Chapter 468 Falling into the Deep Sea (11)

"boom!"

Han Zu and the fused metal figure charged at each other, and Han Zu unleashed a powerful swing, successfully hitting the metal figure's body, while the opponent's transformed limbs, like a kinetic impact hammer, smashed directly into Han Zu's chest.

This time, Han Zu suffered a loss for the first time in a head-on confrontation. He seemed to be unaffected by the attack of the fused metal humanoid, but the opponent's attack directly blasted a considerable dent in his chest, and flesh and blood flew everywhere. The few steps he took backwards proved that Han Zu had officially fallen into a disadvantage for the first time in the contest of strength.

Although Han Zu was surprised, he was not intimidated by the power of the fused metal figure. After stabilizing his pace, he continued to fight with the fused metal figure in close combat while looking for opportunities to use high-energy vision attacks. The fused metal figure was not at a disadvantage in this fight. It also released the green light from time to time to counter Han Zu's high-energy rays.

The two-color light kept colliding and deflecting. The violent collision of limbs made the originally dim environment suddenly burst with dazzling light. The harsh collision of limbs and the sound of air explosions echoed throughout the entire area. The continuous attacks of both sides caused a whirlwind to form in the area centered on them due to the air pressure, enveloping the two fighting parties. Xin, who was hiding behind the bunker and observing outside the combat range, also lost the opportunity to observe because of the appearance of the cyclone.

"Boom boom boom boom!!!"

Although the sounds of explosions from the mutual bombardment continued, it was still obvious that the fused metal humanoid did not seem to like this kind of close combat method of punching and fighting. It kept looking for opportunities to distance itself from Han Zu, but the latter kept pressing forward step by step and could not be easily shaken off.

Not liking close combat doesn't mean that the fused metal humanoid is not good at it. Although Han Zu had the advantage in momentum, in actual combat, except for the occasional unavoidable high-energy rays that left a scratch on the fused metal humanoid's body, Han Zu gradually fell into a disadvantage in close combat. His body, which should have been extremely strong, was constantly shattered and collapsed under the bombardment of the fused metal humanoid, with blood splattering everywhere, almost like a small-scale blood rain, turning this place into a hellish scene like a slaughterhouse.

The fused metal figure seemed to have considerable intelligence. It was gradually analyzing Han Zu's steps, attack methods, and attack habits. From being evenly matched at the beginning to gradually gaining the upper hand now, one minute after the battle broke out, Han Zu could hardly cause considerable damage to the fused metal figure, except for occasional luck that allowed high-energy rays to hit the opponent. On the other hand, most of Han Zu's flesh and blood had been blown away, splattering around in the form of blood. Although Han Zu did not seem to be at a disadvantage with his powerful self-healing ability, he knew very well that this fused metal figure, except for the energy sustainability that was not as good as his, was moving towards crushing him in all other aspects.

"I can't go on like this. I have to find a way to defeat this thing. There are definitely more things like this inside these giant metal structures."

Han Zu realized his current predicament. He absolutely did not believe that there was only one thing this difficult to deal with. In this giant metal structure that he had never encountered before, there must be other things similar to this one, or even more powerful than this one. If he wanted to continue his exploration smoothly, he had to master the method of defeating them.

Under this extreme situation, Han Zu also realized the turning point. Since there are metal humanoids that consume a lot of energy inside this metal structure, there must be something for them to absorb energy. As long as the energy is enough, Han Zu can find the energy source to establish a long-distance node and connect to the contractor's matrix, so as to get in touch with the transmission node again and leave here. Hope is right in front of him, he will never give up easily, and he will never allow himself to die in such an unclear situation.

Xin, who was wearing engineering armor, had no way to participate in the battle between Han Zu and the metal figure. The aftermath of the battle alone caused the detection module of the engineering armor to continuously issue danger warnings. If involved in the battle, the protective effect of the engineering armor would be minimal. But Xin couldn't just hide behind the bunker and stare blankly. Even though she couldn't even see the center of the battle, which was getting faster and faster, she was still looking for ways to help Han Zu.

"Dang~dang~"

Xin was a little anxious because it couldn't work. At this moment, when she put down her right hand, the arm armor rubbed against something, making a crisp metal collision sound. Xin looked down and saw that it was the ones she had hung on her waist before. They were Han Zu's special stun bombs. These were originally used by Han Zu to protect himself as traps. Xin collected more than a dozen of them and hung them above the leg holster.

Xin thought that this thing might be of some help to Han Zu, but she couldn't be sure. However, there was no other way at this time, so she could only throw two stun bombs towards the battle location.

