They maintained various attack postures, as if the whole world had been paused.
The next second, their hard alloy bodies shattered silently.
With a single step, in the time it takes to breathe, hundreds of elite combat robots were wiped out.
However, this is just the beginning.
Further into the passage ahead, more red dots lit up, seemingly without end.
The second and third waves of robots, like an enraged swarm of ants, trampled over the remains of their comrades and surged forward fearlessly once more.
This time, the robot army changed its strategy.
Instead of engaging in complex coordinated attacks, they opted for suppressive fire.
"Fire! Fire! Suppressive fire!"
A second wave of attacks followed immediately.
Thousands of incandescent white energy rays burst forth from all directions at the same time.
There were almost no gaps between the beams, and Lin Mo's location and the surrounding tens of meters were completely covered, leaving him with nowhere to hide or retreat.
Such a concentrated barrage of fire, the total energy released in an instant, has even surpassed that of the main cannon of the Machine God "Thunder".
The temperature in the entire hangar rose sharply, and the air even hissed as it was scorched by the energy.
Chapter 89 KING vs. the Robot Army (Part 2)
However, upon experiencing the power of these lasers, Lin Mo simply shook his head.
He raised his right hand.
Dozens of fist-sized, pure golden energy balls quietly appeared in his palm.
They floated silently, radiating a warm light that made the surrounding violent white energy rays pale in comparison.
Lin Mo uttered a single word softly.
The next second, those dozens of golden energy balls seemed to come alive and instantly began to split wildly!
One becomes two, two becomes four, four becomes eight... It's almost a crazy surge!
In the blink of an eye, countless golden energy orbs floated in mid-air around Lin Mo, their number even exceeding that of the robots present!
Immediately afterwards, driven by Lin Mo's will, the golden energy pulsed.
All the golden energy orbs transformed into dazzling golden meteors at the same time, tearing through the white energy in front of them and shooting out in all directions!
Each golden energy blast, traveling at a speed far exceeding that of an energy ray, precisely targeted a combat robot.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!..."
Explosions came and went.
The sturdy combat robots were easily pierced the moment they came into contact with the golden energy blast.
Immediately afterwards, golden energy erupted within them, completely detonating them from the inside out.
Lin Mo stood quietly in the center of this destructive storm, watching the flames of the explosion.
Inside the control room, the doctor, his face deathly pale, watched as the dots representing his own units on the main screen went out in swathes.
The image transmitted from the monitor had been completely swallowed up by a dazzling gold.
"Combat troops... 92% casualty rate... Remaining units have lost contact..."
The cold, detached notification sound struck his heart like a heavy hammer.
But his hands didn't stop moving at all; instead, they became even faster due to the surge of adrenaline.
"Data backup complete! Begin final transfer!"
"Purification process countdown: 60 seconds."
Success! Just a few dozen more seconds and the data will be delivered safely!
He suddenly raised his head, his bloodshot eyes fixed on the figure slowly emerging from the golden flames on the screen.
Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately smashed a scarlet button on the control panel.
"Activate all reserve energy! Activate all dormant units! Give me... use your bodies... to stop him!"
At the very bottom of the base, there were engineering robots used for construction and maintenance, new models of robots that had not yet been fully tested, and even some unfinished products that had only been installed with basic combat programs...
At that moment, their electronic eyes, regardless of whether they were new or old, or of any model, all lit up with a scarlet light.
Driven by the highest command, these various mechanized units formed the last line of defense, rushing out from various maintenance channels and secret warehouses and surging towards Lin Mo.
Lin Mo had reached the end of the passage, where a huge central elevator platform connecting the various levels of the base was located.
The last of the "soldier" surrounded him from all sides, completely encircling him.
He seemed to have finally grown tired of this tedious "cleaning" work.
He stopped and slowly raised his right hand, palm facing upward.
A highly condensed, dark golden energy ball, radiating an aura of destruction, rapidly took shape and expanded in his palm.
A terrifying pressure that sent chills down your spine instantly enveloped the entire base.
"It's time to finish."
He spoke softly, then gently pushed the dark golden energy ball in his hand forward toward the ground.
