Clatter—
Suddenly, the dense sounds of mechanical components moving overwhelmed the roars of the Monsters.
The next second, countless barrages of artillery fire erupted. Dazzling flashes of light briefly dispelled the gloom of the overcast sky.
The Monsters rushing towards the area all paused, blocked by the metal torrent a hundred meters away.
At the same time, hundreds of Mechanical Beasts in the shapes of wolves, leopards, and spiders, raced to the left and right. Their movements were agile and fluid, just like real creatures. From a distance, they looked like a pack of wolves about to hunt.
A swarm of Mechanical Soldiers rose into the air, meeting the flying Monsters head-on. Hundreds of flying turrets lined up on both sides, spewing out dazzling energy beams and blasting the flying Monsters.
All the Monsters within the attack range were torn apart, not a single one survived. They exploded into dark red light particles, which then re-condensed into strange-looking items. These were the materials dropped upon killing the Monsters.
Fifteen strangely shaped, boar-like Mechanical Beasts roamed the battlefield. Their heads were close to the ground, and their nostrils and open mouths had a powerful suction force, sucking up the materials on the ground one by one and storing them in the space within their bellies.
"Mechanical Power can transmit my will to the mechanical creations, allowing them to act according to my desires."
Far away, Tony Stark, controlling his mechanical creations to fight against the mindless Monsters, had an excited gleam in his eyes.
Kayaba Akihiko watched the battlefield in the distance, his eyes reflecting the Monsters constantly turning into materials, and suddenly felt a little tempted, wanting to change his profession to become a Mechanic.
The reason why? Because Mechanics made money incredibly fast!
However, as the thought just arose, his peripheral vision caught sight of the Mechanical Soldiers and Mechanical Beasts being torn to pieces by the Monsters. Those scattered metal parts looked like torn-up money to Kayaba Akihiko...
Although the money-making speed was fast, it was also very costly. I'm not confident I can guarantee I'll definitely make money.
Kayaba Akihiko shook his head, shaking off the unreliable thought in his mind.
After the mechanical creations and the Monsters had been fighting for a quarter of an hour, Tony Stark suddenly said, "The ammunition in the mechanical creations is almost used up. I'm going to recall them. You all need to hold on for a while!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, the mobile artillery platform slowly retreated, with the Mechanical Soldiers and Mechanical Beasts covering its withdrawal.
Kayaba Akihiko, Steve, and Bucky watched the dark mass of Monsters surging towards them, and their mouths twitched in unison.
You sure had fun, didn't you? But could you at least make it last a little longer?
You lured so many Monsters here for us to fight?!
Are we supposed to fight them with our lives?!
Kayaba Akihiko turned away, raised his left hand, and said, "You guys hold them off! I'm taking off!"
Could you not be so decisive?! Show some loyalty!
Steve and Bucky glared at Kayaba Akihiko in fury.
Tony Stark said calmly, "I'll pay extra!"
Hearing this, Kayaba Akihiko asked, "How much extra?"
"How about 150,000?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Kayaba Akihiko drew the sword from his shield and waved it towards the Monster horde. "Steve, use a Special Attack on the Monster horde first to delay their pursuit, buying the Mechanical forces some time to retreat."
Steve nodded and flew into the air, gathering energy to unleash his Special Attack.
Then, Kayaba Akihiko looked at Bucky and said, "Bucky, get ready. When the aftershocks fade, I'll throw you into the Monster horde. Try to freeze as many Monsters as possible."
Bucky: ?
Throw me into the Monster horde?
"Are you even speaking human?!"
"No, are you even human?"
Bucky's disbelieving gaze was too piercing. Kayaba Akihiko felt uncomfortable under the scrutiny, but he still didn't back down. Instead, he steeled himself and explained, "You can elementalize. Monsters can't hurt you..."
"I believe your evil!" I saw it clearly! Those Monsters spit fire!
Bucky pointed at the Monsters spewing flames and glared at Kayaba Akihiko.
At this moment, Steve had accumulated enough energy. He immediately transformed into a ball of fiercely burning flames, like an arrow of fire released from a bowstring, streaking across the sky and crashing into the Monster tide.
"Great Flame Ring..."
Upon landing, several spiraling rings of flames rapidly expanded, igniting the Monsters along their path. Thousands of Monsters struggled and wailed within the sea of fire.
The spreading flames quickly gathered, coalescing into a sun-like fireball. The intense heat caused the temperature in the air to rise.
"Great Flame Ring!"
To unleash a Special Attack, one must announce the technique's name. Steve roared as he hurled the fireball towards the Monster horde.
The next moment, dazzling light burst forth, as if a sun was slowly rising, sending scorching winds in all directions.
Kayaba Akihiko and the others instinctively closed their eyes, shielding them from the blinding light.
After a minute or two, the fireball, powerful enough to destroy a city, dissipated, leaving behind a swathe of molten earth, still radiating intense heat.
With a single blow, tens of thousands of Monsters were annihilated, clearing a vast area and virtually wiping out the Monsters pursuing the Mechanical Soldiers.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Mechanical Soldiers quickly retreated.
Kayaba Akihiko's gaze swept over the Mechanical Soldiers, fixing on the empty space. His right arm shot forward, fingers clamping down on the belt of Bucky's custom combat suit.
Sensing Kayaba Akihiko's movement, Bucky instinctively tensed his backside.
The next moment, a thought struck Bucky, his expression turning to shock and fury. He was about to turn his head and say something, but the first word was already out, "You..."
However, Kayaba Akihiko had no intention of letting him finish. His left leg lunged forward, his right arm swung back and then forward, and Bucky, like a discarded rag, was swung by Kayaba Akihiko, then flung away.
Although Bucky was a broad-shouldered, thick-waisted strong man, his strength was nothing compared to Kayaba Akihiko's. Therefore, in Kayaba Akihiko's hands, Bucky had no power to resist.
Kayaba Akihiko, you bastard!
Bucky streaked across the sky, seemingly shouting something in agitation, but the wind roaring into his mouth made his words impossible to understand.
Bang——!
Bucky slammed into the ground, the violent impact shattering him into hundreds of ice shards. One of the shards quickly expanded, transforming back into Bucky in a second or two.
"Ka! Ya! Ba! Ahihiko!"
Bucky roared, slamming his right fist into the ground, a path of frost rapidly spreading outwards.
Boom——!!!
Thick ice walls rose slowly from the path of frost, intercepting some of the Monsters.
"...He's really angry!"
Kayaba Akihiko, who was moving at high speed across the battlefield, cutting down the Monsters within the ice walls, said with a blank expression, "It's probably best not to hang around Bucky for a while."
A few minutes later, the Mechanical units had retreated.
Kayaba Akihiko moved through the wave of Monsters, a blur of motion, zipping around in Bucky's field of vision.
