Super Mechanic: God of Superpowers!

Rumble!

Smoke and dust billowed in the center of the battlefield as several figures engaged in fierce combat. Destructive energy shocks continuously tore through the ground, and the flames of the explosions resembled blooming flowers of death.

The battle reached a stalemate, and Shana's brows furrowed even more deeply.

Bright, who was previously destroyed by Ye Xiu's team, was actually an agent of the intelligence agency under the War Domain, who was assigned by the Krent high command to infiltrate the Colton star system.

Shana's faction has close ties with Krent, and she happened to be in the vicinity after completing the mission to capture Kernid.

After Bright was attacked, the distress signal sent by the intelligence station happened to fall into her hands.

Unfortunately, Shana arrived too late, but unexpectedly captured the alien's activity.

She decided to change her plans and head straight for her target, since resolving the problem in Colton was much easier than making a special trip to the Garden system.

What was initially thought to be a sure kill has now turned into a protracted battle.

Bright's intelligence contained fatal flaws; information on Jayne and Gadley was completely blank.

At that time, the Lightning Gundam quickly defeated the fleet, and these two had no chance to make a move. Now, they have become the variables that are disrupting the situation.

"It's time to wrap this up!"

Shana suddenly pressed her hands to the ground, unleashing her full power.

Amidst the violent tremors, hundreds of giant craters suddenly collapsed within a radius of tens of kilometers.

Nearly a hundred giant pythons, formed from metallic particles, burst forth from the ground. Each one was about ten stories thick and their length was so great that it seemed to stretch endlessly.

The entire land was instantly covered with honeycomb-like holes!

Amidst the earth-shaking tremors, a swarm of colossal metal pythons, blotting out the sky, rose into the air and crashed down upon the three.

"He can actually manipulate the planet's magnetic field to control underground metals," Ye Xiu's eyes flickered slightly.

Ordinary metal manipulators need readily available metal to fight, but this one directly draws on the resources of an entire planet.

This is a true mobile natural disaster!

Gadley hastily retreated, only to be strangled and swallowed by two giant pythons.

The molten metal instantly condensed into a gigantic sphere hundreds of meters tall, which crashed to the ground with a deafening roar as it compressed inside.

"Old Ga!" Jayne roared, slamming his fists into the ground, the shockwaves exploding in a ring.

hum.

The ground stress was instantly triggered, and the earthquake intensity soared.

Half of the giant metal pythons instantly disintegrated into a rain of iron sand, and the plains further away were torn open into bottomless rifts, as if the entire planet was convulsing in agony.

The metal sphere trapping Gadley shattered, and the burly man, covered in soot, leaped free. Ye Xiu couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

The nickname "Seaquake" is well-deserved; those who can reach the A-level are indeed quite skilled.

After all, potential ratings can't be faked; you can't get this certification unless your ability is at least A level.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Shana and Jayne went all out, and the battlefield stretched from the plains to the valleys, shattering the terrain within a radius of hundreds of miles.

The giant metal python writhed wildly on the ground, and the dust and smoke from the mountain collapse blotted out the sun. Ye Xiu and Gadley constantly moved around the perimeter to restrain it.

Although the battle shook the earth, Shana, floating in mid-air, was completely unaffected by the earthquake. Her blonde hair danced wildly in the energy turbulence, and she completely controlled the rhythm of the battle.

She glanced at Ye Xiu and sneered.

This so-called alien legend is far too exaggerated. Compared to Jayne, it's like a complete novice. Jayne, on the other hand, is more deserving of the bounty on the wanted poster.

"If it weren't for these two troublemakers," Shana narrowed her eyes. As long as they took care of Jayne and the guy with the gun, the alien would be a piece of cake.

However, she suddenly changed her mind. Jayne's skills were definitely good enough to put him on the wanted list, so she might as well pack him up and take him with her.

Just as she was making her calculations, Jayne's protective shield suddenly flashed red.

Shana smirked, and a dozen long metal dragons instantly coiled into an iron cocoon, wrapping Jayne into an airtight metal ball.

No matter how fiercely it was bombarded from inside, more and more giant metal pythons kept piling up on top of it, managing to compress the sphere to the size of a truck.

"Done!" Shana snapped her fingers and turned to the other side of the battlefield, locking onto Ye Xiu through the billowing dust: "Now it's your turn."

