From cannon fodder to sweeping across thousands of stars.

Chapter 715 Your Majesty! Lend It to Me!
Amber watched Qilin Jindoshi disappear in the smoke, and after confirming through the detection module of the "biological exoskeleton" that the young structural engineer had successfully blended into the crowd during the chaos, she breathed a sigh of relief.

At least now the other party will not be killed by stray bullets from the pursuers because of following me, thus triggering the time paradox problem.
Based on the series of events that happened tonight, Amber has basically figured out the logic of the entire time loop. He believes that as long as he gets through tonight, there will be no other changes in Qilin Jindoshi's life trajectory.

What he had to do next was to focus all the imperial guards' attention on himself and create the illusion that the invaders were still inside the Grand Palace.

In addition, Amber had previously tampered with some important information through the information exchange terminal, which basically cleared Qilin Jindoshi's suspicion and prevented the Imperial Guards from suspecting this young man.

And no matter what, the other party was just a powerless young man. Even if someone really found something wrong, it would be hard for people to believe that this ordinary person invaded the Grand Palace and ran back and forth in the underground facilities.

Oh, and by the way, he also knocked out the Archbishop and two Level 5 Psychics.
So Amber believed that as long as she could buy enough time for Qilin Jindoshi to return to a safe area, then this time-travel journey should be a perfect closed loop.

After all, I am still alive and well, which means that all my decisions and actions so far should be on the right track.
But having said that, Amber's current situation is not so easy and happy.

Since Amber, as a time traveler, cannot use any psychic powers in the timeline of the new calendar year 82, he actually doesn't dare to fight against the Grand Palace's guards at this moment - especially when the predecessor of HCP, a humanoid mechanical unit that looks a little bulky and like a running refrigerator, has appeared in the pursuit team.

As we all know, high-level psychics are indeed able to "dismantle mechas with bare hands", but the prerequisite is to use psychic power, a force that is sufficient to affect the real world.

And now that Amber is unable to use her psychic powers, her physical strength alone is no match for steel.

Psychic Psychic. The emphasis actually lies on the two words "psychic".

If you can't use psionic powers, it's like a max-level hero who can't use QWER. At best, he can only be considered a 'super soldier'.

So Amber did not intend to confront the pursuers head-on, but decided to "test" the armed off-road capabilities of these Grand Palace Guards.
So he started playing hide-and-seek with a group of imperial guards in the Grand Palace, and the biological exoskeleton with the 'speed mode' activated allowed him to leave the imperial guards behind him in a distant place.

But despite this, the distance between the two sides was constantly shortening after a large number of mobile units joined the encirclement.

After all, this is the heart of the Star Dragon Empire, and in the early days of the country, a large number of troops were deployed around the Grand Palace just in case. With more and more support, especially more and more drone tracking, the Imperial Guards also successfully began to compress Amber's activity space.

"Why are there so many of them? Can the Imperial Guards react so quickly?"

Amber ran wildly while constantly turning his head to observe the pursuers behind him. The chaos he just created did achieve its purpose, and Qilin Jindoshi had escaped safely, but the trouble that followed was far beyond his expectations.

Behind him, the heavy footsteps of the humanoid 'freezer' were getting closer and closer. Due to the limitations of technology and materials, humanoid mechanical units of this era were generally made very heavy, but the designers still found a way to give these 'fat guys' weighing more than 150 tons the ability to short-distance charge, so that they could be used in close combat on the battlefield.

At the same time, the "absolute firepower" pursued by the humanoid mechanical units in this era also made Amber extremely wary of their weapons and she did not dare to slow down at all.

Amber could still hear the unified communication commands in the communication channel after hacking into the Imperial Guards command channel. This was another help for him to avoid the Imperial Guards' pursuit and interception.

"The target is trapped in the North Palace corridor!"

"All units assemble at the North Palace!"

"'Holy Spirit' armored units will flank us!"

Seeing that the encirclement of the Imperial Guards was getting smaller and smaller, Amber could only rush into a nearby palace and quickly leaned against a magnificent column, taking a deep breath while checking her condition.

He could actually continue running at this time, but the biological exoskeleton on his body consumed energy at a rate beyond Amber's expectations due to long-term high-intensity operation, so he had to adjust his plan temporarily.

"We can only travel back to the year 592 of the new calendar and look for an opportunity. The Grand Palace over there is probably under martial law. After all, the noise made underground is much louder than here."

As Amber thought about it, she raised her wrist and tried to operate the watch to return to the original timeline to the year 592 of the new calendar. Then she would turn around and rush back to the west wing wall in one breath, and then rush out through the gap opened on the timeline of the year 82 of the new calendar.

