Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy-Chapter 1440 - 175: Iris Conspiracy

Capítulo 1440: Chapter 175: Iris Conspiracy

Finally, Mu Fan left.

The two walked side by side, and at this moment, their graceful backs almost made Miller give his blessing, only to follow with clenched teeth, punching the ground repeatedly.

“Make you a good person!”

“Good person!”

“Good, your sister!”

Miller was in tears.

At this moment, the trauma to his soul far exceeded the physical harm Orsde had caused him earlier.

What should have been a beautiful romance was mercilessly cut short.

Miller bit open the wooden cork of the reagent, pouring it directly into his mouth.

“A bit bitter… Why don’t I feel anything?”

“Hmm, there’s a burning sensation in my stomach now, is it starting to heal?”

“No… my stomach hurts.”

Miller’s face turned slightly pale as he picked up the second Bai’s Medicine, carefully observing it.

“The base is a self-injection needle, please remove the protective ring before use…”

At that moment, Mr. Miller, the handsome eldest son of Grand Duke Alfred, had an extremely colorful expression.

It turns out it’s an injectable medicine, which he had consumed orally.

This kind of low-level mistake is simply…

“Ah!!——–“

…

A resounding roar came from behind.

“Could it be that he encountered danger?”

Mu Fan and Lu Qingxue both stopped, exchanging glances.

But when they realized that the shout “ah” lasted for a full thirty seconds, and even included two breaths in between, making it oddly captivating…

Mu Fan shrugged, “It should be fine.”

“Hmm.” Lu Qingxue nodded gently.

“The ruins are becoming increasingly disorderly, we must leave quickly.” After passing through the tropical rainforest, their eyes met a densely packed array of beams.

Colorful beams were chaotically moving at this moment.

The conspicuous light was clearly a warning of danger.

Mu Fan lowered his gaze at the scale in his hand, which was getting hotter, then looked up toward the Central Snow Mountain, becoming clearer in the distance.

“The ancient relic with a high energy reaction is just ahead.”

“If you find the ancient relic, grab it first and leave the ruins through the white beam.”

“Now, let’s move forward.”

With Lu Qingxue out of danger, he could now focus all his energy on the upcoming battles.

Having endured two days and nights, the upcoming battle for the ancient relics would undoubtedly become heated.

As for Orsde not revealing any information before his death, Mu Fan wasn’t too disappointed, or perhaps this outcome was expected.

The opponent was never going to disclose the so-called plane corridor, an invading race that quietly infiltrated human society, wouldn’t expose their base so easily.

Furthermore, when the opponent wanted to deceive them, Black had already proposed a solution.

Since they had discovered the Saint Luo Clan’s invasion, and the Saint Luo Clan’s infiltration of human society was straightforward—by using parasites.

The characteristics of parasites were very distinct, as puppets’ language and actions hugely changed from before.

They became awkward, stiff, requiring fresh flesh or high-energy bodies to consume.

These conditions could completely serve as critical nodes for big data screening.

Black, although unable to control the Central Light Computer of each planet, could easily open a backdoor in the city monitoring system to analyze people’s actions.

Utilizing the interstellar network spread across the universe, Black was fully confident in screening out potential hidden puppet bodies within a certain range, and then by monitoring the journeys of these puppet bodies, they could further determine the Saint Luo Clan’s movement trajectories and activity areas.

Once the area of highest activity was locked in, the most precise investigation could commence.

At this time, the Shadow Fleet would be mobilized.

The Saint Luo Clan never expected that what was merely an accidental encounter at the ruins would lead someone to entirely lock their target on them.

Agasura Qi, the strong man related to Mu Fan’s lineage, left his trails for his son in this manner.

For two Martial Arts Grandmasters, navigating through the beam array wasn’t too challenging.

After the battle on Capital Star, Mu Fan, having ignited his life potential, bore a maturity absent in his peers. When he was thinking, his determined profile appeared even more cold.

Lu Qingxue treaded silently, enjoying the times she glanced back unexpectedly, seeing Mu Fan contemplate. That look was earnest, serene, imbued with an inexplicable allure.

Mu Fan had no idea of the tenderness in Lu Qingxue’s eyes, nor did he know what this unparalleled Valkyrie was thinking at that moment.

Lu Qingxue moved her gaze from Mu Fan’s face back to the overlapping beams before them, with a faint smile in her eyes.

Her interest in the ancient ruins had always been zero from start to finish.

