Chapter 18: Manus [Seeking to Read, Collecting]

"Asako Mori, find a way to put at least one of the drones released by Kurtulo on the body of the poisonous woman, or inside the body. Then stay away from dangerous wanderers. Luke Field said to Asako Mori and the Dangerous Wanderer through PPDC's combat communication platform as he tapped on the keyboard with both hands.

"Understood."

Although it is not clear what Luke Field is going to do, Asako Mori is trained to obey orders. So she doesn't ask why she did it at such a moment, but doesn't hesitate to carry it out.

"How are we going to get close?"

Raleigh Beckett in the messaging platform has a tingling scalp. Even if the dangerous wanderer has been upgraded by Mori Mazi and Cai Tiantong and others, when facing a strong opponent such as a poisonous woman, the means available to him are inevitably stretched. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that Asako Mori dragged the poisonous woman many times at the last moment, the dangerous wanderer he drove would have been cruelly divided by the three sword tails behind the poisonous woman's tail and would have taken the lead in withdrawing from the battlefield.

Threatened by the poisonous woman's three dexterous, elusive, lethal and terrifying tails, Raleigh Beckett couldn't wait to get as far away from it as possible. Even without those three threatening sword tails, the poisonous woman's huge body and helpless skin defense layer were enough to make people feel desperate.

The Dangerous Wanderer has experimented with various attacks, but still hasn't found the Poison Woman's weakness, and its attacks, whether physical or specially made warhead weapons against the Kaiju Beast, don't hurt to hit the Poison Woman. In particular, the special warhead weapon is specially used to drill through the skin of the chrysanthemum beast and explode in its body, forming a killer weapon with maximum damage, but it can't even penetrate the skin layer on the poisonous woman's body.

The Poison Woman's skin is thick and very elastic, and ordinary physical attacks hit her like they hit cotton, and she is extremely tough. The penetrating special weapon hit its skin, and it could only sink in, but it could never break through.

So until now, the only thing in the hands of the dangerous wanderer that can hurt the poisonous woman, which makes it a little jealous, is the thermal chain sword that has been assembled by Asako Mori and upgraded by Luke Field. However, the attack damage that the Thermal Chain Sword can inflict can hardly be said to be fatal in the face of a poisonous woman who is nearly two hundred meters tall and has an amazing defense.

Except for a small part of the injuries on the poisonous woman's body, all of them were caused by Kurturo driven by Asako Mori.

That's literally an energy turret!

Raleigh Beckett thought of Kurturo's complicated energy attack methods, and finally understood what Mori Asako's words [Kurtulo has six energy cores] meant.

"Just leave it to me." Asako Mori gritted her teeth.

……

PPDC General Base.

The words in the communication channel reached the ears of everyone present. Steck Pantycoster turned his gaze to Luke Field, who was waiting on the sidelines.

"Dr. Luke, does Kurtulo have any secret weapons?" Steck Pantycoster couldn't help but ask. He had already seen in the previous battle that the first fifth-level Open Chrysanthemum Beast Poisonous Woman was the most powerful enemy faced by humans in the history of the appearance of the Open Chrysanthemum Beast! It has almost no shortcomings, not even its large size, and it is exceptionally dexterous in combat.

In the previous twenty minutes of battle, the poisonous woman showed amazing speed and reflexes. Although as the only sixth-generation machine, Kurturo has already shown its strength in the battle with the poisonous woman, but with the speed it shows, if you want to break through the three sword tails of the poisonous woman and compete with her speed and reaction in close quarters, it is really dancing on the blade of death. Any failure to react and make a mistake may directly lead to the damage of Kurturlo, and in serious cases, he may directly withdraw from the battlefield.

Once Kurturlo, who is the main force in the fight against the poisonous woman, withdraws, Nastek Panticost can't imagine how the battle situation, which can barely be maintained now, will collapse in front of the liberated poisonous woman! And once the five main mecha hunters outside the base are damaged and retired, then the best result of the final plan in his heart will inevitably be the postponement of the indefinite deadline.

But will pioneer civilizations really give them time to reprepare?

Steck Pantycoster didn't dare to think about it.

"Do you know what its full name is?" Luke Field didn't answer Stek Panticost's words, but pointed to Kurtulo in the virtual projection screen and asked him rhetorically.

Steck Pantycoster, who was asked rhetorically, was a little stunned for a while.

Isn't it called Curturlo?

