Blacksmith: You Are Making Mjolnir For The Forging Exam? - Chapter 535
535 Where’s Chief Engineer Wu?
Wu Mo, who was at the press conference, immediately received news of the sea monsters’ movements.
He narrowed his eyes and immediately realized that the mantis sea monster was very cunning. It intended to launch an attack on the press conference’s venue.
How bold!
How did it know about the press conference?
“Does it have the terrifying ability to obtain information about our activities?”
!!
Wu Mo speculated that it might have many sensitive information capture nodes on its body. It could probably capture ultrasound waves from a distance and analyze all kinds of human interaction.
That was how it learned about the global press conference and the giant weapon that could fight sea monsters.
Therefore, the angry mantis sea monster decided to attack immediately after it received this information.
“This place is very far from the sea. How did it get here?” Wu Mo wondered.
Just then, the ground suddenly exploded about two hundred meters away!
Rumble…
The next moment, a huge mantis sea monster appeared before everyone.
Whoosh!
Underground water gushed out like a flood and caught everyone off guard.
“Heavens! Run, the sea monster is coming!”
They could not believe that a huge mantis sea monster was attacking the venue!
Sea monsters were called that because they usually dwelled in the sea.
However, this creature dared to come on land. It was too bold.
The Vajra Sea Monster and Cerberus-looking monster had been able to come on land because they had sent out their army to sweep the coastal area first.
However, this mantis sea monster appeared just outside the press conference without any backup. What was it planning to do?
Rumble… Boom!
Armed forces quickly moved in, while those at the press conference retreated.
They fired a dense number of missiles, which enveloped the mantis sea monster.
However, it was extremely fast. It flapped its wings and quickly flew several hundred meters despite its huge body.
The shock wave produced when it landed overturned several missile launchers.
“D*mn it! It’s too powerful. How is it so fast with such a huge body?”
Everyone was shocked. The situation before them was so dangerous that it was suffocating.
The mantis sea monster had arrived at a densely populated area, so the destruction caused would be far more terrifying than in the sea!
“No! Evacuate the surrounding area immediately!”
At this moment, a high-ranking officer took charge of this sudden disaster.
He ordered the rear to clear out the area within a thousand-meter radius. No one could stay there.
“This is going to be a bloody battle! Send the high-density weapons over right now!” the commander ordered.
Since it was not a coastal area, there were no pre-installed high-density laser weapons around.
However, it was now proven that this had been the wrong approach since the sea monster could actually drill out of the ground!
Not only could it swim in the sea, but it could also burrow through the ground. It was indeed worthy of being a terrifying creature from outer space!
“Wait, where did Chief Engineer Wu go?” someone asked.
The reporters from all over the world had been safely evacuated. They hid in the security building and observed the surrounding situation in confusion.
The press conference was originally meant to show off the Divine Dragon mech. It was also where they learned that Chief Engineer Wu would be piloting the mysterious mech.
The mantis sea monster was wreaking havoc outside, but Divine Dragon had yet to appear.
While everyone was puzzled, the glint from a saber suddenly descended from the sky!
Everyone looked up in shock and saw the saber falling like a meteor before a huge floor-to-ceiling window.
It was an indescribably fast slash, so fast that it seemed to cut through air. Hence, it left behind a dazzling white light.
It was as if the light of the waning moon was shining on the earth.
Kacha!
The saber fell, and the mantis sea monster let out a heart-wrenching shriek.
Its shriek was as deafening as an airplane’s engine. Everyone widened their eyes and saw that one of the mantis’ wings had been completely cut off.
Boom!
The broken wing fell to the ground, and a huge tremor resounded through the sky. Blood splattered everywhere.
The mantis sea monster twitched in pain and quickly retreated.
Its triangular eyes flashed with fear and hatred as it stared at the huge mech before it.
It was Divine Dragon!
At this moment, Wu Mo was piloting Divine Dragon and staring ahead coldly.
He did not make a move immediately because he was fusing with the Divine Dragon mech.
In a short period of time, Wu Mo quickly took control of the mech and displayed astonishing combat power.
He had severed the mantis’ wings with one slash!
The mantis sea monster’s speed had been amazing largely because of its pair of wings.
The wings’ complex biological structure allowed it to obtain great thrust in the air.
However, now that it had lost one of them, its flying was greatly affected.
It slowed down a lot, and it became difficult for the monster to maintain its balance.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh…
At this moment, the mantis sea monster launched a sudden attack!
Although it had lost the advantage of its wings, its sharp scythes were still life-threatening.
The huge scythes were thick and hundreds of meters long. Every time the monster swung them, they filled the sky with the surrounding sand. It was as if a terrifying storm had swept over the entire battlefield.
Wu Mo appeared calm and collected as he faced the terrifying scythe attack.
He operated the Divine Dragon mech with agility and skillfully avoided one fatal attack after another.
In an instant, the Divine Dragon mech nimbly twisted its body and pulled off a risky move. Like a monkey, it hooked one foot into the ground.
Then, it lifted a huge rock and threw it into the sky.
Boom!
The huge rock flew toward the mantis sea monster, and a trace of mockery as well as disdain could be seen in the monster’s triangular eyes.
It waved its scythes in the air and cut the boulder in half!
However, the moment the boulder shattered, the Divine Dragon mech stretched its hand out, and an incomparably huge iron needle shot forward.
Kacha…
Following a shocking sound, everyone stared at the scene before them with their mouths agape.
This huge iron needle, which was as big as a lightning rod, pierced one of the mantis sea monster’s eyes.
Screech…
The mantis sea monster’s shriek then pierced everyone’s eardrums like a sharp awl.
After its weak spot was severely injured, it retreated frantically and turned to escape toward the beach.
If it could escape into the sea, the mantis sea monster could use the advantage of speed to escape human pursuit.
However, how could Wu Mo let go of this opportunity so easily?
“Hehe, you want to escape? I’m not going to let you!”
Wu Mo’s eyes flashed with ridicule and disdain.
He quickly pushed the control stick and raised Divine Dragon’s speed to the maximum. As a result, it left behind afterimages with each step.
The mantis sea monster had lost a wing, so its speed was obviously affected. It was limping and struggling on the battlefield like a crippled warrior.
Its body was thin and weak, but its overall size was daunting. Its hard bones supported its huge body, like a huge clothes rack.
Despite that, the mantis sea monster’s skeleton had reached its limit, and its center of gravity could no longer keep it stable.
Under such circumstances, how could the mantis sea monster increase its speed again?