Unexpectedly, Ye Xiu suddenly stopped in his tracks, grinning to reveal his white teeth: "That's right, it's my turn to perform."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a dense shriek suddenly echoed through the sky.

Shana looked up abruptly, and fifty "meteors" trailing lightning were hurtling towards her.

That was a lightning beam!

Each beam of light is seven or eight meters in diameter!

The hastily deployed magnetic energy shield had barely taken shape when a world-ending thunderstorm poured down.

boom!!

The earth-shattering explosion swept across the battlefield in an instant. Gadley was directly blown away by the shockwave, and the metal ball binding Jayne was embedded in the mountain ten miles away like a cannonball.

The mushroom cloud that shot into the sky illuminated the surrounding area for miles around, and the giant metal python melted into molten iron in the high temperature, blasting a crater the size of a football field into the ground.

Ye Xiu, propelled by the thrusters, charged into the sea of ​​fire, not forgetting to turn back and shout, "You really think I can't do anything to you? I'll teach you a lesson today!"

The explosive data pulsed on her retina as Shana frantically reinforced her magnetic energy barrier, managing to withstand most of the damage.

Her armor's defensive stats and personal resistances were already outstanding, and although the simultaneous barrage of railguns was impressive, the dispersed firepower significantly reduced its actual lethality.

However, the rain of light disrupted the rhythm of the battlefield, and the situation where the enemy was in control was instantly reversed.

Ye Xiu gave his opponent no chance to adjust and rushed into the dust.

The protective force field, half-buried in the ground, glowed with a ghostly blue light, resembling an inverted giant metal bowl. He was about to deliver the finishing blow when suddenly...

Boom!

A sudden surge of metal erupted from the protective shield, with sand-sized alloy particles forming a tornado.

It turns out that while Shana was enduring the orbital bombardment, she had secretly buried the metal fragments left over from the battlefield underground, just waiting for her prey to walk into her trap.

The woman's protective mask had long since been blown off, bloodstains slid down her brow bone, and her eyes flashed with a ferocious, beast-like light.

Unfortunately, she ran into a cheater.

Just as the alloy storm was about to engulf its target, Ye Xiu suddenly became ethereal and disappeared.

Shana's hair stood on end, and the protective shield behind her rippled without warning as a large hand clad in pale bone armor gripped the back of her head.

Racial superpower: "Higher Dimensional Leap"!

"This is impossible!" Before she could even turn her head, her face was shoved hard into the scorched earth.

A gray mist-like energy flow seeped from the gaps in the armor, converging wildly along the arm guards.

Void Pulse burst mode activated!

Boom boom boom!

Each beam of light was more intense than the last, at the cost of the energy bar visibly decreasing.

As Ye Xiu fired, he activated the subcutaneous injector. The resources he had accumulated over the past two years, from dismantling hundreds of interstellar pirate hideouts, were now coming in handy.

The special gene-enhancing agent surged through the blood vessels, precisely triggering a nerve paralysis effect with each strike.

Shana completely crashed during the eighth bombardment, collapsing into a limp mess.

Click!

The sound of bones cracking was exceptionally clear amidst the thunder.

Ye Xiu, expressionless, grabbed the female superhuman by the neck, lunged forward, twisted his waist, and threw her in a textbook-perfect throwing motion.

The moment the sonic boom cloud exploded, the body had already transformed into a humanoid cannonball and disappeared into the distance.

Whoosh.

Shana shot out like a cannonball, instantly escaping the mushroom cloud's reach, her figure receding further and further away, almost becoming a small black dot on the horizon.

However, this offensive is not over yet!

Just as she was about to regain consciousness from her dizziness, dozens of stars lit up the sky once again.

The second round of orbital bombardment is here!

boom.

The second mushroom cloud surged and soared into the sky.

Gadley, who had just rescued Jayne from the metal sphere, exchanged a glance with his companion, their Adam's apples bobbing in unison.

This is outright torture and murder.

When the last energy beam dissipated, the system still did not display a kill notification, proving that this near-A+ level superhuman's resilience was indeed astonishing.

Just as Ye Xiu was about to press his advantage, Shana suddenly broke through the smoke and soared into the sky, with all the giant metal snakes converging into a towering pillar that followed closely behind.

"Trying to escape?"

His eyes suddenly turned cold, and he relentlessly pursued them.

