Super Island Tycoon-Chapter 777 - 776 Formation
This is the power exhibited by a well-coordinated combat unit, a level of combat strength that simply can't be faced alone.
Everyone observing the confrontation test at the edge of the field was holding their breath for the Xingtian Type 1.
It was evident to all that the Xingtian Type was in a very disadvantageous position.
If the Xingtian Type can't break out of this situation, it might be defeated in an instant.
Only Jiang Cheng remained calm, showing no trace of concern.
He had absolute confidence in his newly designed armor, believing the Xingtian Type could handle the current situation and ultimately defeat the five opponents.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, the Xingtian Type made its move.
Its actions surprised everyone, as the Xingtian Type ignored the bullets shooting at its back and instead stepped forward.
As it took a large step forward, the blade on its arm extended, and it swung the blade towards the opponent in front.
Those witnessing this were puzzled by the Xingtian Type's choice, as bullets from behind were about to hit it.
Even if it could fend off the frontal attack, the two armors behind it with Gauss Rifles would thoroughly defeat the Xingtian Type 1.
However, the audience's doubts didn't last long as what happened next provided the answer.
The bullets flashed through the air, hitting the back of the Xingtian Type 1 heavily.
Ding! Dang!
The bullets striking the Xingtian Type 1 produced a crisp sound of metal clashing, reverberating continuously in the field.
Yet the Xingtian Type was unaffected by these bullets and continued its attack on the nearest opponent.
The bullets striking the Xingtian Type were like tickles, unable to breach its defense or distort its action.
The Xingtian Type appeared not to feel even the impact of the bullets, maintaining its previous motion, intending to use offense as its strategy.
Seeing the Gauss Rifle bullets ineffective against the Xingtian Type, the audience was astounded.
They were aware of the Gauss Rifle's power, capable of penetrating thick steel plates with ease.
Even if the Xingtian's armor was extremely tough, Gauss Rifle bullets should still impact it significantly.
But on the field, the Xingtian Type acted as if nothing happened, disregarding all the bullets from behind.
This was a scenario Jiang Cheng had anticipated, hence his lack of surprise, maintaining a calm demeanor.
Jiang Cheng was well aware of the Xingtian Type's armor strength, making it impervious to Gauss Rifle attacks.
The super-composite titanium alloy's ability to absorb impact rendered the bullets ineffective against the Xingtian Type.
This meant the attacks from the two armors behind were entirely ineffective; the Xingtian Type 1 only needed to handle the three opponents in front.
The impressive defense of the Xingtian Type 1 won over everyone, its defense strength far superior to Iron Man Armor.
The combat power displayed by the Xingtian alone was enough to convince Fungus Faction's leaders to upgrade their equipment.
This unfolding scenario was one Jiang Cheng had foreseen, and it was why he directed the Xingtian Type 1 toward close combat tactics.
As long as existing long-range weapons couldn't affect the Xingtian Type, persisting with long-range attacks was pointless.
Given the non-penetrative nature of long-range weapons, relying on close-combat was preferable.
Until there's a breakthrough in long-range weaponry, Jiang Cheng wasn't planning on developing long-range-oriented armor.
Perhaps, only after a significant improvement in long-range weapons will long-range attack armors appear.
The current scenario on the field was progressing as Jiang Cheng had expected, with the Xingtian Type 1 about to break through the opposition's offense and launch its counterattack.
The Xingtian Type's close-combat armor was about to exhibit its power, shocking everyone.
In the testing grounds within the Fungus Faction's base, testing of the new generation humanoid armor continued.
When faced with an encirclement by five opponents, the Xingtian Type chose to endure the long-range attack from behind, opting for a frontal breakthrough of the Bao Country Map.
This choice by the Xingtian Type was undoubtedly correct, focusing on breaking through a single point in a surrounding attack is the best plan.
The two Iron Man Armors providing suppressive fire from behind never anticipated their attacks being rendered ineffective.
So upon realizing their Gauss Rifles were useless, they pulled out their High-Frequency Plasma Battle Blades and charged forward against the Xingtian Type.
Though their reaction was swift, making the correct response instantly,
the Xingtian Type had already launched its attack on their teammate, leaving them too late to assist.
Thus, the Xingtian Type was effectively up against three opponents now, with the two Iron Man Armors meant for distant support on the sides.
The Xingtian Type was exploiting a time gap, trying to defeat the nearest opponent before the Iron Man Armor behind caught up, making it the best counterplan against five opponents.
Only by breaking out of the opponent's encirclement, will there be an opportunity to defeat the opponents separately.
Now the Xingtian was closing in on the foremost opponent; it depended on whether it could break through the Iron Man Armor in front before those behind closed in.
The speed and acceleration of Xingtian Type 1 were faster than Iron Man Armor.
Thus, before the foremost Iron Man Armor could react, Xingtian Type 1 had already advanced, swiftly launching an attack.
The Xingtian Type 1's attack was fierce, its blade swinging in the air toward the opponent's shoulder.
The targeted Iron Man Armor never anticipated such an aggressive attack from the Xingtian Type and was unprepared.
It forcibly altered its attack stance into a defensive posture, albeit clumsy.
The Iron Man Armor under attack raised its arm to block the assault from the Xingtian Type.
But, it was a fraction too slow, the Xingtian Type's arm blade skimming its raised arm, striking its shoulder fiercely.
This strike effectively yielded significant results, inflicting great damage to the Iron Man Armor.
The blade contacted the armor's exterior, generating a shower of sparks due to the violent collision.
Break it!
The Xingtian Type's pilot shouted as the blade hit the opponent, exerting extra force on the wrist, enhancing the strike's power.
