The Mech Touch novel Chapter 4811

Chapter 4811 Cat and Sword

Ketis was already a powerful killing machine by herself.

Even if those elite pescans managed to gather and surround her from multiple angles, she would have been able to figure out a way to break out of the encirclement and turn the tables against her formidable opponents.

It just would have taken a lot of time, effort and risk in order to solve these latest problems.

Now that Lucky had made his move, everything became much easier!

Having fought alongside each other several times before, Ketis and Lucky had long developed a tacit understanding on how to coordinate their actions.

Ketis ostentatiously made her presence known and attracted much of the attention of the enemy. This created many easy opportunities for Lucky to slip through the cracks and attack the opposing soldiers when their focus was directed elsewhere!

It was a familiar dynamic and one that worked like a charm. The swordmaster and the gem cat continually mowed over one alien after another with their deadly talents.

The only pity was that Lucky found himself unable to phase through the thick transphasic stone floor. This made it a bit harder for the cat to sneak up on enemies undetected.

Fortunately, the cat was much smaller than the humans the pescans were targeting, so Lucky still managed to use the surrounding cover to get close to his next targets.

"Meow!"

"Cut!"

None of the aliens in their path lasted long enough to hinder the pair too much. It was only after they started to approach the immobilized tank that they encountered more organized opposition.

It appeared that the pescan commanders had taken notice of the lone human and her pet rampaging in their midst!

Just as Ketis and Lucky approached a squad of pescan troopers that were coated in a different color than usual, the swordmaster abruptly altered her course!

"Evade!"

Her warning gave Lucky enough time to fly out of the way before an explosive blast engulfed the place where they were about to walk over.

More attacks struck in the general direction of the pair, forcing them to split up in an attempt to reduce the intensity of the incoming attacks.

Four metal giants revealed themselves through the debris of the structures that used to obstruct their vision.

"The intelligence reports said nothing about this model of pescan battle suits!"

The newcomers towered over every other human or pescan combatant. Their height approached four meters while their bulk was much more considerable.

Their greater sizes imbued them with lots more power. Not only were the weak points in their armor covered by thick plating without exception, they also mounted several more weapon systems onto their forms, including ones that could attack behind their backs!

Ketis quietly cursed. "These giant battle suits are too difficult to take down at close range."

He could see that every giant alien trooper was armed with a shotgun-like transphasic cannon.

The coverage of these devastating shotguns was so wide that Ketis would hardly be able to evade them if she got caught in their cones.

Though the firing rate of these weapons were awfully slow, all four of these giants knew how to cover for each other!

"What I wouldn't give to have a missile. Even a grenade is fine!"

What she truly wanted was her Bloodsinger and her true suit of combat armor. She would have been able to dismantle them one way or another if she had her best equipment at hand.

She should have learned a lesson from Ves and form a habit of carrying her own combat gear around!

Ketis knew that if they managed to survive all of this, she and her fellow Larkinsons would definitely change their ways. If even a planet as well-defended as Davute could turn into a crisis-ridden danger zone, then no other place was truly safe!

"Lucky! Are you alright, buddy?!"

"Meow meow!"

"We need to take out these giants first before they can threaten the others. Let's find a way to get close!"

"Meow...!"

The pescans that had been waiting for her arrivals worked together to put her under pressure through the use of increasingly overwhelming firepower.

"Ah!"

Ketis winced as one of the powerful transphasic energy weapons mounted on one of the battle suits had clipped her armored leg.

She anticipated the attack in advance, but found herself unable to evade it because she would place her body in the way of deadlier attacks!

Too many enemies were targeting her at the moment. It took all of her effort to test and exceed the limitations of her borrowed suit of combat armor.

Even if it was designed with moderate maneuverability in mind, its servos had never been designed to perform so many powerful and nimble movements in such a short span of time.

She knew exactly how much abuse they could take, and she understood clearly that they would fail her within a minute if she kept stressing to such an extent!

The aliens had wisened up at this time. Not all of them fired their weapons at Ketis even if that would make it likelier to score a hit on her body.

At least two of the giants and a third of the other pescan soldiers were keeping their eye out for the appearance of a certain mechanical cat.

Lucky did not dare to dash forward rashly, especially when the aliens had deliberately blasted all of the surrounding cover away.

The pescans realized that all of these obstacles benefited their current opponents a lot more than themselves!

TZZZ!

Three powerful transphasic laser beams seared the position that Ketis was in, forcing her to make an ungainly roll in order to evade all of them at the same time.

This left her unable to evade the shotgun blast that one of the giant suits fired in her direction!
