The Legendary Mechanic - Chapter 100

Chapter 100


Han Xiao turned around and started to fall back . He repeatedly fired Hayme bullets at Luo in an attempt to lure her closer .

Luo raised her hands and started pushing to release an energy shield in front of her body . The bullets were blocked by the shield, and as they collided with the shield, there were beams of white light .

Superhumans of the 'Fortified Type' possessed the innate ability to counter the powers of a sniper . However, the poisonous gases emitted by the Hayme bullets were depleting Luo's HP . Furthermore, the impact from the collisions onto the energy shield also impacted Luo's body and decreased her health . However, the impact was relatively low after a reduction of 95% .

Luo could sense the fury building up in her body . The killer in her was overflowing like water from a fountain .

After Han Xiao fired the thirteenth shot, Luo moved closer toward him . The shots fired along the way managed to reduce Luo's HP by 100 points .

If the superhumans did not possess the special defensive powers, they would have been very brittle to the attacks . The force that Luo possessed granted her the ability to both attack and defend . However, when challenging hardy magnetically-controlled retractable armor, Luo's body would be wrecked from the battle .

Once they started fighting, Luo realized the weakness of her physical body .

Han Xiao suddenly drew out his retractable machete . He held the blade in his right hand and wielded the mechanical arm in his left hand . He was unafraid of fighting Luo head-on . Luo focused on using all her strength to smash Han Xiao's head; however, she realized that Han Xiao was clad in a think metallic armor .

At that instant, Han Xiao's retractable armor extended to up to his head, protecting his face and skull . Han Xiao moved his head back slightly, and with the help of the armor, he managed to withstand the shock from Luo's strike . Han Xiao used his machete and mechanical arm to continuously penetrate the energy shield of Luo . The battle was fierce, and white sparks were emitted with each contact made .

Pan Kuang, who was Level 40, had problems defeating Han Xiao in close-range combat; therefore, Luo's close combat powers were not much of a concern for Han Xiao .

Instead, the abilities she possessed as a 'Fortified Type' superhuman were greater threats to Han Xiao . Luo was able strike suddenly at the target from almost all angles, and therefore, her attacks often disrupted the flow of Han Xiao's attack .

"Force push!"

Han Xiao could feel an invisible impact to his knees .

Luo made use of the opportunity to pull backward and created more space . She could feel tightness in her chest, as if her lungs were being scorched . The high-intensity combat had taken its toll on her body . Her stamina was running low . Superhuman abilities often required the use of huge amounts of energy . In order to replenish her energy, Luo exhausted her stamina . She was deeply fatigued and looked at Han Xiao in disbelief and shock .

How on earth is this sniper so powerful? He can fight better than pugilists!

Tu tu tu!

The last few remnants of Rose Militant finally were finally approaching Han Xiao . They immediately concentrated all their firepower on him . To retaliate, Han Xiao fired his Berserk Eagles wildly, and the militants bled uncontrollably as they collapsed to the ground .

Su Li was the only one that managed to dodge Han Xiao's attacks . She was nimble and swift . She had the swag of a pugilist . She was wearing a pair of special gloves . There were a couple of circuits on the gloves, and the gloves emitted blue light . Han Xiao sensed impending danger .

Mechanical pugilist!

Su Li was approaching at high speed . Her hand pushed toward Han Xiao . It seemed like her push was weak and flimsy, but Han Xiao focused his attention and managed to recognize the gloves Su Li was wearing . The level of threat of Su Li increased, and Han Xiao quickly rotated his body to dodge Su Li's attack . It was unwise to fight Su Li head-on . Han Xiao decided to use the firepower of his pistols to suppress Su Li . However, Luo came toward and managed to repel the bullets with her energy shield .

The three were engaged in an intense battle . The pair of gloves that Su Li was wearing managed to suppress Han Xiao's power . Han Xiao was at a loss how to counter them . The two ladies realized that and made use of the opportunity to gain the upper hand in the battle . The situation gradually turned disadvantageous for Han Xiao .

If I don't make some sacrifices, it will be almost impossible for me to kill both of them .

With a look of determination of his face, Han Xiao approached Su Li suddenly and pressed his body had on her gloves . The sudden collision shocked Su Li . The gloves were touching Han Xiao's armor . An uncontrollable current was flowing through the scorching hot armor!