Steck Pantycoster, as well as Cai Tiantong and others who were listening to the conversation between the two around subconsciously thought.

"Its full name is Curturo Manus." Luke Field said.

"So what?" Steck Pantycoster frowned, a little puzzled by Luke Field's Riddler behavior.

"So, it comes in two forms. The heavily armored turret-type Kurturlo, and the dexterous Assassin-type Manus. ”

Luke Field's words fell, and the armor on his body suddenly exploded in the midst of the stunned gazes of everyone at the base. The previously slightly bloated fuselage has become much thinner and more delicate when it reappears in front of everyone's eyes. Two high-energy ion beam swords appeared with Kurtulo Manus's swinging arms, and they were tightly held in the palms of the two mechanical arms.

The machines that came off Curturlo's body were combined in the air to form two Cross Towers in the style of Stark Veronica, and the four tails were suspended in mid-air with tail flames.

"You can still transform?" Raleigh Beckett was taken aback when he saw this. In the area of mecha hunters, he is also considered a well-informed person, but it is the first time he has seen such a shape-shifting person as Curturo.

"Don't be surprised, it's just modular assembly." Luke Field looked at the eyes of everyone staring at him in unison, and spread his hands.

Although Luke Field said it easily, whether it is Steck Pantycoster and others who don't know much about technology, or people who understand technology, such as Cai Tiantong, they all understand that it is not easy to achieve the modular assembly of the Curturlo-like version that Luke Field said. This almost single-handedly reopened a new way of thinking and pathing for the manufacture of mecha hunters.

The Assassin Manus form brought about a super-high speed that even Asako Mori was surprised by. Closely connected with the mecha hunter, she can clearly feel that the entire mecha seems to have taken off the weight she has been carrying for a long time, light, agile and fast! Like a liberated wind. The Assassin Manus Form erupted with a sudden burst of speed that surprised even its pilot.

Asako Mori didn't even dare to drive this form of Manus with all her strength, because she felt that Manus at full speed was even beyond her mental synaesthesia control. According to the public, the eyes barely kept up, but the body didn't.

But it's enough.

Mori Asako's sudden outburst caught even the poisonous woman a little off guard, and the price of being caught off guard was that the two tails behind her were cut off by Manus, who was wielding two plasma beam swords behind her close range.

Break the defense!

Wounded!

This is the greatest trauma suffered by the poisonous woman since the battle.

It roared in anger, and the only intact tail of the sword stabbed Manus like a viper, but it moved fast, and Manus retreated faster than the tail of his sword.

The poisonous woman who had been hit in the air with a single blow turned around, and the huge, blue glowing mouth spewed out a blazing blue beam of light under the stunned and unbelieving gaze of everyone. The beam hit Manus directly in retreat.

Seeing this scene, Raleigh Beckett angrily drove the dangerous wanderer to sprint, trying to save Manus from the attack of the poisonous woman, or rather, save Asako Mori who was driving Manus. However, Luke Field's somewhat cold voice rang out in the comms: "Stand back, soldier! ”

"Asako Mori is fine, her vital signs are still there." Luke Field added.

Only then did the dangerous wanderer restrain his forward rushing figure, inserted the chain sword in his hand into the bottom of the sea, and stabilized his body.

At this moment, the dim and rainstorm sky suddenly brightened, and a huge pillar of light fell from the sky, smashing straight on the angry poisonous woman who was spitting out the beam, and the poisonous woman's huge body was instantly smashed down, and the beam of light in her mouth shot out from the bottom to the top with the smashed head's head, drawing a straight line in the sky and disappearing.

The poisonous woman's unprecedented screams resounded across the battlefield, its sturdy limbs struggling to support its huge body, but the huge pillar of light falling vertically from the sky suppressed him. In the next second, the huge pillar of light split into five, closely aligned together, and swirled to engulf the poisonous woman in the pillar of light.

This brilliant and bright white pillar of light made the eyes of almost everyone who was paying attention to this battlefield widen when they saw it. Some people on the island who had just hurried and didn't have time to enter the nearby shelter, or outside a temple made of the head of an open chrysanthemum beast, those who came to kneel down to open the chrysanthemum beast for various reasons, saw this scene like a miracle, and knelt down directly with their hands folded.

The five rotating pillars of light engulfed the figure of the poisonous woman and the screams together, and the ridged turtle and tailed rat on the other side of the battlefield saw the tragic situation of their boss and cries for help, and hurriedly abandoned their opponents, turned around, flicked their tails, and ran madly towards this side.

