In the conference hall.
Lin Yi leaned forward, intertwining his fingers.
"If I destroy that Titan, or lure it away so it can’t get close, how much are you willing to pay ?"
"No infantry can defeat that monster!" One of the generals shouted, but everyone ignored him.
"Do you need high-tech armor? We have already started designing a special armor specifically for your race.
If you help us, we will fully commit to developing it, and once it’s done, we will give you two thousand sets of armor for free."
"Hmm... sounds good. But I also need so other things: books, old artifacts..."
The negotiation didn’t last long.
In fact, it barely counted as a negotiation.
Lin Yi just listed everything he needed and then set off to confront the Titan.
The creature was about six hours away from the fortress, and he didn’t want to waste any ti.
Lin Yi sped through a destroyed city at a speed of sixty kiloters per hour, asking along the way.
"Hubert, what do you think of that monster?"
"I think luring it away would be easier, but... do you really want to kill it?"
"Can you imagine how much reward we would get if we took it down? It’s full of valuable parts!"
"Boss, you’re still the sa! Hmm, I think we should begin with artillery attacks and then engage it up close."
"Let’s do it, build cover, just shoot, disappear, reappear, and shoot again..."
"So despicable, but cunning and safe!"
"What about the hostile aliens?"
"From the descriptions, it seems like they are riding sothing similar to ’Doomsday Warhorse’ that can transform into power armor. Its power isn’t particularly notable.
The weapons used by their infantry sound a lot like the AP-1 Type Weapons. In theory, our Level Four armor should withstand them.
But it’s best to have the Recovery Platform preheated, just in case."
"Got it, have the soldiers ready..."
After an hour of high-speed travel, Lin Yi finally reached the Titan’s location.
The thing was at least fifteen ters tall.
It had five strong legs, resembling scorpion legs but much sturdier, arms larger than train cars, a strong body, and a multitude of long-range weapons hidden within the frawork of this chanical monster.
The artilleryn chose a good shooting position on a small hill.
The ’human battle against cha Godzilla’ began!
"No hostile aliens detected, they might be hiding." A scout reported.
"What about those people the Titan was chasing before?"
"They vanished without a trace, but the Titan experienced a battle. It didn’t suffer significant damage."
"No matter, fire, n!"
"Yes, boss!" The artilleryn responded in unison.
Thanks to the Skill Reset Potion, there were now five Third-level gunners in the shelter.
Each bottle of this potion costs five thousand, but Lin Yi felt it was worth the expense.
He originally wanted six gunners but decided to leave one Skill Book for the lab to analyze.
Two shells whistled through the air, hitting the Titan while five thousand gold coins went up in smoke.
Two loud explosions shook the creature’s chest and left arm. It suddenly stopped, turning to face the gunners.
Yellow light points began to flicker on its chest and shoulders as the powerful energy cannon charged, and the creature opened fire.
In an instant, the small hill where Lin Yi and the artillery squad were just transported to was leveled.
The monster stood there for a few seconds, dazed for a mont, then continued forward.
Lin Yi and the soldiers watched the screen footage from within the shelter, breaking into a cold sweat.
"How does it react so fast?!"
"If we make a mistake, we’re dood..."
"What about close combat?" Solomon asked, "We could get close to it and use the Light Beam Blade to cut it apart."
"No, get Immanuel to contact the Aricans imdiately, buy three howitzers, and purchase weapons with longer range and greater power. We only have two hours!"
"Understood, boss!"
Lin Yi rode his "Dagger" aircraft, teleporting to Tilian Planet, hovering ten ters above the ground; everything below him had been destroyed.
He found another position.
Attacked again, and then disappeared.
The Titan imdiately attacked the place where the shell had been fired, but no one was there anymore.
This went on for half an hour.
The Titan’s condition beca very poor.
So of its weapons had been destroyed, but it remained extrely dangerous.
The hostile aliens still hadn’t shown up, but there were obvious signs that others were there.
Half an hour later, the Aricans sent three howitzers to Lille, and the cost Lin Yi paid for ergency airlifting was higher than the cost of purchasing the cannons themselves.
The other equipnt he requested hadn’t been shipped from the island yet, so these howitzers were requisitioned from the troops guarding Brussels.
Lin Yi decided to take a bold action, instructing the Earth Mages to dig a hole right beneath the Titan.
All the Earth Mages were gathered together.
It took a full five minutes.
But it was all worth it as the Titan walked straight into the trap set by the humans.
Predicting the route of this machine wasn’t difficult, as it was moving in a straight line and nothing around could stop it.
