Whoosh…

Harrison Clark used his battle shield to block a laser attack from the heat-melting cannon for the third time on behalf of Daniel Thompson.

Three minutes had passed since the two sides began their confrontation.

Harrison Clark’s Azure Dragon Armor remained unscathed, while Daniel Thompson’s leg was hit once by the heat-melting cannon.

Fortunately, Daniel dodged quickly and only suffered a graze. The heat energy did not fully penetrate, otherwise, his leg would have been gone.

However, Daniel’s mobility had declined, and he was in a dangerous situation for a while.

The old Individual Soldier Armors had been destroyed under Harrison Clark’s attacks, with seven units falling.

Of the total nineteen heat-melting cannons spread around the stadium, only eleven remain, with Harrison Clark being responsible for the destruction of eight.

Harrison Clark did even more than that; he rescued Daniel Thompson from danger several times. Without his performance, Daniel would have possibly been finished already.

Harrison Clark leaped up once again, firing a bullet with a live ammunition gun at the cracked armor of the old mech’s joint in front of him.

The bullet penetrated the armor, shattered the cable within, and caused the old mech’s right leg to shake due to insufficient power.

Simultaneously, Harrison Clark’s back ejected particle streams, propelling him forward.

The alloy knife was thrust out, piercing through the gap between the old mech’s chest armor and ending the life of the driver inside.

Then, Harrison Clark grabbed the alloy knife with one arm, circled around the old mech, kicked its head armor, and let it fall beside Daniel Thompson, blocking a round of charged shots from the heat-melting cannons for him.

“It looks like I’ve become a burden to you. Wearing such advanced Individual Soldier Armor and performing so poorly, I’ve really lost face for the instructor and shamed the Azure Dragon Armor.”

Daniel Thompson, holding the shield with one hand, spoke to Harrison Clark, who stood back-to-back with him.

As he spoke, he struggled to raise his shield, blocking another laser from the heat-melting cannon.

But unlike Harrison Clark’s agile dodges, Daniel’s alloy shield had already been used to withstand nearly ten attacks in a short time. It was now heated and faintly red.

At this point, the astonishing heat had already passed through the handle of the alloy shield and exceeded the insulation performance of the Azure Dragon Armor, transferring into his hand. He was just gritting his teeth and persisting.

Taking advantage of the short gap in the enemy’s concentrated fire, Harrison Clark shot down a large spotlight above the stadium stands with a backhanded shot, causing it to fall and destroy a heat-melting cannon, saying, “Lion, don’t say that. Our disadvantage is just due to not having the right weapons.”

“That’s true. Damn it, if we had regular weapons, these bastards wouldn’t stand a chance against us. Well, it is what it is. As soldiers, we don’t have the right to complain. Gunshots have been heard from the Research Institute building, and they’ve started attacking. They have Individual Soldier Armors, even older ones, but the conventional forces at the Research Institute can’t hold out for long. We need to hurry and join up with them. Don’t just focus on protecting me; give it your all! I’ll be fine!”

“Alright! Lion, be careful! Let me show them the terror of 20G!”

Harrison Clark no longer protected him, Daniel Thompson fought for his life, and with a low roar, he lunged forward, finally slashing the old armor’s central power system, disabling the large Individual Soldier Armor.

As Daniel looked back, he saw Harrison Clark had swiftly destroyed four old Individual Soldier Armors and three heat-melting cannons in an instant.

With fewer enemies, the offensive began to slow down, giving Daniel a chance to carefully observe the strength displayed by Harrison Clark.

Contrary to his brute force method of cutting through the central power axis, Harrison Clark’s every shot, every slash, and even each shield block followed by a shield strike, all hit the weak spots of the old armor.

He always managed the most significant gains with minimal movement.

This incredible skill was reminiscent of a butcher dissecting an ox, requiring a deep understanding of the old armor.

Wait a minute…

The old armor had been obsolete for almost twenty years; how could Harrison understand it so well?

Daniel Thompson was greatly surprised, even losing focus for a moment and almost falling victim to a sneak attack.

Harrison Clark, who effortlessly severed the arm of the last old armor that tried to attack Daniel, shouted, “Lion, what are you doing in a daze!”

