_2 “How could this happen?” Clint remained skeptical, spreading his palm where a stream of dull yellow sand gathered and condensed into a smooth pebble, then he suddenly threw it out.

With a thud!

the pebble embedded itself into the steel wall but didn’t trigger any energy reaction.

“The Energy Shield really is gone?” Clint hesitated, acutely sensing that sothing was amiss.

“What do we do?” Everyone looked over.

After so thought, Clint said, “Try to hack into their surveillance system.”

“Hack in directly?” The operative handling this part of the plan was puzzled.

“Hack in directly,” Clint didn’t elaborate further; the operative nodded, glanced at the surveillance probe on the tal wall, and tossed out a magnetic disk.

A faint snap sound that was almost undetectable, the smart terminal was activated, and after a series of operations, he too exclaid in surprise, “How could this be?”

“It’s been hacked already?” Clint quickly asked.

“No, it’s like these surveillance probes have all stopped working, their security system, is it turned off?”

“Was it one of our people?”

The expressions of those present grew more suspicious, but Clint wasn’t too surprised and muttered, “I knew it…”

“Sothing must have happened to the castle, stick to the original plan,” Clint emphasized again, “Be even more careful.

Rember, our goal is to capture him; we absolutely cannot harm him.”

“If anyone catches him, leave imdiately by the retreat route; others who can escape should do so, and if not, find a place to hide and wait for a chance to leave, understood?”

“Understood!”

…

“Ha…” Rob laughed out loud, looking at the screen before him, “The place holding Azure Dragon, indeed has a separate system.”

Behind him, Huo Tan, who was tornted beyond recognition on the chanical sucker, his sight blurry, whispered, “Do you have an inside man in the castle, or soone high up, who is it?”

“That, you needn’t worry about,” Rob glanced at the console.

“You will never be able to open it, wait for the master to co back…” Huo Tan said intermittently.

“Ha…” Rob was dismissive, “This lab was converted from the Giant Shield Company’s vault.”

“After the external power and system are disconnected, it will automatically lock down, even an A-grade Life Form, trying to forcibly open it, would need so ti.”

“However, you probably haven’t seen their system’s human rights regulations; before the power goes out, they will detect whether there is a living Life Form inside.”

“Once detected, it can’t be opened from the outside, but it can from the inside.”

Such a regulation existed?

Huo Tan’s pupils shrank, then a startled cry escaped him as he realized sothing was amiss, “Has Azure Dragon made an agreent with you?”

No wonder that guy had been idle, not actually contemplating a repair solution, but waiting for Rob and his team to make their move.

Rob snickered, “Heh, he was caught by Ulrich, held in his grasp, then forcibly brought to the castle and confined.

He worked for you only out of compulsion.

What makes you think he would be compliant?”

“Ulrich’s brain really isn’t working anymore.”

“You think he was coerced?” Huo Tan’s voice rose several notches, then beca even more horrifying, a chill penetrating to the bone spread across his body.

How could he possibly be coerced?

Huo Tan shivered all over, suddenly realizing that Ulrich’s premonition was right.

Azure Dragon had co with a purpose!

Rob, too, was probably being played; once Azure Dragon was set loose, he would imdiately run off with the Material Reorganization Machine.

Rob was checking the control console and quickly found the button to cut the power.

But just then, there ca an almost imperceptible click from behind, followed by Flora’s gasp of alarm.

Rob instinctively turned his head, the last thing he saw were the tal limbs hanging off the chanical sucker while the torso had vanished.

Then, boom!

A fierce blaze erupted from the tal limbs, sweeping through the entire room in an instant.

The intense explosion spread rapidly, a fierce wind suddenly rose, energy flooding out inexhaustibly, the terrible heat warping the air, the electronic screens lting.

Bang!!

Suddenly, the accumulated energy exploded a second ti, louder than before, the fire and smoke spreading rapidly, blasting the tal walls to pieces, then sweeping through the entire floor.

From afar, the steel castle’s first floor was erupting with intense firelight, with smoke rings spreading as raiders on Trading Island lifted their heads in shock.