Especially the ridged turtle, while running, the carapace on the skull also opened, revealing the light-emitting body organ protected under the carapace, and the whole body of blue energy surged to the light-emitting organ of the head along the blood vessels of the body layer by layer, a huge energy was brewing, but just when it was about to explode, a flying thermal tomahawk accurately cut directly into the light-emitting organ of the brain.

Before the huge energy brewing in the luminous organ could completely burst out, it was directly detonated in the body of the leatherback turtle.

From a distance, I saw a giant beast running wild like an orangutan, its abrupt brain exploded into a cloud of blue light, and the huge body that rushed forward rolled out uncontrollably, smashing out patches of waves.

Cherno-Alpha, who threw out the deadly axe, cleared the seawater, walked up to the leather-backed turtle that was twitching and was about to die, and pulled out the thermal tomahawk from its head, and made up for the axe. Watching the leatherback turtle swallow completely.

The crazy weakening of the boss's vital signs, as well as the death of the good companion of the shield, the Ridgeback Turtle, made the tailed standing rat, whose wisdom is also not low, feel extremely dangerous, especially after scanning left and right, it has been blocked by two mecha hunters to rescue the boss, and there is a Ridgeback Turtle who has just slaughtered his partner, staring at his tomahawk mecha man, and it is a little numb for a while.

The shocking pillar of light lasted for about ten seconds before disappearing into the sky.

The battlefield was dark again, with only the lights turned on by the various Mech Hunters and the light released by Kurturo before the battle.

However, the pillar of light that only existed in this world for just ten seconds has been deeply engraved in the hearts of all who see it, and it can never be forgotten. Even the officials, who have been following the battlefield and satellite movements since the authorization, have fallen silent. But the soldiers who watched together on the sidelines had terrifying eyes.

The poisonous woman, who had endured the tragic ravages of the satellite rays for ten seconds, was no longer as strong and domineering as before, and although it was not dead, it was as if it had been smashed by a boulder, and it could barely stand. The entire huge body was slightly red, and the smell of cooked meat wafted around.

Being able to carry the satellite ray, a mass killer that is comparable to the ultimate weapon of mankind, without dying, is already worthy of its full armor and amazing vitality.

"It's a pity it's not an ion cannon." Luke Field looked at his masterpiece with some regret.

"Is that a laser weapon?" Steck Pantycoster stared at the vanishing pillar of light with a bit of a blankement, and he was also amazed by this domineering and magnificent attack weapon.

"That's a particle beam weapon, boss. Laser weapons are not so lethal, not to mention, there are too many factors that can affect their power. Cai Tiantong muttered back on the side.

"What about the ion cannon?" Steck Pantycoster clenched his fists, and he even felt the urge to give the pioneer world a blow with this kind of killing weapon.

"The ion cannon is a kind of particle weapon, but it is more lethal than other particle beam weapons, if it was really an ion cannon just now, I don't know if this planet will be finished, but we may be finished with those chrysanthemum beasts." Cai Tiantong was a little afraid.

on the battlefield.

The two cross towers that Kurtulo had split into locks, binding the dying poisonous woman to the seabed, and Asako Mori drove Manus to it and ended its life with the Plasma Beam Sword.

On the other side, the tailed rat, who was surrounded by three mecha macho men, failed to change his life, and died under the axe of Chernoalpha together with his companion Ridgeback Turtle.

Double Kill!

The crisis was completely resolved.

"I thought you were dead." Raleigh Beckett looked at Manus and said to Asako Mori in the communication channel.

"The Manus form has an energy shield module." Asako Mori explained briefly in the communication channel. Although this shape looks crispy, it is still highly protective. It's just that it's more energy-consuming, and it's not good for a protracted war.

……

Inside the PPDC base.

Steck Pantycoster breathed a sigh of relief, "Get them back and do the maintenance and repair as soon as possible!" Dr. Luke, how long will your job take? Steck looked at Luke Field, who was sitting next to him.

"One day is fine. I've already manufactured the coating and the spraying will be done in no time. If you are still not at ease, you can also use the corpses of these three chrysanthemum beasts. Luke Field replied that the dimensional energy could still allow him to stay here for as long as he could be almost at his limit, and if nothing else, he would be returning soon.

"Two days, two days at the latest! Execute the final plan. Steck Pantycoster heard this and gave the order.
