He activated the miniature thrusters behind his mechanical exoskeleton to retreat, unleashing a barrage of rounds from his Gauss Rifle towards the Ape-man's head.
The Gauss Rifle is an advanced weapon based on electromagnetic principles; its tungsten-cored projectiles can penetrate 400 millimeters of homogeneous armor.
The Piercer Gauss Rifle Feng Jun held had a 40-round magazine, and even a Leopard 2 tank in the current world would not be able to withstand its fire at close range.
When the pale blue projectiles shot towards the Ape-man's skull, the Ape-man merely raised its right arm to block its head, and the tungsten-cored projectiles were all blocked, some even ricocheting off the nearby wall.
"Is it the armor on his arm? Not an energy shield."
Originally, Feng Jun thought it was the black armor on the Ape-man's body, but before the bullets hit the Ape-man's arm, Feng Jun saw a faint yellow shield appear on the surface of the Ape-man's body.
"Damn it! When did monkeys start using energy shields?"
Feng Jun landed on the ground and steadied himself.
Although the Ape-man in front of him was incredibly powerful and had an energy shield of unknown technology, as his heartbeat intensified, Feng Jun's eyes gradually turned crimson.
The shoulder-mounted laser cannon and rocket launcher were reloaded and rose again, firing ammunition at the Ape-man once more.
Since this Ape-man was tough, he would keep shooting until it died; after all, Feng Jun had plenty of ammunition.
A hint of impatience showed in the Ape-man's eyes as he tightened his grip on the heavy hammer in his left hand again.
While raising his right arm to block the lasers and miniature rockets fired by Feng Jun, he pressed a button on the giant hammer with his left hand, and blue currents began to flicker on the metal hammerhead.
"Human!"
"I! Guma!"
"You, die!"
After speaking a few simple words, the Ape-man charged directly towards Feng Jun's fire; Feng Jun's shots had no lethal effect on his body.
"Roar~" Accompanied by the Ape-man's roar, the giant hammer in his left hand suddenly split apart, the hammerhead separating from the handle to become a meteor hammer, which he swung violently at Feng Jun.
Feng Jun had been maintaining distance from the Ape-man; from its size, he knew he couldn't be its match in close combat.
Feng Jun remained vigilant, pouring firepower onto the Ape-man from the safest possible distance.
"Too fast!"
Feng Jun was performing a maneuvering action backward, but this hammer strike came too quickly to fully evade; he could only try his best to dodge.
Twisting his body desperately, the mechanical exoskeleton naturally had defensive capabilities, but as an exoskeleton, it naturally couldn't provide full-spectrum defense like powered armor.
He twisted his body to turn his chest to the side, trying his best to let the armor on his back take the blow.
The suddenly separated giant hammer left Feng Jun no time to react; the hammerhead turned into a meteor, striking directly at Feng Jun.
A sharp, deafening clang of metal echoed in the air, accompanied by dazzling sparks.
Feng Jun took the full force of the hammer blow, and the current from the hammerhead instantly transmitted to Feng Jun's mechanical exoskeleton, burning out its circuits.
The mechanical exoskeleton was sent flying, crashing heavily against a wall several meters away before falling down.
"Guma~ win.
Human~ die."
The Ape-man said a few stiff words, then retrieved the flying hammerhead and turned to walk out the door.
As the Ape-man's leader, he was very confident that no human could withstand his previous blow and survive, even if the human was wearing a mechanical exoskeleton.
Feng Jun was not directly hit by the hammerhead; seeing that he truly couldn't avoid the incoming giant hammer, Feng Jun activated his Crossing at the moment of impact, returning to his home in the current world.
"So painful!"
The moment Feng Jun landed, a searing pain shot through his left shoulder; if he had been even a second slower, he would surely have died.
However, anger consumed Feng Jun's mind.
Without time to examine the injury on his shoulder, Feng Jun rushed directly to the powered armor placed nearby.
Just as the Ape-man reached the factory door, Feng Jun, who had already changed into his powered armor, traversed back.
The powered armor's combat weight exceeded two tons, and when it landed on the concrete floor, the entire factory vibrated.
Hearing the sound behind him, the Ape-man quickly turned his head to look back, and a two-meter-tall powered armor had indeed appeared behind him.
Before the Ape-man could react, Feng Jun let out an angry roar and controlled the powered armor to charge at the Ape-man.
The six-barreled Gatling gun in his left hand poured explosive rounds onto the Ape-man, and the rocket thrusters on the powered armor's back opened, using the acceleration from the rear thrust to directly control the powered armor to ram into the Ape-man.
"Bang~" The sound of metal colliding echoed as the Ape-man raised the giant hammer in his hand to block in front of him.
All the explosive rounds fired by Feng Jun were completely blocked by the shield generated by his armor.
Feng Jun knew that using ranged weapons wouldn't break its shield, so he simply charged in close, intending to kill it in hand-to-hand combat.
With a resounding "boom" from the impact, the Ape-man was knocked backward, sliding.
The heavy powered armor was like a hammer striking a hard rock; every backward step left deep imprints on the ground, and gravel scattered.
"Die, die."
