Chapter 596 Breaking the Deadlock and Obtaining the Key
Lin Yu stared anxiously at the energy barrier crackling with electric arcs before him, large beads of sweat rolling down his forehead. Behind him, the masked man's maniacal laughter and the heavy footsteps of the mechanical puppets mingled together, like an invisible net of death, forcing them into a desperate situation.
"There must be a way..." Lin Yu murmured softly, his gaze shifting between the light and shadow on the barrier and the wall, trying to find a solution from those mysterious images. Ellie's eyes were also red with anxiety, her hands flying across the scanning device, constantly analyzing the information hidden in the light and shadow.
“The energy composition of this barrier is too complex; I can’t find a starting point for it right now,” Ellie said, her voice trembling with anxiety. Lin Yu took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, his mind racing as he recalled every detail since entering the ruins.
Just then, a mechanical puppet swung a huge battle axe at Lin Yu. Lin Yu dodged to the side, the axe grazing his clothes, the powerful gust of air sending his hair flying. A thought struck Lin Yu; he realized that the energy fluctuations from each puppet's attack seemed to cause the barrier to tremble slightly.
"Listen up, everyone!" Lin Yu shouted. "Concentrate your firepower on the barrier, and at the same time lure the mechanical puppets to attack us. Use the energy fluctuations generated by their attacks to disrupt the barrier!" The team members immediately understood his intention and raised their weapons, unleashing a barrage of fire at the energy barrier.
As Xiao Wang fired his gun, he loudly provoked the mechanical puppets, prompting them to launch a series of attacks. In an instant, laser beams, energy blasts, and the puppets' attacks collided, causing energy to surge and sparks to fly throughout the ruins. Under the dual energy impact, the barrier began to flicker, and tiny cracks appeared on its surface.
Upon seeing this, the masked man's expression changed drastically. He roared and ordered the Dark Organization soldiers to intensify their attack, attempting to stop Lin Yu and the others. The Dark Organization soldiers fired wildly, bullets raining down, forcing Lin Yu and the others to divert their attention to dodge and return fire.
"I can't hold on much longer! Why won't this barrier break?" Xiao Wang shouted, his voice filled with despair. Lin Yu gritted his teeth, "Just a little longer! We've found a way! Victory is just around the corner!"
Just as everyone was about to be exhausted, with a crisp cracking sound, the energy barrier finally shattered. Lin Yu and the others didn't even have time to cheer before rushing towards the stone platform where the key was placed.
The masked man realized the situation was dire and rushed forward desperately, trying to snatch the key. Lin Yu dodged in front of him, and the two instantly engaged in fierce close combat. With his agile movements and unwavering will, Lin Yu repeatedly deflected the masked man's attacks and counterattacked.
"If you want to take the key, you'll have to get past me first!" Lin Yu roared, delivering a heavy punch to the masked man's chest. The masked man staggered back a few steps, but quickly regained his balance, his eyes filled with resentment and madness.
Meanwhile, the team members engaged in a final, fierce battle with the Dark Organization soldiers and mechanical puppets. Ellie skillfully evaded enemy attacks using the terrain to her advantage, while simultaneously seeking opportunities to strike at the enemy's weaknesses; Xiao Wang, on the other hand, controlled heavy weapons, suppressing the enemy over a large area.
In the midst of the fierce battle, Lin Yu seized an opening in the masked man's defenses, lunged forward, and slammed him to the ground. Then, he swiftly rushed towards the stone platform and grabbed the key that radiated golden light.
"We got the key!" Lin Yu shouted excitedly. Hearing this, the team members' morale soared, and they fought even more fiercely and fearlessly. Under their tenacious resistance, the dark organization soldiers and mechanical puppets gradually couldn't hold out and began to retreat.
Seeing that all was lost, the masked man glared fiercely at Lin Yu and led the remaining soldiers away from the ruins. Lin Yu and the others had no energy to give chase; they collapsed to the ground, exhausted, overwhelmed with the joy of surviving a close call.
However, they knew this was just the beginning. Two more keys remained to be found, and the dark organization certainly wouldn't give up easily. What would they encounter next on this mysterious planet? And would they be able to successfully collect all three keys and protect the planet's mysterious energy?
