Life Dungeon Game

He leaped out of the mecha and instantly jumped into the rain.

His body landed on the mud, rolled over, and plunged headfirst into the Merck family command center, which was surrounded by people.

Cerberus as a light

The masterpiece of mass-produced mecha, it was the main reference for Vian when he developed the Adam I. For this reason, he bought three Cerberus mechas and disassembled them into parts by hand.

Then he realized the Cerberus mech's fatal weakness.

In order to reduce weight and save costs as much as possible, Evis Space Systems made drastic cost-cutting measures on the two plasma cannons of Cerberus.

The necessary gun barrel protection and heat insulation materials are basically absent, and even the control core inside the gun barrel that controls the operation of the entire plasma gun is not adequately protected.

The plasma cannon is a cutting-edge weapon that requires massive computing power and precise adjustments.

This means that if any external force disrupts the stability of the cannon barrel, or even damages the control core inside the barrel, these two powerful plasma cannons are at risk of exploding.

With this flaw, the Cerberus mech is essentially a time bomb that can move around anywhere.

However, Vian discovered that Ives Space Systems had developed a software program specifically designed to control the use of plasma cannons.

Under normal use, the probability of a barrel explosion is very small, and even if the gun barrel is actually damaged, there will be no surviving victims seeking compensation from Evis Space Systems.

Therefore, there are very few reported cases of Cerberus accidents, and even if there are, Evis Space Systems quickly suppresses them.

Vian once calculated that, based on the shipment volume of the Cerberus mechs, the cost of these 'crisis public relations' caused by design problems was far lower than the cost that Ives Space Systems 'saved' on the mechs.

In other words, Evis Space Systems actually made money from this, and quite a lot of it.

Vian also published his research findings at the time, but they were quickly suppressed.

Although the Nolanca Group is powerful, it is still far behind the Federation's number one arms dealer, so Vian could only order the Nolanca mercenary group not to use the Cerberus mech.

These studies also helped Heo, allowing him to eliminate the mech squad as quickly as possible.

However, although he was confident that he could quickly deal with the mech squad, he still needed to lure the squad away.

This was done for two reasons: first, to guard against any contingency plans left by Reid; and second, because the plasma cannon would cause significant damage when it exploded, and if it exploded in a crowd, it would definitely create chaos, giving Kaja a chance to escape in the confusion.

In the blink of an eye, He Ao rushed into the deepest part of the command center, but he did not go directly to the off-road vehicle. Instead, he went directly to an armored vehicle that was not far from the off-road vehicle.

From the perspective of hyper memory, He Ao could easily figure out all the visible and hidden sentries around him.

The off-road vehicle appeared heavily fortified, but it was actually loosely guarded on the outside and loosely guarded on the inside; it was clearly a 'bait' deliberately left by Kaja.

On the contrary, there were many sentries secretly protecting the armored vehicle not far away.

When Heo walked out of the armored vehicle and casually opened the door, he saw Kaja lounging comfortably in the front seat, remarking that 'everything was as expected.'

He Ao deactivated his stealth and casually replied, "Is that so?"

The moment he finished speaking, a huge explosion rang out behind him.

The surging flames created a thick fog in the rain, a vast...

The heatwave swept over the raindrops, ruffling his hair.

The plasma cannon exploded.

Immediately following were two more loud explosions, as the plasma cannons detonated the high-energy batteries of the two Cerberus mechs.

Kaja tensed up, turned around, and looked at Heo, who had opened the car door and was looking at him.

Thick fog rolled in from behind, reaching the back of this 'uninvited guest'.

Beneath the pitch-black clouds, it was as if he had just emerged from the thick fog of an abyss, bringing with him a terrifying sense of despair.

"who are you?"

A young man next to Kaja then realized Heo's presence, raised his gun, aimed it at Heo, and pulled the trigger.

The next second, a bright red flower bloomed in his heart, and warm red 'raindrops' fell on Kaja's cheek beside him.

He pulled the dagger from the young man's heart, letting the crimson liquid flow down the blade. He calmly gazed at Kaja. "Want to talk?"

"Nothing to talk about."

Kaja glanced at the corpse lying on the ground, waved to signal the other tribesmen who had drawn their guns not to move, and then looked at Heo, saying, "Don't underestimate me."

With that, he leaped into the air.

He crashed through the car door behind him and rolled into the rain.

······

He Ao immediately flew after him.

Kaja looked at Hoo through the rain, then reached into his clothes, grabbed something, and suddenly threw it away.

