A 360-degree virtual projection with no blind spots, combined with a ship-slaying sword long enough to cut down monsters, became the basic configuration of this ten-meter-long humanoid mech.
Swish!
A flash of light, and the monster's head was severed from its body.
Several monsters that had just leaped up and tried to jump over the ravine were killed by the crimson mech before they could even scream.
However, this is not the end.
Click!
With a soft click, the shoulder armor of the crimson mech suddenly opened.
Two small drones took advantage of the situation and flew out from inside the armor, activating an autonomous navigation energy attack mode.
Silence! Silence! Silence!
Although it was only equipped with low-power laser weapons.
However, the lethality of small drones in such urban warfare is in no way inferior to that of advanced weaponry.
Putting aside everything else, the performance of those hideous monsters has already proven its effectiveness.
The monsters that had been fiercely attacking Asuka Shin and Yumimura Ryo were now forced to flee in disarray under the pursuit of the crimson mechs, without even a chance to put up a fight.
......................................................................................................
Unlike Shin Asuka's excitement, Ryo Yumimura calmly walked towards the blue mecha that belonged to her.
"It's great to fight alongside you again, my 'Phantom Girl'!"
When the intelligent voice of the blue mecha rang in Ryo Yumimura's ears, she rarely showed a helpless, bitter smile.
"Stop calling me 'Phantom Girl,' it sounds really embarrassing!"
Faced with his pilot's statement, the blue mech simply opened its cockpit and then spoke in a slightly teasing tone.
"Yes, I will report your suggestion to the 'mastermind'."
“However, before that, the pseudonym you registered with me was ‘Phantom Girl’.”
As an AI mech that is constantly connected to the mainframe, the blue mech's statement is clearly an attempt to shirk responsibility.
"Stop mentioning your 'mainframe' to me. I've never seen any AI that likes to give people nicknames so much."
"I jumped straight into the cockpit," Yumimura Ryo retorted irritably.
Whether it's a hot-blooded young man or a phantom girl...
These cringeworthy and somewhat embarrassing nicknames were not chosen by the driver himself.
The massive intelligent central hub connecting all the individual combat mechs is the mastermind behind all of this.
"If this is your order, Wu is happy to sever the connection with the mainframe."
"But before that, I must remind you that the 'mastermind' personality on duty today is Karen, and she's always been very petty."

Chapter 756 General-purpose anti-monster weapon
The crimson mech and the blue mech were deployed shortly after each other.
Thus began a counterattack against these hideous monsters.
After summoning the individual combat mechs, the combat capabilities of the Kyushu Victory Team branch were significantly enhanced.
The encirclement, extending inwards, is gradually shrinking the living space of these hideous monsters until they are completely wiped out.
Among them, the red and blue mechs stood out the most.
Shin Asuka, the pilot of the red mecha, is a top student at the TPC Training Academy, standing out from countless talented trainees.
His piloting style was very academic; with just a ship-slaying sword and a submachine gun, he was able to cut through the entire enemy formation.
During this process, Shin Asuka changed his hot-blooded and reckless personality, perfectly seizing every opportunity to kill all the ugly monsters within sight.
Aside from occasionally being misled by monsters and falling into traps due to a lack of combat experience, it basically did not show any weaknesses that could be exploited.
In contrast, the pilot of the blue mecha, Ryo Yumimura, is a complete combat expert.
Do everything possible to avoid close combat with the monsters, using a super-large sniper rifle in your hand that can pierce through the bodies of several monsters with a single shot.
Moreover, Ryo Yumimura's understanding of combat extends beyond the weapons in her hands.
The rocks underfoot, the collapsed houses, even the monsters' missteps in positioning...
All of these will become the means and opportunities for the blue mechs to slaughter these ugly monsters.
In just a brief encounter of less than a minute, Ryo Yumimura achieved the terrifying statistic of "number one in kills".
Unfortunately, the monsters could only watch helplessly as all this happened, with no chance of actually getting close to the blue mech.
boom! boom! boom!
It's like a blue waltz leaping across a battlefield.
The blue mech will not stay in any one place for more than three seconds; its powerful engine and streamlined structure give it an overwhelming advantage in maneuverability.
For a time, the only sound on the battlefield where the blue mech was located was the constant echo of its gunfire.
......................................................................................................
In the command room of the Victory Team's Kyushu branch.
"good!"
Looking at the blue mecha that was wreaking havoc, Kibi Kosuke's face showed a worried expression, which was unusual for him.
No one among the members present understood Yumimura Ryo's experiences and psychological burden better than Kibi Kosuke.
Don't be fooled by how flashy Yumimura Ryo's fighting style is.
But that is based on the premise of attracting the enemy and placing oneself in a dangerous situation.
If the blue mech is not careful, it will almost certainly mean the death of the pilot if it falls into an enemy trap or encirclement.
In comparison, the Crimson Mech piloted by Shin Asuka represents the combat method with the lowest risk factor.
