[2] Genius Mechanic

Chapter 384

Military Order

The coolant plus the Border Army's freezing bombs should have both power and anomalous control stronger than their mecha weapons. Even if they were covered, they should still be able to hold on for a dozen seconds or so. Ying Chenlin controlled the mecha to dodge the Tree of Life's sweep. With a raise of his head, he saw the sticky substance controlled by the Tree of Life increasing around him. "It seems like the Tree of Life has gotten stronger."

"Wait! These bombs have angered this thing!" Hu Luobu saw the rapidly rising deepwater at the bottom.

The Dawn team's joy lasted only a few seconds. The freezing bombs enhanced by the coolant gradually got covered by the petrified deepwater surface. The Border Army's freezing bombs from above continued to fall, seemingly provoking the Tree of Life. The steadily rising deepwater began to spread widely, and the previously controlled deepwater rose faster.

Ji Qingfeng: "Damn, I'm angry. Can it keep getting stronger?"

Zhao Lejie's shield, originally maintaining a distance of over a meter from the deepwater, suddenly shrunk by half a meter. His temper flared up at this moment: "This stupid thing can't handle it. Getting angry? Do you have the ability to rise?!"

In the previously established communication channels, there was a surge of Border Army personnel who had been urgently brought in. In the channels without special privileges, there was a cacophony of voices. The Dawn team almost recklessly exchanged communication and insults with the Tree of Life's pollutants. The other Border Army personnel were momentarily stunned, unsure whether to control the situation first or listen to them finish cursing.

Hu Luobu looked at the rising deepwater: "Shut up!"

The Border Army on the high-altitude warship was the first to detect the problem. The system detected by the high-altitude detected that the energy node outside the K-UYT orbit 017 was destroyed. The Border Army immediately disconnected the orbit of 30 nodes numbered 001-030. However, the barely surviving remote monitoring system showed that some energy nodes had not been completely destroyed.

"General!" A Border Army officer shouted in the channel, "30 energy nodes, only 12 have been absorbed!"

Hearing this from the Border Army, Luo Xu and the Dawn team immediately understood that this Tree of Life could still get stronger. As it absorbed more energy, the height covered by the deepwater here might eventually progress to completely covering the mechas. Their fighting time would be greatly reduced.

Qie Sicheng immediately thought of what Ying Chenlin had said earlier, "Its roots are still extending outward, and the speed at which energy nodes are absorbed is the length of its spread!"

This pollutant seemed to control all the nodes, but in fact, while it controlled them, its rate of energy absorption was not as fast as its rate of deepwater coverage. It first enclosed the energy within its territory, then quickly increased its strength.

At this moment, the Tree of Life launched an attack on the mechas that had intruded into its territory again. The high-altitude coolant and shells dropped onto the deepwater caused a minor impact, which it hated. The branches that spread from the deepwater were faster than before, all charging towards the attacking mecha masters.

The difficulty for the Dawn team increased once again. Lin Yao felt that his gravity gun was about to break. "I can't hold on much longer!"

Ying Chenlin's gaze fell on the signal tower under Luo Xu's feet. The height of this signal tower was higher than the original starting point, and with the Border Army, this signal tower should be equipped with a special interference-type anomalous crystal, making it extremely stable when it fell into the deepwater. The deepwater did not cover the signal tower as it did with the orbit previously. "Without coolant, we need altitude!"