Feng Jun was almost losing his sanity.
The powered armor's arms were raised high, smashing down onto the Ape-man's back.
The Ape-man did not fall; his legs were firmly braced on the ground, and he lowered his head, taking the powered armor's smash directly on his back.
Finally, after retreating several steps, the Ape-man stabilized himself.
This was Feng Jun's first time operating powered armor.
Although there was an intelligent assistance system inside, Feng Jun was not proficient in using the powered armor and could only perform simple swings and charging movements.
Inside the powered armor's helmet, Feng Jun stared furiously at the Ape-man pinned beneath him.
However, the powered armor's thrust speed had been pushed to the maximum, yet the Ape-man in front of him stubbornly withstood the immense impact, not moving an inch no matter how much Feng Jun accelerated.
The Ape-man named Guma slowly raised his head.
This suddenly appearing powered armor had caught him off guard.
Although he didn't know how this iron lump had suddenly appeared in the factory, he had to escape as quickly as possible now.
Guma's waist and legs suddenly exerted force, and a massive brute force instantly pushed the powered armor back a fraction.
Using this opening, Guma sidestepped and escaped from the powered armor's oppression.
Clang~
Guma, having pulled himself free, immediately swung the giant hammer in his hand, striking the powered armor's head.
Inside the armor, Feng Jun's ears were ringing; even with the powered armor's protection, he could feel the terrifying force of that blow.
Feng Jun was uncontrollably propelled forward several meters before he could stop the powered armor.
Before Feng Jun could steady himself, the powered armor's back took another solid hammer blow.
The Ape-man Guma was like an adult teasing a child, constantly circling Feng Jun, repeatedly attacking the powered armor's outer shell with the giant hammer in his hand.
Feng Jun's punches and shots were all dodged by his agile movements.
Although this powered armor could indeed threaten his life, even the best weapon could only unleash its power with the right person.
The pilot of this powered armor was like a hastily deployed rookie, completely unable to utilize the armor's capabilities.
Attack after attack missed, and the powered armor's internal system began to issue warnings.
The system continuously reported the extent of external armor damage; if this continued, Feng Jun would be beaten to death inside the powered armor.
Feng Jun had now given up on attacking.
He originally wanted to use the thrusters on his back to quickly create distance, but the Ape-man Guma instantly saw through his intention.
During his continuous attacks on the powered armor, he had consciously focused on the thruster locations on the powered armor's back.
By the time Feng Jun wanted to activate the thrusters, the system displayed, "Rear thruster cover damaged, unable to open thrusters."
The Ape-man's attack frequency grew higher and higher, and multiple joints of the powered armor began to sustain damage, causing its overall flexibility to decrease.
Feng Jun's speed in operating the powered armor to throw punches began to decline.
Not only that, the impact force of the giant hammer was transmitted inside the powered armor, and Feng Jun's internal organs were already starting to be bruised.
The system's alarm continued to ring in Feng Jun's ears.
Feng Jun, consumed by rage, gradually began to lose control.
His brain, which had retained a sliver of rationality, began to be dominated by the desire for slaughter.
The speed of his punches and attacks began to slow, but as Feng Jun lost his rationality, his vision underwent a strange change.
A large amount of blood rushed into his brain, and some previously unused brain regions began to activate; Feng Jun's pineal gland in his brain began to activate.
From Feng Jun's perspective, everything around him began to slow down.
His vision began to enter a state similar to bullet time.
The surrounding scene suddenly plunged into a surreal transformation.
Time seemed to stretch, every millisecond meticulously displayed before his eyes.
Originally fleeting movements were dissected into a series of discontinuous, almost stagnant frames.
The Ape-man's swinging giant hammer sliced through the air at a visibly slow speed; every point on its trajectory seemed to be fixed.
Gradually, Feng Jun could keep up with the Ape-man's axe-wielding movements, and thus could narrowly avoid the Ape-man's attacks.
Guma quickly noticed this.
As one of the Ape-man's leaders, he had fought humans who entered Ape-man territory more than once.
This was not his first time fighting these powered armors; he was intimately familiar with the weaknesses of these iron lumps.
In terms of combat skill, no human could defeat him yet.
However, just when he thought the battle was about to end, the human in front of him was actually able to dodge his attacks.
An angry expression appeared on Guma's face.
A mere human combined with powered armor—he didn't know how many of these iron cans he had dismantled.
He greatly enjoyed the feeling of prying open the powered armor's helmet and personally crushing the human pilot inside.
Feng Jun once again dodged the Ape-man's returning giant hammer, and seized the opportunity to take a step forward, extending a Chainsword from his right arm, narrowly missing a gap in the Ape-man's waist armor.
Guma twisted his waist to dodge Feng Jun's last strike.
He looked at the human in front of him with some shock.
In just a few minutes, this human had adapted to his attacks, and the sword thrust just now had aimed directly for an old wound on his waist, which he had narrowly avoided being stabbed.
There was a gap in Guma's waist armor, concealing an old wound Guma had sustained from fighting Mutants.
Although this wound had healed, if it were stabbed again, it would certainly cause the recently healed wound to rupture again.
