Something unexpected happened. Hong Ye drove the mecha and directly abandoned the protective cover of the quantum pulse. He used the thick mecha armor to withstand the slashing of the white crystal. There was only a "tearing" sound, and firelight spattered. Suddenly, a black smoke erupted from Hong Ye's mecha. The chest popped out. Just as Hong Ye was slightly tilted back by the blow, and Bai JingJing was about to take advantage of the situation to pursue him, Hong Ye suddenly piloted a mecha to grab one of Bai JingJing's arms and ejected a modified hook lock to tightly control Bai JingJing's arm. The driver of White Crystal obviously did not expect that he would do this, but he was only slightly panicked, and then without hesitation, he chopped off the arm that Hong Ye held on to him. Hong Ye's mecha, which had one arm cut off, quickly jumped back and retreated in a burst of electric light and black smoke. The severed mecha arm was still tightly hooked on Bai Jingjing's arm due to the hook lock. Bai Jingjing quickly tried to unhook the hook and take it off. At this moment, the arm suddenly exploded, and a burst of fire and the shock wave caused by the explosion set off a burst of dust. The fire and smoke dissipated, and half of the white crystal mecha was blown up. The destroyed location of the mecha was flashing with "sizzling" light. White Crystal was half kneeling on the ground. Half of the mecha's head had been blown up. The other head was still intact, and one eye was shining with a faint light, and it was trying to restart. Master Hong saw that the other party had temporarily lost the ability to move, and hurriedly shouted to his grandson Wei Lun: "Wei Lun, finish him quickly!" As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Lun, who was waiting for an opportunity to observe from behind, immediately increased his speed and rushed behind the white crystal in the blink of an eye, slashing down with the huge laser sword in his hand with the sound of breaking wind. At this critical moment, the eye of White Crystal with only half of its head flashed red again. The mecha was so seriously injured that it was forced to restart. Feeling the pressure of the execution-like sword above its head, White Crystal dragged its body with only half of its head and half of its upper body and threw it to the side to avoid Willen's attack. He staggered back to his feet, and the white laser sword on his arm protruded again. He swung it forward and blocked Willen's horizontal slash to the limit. Seeing such a pity, Master Hong cursed secretly in the mecha: "Fuck, the Three Knights of the Apocalypse are so perverted!" Seeing that the precarious White Crystal was still holding on for dear life, he knew that he could not delay any longer, and hurriedly entered the battlefield from the rear. Although Mr. Hong only had one hand, they and his grandson attacked the White Crystal who only had half of his upper body, and the victory was already sealed. Just when Wei Lun slashed White Crystal to the ground and was about to retaliate, Hong Ye suddenly felt an extremely blazing energy wave coming from behind him. When he turned around, he saw that the blue mecha Sapphire had regained its ability to move. He was half-crouching, holding an anti-material sniper cannon specially designed to hunt mechas. The moment Hong Ye turned around, the shell had been fired, and the trajectory of the armor-piercing shell was obviously pointing at Willen. Hong Ye immediately rushed towards Willen, and succeeded in pushing Willen away just as the armor-piercing shell was about to hit. Artillery shells exploded in the open space behind them. Willen, who was pushed to the ground, looked at the blazing fire with lingering fear. He cast a grateful look at Mr. Hong. But the next moment, a scene that made him heartbroken happened. A white laser sword pierced the chest of Hong Ye's mecha, where the driver's cab was. When the white thin sword was drawn out, the blood-stained laser sword burned the blood and emitted wisps of water vapor smoke. Hong Ye's mecha fell straight back. Just when he was about to fall to the ground, an unexpected scene happened. His arm shot out a hook again and hooked the white crystal again. The back of the mecha driven by Hong Ye began to flash yellow light. Willen who saw this scene naturally knew that this represented the self-destruction of hidden energy! Ddn
