“What! How did these two Azure Dragon Armors get here!”
Over there, the Commander of the renegade army surrounding the research institute heard the report of something happening behind him, and turned his head to see Harrison Clark’s small Azure Dragon Armor darting back and forth like a descended celestial being among the tall, old-fashioned mecha array.
Although the Azure Dragon Armor was small, its material hardness far exceeded that of the old-fashioned armor, and its power system was even more superior.
Nimbler, faster, more agile, and more powerful!
This is the essential difference in performance between the Azure Dragon Armor and the old-fashioned mecha.
But even so, without equipping conventional weapons on the Azure Dragon Armor, the old-fashioned armor still had a chance to overwhelm the former due to sheer numbers.
The Commander knew that Azure Dragon Armors deployed for regular missions within Earth would only carry training-grade weapons, and he even saw through the pilot’s mentality, knowing that they would try to land in the stadium to avoid harming civilians.
He set up a tight ambush early on, believing that with the ability of those half-baked operators in the new recruit training base around Penrith, it would be impossible to escape unscathed.
Even if all were instructors, it would still make no difference.
That way, they could snatch two complete Azure Dragon Armors before they left.
In space, their technicians would then further crack the core technology, thus enhancing their own technological level.
Despite all the well-laid plans, the situation now was completely unfathomable.
“What the hell is going on? What’s happening at the stadium? Is Team 7 eating shit? Go! All of you, go! Teams 1, 2, 3, and 4! All of you, surround these two Azure Dragon Armors!”
The Commander cursed loudly and issued the order.
The next moment, the Commander received the answer.
He learned why Team 7 had no achievements.
The small figure of the Azure Dragon Armor controlled by Harrison Clark dashed nimbly within the iron forest formed by hundreds of tall, old-fashioned armors.
His movements were lightning fast.
Although he wasn’t large, every swing of his alloy sword would cause severe damage to the old-fashioned armor before him.
He perfectly utilized the numerous jet nozzles that provided motive power around the Azure Dragon Armor, leaping effortlessly to heights of 7 or 8 meters.
When his opponent saw him floating in the air, thinking that the opportunity had come, abandoning defense and trying to swipe him in two with a giant sword, he would dodge skillfully in the air, making extreme changes in direction.
With current technology, one could indeed capture his movements, but the neuro-response speed of the old-fashioned armor operators was not fast enough to respond at all!
“Boss, we can’t hold him! What do we do? What do we do!”
The captain of Team 1 cried out in despair over the communicator as his teammates kept falling.
Team 2’s captain shouted as well: “He’s too fast! I never imagined anyone could pilot an Azure Dragon Armor that fast. No…”
The captain of Team 2’s words were cut short as his cockpit was pierced by Harrison Clark’s sword.
He died.
Killing was, in fact, something that Harrison Clark was experiencing for the first time today.
During the battle in the stadium, he wasn’t used to it at first, and he even spared a few people out of kindness, nearly causing Daniel Thompson to lose his life on the spot.
The shot that hit Daniel Thompson’s leg armor was fired by a renegade soldier who had been saved by Harrison Clark and had crawled back to the turret.
Such situations made Harrison Clark quickly realize a truth.
Being merciful to the enemy in a battlefield is cruelty to one’s own people.
So, despite the compassion in his heart, Harrison Clark’s actions were worthy of a war machine.
On the other side, the high-ranking renegades watching the scene from their large combat vehicles were equally shocked by Harrison Clark’s god of death-like demeanor.
“When did an ordinary new recruit base start turning out ace-level Azure Dragon Armor pilots like this?”
The resource recycling company executive was extremely puzzled.
A nearby technician showed the analysis data, “Well, bosses, this guy is probably not just an ordinary ace.”
“What do you mean?”
“According to our calculations, he’s been maintaining a 20G acceleration rate for a long time, thus enabling him to easily cut through our armor formations with just his training equipment. He’s the ace among aces! We’re really unlucky this time.”
“No wonder, such incredible continuous directional changes, his physical endurance is beyond imagination.”
“If we don’t think of something, our armors will be destroyed by him alone at this rate.”
Just then, a young man at the rear of the crowd disdainfully said, “What ace, he’s just relying on that serum, not even his own ability. Let me have a go at him.’”‘Needham, don’t act impulsively, you are our last trump card. If you lose too, we…”
The young man said discontentedly, “So, we just watch our people die at his hands? Are you expecting me to break the defense of the research institute alone after you’re all dead?”
