The Undying Mecha Emperor-Chapter 179 Biomech Army
My red energy is a part of me, and I can control it the way I control my other body parts even though it is in energy form.
How exactly I am able to control it, I don't know for certain. All I know is that wherever I will it to go, in whatever manner I want it to go, it goes.
When I pointed at that poor Horse Gavarel and willed every single of ounce of my red energy to crash into it at maximum velocity with the intention of crushing and completely obliterating it with extreme prejudice, well…
That was exactly what happened.
But instead of only obliterating the machine parts of the biomecha as I expected it to, it obliterated the entire Horse Gavarel!
Metal, flesh, bone… Everything.
One moment it was there, and another moment it was an underwater cloud of blood, bone dust and metal particles.
And the shocking thing was… My red energy absorbed everything!
My jaw dropped as I sensed the vitality of the Horse Gavarel Biomech stream towards me and enter my body at near lightspeed.
"What the hell…" I breathed out in confusion.
Bruce Pang and the Ancestor were monsters in the battlefield, and one of the reasons that they were monsters was of course because of their monstrous observational abilities.
Nothing much escapes their notice.
And the way that particular Horse Gavarel just exploded into bloody dust and then quickly disappeared was something that stuck out like a sore thumb to them both.
"You can devour life forms too?" Bruce Pang asked me in amazement. However, one look at my stunned face told him clearly that I was as, if not more, shocked as he was.
It took several seconds before the effects of absorbing the life energy of the 2.5 meter tall Horse Gavarel could be felt. But when it did…
"Power…!!" I gasped in wonder!
Every cell within me felt like they just got upgraded! And without a shred of doubt, I just know that I was able of punching out and dealing at least ten times more damage than before! f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶
Don't get me wrong, I was already plenty strong before that due to the enhancements I received from the mechas I devoured.
But those enhancements merely affected the strength of my skin and my bones. It was like a human suddenly putting on a high tech suit of iron and gaining access to physical power that he could only previously imagine.
However, absorbing that Horse Gavarel was like completely upgrading the core of my physical being.
My endurance, my vitality and just the sheer life energy that I was giving off completely rose to a higher level.
All of my organs and their functions more than tripled in their effective strength, and as a human being, I had officially evolved into a higher life form.
There was no other way to describe what happened to me.
And with the successful devour of the Horse Gavarel, all of the secrets within that race were laid bare before me.
The memories of that particular Horse Gavarel flashed rapidly and randomly in my head. Within a minute, I had an extremely clear picture of that Horse Gavarel's life.
And in that Horse Gavarel's life, one glaring fact stood heads and shoulders above everything else in its life.
"Alien technology." I said softly as I held on to one particular image from the Gavarel's memories.
It was a massive wreckage that was mostly buried within the ocean bed. The Horse Gavarels had managed to unearth a small pod not far from the wreckage and triggered some sort of inheritance handover that gave them a flood of technological inspirations.
Those inspirations had led to the rapid development, production and implementation of the biomech enhancement on the entire race using the raw materials they salvaged from thousands of half destroyed mechas and drones.
However, what caught my attention wasn't the millions of biomechs that the Horse Gavarels had amassed.
It was the image of the leader of the Horse Gavarels, a particularly massive beast almost fully covered in black and menacing mecha armor.
And glowing a deep shade of red on its chest, was a strikingly familiar mecha core.
"Is that… Devour? Could there be two Devours?" I asked the Ancestor hesitantly.
"Another Devour?" The Ancestor's face fell and grew extremely dark even as the attacks from the thousands of Horse Gavarels continued unabated.
They seemed content to fire at us from afar for the time being.
I searched the Horse Gavarel's memories frantically for more details on their leader, but for all my efforts, I found nothing.
The Horse Gavarel I devoured was far too low ranking to have many interactions with their leader and as such, it didn't get to see him in action.
"I need to devour another one." I finally decided grimly and laid my eyes on the biggest and baddest looking Horse Gavarel.
I pointed at him, and once more, my red energy charged at him with unstoppable power!
Poof!
He crumbled into a mass of bloodied flesh as metal particles appeared and surged towards me.
I frowned deeply at the sight.
My mecha devour succeeded, but I failed to break down the physical body of the Horse Gavarel!
I willed my red energy to attack the lump of flesh and break it down into absorbable particles, but somehow, nothing happened. f𝒓𝑒e𝙬𝒆𝚋𝘯૦𝘷𝐞𝑙.c𝑜𝐦
My red energy floated right over the lump of flesh like a hand waving at nothing.
"Interesting." The Ancestor merely nodded lightly. "Keep going, and let's see what you can get."
"He's right." I immediately realized. "It's probably a numbers game. The more I devour, the higher the chances I can somehow trigger that devour of a Horse Gavarel!"
However, I was also extremely clear on another thing. It was not just a numbers game, it was also a time game.
"By the way, the Horse Gavarels have more than a million Biomechs in their army. This bunch of Biomechs right here are just one of their Battalions that happen to be stationed in this area." I said to the two of them casually.
