voice to Irelia.

“The situation is not good. Taiboken City seems to have completely fallen. No defensive weapons have been observed retaliating! Look at the number of Kirami hovering over the city; it’s ridiculously high.”

Irelia also frowned tightly and said to Begfins.

“Now we have no retreat. No matter how strong the enemy is, we must attack and break in. When rivals meet on a narrow road, the brave one wins!”

“Good! Since that’s the case, without further ado, let’s launch a full assault and break in!”

Begfins wasted no words.

“Mm!”

Irelia nodded.

“Everyone, victory is within reach. Though countless monsters block our way, they are nothing to fear. Everyone, follow me!”

After Begfins finished speaking to the crowd, he took the lead and charged towards Taiboken City.

“Kill!”

Aquia and the others, in high spirits, controlled their mechas and followed.

Looking down from a high altitude, a spectacular scene could be seen: mechas fearlessly charging towards the fallen base city.

Begfins and his team did not choose to charge in from the air because doing so would expose too wide an area and attract a massive siege by Kirami.

However, even though they chose to fly low to the ground, as they approached the transit city, some of the Kirami hovering in the air still discovered them, and one by one, they turned and swooped down with a roar.

“Lord Begfins, those Kirami in the sky are coming for us!”

Urga, piloting a Third Generation Mecha · Wind Chaser, flew while reminding Begfins.

“Urga, you take a portion of the men and provide suppressing fire. The rest of you, don’t stop; accelerate and charge with me. Our goal is to break into the city.”

Begfins issued a simple command.

“Understood!”

Urga immediately led a team, detaching from the main force to the left, and began firing at the Kirami attacking from the sky.

On one hand, this could intercept them, and on the other hand, it would draw all the attention of these Kirami onto themselves, ensuring the main force’s movement.

It must be said that their combat strategy was very effective. The first wave of attacking Kirami, after being attacked by Urga and his team, immediately shifted their aggro to them.

Soon, Begfins and his team approached Taiboken City, quickly crossing the collapsed city wall. However, just then, figures resembling zombies emerged from the collapsed buildings and streets ahead. Looking around, all these deformed figures were Kirami parasites, their numbers terrifyingly high. But it was normal, after all, the entire Taiboken City had fallen.

These Kirami parasites, one by one, opened their mouths, emitting ear-piercing roars, and then attacked Begfins like a tide.

“Kill!”

Begfins, like a fierce beast, led the charge, colliding with the surging tide of parasites.

He swung the two particle lightsabers in his hands, sweeping them across!

Swathes of Kirami parasites were cut apart like trash, and at the same time, the cellular tissue in the severed parts was largely vaporized.

Immediately after, Aquia and the others also crashed into the monster tide.

They were like a sharp blade, forcefully tearing through the monster tide and successfully breaking into Taiboken City.

However, upon entering the architectural zone, they soon encountered greater resistance. As they advanced along the street, one after another, Kirami of different forms burst out from the rooftops and windows of the buildings on both sides of the street without warning!

Some mechas couldn’t react in time and were directly tackled by the Kirami, which frantically differentiated cellular matter and infiltrated the cockpits.

“Ah~”

Screams constantly echoed through the communication channel.

“Damn it!”

Begfins sliced a Type II Chirami aggregate in half with his sword, then turned to look at the team members behind him, cursing in anger.

And just then, suddenly, pairs of blood-red eyes lit up behind the nearby buildings.

The scanning device of the Tier 4 Mecha · Shadow Slayer immediately blared an ear-piercing alarm.

Begfins suddenly turned his head to look, only to see three fifteen-meter-tall, humanoid-bodied, fully bone-ossified, bone-horned on both sides of their heads, and black-patterned skin Type III Elite Kilami parasites reviving from their suspended animation. They charged out at extreme speed.

A Second Generation Mecha was caught off guard and was immediately pierced through its cockpit by the sharp claws of a Type III Elite Kilami, eliminated on the spot!

“Seeking death!”

Begfins controlled his mecha to rush forward, slicing off the right arm of this Type III Elite Kilami with one sword, and then backhanding to sever its head.

Aquia and the others, piloting Third Generation Mecha · Wind Chaser, also engaged the other two Type III Elite Kilami.

At this point, more and more Kirami gathered towards this location, and the entire area directly became a meat grinder battlefield.