"Action!" Lin Yi ordered, while powering up the Anti-Gene Cannon, and five other soldiers activated the regular energy cannons.
Seven seconds later, they were teleported to Tilian Planet.
Lin Yi opened fire first.
A powerful energy beam hit the back of the giant beast, forcing it to pause for several seconds.
Although the ti was short, it was enough for the other five energy beams to hit the tallic monster.
Explosions sounded, and shrapnel flew everywhere, but Lin Yi didn’t pay any attention to these as he had already summoned sixty Earth Mages.
As soon as these mages appeared on the planet, they imdiately began to cast magic.
The severely damaged Titan, barely able to stand, turned around and supported itself with one hand, but the ground beneath its feet suddenly collapsed.
The massive machine crashed down!
But that was not its last surprise.
When the Titan hit the ground, it imdiately fell sixty ters underground, landing on a row of moving stone spikes.
These stone spikes couldn’t damage its shell but could easily tear into the parts of its body exposed by the energy cannon.
A stone serpent suddenly drilled out from underground, wrapping around the beast’s arm.
Then a second stone serpent appeared, followed by a third, a fourth...
All of these were Third Level Earth Mages, truly performing beyond expectations.
The tallic monster was trapped, unable to avoid attack after attack, while the soldiers fired another round of energy beams into the pit.
[You have killed a Titan Level mutant creature]
[Gained 433 Experience Points]
"Cease fire! That thing is already dead!"
"Why did I get so little Experience Points?!"
[This is the result of team collaboration, and this is the amount of Experience Points you received!]
"Heart of the World? You’re alive again!? But why am I the only one who got Experience Points?"
"Because you dealt the fatal blow."
"This is bullshit!"
"Those are the rules."
"Then change the rules."
[Submitting request to Heart of the World... Request approved, rules have been changed!]
[From now on, Experience Points gained from killing enemies on both planets will be shared among all participants!]
With the rule change...
"I just got so Experience Points, boss!"
" too!" the soldiers each shouted.
But Lin Yi couldn’t worry about them right now.
He jumped onto his "Dagger" aircraft, floated into the pit, and teleported the massive chanical remains back to the shelter.
Before recovering it, he had to extract its Energy Core and analyze it first.
He killed the monster, gained 8000 Experience Points, and a purple treasure box.
At least that could offset so of the costs...
He had used up 177 grenade shells, worth a total of 88,500 Gold Coins in magic ammunition.
"Boss! A large group of enemies is coming out of the ruins! They are invaders, and they are moving quickly!"
"Hahaha! I guess they were planning to ambush us in the ruins, they never expected us to take down the Titan, let’s build so defenses!"
Everyone got busy.
The Earth Mages quickly set up a small fortress, covering and securing it with steel plates.
The engineers also managed to build a few watchtowers and sniper positions.
"I see thirty enemies on motorcycles, a hundred on trucks, and several dium chas," the soldier responsible for tracking reported.
"Aren’t they afraid of us? Hmm, all the better, we’ll get so fantastic gear today!"
~~~~~~
The alien invaders’ side.
"Commander, the enemy is building a fortress with steel plates," reported the scout over the radio.
"A fortress?! May Alma take their souls!" the commander cursed.
Alma was a sentintal pig-shaped demon, fond of getting close to anyone, regardless of age or gender.
"They managed to take down the Titan in such a stupid way! Our whole plan is now ruined!"
"Should we retreat?"
"No, we must identify who they are, but if I’m not mistaken, they are Defenders.
We are in big trouble!
We can’t let them gain a foothold; we must hurry before they fortify their position, it seems we aren’t the only ones with Advanced scouts..."
The warriors, riding their "Doomsday Warhorses" and clad in "Doomsday Warrior" armor, raced towards the battlefield where the Titan was defeated.
They initially planned a wonderful ambush for these mysterious enemies, but before they could act, the Titan had already been taken down.
"I can confirm the Titan is gone, the fortress is likely built around its body.
There could be sothing very valuable inside, so they’ve decided to defend it at all costs."
"It might be an Energy Core, or perhaps a reward they couldn’t carry away. Hmm, whatever it is, it will soon be ours."
The commander chuckled, and the other soldiers in his squad laughed along.
They had been on this planet for so ti and had developed a strong interest in looting.
By killing the locals, they could obtain all sorts of useful items.
They couldn’t use the Tilian people’s skills, but there were other chanized species in the Sea of Space-Ti willing to pay any price for these exceptionally rare skills.
Just then, artillery suddenly rained down from the sky, with a series of explosions sounding!