The endurance of the armor depleted exponentially . It reduced by almost 100 points . In fact, it was the first time the endurance of the armor had faced such a huge reduction!

Han Xiao felt a burn to his chest . The high temperature exceeded the threshold of the armor, and the heat scorched his body . Han Xiao had no time to look at the new messages that were flashing on the interface . He employed the wind-slicing slash and stabbed the machete hard into Su Li chest . An eye for an eye!

Su Li's eyes expanded in astonishment . Han Xiao pressed the Berserk Eagles to her forehead and started firing hysterically . A Mechanic without any form of armor was very vulnerable .

Boom boom boom!

"Kill the enemy!" Luo yelled in anger and attacked Han Xiao back while he was busy taking of Su Li .

There was a sharp pain in Han Xiao's spine . He could feel his back shattering . Han Xiao endured the pain and glided forward . He turned around and fired the last of the remaining bullets . Han Xiao focused his attention on Luo's legs .

Luo used too much of her stamina in her ambush on Han Xiao . She forced her last bit of energy, but she no longer had the energy maintain the energy shield that protected her from the bullets . A bullet penetrated her knee .

There was a change in the Luo's expressions . She understood the fact that she was facing a sniper, and the reduction in her mobility would lead to fatal consequences . In her state of panic, she wanted to use all her energy and deliver one final blow to Han Xiao .

She was attempting to paralyze Han Xiao's movement by blowing up his legs!

Once Han Xiao succeeded in his attacks, he quickly pulled away from the two of them . As the energy shield collapsed, it created an explosion that resulted in a huge crater at his original position!

Luo's heart sank . Her legs went limp, and now she really was reduced to sitting duck for Han Xiao's attacks . Han Xiao fired his shots from afar, and all she could to was forcefully repel the bullets . Her energy was on the verge of depleting completely, and desperation filled her heart .



Sh*t! I'm done!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Han Xiao, who had retreated quite some distance, fired his rifle on a stable platform and expended all of Luo's energy . Finally, a bullet pierced through her head . She collapsed with fury and unwillingness in her eyes .

Han Xiao heaved a sigh of relief . He could finally relax his senses . He did not have time whine about the pain from his burns . He immediately moved toward Su Li's body and retrieved the pair of black gloves form her hands .

You have gained two [Thermo-electrical Incisor Gloves] .

——————————————————————

The functioning of the gloves was based the theory of [Basic Thermodynamics], which Han Xiao had not yet mastered . There was a 'micro electricity to heat transformer' embedded within the gloves . The power source of the gloves was a high voltage battery since the gloves needed a huge amount of electricity to be powered . The gloves had immense power and was able to deal multiplied damage to metals .



Han Xiao held onto the gloves for his own use in the future . Speaking of that, Su Li was his first enemy from the mechanic class . It was also the first time he had revealed his gear to his mechanic counterparts .

Mechanical Pugilists made use of one type or a few types of close-combat machinery . They were able to add special effects and abilities to their machines . From the fighting style of Su Li, Han Xiao could infer that she was a mechanical pugilist of a lower level that relied solely on the performance of her equipment .

Some mechanical pugilists also possessed weapons that had special abilities themselves . Once they met the prerequisites, they were able to activate the use of such weapons . Out of the four machine blueprints that Old Man Lu had created, one of the blueprints created a machine that had innate abilities .

With the mission finally complete, it was time to return and collect his rewards .

The image of Felonia suddenly flashed in Han Xiao's mind, and he decided to take a closer look at Felonia before returning . Han Xiao switched off the EMP interference machine . He did a rough check of the broken components of his vehicle and estimated that the repairs would take him fifteen minutes . He started the repair job immediately .

There was a bunch of wanderers near Felonia just now . I wonder how they're doing, Han Xiao thought to himself .

…

Half an hour ago…

The entrance to Felonia was a crack in the cliff . The pilgrims scaled the cliff and managed to reach the crack . It was pitch dark in the crack, but it seemed like the crack had a passageway that lead somewhere .

A young pilgrim switched on his torch and shined the light into the alley . The scene before their eyes shocked all of them . Their mouths collapsed in disbelief, and all of them were dumbfounded .

"This… this is…"
