The Ultimate Divine Class-Chapter 653 - 35: Explosive Slaughter, Spit

"Next time I devour a life form, I can't choose something so ugly again... It feels like swallowing a fly..."

Lu Yuan muttered to himself with a complex expression.

After speaking, he closed his eyes and began to silently digest everything from the woman he had just devoured.

This was the second time Lu Yuan had devoured a life form.

The most obvious gain was that the [Devour] skill's flesh devour progress bar had finally increased, by about a tenth.

Then there was the life energy.

Lu Yuan estimated that the life energy contained in a level 4 mechanician was roughly equivalent to the yield from absorbing several dozen tons of waste ore.

"Buzz——"

After absorption, Lu Yuan felt a slight tremor in his mind, and his Spiritual Power increased several times over.

He glanced at the attribute panel.

Indeed, what was originally 29 points after a Break the Limit in the Intelligence Attribute had now successfully broken through to 30 points after a Second Limit Breaking.

The other three Basic Attributes also showed slight increases.

"It's like eating a super nourishing ginsengfruit..."

Lu Yuan's expression was somewhat complicated.

It must be said, after experiencing the benefits of absorbing life forms, it's indeed hard for anyone to resist the temptation of rapidly increasing power, and not to get addicted.

But thinking about it, he was probably the only one having such concerns.

He was the only person who acquired the Devouring Spirit Clan's gifted ability later in life. For normal members of the Devouring Spirit Clan, evolving and growing stronger by devouring other life forms is as natural as survival of the fittest in nature.

Shaking his head, he cast aside the messy thoughts.

Lu Yuan began to organize the memories of the scarred woman.

He learned from her memories that she was from a Star Thief Organization called "Demon Fat Thieves" on Lilva Star.

This Star Thief Organization was almost entirely composed of women, led by a level 7 mechanician nicknamed "Iron Rose."

The "Demon Fat Thieves" were not weak, ranking in the top five among all Star Thief forces on Lilva Star.

Besides their usual acts of robbery, these people would occasionally take jobs akin to mercenaries and assassins, though their reliability was questionable.

For instance, this time, the miners led by Wolff paid the scarred woman and her partner to deal with him and Lu Feng.

But from the scarred woman's memory, it was clear their original plan was to kill him and then capture Wolff and the others, thoroughly exploiting them for remaining value before selling them off to the slave market.

Lu Yuan quickly skimmed through the scarred woman's memories, then proceeded to devour and absorb her scrapped mecha as well.

Besides the scarred woman herself, her mecha was a major acquisition from this battle for Lu Yuan.

It must be said, the Devouring Spirit Clan could undoubtedly be called the universe's foremost resource-utilization masters.

Their defeated or slain opponents leave behind not a trace, every asset perfectly converted into power to enhance the Devouring Spirit Clan themselves.

"Crunch crunch——"

As an entire "Skull Splitting Thug" mecha was devoured by Lu Yuan.

His Mechanical Body also grew further.

Still maintaining the Blue Falcon Type IV Mecha design, but the color became deeper, and the size increased to about 1.5 times its original.

It now appeared much larger than an ordinary Blue Falcon Type IV Mecha.

"Creak creak——"

Lu Yuan slowly stretched his new mechanical body, feeling the improvements in various aspects of its attributes.

Then he slowly drew out two heavy black axes from behind, holding them in his hands.

This body size, paired with the twin giant axes as weapons, now seemed perfectly harmonious, not abrupt at all.

The current form was quite similar to when he transformed into the Elephant God Asura stance, just having achieved level 3 Spiritual Power made controlling this mechanical body seem effortless, making Lu Yuan feel very comfortable.

"I'm back..."

Lu Yuan tilted his head slightly, letting the sunlight piercing through the canopy fall on his cheeks.

"That old feeling... is slowly returning..."

After whispering to himself, Lu Yuan opened his eyes.

Holding twin axes, his stance was calm, and he began to walk step by step toward the direction he came from.

...

"Boom!"

A thick Energy Beam fiercely struck the ground, sending up waves of smoke and dust.

Amidst the smoke and dust, a lithe figure swiftly flashed out, darting toward a certain direction in the distance.