Two figures pierced through the atmosphere and shot straight into space.

"Damn it." Shana glanced at the pursuers behind her, her gums almost bleeding from biting them.

The burst combo she had just used had dealt her the most severe blows while she was stunned.

His left arm hung limply, its bones shattered into fragments; his left leg was twisted and deformed.

Half of his body looked like it had been run over by a road roller, and even breathing was difficult due to his broken ribs.

Since being promoted to A-level, she has never suffered such a severe blow.

While shocked by the opponent's sudden burst of combat power, they were even more enraged by the backlash from being mere ants.

"If Eileen were here." For the first time, she regretted acting alone, and the support of her mage partner seemed so precious at this moment.

Just as she was about to activate her superpower by forcibly raising her still functional right arm, a photon curved cannon suddenly shot from the ground, accurately blasting her away.

On the ground, Gadley was setting up a railgun that was as tall as a three-story building.

For an A-level gunsmith, calculating planetary rotation parameters is just a basic skill.

This crucial shot interrupted Shana's charge, allowing the Blacklight Lurker to escape the control area.

The latest novel is first published here!

Suspended in the vacuum, Shana stared intently at her pursuers, her reason gradually overpowering her anger.

When severely injured, the success rate of suppressing three catastrophic targets simultaneously has fallen below the critical threshold.

Once the thought of retreat takes hold, it grows wildly. It's better to regroup than to gamble with your life.

Even if the opponent is on guard, as long as the organization's intelligence is not exposed, we can still crush them and win next time with all our forces.

The giant metal serpent suddenly turned and lunged at Ye Xiu, who seized the opportunity to slip into the suddenly appearing single-soldier shuttle.

As the engine emitted blue flames, the escape pod instantly broke through the third cosmic velocity.

The moment the giant metal python coiled around Ye Xiu, Shana's spaceship had already transformed into a streak of light and disappeared into the clouds.

"You think I'm prey?" Ye Xiu chuckled. "You'll see what happens later."

He glanced back and saw his two comrades, both covered in dust. Red-haired Jayne's chest armor was mostly shattered, and Gadley's robes were smoking.

"Did you take care of that woman?" Jay asked, panting heavily.

"No, but it will be soon," Ye Xiu said.

Upon hearing this, the two of them immediately slumped their shoulders.

Their newly formed fleet was completely wiped out in this raid. Now, let alone continuing to be interstellar mercenaries, they probably can't even afford to repair their mechs.

Seeing this, Ye Xiu tentatively suggested, "How about joining my legion as my second-in-command? The benefits are excellent."

"I still prefer to work alone," Jayne interrupted, scratching his chest hair.

Gadley shook his head and declined, but before leaving, he accepted the communication key that Ye Xiu handed him.

"Okay." Ye Xiu didn't insist.

Recruiting a Calamity-level powerhouse is far more difficult than recruiting a B-level powerhouse; every A-level superhuman possesses the ability to stand alone.

The stronger a person is, the less willing they are to be subordinate to others. Jayne and Gadley preferred to build their own power from scratch rather than serve others, which was exactly what Ye Xiu had expected.

Even if a super A-level powerhouse personally came forward to recruit them, it might not be possible to persuade these top-tier, calamity-level beings from the Star Sea to join the fight.

They are like stars making their debut, always carrying a unique reserve when choosing partners.

"By the way, Lao Ye, there's something I'd like to ask you for help with." Jay scratched his beard, his thick chest hair trembling slightly with the movement.

"Just say it." Ye Xiu tried hard to keep his gaze from drifting toward the other person's hairy chest.

"Our ships were all destroyed in the battle, so..."

Ye Xiu patted the other man on the shoulder knowingly: "We're brothers who've been through thick and thin together, so take my ship to the nearest spaceport."

"That's great!" Jayne grinned, casually brushing his carefully groomed chest hair.

His race prided themselves on their thick hair, and the tuft of hair on his chest, styled as smooth as silk, resembled the iconic beard of an ancient general.

Ye Xiu's temple throbbed: "Please put your clothes on first. Don't let the spaceship cabin be filled with hair."

Shana's spaceship streaked across the sea of ​​stars like a shooting star.

Inside the cabin, she injected the healing agent into her arm.

With a slight cracking sound as her bones repaired, and finally able to move normally, she immediately connected to her companion's communication channel.

