The Mech Touch novel Chapter 4309

The duel between the Mars and the Neo Amadeus had definitely reached its final phase!

After the ace mechs spent several rounds of bashing each other with their rich and powerful armaments, neither machines were in good shape anymore.

The Mars looked like it had managed to survive a suicide attack. Its once-glorious patterned red armor was cracked and broken in many places, particularly at the lower half of its body.

Neither of its two semi-modular shoulder-mounted gauss cannons were intact. Only cut and broken pieces of barely-recognizable parts were left from the devices that could have once turned combat carriers into derelicts in a couple of salvos.

It had already gotten rid of its transphasic axe and transphasic shotgun after they were damaged in order to lessen its encumbrance.

The ARCEUS System that largely defined the offensive output of the Mars had lost almost half of its output, though at least its intact weapon modules were still in decent condition.

It had also temporarily let go of its sole remaining handheld weapon after using it to intercept the exploding transphasic sword thrown by the Neo Amadeus.

Though the Mars could theoretically finish the fight by relying on its damaged ARCEUS System alone, the ace hybrid mech would have no good way of fending off its adversary's powerful plasma sword without a solid weapon in its grasp!

This was why Patriarch Reginald Cross did not hesitate to drive his Mars to retrieve the damaged but still serviceable Whale-Cutting Saber at all cost!

The transphasic flight system of the Mars did not operate as effectively as before. The spatial shockwaves generated by the exploding transphasic sword had rippled through the frame of the powerful mech and disrupted a lot of phasewater-based functions.

For example, the Abasis Armor no longer offered any transphasic reinforcement that made the Mars so hardly against powerful attacks.

Though the Mars and its ragged Saint Kingdom were still strong enough to ignore the attacks from expert mechs and other lesser machines, the Neo Amadeus still posed a huge threat!

At this time, Saint Jeremiah Gauge was pulling out all of the power he and his ace mech had left.

The earlier fighting heavily consumed the resources he had at its disposal. Not only had he depleted his willpower faster than his opponent, but his ace mech was rapidly consuming whatever energy reserves it had left just by activating its plasma sword!

Fortunately, his ace mech was still in a relatively good condition aside from losing functionality in one of its arms. This gave Jeremiah the confidence that he possessed enough of a buffer to withstand any final outbursts from the Mars while he ended the duel in his victory!

The weight of history drove his willpower to greater heights!

As a scion of the most powerful coalition partner of his state, Saint Jeremiah clearly understood that his actions determined the future of the Friday Colonies and the Gauge Dynasty's ambitions in the Red Ocean.

The lives and livelihoods of millions of colonists huddling on the surface of Pima Prime V were literally praying for his victory.

As a powerful Saint who had already evolved far beyond his mortal roots, Jeremiah was vaguely able to sense the fears, hopes and dreams of these innocent people.

The ace pilot was not able to absorb their desperate energy and use it to power himself up or anything.

However, the awareness that so many of the people under his wing were at risk of facing death or ruination strengthened his conviction! _{freēwēbnovel.com}

His willpower burned even brighter and his Saint Kingdom became even hotter!

As soon as the Neo Amadeus came close enough to the Mars, the latter was already starting to strain from the heat projected by Jeremiah's domain field.

The Mars had already accumulated a lot of heat that its dimensional heatsinks were struggling to drain away!

If not for the excellent reinforcement of its internal components and subcomponents, Patriarch Reginald would have felt a lot more concerned about the state of his mech for the moment.

Fortunately, he understood the state of his ace much better than before. Master Benedict Cortez had paid a lot of attention to the heat tolerance of the Mars as it was a machine that was bound to generate a lot of heat over the course of a battle.

The Mars could withstand its adversary's hot domain field for the time being!

Just as the ace hybrid mech clutched the spinning heavy saber by the hilt, the Neo Amadeus finally arrived and slashed its hot plasma sword onto the vulnerable rear of the Mars!

It was as if a miniature sun in the shape of a rod was about to smash onto a target!

Saint Jeremiah invested the majority of his remaining willpower and other resources into this strike!

Driven by desperation and the need to save his fellow Gaugers, he did not hesitate to muster up as much strength as possible so that he could finish off the Mars in a single blow!

The power of this strike was so great that it was bound to damage the flight system of Reginald's ace mech!

On top of that, with the damaged state of the Cross Clan's ace mech and the malfunctioning of its Abasis Armor, a strike of this magnitude would most definitely be able to deal severe and possibly fatal damage to numerous critical internal parts and systems!

Even if this powerful sword strike did not disable the Mars outright, its condition would definitely deteriorate to the point where the Sundered Phalanx's ranged mech units could finish the job that Jeremiah started.

"YOUR END IS AT HAND!" Jeremiah roared as his opponent was completely at his mercy! "YOUR MECH SHALL BE THE URN TO YOUR ASHES!"

As the plasma sword swung close enough for its amplified heat to begin to scorch the rear of the Mars, a bright blue energy shield suddenly came online.

This energy shield only partially covered the Mars, but this barrier was enough to block the swing of the plasma sword and prevent it from striking the ace hybrid mech!

The Neo Amadeus had put as much thermal and kinetic energy behind this strike as possible, but somehow the often-neglected compact but ultra-powerful energy shield generator managed to hold on long enough to save the Mars!

A fiery explosion engulfed the impact site as the plasma sword and some of its energies rebounded from the energy shield!

The energy shield eventually succumbed from the power of the Neo Amadeus' committed attack, but other than exposing the rear of the Mars to a brief heat wave, the ace hybrid mech managed to escape the worst outcome!

Patriarch Reginald never expected that his duel against Saint Jeremiah would come down to the use of the compact but ultra-powerful shield generator.

He had always considered it to be a redundant safety blanket as the Mars already enjoyed the protection of his Saint Kingdom and the Abasis Armor.

Yet now that both of these resonance-based defensive measures had lost their strength, Reginald found that the energy shield generator that was purely driven by electrical energy had become his life saver!