He Ao only saw a few bright green seeds fall to the ground.

These seeds sank into the mud in the ground, and under the irrigation of rainwater, they instantly took root and sprouted, growing into several lush green vines in the blink of an eye.

The vines, dripping with sticky sap, intertwined and attacked Heo.

what is this?

The ability to manipulate plants?

He Ao swung his sword and severed the attacking vines.

These vines were as thick as half a fist and extremely resilient; even when he activated his Super Memory Slash, it took him some effort to break them.

The severed vine fell to the ground, twisted a few times, seemingly trying to take root in the soil again, but ultimately failed, and then quickly withered, turning into a dry vine that looked like withered yellow straw.

As He Ao severed these vines with his sword, their roots quickly withered.

By the time He broke free from the encirclement of these vines, they had all withered and died.

They only survive for a total of three or four seconds.

It looks like something that can be used only once.

Heo didn't look back, but sped up to catch up with Kaja ahead.

Kaja looked at the approaching Heo with surprise.

He seemed surprised that Heo had dealt with the vines so quickly.

He raised his hand, and a sudden gust of wind howled up, blowing against He Ao's face, trying to hinder He Ao's steps.

The Merck family warriors around him finally reacted and raised their guns to attack Heo.

Kaja didn't look back, but kept running with his head down.

His physical abilities are not strong, and judging from his capabilities, he is not a superhuman who excels in combat.

Heo watched Kaja's footsteps and realized that he was rushing towards the surrounding forest.

This 'command center' itself was built next to a forest; beyond the armored vehicles surrounding it was the forest.

He Ao activated stealth and 'disappeared' from everyone's sight.

Actually, if we start escaping from the moment Kaja crashed into the car door...

The chase lasted only a few seconds.

When Kaja set up this command center, he thought the distance was short enough and he would have enough time to enter the forest.

But at this moment, he felt that the distance was so long, as if he had lived the rest of his life.

Finally, he reached the edge of the forest, and a look of ecstasy spread across his face.

This was his trump card, his only reliance. He raised his hands high, "Great Sky and Master of Nature, I beseech you..."

A pair of hands covered his mouth from behind, and a sharp sword tip pierced through his chest, stained with bright red blood that shimmered with a white light.

He looked up at the forest in front of him.

The instant Kaja shouted those words, he felt a terrifying gaze cast upon him from the depths of the forest. In that instant, Heo felt that what lay before him was not a lush forest, but a maddened, twisted entrance to hell.

This sense of oppression was slightly weaker than that of a god, but stronger than any A-level being He Ao had ever encountered before.

Kaja struggled to speak, but Heo covered his mouth tightly. His vitality was stronger than that of a typical C-rank, and he could still struggle even after the short sword pierced the energy gathering point.

Under Heo's violent suppression, Kaja's struggles gradually subsided.

As Kaja's life faded, the oppressive gaze from the depths of the forest seemed to lose its bearings and slowly vanish.

It seems that the other party was not actually deep in the forest, but rather descended through the forest as a medium in some kind of mystical sense.

This is probably why Kaja insisted on coming to the forest.

There must be some restrictions on this kind of ceremony, otherwise Kaja could have simply built the command center in the forest.

'The master of the sky and nature'...

I wonder what kind of person he is.

Finally, Kaja's body fell completely still.

Heo dragged him out from the edge of the forest.

The howling wind stopped, and the torrential raindrops gradually shrank.

After losing its instigator, the rain began to return to its natural course.

However, He Ao had only taken a few steps when he suddenly stopped, and then instantly jumped to the side with Kaja's body in his arms.

The whistling wind brushed past his ears.

A heavy armored vehicle weighing tens of tons flew over the spot where he had just been standing, crashing into the deep forest and knocking down a grove of trees.

If he had acted any later, he would have been the one hit by that armored vehicle.

He Ao turned around and looked behind him.

A three-meter-tall, bright red 'little giant' climbed onto the armored vehicle closest to Heo, grabbed a Merck family warrior driving the vehicle, and tore him to shreds.

The little giant's body bore intense burn marks, with new flesh constantly emerging and pushing off the charred dead skin.

At the same time, four burly men, each over two meters tall and covered in red, jumped out from behind the little giant and stood on the armored vehicle, staring at He Ao.

Their eyes were bloodshot as they stared at He Ao like crazed wild beasts.

These people look somewhat like D-level 'thugs', but they seem to be even less rational than thugs, yet their combat power seems to be much stronger.

That intense sense of oppression even made He Ao feel somewhat...
