Chapter 32: Chapter 32: Rampage
Kromi anxiously shouted, "Run! Get out of here!"
At that moment, the people present finally reacted, hastily abandoning their work.
Phantom's voice suddenly echoed in Qianlong's mind.
"High-energy Higgs particle biological reaction detected, immediate evasion required."
With a thunderous roar, a massive hole suddenly tore through the originally azure sky, revealing the grotesque, writhing head of a humanoid monster with enormous red cells.
"Ah!"
A scream erupted from the crowd, and everyone began to flee.
Kromi suddenly reached out and pushed Qianlong down to the ground, "Get down."
The monster opened its mouth, and a beam of Higgs energy swept across.
With a sizzling sound, a massive explosion ensued, countless metal plates raining down from above, and the area was filled with cries of anguish and screams.
From the cracks in the ceiling, grotesque, blood-red eyeballs protruded, occasionally shifting as if searching for prey.
Then the monster extended its hands, grasping the edges of the hole, and pried it open wider.
Kromi stood up and left behind a single phrase.
"Run."
After saying that, Kromi dashed into the panicked crowd.
"What is that thing?" Qianlong was momentarily stunned.
"Matching."
"Possessing high-brightness Higgs particle biological reaction, automatically identified as a Mad Eye Rein Hawke, analyzing body structure, correction complete, this creature is an artificially created humanoid biological mech, also known as a fourth-generation mech."
"Artificial? Unknown biological Mad Eye Rein Hawke?" Qianlong was momentarily at a loss.
"Evacuate immediately," Phantom added.
The humanoid monster, Mad Eye Rein Hawke, jumped through the opening, tilting its head to emit a deafening howl.
At this moment, passageways in the area began to open one after another, and various mechs surged out, differing in models.
Those mechs charged towards the humanoid monster, unhesitatingly opening fire.
Several mechs directly opened their launch ports, firing specially made penetrating rounds (Note: weapons made from ultra-rare mineral Ying, specifically designed to deal with Mad Eye Rein Hawke).
Boom, boom, boom. Various attacks landed on the monster in an instant.
Boom. A massive explosion followed.
The tremendous shockwave knocked Qianlong off balance, and he instinctively raised his hands to protect himself.
When the explosion subsided, the Mad Eye Rein Hawke showed no signs of damage whatsoever.
Then Mad Eye Rein Hawke raised its hand towards the escape route where the crowd was fleeing.
Qianlong's heart trembled.
A beam of Higgs energy shot out.
The explosion, accompanied by blood, stained the entire area, and the nearest escape route completely collapsed.
"Damn it!" The attacking mechs, seeing their heavy weapons ineffective, drew out their energy blades and charged forward fearlessly.
The sharp energy blades lunged at Mad Eye Rein Hawke.
Clang. Just as the energy blades were about to strike, they suddenly froze in place.
It was as if an invisible force was blocking everything.
"AT Field, a special phase field activated by biological entities, equivalent to a spatial barrier that is distorted to a certain degree," Phantom analyzed.
At this moment, Qianlong finally understood why the Mad Eye Rein Hawke had shown no signs of injury under the concentrated fire.
The penetrating energy blades began to twist and then shattered.
Suddenly, red cells began to grow wildly from Mad Eye Rein Hawke, emerging from the gaps in its armored plating, sharp spikes sprouting forth, and 16 grotesque eyeballs began to move.
Then beams of light scattered in all directions.
Qianlong lay on the ground, the shadow of death looming over him, with no place to escape.
The mechs that had charged in to attack were instantly pierced by the beams of light, some even cut in half.
A secondary explosion spread out, engulfing everything in flames.
"Bastard! Bastard!" The leading Captain-class mech discarded its shattered energy blade and angrily punched at Mad Eye Rein Hawke, but no matter how it attacked, its fist could only strike against an invisible barrier.
Mad Eye Rein Hawke raised its hand and directly pierced through the mech in front of it.
Blood seeped out from the mech.
"Don't dawdle, escape to passageway number four," Kromi rushed over, holding a crying little boy, and shouted when he saw Qianlong still lying on the ground.
More and more mechs rushed in, but they were like toys, one by one being crushed.
Mad Eye Rein Hawke began to move forward.
Just as Qianlong and Kromi turned to flee towards passageway number four, a massive steel plate fell from above, crashing down right behind them.
Qianlong turned back to see that everyone fleeing behind them had been completely covered, blood spilling out. Kromi gritted his teeth and handed the crying little boy directly to Qianlong.
"Take him and go."
After saying that, Kromi turned back and charged into the fray.
Qianlong held the little boy without saying a word, leading the other survivors towards passageway number four.
Mad Eye Rein Hawke continued to stride forward, leaving destruction in its wake.
Qianlong ran swiftly while holding the little boy.
"Warning, danger approaching," Phantom's piercing alerts echoed in his mind.
Qianlong saw a massive shadow cover him, and his heart tightened.
He did not stop running, nor did he give up hope, though some people turned to look back at the Mad Eye Rein Hawke.
Instantly, they were enveloped by a sense of despair, their eyes vacant and lifeless.
Phantom's voice continued to ring out, "Danger! Danger! Automatic judgment entering defense mode."
The eyeballs of Mad Eye Rein Hawke reflected Qianlong's image.
Qianlong reached out to cover the trembling boy's eyes, knowing that the range of the attacks and explosions was so vast that there was no possibility of escape, but he did not give up, even if hope seemed so distant.
At that moment, the isolation walls on both sides of the area were smashed open.
Two fourth-generation mechs charged in, one blue and one red, sprinting at high speed.
The blue mech arrived first, leaping forward with a powerful kick.
The AT Field manifested again, but this time it was neutralized and shattered by the blue mech's AT Field.
Mad Eye Rein Hawke was directly sent flying.
The massive red mech charged forward, grabbing the humanoid monster and slamming it against the nearby wall.
Qianlong let out a long breath.
They were saved.
The mech that had kicked the monster away was the blue one, which left a deep impression on Qianlong with its long, blade-like legs.
The blue mech pulled out a specially made energy blade from its leg joint.
Then it charged forward, delivering a fierce stab into Mad Eye Rein Hawke's body.
As Mad Eye Rein Hawke was stabbed, its cells began to reproduce violently, and the blue mech quickly withdrew the energy blade, jumping back.
The energy blade was instantly devoured by the red cells.
Then Mad Eye Rein Hawke raised its head and let out a piercing scream.
The red mech that had been suppressing it was sent flying by the immense force.
The situation did not seem very good.
"Without using large weapons, it is impossible to destroy its covering spore layer, and it cannot be stopped. Requesting the use of large weapons," the pilot of the red mech reported.
