159: Chapter 159 Deep into enemy territory! Blow them up!

This qingtian mech and Beta Force Field fear nothing under heaven or earth; the only thing they fear is the soul.

Because the soul does not belong to matter in the physical sense.

Furthermore, as a Manipulation Type martial artist, Jones's soul ability was not strong, so as soon as Li Mo's soul etherealization appeared, it scared him half to death.

He no longer had any thoughts of killing Li Mo and his group; he manipulated the qingtian mech and prepared to flee.

But how could Li Mo let him have his way? The next moment, Li Mo's etherealized soul rushed toward the qingtian mech. That high-strength alloy and the so-called force field were like nothing before the etherealized soul, and Li Mo passed straight through them.

Immediately after, the soul pounced directly onto Jones.

Before Jones could even react, he was directly swallowed by Li Mo's soul.

A white mass above his head was devoured by Li Mo's soul, and then Jones's eyes rolled back, his feet kicked up toward the sky, and he dropped dead on the spot!

This is the reason why General Mo Yi said that Li Mo is currently invincible against enemies below the Sixiang Realm just by releasing his soul etherealization.

Even Li Mo himself did not expect that he could present such an overwhelming advantage against enemies in the Sanhe Realm.

Then the group walked over to the crashed qingtian mech and opened the cockpit.

Seeing Jones dead, Wu Yuqing couldn't help but exclaim: "Is this the power of the soul? It really doesn't play by any rules! Cross-realm killing has actually become this easy!"

When Wu Yuqing previously fought against Baal, she was able to gain an advantage in a short time; while her superb swordsmanship was certainly a reason, the bigger reason was that Baal did not have soul power.

If Baal had been like Li Mo, Wu Yuqing would have had absolutely no power to resist.

The power of the soul is no longer something that can be smoothed over by superb swordsmanship.

The other few people in the team gave Li Mo a thumbs up.

"Battalion Commander Li! Amazing!"

Li Mo did not get carried away by this, but modestly said: "He was just a Manipulation Type martial artist; if you take away the mech's power, Manipulation Type martial artists are probably the weakest among all martial artists!"

After speaking, Li Mo looked at the qingtian mech in front of him, and an idea suddenly came to his mind.

"Brothers, do you want to earn some military merit with me?"

Upon hearing the words "military merit," almost everyone's eyes lit up.

"Battalion Commander Li, just tell us; we'll do whatever you want!"

"That's right! Who would complain about having too much military merit!"

Although the mission General Mo Yi assigned was just reconnaissance, Li Mo did not want to make it that simple.

Having finally reached the Baiou Empire's troops, it was only natural to exact some interest before returning.

At this time, Li Mo looked at one of the people in the team and said: "Battalion Commander Jiang Jin, I remember you are also a Manipulation Type martial artist, right? Can you operate this qingtian mech?"

Great Xia also has Manipulation Type martial artists, but Great Xia's Manipulation Type martial artists are generally used to operate machines similar to drones.

This Battalion Commander Jiang Jin was originally selected by Li Mo to operate drones for reconnaissance, but since the Baiou Empire left a qingtian mech here, it could be put to good use.

"Reporting to Battalion Commander Li, I have studied some mech operation courses and should be able to handle it!"

"Good!"

Li Mo nodded with satisfaction, then pointed to a location in the distance within the Baiou Empire's main force.

As a country that focuses on technology, the most important thing in the Baiou Empire's troops is naturally their armory!

Their armory contains a large amount of weapons and equipment; once a war breaks out, that is the most troublesome thing!

However, precisely because of this, the Baiou Empire's security for the armory is very strict, one could even say airtight.

Li Mo originally didn't have any designs on their armory, because the seven of them could never manage to blow up the enemy's armory while clearing out the outer guards.

But now it was different with this qingtian mech. This qingtian mech is the Baiou Empire's latest technology, regarded by the Baiou Empire as a treasure. Li Mo and the others could completely drive the qingtian mech and swagger into the enemy armory.

Thus, a wicked plan was conceived during the group's discussion.

What Li Mo did not know was that at a location far away from them, an old man was watching everything they were doing.

This old man was none other than Li Mo's current direct superior, General Mo Yi.

Zhao Zhenyuan said it was to let Li Mo test his own strength, but how could he be at ease regarding his favorite general?

In case the Baiou Empire didn't play by the rules and adopted a strategy of ganging up on Li Mo, or sent out some Heaven and Earth Realm powerhouses, Li Mo and the others would likely be in mortal danger.

Therefore, Zhao Zhenyuan specially let General Mo Yi follow along.

If there really was an emergency, in the worst-case scenario, General Mo Yi could take Li Mo back to The Military of Great Xia.

General Mo Yi was originally very satisfied with Li Mo's performance, but when he saw that Li Mo had clearly completed the mission but refused to leave, and instead everyone had climbed into the qingtian mech, it made him feel very confused.

"No, what is this kid planning to do? The reconnaissance mission is completed, is he not leaving yet?"

General Mo Yi originally wanted to appear and drag Li Mo back, but he couldn't suppress his own curiosity.

He really wanted to see how big of a disaster Li Mo was preparing to cause by lingering and refusing to leave.

...

Meanwhile, the news of Jones being killed was quickly transmitted to the command post of the Baiou Empire.

"General Hanks, Jones, whom we just sent out to clear the Great Xia reconnaissance unit, has been killed by the enemy! His life signs have vanished! There is absolutely no heat signature left!"

Hearing these words from the messenger, Hanks felt quite puzzled. Jones was Wright's personal soldier, so he knew him, and therefore he was clear about Jones's abilities.

With Jones's Sanhe Realm strength plus the qingtian mech, there was no way he could possibly die at the hands of a group of Liangyi Realm martial artists!

"Did you go to check the scene? What is the situation?"

"Colonel Jones's corpse is exposed in the wilderness, confirmed dead! Also..."

Speaking of this, the messenger's tone paused.

"We did not find Colonel Jones's mech at the scene; that mech of his is suspected to have been taken by the enemy!"

"What!"

Hanks was instantly furious.

He wasn't this angry when he heard Jones had died in battle, but the mech being taken by the enemy made him burn with rage.

Firstly, because the qingtian mech is technology that the Baiou Empire has not yet revealed; once Great Xia learns of it, the secrets of this mech will no longer have any confidentiality, and everyone in Great Xia will be on guard against the Beta Force Field.

Secondly, the cost of the qingtian mech is very expensive; one unit requires an investment of thousands of kilograms of star crystal, and the entire Baiou Empire has only produced about thirty or so, which were originally intended to slaughter the enemy on this battlefield.

The Baiou Empire has many mech pilots, but the number of mechs is very small.

Hanks appeared very distressed, but at this moment he could never have imagined that the enemy, after taking the mech, did not drive it away, but was currently approaching their most important armory!