"Watch out for the flash!!"

"Boom!!!"

Han Zu, who was in the middle of the battle, actually didn't hear clearly what Xin shouted, but his perception ability, which was continuously activated during the battle, captured something flying over. However, because the battle was intense, he didn't pay attention to it. It was not until a dazzling flash appeared in front of his eyes and a buzzing sound appeared in his ears that Han Zu realized that Xin had thrown something over.

The special stun bomb immediately deprived Han Zu of his hearing and vision. The buzzing sound continued, causing Han Zu's attack to deviate from its original direction and miss. However, Han Zu immediately used his visual ability on the inconspicuous lenses on his body to connect with the subsequent attacks. At this moment, Han Zu was surprised to find that the fused metal figure actually paused for a second or two.

"Yes! Keep throwing!!!"

Han Zu's shout mixed with energy shock was much louder and full of energy. Xin also immediately threw the remaining special shock bombs accurately to the side of the metal figure according to the gap before and after the metal figure's attack. Although this thing had a great impact on Han Zu, he could change the position of vision constantly. In this kind of close combat, hearing is actually not too important.

"empty!!!"

However, the fused metal figure was not so easy to defeat. Xin's feint was useful, but the blast bombs on her body were soon used up. Xin fought guerrilla warfare at the edge of the two people's fighting range, constantly looking for opportunities, using plasma pistols to interfere with the movements of the fused metal figure and create opportunities for Han Zu.

During this period, Han Zu also continued to produce those special stun bombs. The dazzling flashes emitted by the constantly exploding stun bombs, the high-energy rays and ghostly green light bombarded by both sides, and the plasma projectiles fired from time to time by Xin turned the battle location into an alternative disco. Various colors of light pollution kept flashing, interweaving and merging together, making this place chaotic.

"Qiang~~!"

The fused metal figure seemed to be unable to bear the disturbance, and one of its limbs instantly reorganized into a sharp sword, which it swung towards Han Zu's position, cutting off his arm. After interrupting Han Zu's offensive rhythm, it continued to try to distance itself from Han Zu. Although Han Zu's self-healing ability took effect quickly and could keep him busy, Han Zu would not gain anything except a stalemate.

Doing useless work is a taboo under any circumstances. While keeping the opponent within his combat range, Han Zu began to think quickly, analyzing the current situation, and trying to find a way to defeat the fused metal humanoid.

The opponent was much stronger than him in close combat, and his speed was also much faster than his. However, he was far superior in energy concentration. The continuous fighting had made the opponent unable to use light attacks. Half a minute ago, the fused metal figure had rarely used light. If he wanted to defeat the opponent, he should probably start with energy attacks.

However, although my energy attack can cause considerable damage to the fused metal humanoid, the opponent will always retain the light attack and counterattack when I use high-energy rays. Moreover, the opponent will intentionally avoid being hit by high-energy rays. The opponent's speed and reaction are better than mine. If I want to find an opportunity, I must solve the speed problem.

"Qiang!!!"

After another confrontation, Han Zu was cut in half by the fused metal humanoid due to a misjudgment. In order to deal with the subsequent attacks of the fused metal humanoid, Han Zu did not rush to recover. Instead, he used his flying ability to let his upper body go around its side and used the particle chain to give the opponent a heavy blow at close range, causing considerable damage to it. A series of hideous scars immediately appeared on the fused metal humanoid's body.

"Buzz~~!!!"

However, although Han Zu's upper body dodged the subsequent pursuit of the fused metal humanoid, the lower body that remained in place was not in time. It was cut into several small pieces by the metal humanoid's light sweep and fell to the ground. In order to avoid the continuous hits of Han Zu's high-energy rays, the fused metal humanoid made a displacement charge, knocking those fragments of Han Zu's body into a blood mist, which splashed all around.

The rebirth of the body naturally takes more time than the reorganization of the body. The continuous pursuit of the fused metal humanoid did not intend to give Han Zu a chance to regenerate his body. Han Zu could only temporarily interrupt the process of body rebirth and continue fighting with half of his body. Fortunately, with the support of the flying ability, his mobility did not decrease.

Although half of the body was gone, Han Zu's target was also half as small, and it was even harder for the fused metal humanoid to hit him. Taking this opportunity, Han Zu continued to observe the opponent, looking for a way to break the deadlock. He noticed that the opponent's energy reserve seemed to have dropped to a certain level, and the scars on its body left by Han Zu before were repairing very slowly.