The dark golden energy ball left his hand without making a sound, drifting slowly and steadily forward.
The moment it touched the ground, the whole world seemed to be muted.
The dark golden energy ball transformed into a perfectly circular destructive shockwave, spreading evenly in all directions.
Wherever this shockwave passed, robots, alloy walls, and solid ground were completely destroyed.
The wave of destruction was sweeping across the entire vast Seventh Base Area with unstoppable force.
Inside the central control room.
"Core data transfer complete!"
"Warning! High-intensity energy reaction detected! Base self-destruction countdown: 30 seconds."
Upon hearing the two system notifications that sounded almost simultaneously, the doctor's nerves, which had been stretched to their limit, finally relaxed.
He practically scrambled to pull the black memory device, which served as a physical backup, from the ground and clutched it tightly in his hand.
A fanatical and satisfied smile spread across his face before he turned and rushed toward the single-person escape tunnel that had already been opened behind him.
"For the evolution of the organization—!!!"
He roared with all his might, and his figure disappeared into the darkness of the passage without looking back.
The instant he vanished, a destructive dark golden energy wave swept through the entire control room, completely erasing all the equipment and every trace of his existence.
On the ground, an abandoned industrial area.
"Boom——"
A deafening roar came from deep underground, and the entire earth trembled violently.
Several already dilapidated abandoned factory buildings could no longer withstand the sudden and violent earthquake, groaning under the strain before collapsing with a deafening roar.
After a long while, when the tremors subsided and the smoke and dust slowly dissipated, the industrial area returned to a deathly silence under the cover of night.
Amidst the collapsed ruins, Lin Mo's figure slowly emerged.
His ordinary coat was still spotless, without even a single wrinkle, as if he had just gone out to enjoy the night view and was returning from a walk.
He looked up at the night sky, which was somewhat illuminated by the city's light pollution. A cool evening breeze ruffled his hair.
His mental power allowed him to sense that the vast base underground had been completely transformed into a huge cavity.
At the same time, he also sensed a faint energy signal that was rapidly disappearing into the distance through an extremely deep underground tunnel.
"Did you run away..."
Lin Mo did not chase after him, but stood still, lost in thought for a moment.
"Who is behind all this, an organization of robots of such a scale..." he muttered to himself.
He glanced at the direction the doctor had fled in; the other person was moving very fast and had gradually run out of the limits of his mental perception.
"Never mind." Lin Mo withdrew his gaze. "They will take action eventually. Let's wait and see."
He turned around, put his hands back in his pockets, and disappeared back into the city night, as if nothing had happened.
Chapter 90 Hot Spring Trip
Some time has passed since the destruction of City A. With the concerted efforts of the Hero Association and various parties, the new City A, connecting to various cities, was completed in about ten days.
This invasion war, launched by the cosmic overlord Boros, sounded an alarm for the entire Earth civilization.
However, in the end, victory still belongs to humanity.
To honor the heroes who made outstanding contributions in this battle, especially the S-class heroes, the Hero Association organized an unprecedented two-day, one-night hot spring trip.
The location was chosen as a top-tier hot spring resort nestled deep in the mountains, far from the hustle and bustle of the city.
The beautiful scenery and peaceful atmosphere here stand in stark contrast to the apocalyptic war that occurred not long ago.
The association had booked the entire resort, and when the group of S-class heroes arrived in their private cars, senior association officials were already waiting to greet them at the entrance.
"Heroes, you've had a long journey! Please enjoy the holiday the association has prepared for you!" The association's leader said with a smile and a bow.
"Tch, they really know how to pick a location, in this godforsaken mountain valley."
The petite figure hovered in mid-air, the S-rank 2 "Tornado of Terror" with her arms crossed, pouting and looking impatient.
But she did not fly away.
"Hehe, I think this place is quite nice, it's peaceful."
Bang, ranked 3rd in the S-class, stroked his beard, admiring the surrounding red leaves with a contented expression.
The heroes disembarked one after another. Apart from Blast, the S-class No. 1 who had been absent for many years, and Metal Knight and Drive Knight who refused to participate due to their mission, all the other S-class heroes were present.