It is capable of both melee and ranged combat, and even if it is ambushed by the enemy once or twice, it can quickly seize the opportunity to escape the battlefield.
"Captain! Something terrible has happened!"
Just as Kibi was worried about Yumimura Ryo, part-time analyst Nakajima Tsutomu suddenly shouted in horror.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
Startled from his thoughts, Kibi Gosuke asked in a serious, low voice.
“Those Kiakuda ‘fission variants’... are merging…”
With an air of disbelief in his voice, Tsutomu Nakajima quickly projected the satellite images onto the large screen.
Those hideous monsters seemed to feel immense pressure from the members of the GUTS branch, and some of them began to actively merge and change.
In the blink of an eye, many small monsters of the same size (ten meters) appeared in the center of the battlefield.
The appearance of these small monsters successfully put the previously rampaging solo combat mechs in a difficult situation, and some unsuspecting team members were even seriously injured as a result.
"How is that possible? How could they have merged?"
"And where does the energy they consume come from? The city's electricity shouldn't be able to support their gigantic size, right?"
Although it was his first time fighting the electric-absorbing monster, Kiakuda.
However, through the data and popular science information released by the GUTS team, even ordinary citizens know that monsters need a huge amount of energy to support their growth into giant sizes.
However, looking at the city as a whole, the Victory Team had already notified the local government to cut off the power supply, and those Kiakuda "fission variants" simply did not have the conditions to grow to gigantic size.
"It's the Galvin Company! Their real target is the Galvin Company!"
As Tsutomu Nakajima quickly zoomed in on the map to cover the entire Kyushu Island.
It was then that Kibi Gosuke noticed that those seemingly scattered "fission variants" were actually moving around a certain point in the center of the map.
The previous surprise attacks were merely to draw the attention of the Victory Team and disperse the truly combat-capable frontline members.
"Inside this Gailvin Corporation building, there is an 'antimatter furnace' that is still in the experimental stage."
“Those ‘fission variants’ obtained the energy that enabled them to undergo fusion mutations by infiltrating the building’s energy pipelines.”
They immediately contacted employees within the Galvin company, and then Nakajima Tsutomu dropped another bombshell with bad news.
"In addition, in an underground space not far from this Galvin Corporation building, there is a special project underway called 'General-Purpose Anti-Monster Weapon'..."
"If those 'fission variants' discover that underground space, it will likely cause an even greater disaster!"
His pupils constricted sharply, and Kibi Gosuke's face turned even more grim.
"These damn big interest groups are secretly conducting some shady research projects behind TPC's back again..."
"And why would such a dangerous project be located near a city?"
Faced with Kibi Kosuke's angry questioning, Nakajima Tsutomu could only turn his head away in silence.
He can't very well say that the project was actually brought in by the Kyushu local government on its own initiative, can he?
In today’s increasingly competitive environment within TPC, what’s a little risk if we can attract a large group like the Galvin Group to invest locally?
Moreover, the Galvin Group has always had a good international reputation, and there have been virtually no reports of accidents.
At least compared to the accident-prone Cedik, the Galvin Group's reputation is undoubtedly much better.
As for "general-purpose anti-monster weapon"?
Then we'd probably have to ask the increasingly influential militant faction within TPC.
"Damn it! We'll talk about holding people accountable later!"
"Immediately notify all members to prevent those 'fission variants' from gathering further near the Gelvin Group building!"

Chapter 757 Artificial Light Technology
"Stop these monsters from reaching the Galvin Corporation building?"
When Shin Asuka received the order from Gosuke Kibi, he was momentarily stunned as he was actively fighting on the front lines.
But then, when he saw the underground space marked "Top Secret Experiment" not far from the Galvin Group building, he instantly realized the seriousness of the situation.
Regardless of what kind of secret experiments are taking place there.
Once these hideous monsters appear there, they will inevitably cause unimaginable serious consequences.
Furthermore, the "antimatter furnace" being developed inside the Gailvin Group building could raise the danger level to another level.
"Hot-blooded kid!"
"Request 'super administrator privileges' from the mastermind!"
Just as Shin Asuka was hesitating about how to stop the impending disaster, the Crimson Mech's artificial intelligence offered timely advice.
"Super administrator privileges?"
Upon hearing the Crimson Mech's suggestion, Shin Asuka was stunned once again.
Outsiders may not understand what "super administrator privileges" mean, but how could Asuka Shin, who has a formal academic background, not understand its meaning?
For ordinary members of the Victory Team, they usually only have the right to pilot the mechs.
Only those with formal training in mecha repair, like Shin Asuka, possess higher-level administrator privileges.
When necessary, Shin Asuka can even use a method similar to "overload" to allow the mecha to unleash power beyond its own limits.
However, super administrator privileges are even higher than administrator privileges.
Once Asuka Shin applies for this permission, it means that he will be able to adjust and modify the mecha's internal programs and external structure within his own capabilities.
Considering the dangers of this access, and the importance of the mech itself...
Even among dedicated logistics personnel, only a few have this authority.
"How is that possible? How could I possibly get approved?!"