But after Mu Fan joined, she gained motivation and a goal.

She only wished to see that the people beside her wouldn’t be troubled by trifles, doing her utmost to help him, that was the happiest thing.

After the two ran for an hour and then suddenly stopped in a natural cave tunnel.

Two warriors, with iris flowers embroidered on their collars, guarded each side of the tunnel’s end.

Behind them…

Was no longer the blazing desert.

Replaced by a vast expanse of azure ice crystals, stretching from the tunnel exit to the end of their sight, linking with the white snow.

The ice crystal-paved ground had no longer the chaotic beams.

Between heaven and earth, everything was pure.

As if it were a paradise.

Both warriors raised their heads simultaneously, one around 2 meters tall, with dark skin and dreadlocks, holding a saber roughly 1.5 meters long in hand. Looking at the fine patterns on the blade and the special construction of the hilt.

It seemed to be a high-frequency blade, but without energy activation, it was nothing more than a more resilient weapon.

The other had a huge skull tattooed on his face, with a bone chain hanging from his left ear, holding a heavy hand cannon as thick as a small leg.

At their feet lay three unidentified corpses.

With a glance, Mu Fan could determine that the barely dried blood clearly indicated… a battle not long ago.

As their eyes met, both “Dreadlocks” and “Skull Head” looked at Mu Fan and Lu Qingxue with bloodthirsty eyes.

“Advance, you die!”

Seeing Mu Fan’s War Armor, their pupils couldn’t help but flicker, slightly shifting their feet, appearing to assume an attacking posture, though somewhat cautiously.

Mu Fan’s gaze gradually turned icy.

“Iris… your layout is quite grand.”

“Sigler Palm… where is he!”

Mu Fan’s Dark Gold Short Stick slowly began to spin, and with a buzz, the green Ghost Energy Light Blade activated.

With each step Mu Fan took, the air in the cave grew increasingly oppressive.

“You actually know the Young Master.”

[Skull Head] grinned, revealing sharp yellow teeth. His arm muscles trembled lightly, creating an instant blur.

Bam!

A circle of fierce shock waves rippled from him.

The piercing sound like a tornado roared inside the cave.

This sound seemed like thunder exploding, or the merge of countless gunshots in an instant.

When the muzzle was raised to fire, Mu Fan finally saw the honeycomb-like muzzle spitting a dense fire.

This was clearly a dense array scaled down hundreds of times!

A torrent of barrage fired in that single shot.

In the narrow cave, there was no escaping this attack.

The extremely shrewd [Skull Head] didn’t give them a chance to talk but launched an attack first.

At that moment, Mu Fan fiercely pulled Lu Qingxue into his embrace, turning his back.

The Ghost Energy Heart began to crazily overflow through the Dragon Rider War Armor’s Energy Core.

His eyes, at this moment, one blue and one green.

Bam, bam, bam, bam!

A shield composed faintly of hexagonal light blue energy frames suddenly appeared behind Mu Fan.

As the high-speed metal bullets penetrated the surface of the shield, blue sparks emerged and extinguished instantly.

Due to the barrage of bullets shot like a rainstorm, Mu Fan’s back was almost set ablaze in that moment.

The body of [Skull] was pushed back by the strong recoil, sliding over a meter away.

Mu Fan took a step forward, deeply sinking into the soil, firmly protecting Lu Qingxue!

The attack from this shot took no more than two seconds from the lift of the hand to the shooting.

But for Mu Fan, he endured hundreds of hits.

Utilizing his Ghost Energy shield to neutralize hot weapon attacks is a unique combat skill of the Holy Hall Knight.

This is also the greatest reliance of the Holy Hall Knight to traverse the interstellar after emerging from the Ghostly Domain!

However, behind this seemingly overpowered combat skill, a massive amount of Ghost Energy is required.

Passively defending against attacks consumes far more than actively attacking!

At this moment, Mu Fan even felt a sense of hunger from his blood.

His body was issuing him a reminder.

“Courting death!”

Mu Fan turned around coldly.

He raised his left hand.

In front of his palm, a rotating blade wheel flashed almost simultaneously.

Mu Fan’s five fingers clenched tightly.

Zzz~

Brilliant sparks bloomed in his palm.

Boom!

Amidst the scattering sparks, the blade wheel was instantly crushed.

After being attacked twice in succession, Mu Fan’s rage was completely ignited.

But the two did not attack further, leaving only their backs to Mu Fan.

