Machine War: Starting from Gundam OO

Chapter 1742 Lower your proud head

In an uninhabited archipelago area in the Pacific Ocean, the brand new [Phoenix Flug (Flying)] and Ophis Fengze's body, with the help of a group of B-level elites, have just destroyed a group of advance troops of the Temple of Slaughter, including a [Knight].

Covered in emerald green crystals, the damaged body has been restored to its original state. The new [Phoenix Flug (Flying)] has not changed much from the previous one, except that the outer armor has become more like the ancient general's armor, and there is an additional Suzaku Blade on the waist. As for why it is not a Black Snake Knife, it is because the body of the Black Snake Knife is the Black Snake of the King Wu Machine. Only the King Wu State has the Black Snake Knife, but don't underestimate the Suzaku Blade. Compared with the Black Snake Knife's infinite extension and ability to swallow the world, the Suzaku Blade is more in line with the ability of [Phoenix Flug (Flying)] itself, focusing on sharpness and Suzaku's flame ability.

The wings have also changed. Compared with the previous metallic feel, they now have a more biological feel. The feathers are more realistic and gorgeous, and can also be used as remote-controlled weapons like tail feathers.

Orpheus Fengze's machine was also dressed in the heavy armor of the Wuwang machine, which made its already top-notch defense even better. At the same time, the machine also possessed the Wuquewang's super regeneration ability, so even if it was assimilation regeneration, the consumption would be less.

In addition, the biggest change is the huge black snake cannon on the back of the body. The original body had no long-range attack capability. In addition to the standard energy rifle, only the original shield sword had a little long-range attack capability. The shield sword is the main weapon of this body and its biggest feature. The shield sword can be changed into any melee weapon at will, just like the two-handed sledgehammer used in the previous battle with Wu Que Wang, it can also be changed into a spear for throwing.

So Orpheus Fengze's body is a specialized machine for close combat defense, and now... the appearance of the Black Snake Cannon has brought a huge boost to Orpheus Fengze's body. It can not only serve as a strong shield for close combat, but also provide ultra-long-range fire support. Even the shield sword in his hand can be transformed into the form of a black snake knife, which has the characteristics of infinite extension and swallowing the world.

For Rita Bernal and Orpheus Vonze, the improvement was undoubtedly huge, but this battle was still brutal. Only half of the B-level elites who were still alive were from the time of the attack. The remaining half had already sacrificed. Even Rita Bernal and Orpheus Vonze were in very weak conditions. The regeneration just now had used up their last bit of strength. Now they were slumped in the seats in the cockpit, gasping for breath, unable to drive the machine at all. The control of the machine was handed over to the King Sparrow Machine and the King Martial Machine, as well as the will of the machine itself.

"How is King Sparrow? Can we still... deal with it easily?" The weak Rita Bernal asked the King Sparrow machine. This was the first mission after the King Sparrow machine merged with [Phoenix Flug (Flying)], and the first time it served as the main attacker against [Knight]. The King Sparrow machine was proud, and it said from the beginning that any evil was just an ant, and it would be easy with it.

"...I was wrong." This time, the King Sparrow lowered its proud head and sincerely admitted its mistake. The initial contempt led to a conflict in the control of [Phoenix Flug (Flying)], revealing a flaw, which allowed [Knight] to seize the opportunity and severely damage [Phoenix Flug (Flying)]. If it weren't for the timely protection of Orpheus Vonze, it would not be just a simple damage.

It was not a big deal for the body to be severely damaged, as it could be restored to its original state immediately through assimilation and regeneration, but this also consumed a lot of Rita Bernal's physical strength.

As the battle progressed, the King Sparrow became more and more shocked, thinking back to the evil spirits they had dealt with over the past thousands of years, even the native governor-level characters were not as good as a single toe of the [Knight]. The difference in strength was like heaven and earth. To put it bluntly, if they had encountered an evil spirit of this level, all the [Four Gods] would have suffered casualties together.

Not to mention, [Knights] are only cadres of the Temple of Slaughter, and they are not rare cadres at that. Not counting the [Knights] that have appeared in other worlds, there have been 26 [Knights] in the world of Mobile Suit Gundam OG alone, and the frequency of their appearance is increasing.

Not only the [Knights], but also the leader-level creatures of races such as the [Body-Eating Snake], Festum, Dimensional Beasts, and Zagos are also very scary.

Even if all the super robots were united in hatred of the enemy, they would not be able to defeat such a hostile force. And the King Sparrow Machine... his pride was hit, and he also realized that in front of the Promise Legion, he had nothing to be proud of except his age.

On the other side, the Wuwangji appears to be much better than the Quewangji, but as a super robot that has protected the human world for thousands of years, it certainly has a proud side. Although it doesn't say it, it has a contemptuous attitude in its heart, but it is just better at concealing it than the Quewangji and doesn't show it as much.

However, in terms of shock and attention, it is no less than that of the King of Birds machine.

"Have you always been fighting against opponents like this?" Wu Wangji asked Orpheus Fengze.

"Not really." Orpheus Fengze shook his head. "The opponents at the beginning were also ordinary humans. It was just a war among humans. But there were also alien races coming. The races under the command of the Temple of Slaughter occasionally invaded the world. The first duel with the Knights was in the world of Fafner in the Sky, which is the world of Soushi and Ikki. That world was really terrible. Human civilization was almost completely destroyed. It was all thanks to Ikki and Soushi that they kept taking advantage. That time, we also truly realized the power of the Temple of Slaughter."

“It’s really hard.”

"In fact, we are all very relaxed." Orpheus Fengze shook his head again. "When I joined the Promise Corps, the framework of the Corps had already been built. The first machines we got were all very excellent, and various training subjects had also been perfected. Although Rita joined earlier than me, she was still a child at that time and was not allowed to go to the battlefield. Everyone took good care of her. When she officially joined the Corps, the Corps also went through the most difficult period. When Your Highness first arrived at the Promise Fortress, there was nothing. The current Corps and the fortress were all built by Your Highness from scratch."

"Hmm..." Wu Wangji could imagine the difficulties involved, creating something from nothing, rushing to various worlds to fight, and then stabilizing these worlds after the war as a solid rear base, and developing all the way to today's scale. How much effort, how much blood and sweat were needed?

"Orpheus, prepare to return."

"Understood. Any new tasks?"

"Yes, a direct order from Promise. An abnormal gravity reaction has occurred at coordinates I25 in South America. However, judging by the energy level, there are no Knights, so it should be relatively easy."

"Understood, return immediately."
