277: Chapter 278 "Order Wars" [Clone City]: [Gear Boy's] Giant Mech

Gear Boy looked at the "force field generator" in his arms, cobbled together from various mechanical parts. Sparks were constantly flying from its surface, and white smoke with a burnt smell wafted from the gaps. He looked up at the flickering "defense force field" above him, which was stoutly protecting him amidst the surging and rolling flesh. The bronze gear embedded in the "force field generator"—the Dream Spirit [enhanced gear]—had its surface change from bronze to crimson due to the continuous consumption of [Dream Power] to maintain an "overload state" and enhance the defense effect of the "force field generator." Intense heat radiated from the small [universal gear], even burning Gear Boy's palm.

After watching the war-level contest between the terrifying wave produced by Carnival Clown's colorful confetti cannons and the madly devouring surging flesh of the Beholder, a drop of cold sweat trickled down Gear Boy's sideburns. He muttered to himself, "They're all monsters! It's one thing for the Bosses of the [Dream Mission World] to be monsters, but how are there such perverted monsters among the Hosts too!"

Seeing the wave of colorful confetti go from constantly transforming dark red flesh to being completely swallowed by it, and then watching Carnival Clown make a comical exit from a black magic hat in mid-air above the flesh prison, a sudden feeling of being watched made Gear Boy's hair stand on end.

The surging dark red flesh outside the "defense force field" began to grow upward, intending to completely envelop the "defense force field." Just as Gear Boy noticed the changes around him, the dark red flesh had already finished the envelopment.

At the original location of the "defense force field," a writhing hemispherical mass of flesh constantly contracted, with surrounding dark red flesh continuously merging into it. A small mountain of flesh slowly formed and kept growing taller.

Protected by the "defense force field," Gear Boy looked at the surrounding dark red flesh and the warning lights flashing on the "force field generator's" display screen. His expression became extremely grim.

Gear Boy took a deep breath, patted his chubby belly, and sighed. He reached out and removed the Dream Spirit [enhanced gear] embedded in the "force field generator."

The Beholder looked at the writhing mountain of flesh growing taller behind the [Clone Tower]. Its crimson eye showed no hint of contempt; after all, none of the sacrifices who could survive until now were simple characters.

As expected, as the dark red mountain of flesh suddenly dropped several meters in height, a laser beam shot out from within it. Sweeping from top to bottom, it split the entire mountain of flesh in half. A giant mecha, seemingly cobbled together from mechanical parts, flew straight from the base of the dark red mountain of flesh into the sky.

In the cockpit of the giant mecha, Gear Boy wiped the cold sweat from his face and said luckily, "Fortunately, I collected enough mechanical parts before~ As expected, mecha are a man's dream! Thanks for the hard work, [enhanced gear], just hold on a bit longer!"

The crimson [enhanced gear] embedded in the giant mecha's left-hand laser cannon flickered with red light, as if it understood Gear Boy's words.

Seeing the flesh tentacles growing frantically upward from the ground of flesh below, aiming at the giant mecha, the Dream Spirit [enhanced gear] flew out of the slot on the left-hand laser cannon and embedded itself into the high-frequency vibration longsword in the right hand.

Assisted by the built-in intelligent System, the giant mecha smoothly dodged through the gaps of dozens of giant flesh tentacles, occasionally using the high-frequency vibration longsword in its right hand to sever the flesh tentacles blocking its path.

The Beholder on the throne of flesh couldn't help but let out a curious "Eh?": "Eh? This is... the Jack Mecha 2026? Is it technology stolen by hacking into the [Clone Tower]'s database? Although it's the latest model from the Ultra-Era Tech Empire, a mecha temporarily cobbled together from mechanical parts won't last long~"

Then, the Beholder controlled the crimson giant eye at the top of the [Clone Tower] to fire a thick dark red laser beam, instantly engulfing the giant mecha where Gear Boy was.