In the room, Rob’s skin felt searingly painful, his complexion turned ugly, he took a deep breath, and all the flas converged towards him, swallowed into his stomach.

The surroundings were a complete ss, everyone’s skin was scorched black, and he looked at the chanical suction cup that had fallen to the ground and said coldly, “Froza…”

“No, it wasn’t …” Froza crawled up, his body charred, quickly explaining, “His torso unexpectedly detached from his limbs, and I didn’t have ti to react…”

This kind of self-explosion had a vast range but limited individual lethality.

However, they were all B-level life forms and bore the brunt of it.

“The noise is too loud, hurry up with the ti!” Rob didn’t have ti to pursue the matter.

Fortunately, at the last mont, he cut off the energy supply, and now he just needed to go to et Azure Dragon.

anwhile, Huo Tan, who had just obtained spare limbs, wore a somber expression as he took a secret elevator to the lower levels, simultaneously operating swiftly on the elevator’s interface.

“Azure Dragon…” Huo Tan regretted, it was because of this chanic that he had made the discovery.

Had it not been for his own suggestion, his superior wouldn’t have been involved in so much trouble.

Sandro’s target was probably the Material Reorganization Machine.

His lord might not be able to return in ti, and he was no match for Rob and the others.

Huo Tan gritted his teeth with a gloomy expression, “If my lord can’t have it, none of you shall!”

He had made up his mind; he couldn’t stop Rob and the others, but he could kill Azure Dragon!

Ding–

The elevator opened, and the vault door was within reach.

Huo Tan took a deep breath, electrical arcs surged, and the structure unfolded, with the chanical structures on his legs extending to form a base similar to a turret’s support.

His arms ca together, the chanical structure extended inch by inch, and the center ford an energy rail-like cavity, a module for energy accumulation attacks that many high-end chanical Transformations possess.

It was one of the advantages of chanical Transformations, capable of bearing and accumulating more energy than life forms of the sa level.

Although these were spare limbs and less efficient than the previous chanical limbs, the sneak attack still promised considerable firepower.

In the end, his abdon opened up to reveal a pulsating chanical Auxiliary Heart.

He hadn’t undergone full chanical transformation and still retained many organs, hence couldn’t completely turn his heart into an energy engine and had to install a chanical Auxiliary Heart to supply energy to his chanical limbs.

Whirr–

Accompanied by the whirring sound, the energy grew more intense, the barrel gradually turned red, and Huo Tan clenched his teeth, his eyes filled with bloodshot veins.

Focusing on the hatch, waiting for the mont it would open.

However, as ti passed, the hatch showed no sign of movent, and Huo Tan felt increasingly impatient.

There was a limit to how long he could maintain the energy buildup, and he couldn’t afford to waste much ti here.

Why hasn’t he co out yet?

Isn’t he supposed to cooperate with Rob from the inside and the outside?

“Lord Huo Tan, may I ask, what are you doing?”

A familiar voice suddenly reached his ears.

Huo Tan’s expression froze, his eyes filled with astonishnt.

“When, when did you!?”

He struggled to turn his head, but found it nearly impossible from his highly charged posture.

“It seems you can’t turn around, let help you,” the voice was gentle, Huo Tan felt a hand press on his head, and then…

Crack!

His vision rotated one hundred eighty degrees, excruciating pain assaulting his nerves, and before his eyes, was his familiar superior—the great chanic, Azure Dragon!

How…

How could this be?

There was no response from my detection equipnt!

Huo Tan was bewildered, not knowing when the other had appeared behind him.

His body shook violently, the energy cannon, which had been charging for a long ti, fired uncontrollably.

Boom!

A beam of intense light struck the laboratory wall, and after a brief vibration, a large hole was blown through it.

How could…

this happen?

Now lying on the ground, Huo Tan’s expression was blank, today’s events continuously overturning his understanding.

The alloy designed to withstand attacks from A-level life forms had just been breached by a large hole from his own attack?