As Han Zu kept moving, he looked at his blood and torso fragments splattering all around him, which were still active due to the interruption of the rebirth process. An idea gradually emerged in his mind. Although his speed could not be increased, he might have a chance to slow down the opponent to achieve a similar effect.

Han Zu activated the space storage system of the contractor's equipment and threw out the container that could generate special stun bombs.

"Cover me with this!"

"it is good!"

Xin, who was outside the battle range, immediately changed her route, got the container, and used the special blast bomb inside to constantly interfere with the battle center. However, in her sight, Han Zu did not seem to have any good countermeasures. His speed seemed to slow down. Almost every attack, the fused metal humanoid could reduce the remaining integrity of Han Zu's body. Soon, Han Zu was left with only half of his head flying in the air and continuing to fight back.

"boom!!!"

Finally, the fused metal humanoid seemed to have seized the opportunity. The ends of its two limbs turned into cylindrical structures, captured the flying movement of Han Zu's head, and suddenly squeezed it into minced meat and residue.

The battle seemed to be over with the victory of the fused metal humanoid, but looking at the blood and body parts on the ground, as well as the gradually increasing energy fluctuations, Xin, who was outside the range of the battle, thought that things must not be that simple.

“Swish, swish, swish…”

“Kala la la!!”

Just as the fused metal figure stopped moving and began to repair the damage to its body, something strange happened. The blood and body fragments that were splattered everywhere suddenly began to wriggle rapidly. Then, just as the fused metal figure was about to interrupt the recovery process and prepare to move again, Han Zu's biological force field suddenly appeared near it. The powerful gravitational force instantly pulled the surrounding blood and body fragments together, and instantly wrapped the fused metal figure inside. Han Zu's twisted and stretched body appeared again.

"Throw it now!!!"

Han Zu's distorted voice echoed in Xin's ears. Xin immediately threw all the stun bombs in his hand and rushed to the back of the nearby bunker. A large number of stun bombs exploded at the same time, and the dazzling white light was like a star flash, briefly illuminating a large area. The sound waves of several explosions merged together, causing the ground to tremble briefly.

The fused metal figure seemed to have foreseen its own situation, and immediately put all the remaining energy into the attack of the light, which immediately pierced through Han Zu's body, which was wrapped around it. Han Zu was not idle either. He first overloaded his energy conversion ability, causing secondary damage to himself, and used the energy of the absorbed light to power himself, and then created dozens of lenses in his body. After that, he immediately turned on all the energy and used all the lenses at the same time to release high-energy rays. The extremely close distance allowed all the high-energy rays to directly hit the body of the fused metal figure. Although the opponent also outputted all the energy, increasing the power of the light, the collision of high-energy rays and light even destroyed a large number of lenses, but Han Zu continued to create lenses to ensure the continuation of the attack. The extremely high temperature had begun to melt the bodies of both parties, so that layers of heat waves appeared around their positions, and the nearby metal structures began to heat up and change color.

“Buzz~~~~!!!!!!”

"boom!!!!!!"

As the degree of energy compression reached its limit, the reckless use of energy against each other eventually caused a violent explosion. The resulting shock wave heated up the previously generated heat wave again and pushed it out at a rapid speed, causing Xin, who was hiding behind a bunker outside the combat range and a little distance away, wearing heavy engineering armor, to fall over due to the impact of the fusion.

After the shock wave passed his position, Xin immediately climbed up, drew out the power sword, used the overload shooting of the plasma pistol to manually overload the power sword, and then immediately rushed to the center of the explosion. If Han Zu failed to kill the weird fused metal figure, then he must finish him off immediately to ensure the safety of the environment.

However, the situation seemed to be better than Xin had imagined. When she arrived at the center of the explosion, she did not see the fused metal figure, but only saw Han Zu, whose body had melted a lot and showed the form of a liquid metal figure. In front of his slowly repairing body was a large pool of high-temperature liquid metal with the same color as the fused metal figure. Xin observed that Han Zu's hands had actually inserted into the metal structure that was completely indestructible before. It can be seen that the melted liquid body of the fused metal figure, which seemed to be unable to be absorbed by him before, was slowly being absorbed by him from the position of his fingers inserted into the metal structure of the ground.

Han Zu's body was recovering from the liquid metal state. The color of his re-solidified body seemed to have become a little darker. From these locations, a large amount of energy residues of the fused metal humanoid could still be detected, but they were disappearing rapidly. Soon, the liquid remains of the fused metal humanoid were completely absorbed by Han Zu, and his body quickly returned to normal.

"How are you?"

"...very good."
