Chapter 2086 - 1613: God’s Forbidden Zone (Part 3)

The cracks close by occasionally leaked white light, striking the giant shield.

The cracks on the front of the giant shield grew more numerous, and parts of it had already fractured.

"Damn it!"

Kathuler cursed under his breath, then threw the giant shield away, which immediately shattered and was sucked into the cracks.

It wasn’t just Kathuler’s Shield that couldn’t hold; Attic’s exoskeleton device was also at its limit, with pieces of the exoskeleton breaking and falling off.

Not long after, the energy barrier device installed by Adomo and Coret also reached its limit, and the energy barrier completely shattered.

Seeing this, the public communication channel sporadically echoed with a couple of comments.

"It seems like Lord Coret’s external devices are failing."

"It’s okay if they fail, they’ve held out for so long."

"That’s true, they’ve held out for three hours."

"So it seems like there might be a chance this time."

"There’s hope."

...

Time slipped away slowly, and soon another hour passed. The pressure on Kathuler and the others grew ever greater, their stance outerwear constantly shaking, on the verge of breaking.

On the contrary, Mad Eye Rhenhok’s mixed position outerwear remained exceptionally resilient, naturally thanks to Xiao Shi’s continuous supply of strength support.

"Xiao Shi, can you still hold on?"

Su Mo asked gravely.

"No need for you to worry, I will speak up if I can’t endure it."

Xiao Shi replied with pride.

"I see."

Su Mo didn’t say much more and turned his head slightly to check if Kathuler and the others had retreated.

He found that the group was still holding on, so he took a deep breath and continued to endure.

Unconsciously, another forty minutes passed.

Coret, piloting the Mecha, continued to move forward, enduring tremendous tearing forces, yet there was no trace of fear on his face, only a hint of a ruthless smile.

He would not lead the retreat unless the exploration reached its limit this time.

He wanted to keep applying pressure on Su Mo and the others; seeing he himself hadn’t retreated, they were likely to persist until the end.

If they couldn’t hold and died inside, that would be perfect.

...

In fact, Coret’s guess was spot on.

At this moment, cracks appeared on the thick armor of the V-series Biological Mecha Destroyer.

Inside the cockpit, Kathuler’s forehead veins were bulging.

Rationality told him it was almost time to evacuate, because he had delved too deep, and getting out would take a long time.

But glancing at Coret and the others, who were still exploring, he felt defiant inside, convinced he wasn’t inferior to them. So, he pressed on, continuing forward.

From afar, Su Mo watched the Mechas surging forward, feeling a bit troubled, as each one was so fierce, leaving him with no choice but to accompany them to the end.

In a blink, twenty-three minutes passed.

Kathuler, suppressed by the terrifying tearing force, found it hard to breathe, clearing his mind somewhat.

His expression changed constantly, then he halted the Mecha, preparing to retreat.

At this moment, he froze, spotting a seemingly crack-free area in the distance.

Seeing this, Kathuler’s expression fluctuated, uncertain, but he finally decided to risk it.

"Blackening!"

A terrifying black aura emerged, causing the Mecha’s power to surge, reconstructing the AT Stance Outerwear. Then he charged toward that area of starlight space.

However, as Kathuler approached that area of starlit space, he suddenly realized that the surrounding cracks were highly concentrated, and the tearing force increased dramatically.

The pressure Kathuler endured suddenly soared several times, severely distorting the Mecha’s AT Stance Outerwear.

"Ah!"

Kathuler roared, forcefully breaking through.

Meanwhile, in a pitch-black room.

A white prompt box suddenly appeared out of thin air.

"Warning: Unknown intruder detected in the God’s Forbidden Domain."

"Deactivating sleep command."

"Artificial Intelligence, God’s Eye (Avatar) awakening in progress."

"Activating defense system..."

"Defense system successfully activated."

...

"Scanning the intruder."

"Note: Scan successful, target identified as a subsidiary of the Aste Empire (Note: Formerly known as the Black Light Empire), holding secondary-level clearance."

"Note: Insufficient clearance."

"Note: Performing clearance inquiry..."

...

In the dark expanse of the starry sky, as Kathuler broke through, the pressure on his body suddenly vanished.

Surprised, he lifted his head to look around, only to find the surrounding starry sky completely black, with nothing visible.

As Kathuler’s expression flickered unpredictably, a system prompt suddenly appeared before him.

"Please present authorization clearance."

Kathuler was dumbfounded seeing this prompt box, unable to process it for a long time.

"What’s going on? What is this all about?"

"Warning: Insufficient clearance, please present authorization clearance."

The prompt box reappeared with an update.

Kathuler frowned, continuously checking his Mecha, wondering if there was a system error.

At this moment, the prompt box turned red.

"Second warning: Please immediately present authorization clearance."

"What damn authorization clearance, I don’t have it!"

Frustrated, Kathuler replied heatedly.

Then, the prompt box disappeared.

Meanwhile, in the pitch-black room, a crimson virtual prompt box emerged.

"Authorization recognition failed, automatically determining target as an intruder, executing eradication protocol!"

"Eradicate!"

...

At this moment, seven terrifying beams of light shot out of nowhere, closing in on Kathuler without dead angles.

Kathuler sensed the danger abruptly, operating the Destroyer Mecha to execute extreme evasive maneuvers, narrowly dodging the attack.