The figure of Ellett appeared on the holographic screen.

This mage partner always liked to cover half of his face with a cloak, and at this moment he was playing with the crystal ball in his hand.

"Got the target? Wait, why does your face look like you've been trampled by a star beast?"

"Mission failed," Shana stated succinctly.

"Hahahaha! You actually got outmaneuvered by some unorthodox guy?" Ellett showed no sympathy whatsoever, and instead laughed so hard he slapped his thigh.

"Believe it or not, I'll use your staff as firewood next time!" Shana grimly gritted her teeth.

As the laughter subsided, Ellett said seriously, "This time we alerted them, so the entire group must go into silence."

Seeing that the other party did not refute, he twirled the crystal ball and added, "The target is now on guard, so we should deal with the other names first."

Return to base immediately to heal. Make sure to eliminate all tracking signals.

"I don't need you to teach me." Shana cut off the communication and activated stealth mode, the spaceship leaving a stealthy trail in the starry sky.

Unbeknownst to her, a pair of enormous, eerie eyes were watching everything from the shadows.

After bidding farewell to Jayne and Gadley of the Future Zero Agency, Ye Xiu rushed back to the Garden System without stopping, and the outline of the Red Gate Star main base gradually became clear outside the porthole.

As the Blacklight Lurker pierced the atmosphere, many mercenaries looked up in disbelief.

This highly recognizable private spaceship means that their elusive captain has returned from his interstellar journey.

As soon as the spaceship glided into the private hangar, Ye Xiu headed straight for the core area of ​​the base along the exclusive passage.

After passing through several airtight gates, he found his way to Fording's rooftop training ground.

Sure enough, the figure sitting cross-legged in mid-air was chanting an ethereal song, with visible ripples of psychic energy rising and falling with the melody.

As a direct disciple of Morning Star, Fordring's use of telekinesis always carries a musical quality.

The melody flowing at this moment seems to have a life of its own, circulating on the rooftop.

Not only does it bathe the entire base in healing energy, but it also automatically grants every player who stops here the "Mind Resonance" buff.

This is much more energetic than ordinary background music; it's practically a walking power-up base station.

Ye Xiu leaned against the railing and listened to the entire chorus, his gaze sweeping over the old-fashioned music box hanging from Fording's waist.

Ever since this kid overtook Morning Star two years ago, he could have gone to a much bigger stage, but he just stayed with the Alien Legion as a mascot.

According to Fording himself, this place is perfect for retirement, as you can go on interstellar adventures with mercenaries and come back anytime to pet cats and bask in the sun.

"Is the alien captain so free today?" Before the melody of the ballad had faded, Fording had already turned around with a smile.

He was used to Ye Xiu's occasional "luck-absorbing" behavior, although he still didn't understand when he had become a human lucky charm.

"Let's check out our prized possession."

As Ye Xiu spoke, he reached out and ruffled the other man's long, silver-gray hair, then turned and left amidst Fording's bewildered expression. There was another special listener in the corner of the rooftop.

As Arosia closed her eyes to savor the memory, she raised her arm, and a band of light formed from condensed energy intimately wrapped around Ye Xiu's wrist. With the help of millions of players who had traversed the universe over the past two years, the puzzle of her memories was about to be completed.

While the mystical warmth still lingered on his fingertips, Ye Xiu quickly opened the panel to settle the task.

With the notification that the first link of the [Prey] quest chain was completed, five shimmering golden skill cards unfolded before my eyes:

1. Strength Perception (Passive): Affinity with Extraordinary Abilities +12%

2. Magnetic Storm Vortex: Creates a chaotic force field in the traction area's magnetic field (Intelligence assessment).

3. Star Trail Ejection: A shot that amplifies the kinetic energy of an object (single-shot damage 210-742).

4. Magnetic Barrier: Infinite shield value (damage taken per second capped at 22000)

5. Qualitative Change in Strength (Passive): Reconstruction of Strength Bonus Coefficient

"As expected, being blessed by the lucky one makes things stable." Ye Xiu glanced at the improved skills suitable for the Mechanic class and casually selected the most practical Magnetic Field Perception.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Fording practicing his singing to the starry sky again, and he touched the music box key he had swiped in his pocket.

Once this awkward master and apprentice finally confess their feelings, I'll be able to unlock the ultimate Easter egg left by Morning Star. (End of Chapter)