But at the critical moment, the tactical time shuttle device MK1 malfunctioned. A dazzling red light flashed on the dial, and a line of warning text popped up:
"Warning, the original timeline anchor data is wrong, trying to repair it"

"We're done for!" Amber's eyes widened, disbelief written all over her face. "Salih, your damn craftsmanship is unreliable!"

He tapped his watch a few times anxiously, trying to force a restart, but the warning continued to flash.

Outside the palace gate, the rumbling footsteps of the Imperial Guards and the Holy Spirit Armor were getting closer and closer.

With a loud bang, the heavy gate of the palace was forcibly opened by the "Holy Spirit" armor. At this time, the imperial guards had no time to protect the buildings in the Grand Palace. After the gate was opened, they rushed in like a tide with weapons in hand.

At the front were two humanoid armored units, which were called the 'Holy Spirit' armors in the communication channel - and were also the 'grandfather' of HCP. After the pilots activated the 'charge', their bulky bodies approached Amber at an astonishing speed.

"Target found! Start attacking."

Amber, who had monitored the communication channel of the Imperial Guards, did not hesitate any more. She raised her hand and threw out the remaining smart grenades looted from the Imperial Guards. After drawing a perfect arc in the air, they accurately covered the front, back, left and right of the two "Holy Spirits".

"Boom boom boom boom!"

The sound of the explosion was amplified several times in the enclosed space. The decorations on the surrounding walls and the glass dome were shattered one after another, and smoke and dust filled the air for a while.

However, Amber did not stay to see the effect, but immediately turned around and ran towards the interior of the palace. He knew that this small explosion was just scratching the surface for these two big iron lumps, and at most it could buy him a few more seconds.

"Has it not been repaired yet? If it doesn't get better, I'll die here! Saleh, if I can go back safely this time, I will definitely make you look like eighteen different things to relieve my hatred!"

Amber complained in a low voice while running, but then she heard a familiar buzzing sound behind her - it was the sound of the electromagnetic Vulcan cannon on the shoulder of "Holy Spirit". Hearing this sound, Amber didn't think twice and rolled sideways into the side hall next to her.

"Zizzsssssssssss!"

The electromagnetic Vulcan cannon began to unleash its firepower in the next second. The steel needles, accelerated to 9 times the speed of sound, passed by the place where Amber had just stood with a sound like a cloth-tearing machine. The magnificent palace walls and floor tiles were instantly torn apart, and debris flew everywhere.

Amber rolled into the side hall and quickly got up. He knew that the exoskeleton provided by Ellenita might be able to withstand one or two steel needles at 9 times the speed of sound, but it definitely could not withstand the steel rain output by the electromagnetic Vulcan cannon, so he could only try his best to escape like "Jerry".

The side hall he was in at the moment was supposed to be a reception room according to regulations. It had gorgeous chandeliers, exquisite murals, and a bunch of antiques whose value Amber couldn't tell.

Normally, this place might be a place where the imperial nobles would mingle and mingle, but now, it is about to be transformed into a "battle-damaged style" by Amber and the Imperial Guards.
Amber's eyes quickly locked onto a huge statue in the center of the room - it was a statue of the young Dramman Lion, the founding emperor of the Star Dragon Empire and the 'Star Dragon Pilot' who escaped from the Forerunner Laboratory.

Looking at this statue that was five or six meters tall, Amber suddenly felt that this founding emperor was quite showy. He even placed a statue of himself in the reception room for people to admire.

"I hope your majesty won't mind if I borrow it."

Amber's lips suddenly curled up into a funny smile, and at the same time activated the power mode of the biological exoskeleton.

When the first imperial guard rushed into the side hall under the cover of others, he saw Amber had already grasped the base of the statue with both hands. The whole person was wrapped in a power-mode exoskeleton, looking like a terrifying muscle man.

"Fire! Fire now! Don't let him destroy the statue of your majesty!"

The commander of the Imperial Guards, who saw this scene through the sensors on his soldiers, suddenly shouted hysterically.

But it was too late.

Amber roared, and like Lu Zhishen pulling up a weeping willow, he pulled the entire statue off the base, and then threw the statue weighing dozens of tons at the imperial guards pouring in from the door like a javelin.

"spread!"

With a weight of dozens of tons and the potential energy provided by Amber, the statue of Delaman Lion crashed into the ranks of the Imperial Guards with a devastating force. Those Imperial Guards wearing ordinary power armor were swept away like bowling pins.

The 'Holy Spirit' armor following behind the Imperial Guards soldier couldn't care less at this moment, because there were more Imperial Guards colleagues behind him, so after seeing the attacking statue, the pilot almost subconsciously threw a heavy punch.

"boom!"

There was another earth-shaking roar, and in the collision of power, the statue of 'Dragon Great Ancestor' Delaman Leon flew out obliquely from the dome of the destroyed palace.
