Planet of Sand and Oasis of Iron

Chapter 242 241. Without some special skills, you really can’t get in

Allowing others to pull him away, Seifer immediately calmed down and switched to his backup form.

The Centaur, whose technology surpassed all currently known levels in every aspect, opened its eyes and stood up from the carrier board - turning around, it saw the armored vehicle that had just been barely repaired parked next to it.

"You didn't go back?!"

Tien waved her hand. "Haha, why go back? This is a close-up look at the giant machine used by the big companies to unite and destroy the transformation agency."

"If you don't watch such a wonderful battle up close, you might even die with regret."

What level of bloodthirsty spectator are you... Seifer shook his head helplessly and asked her to drive the car quickly and take the guys back, then he slung the spear around his waist.

The cruise mode was activated, and the Centaur-structured body immediately half-suspended on the sand, and the entire body rushed towards the battlefield in a sprinting posture.

During this time, Feldrich came over to ask about the performance of his missile. After hearing Seifer say "precise strike and extremely effective", his tone immediately became much more cheerful.

Even the fact that he called himself "Afu" was not a concern for the moment.

There were still three missiles, but Cypher would not use them for the time being. He concentrated on sprinting. It took him several minutes to switch to the standby body and head to the battlefield. In just this short period of time, the [Worm] completely appeared on the sand and no longer dived underneath.

——Without the armed cargo box, it seems that nothing can penetrate its own defense, so it only needs to eliminate the hostile forces on the ground.

With this judgment, the guys at the scene have changed from hunting to fleeing.

Various unmanned units kept flying out of the box in the fourth section to assist the [Worm] in its rampage. As soon as Seifer entered the scene, he saw a building chasing mercenaries all over the ground.

The huge, interlaced mouth that could crush hard minerals scraped across the already messy battlefield like a vacuum cleaner. Large quantities of debris and sand were sucked into its mouth and disappeared with a rumbling sound.

The corporate mercenaries fled frantically, while those around them fired in vain at the thick barrier - unfortunately, it was useless.

As soon as Seifer entered the battlefield, he was questioned by the commanding unit. He immediately replied that he was a member of the Red Crossbow. The other party then asked him what his combat purpose was.

"My er... my mecha is a little special. It's a melee-specific mecha, so can I join the battle?"

"can."

With permission, Cypher continued to charge into the land glowing red, heading straight towards the rumbling thing... It was very strange, like a knight holding a spear to challenge a moving skyscraper.

Whether the mecha was actually a knight or a vehicle was beyond question; strictly speaking, this body was Cypher's. This time, facing the massive [worm], he lost his previous nervousness.

How should I put it…was it because he'd grown in size? Or was it something else? Cypher wasn't sure. He sprinted forward, closing in on the opponent's massive form before leaping straight into the air.

His actions were somewhat confusing—what else could he do besides being knocked away by the Worm when he was so close to it?
Under everyone's gaze, this strange centaur-shaped machine burst out with powerful propulsion in mid-air, and after approaching directly, its four sturdy horse legs stepped directly on its outer armor.

What was strange was that, aside from the initial speed mismatch, where the mech's feet scraped a few long tracks on the outer armor, it then remained firmly planted on the train-like body. Anti-gravity has many uses, the most important of which is relative stillness with an object—the downside being that this mode reduces the mech's maximum output.

In layman's terms, the ability to move will be slightly reduced, and the distance and stability of rapid dodge will also be reduced. It is even possible to directly break away from the relatively static state and be thrown out when dodging quickly.

The [worm] never thought that there would be an organism on its body that could stand up. It immediately began to roll forward, and Seifer immediately spread out his four legs and started running wildly.

Step by step, circle by circle, Sefer advanced like a thread wound on a drum, finally stepping onto the broken fourth quarter.

The mercenaries had already figured out what he was up to. They immediately concentrated their firepower, attempting to actively draw the Worm's attention, but... that was underestimating the Worm's master controller.

It also underestimated Cypher's ability to move. The moment he reached the gap, Cypher used his own gravity to adjust the angle without hesitation. Although the perspective was a bit disgusting, it was nothing compared to the scene seen from the gap.

In the port of the fourth section, the interior of the [Worm] is not worm-like at all, but is filled with the beauty of compact machinery. Countless transmission devices are moving, transporting various weapons to designated locations and then firing them out!
After apparently losing over forty sections of its body, it also changed its logic, from throwing away everything after hitting it to recycling and reusing...

But this obviously involves the transformation of the overall structure, but it can adjust while fighting and continue to maintain firepower output... The transformation mechanism is terrifying!
The box in the distance that was twisting like a long snake on the ground and firing randomly was actually not a big threat. The main threat was only the dense swarms of drones that kept coming out.

Without thinking, Seifer turned off the synchronization and pushed the attack to the maximum, rushing into the complicated and chaotic box without hesitation, and then turned on the anti-gravity synchronization again.

The speed was so fast that the [Worm] could only send out internal alarms and could not even use its internal weapons.

The machine, which was still a bit large for its interior, picked up the spear at his waist and swung it, revealing the thermal sword inside. Seifer immediately held a sword in one hand and a shield in the other, swinging his sword at will to destroy the constantly running loading and transportation passages while moving deeper into the machine.

Honestly, I can't feel any 'mechanical beauty', but only the complex structure, complicated movements, and the roar of metal collision and operation...

Only dizziness remained, so Cypher pressed on. "Leica, I'm inside the Worm. This thing doesn't look... as dangerous as the outside."

"Inside?! You, you have to be careful, there might be dangerous traps inside."

Speaking of mechanisms... Saifu rushed from the fourth section to the connection point without stopping. He did not react at all to the "da da da da" attacks of the machine guns behind him. He simply raised his hand and slashed with a sword.

The thermal blade easily cut into the partition door, and with subsequent swings, it immediately broke a hole that allowed Cypher to easily enter - from here on, was the key part of this thing.

Section 3, Material Printer and Delivery Port.

The moment he rushed in, Seifer thought he had gone to the wrong place. Instead of entering a super shield machine that could move at high speed underground and devour people and bodies as if they were minerals, he entered a busy logistics center.

Countless pipes and lines transport various combat supplies and artillery shells to the rear carriages. Various lights and illuminations illuminate this area, temporarily isolating external noises.

The continuous roaring sound outside the wall and the various conveyor tracks in front of him that kept making noises due to gravity made him clearly realize that he was inside a [worm] shield machine.
