Brilliant, yet small.
Like countless fireflies dotting the sky, they added a touch of radiant color to this battlefield, which had just ceased fighting and was filled with poisonous fog.
But the more beautiful something is, the more dangerous it often becomes!
The tiny specks of light burst forth from the Demon Realm Gate, swirling in the sky for a moment, and as if suddenly finding their target, they plummeted rapidly!
Before long, these specks of light had adhered to the bodies of the surrounding Mechanical Warriors. The scarlet electronic eyes that had hung on the heads of the Mechanical Warriors flickered strangely. Lin Haifeng, who was controlling these Mechanical Warriors, felt his control was being interfered with. In the next second, he completely lost the ability to control all the Mechanical Warriors.
“It’s a trap; they were waiting for this move from you!”
Lin Haifeng bluntly pointed out the flaw in Fran's command, while Fran merely lowered his head in silence—at this point, any further explanation would be futile.
All that was left was to see just how powerful the demonic clan's move was and what countermeasures they could come up with.
“Inform the soul puppet legion and Qin Tian to be on alert; all the Mechanical Warriors on the battlefield have completely lost control. Then notify the Mechanical Warrior legion that hasn’t reached the battlefield yet to quickly move away from the main combat zone. I knew these things would be useless!”
At this moment, Lin Haifeng decisively took over Fran's position. While voicing his complaints, he issued commands, and in no time, the rear line quickly acted according to orders.
The Qin Tian legion covered the artillery units as they began to withdraw, and the soul puppet legion gradually distanced itself from the main battlefield—with the interference of the poisonous fog, they had no worries about the demonic clan taking advantage of the emptiness to burst out from the Demon Realm Gate.
The poisonous fog just activated by the demonic clan had indeed created a lot of convenience for Beijing.
In stark contrast to the busy rear, the main battlefield near the Demon Realm Gate was quiet.
Once the soul puppets withdrew, the Mechanical Warriors fell completely silent. They remained quietly in the battlefield, soaking in the poisonous fog, like hard stones.
It wasn't until the Mechanical Warrior that was first attacked by the specks of light suddenly trembled.
In the next moment, its steel shell rapidly melted away, turning into a pool of silvery molten iron in a short time.
This seemed to signal something as all the affected Mechanical Warriors dissolved and melted in the following moment. As the pools of molten iron grew, they began to intertwine with each other and then fused together.
Watching this scene, Fran was baffled, while Lin Haifeng's expression turned increasingly grim on the screen.
“This is troublesome...”
With a simple deduction, Lin Haifeng had already understood the purpose of these silver particles.
He did not elaborate further but turned to the three little ones, the one-eyed creature, and said, “This time, I'm afraid I’ll need your help.”
The implication was clear—Lin Haifeng believed that aside from the three little ones, the remaining methods would certainly not solve the troubles that might arise shortly.
Upon hearing this, the one-eyed creature immediately stood up. Taking advantage of the moment when Xing and Victor had not yet reacted, it vanished in a flash of light. Xing and Victor were momentarily taken aback, but then displayed looks of annoyance.
“Don’t worry, if I’m not mistaken, there’ll be plenty for you to do soon.”
Lin Haifeng's tone was calm; although there was frustration, he did not feel it was difficult.
The demonic clan certainly had many hidden cards, but Beijing did not lack in that regard either. He shifted his focus back to the main battlefield, noticing that all the Mechanical Warriors at the front line had completely vanished.
