Chapter 621 Difficult Breakthrough and Mysterious Clues
The mechanical creatures completely surrounded Lin Yu and his companions, emitting sharp metallic scraping sounds as they relentlessly pressed forward. Their red eyes gleamed eerily in the dim light. Lin Yu swiftly drew his weapon, stepping aside to shield Ellie and Xiao Wang, his eyes warily scanning the surroundings, searching for an opportunity to break free.
“These mechanical creatures have a very regular attack pattern, and they seem to be under unified control,” Ellie analyzed calmly in the tense atmosphere. As she spoke, she took out a scanning device, trying to decipher the communication frequencies between the mechanical creatures.
Xiao Wang gripped his weapon tightly, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. "No matter what they are, let's deal with these guys first!" Before he finished speaking, a mechanical creature launched its attack, leaping high into the air and thrusting its sharp blade towards Xiao Wang. Xiao Wang dodged to the side, the blade grazing his arm and leaving a shallow bloodstain.
"Xiao Wang, watch out!" Lin Yu shouted, firing an energy beam at the mechanical creature attacking Xiao Wang. The beam struck the mechanical creature, causing its body to tremble violently and cracks to appear on its metal surface, but it quickly regained its mobility, seemingly unaffected.
“Ordinary attacks aren’t very effective against them; we need to find another way.” Lin Yu frowned, realizing that this battle was more difficult than he had imagined. At this moment, more mechanical creatures surrounded them, their attacks becoming increasingly dense, forcing the three of them to retreat continuously, seeking cover.
Ellie stared intently at the scanning device, then her eyes lit up. "I've found their communication frequency! Maybe I can interfere with their control system." With that, she quickly adjusted the device in her hand and emitted a jamming wave.
Affected by the interference wave, the mechanical creatures' movements were briefly disrupted; they collided with each other, and their attack rhythm was thrown off balance. Lin Yu seized this opportunity and shouted, "Now! Charge out!" The three of them charged towards the weakest point in the encirclement, weaving left and right through the chaotic horde of mechanical creatures.
Just as they were about to break through the encirclement, a gigantic mechanical creature charged from behind. It swung its thick mechanical arm, aiming to smash it down on the three of them. Lin Yu reacted quickly, pulling Ellie and Xiao Wang to roll away and dodge the attack. The massive mechanical arm slammed into the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
"This giant is too troublesome. Let's attack its joints together and see if we can immobilize it," Lin Yu shouted. The three concentrated their firepower, continuously firing energy beams at the giant mechanical creature's joints. Under the sustained attack, the giant mechanical creature's joints began to loosen, and its movements became sluggish.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, the three finally broke through the encirclement of the mechanical creatures and sprinted towards the spaceship. The mechanical creatures pursued relentlessly from behind, their speed increasing rapidly, gradually closing the distance between them.
"Faster, faster!" Lin Yu shouted, firing back as he ran, trying to halt the mechanical creatures' pursuit. Finally, they reached the spaceship and quickly boarded. Lin Yu started the ship, the powerful engines roared, and the ship slowly rose into the air.
The mechanical creature watched helplessly as the three escaped. After shaking off the mechanical creature's pursuit, Lin Yu landed the spaceship in a relatively safe area. The three began to check the spaceship's condition and discuss their next plan.
“These mechanical creatures are definitely related to that mysterious force; their appearance is no accident,” Ellie said. Xiao Wang nodded in agreement: “That’s right, we need to find their control center and completely resolve this problem.”
Lin Yu pondered for a moment, "During the battle just now, I noticed that those buildings seemed to be related to the actions of the mechanical creatures. Perhaps the control center is inside those buildings."
So they disembarked from the spaceship again and headed towards the building they had previously discovered. This time, they were much more cautious, prepared to deal with any unexpected situations. As they approached a building, Ellie noticed strange symbols carved on its walls. These symbols were unlike any they had encountered before, yet they exuded a mysterious aura.
“These symbols seem to be conveying some kind of message.” Ellie took out her scanning device and analyzed the symbols. After some effort, she finally deciphered the meaning of the symbols: “They say that deep within this planet, there is a huge energy source, and this energy source is the key to controlling everything.”
Lin Yu looked at the symbols on the wall, a glimmer of hope igniting in his heart: "It seems we've found a crucial clue. No matter how dangerous it is, we must delve deeper into the planet and find that energy source." However, they were unaware that even more severe trials and unknown dangers awaited them deep within the planet. Would they be able to successfully find the energy source, uncover the true nature of the mysterious force, and completely resolve this crisis?
