Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high!-Chapter 520 - 426 Sweep
The sudden turn of events did not panic Bai E. Although military intelligence on AI was not exhaustive, they had recorded such basic information.
The Golden Age had conducted research on Spiritual Energy early on, and the spiritual energy practitioners from that era had evolved through a chaotic period of development, not all of whom were affiliated with human Federal Organizations. Therefore, there was no shortage of measures to deal with practitioners of spiritual energy.
As for High-Dimensional Walking, which could isolate physical damage from the real world, they had already developed methods to temporarily sever the connection between the high-dimensional space and the real world.
This "Dimensional Bomb" was one of the most violent solutions in their arsenal, and now, it was mastered by the AIs that inherited the technology of the Golden Age.
But it didn’t matter. High-Dimensional Walking was not a critical ability among Bai E’s many capabilities, and it had fulfilled its mission by unexpectedly avoiding a wave of heavy cluster bombings.
With this burst of speed, Bai E had already reached a point considerably close to the factory.
At this distance, if the AIs continued to launch powerful missiles, they would undoubtedly end up damaging their own factory facilities.

As expected, mechanical changes occurred instantly on the walls that were originally just dark steel barriers. Countless oil-slicked machine guns flipped out from below, revealing their ferocious true faces.
"Boom boom boom boom boom!"
The fire from numerous heavy machine guns blanketed the sky, and the dense barrage of fire blocked all of Bai E’s dodging routes.
Even the bullets that missed and hit the ground instantly kicked up mud, and for a moment, the land around Bai E looked like waves in an angry sea, with countless specks of mud churning.
Amidst the densest center, the "clang clang clang clang" sounds of impact were nearly constant.
The metallic storm hitting the Blast Shield, strengthened with Spiritual Energy, sparked off noise like metal clashing, with sparks flying in every direction.
The occasional bullet that breached the Blast Shield’s defense and hit Bai E was stopped by his skin, as tough as reinforced steel and iron.
Deformed bullet casings followed in Bai E’s wake, strewn across the ground.
The shooting trajectories swayed and floundered in their efforts to catch up with the agile shadow.
Watching the terrifying battle unfold on the screen, the four people inside the transport vehicle were utterly stunned, with their mouths agape, at a loss for what to do.
If the dash out of the missile’s aftermath had not yet left a deeply shocking impression,
"What should we do?"
"I have no idea..."
This kind of combat scene surpassed any situation they had previously encountered. The intense and thrilling battlefield left them clueless about where to begin.
Rush in together? They were not the captain, and upon entering, they would be shredded within minutes.
Just stand there watching? It felt wrong to let the captain charge into battle alone...
"Let’s just watch..." Rose pursed her lips, making the decision for the group.
The battle situation was not something they were qualified to engage in. They would wait until Bai E had handled the major issues, and if there really was a need for support or clean-up afterward, that would be their time to step in.
["Lucky Strike" +12.]
The fanboys were powering up.
Bai E was also powering up.
His will was concentrated to the extreme, and the veins on his forehead seemed about to burst.
The bullets appeared to be fighting against his Blast Shield and his body, but when they struck the two augmented by Spiritual Energy, in essence, they were contending with Bai E’s spiritual energy.
As long as the attack level was below a certain threshold, the basic enhancement from spiritual energy was enough to cope, not yet reaching the "superior" level.
But when the attack exceeded the skill’s basic enhancement, any additional resistance would shift to rest on Bai E’s spiritual energy.
The power of spiritual energy was the power of will.
All the bullets striking him were as if they were hitting his soul directly.
Willpower would eventually weaken; even the most resilient soul would gradually languish under relentless assault.

Even if the consumed energy could be quickly replenished by the virtual world, the quality would gradually decline to the point where it could no longer protect against the invading bullets.
He couldn’t let the machine guns keep firing at him! Although they weren’t breaking through his defenses for the moment, the impact from the bullets still prevented him from moving forward quickly.
The continuous, non-stop impacts were even more troublesome than the bombardment of missile clusters.
The distance to the steel barrier seemed just two to three hundred meters, but if he continued to tangle with these bullets, that short span might become an insurmountable chasm.
The thought of testing his limits ceased there, "Heavenly Eye" Spiritual Energy, activate!
The power of spiritual energy was no longer confined to himself and the objects he held. A gray fog instantly spread, enveloping a certain range around Bai E.
Although it was far from the range of the original owner, the same spiritual energy in the hands of an assistant or a charge warrior could yield entirely different results.
The moment Heavenly Eye Spiritual Energy unfolded, all the bullets within the domain became clearly visible to Bai E.
Within this domain, no change in detail could escape his "eye".
While the bullet screen was dense, they did not all arrive at the same time.
There were actually significant gaps between them. However, in the blinding speed of a normal barrage, it was difficult to find an opening.
But within his own domain, everything became actionable.
Not to mention that "Heavenly Eye" was not just for "observation." Everything within the domain would also be controlled by Bai E’s will.