But before the figure could get far, a low, oppressive whooshing sound closely followed.

With a loud "boom," it crashed onto the spot where the figure had been standing.

A large pit over a few meters deep and over ten meters wide appeared on the ground.

Lu Feng appeared in a sorry state at another position, slowly wiping away the slight bloodstains at the corner of his mouth caused by internal injuries, his eyes coldly fixated on the black mecha in front of him holding a Wolf Fang Club in one hand and an Energy Cannon in the other.

"Quite good at dodging, aren't you...?"

The black Skull Splitting Thug tilted its head, looking at Lu Feng, a mocking voice echoing from within the mecha.

"As expected of a Level Five expert.

But why don't you summon your mecha?"

"Is it because you don't have the chance... or do you not have one at all?"

Inside the Skull Splitting Thug mecha, a woman with greasy braids sneered at Lu Feng.

The human-mech battle had lasted until now, and she had more or less figured out her opponent.

Indeed, he was an expert with Level Five Consciousness.

His skills, reactions... all aspects were top-notch.

But this "expert," for some unknown reason, seemed to have not brought his mecha at all.

Otherwise, after such a long time, it's impossible for him not to even try to summon his mecha.

A mechanician without a mecha...

Isn't even as threatening as a toothless tiger.

What should have been a suspenseful battle immediately turned into a one-sided game controlled by the woman.

Her companion was still chasing another target and hadn't returned yet, so the braid woman wasn't in a hurry.

Opportunities to torment a Level Five mechanician expert like this were rare, and she intended to savor it.

"Let me guess... where will you dodge next time?"

The woman raised the Energy Cannon in her right hand, aiming at Lu Feng, the barrel slowly swiveling.

Suddenly.

The barrel lit up, an Energy Cannon beam shot out fiercely.

As expected, Lu Feng's body jumped sharply.

The woman sneered, as Lu Feng's body leapt, she controlled the mecha to lunge forward, swinging the Wolf Tooth Giant Stick with her left hand menacingly towards him.

The scene was like an adult swinging a stick to strike a desperate dog on the run!

However, facing this pincer attack, a premeditated ambush.

Instead of retreating, Lu Feng's body twisted strangely in midair, defying human logic.

His figure narrowly scraped past the sharp points of the club, then shot straight towards the face of the braid woman like an arrow.

"You actually dare to come to me yourself?"

Inside the mecha cockpit, seeing this, the braid woman was surprised and then burst out laughing.

"Idiot, you don't think you can fight a mecha with human strength, do you?"

To the braid woman, it seemed even more ridiculous and laughable than smashing an egg against a rock.

But as she laughed, her pupils suddenly contracted.

She saw Lu Feng leaning forward in midair, making a motion like he was about to vomit towards her.

Immediately, a pitch-black seemingly tinged with dark green water column spurted from Lu Feng's mouth.

The black-green water column hit the head cockpit area of the mecha, instantly breaching the power field, corroding the mecha's exterior with a rapid "sizzle" sound.

"Damn!"

Startled, the braid woman instinctively swung her arms, sending Lu Feng flying.

Her body retreated quickly.

"Cockpit armor severely damaged... Cockpit armor severely damaged..."

A cold electronic synthesized voice rang out in her ears.

With an unpleasant expression, the braid woman used her Spiritual Power to assess the corroded damage on the mecha, unable to help but curse under her breath.

"Damn it, what the hell is this?!"

"A biochemically modified person?!"

If not experienced firsthand, it would be hard to imagine that a dignified Level Four mecha could be damaged by a single "spit" from a person.

If there had been more of that "spit," with stronger corrosive capabilities, it might have broken through into the cockpit, posing a lethal threat to her body.

The thought of the repair costs she would have to bear for the mecha after this battle left the braid woman in a foul mood.

Killing intent surged on her face, any desire to continue the game vanished.

"Just die already!"

Taking advantage of the opponent being disoriented from her previous strike.

The braid woman, with Spiritual Power, twisted the fierce and domineering Skull Splitting Thug body and charged swiftly like a supersonic speed at the small figure on the ground.
