Chapter 101: The Beginning of Chaos

As soon as Lin Lei was teleported to Rumba City, the first things that reached his ears were the sounds of explosions, crying, and howling throughout the city. Last night, it was still an orderly economic center, but now it had become a place of chaos.

The sky was filled with Mechas and small starships everywhere. Most of the Mechas were Silver Mechas; it was surprising that so many completed forms of these Dark Remnants had appeared, while the starships were the emergency peacekeeping forces of the Apocalypse Civilization.

The two sides were fighting fiercely, but the situation was one-sided. The hit rate of the Apocalypse starships was terrible to watch; many starships even lost control instantly and crashed headfirst into buildings. The number of starships in the sky was decreasing rapidly.

Needless to say, the Apocalypse side knew nothing about the skills of the Silver Mechas and was suffering a great loss now.

The presence of so many Silver Mechas raised the sense of crisis in Lin Lei’s heart to the peak! His mind became incredibly focused again, and Combat Element Condensation was activated unprecedentedly.

Before his eyes, there were so many objects and overlapping phantoms that they almost filled the sky. The movement trajectory of every Silver Mecha appeared in his sight.

This massive amount of information made Lin Lei feel that his eyes had completely lost their function; he was seeing and judging directly with his brain.

His Universe, at this moment, was completely black, and those bright lines were the trajectories of energy deduced under the control of the Law.

As soon as his pitch-black Crystallized Mecha appeared in the sky of Rumba City, it attracted the attention of countless Silver Mechas and Apocalypse starships.

A warrior of the Watcher Civilization?

Subsequently, nearly twenty Silver Mechas surrounded and attacked Lin Lei, and they immediately launched a Will binding attack on him.

In Lin Lei’s world, these silver phantoms also emitted waves one after another. These waves were like water waves in a pond, and their frequencies were actually the same!

Just like the water waves in a pond, in this three-dimensional space, the same waves unavoidably produced an interference phenomenon. In some places in the space, the Will binding was strengthened, and in some places, it was weakened. There were even extreme spots where the effect of the Will binding almost did not exist!

These interference effects changed very quickly, but they were captured by Lin Lei, whose brain was operating at an unprecedentedly high speed. He started to move, following a nearly bizarre route in which the Will binding Lin Lei received was minimized.

The Energy Binding Weapon in Lin Lei’s hand turned into a long spear. This was the strongest point-attack method he possessed and was also most suitable for group battles.

Compared to his ordinary talent in long-range shooting, Lin Lei possessed a terrifying performance in close combat. In terms of killing efficiency, the latter was far higher than the former.

One second later, the first Silver Mecha was blown up. Lin Lei’s long spear sank into the front chest of the Mecha and was then pulled out from the back. This unlucky Silver Mecha was then stomped down from a height of hundreds of meters by the following Lin Lei and exploded and disintegrated directly in the air.

Lin Lei also used the force of this recoil to burst out with speed again, quickly arriving in front of the second Mecha along the weak line of the Will binding. Then, another Silver Mecha was destroyed.

All this happened in just a few short seconds. The failure of the Will binding, especially on such a scale, stunned these Dark Remnants. By the time they realized what was happening, the third Silver Mecha was already in an extremely dangerous situation.

“Scatter! Keep the maximum distance to attack!” This guy’s close-combat power was too terrifying. As long as he got close, the Silver Mechas could not escape the fate of being killed instantly.

The elites of these Dark Remnants had a clear division of labor. Some performed Will binding on Lin Lei, and some fired energy rays at the Crystallized Mecha. In this situation, it was almost a dead end!

But all the division of labor could not make up for the defects of the Silver Mecha pilots. These Dark Remnants were not warriors before they were infected; what they followed was merely ordinary combat wisdom. What they had been dealing with before were just ordinary people!

For a combat master like Lin Lei, any tiny flaw was enough to serve as a breakthrough point to completely turn the tide of the battle.

And these Dark Remnants were more than a step behind Lin Lei in the battle itself.

Their Will binding had very little effect on Lin Lei, and the energy rays they fired were all blocked by Lin Lei’s long spear. From time to time, a Silver Mecha that was slightly careless was caught by Lin Lei and killed instantly.

This was a bizarre battle. On one side, there was only one, the black Crystallized Mecha, while on the other side, there were dozens of Silver Mechas. Moreover, as the battle progressed, more and more Silver Mechas came to participate in the war.

These Silver Mechas were like a pack of wolves, ferocious and cold-blooded. Before, they acted separately, wiping out the weaker sheep—the Apocalypse starships everywhere. But now, they were besieging a fierce tiger!

Every second, Silver Mechas fell, and more Silver Mechas filled their vacancies. But even so, the fierce tiger remained standing.

