Chapter 643 14: Justice from the Heavens_2

And it itself was covered in an invisible Spiritual Defense Barrier on its body surface, directly flying towards Su Ying and the others who were retreating swiftly.

When the difference in individual strength is too great, even collective power struggles to stand a chance.

On the entire battlefield, the only ones capable of disrupting the Esoteric Cult Leader's movement were Mao Tu and Chen Long, because they too were Spiritual Awakened and could track the opponent's trajectory. As for the other soldiers, apart from those few outfitted with advanced modified electronic eyes, it was difficult for others to keep up with the opponent's speed.

This has exceeded the capability range of human eyesight, only relying on a dense firing net for coverage.

Fortunately, a considerable number of Beidou's elite troops had undergone high-level mechanical modifications, and with the aid of electronic eyes, they could still serve some function.

Just a few minutes of firefight.

Beidou's soldiers had already lost dozens, while the Esoteric Cult Leader's Spiritual Protection Field was broken, dense bullets riddled his clothes full of holes, revealing a gaunt body covered in blackish-blue skin beneath.

It looked like a dried-up skeleton, with only the heart standing out prominently and beating powerfully, even emitting a thumping sound.

"Alright then."

"You damned desecrators have indeed angered me!" The Esoteric Cult Leader finally halted his steps; Beidou's firing net was simply too strong.

They, born with a phobia of insufficient firepower, had part of their armored forces equipped with seventy-two-round rocket launchers. In a series of explosive sounds just now, the Esoteric Cult Leader's body was riddled with holes, and as the flesh squirmed and healed, his clothes had already fallen into utter disarray.

At this moment, his entire body was fully exposed, with almost no gender features on the surface, robust bones, a hunched body, the heart's position on the chest protruding, and his arms, powerful and robust. Seen moving swiftly to the side of a super mutant killed by an explosion, the tentacle on his arm directly pierced into the super mutant's body.

In the next second.

His original body seemed to dissolved like liquid, while the super mutant lying dead on the ground swelled rapidly again, with the heart's position emitting a bizarre red light.

Bang.

The ground was smashed into a one-meter-deep pit; the dead super mutant climbed back up again, while that Esoteric Cult Leader was left with only a cyan-black skin cover, tossed aside like trash.

"Now."

"It's my turn!"

The Esoteric Cult Leader's consciousness seemed to have transferred to this enhanced super mutant body. Roaring in a deep voice as if enraged, it charged straight forward withstanding dense bullets and bombings.

After swapping bodies, it seemed to no longer possess the terrifying telekinesis, but in its place was that conventional firepower was almost entirely ineffective against it. Even direct bombardment could only leave some minor wounds, which quickly healed at an astounding rate.

Whoosh!

A black tentacle suddenly extended when approaching an armored vehicle, its surface displaying a strange black metallic sheen, and in an incredible display, the suddenly inflated mutated tentacle pierced through the entire armored vehicle, leaving it a heap of scrap in an instant upon retrieval.

Not only that, it even charged toward an Apocalypse Heavy Tank, its back muscles bulging explosively in an instant, expanding several times. Mutant thick tentacles wrapped around the tank's exterior, then a massive force burst, directly flipping over the several dozen-ton heavy tank.

Frightening power, speed, burst capability, almost immune to all conventional weapon damage. Only energy weapons could slow its actions, but couldn't outmatch its recovery ability.

The Esoteric Cult Leader, in this new form, became an almost unsolvable presence on the battlefield.

While using telekinesis, Beidou's soldiers could inflict some fatal injuries on him, but now even breaching the outer proliferating armor proved difficult. What's scarier is that due to inherent radiation resistance and abnormal regenerative capability, a super mutant, unless within the core of a nuclear explosion, is virtually unkillable. This enhanced super mutant body before their eyes was even more so; unless Beidou could produce weapons with more power than nuclear fusion, killing it was nearly impossible.

Although it lost the ability to fly, this mutant monster in front had a running speed that wasn't slow, leaping tens of meters, swifter than many vehicles.

"Find a way to stop him!"

Dense artillery fire covered his forward path. When his figure reappeared, he was holding a dead super mutant wearing a heavy exoskeleton, using this heavy exoskeleton as a shield, charging toward the direction where Su Ying was retreating.

"Oh no! That monster has caught up!" The blonde woman turned pale.

As others nervously adjusted their fire to block the massive mutant monster from approaching, Su Ying fell into a strange silence at this moment, slightly squinting, eyelashes fluttering as if listening and responding to something. Then, she joyfully opened her eyes and jumped out by opening the car door.

Su Ying's exoskeleton had run out of energy, now she was only wearing regular clothing, and even stray bullets could claim her life.

"What are you doing?!" The blonde woman wore an expression of anger and panic, slamming on the brakes sharply.

Su Ying's eyes shone with a faint Spiritual Light, looking up at the sky and said, "Look at the sky!"

The sky was clear.

As the blonde woman wondered if Su Ying had mentally collapsed under pressure, she suddenly gaped in shock, unable to help but gape at the mysterious deep blue rift appearing in the sky.

That rift seemed like a portal connecting to another world.

In the torn sky, a dazzling red light abruptly shot out, piercing through the clouds directly and plummeting straight towards Su Ying's position.

"What is that?" The blonde woman activated her electronic eye.

Then, she saw what appeared to be folded metallic armor; as it approached Su Ying in mid-air, it suddenly split into dozens of armor pieces, with each piece automatically adhering to Su Ying's body, reforming into a bright red armor with seamless metallic curves, covering her 360 degrees without any blind spots.

"What is this?" The blonde woman asked in disbelief.

Beep.

Accompanied by a slight electrical sensation from the spinal area, Su Ying's vision instantly restored, followed by a burst of data flashing before her eyes. Along with various life detection signals appearing, a cold mechanical voice directly entered her mind.

"Interstellar Armor successfully activated!"

"Connecting auxiliary neural bundle! ... Neural connection complete! ... Compatibility 72%! ... Partial Spiritual Combat Techniques usage restricted! ..."

"Activate Black Shell combat system."

"Spiritual Amplifier engaged!"

"Plasma Light Saber charged up! ..."

Buzz.

A dark red Light Blade emerged in Su Ying's palm, plunging the entire battlefield into an eerie silence, while the blonde woman was left speechless in shock. Being a member of the Academy's Mechanical Ascension faction, she was well aware of the highly advanced technological standard of the Interstellar Armor currently worn by Su Ying.

This was definitely not an Earth-made item!
