Chapter 2746 - 916: Drowned in Midnight
Murphy didn’t choose to make his appearance at such a crucial moment in the battle on purpose, even though he has had a similar bad habit before, but this time it truly wasn’t his fault for being late.
The main reason was that the command array of the War Marshal Power Armor had undergone two component swaps prior, causing Murphy’s action to be delayed from the schedule.
The five external enhancement modules of this power armor had already been sent to the battlefield in advance, and the armor faithfully carried out Murphy’s previous orders, first equipping the Assault Modules for the Hunter Float-gun components.
This gear consists of an externally mounted weapon pack that stores and charges, combined with six shield-type hovering cannon platforms, which, once equipped, significantly enhanced Murphy’s efficiency in hunting the Wolf Disaster Lord to match the superior combat capability of this power armor.
Especially thrilling was the sensation when the six floating cannons executed a multi-directional barrage of fire controlled by Murphy’s will.
Unfortunately, though, the Assault Floating Cannon components were designed for rapid breaching and advancement.
To ensure flexibility and versatility, these components sacrificed some firepower, making them unsuitable for dealing with demigod entities like Silver Wolf. Therefore, based on the power armor control program’s recommendation, Murphy conducted a second equipment swap before rushing to Old Su Head’s aid.
It was the "Twin War Hammers" strike modules that he’s now equipped on the armor.
The appearance of this gear is quite ostentatious.
Its main part is still an armed backpack connected to the back of the power armor, but on both sides, it extends with two oversized external melee strike hammers, which are essentially two thick and heavy mechanical arms similar to warhammers, maintaining a five-finger structure to ensure that this external component can be paired with more destructive melee weapons if necessary.
The specifications of these dual hammers are extremely extravagant. After adaptation, they rest like two gorilla mechanical arms on either side of the power armor, and when not activated, they can even be used as support points for the armor on the ground, making the War Marshal Weapons look intimidating and bizarre like a "four-armed monster".
The strike module, through its unique design and power-pressurized structure, can fully exploit the power advantage of the power armor up to 50 points. Unfortunately, its energy consumption is equally astonishing. When connected to the power armor and in full "Destructive Combo" mode, Murphy must activate backup energy to maintain the full output mode of the strike module.
Yet the terrifying energy consumption brings equally terrifying melee destructive power, as evidenced by the fiercely crawling Silver Wolf on the battlefield soaked with blood rain, with her neck blown apart and skull cracked.
Clearly, these modules were precisely designed to allow the power armor to engage in close combat with demigods.
Helsun got up.
Enemies surrounded her from all directions. The Frost Dwarf Lord, Vampire General, and Shani, who was nearly killed, also fell from the sky with Triss’s support, and those elusive Helms Cavalry had just assisted the giant snake and Undying Spirits in taking down the last Wolf Disaster Lord, revealing themselves on this battlefield of demigod confrontation.
Dressed in green-striped combat hunter attire, they appeared neat, tidy, and filled with group intimidation power, each carrying specially-made battle bows and crossbows, some with firearms, but most eye-catching was their beret-like decorations.
These guys were terrifying hunters, adept in mounted archery.
Though they suffered losses, from the start of the battle to now, the number of Wolf Disaster Lords slain in their traps reached as many as four. Despite one of their Golden Leaders being nearly killed in battle by Silver Wolf, the loss seemed acceptable compared to their impressive achievements.
Eris, having previously had her neck snapped, wobbled as she blocked Helsun’s last escape route with the assistance of the Endless One’s Power of Time.
That Black Winter Wolf truly had a hard day today, dying three times... Yet it can’t be denied that without this thick-skinned guy stalling Silver Wolf head-on, Old Su Head might have been shamefully remembered in history as the fallen deity.
A death trap specifically for Silver Wolf had been formed, with the hero playing the main role being beyond question.
The heavy Crimson Power Armor strode forward, with Murphy bringing along weapons.
The War Marshal’s original mechanical hands held Crimson Witch’s Chainsaw Sword and the blood-light entangled Tooth of Filth, while the two giant heavy fists bore the Silver Wolf’s blood and brain matter but did not have melee weapons loaded.
One reason is that the compatible weapons for this gear hadn’t been crafted during the Eden District explosion.
On the other hand, the feeling of punching with big fists is actually pretty nice, especially when those powerful fists are truly indestructible. Murphy has experienced how cool the invincible aura of Jotaro must be.
Well, with indestructible fists ready, now all that’s missing is the time-stopping ability of "Za Warudo"... Wait, Mannis the Saucy Snake could surely fill in for that!
Isn’t time-stopping just a trivial matter?
For the Endless Ones capable of reversing time, it’s a piece of cake.
"State your last words, giant wolf."
Murphy’s slightly altered deep voice came through the power armor’s speaker system.
Though he brought the Tooth of Filth, he didn’t use it, simply planting it into the ground, as if mocking The Master of Hunting up close.
