Chapter 568 - 239: The Left Side Always Loses a Beam Struggle! Godlike

He understood the dangers of this region better than anyone.

The squad sped through the complex network of pipes, following the coordinates provided by the command center.

Just then, a shockwave far more violent than the earlier tremors erupted from the depths of the ruins!

The entire metallic labyrinth seemed to be disintegrating as dazzling sparks of electricity burst from countless pipe joints.

Before the team could react, the command center liaison’s voice, laced with shock and disbelief, blared in their ears.

"Squad Five! Deep-layer probes have an update! The new A-Class individual is engaging two other A-Class individuals... I repeat, they’re fighting each other!"

The expressions on the five squad members’ faces froze instantly.

’Infighting?’

’The Intelligent Mechanism Race, governed by a single unified will, is actually fighting amongst itself?’

"Pick up the pace!"

Qin Feng made the call instantly, the unease in his heart growing more intense.

He had a feeling things were nowhere near as simple as the command center’s analysis suggested.

As they followed the latest coordinates and neared the core of the engagement zone, a terrifying wave of energy washed over them, so powerful it made their very souls tremble.

Without hesitation, the five of them erupted with Gang Sha while simultaneously pushing the energy shields of their Exoskeleton Armor to the maximum.

The next instant, a pure white light consumed their vision.

The world went silent.

After the explosion, as their sight and hearing slowly returned, all five members of the squad stared at the scene before them, completely stunned.

The area ahead, which should have been a massive factory floor, had completely vanished.

In its place was an enormous spherical cavity, over five kilometers in diameter, with edges as smooth as glass—as if a god had scooped out a chunk with a spoon.

And at the center of that cavity, a sight that would shatter their understanding of the world was unfolding clearly before their eyes.

Two Energy Cannons, as thick as celestial pillars, were locked in a furious struggle!

On the left were two silver-white members of the Intelligent Mechanism Race, their forms merged into a terrifying cannon emplacement. Every wisp of energy radiating from them was enough to make an expert like Qin Feng, who had reached Divine Realm Perfection, feel suffocated.

And on the right...

The one wielding a destructive Energy Cannon that was in no way inferior—and in fact, seemed to have the upper hand—was not a third Intelligent Mechanism.

It was a person!

A human... covered in a layer of pitch-black Gang Sha!

"Command Center!"

Qin Feng stared intently at the familiar yet alien figure, his voice trembling with utter shock. "Target... the target is not from the Intelligent Mechanism Race!"

"It’s a person! It’s... Lin Ye!"

"I repeat! The one engaging two A-Class Intelligent Mechanisms is Major Lin Ye!"

That name struck like a bolt from the blue, exploding simultaneously over Squad Five’s comms channel and in the command center hundreds of meters underground.

Inside the command center, countless personnel snapped their heads up to look at the main screen.

When that young, impassive face came through clearly from Qin Feng’s tactical visor, the entire hall fell deathly silent.

’It’s really him!’

’The peerless prodigy who performed countless miracles at the training camp and just took first place in the National Martial Arts Entrance Exam!’

’How could he be here?!’

’And how could he possibly be... locked in a power struggle with two A-Class Intelligent Mechanisms?!’

Just as everyone’s minds were reeling, the figure at the center of the energy storm on screen seemed to notice something. He cast a faint glance in the direction of Qin Feng and his team.

It was only a glance.

Devoid of any emotion, as casual as looking at a roadside pebble.

But that one glance made the hearts of Qin Feng’s squad and everyone watching in the command center seize up. A chill shot from the soles of their feet straight to the crowns of their heads.

’In the middle of that world-ending clash, he... he actually has the spare attention to look away?!’

As if to confirm their suspicions.

The next instant, under everyone’s horrified gaze, Lin Ye’s Energy Cannon suddenly swelled in size.

The stalemate was shattered in an instant!

Behind Lin Ye, the soul fire in Ah Qiang’s eye sockets flickered violently. It could sense that this sudden surge of power had nothing to do with it.

It was already giving everything it had, even starting to burn its very soul essence, just to barely keep up with a battle of this caliber.

’This is all my master. He’s using some technique that I can’t even begin to comprehend!’

In truth, Lin Ye hadn’t done anything special.

He had simply taken 500 of the more than 5,000 points of life energy he’d collected during his day-long rampage and poured it all into this attack.

BOOM—!!!

The pillar of energy erupting from Lin Ye’s hands instantly swelled.

The overwhelming torrent of energy surged forward.

The energy wave from the two Intelligent Mechanisms was about to collapse.

A smirk played on Lin Ye’s lips.

’Haven’t you heard? The guy on the left always loses the beam struggle. Why don’t they ever learn?’

In the next moment, Lin Ye’s Energy Cannon completely engulfed the two fused Intelligent Mechanisms.

For the first time, a look of utterly human-like panic and astonishment appeared on their smooth, mirrored faces.

According to their calculations, this human’s combat power rating was only 5!

Yet now, the power he had unleashed was pushing them to the brink of destruction!

An even more violent explosion erupted.

Pure white light once again consumed everything.

Qin Feng’s survival instincts screamed at him.

’We’re going to die! We’re going to die! We’re going to die!’

But it was too late for them to do anything.

In the very next instant, just as the terrifying energy explosion was about to engulf them...

...a pitch-black energy shield materialized before them!

It blocked the frenzied shockwave and rampant energy.

At that moment, Qin Feng and his four squadmates, along with countless people in the command center, watched the back of the figure who stood unmoving amidst the cataclysmic explosion.

The shock in their hearts was beyond words.

’Is he a god?!’
