Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
Due to Wang Caibaoju's AoE cleansing effect, its killing power against artillery fire and bullets was extremely significant, with nearly every shot neutralizing several of the opponent's.
Furthermore, in terms of firing speed, Wang Cai was far superior to the Maginot Line.
After all, turrets and firearms required reloading, while Wang Cai could completely ignore this, unleashing a barrage of firepower.
It was only fortunate that the Maginot Line had more turrets under its control, otherwise, it would likely have been blown to pieces by Wang Cai upon initial contact.
"What, you want to win by trading blows with me?!"
"Then bring it on!"
"When it comes to stationary output, I, Petrey, am genuinely not afraid of anyone!"
Petrey gritted his teeth and once again manipulated his Maginot Line to raise more turrets from below.
"He's really going all out, isn't he..."
"But you don't think I'm the same as you, do you? Relying on just one method to organize an attack?"
Lin Ran chuckled.
Then, with a leap off the tip of his toe, without canceling the Wang Cai behind him, he rapidly closed in on Petrey with his main body.
Petrey sneered:
"You don't know a damn thing!"
"Mixing too many flashy techniques is useless. Only by adhering to one's true heart and pushing one method to the extreme is the most powerful path of cultivation!"
"Let me show you properly what an experience ultimate defense and bombardment truly is!"
"You still want to get close and take me down? Dream on!"
"Fortress... Disassemble!"
With Petrey's final shout, the Maginot Line, which had originally formed a long line like a Great Wall, instantly shattered into pieces.
They all seemed to transform into intelligent, automated mini-robots and drones, scattering like a starry sky.
Some spread their wings and flew into the air, while others sprouted treads and moved on the ground.
And it was precisely at this moment that Lin Ran, carrying the continuously firing Wang Cai, charged into the Maginot Line.
Thus, these scattered mini-machines immediately, at their fastest speed, constructed a sphere of steel with Lin Ran at its center.
"Heh, surrounded, aren't you..."
"Pay the price for your overconfidence..."
"Fire! Fire! Bombard me fiercely!"
Petrey, flying suspended in the air within a translucent white light barrier, appeared very excited, already envisioning Lin Ran being concentratedly bombed by his layered encirclement.
However, inside this sphere, Lin Ran seemed even happier, smiling:
"Mmm, I forgot to tell you, I'm truly sorry..."
"Actually, I particularly like it when people surround me right in the center!"
"This not only allows me to experience the feeling of being the center of attention but also brings a sense of enclosed, suffocating beauty..."
"Of course, most importantly, I can finally unleash this skill without any waste!"
"Shin-Ra-Tensei!"
Lin Ran, with his hands clasped together, unleashed this Almighty Push with all his might after a brief charge.
Although a casually cast Almighty Push could not achieve the terrifying effect of Almighty Push, it was still the product of Lin Ran's full effort and brief charge, and its effect was still quite significant.
The flying artillery fire within this iron sphere immediately lost its flames and clamor, severed on the spot by an unknown force.
This feeling was like a painstakingly carved tofu sword being brutally smashed by a wooden stick, a dramatic contrast.
Of course, the effect of Almighty Push did not stop there.
This single Almighty Push also shattered the sphere of steel that Petrey had painstakingly assembled.
Those dense mini-robots and drones also flew outward as if they had lost control.
After several observations and actual combat experience, Lin Ran had basically grasped the true effect of this so-called Maginot Line.
Petrey's talent ability was likely to create countless components of steel and machinery imbued with magical power, using them to assemble one powerful autonomous weapon after another.
It was like using individual building blocks to stack a castle or a fortress...
However, these autonomous weapons were relatively less flexible compared to the traditional summoned beasts or puppets of many summoners or puppeteers, and their clumsiness could be clearly felt from their various movements.
Lin Ran did not know if this was due to Petrey's magic power not being strong enough, or if it was an inherent flaw of the talent itself.
Of course, from the opponent's perspective, Lin Ran did not need to understand it so deeply; he only needed to know some of his basic characteristics.
For example, Petrey, whose table had been temporarily flipped, could no longer play with "building blocks."
To continue organizing an offensive, he had to retrieve all those "building blocks" using his magic power.
After all, the number of "building blocks" was not inexhaustible.
To contend with a strong enemy like Lin Ran, Petrey had already deployed almost all his "building blocks."
At this moment, with them being blown away, it could be said that Petrey had lost all offensive capabilities.
Amaterasu!
Moonwalk!
Lin Ran naturally would not let such a good opportunity slip by. He immediately unfolded his Amaterasu Wings and stepped on the air, ascending directly towards Petrey, who was covered by the light barrier in the sky.
This sudden change in pace caused Petrey to panic.
However, upon realizing that he had an invincible turtle shell as a fallback, he quickly calmed down, directly ignoring Lin Ran charging at him, and began to communicate with the scattered "building blocks."
"Maginot, reconstruct for me!"
"You are all proud nobles of the Rooster Country, show me the attitude of nobles..."
"Let the whole world witness the power of our impregnable fortress!"
"Full output, no need for defense..."
"My light barrier will protect me!"
He still dared to look down on me?
Lin Ran's lips curved slightly. The tomoe in his right eye, the Eternal Mangekyo, spun wildly. After predicting with Kenbunshoku, he locked his magic power onto the point that Petrey was bound to pass through.
Kamui!
As expected, a spatial vortex appeared on the eggshell-like light barrier enveloping Petrey.
As soon as this seemingly colorless vortex appeared, it absorbed all the light from the "eggshell."
Crackle!
The sound of cracking immediately drew the attention of everyone present.
They were surprised to find that this hard turtle shell, which had disgusted them countless times, was already showing signs of collapse under Lin Ran's attack...