Having said that, the young man turned and left the command room, heading to the rear.
“This…”
In the center of the crowd in the command room, a middle-aged man with glasses said, “Let Needham go. Although this man is powerful, Needham’s strength is even greater. The performance of the Azure Dragon Armor is better, but it has significant drawbacks. Its endurance is not as good as our modified type. Moreover, this man has been maintaining full load for a long time, and his energy is about to run out.”
Unconsciously, with Harrison Clark leading the way and Daniel Thompson following, the two broke through layers of encirclements and entered the research institute gate.
The defense forces of the research institute were already at the end of their strength, and the morale was on the verge of collapse. The appearance of two Azure Dragon Armors greatly boosted their spirits.
“Lion, you go inside and rest for a while. I’ll stay at the door. They won’t get in.”
Daniel Thompson was silent for a few seconds before saying, “All right, I will listen to you. But don’t be careless; we were in their armor pile earlier, so they didn’t dare to use remote heavy weapons. Now that we’re inside the gate, there’s nothing holding them back. If you get targeted, remember to jump out in time.”
Harrison Clark nodded, and at the same time slightly turned his body to quickly and discreetly change the nuclear fusion energy pack under his chest armor.
Daniel Thompson exclaimed, “How are you changing your backup energy source already! It’s been less than an hour since we started using it!”
Harrison Clark shrugged, “The previous test data was wrong; the three-hour energy consumption only considered the usage state of the regular operator, which is at 20G, and the energy consumption is quite high.”
“Oh?”
Harrison Clark looked back again, “But, don’t worry, there are only about fifty of them left. This backup energy source is more than enough!”
Having said that, Harrison Clark stepped out of the door, holding his alloy knife, pointing at the front, “Everyone, retreat. You are no match for me, and I don’t want to kill anymore.”
He had half a sentence left unsaid.
Although they will all die sooner or later, they could still live for more than half a year.
They should go and enjoy the remaining life, not come here to die unnecessarily.
However, these people did not retreat, only making a puzzled move.
In the tightly packed array of old-fashioned armors, the formation was scattered.
A huge armor, about 20 meters tall, slowly walked out.
Unlike other similar silver-white old-fashioned armors, this giant had a natural, deep black metallic luster all over its body.
It had significantly thicker armor and a larger torso than ordinary old-fashioned armors.
Daniel Thompson exclaimed in the back, “What model is this? I’ve never seen it, and it’s not in the database! Be careful!”
Harrison Clark raised an eyebrow, “Something new.”
“I’ll be your opponent next. Military dog, are you mentally prepared?”
A deep voice came from inside the machine across the room.
Harrison Clark, wearing the Azure Dragon Armor, shrugged, “You’ve got lines, and you’re quite a tough character. Tell me your name.”
“You’re not worthy of knowing my name. I admit that you’re stronger than most Azure Dragon Armor soldiers, and perhaps you’re a genius. But you, who rely on drugs, you’re not real geniuses! I, Needham Brown, am different from you. Not only am I a genius, but I also have faith!”
With a loud roar, the giant armor charged like a mammoth elephant with heavy but fierce steps.
Harrison Clark confronted him, “Needham? It’s a good name. My name is Harrison Clark; let me see how much of a genius you are.”
Needham Brown was shocked, “How do you know my name!”
Harrison Clark:
“Fool! You’ve been duped!” Needham’s armor suddenly swung its right arm, revealing a giant sword approximately four meters wide and fifteen meters long from behind. With the swing of the armor, the sword extended another fifteen meters forward, reaching an astonishing thirty meters!
The giant sword swung horizontally from top to bottom, heading straight toward the direction where Harrison Clark was standing.
To further accelerate the sword swing, the huge armor began to spin around at an impressive speed on the spot.
Harrison Clark immediately read the instantaneous acceleration of the opponent’s spin from the data monitor on his helmet.
15G!
The guy across, driving a giant armor with far worse control than the Azure Dragon Armor, had accelerated to 15G!
Moreover, from what he said, it seemed that he hadn’t even used the serum!
Just looking at their physique, it seemed the man across was even more of a genius than himself!