Lin Lei was not a guy to be used as a target. As soon as he found that the enemies were increasing, he rushed among the Silver Mechas to fight them in close combat. His speed was simply too fast, and his combat skills had reached the peak. This was far from what these Dark Remnants, who only knew one move of Will binding and were a bit more sensitive than ordinary people, could resist.

“Damn it! Everyone scatter! Are you pigs? Concentrating together lets him break you through!” a guy who looked like a leader shouted loudly.

The reasoning was obvious, and everyone knew to scatter, but while dodging the attacks of the black Mecha, they unknowingly moved closer to each other. Then, what greeted them were cold lines cutting through like the wind. There were even cases where two or three Mechas were blown up at the same time, and there were also unlucky guys who were accidentally killed by their companions.

Various situations caused the number of casualties among the Silver Mechas to rise continuously. In the end, the Mechas in the sky even appeared sparse.

A full fifteen minutes of slaughter and ultra-high-intensity calculation made Lin Lei, who had been maintaining Combat Element Condensation, feel a severe headache. He even felt warm liquid flowing out of his nose.

It was blood! With his incredibly powerful constitution, the capillaries on his nasal mucosa could not withstand the high blood pressure brought by the heart pumping blood intensely to the brain, and they ruptured directly.

However, his Combat Element Condensation skill also underwent an evolution that was almost qualitative in nature. The countless phantoms in the sky were gone, or perhaps Lin Lei’s calculation accuracy had improved qualitatively, automatically fading out and eliminating those nearly impossible phantoms.

In Lin Lei’s eyes, only the 126 Silver Mechas in the surrounding sky and their nearly clear future movement trajectories remained.

At this moment, a clear understanding rose in Lin Lei’s heart, and his Will became stronger and more condensed.

The Apocalypse starships were freed and began to concentrate on cleaning up those irrational monsters on the ground. They could not manage the battle continuing in the sky and could only do what was within their power.

The slaughter of the fierce tiger continued, and the support from the Star Alliance also arrived. Twenty Crystallized Mecha Warriors and a warrior wearing Armor of Light appeared out of thin air above Rumba City.

“Captain, there is our warrior below!” a Star Alliance warrior shouted.

“Attack! Completely wipe out these silver bugs.” The captain wearing Armor of Light took the lead in firing the two positioning energy guns in his hands. Nearly transparent energy spurted out, and they were actually energy lines with the function of locking onto Mechas.

This kind of attack was hard to dodge. Even if the Silver Mechas had a keen sense of crisis, it was useless. For a time, Silver Mechas were blown up one after another.

The Watcher Warriors behind this captain also started their own attacks. Everyone had their own way of attacking. Some looked quite weird, but they were all very effective.

However, the Will binding of the Dark Remnants might be useless against Lin Lei, but it had a huge effect on these warriors who came to support.

The captain in the sky suddenly felt a blackness in front of his eyes after blowing up four Silver Mechas. The symptoms were just like Lin Lei’s back then. Subsequently, a series of attack warnings came from his Mecha, and the energy of the outer Protective Force Field was crazily decreasing, showing how sharp the opponent’s attack was.

This situation happened to more than just the captain. The Star Alliance warriors who came to support all made operational mistakes to varying degrees. Caught off guard, they were all hit by several energy rays.

Twenty supporting Watcher Warrior Mechas were actually blown up two in the first round of counterattack by the Silver Mechas! This shocked the captain, who had just recovered from his daze.

Of course, these Silver Mechas also paid a huge price. They relaxed their binding and interference on the fierce tiger beside them, and instantly, Lin Lei, who was able to stretch his limbs, shot down thirty Silver Mechas. Coupled with the nearly forty Mechas shot down by the Star Alliance warriors earlier, there were now fewer than sixty Silver Mechas left in the air.

These remaining Silver Mechas seemed to have the idea of fighting to the death. They ignored Lin Lei and just focused on dealing with the Watcher Warriors who came to support. Before they were all wiped out, they actually dragged down three unlucky Watcher Warriors to die with them.

When the last Silver Mecha was shot down, a stream of information suddenly exploded in Lin Lei’s mind.

Host comprehended skill: “Steel Will; Combat Element Condensation (Advanced Stage)! Host Level 3 Strengthening permission has reached the maximum value, Level 3 Strengthening reserve is 78%. It is recommended to perform the reserve immediately and proceed with Level 3 Strengthening!”

Lin Lei was overjoyed. The Level 3 Strengthening permission was finally full, and he had also comprehended a skill. As for the Level 3 reserve, he just needed to go to the Star Alliance to exchange for Strengthening Original Liquid. It was very simple. As long as he returned to the Star Alliance, Lin Lei could perform Level 3 Strengthening!

In this battle, Lin Lei gained more than just that. His powerful combat capability won the real recognition of the Watcher Warriors, and he truly gained the respect and status a powerful warrior deserved in the Star Alliance!

This was a real shock to the Layite People and was of great benefit to the Earth Civilization.