Daniel Thompson snapped back to reality and hurriedly joined forces with Harrison Clark to deal with the last two heat-melting cannons on either side.

There was no time to explain any further. The two men broke through the stadium’s main entrance and rushed out.

As he watched Harrison Clark’s retreating figure, Daniel Thompson sighed inwardly.Earlier, the General said that his battle prowess was rare, and he didn’t even believe it.

Now, he had to believe it even if he didn’t.

“Harrison Clark, just how terrifying is your observation skills? This is only your first encounter, and you’ve already completely seen through the weaknesses of the old armor! I’m convinced, I’m really convinced this time!”

Hearing the heartfelt praise from Lion, Harrison Clark couldn’t help but blush.

You might not believe me if I told you.

I don’t have any of the keen observation skills you’re talking about.

I just… used it a long time ago!

And last time I was here, your damn scolding lasted for more than a month to remember the weaknesses and flaws of these old armors!

“Harrison Clark! What the hell are you doing? Don’t you know that the elbow joint position must reduce the armor thickness to ensure flexibility? So when you attack with your blade, you must find a way to cover the flaws!”

“Damn it, Harrison Clark, remember this: there are two seams on both sides of the breastplate, so even if you sacrifice the armor on your arms, you must block a frontal attack!”

Unlike those half-hearted pilots from the fugitive faction, who only knew fierce attacks and fierce fighting, when Harrison Clark came here last time, the main focus of the regular army’s training was on how to protect these flaws and weaknesses, and how to play to their strengths and avoid their shortcomings.

Last time he came, Lion, who was known as the top instructor, was still a master among masters in Harrison Clark’s eyes, with a very impressive appearance. This time, however, he was just a brain-dead fan because of the old armor.

It really is fate making fun of people.

In just a minute and a half, the two finally appeared at the crossroads facing the entrance of the research institute building. They looked at the scene before them and couldn’t help but gasp in shock.

Daniel Thompson: “This is… insane.”

Harrison Clark nodded, “Yes, it’s a big move.”

In the large square outside the building, there were densely packed hundreds of old-fashioned armors.

There were also nearly two hundred armored vehicles, displayed as red dots on the three-dimensional map.

They had completely surrounded the building.

On the outside of the encirclement, hundreds of people were sitting in heavily guarded Quadruple Battlefield Devices.

The research institute’s Guardian Army had long been out of ammunition and supplies, and even the defensive cannons sticking out from the ground and the building floors had just been destroyed one by one.

Perhaps the fugitive faction was just wary of inadvertently damaging the Ter River 711 within. Otherwise, if they were to launch a full-fledged attack, the research institute would have fallen long ago.

Harrison Clark wondered, “How come there are so many obsolete armors? Don’t they recycle the metal?”

Daniel Thompson pointed to one of several middle-aged men in suits and leather shoes behind the large Quadruple Battlefield Device’s top-level glass curtain wall, saying, ”1 recognize him. He’s a senior executive of a monopoly enterprise in the global resource recycling industry. It must be him who secretly hoarded these old armors. Unfortunately, the signals in Penrith are now blocked, and we can’t send out this information.”

“Lion, that’s not important. The important thing is, can we hold on?”

Harrison Clark swallowed, the enemy and our numbers were too different. With his own personality, he instinctively wanted to run away.

But Daniel Thompson had already rushed out.

Lion yelled on the communicator, “Even if we can’t hold on, we have to try! If we retreat against the internal troubles, what can we face the enemy in space? Now Harrison Clark, you are the focus of the whole army. Everyone can retreat, but you can’t!”

Harrison Clark: “Uh…”

“They’ve got their core backbone here. Once they break through the defense, these people will surely assemble and launch the Ter River 711 in the research institute to escape to space. Such a large-scale warship will cause severe damage to Penrith when it takes off, and at least one-third of Penrith’s population will be killed by the jet-propelled heat energy particle stream!”

Harrison Clark was really sweating bullets, as Daniel Thompson had put him on the spot with just a few words.

He gritted his teeth and rushed out too.

Fuck it, if I can’t hold out this time, I’ll just go back to the end of the world earlier. It’s not like I’m really dead, it’s not a big deal.

He heard Daniel Thompson’s shout again in his ear, “Don’t worry, I told you, I won’t let you die before me! Kill!”
