"Mhm!"
Shen Yun Yao nodded, "This Sphinx is a cyborg from the Brad Base, and not just any ordinary cyborg..."
"His body is likely only truly the brain... There are rumors that he injected a special parasitic worm-enhanced serum... The brain can parasitize any person or other animal..."
"I always thought it was just a rumor... Now it seems that this Sphinx can not only parasitize people or animals... He can probably parasitize mechas... or something else..."
Having said that, Shen Yun Yao looked at the debris from the collapse of the massive architectural structure that the Sphinx had controlled.
Meanwhile, Ye Feng's gaze was fixed on the mecha that had contorted and shifted strangely during the battle, "If the Sphinx can parasitize a mecha, then the mecha's abnormal changes just now would make sense... Can this guy modify the host after parasitizing it?..."
"No wonder this person is called a genius mecha pilot who needs no training... After all, controlling one's own body is an innate instinct for everyone..."
Shen Yun Yao let out a sigh. Many of her past doubts were now clear after seeing the Sphinx on the ground.
"Since the Sphinx being a cyborg is true, then... that plan is probably also..."
Shen Yun Yao's words suddenly stopped as a figure flashing with electricity in the sky hurtled towards her. It was Wang Ba Tian.
"Watch out!"
Before Shen Yun Yao could finish speaking, a massive bolt of lightning struck near her and Ye Feng, and Xiao Xiao.
"Boom! ~ Rumble! ~"
"Crackle, crackle~"
A huge explosion and the sound of electricity continued to ring out, with fierce flames erupting. The exposed steel bars of some structures glowed red, bent, and melted at a visible speed.
Ye Feng and the other two leaped away quickly, unharmed. However, the Sphinx's corpse turned to ashes.
"Bang~ Crack~ Crackle!~"
"Rumble! ~ Clang~ Clang!~"
Failing to strike, Wang Ba Tian once again launched an attack at Ye Feng, Xiao Xiao, and Shen Yun Yao. For a time, the sound of electricity, explosions, and metal collisions filled the air, kicking up dust over the entire ruined structure.
"Bang bang!~"
Enveloped in smoke and dust, after a dull collision, Ye Feng, Xiao Xiao, and Shen Yun Yao were all sent flying backward, creating distance from Wang Ba Tian.
"Hey, old man, you t-"
"City Lord!"
Seeing Shen Bo Tian on the ground among these people, someone exclaimed with concern.
Ye Feng glanced around and saw that the reinforcements, judging by their attire, were likely from the Guards. There were about twenty of them, all with restrained spirits, appearing to be quite strong. They held various weapons, their gazes fixed on Old Ghost.
"Heh, a few more to send to their deaths!"
Old Ghost sneered. The next second, his body turned into an afterimage and flew towards those people.
"Whoosh! Whoosh~ Huhu~!"
Without any discernible movement from Old Ghost, who had completely transformed into a shadowy mass, he rushed towards the reinforcements at extreme speed. The bullets, artillery, and arcane energy attacks from the Guards passed directly through Old Ghost, not even slowing him down.
"Crack crack crack!~"
After the shadowy form of Old Ghost passed through the bodies of the Guards, one by one, their bodies instantly turned black and rapidly shattered into countless small pieces, scattering on the ground...
In a few breaths, all the reinforcements had become small piles of black dust...
"What?"
Shen Yun Yao was shocked by this sight. The people who had just arrived were not ordinary Guards; they were quite capable, and several had even taught her things.
"Bang bang bang!~"
At this moment, a loud gun went off. It was Ye Feng firing at Old Ghost, who was flying towards him like a phantom.
This time, Ye Feng was not using ordinary firearms but an arcane energy rifle. However, it unfortunately passed through Old Ghost as well.
But Ye Feng did not stop in disappointment; he continued to fire.
Seeing this, Shen Yun Yao formed a hand seal and instantly unleashed countless water-attribute arcane energy arrows, striking Old Ghost like a torrential rain.
Old Ghost still did not dodge or evade. The bullets from Ye Feng's arcane energy rifle and Shen Yun Yao's water-attribute arcane energy arrows all passed directly through him.
"Firearms, artillery, arcane energy... Neither the five main attributes nor the rare ice attribute have any effect on this guy..."
Upon seeing this, Ye Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, put away his arcane energy rifle, and gripped the Tang dao in his hand.
"Huh? What?"
Suddenly, Ye Feng's expression changed.
Because Old Ghost, who had been heading straight for him, did not choose to attack him. Instead, he abruptly changed direction and flew towards Xiao Xiao, who was not far away.
Several pitch-black spikes rapidly materialized on Old Ghost's hand and instantly stabbed towards Xiao Xiao...
