74: Chapter 74 Cleaning Up the Battlefield
The assassin captain's expression changed drastically, his footwork suddenly shifting as he dodged with all his might, but the aftermath of the laser still fiercely swept across his left shoulder.
His shield instantly cracked, his left arm was vaporized upon impact, and the flesh on his shoulder, now missing an arm, was instantly charred by the high heat until it was a bloody mess, with the bone faintly visible.
The excruciating pain made him stagger, the Dark Spirit Blade in his hand slipped from his grip, and he no longer had the strength to charge; he took an object from his waist and dodged to the side, where a burst of light enveloped him and he vanished instantly.
Mo Yufei saw this scene and looked down at Xiao Hei. Xiao Hei understood Mo Yufei's meaning, sensed for a moment, and shook its head. Mo Yufei recalled that the person seemed to have used something just now, and that thing must have been able to teleport people away.
Now, only some remnants of the Blood Killing Hall were left on the battlefield.
Seeing this, Benboba, Da Bai, and Xiao Bai relied on their agility and keen perception, which far exceeded that of ordinary people, to move flexibly around the edge of the battlefield, specializing in sneak attacks on the enemies' vital points.
Lightning paralyzed the enemies' nerves, causing them to lose their ability to move, Wind Blade attacks struck, and Da Bai used its reinforced body to fight savagely.
Mo Yufei had originally been a bit nervous, fearing they might suffer casualties, but seeing them weaving around the enemies with speed and strength, and having a blast under the firepower advantage of the robots, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Watching the Blood Killing Hall assassins being completely suppressed, Mo Yufei decided not to send out the androids anymore.
In the rear, the two four-legged wheeled attack robots maintained an absolutely stable attack posture, while the Commander Robot locked onto targets in real-time through its optical lens, methodically adjusting its shooting angle to clear out every remaining pursuer from the Blood Killing Hall.
The screams in the forest gradually subsided, and a thick smell of blood mixed with the scent of scorched vegetation permeated the air; this ambush zone had completely become the burial ground for the Blood Killing Hall pursuers.
Mo Yufei slowly walked out from behind an ancient pine tree, looking at the battlefield before him with calm eyes, his fingertips gently rubbing the neural linker, signaling the attack robots to stop firing and enter standby mode.
Looking at the chaotic battlefield, Mo Yufei's fingertips still rested lightly on the neural linker on his wrist, confirming that the attack robots had completely entered low-power standby mode, and the two Commanders walked to his side, turning into silent guards.
The two heavy cannon robots disengaged from attack mode and walked step by step to his back; watching their movements reminded him of Dun Shan from a certain game.
Beside him, Xiao Hei indicated that within a thousand meters, there was no longer any aura fluctuation of living people, and even the remnant Ability User fluctuations of the Blood Killing Hall group had gradually dissipated along with their demise.
"It is safe."
Mo Yufei murmured softly and raised his hand to rub Xiao Hei's head; he trusted Xiao Hei's perception, so he didn't need to worry about any assassins who hadn't died completely.
He stepped into the battlefield, his feet treading on the fragmented clothing scraps and damaged equipment of the Blood Killing Hall Ability Users, his gaze quickly scanning the mess covering the ground.
These people from the Blood Killing Hall were indeed pure Ability Users; they carried almost no high-tech mechanical equipment on them, only a few personal cold weapons and simple defensive armor scattered about.
Those defensive armors had long since been completely destroyed in the collision between the robots' firepower and the abilities; the metal armor plates were twisted and deformed, and the fabric linings were scorched black by the abilities, rendering them completely useless.
Until he walked to the very center of the battlefield, under a pile of broken equipment debris and scorched earth, a dull, ink-colored cold light was faintly revealed; he reached out to push aside the debris, and a long blade with a regular shape appeared before his eyes.
This was a weapon that resembled a Tang Heng Dao, its blade covered in fine, intricate dark golden patterns, which at first glance were seven or eight parts similar to the patterns on Wang Chen's mechanical sword.
Mo Yufei reached out and grasped the hilt, feeling a slight coolness, with a weight that was just right; it should be very comfortable to wield.
He examined it carefully, his fingertips rubbing along the patterns on the blade, and he could clearly feel the faint energy circulating hidden within the patterns, yet he could never reach its core.
His gaze fell on the groove at the end of the hilt, and he recognized at a glance that this was a replaceable energy slot design.
But no matter how he tried—picking with his fingers, probing with his Soul Talent—the cover of the energy slot remained motionless, as if it had been completely locked by some special mechanism and could not be opened at all.
"A strange blade, a product combining technology, spiritual power, and abilities, yet it has the activation method locked; it seems to be special equipment from the Blood Killing Hall that others cannot easily use."
Mo Yufei murmured to himself; although he couldn't activate it for the time being, the material and array patterns of this blade were definitely not ordinary, so he casually stored the blade in his space.
He then gathered everything he deemed valuable on the battlefield and stored it all in his space.
Confirming that there were no other valuable items on the battlefield, Mo Yufei finally breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at the ten androids standing in formation nearby, and only then remembered to check their status.
The battle just now had been intense; the androids, as the initial force, had charged at the forefront and endured quite a few attacks from the Blood Killing Hall Ability Users.
At this moment, most of them bore scars; some had their biological skin torn by abilities, revealing the silver artificial muscles and circuits inside, while others had scorch marks on their outer shells, making them look quite battered.
Mo Yufei walked toward them, and his bracelet automatically established a connection with the androids, with massive amounts of status data instantly transmitting to his bracelet.
The androids simultaneously sent voice feedback, their voices steady and emotionless: "Reporting to Master, the main body has no core damage, the power system is normal, the biological artificial skin has suffered moderate to severe damage, and the underlying repair program has been activated."
"The artificial skin has self-regeneration capabilities, but the natural repair cycle is long, requiring seventy-two to one hundred twenty hours; if sufficient high-energy power blocks can be supplied, the repair time can be significantly shortened, and the repair speed is directly proportional to the energy supply."
Mo Yufei nodded slightly, understanding in his heart; these androids were indeed high-tech creations, and even if they were severely damaged, as long as the core was unharmed, they could self-repair. It was just that he didn't have an abundance of high-energy power blocks on hand, so he couldn't supply them all for rapid repair.
Just at this moment, Xue Rong, which had been quietly waiting on the side and hadn't had the chance to use its Healing Ability, saw the wounds of various sizes on the androids, and a soft light appeared in its eyes.
It subconsciously raised its paw, and the pale green Healing Ability slowly overflowed from its palm, like a gentle mist of light, drifting softly toward the injured androids.
Mo Yufei happened to be standing to the side; he was stunned for a moment, then smiled lightly and shook his head gently at Xue Rong.
"They are robots, mechanical bodies made by bionic technology, not living organisms. Your Healing Ability is useless on them, don't waste..."
But before he could finish his words, the smile on his face instantly froze, and his eyes were filled with an expression of disbelief.