The two leaped!

In an instant, they jumped out of the cave.

“Can you escape?”

Mu Fan’s left foot stomped on the ground, and the rock let out a groaning protest.

Kneeling—

Bang!

His whole body instantly twisted and shot out like a shadow.

Mu Fan was about to charge out and kill the two.

“Stop!”

But at this moment, Lu Qingxue suddenly shouted a word, stabbing the Snow Building Sword onto the ground, then sweeping backhand.

A stone shot out rapidly, seemingly intending to stop Mu Fan.

Boom.

Mu Fan reversed and streaked off the ground.

Mu Fan stopped short at the edge of the cave’s opening.

Then the stone shot by Lu Qingxue also hit his body, making a crackling sound.

Just as Mu Fan was about to ask what’s happening, a light blue beam swept past the cave’s opening like a gliding blade edge.

The stone and dust in the air struck by Lu Qingxue.

Turned into shimmering ice crystals upon contact with the light blue beam, dropping vertically onto the ground.

They shattered into powder with a crisp sound.

In Mu Fan’s view, [Skull] and [Dreadlocks] were rapidly moving forward on snowboards.

They seemed aware of the moment when the beam flashed.

As if they could control the beam from just a moment ago.

Mu Fan looked down and noticed an unremarkable protruding rock.

Specifically, it resembled an unpolished jade stone.

There were visible gaps around it.

This must be a kind of mechanism.

[Another relic?]

Seeing Mu Fan abruptly stop at the cave’s entrance, Lu Qingxue’s heart settled instantly.

She took a few steps to Mu Fan’s side, “I can sense subtle temperature changes. The moment they jumped out, an extremely cold area formed at the cave’s entrance.”

“Either an extreme freeze field or some kind of extreme freeze weapon.”

Fortunately warned, Mu Fan gave Lu Qingxue a grateful look.

“They seem to have recognized me, the operable blue beam was deliberately triggered, and they had already prepared their escape tools.”

“This means Sigler Palm must be ahead, and he must be planning something huge!”

“No matter if the plan is good or bad, or whether it involves us, I must settle the score with him!”

Mu Fan stared at the Iris Warriors who were only black dots now in the distance, speaking indifferent.

“It’s safe now, we can pursue them.”

Lu Qingxue scanned the surroundings with her beautiful eyes for a moment, nodding gently.

The scales in Mu Fan’s hand had already begun to heat up noticeably.

This indicated that in the front, there must be a kind of high-intensity energy that made the scales extremely attentive, which must be the most precious relic in these ruins!

“Follow me, and be cautious of everything.”

After Mu Fan reminded, he leaped forward.

Under the feet of the Dragon Rider War Armor, it seemed to cling to the ice, without the slightest slip.

Lu Qingxue followed the leap.

She seemed to adapt extremely well to such an environment, seamlessly traversing smoothly without transition.

The two exchanged a glance and started rushing forward.

Outside the cave, on the icy crystal ground, at the foot of the Big Snow Mountain, in the boundless world, four people accelerated simultaneously towards the front.

…

“Damn it, how are they so cautious!”

[Skull] cursed. When they recognized Mu Fan, they didn’t plan on a frontal assault.

Utilizing these deadly relic mechanisms is the best way to trap the opponent.

But why did they abruptly stop at the cave entrance?

Such an astonishing combat instinct is terrifying.

“They’re catching up and even accelerating, the ice has no effect on them.”

[Dreadlocks] glanced back and saw the figure of Mu Fan in his Dragon Rider War Armor moving like a specter over the ice, causing no obstruction at all.

“Intercept them with your dense array hand cannon to alert those ahead and coordinate with us to counter-attack.”

“We absolutely cannot delay Young Master Sigler’s big plan!”

After a brief discussion, [Skull] flicked his wrist, tossing his arm back once more.

Boom!

A dense array of fire burst like a thousand stars.

In this wide world, the shot seemed like a brilliant comet.

Mu Fan quickly grasped Lu Qingxue’s hand.

This time, Lu Qingxue astutely understood Mu Fan’s intention, and with mutual force, the two spun and avoided horizontally in an instant. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

“Fu-ck!”

[Skull] cursed, discarding the dense array hand cannon in his hand.

“We’ve reached the snow slope, prepare.”

[Dreadlocks] saw the scene ahead, excitement and murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

The Iris highland special guards had already prepared an ambush.
